Chapter 110 Living With The Five Billionaires

Ryan was an aspiring author who dreamed of publishing a book to hook readers. That's why, even though the readers from online reading sites were few, she kept publishing different stories.
Of course, popular books are consistently rated 18. Ryan didn't have the guts to try it, so she stuck writing innocent comedy and romance genres. However, she wasn't lucky enough to get her break.
Sitting in front of the laptop, Ryan read one of the comments from her book.
"The author narrates well, but the plot is too cliche. Then the event is not realistic either."
Ryan felt sad while reading the comments. She took a deep breath and leaned her back against the office chair. She wiped her eyes under her rounded glasses. She looked again at the comments, where only a few had positive feedback.
"Maybe writing is not my line," said the woman who had just passed the boarding exam.
Even though she took an engineering course in college, she didn't want to let go of her dream of becoming a writer and being able to publish at least one work. One of his inspirations to accomplish this was her boyfriend. From business management to culinary, Slyvester took the challenge to achieve his dream.
Ryan looked at the ceiling and reminisced about her beautiful, funny, and thrilling memories in the boarding house.
There were many pranks, drama, humor, and even strange events during those times.
"If only I could turn my life into a story," she chuckled.
The smile on her lips gradually disappeared as she contemplated the thought.
'Right! If they want a realistic story, why don't I write about my experiences in the boarding house?'
Various oppositions formed in her mind. She was sure someone would be angry if she followed the plan. But she was determined to do it.
"I will change their names! Then I will also change the scenes slightly," Ryan defended herself.
Ryan hesitated for a moment before opening her laptop but eventually went ahead and opened the Word document with a grin. "Let's start from the beginning," she said before beginning to type. And so began the romantic comedy story Ryan had created, rated PG and full of humor.
The readers of "Living With the Five Billionaires" are unaware that the story is based on real life, except for those who know Ryan and the five leading men in the story. They also don't know that some of the scenarios in the story may be a bit exaggerated. For example, in Episode 15, Edward (Vincent) and Jules (Ryan) encounter Erban (Terban), blocking their path with a tense expression on his wrinkled face.
"Where are you going? Why are you so dressed up?" Erban asked.
He was aware that the two individuals were headed to the wedding reception. However, his inquiry was not to confirm the truth but to intimidate. It was as if he was insinuating there would be trouble if they didn't follow his plans.
Erban sneered and gestured toward Jules, asking, "Are you seriously attending the event with that scoundrel?" He mockingly pointed towards Jules’ companion, Edward.
"If this is just a joke, please stop. I don't want any trouble and look forward to enjoying the free food. So, let's not be hostile..."
Jules fell silent when Erban shot her with a disapproving look. Despite the unfriendly gaze, Jules detected a hint of concern in his eyes, making her feel like his anger wasn't directed at her but rather at the man she had chosen to accompany her that day.
Jules wondered, "Why is Erban so upset with Edward?"
Erban attempted to initiate a conversation with Jules in a pleading tone, but before he could do so, Edward took charge and warned them that they were running late.
The situation became a struggle for Jules' attention as two men vied for her company.
"Leave alone," Erban snapped and stared at Edward as if, in a moment, he would pull out the sword if he had one.
"We're about to leave, so step aside," replied Edward, who also had no intention of losing. He tightened his grip on Jules and was about to pull her away.
But before he could do that, Erban dropped, "Hey, why are you doing this?"
Edward froze. Why? Why can't he lend Jules' attention to Erban?
Edward frowned when he looked back. "What?"
"Do you like her?" Erban chuckled, smirking.
"Huh?"
"I don't see any other reason besides that you are head over heels for Jules. So do you like her?"
Edward was at a loss for words. He didn't quite understand his emotions, but with Erban's assistance, he was beginning to grasp them better.
"If you're not fond of her," Erban's smile faded, "then release her hand."
Jules was in the middle, trembling with anxiety, as the two striking men locked eyes. She didn't want to believe they were fighting over her, but...
"I don't want to," Edward declared firmly. "I don't want to let go of Jules." He squeezed the hand of the one he was interested in.
Erban gasped in astonishment at what he had just heard.
"What about you?" Edward challenged Erban. "Why do you keep going between us? Are you jealous?"
"..."
"E-Edward, are you nuts?" Jules asked in disbelief.
But Edward ignored her. He continued, "If you're not jealous, let go of her."
Jules looked at Erban, who was blushing while staring at Jules. And then, Jules felt Erban’s grip tightening around her wrist.
"Never. I won't ever let go of Jules," Erban said.
Coming back to reality, one of the reasons why Ryan’s story became famous was the unique tension she delivered in each scenario. And also because it's not 100% from real experience...
"YOU'RE GOING CRAZY!" Terban shouted after reading episode 15 of the book written by Ryan.
Apart from the fact that he couldn't believe that Ryan was able to turn the incident into a dramatic piece, he was furious because...
"WHY, OUT OF THE FIVE OF US, MY NAME SOUNDS CLOSEST TO THE CHARACTER! RYAN, YOU’RE DEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!" Terban vowed to take down the books before the market realized that the ‘Erban’ in the story was him.
