Billionaire's Hidden Princess by Alegna Ciee (tharntype novel english .TXT) 📕
He, the owner of the country's richest conglomerate.
The nation's husband.
The man of every girl's dreams.
Just what was it about Leticia Selene that made Livius Apollon say that?
She, a penniless college student.
A mere fashion intern.
A girl with social anxiety.
"You achieved greater than that, though. Why is making me smile more fulfilling?"
All she did was approach him at his worst - when he's dumped by his crush due to how shabby he looked that time. She helped him do a make-over to win her over.
Little did she know that he's this handsome CEO who was just in disguise.
Now that they're dating, he doesn't ever get enough of her.
"That's because everytime you smile, I feel like I don't need anything else... Only you, princess."

Leticia has never received such a tremendous amount of attention in her entire years of living.
It just happened that after Livius introduced her to everyone, people started walking up to her in an attempt to make acquaintance. Unlike what she expected, though, they really didn’t pay any mind to her background or where she came from -
At least that’s what Leticia thought.
Without her knowing, Livius just really didn’t let anyone have enough time to converse with her. That’s why no one had the chance to ask about something like her background.
It’s not only because he’s aware that she’s just acting tough and repressing her anxiety from escalating once more. He knows this since her grip on his hand is tense and uneasy the entire time.
The reason why he keeps everyone from getting in contact with her, especially bachelors like him, is because this is not a part of his plans at all.
All Livius wanted was to introduce Leticia to the world – as his girlfriend, that is. But he didn’t like it when others would try to get close to her.
He didn’t like those indicative stares that men would throw at her. He couldn’t stand how most of them would approach her with obvious intentions.
At least for Livius, their motivations are obvious. He’s been in this uppercrust society for too long now, after all. He’s already good at reading people with just one glance.
As usual, everyone’s in a frenzy when something closely related to him comes up. They’re after his attention the most here. Leticia wouldn’t probably get half the attention she’s receiving now if it wasn’t for the fact that she’s someone dear to him.
“That notion – I would accept. It’s better that they’re coming after her because they’re onto me – rather than them coming after her because they like her or something,” Livius thought with a scowl marring his frame.
He’s now inside the comfort room, taking a brief moment for himself. All that talking and walking around really exhausted him even though he’d already been doing this thing since forever.
He couldn’t take too long, though. His girlfriend is waiting for him back at the event hall. While he did make sure that she’s comfortably hiding from the crowd – sitting near the backroom where no one would usually go to, he still felt uneasy for leaving her even just in a bit.
With that in mind, Livius proceeded to tread the path back to the event hall.
Leticia, on the other hand, is being the obedient girlfriend that she is.
At this moment, she’s s sitting still on what seems like a separate lounge dedicated for people who want to have longer conversations in private. Her current spot is near to the backroom, so she’s confident that no one would drop by there.
“Good evening, milady.”
That’s all until this man decided to do the opposite of that belief of hers.
Leticia jolts in surprise the moment an attractive gentleman with spruce ruddy red hair and celeste blue eyes suddenly makes an entrance. He appears to be sharing the same age as Livius – older than her and has quite a prepossessing aura that strikes awe and respect to anyone.
As much as she wants to flee from this situation, she knows that it’s impudent. Now that almost everyone at the party venue knows her, everything she does will bounce back on Livius.
“G-Good evening… S-Sir…” she managed to greet back, though too timidly to her liking.
“My, don’t be nervous. I apologize for taking you aback…” he trailed off before stretching out his arm to her for a handshake.
“My name’s Malcolm Rupert, by the way. I’m the CEO of Rupert Entertainment Agency… I believe you’re Ms. Leticia Selene, President Apollon’s girlfriend, is that right?”
At that, she just simply nods in reply.
She somehow feels a bit unsettled around this person. The fact that he approached her all of the sudden was already enough reason to feel that way, especially since nobody was supposed to notice her there.
But then again, he might have just happened to chance upon her. As long as she doesn’t humiliate Livius or get into trouble, she thinks she’ll be able to repress her anxiety for a bit longer either.
“That’s quite a surprise, you know… President Apollon has never had a girlfriend, though his eyes did get caught by a few ladies in the past,” Malcolm mused out loud, much to her surprise.
“What do you mean?” Leticia found herself asking, curiosity visibly piqued.
“Oh, you didn’t know…? The President was said to have his eyes on a certain lady every once in a while. But for some reason, he never got to date any of them, and before everyone knew it, he’s already onto another one… Isn’t that strange? With his wealth and looks alone, any woman would be falling head over heels for him. But why didn’t he end up with anyone, then…? Did he get rejected? Most probably not.”
Leticia looks like she has heard the most surprising discovery she has about Livius, her eyes growing wide like saucers in nonplus as she silently processes Malcolm’s words.
