Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 43 Let me help
Dinner wasn't over by the time Lucas pulled Evelyn out of there but he couldn’t stand the atmosphere anymore. They were all pretending like they weren't lunatics just a few minutes ago.She didn't know why he decided to leave early but she didn't mind it. She sat quietly in the car, looking out the window, oblivious to Lucas staring at her from the rearview mirror.Her words at the table waltzed back into his head and he chuckled. A while ago he was getting pissed at his old man's yell but she managed to calm the storm. There were sides to her he was yet to see, as it seems."Is there anything you want?" he asked, keeping his eyes on the road."I'm hungry," she sighed. "I didn’t get the chance to eat that delicious looking pie- ugh!" she groaned, as if in pain. She had been looking forward to it.It was a nice feast back there. They may all have shitty attitudes but she knew that pie would make her feel much better.He almost laughed at her tantrums, "Since I pulled you out of there,
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 44 Guilty feelings
It was a hectic day for Evelyn the next day at work. She put aside her strange feelings from last night and had to focus on the task at hand.Her supervisor-- Aria, had sent a message to all her supervisees to come up with a project plan in a few hours."What are we going to do?""Just five hours. Why didn't she tell us yesterday?"The others whined around Evelyn, concerned and worried for their jobs. It sounded too important for any of them to flop as the company they were cooperating with was a large company."We can just leave it for the ones who have an idea. Let's just submit anything."Evelyn scowled at her colleagues, wondering how they managed to land the job in the first place but she understood they spoke from a place of panic. A project plan in under five hours before a meeting.She gripped her hair as she leaned forward on her desk. Where would she start from?"Let's go for a coffee break, Evelyn," Louise offered. "You need to be energised.""I'll catch up with you later,"
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 45 Olivia's Puppet
The atmosphere the next day at work was a bit hostile and quiet. It almost felt as though everyone was glum with their eyes on her.It wasn't until Jane called the team to her office that she got the news, "The plan was rejected.""What! B-But that's not right. How? Did they say why?""The director in charge of the cooperation didn't even give it a second thought. He insulted us and spoke so unprofessionally before dismissing it," Jane groaned. She had been racking her brain all morning thinking of what to do.Something was obviously not right here. Evelyn's plan was brilliant. It was a win-win proposal. No company in their right mind would reject that, it met everyone's needs and even proposed more profit."But that doesn't make any sense," Evelyn said, still in shock at the news."Do you think I don't know that!" Jane snapped. "I tried asking why but he didn't say shit to me!" she was really pissed if she was swearing at the office."I hope the higher ups could step in," Jane mumble
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 46 Failed Deal
"Listen up," Olivia smirked. "I'll only say this once," she held Evelyn's project with her index and thumb finger as if it were garbage. She glanced through the file, yawned and rolled her eyes."This plan has no depth. It's poorly done but I'm not surprised since the one who proposed it was half baked," she said. "It looks messy and completely foolish. Why did you even let a newbie I charge? That's very unprofessional of Wilson Company." She swung her hands around with nonchalance as she went on and on, insulting Evelyn and saying very little about the project."It's bad and lacks proper planning-” at this point, she was starting to repeat herself.“You’re not even reading it!” Evelyn almost screamed. It was hard to believe she was facing Olivia again!“I don't need to look at it to know how bad it is,” Olivia scoffed. “Just imagine if he took a look at it,” she walked over to Mr. Martinez and wrapped her arms around him while he held her waist.“I just saved you the trouble, dear,”
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 47 You're Fired
***TRIGGER WARNING: ABUSE**Jane slammed the car door shut when they returned to the company. She was filled with rage having been insulted and ridiculed by that woman! But more importantly, the project. It was over.Evelyn looked more defeated than she did and she suddenly remembered that she had received the full heat of that woman. It was obvious they knew each other."That woman, how did you offend her? She clearly hates you."Evelyn didn't want to look at her. It was all her fault. Maybe if they hadn't used her plan to begin with, Olivia wouldn't have picked on it."She's my step-sister-""What!" Jane almost screamed. "That's insane! You two don’t have a good relationship?"She shook her head, "It has always been like that. She hates me and I just… tolerate her."Jane could tell it ran deeper than that but she let it go. If there was anyone to blame, it was Mr. Martinez. How could he allow his private life to affect his work? Keeping a director like that would only ruin such a gr

"The project was approved."Evelyn's jaw dropped in shock as her teammates passed the news around. From the joy on their faces, she knew it wasn't a joke.Jane walked in the next minute with shock on her face as she confirmed the news. Turns out it was a mistake from the other company's director and there was now a new person in charge.The company sent an apology too and would like to discuss further with Evelyn who proposed the plan.Once the secretary from the higher ups left after delivering the news, Jane's team cried tears of joy while Jane and Evelyn were still in shock.Fired? How did he get fired so fast?Didn't things like these take time- like months before being discovered?While Evelyn thought about that, her phone chimed and as she got a new message. It was an email from her boss. She stepped away from Jane to read the content.'After looking into why a well thought out project was rejected, we found out that it was from the Company's director. Your plan has been approve
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 49 Sweet Dreams
They got breathless by the second as they kissed, pressing their foreheads pressed against each other. She had her hands on his face in a gentle caress as she touched his ears and his hair.The alcohol was very much in her breath, she didn't flinch when his hands circled dangerously to her core.Did she know what he was doing? Where his hands were and what this could possibly turn into?He broke the kiss first and watched as she still had her eyes closed, reeling from the feel of him. He smirked at how lost and immersed she had been.When she opened her eyes, her pupils were dilated with lust and her jaw hung open as the words were hooked in her throat.She was pulling him back by the collar, leaning her head to meet his lips once more."Don't stop," she mumbled against his mouth, her plea breaking the last he had.Those words were his undoing. He grabbed her thighs, pulling her closer as he pushed up her skirt. He caressed the smooth skin of her thigh and ass before slipping a hand i
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 50 Coffee and Confessions
Evelyn woke up with a pounding headache. She held her head as she sat up, looking around her room with a strange feeling.How did she get back home? Last thing she remembered was drinking with her supervisor, Jane. Did she call her husband later?“Ugh!” She groaned as she got out of bed and headed to the bathroom to shower. After the cool water washed from her head, she felt a bit relieved before making black tea to drink to get rid of her hangover.What happened last night? She hoped she didn't make a mess of herself when she got home. She would have to ask Lucas about that.She picked up her phone and saw a text from Alex instructing her to call once she saw his text.“Hello,”“I was wondering when you'd call,” he smiled over the phone. “I'd like to see you before I leave.”“You're leaving again? Don't worry, I'll take care of Charlie-”“No, Evelyn. I mean I'm leaving the company.”“What!” she didn't know when she yelled. “B-But how? Why? What's wrong-”“Haha! Why don't we hang out

“ 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
Billionaire's Charming Wife Chapter 80 The CCTV
"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
