Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 16 Her Seduction
Lucas put the document away and reached for the next one without looking. His hand grabbed a hold of nothing and he turned to see he had no more documents to review.When did he finish? He had probably been too immersed in it that he lost track of time.The door opened and his assistant walked in."Is there anything else that needs my attention?" he asked, looking around to make sure he didn’t miss anything."You've finished all your work for today and very early too," Mr. Parker chuckled, pleased at his boss's diligence and hard work. "You have enough time to rest before your appointment tonight. You'll be meeting Mr. Justin, CEO of XX at a restaurant near the company to discuss cooperation matters."He could use the rest after working tirelessly all morning.Also, wasn't today the day Evelyn was supposed to begin work? He could as well find out from Mr. Parker but then he had never asked about anyone. Asking about a woman now would make his young assistant think something else.Sinc
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 17 Where Have You Been
After a nice dinner with Alex, Evelyn took a cab home. She felt a tad nervous after mentioning the salary advance especially after his reaction."Oh!" He sat up straight, blinking in shock. "I didn't expect that but uhm… there are requirements for such and one of them is that you're supposed to have worked for the company for a certain period of time," he scratched his forehead looking sceptical as he spoke."But I guess I could report it to the company just in case," he said. "Let's keep our fingers crossed but Evelyn, don't hope for it too much."She understood what that meant but she also hoped her luck would go before her. If the fee for Peter's treatment wasn't paid within three days, his treatment could be terminated.That alone shook her with fear. She bit down on her nails, thinking of her next line of action.Wait! That dinner with Alex... Did he go home thinking she agreed to dinner just to make profit?"Ugh!" Evelyn put her hands over her face, feeling stupid for a moment t
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 18 Give It Back
Evelyn tiptoed down the stairs in her disguise. She wore her office shirt and skirt with the expectations to fool Lucas into thinking she was only going to meet one of her colleagues but luckily for her, her husband had stormed out of the house so she was all alone.Quickly before he would return, she called a cab and made it to the Casino.It was almost 10p.m. and she knew she couldn't waste another second.She stared at the place that filled her with chills and fears. The terrible attitude she had to put up with every day, especially from the manager-- Mark.She could never forget that one. He was the one who drugged her that night to offer to his client but somehow... Somehow she ended up with Lucas.Evelyn felt uneasy just staring at the building again. The bright lights were almost blinding and the voice of the people laughing outside was irking her.She had come here for her earrings and she wasn't leaving without it.Since Evelyn had worked here for a while, she knew the ins an
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 19 What Job?
After a failed attempt to get her earrings back, she dragged herself back home.Lucas didn't return home that night and Evelyn felt half relieved that she didn't bump into him.She went to bed, worried as she thought of ways to get her earrings from Mark. All his offers were too ridiculous. She couldn't forsake her well paying job to work a month free for him or even raise two million dollars!She was in a dilemma the whole night and could barely get any sleep.The next day, her eyes were puffy and she had dark circles and bags under her eyes. She stared back at her reflection, digging around for her make-up kit to blend her face.The brightened look she wore to work didn't last very long and soon, she was dropping her shoulders in devastation before she even knew it.Her work was slow and there were typos in her documents. She apologised many times and after the fourth mistake, her colleagues were frustrated. Having to move one single document back and forth was making them worried.
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 20 The Photos
Prostitute?This wasn't the first time someone was calling her that. The other person was Lucas.She bubbled with so much anger, wondering why they would call her that but she knew she couldn’t afford to waste any strength arguing back and forth on him."I earned it. I work at Wilson company now," she suppressed her annoyance to explain herself once more."Wilson company?" Olivia stared at her mother in shock. It didn't seem like Evelyn was lying but she couldn't bring herself to accept that a woman like her would get into such a big company.Wilson wasn't a joke. It was prestigious and anyone who got in was definitely smart."You?" Diana scoffed. "I'll believe it only when pigs start to fly! You stole our families money just to gamble and you're refusing to admit it. I'll never believe your lies!"She screamed so loud that everyone around gave their attention. Diana smirked, feeling proud that her goal was achieved. She only wanted to ruin Evelyn's name whenever she could and she wou
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 21 Cold attitude
Evelyn picked up the card and the photo in tears. She was trembling as she paid the bills for Peter's treatment. That was her top priority and nothing would stop her.Not even the ache in her heart right now. Why he was always so quick to judge her was what Evelyn would never understand!She couldn't push out the way he looked at her. The shock and the disgust that filled his face would definitely scar her tonight.Just how did Olivia get those photos? From this angle, anyone would immediately misunderstand the situation but why didn't Lucas simply ask for an explanation?He really must think of her as some whore who would be with just anyone.Whenever they met, she always ended up being hurt. If it wasn't from his humiliation and words, it would be his attitude.Time and time again, he had told her there was nothing but a contract couple but it seemed as though it didn't sink hard enough into her head.This time, she made up her mind to avoid him as best as she could. That was the on

"Cheers!"The clinking of glass soon followed and everyone took a sip off their drink. The project was successfully over and the team was having a little celebration.Evelyn wasn't left out as Alex had dragged her along. He couldn’t possibly let everyone else celebrate when she did most of the work."I'd like to propose a toast," Alex raised his glass and smiled at Evelyn who was sitting next to him in the booth. "To Evelyn. Her hard work got us this far and I must say, I am very pleased to have her on our team!""To Evelyn!" the other three chorused with glee.They all drank heavily that night whereas Evelyn was careful not to drink too much. She still ended up a bit tipsy either way. She was a light drinker so after one bottle of beer, she lost all functions of her body and could only smile, grin and laugh at everything anyone said."I'll go get more drinks for everyone," one of them offered but Alex was already rising to his feet, holding a tipsy Evelyn by the shoulder."I'll drop

Evelyn awoke with a start. She looked around the familiar room with no memories of how she got home last night but could remember little details of being with Alex.Her head banged and throbbed but she couldn't give her hangover any attention, she was rushing into the bathroom to freshen up for work.She dressed quickly and got to the office holding a cup of coffee to start her day. As she walked with such urgency in her steps, her hips swinging side by side, she was oblivious to the man following her.The coffee was soon snatched from her grasp and she jerked, whirling on her heels with a panicked heart but the smile on Alex's face calmed her down."You turned in quite early, Evelyn. I'm shocked. After last night-""I'm so sorry for any inconvenience I caused," she quickly interrupted with her cheeks turning rosy pink from embarrassment.It was supposed to be a team's dinner but she had to go and get drunk. Evelyn almost smacked herself in the head."Don't mention it. You were very c

“ My father has always been a powerful man and my mother? Well, she was just a woman who had nothing but love for her only son,” he chuckled with a fondness that made Evelyn's heart sink.Despite the fact that he was speaking before millions of people - with the press capturing his every word– Evelyn knew who he was really talking to.Details of his past that she never thought he would visit were being told here and now and all for her.“ Death stole her from me. My father remarried. Our relationship turned sour, step siblings were born, and well… attention was divided. I was cut off from the family business and, well, decided to start my own company.”“Away from my father's name, I took on my mother's– a sign that her blessings will continue to be with me. I got married - a contracted marriage and… man!” He sighed heavily.“ The loveliest woman I've ever come across. A heart of gold, a smile full of warmth that actually warmed up this heart I used to think had turned into stone.”The

“ Goodness me!” Morticia exclaimed as she walked into the hall with her husband, Mr. Graham by her side as well as her children.It wasn't just the gold floors or the bright fancy chandelier of the mansion, the decorations looked out of this world.“ I've never seen anything like it!” Liam, the second son of Graham had his jaw hanging loose.Morticia couldn't tell her son to control himself this time around because she too couldn't stop gawking at the place. The other guests were dumbfounded too as everyone tried to be on their best behaviour.The Graham's said their greetings to some distinguished guests and soon hurled to one side, ogling the place.“ When is this going to start?” Mr. Graham groans. “It's been over an hour now.”The place was packed with guests and a few people from the press waiting to capture the event and the face behind the successful company.“ Maybe everyone's not here yet,” Morticia shrugged but who wouldn't come early for an event like this?Mr. Graham scoff

TWO WEEKS LATERShe mixed the floor in the pan and poured the eggs, stirring it with a small smile on her face as she hummed to a song she couldn't even remember.Evelyn lifted her head when she heard footsteps rushing to her and she smiled when Peter rushed in holding a drawing book.“Look, I drew it!” he cheered, all excited and proud of himself.It was supposed to be a chicken… well if you looked at it somehow, it could be a chicken. Nevertheless, she rubbed his head and smiled at him.“You did good. You should draw more often,” she encouraged. It was a different feeling seeing him in normal clothes and outside the hospital. Her joy knew no bounds and it filled her heart.He grinned, “Yes, yes, I wanna be an artist. I'll draw something else. What are you making?”She turned to the dough and shrugged, “I'm craving doughnuts.”He almost narrowed his eyes, “ You've been having lots of cravings these days. I didn't know you were a foodie.”,She scowled and scoffed.“Add some for me,” h

"When last did we share a drink?" Andrew wondered as he looked to the other two were sprawled on the booth in the private room.There were over ten drinks on the table and neither of them seemed like they wanted to stop any time soon.Eric owned the place so he could very well pass the night and he wouldn't mind if they did too but Lucas? He was fucking married."It's past 10p.m. Why are you here again?" He asked Lucas who narrowed his eyes at him.Lucas didn't know what to say to that. He was confused and didn't know what to think.So last night he texted Evelyn that he would be working overtime which was true because he had some files to look at. He got home early by 3a.m in the morning and he joined her in bed after a shower. They kissed and they even had sex.The next morning, he woke up alone in bed which was normal and alright. When he got to work, his assistant informed him that Evelyn had taken a sick leave.According to him, she got to work, felt sick and went back home." We

"Here's a full report on how our stocks dropped my 3%"Mr. Williams sighed as he rubbed his temples. His head was throbbing and he could use a break right about now. It was already 7p.m but he had to stay at the company and have this meeting with his staff.There was a commotion outside and everyone turned their eyes to the door. A woman barged into the meeting and when she walked forward, Mr. Williams was sitting upright."Evelyn?" He asked in shock. What was she doing here?"What is the meaning of this-""Is it true?" She barked, ignoring the fact that this was a company. She was seething with so much anger and the look in her eyes was fierce and terrifying."Don't be such a mad woman, Evelyn. Whatever it is, we can discuss it at home-""I asked if it's fucking true! What happened to my mother, is it fucking true!" She screamed at the top of her voice, ignoring the presence of everyone else.The hall was silent as everyone waited for the CEO to speak. They were dumbfounded by the sh
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 78 Her confession
ONE WEEK LATEREvelyn grabbed her bags from her desk once it was time to leave the office. She rolled her shoulders as she walked down the road and stopped by a coffeeshop to get some pastries.For the last week, her life had been full of ups and downs, from one drama to the other.“Thank you, come again!” the attendant said with glee and she smiled back politely.She sipped from her hot tea as she walked down the road in the cold with a small bag of pastries in her other hand.She was in no rush to go home. Her first stop was the hospital. She needed to visit Peter as she had been doing every morning and evening before and after work.He was always eager for her visit.She should hail down a cab but for some reasons, she felt like walking. A long stroll to ease her mind from all the chaos she had gone through these past few weeks.Diana was still in jail, no chance of getting out. From what she heard from the warder, she was going through a lot. Her cell mate was a big bully.Evelyn
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 77 Mental Asylums
"Insanity?" Evelyn scoffed, refusing to believe her ears. "They are pleading insanity? Oh no way! She wasn't insane when she did that! She was fine and in her fucking right mind!"Olivia's lawyer thought it was best to say his client was mentally unstable and Evelyn knew what that meant.She would escape jail time if he managed to convince the judge."I've known Olivia for years and I can tell you that she's never been to a psychiatrist all her life. You have to believe me, Lucas." She pleaded, feeling frustrated already.She paced the floors of the courthouse, chewing nervously at her nails. "She's not mad! She can't get away with this so easily.""Calm down, Evelyn. I'm sure there's a way to go about this," Lucas hoped yet he sounded so sure, Evelyn almost started to relax.Why did it seem like he had everything figured out?She didn't want Olivia escaping jail. That was totally unfair.Even after all the evidence they brought up on her kidnapping Peter, they were going to rule her
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 76 Calling in Favours
It didn't take long before Evelyn tracked down Olivia's car by tapping into the camera's on the street she drove through. Her hands moved so fast the same way her heart pounded.She couldn't be even a second slow. The pressure was choking her but she managed to remain calm.Lucas noticed the pressure she had around her and he clenched his fist, wishing he could have handled this with his connections but she was faster, of course and more skilled.“We should leave now,” Evelyn announced. “They are headed for a dead end. If we leave now, we can leave before anything happens.” She gulped, already thinking of the worst.The policemen dashed out with Evelyn and Lucas behind them. They got into their separate cars and drove down to the address Evelyn had given.The place was an old warehouse at the outskirts of town. It was dark and spooky. Evelyn could already imagine how terrified Peter would be in the arms of that maniac.“We have the place surrounded. You two stay here and don't move a

Evelyn dropped the groceries on the table, humming in delight as she moved back and forth in the kitchen. She was enjoying her leave, thinking of her bosses generosity, the trial and pretty much everything that had happened these past few days.Peter was doing well. She could see it in the way he moved and how jovial he was. Things were finally starting to fall into place.She glanced at the clock and figured it would still be another two hours before Lucas got off work. She could make it just in time by cooking something good-She heard a car pull into the driveway and she froze. She quickly wiped her hands when she heard the car door shut and as she stepped into the living room, Lucas was opening the door.His face was in a big smile when he held her gaze."Hello you," he said, making her heart take a flip with butterflies in her belly as he approached her with a bottle of wine in his hands."Uhm… hey," she responded in a daze. He pulled her into a hug, kissing her on the cheek."Wh
