Becoming The Billionaire's Fake Wife
“All this time, I was just a mere substitute to you? A replacement for someone you lost?”
“It’s not that simple, Sheila. I—”
“Don’t! I trusted you. Every embrace, every word, the heartfelt feelings—it was all for her, wasn’t it? Did you ever love me, Andrew? Did you ever feel something for me? Tell me!”
“Sheila, I……Sorry……”
*********************
Sheila found out her boyfriend cheated on her and then lost her job. Just when she thought things couldn't get worse, she realizes how naive she still was. Her father and stepmother, her so-called family, forced her to marry a stranger, and treated her like a bargain item at a mall sale.
On the other hand, Andrew's father tried to pressure him into an engagement by threatening his inheritance. Andrew felt a sense of powerlessness as well as amusement, as he didn't care about the inheritance; he had already made a name for himself as a successful and feared business magnate.
But when he saw Sheila's smiling face, Andrew's blood froze for a moment, and his eyes were filled with shock, doubt, nostalgia, and a hint of tenderness that he hadn't even noticed. He thought that maybe this was a chance given to him by fate, and this time he had to grab it no matter what, but he didn't know how the decision he made at this moment would change his life.

Chapter: Invitation at the hospitalSimeon’s POV I stepped into the room, letting the door close softly behind me. “Sheila,” I said softly, drawing their attention. Sheila turned her head, a small smile forming on her lips. “Simeon. Hi.” Mia also turned and stood up to hug me warmly. “Simeon,” she exclaimed and held my hand, bringing me closer to Sheila. “How are you feeling, Sheila?” I asked, stepping closer. “I’m fine now,” she replied, her voice steady but subdued. “Thanks to you.” Mia turned to me, her eyes brimming with gratitude. “Thank you, Simeon,” she said earnestly. “For saving my daughter... for saving me. If anything had happened to my daughter... I don’t think I would have survived it.” I shook my head lightly. “Nothing will happen to either of you. And it wasn’t just me. Andrew deserves just as much credit. He mobilized his men and put everything into the rescue.” At the mention of Andrew, Sheila’s smile faltered. Her expression grew distant, her gaze dropping to her hands. I sighed qui

Chapter: Silent UnderstandingAndrew's POVI stepped back as Sheila’s mother burst into the room, calling her name with tears in her eyes. She enveloped Sheila in a tight hug, her voice shaking with relief.Without saying a word, I quietly turned and stepped outside, easing the door shut behind me to allow them their mother-daughter moment. I leaned against the doorframe, letting my head rest lightly against it as I closed my eyes. The ache in my chest felt heavier than I’d expected. I knew Sheila would reject me. In fact, I’d prepared myself for it—or so I thought. I knew I’d hurt her deeply, more than I could ever make up for. But even with all that knowledge, hearing her say those words... “I can’t accept your love.”...it cut deeper than I imagined. Her question kept replaying in my head, like a haunting echo I couldn’t silence. “Did you realize your love for me now because Evelyn confessed her love for Simeon?” The truth was indeed hard to tell. It had taken Evelyn’s confession to rip away the blinde

Chapter: Love ConfessionSheila's POV When I opened my eyes, the bright white walls and the sterile smell of disinfectant immediately told me where I was. The hospital.....I was in the hospital.I tried to move, but a sharp pain throbbed in my head, forcing me to groan softly. Turning my head carefully to the side, I saw someone seated beside me. Their arms were folded on the edge of the bed, and their head was bowed down, resting on their forearms. The figure looked tired, as if sleep had come to them after a long, restless night. My vision was blurry, making it hard to see who it was. I blinked a few times, but it didn’t help much, so I used my hand to gently wipe my eyes. Once my vision cleared, I reached out and lightly touched the person’s arm. The figure stirred, jerking up in an instant. Andrew’s face appeared, his features haggard and his hair slightly disheveled. He looked like he hadn’t slept properly in days. As soon as he saw me, he started shouting in his half-asleep state. "Doctor! D

Chapter: Redemption in BloodSimeon's POVI couldn’t believe my eyes. Evelyn! Out of nowhere. A second ago, she was gone, claiming a migraine. Now, she was here—staggering, falling forward. My stomach twisted painfully as realization struck. She had thrown herself in front of Andrew, taking the bullet meant for him. “Evelyn!” Her name ripped from my throat, my voice hoarse with panic. I ran toward her, knees buckling as I dropped beside her crumpled form. Blood bloomed across her back, seeping through her clothes. The world became a blur. The distant shouts, the chaos—they faded into white noise. All I could see was Evelyn. “Stay with me,” I pleaded, pressing my trembling hands against her wound to stop the bleeding. My voice cracked as I helplessly watched her blood pooling beneath her. “Someone call the ambulance! Or get the car! Please hurry!” I yelled frantically. Andrew, having regained his senses from the shock, stumbled to her side and knelt beside her, his face ashen and stricken. “Evelyn…

Chapter: Allies or Foes 3Andrew’s POV“Move,” Gina said coldly, pointing the gun in my direction. Simeon’s arms were stretched wide in front of me. He didn’t even flinch. “No,” he said firmly, his gaze steady. “If you want to kill him, you’ll have to kill me first.” The words jolted me. Of all people, Simeon? I couldn’t understand it. The same man I had spent years resenting, the same brother I had accused of betrayal and despised for years… was now risking his life for me? “What are you doing?” I muttered behind him, confused by his actions. He glanced at me over his shoulder, his expression calm. “Saving your life,” he said casually, as though it were the simplest thing in the world. “Why?” I demanded, the question slipping out before I could stop it. He smirked faintly, his voice dropping so only I could hear. “Maybe I’m tired of being the villain,” he said. “Maybe I want to be the hero for once.” His words sounded light, almost teasing, but I knew better. Behind that smirk was something de

Chapter: Allies or Foes 2 Gina’s POVI stared at my son, Simeon, my hands outstretched, my voice soft, almost pleading. I had hoped—no, prayed—that he would see reason. That he would join me, and together we would destroy the Walkers. The same family that ripped him from my arms, turned him against me, and left me to rot in despair. But when he muttered “no,” a quiet, cutting rejection, my heart clenched. I took a step forward, trying to convince him. “Simeon, please. This is our chance. Don’t you see? The Walkers have torn us apart for too long. We can bring them down together.” For a moment, I thought I saw something flicker in his eyes—hesitation, perhaps—but it was gone in an instant. “No,” he repeated firmly. The word hit me like a slap. I blinked, struggling to keep my composure. “No? Simeon, I’m your mother. I’ve fought for this—for YOU—all these years. Don’t you understand? Everything I’ve done has been for us.” He shook his head, his gaze cold and unrelenting. “You haven't done anything fo
