A Contract with the Billionaire Ninety-two: Girls day in
“Good morning, Gretchen,” Amelia greeted in a cheerful voice, striding into the kitchen with a smile on her face. As soon as Gretchen saw her, a warm smile bloomed on her face and she turned away from the cooker to face Amelia who was at the coffee machine, preparing two mugs of coffee.“It’s good to see you again,” Gretchen said, still smiling.It had almost been a week since she’d seen Amelia. Although she worked in the house every day and was always around until the evenings, she hadn’t set eyes on the younger woman. Since the news of her relation to the well-known Chinese businessman, Amelia had been spending all of her days in her room, deep in her gloom and refusing to see anyone.Gretchen could understand her plight and she felt terrible for her. The young woman had been through a lot since she relocated to New York but seeing her looking so cheerful with that big beautiful smile on her face warmed her heart. She was glad that Amelia was gradually returning to her old happy sel

Benjamin Davidson glanced at the Rolex wristwatch on his wrist, a frown marring his face. He’d been at the restaurant for the past ten minutes awaiting Lara’s arrival. After their last meeting failed to hold, she’d contacted him to fix another date but now, she was slacking. As much as he was annoyed by her absence, he was also ready to wait for her because he knew his plans were on the verge of taking off as soon as Lara agreed to the contract marriage he’d proposed.Initially, when she’d told him she wouldn’t be part of his evil plans, Benjamin had been devastated because he didn’t know how to go about it. But while trying to find another solution to his problems, the news of Amelia being Liu Feng-Zhang’s long-lost daughter broke out and at that point, he knew Lara was going to return to him for help. He didn’t need a prophet to tell that Lara was greatly angered and felt cheated from the realization that the same woman that stole the heart of the only man she wanted had turned out

It’s been almost two months since Liu Feng-Zhang released the press release that changed the public’s view of Amelia. The news had finally died down and the paparazzi that had been lurking around Ryan’s home waiting to catch a glimpse of her to get more information out of her had gradually dissolved. Amelia was finally ready to return to her normal life and the first thing she wanted to do was to resume at her new place of work. Despite realizing that she would be working for Jian, her step-brother, she wasn’t phased. After all, he was the only employer that had bothered to interview her for a job, after the countless ones she applied to. She wasn’t going to give it up because of a minor issue. She was also aware that it could bring up new rumors that she’d gotten a job at her family’s company but she didn’t mind. Worse things had been said about her in the past and she was beginning to realize that as long as she was already in the limelight, it was always going to be that way and a

Amelia stepped out of the elevator that led to Jian’s floor, feeling anxious and excited to begin her job. When she’d gotten into the building, she got several awkward stares from some of the employees and she did not doubt that it was because of the recent news but she ignored all of that.As soon as she walked into his assistant’s office, she jumped to her feet and barrelled into her, engulfing her in a hug.“I told you, you’d get the job,” Audrey squealed excitedly and Amelia chuckled, loving the young woman's enthusiasm.She liked Audrey from the very first day she met her and now she was glad she had someone aside from Jian whom she could freely relate with without getting judged for her past or for the rumors that have been spreading about her.“All thanks to your Good Luck wishes,” Amelia responded, wrapping her arms around Audrey before pulling away.“I know right?” she said smugly, wiggling her brows at Amelia who only laughed harder.“I think I’m running late already. Is Jia

Amelia was ecstatic that evening as she returned home from work. She couldn’t wait to share the good news with Ryan. It felt so good knowing she now had siblings. For the first time in her life, the feeling of being all alone has been eliminated. She was so glad that she and Lara had reconciled and her new siblings weren’t against her decision to not accept their father. They understood her feelings and she appreciated that.The moment Ryan stepped into the house, he noticed her radiant smile and it made him smile too. Smith had brought her home earlier because he was still in a meeting by the time she closed from work and he’d missed her dearly.“Hey baby,” he wrapped his arms around her waist, kissing her neck.Amelia was in the kitchen, preparing dinner. She was so excited that she’d given Gretchen a day off and the woman had decided to spend it in the company of Dora. They’d both gone out for ice cream, leaving Amelia to be alone.“Hi,” Amelia responded cheerfully, as she stirred

The news of Lara and Benjamin’s sudden relationship was still trending heavily on the media and has gotten to Adeline, Benjamin’s mom. At first, when she’d come across it and the pictures of her son and Ryan’s rumored love interest, the daughter of the well-known Chinese billionaire, she’d thought it was mere rumor. But her doubts were cleared when she came across more pictures of her son and Lara, dining at different restaurants and acting like couples.Adeline was a bit disturbed, wondering what Benjamin was up to. The last time they’d spoken, he was actively working on his plans to take his rightful position in the affairs of the family from Ryan. What was he doing with Lara Zhang? A girl that was Ryan’s leftovers? Has Benjamin lost his mind?All of these questions bugged Adeline as she saw more photographs of her son and Lara trending on the news. She became so disturbed that she decided to call him, hoping he’d have a reasonable explanation for his actions and truly, she wasn’t

Amelia and Ryan’s wedding preparations have spun off after the family dinner where they revealed the date to the family. Everything had been moving fast since then and there were just two weeks left before the day. Amelia was giddy with nerves and excitement as she couldn’t wait to finally tie the knot with Ryan, the man of her dreams. Ryan had offered to hire a wedding planner to take care of the event, down to her wedding dress but she’d refused as she wanted to be the planner. She didn’t want anything extravagant and she knew a planner would do just that because Ryan would pay heavily for it and her opinions wouldn’t matter.It was the weekend and she was out with Sylvia, and Lara to buy her wedding dress from one of New York’s popular designers. Amelia had previously scheduled an appointment with the designer before arriving at the large store.As soon as she arrived with Sylvia and Lara, the woman, Mrs Gina Campbell, who had been discussing with one of her sales personnel immedia

He was also currently in London for that purpose and has apologized dearly to Amelia but she didn’t mind. At first, when she’d decided to send him an invite to her wedding, she didn’t know how he’d take it, considering they had been together before Ryan stumbled back into her life and forcefully claimed her.

A Contract with the Billionaire Epilogue: A new beginning?
Epilogue: A new beginning?Amelia stood at the entrance of the magnificent church building, dressed in her flowing wedding dress, with the transparent lacy material of her veil covering her face, and Liu holding onto her arm.Two months after her visit to his home, he got well and the preparations for her second wedding ceremony began. She’d asked him to walk her down the aisle and Liu had been honored.“Ready?” he asked, flashing her a loving smile and Amelia grinned in response.“Always,” Surprising her, he leaned in and gently brushed his lips to her temple.“I’m glad I made it to this day, and that you asked me to do this,”Tears welled up in her eyes, amidst her smile but she blinked them away. Deep down, she wished her mom was there too but it was all in the past now and she had a bright future ahead of her and intended to fully enjoy it without her past holding her back.“I’m glad too,” she breathed out in a barely audible voice but Liu headed in and he gently patted her back.
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and fifteen: One family
“Are you sure you’re ready to do this?” Ryan asked Amelia for the umpteenth time as they drove through the gates of Liu’s estate in Beijing.After the incident with Lara and Benjamin, and after Ryan settled with his family, Amelia thought it was finally time to hear her father out. She recalled the words Jian spoke to her when she’d run away from Ryan after Selena showed up to destroy their wedding and she decided to give Liu a chance to explain himself. But by the time she called to set up a meeting with him in Jian’s home, her stepbrother informed her that their father was very sick and couldn’t leave his home in Beijing where he was receiving intense care from one of the renowned medical practitioners in the world. Amelia felt terrible that he was ill and they still hadn’t settled their differences. Thus, she’d insisted on seeing him, if he was up for it and she also wanted to finally introduce him to Dora.“I’m ready,” she breathed out, smiling weakly at Ryan. As if he could under
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and fourteen: The rightful heir
It’s been two months since Ryan began the search for Alan Masters, yet no traces of him have been found. At a point, his family had given up on the search and had decided to move forward. With Benjamin in prison and Ryan out of the family, there was no one to run the family’s business and no one was ready to take over because they weren’t ready to start another feud that may end terribly. Left with no option, a meeting was held and Ryan and Amelia were invited. The sole aim of the meeting was to plead with Ryan to return to the family and take up his old position as the heir and the CEO of DCL Inc.At first, Ryan had flat out refused their offer because his new business was flourishing well and he had no intentions of still working for his family or even being the sole heir of the Davidson’s empire but after many pleas from the family and Amelia, who thought he should give them a second chance to right their wrongs, he finally made a decision.He informed them that he’d take up the af
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and thirteen: Confession
Jian pushed Lara into the living room, where Amelia and Ryan were waiting for her. He stopped beside one of the sofas directly opposite the one Amelia and Ryan were seated on and tried carrying Lara from the wheelchair, to sit on the sofa but she waved him off, offering him a little smile.“Are you sure?” he arched a brow at her and she nodded.“It’s fine,”Jian exhaled and left her, taking the sofa closest to her.It’s been two months since Benjamin was apprehended and in all of that time, Lara was slowly slipping out of her pills-induced state. Although her injuries hadn’t properly healed, she was now aware of the happenings around her and was often awake for a few hours, during which she could speak with people. After the incident with Benjamin, no one was allowed in the home, except Amelia, Ryan, and the doctor who treated her.The first time she’d woken up, she’d been confused, but after her head was clear of the haziness, she told Jian of her last conversation with Benjamin, whe
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and twelve: Suspicion 2
It was already evening by the time Benjamin returned to the hospital. He walked into the waiting room and was about to head to Lara’s room when the nurse at the counter called him.“Hello, Mr. Davidson,”Benjamin glanced at her, annoyance radiating off him but he managed to keep it hidden, schooling his features into a concerned expression.“Are you here to see Miss Zhang again?” the nurse inquired and he stepped towards her. “Sure,”“Oh well, she’s been moved. She’s no longer here,”Benjamin’s brows furrowed and he stared at her as though she’d just sprouted a second head. The nurse saw the confused expression etched on his face and went on to clarify her words to him.“After you left in the morning, her sister and brother came to move her away. I suggest you ask them about her new location,”Benjamin tensed, his jaw clenching hard. He nodded curtly.“Thank you,”He stormed out of the hospital, his annoyance doubling as he inwardly cursed at Amelia for destroying his plans. If it wa
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and eleven: Suspicion
Amelia was singing cheerfully, swaying her hips and trying to dance to the song she was singing as she prepared breakfast. The rays of the bright morning sun streamed into the kitchen, lighting up the entire place, considering it was still early. She was preparing Dora’s breakfast. She’d woken up early to prepare her breakfast and lunch and to also prepare her for school. After Ryan had healed, they’d quickly moved out of his Manhattan penthouse and had moved over to Brooklyn, away from his family, to start up their lives and his new business. It’s been two months and things were going well for them. For now, she was just a stay-at-home mom, but she’d never been happier, with her fiance and their child. They were living a simple life, with no family members swamping them or even calling for unnecessary meetings. She’d also heard of Benjamin’s immediate take over of the Davidson’s empire on the news and she was glad that Ryan wasn’t concerned. His new business venture was going well,
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and ten: Perfectly recovered
Ryan was still shocked and trying to wrap his head around what the maid, Mia, had revealed to them. By the time they got home, Dora was already fast asleep. Amelia took her to bed while Ryan retired to their bedroom to prepare for bed, but all he did was stand beside the floor-to-ceiling window of his bedroom, overlooking the city below as he replayed Mia’s words over and over again in his head.He was so lost in his head that he didn’t hear Amelia walk into the room until she wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed her body hat tightly to his back.“Don’t be too hard on yourself,” she whispered, trailing one of her hands to his chest and patting him lightly. “We’re not sure if it’s true. It might just be a misunderstanding,”Ryan let out a deep breath.“What if it's true?”Amelia was quiet, not knowing what to say.“We’re no longer safe in their midst,”“What do you want to do?” her hands fell off him and he turned around, staring intently at her.“I think we need to leave this
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and nine: A fresh start
It’s been a week since Ryan was discharged from the hospital. He’d returned to his home with Amelia and Jian had stopped by to drop Dora off and to also say hello to Ryan. Some of his family members, even Lara, Benjamin, and Adeline had also stopped by to check on them. After that week of his recovery, he decided to call a family meeting to inform them of his plans. Just like he’d told Amelia at the hospital, he’d meant it and as soon as he was discharged, they’d been secretly making plans.It was the weekend and all of the Davidson family were gathered at Clifford’s home to hear Ryan out. He’d informed them that he had some important message to pass on to them. Benjamin and Adeline were also there, and so were Amelia and his daughter. Everyone wondered what he could possibly want to tell them, even his parents but only Amelia was aware of his plans.As soon as the meeting was ready to kick start, Adeline was the first to signify that she had something to say. Li na glared at her. Le
