Fifty eight: Just mine.

2020-08-02 22:26:43"So is there any other thing I'll need to do?" I asked my lawyer for the second time, grinning at him like I just won a competition.
He gave me a small smile, and began to arrange the papers he had in his hands. "Not at all. Since the divorce was done really early, I'll just have to submit it to the court. It'll be finalized by tomorrow morning. And since your wife has also signed it, there'll be no issue at all," he explained.
As he said that, my grin grew wider. "So does it mean that I'm officially divorced? Does it mean that I'm no longer married to— to that woman?" I seriously had to reconfirm.
He sighed, seeming like I was being disturbing. "Yes sir. You are now a divorcee. You're back to being a bachelor." He assured me.
"Yes!" I uncontrollably rejoiced. It still felt so much like a dream. A dream that always felt like it wasn't going to come true.

Jill—–As Jace kissed me, tears uncontrollably rolled down my cheeks. How did it happen? How did he get to like me? It all didn't make any sense. It was just too quick. How did it become possible?When I realized my feelings for him, I made sure I didn't express it. I tried so much to not act weird so he wouldn't be suspicious in any way. So how in the world did he get to like me back?With so much force, I jerked my lips from his, and turned away from looking at him, panting so heavily. "What?" He sounded quite flirting again. "You know you can't complain that I'm married. You have no excuse to not get close to me right now. And as a fact, I know that you love me too. Why the pretence?"What the heck? How did he know that?I slowly turned to face him, my eyes filled in tears, and my eyebrows curving into a frown.

Evening had come already. Liam and I had packed every of our things, preparing to leave Jace mansion. Liam had been crying all day, begging me not to leave the mansion, but I didn't agree to that. I told him that we already had enough money to get a big house, but he still didn't care. All he wanted was to remain with Jace.Sincerely, it wasn't like I didn't feel like staying in the mansion. It was just that I didn't know how to apologize to Jace. And even if I apologized to him, what was the probability that he was going to forgive me after what I had said? Especially due to the fact that I didn't say it for the first time. Goodness knew if he'd ever forgive me."Let's go now," I told Liam as I grabbed his backpack, and held his hands.Stepping out of our room, I took a last glance at it, and closed the door gently. And as we walked on the staircase, I carried Liam in my arms, and steered my eyes through the wide

Shanice————"Oh my freaking gosh!" Jill exclaimed over the phone, sounding so happy and agitated. "I'm so so happy. I'm so glad. I just can't believe that I'm in love again. And this time around, I can sense that this love will last for a long time. Jace is not a moron like my old boyfriend, you know?"I chuckled at what she said, walking gently on the street, and crunching on my snack. "I'm so glad for you dear. I just knew that you both were gonna be a couple someday. I sensed it! That's the person that deserves to be with a sweetheart like you.""Oh my goodness!" She burst out in a short laughter, and sighed. "Thanks for your encouragement dear. If you didn't speak to me, I wouldn't have given him a chance. And right now, I feel so good that I listened to you.""My pleasure," I replied to her in a mouthful of chips.

The pain I felt worsened, and I literally felt like dying. What in the world? How could Beth be with my boyfriend? How could they be in bed together? Was that the reason she always complained whenever I spoke about Aiden? Was all her complaints out of jealousy? But how could she? She loved me so much, and I also did. She was like a sister to me. How could she do this to me?"Shanice…" her eyes watered as if she was sorry. "I can—""You bitch!" I hollered at the top of my voice, and smacked my hands across her face. Why would she do such a thing to me? Just why? "What have I done to deserve this?!" I wailed. "What did I do to you?!"She held her red cheek, and reached the side lamp to switch on the room light. Now that I was seeing her face clearly, I felt worse. I almost doubted that I was looking at the wrong person."I can explain all of this. It's not…" she said. Bu

Trisha———I jumped from Xander and I bed, and wrapped the duvet across my naked chest. "Common!" Xander groaned as he laid on the bed, still half asleep. "Why would you take the duvet? Don't you know that I'm cold here?"I hissed at him, and ignored his grunt, heading to the closet of our hotel room to slip some clothes on.Putting the duvet on the towel holder, I grabbed a cotton sweater and knee length shorts, then slipped them on. I reached the hair brush on the dressing table, and brushed my hair gently.Turning to the mirror, I noticed a spot on my cheek, so I applied my skin care lotion on it. As I did that, the thought of how Jace hit me, suddenly jerked back to my senses. And that brought a bad memory to me. A memory I was definitely going to revenge for.Soon, I began to fro

"So what's up with your work?" I asked Jace as I chewed on a burger.He smiled, and glimpsed at me. "It's fine. I've just been kinda lazy at work these days. I seriously don't understand why.""Lazy?" I huffed. "How can you be lazy? You seem to work on your laptop all the time.""I'm lazy because of you." He winked at me.I chuckled, and took another bite of my burger. "I want to tell you something," I announced."What's that?" He still focused on his laptop."Well…" I sighed. "Since my mom is quite better, I want to visit her for two days.""Two days?" He raised an eyebrow at me. "What will you do there?""Hem, I'll help her out. I haven't seen my mom in a month. So why does two days matter?" I questioned him, a little confused.He inhaled hard, and stood up f

Like the confused person she was, she kept staring dumbly at me. It was so annoying because I didn't have enough time to keep staring at her. Maybe I had to break the silence first."How are you doing?" I kept my sneer, and walked to her front."Wh— what are you doing here?" She asked, avoiding eye contact with me, again.I stretched my hand for a handshake. "Hi. It's nice meeting you. You must be Jill's friend, right?""Hey." She hesitated before accepting my hand. Well, if she accepted it, I could still try to cajole her to work with me."It might seem quite weird to see me in such a place," I said, then she turned to me."It's not weird. Jill told me that you aren't with your husband anymore. She's with him now." She informed me, which kind of made me angry. Wow, so Jill was truly with my husband?"S

JillMassaging Mrs. Flores palm, I grinned at her and she did the same. "It feels like a dream," she said, probably for the seventh time.I chuckled at that, and said nothing, taking a glimpse at Jace who sat on the other side of her bed, staring at his mom like his life depended on her."Can you just forget about that now?" He requested, joking. "I don't trust you when you speak like this. It's either you end up teasing me for it, or you overthink on all of this.""Oh my boy." She sighed, and tapped his arm gently. "You seriously don't know how happy it makes me feel to know that you're free from that girl. She was a terrible bondage, you know? Thinking about her dominance over you always made me bitter. I constantly prayed that you'd get rid of her one day. God heard my prayers. I'm just so happy.""We're all happy," he told her, and glanced at me. "I gue

Billionaire's Surrogate Epilogue
Three years later…Jill——"Common!" Jace cried from our bed, groaning at himself.I turned to look at him, and shot him a playful glare. "Are you serious? Just get you damn ass off here."He rolled his eyes, and jumped from the bed. And as he sauntered to me, my eyes glued to his sharp, rock abs, that lined so much as his shirt glued to his body. Moving my eyes down to his lap, I noticed that his cock was crying for help, standing so firm under his sweatpants. I hissed at him, and returned to staring at the mirror."You had better go to the bathroom," I teased, slipping my robe off. "Today's Shanice wedding, so I need to leave early. There's no time for that.""Just for a few minutes. It'll be a quickie," he continued to convince me.I grumbled. And before I
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty eight: United forever.
Wandering in front of the door of the hospital room Jill was, I worried so much, being really unstable. I couldn't think of anything to do, or didn't know how to react. What if Trisha sent someone to poison Jill just like she had poisoned her boyfriend?My mom walked to me, looking equally worried. "My boy," she called, and took my hands in hers. "Let's be hopeful. Nothing will go wrong with her. She'll be fine."I nodded my head even though I was still doubtful. I couldn't have any hope at the moment because I was the only one around who knew how bad Trisha was."Ok." I inhaled deeply. "I'll try to be hopeful. At least, it's not like I've got any other choice.""Good then." She smiled weakly, and walked back to Jill's mom who was crying already. Why was she crying? It wasn't even like Jill was dead.Seeing how fearful everyone was, I became more angry, then stomped to the
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty seven: Wedding
It was exactly eight minutes to twelve o'clock. I hurried out of my car, and rushed out of the parking lot in the church, not even waiting for my bouncers to reach me first.On getting to the front door of the church, I sighted Jill and her mother, and that made me so relieved. To be sincere, I had been thinking about Trisha's threat all along. What if she was actually going to do something again? But well, now that I had seen that Jill was fine, there was no need to worry."Dude you're late!" Ace complained, walking fast to me. "Jill's been so worried. What happened? The final trial wasn't supposed to take that long."I shut my eyes, then exhaled loud. And opening it, it met Jill's. Shit, I didn't want her to see me."Jace!" She cried, holding her long gown, and stomping to me. I was almost lost in noticing how beautiful she was, but I decided to not pay attention to that. I was too late
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty six: Final Judgement
Three months later…"Mr. Flores!" Brittany barged into my office, holding a bunch of files in her hands, and rushing to my table. "The final judgement on the Miss Maxwell case is only in thirty minutes! You've got to get to the court soon!""What?! Thirty minutes?!" I hopped from my seat, and slammed my palm against my office desk. "How come you didn't tell me? Jeez, you've not been doing your job so well.""Me?" She bulged her eyes out at me, sounding quite informal. "I've come here to remind you, for the fourth time now. I even got to work by six, in order to ensure you don't miss it.""Oh shit!" I hit my fist against the table. "How'll I get there in the next thirty minutes?"She creased her face, seeming quite infuriated. "Hum, I think you'll get there sooner, if you stop speaking.""Are you shunning me?" I raised an eyebrow at me.
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty five: Game. Over.
I shoved the thick white towel I had used to dry my hair, on my neck, and ran my fingers through my wet hair. Wrapping another towel around my naked waist, I stepped out of the bathroom.As soon I stepped into the room of the hotel I was, the first thing my eyes caught was Jill. She was sitting on the bed, tugging her knees to her chest, and digging her head in between them.I breathed out via my mouth, and walked to her. She had been crying since I told her Trisha killed her friend. I tried to console her so much, but she didn't want to stop crying. I also made love to her a few minutes ago, expecting her to feel relief, but instead, she cried more. What could I do?"Jill." I sat on the space beside her on the bed.As soon as she heard my voice, she flinched, and rubbed her face, not looking at me in the eye. "You're done bathing?" She asked.I soothed th
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty four: Get her.
Unable to get my eyes off the screen, I unknowingly pinched the skin of my hand. It still seemed like some kind of weird dream. I had watched it for the third time, but still, I was doubting what I was seeing."Sir," the monitor guy called, causing me to jerk from my seat to turn to him. "You— you've been watching it for a while now. Don't you think you should give the footage to the police, already?"I shot him a glare, which made him avert from looking into my eyes. "Is it your problem?" I questioned him, harshly, even though I knew he was right. Well, I couldn't be blamed for my cruelty. I was in a state of shock.To aggravate my shock, not only did I discover that Trisha killed the guy who was her boyfriend. I also discovered that she was the one who killed Jill's friend. I couldn't even think of how Jill would react if she found out about it.Trisha was indeed a terrible person. Like
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty three: Investigation
I stared at the investigators as they scrutinized the room the culprit had died. It was almost eleven in the night, but I wanted to make sure to get what I needed to before day break. To be honest, I was so tired already, but I just couldn't risk my work, so I had to stay awake.I had bought this hotel a few weeks back, although it wasn't important to have it. I particularly bought it so Jill and I would spend the first day of our future honeymoon here. It was a decent and serene place for couples to relax in. The views from the balconies were so good, and I could tell that Jill would love it so much. I guessed I bought the place for her."Mr. Flores," someone called my name from behind.I exhaled faintly, and turned to the direction of the voice. As expected, it was one of the investigators. "Yes?" I replied.He walked closer to me, using a hanky to hold an empty glass cup. "Sir&he
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighty two: Phone call
Jace——Working on my laptop, I sat on my bed, and grabbed my phone to call my secretary. Shortly, I dialed her number, and waited for her to answer her phone as it rang."Hello sir. Good evening," she greeted, sounding quite grumpy. Ok, I could understand why she'd be grumpy. It was Sunday, and I was about to ask her to work?"I'm so sorry Brit," I apologized first, smiling at the tiredness in her voice. It was the first time I heard her sound so apathetic over the phone. Brittany was a really hard working person, and I so much liked her for it. Although I called her by her first name, I still gave her the full respect she deserved. I just wasn't used to being so formal with people I always stayed around with. It was one of the reasons I asked Jill to call me Jace, instead of Mr. Flores."There's no problem sir. What do you need?
