"I won't be coming to the office today." I informed my secretary over the phone as I leaned the back of my head against my seat, in my study room.
"Alright sir. I'll ensure everything goes well here. I'll call you if I need any important information." She assured me, sounding enthusiastic.
I opened my shut eyes and breathed out softly. "Thanks. See you on Monday." I added, and hung up the call.
Focusing back on my laptop, my phone beeped an incoming message. I first sipped from my cup of cappuccino and grabbed it after. To my surprise, the message was from someone I didn't expect. It was from Trisha.
With so much curiosity, I clicked on the message notification and read carefully through it. And, I instantly regretted reading it. The message was only an insult. 'Fuck you both!' was what she se

JILLMy smooth eyebrows curved into a deep glare. Instantly, I wanted to grab Liam and spank his butt. What was always wrong with this child? Couldn't he understand that there was a limit to things he could say?"Liam." My harsh tone made his cunning look form into a fearful one. "What did I tell you about speaking nonsense? Do you need to be punished?!" I squealed at him and jerked away from Jace's hold.Stomping to Liam as I felt so annoyed, I grabbed him by the arm and bent to reach his short height. "What did I tell you?!" I yelled at him."Mommy." He started to cry loud. "I'm so sorry. I was only joking with you. I'm sorry.""Sorry?!" I continued to shout at him. "Did I not tell you to not repeat this mistake again? Did I not?! You're a small boy so you shouldn't say things like that!"He whimpered and raised his hands to rub

Saturdays had always been busy for me as it presently was. As I went through my important work on my laptop, I also had to make some business phone calls. I was almost tired of it, but what could I do? A billionaire had to maintain his work in order to continue to swim in affluence.Checking what time it was, I was surprised to see that it was only eleven in the morning. That meant that I still had enough hours to work. In that case, I could do something else. Maybe watching a movie could be great. I hadn't watched any, in months.Not taking too long, I shut my laptop down and made my way to the theater room in my mansion. In fact, I could also invite Jill and Liam to join me. That was a good idea because I had been busy with work since the last three days that I didn't really have time to be with them.Walking into the living room, the first thing I noticed was Jill saying something to Liam as they sat

From the way I didn't feel exhilarated or so amused to see Trisha, I could tell that I wasn't so happy to have her back. It got me so confused but that was the truth.Staring at her only bridged anger and sadness within me. Being sad was definitely something I was so used to anytime she went for so long. But being angry was a really weird feeling.I had never been annoyed at her whenever she left for a long time. I had only ever felt sadness and happiness. But why in the world was I feeling angry now? It was technically a strange feeling."Hi baby." She smiled and moved closer to stand in my front, confusing me even more. I wrinkled my face into a confused look as I was almost shocked by her reaction on seeing me.First, Trisha had never smiled whenever she got back from her long separation with me. And second, the fact that she saw Jill with me, I sincerely expected her to flare up

Her glare becoming more intense, she hopped from the bed and rolled her fingers into a fist. "What's this trash Jace? Are you seriously refusing to give me money?" The angriness in her voice worsened.Again, I let out a chuckle and stood up as well. "Oh sweetie." A devilish smirk built by the corner of my lips. "Why would you need money again? Irrespective of how bad your investment was, I do not expect you to need money after collecting two hundred million dollars as of two months ago. How do you get to spend your money?" I told her.As I mentioned that, her burning expression cooled down, and she averted from looking into my eyes like she saw a demon in me. What happened to her suddenly? Was it a scary thing to ask her how she spent her money?From her action, I could partially sense that something wasn't right. Or was she using the money for something else?"Why looking away, Tri
Last Updated : 2020-07-15Billionaire's Surrogate Twenty eight: Helper, comfort.
Staying in one of the balconies in my mansion, I stared at the view from there, and tried so hard to get rid of the thoughts on Trisha's behavior.After I had left our room, I tried to continue my work but that wasn't even close to being possible. All that rang in my head was Trisha. I was thinking about how she had always been treating me, how she acted guilty and nervous when I asked her some simple questions, how I was starting to doubt the work she was doing, and of all, how she didn't feel bad although I expressed my pain to her. All of it caused an ardent pain within me. If I could cry, I was sure I'd be wailing on the floor already. She was indeed making my life a living hell.When I decided to say all my pain to her, a part of me convinced me that she might feel sorry because of it, while another part assured me that nothing would change. But although I had doubts, I chose to be optimistic, only for her to prove me
Last Updated : 2020-07-15Billionaire's Surrogate Twenty nine: "I love you too."
Sitting in my study room, the thoughts of how close I was to Jill the night before, caused me to smile at myself. The way she let me feel the warmness and serenity of her body, made my night blissful. Infact, I wasn't able to concentrate on my work properly. All I could think of was how she got me so glued to her. Was she a witch?"Focus boy. What's with you?" I whispered to myself as I rubbed my palm against my forehead."Can I come in?" A thin voice sounded from my doorstep, so I raised my head to see who it was.Again, she made me smile. It was Jill. She was peeking her head through the tiny opening of the door.I stood up from my seat and turned around the table to reach her first."Sure," I said to her.Standing in my front, she stretched her hand to give me something. "Good morning. I brought this for you." She said.I glanc

JillStepping out of the kitchen in Shanice's house, holding a tray of the cookies I had baked, I joined her and Beth in the living room."It's been a while since I've seen you Beth." I said to Beth in mouthful of cookies, and dropped the tray on the centre table.Beth dropped her phone on her seat and grabbed some cookies from the tray. "Yep girl." She said, and began to crunch a cookie."Well I see her almost everyday." Shanice added from her seat, staring at her phone like her life depended on it."Duh duh." Beth hummed and continued to read through her magazine. She was a big fan of magazines, and goodness knew why.I sighed and moved closer to Shanice on the couch she was sitting on, and tapped her shoulder to get her attention to me."What?!" She whined and hit her hands against mine, so I co

JACEWith a great deal of fear and anger, I tightened my fist more, being so short of words. I probably didn't hear her properly. What was going on? Something was definitely wrong somewhere. My Trisha couldn't do such.Panting terribly and frowning so much, I jerked her arm and tugged her close to me. "What is going on?!" I asked, my breath slowly whipping off."J-Jace?" Her voice was shaky, holding a great thrust of fear. "What's it? What's wrong?" She asked dumbly.I glared harder, my nose, eyes and lips wrinkling so much from how vexatious I was. "Are you crazy? Don't pretend now. I heard you! I heard you speak to some idiot now!""What are you saying?" She creased her brows like she was confused.I tightened my tug against her arm, and that made her groan. "Stop this game of yours. What's all this?!" I yelled.

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?
