Married To The Billionaire Devil Chapter 39: Birthday
"What are you doing here?" Yazmine and Aiden asked in unison. They both stared at each other afterward with different thoughts running through their heads."I'm here to see someone," she spoke first, breaking the long silence between them. "What about you? Do you live around here?" she asked."I... yeah, I live around here," he replied. Could she be looking for him?"I should leave now," she said, walking past him."I'll walk with you," he suggested."Oh, I'm fine. You shouldn't.""This street is pretty dangerous at night," he said, but she turned away."You don't need to worry," she said stubbornly, walking down the street. Just then, a strange man lurking around the corner suddenly snatched her purse. Yazmine wasn't fast enough to react.The man ran but had no idea of the figure standing before him. A unch flew to his face, sending him down to the floor, a loud groan escaping his lips.Aiden stepped on the hand holding Yazmine's purse, putting enough pressure to make the man groan a

Diego slowly turned his head towards Jameson, who gave him a grin in return. If looks could kill, Jameson would be unconscious.Before he could fire at him, his eyes spotted Candy approaching them. She was so beautiful, he almost didn't recognize her for a moment. Her red short gown clung to her curvy body, alluring enough to make any man drool. Her makeup was light, and her curly black hair fell on both shoulders."Happy birthday," she greeted with a warm smile. Judging from her expression, she must have prepared this."What's this?" he asked in a not-so-cold voice."My present. Days like this should be warm and filled with happiness. Please let us make you feel that way, even if it's just once." Her words were supposed to surge anger, but they didn't. Though he hated this, part of him wanted to sit among these people."It's just a short dinner. Please," her eyes desperately wanting him to stay."C'mon Diego, I'm hungry!" Einstein exclaimed from around the corner. Jameson gave him a

As the sun peeked through the slightly parted curtain, its warm hues illuminated the luxurious room that exuded elegance and comfort.With a frown, Diego stirred from his sleep. He opened his eyes slowly; he had never slept peacefully for a long time. His frown deepened as he tried to recall what had happened last night. As he made to leave, a fragile hand around him gave him pause.His sight caught Candy's head gently placed on his chest as she slept. What the hell?! What was she doing in his room? She was naked, and half of her body was covered with the quilt.Last night's memories flooded in..."Hey Candy, can I?" His words rang in his head. He also recalled how he had asked her to stay and how gentle he was last night. That was crazy of him!"Fuck," he cursed, slowly removing her hand from himself. Swinging his feet to the ground, a hangover hit him hard, and he groaned."Happy birthday, Mr. President!" He recalled how his employees had chorused those words. The anger that was sup

"Yeah, she's my little sister. She came to check up on me," Aiden replied behind her. Yazmine immediately felt crazy about her action, but she surprisingly felt relieved by his statement."Anyway, did something happen? Who could have ruined your mood this morning?" Aiden asked curiously."Nothing, just get to work," she said, walking away immediately."I should go now. I'll see you soon, brother," the girl said and left."Okay, bye, Andrea."Aiden's gaze went to Yazmine's retreating back. His lips slowly curved up into a knowing smile.__Around a corner, Jameson faced Candy."What do you want to talk about?" Candy asked."What happened to you?" Jameson inquired, and she blinked, wondering what he meant."Nothing, I was just tired...""Don't lie to me, Candy. I know you more than you imagine. Was it Diego?" His serious expression confused Candy a little."It's nothing, James," she whispered."Nothing? Your eyes are a bit red; you must have cried, and you said it's nothing? What did he
Married To The Billionaire Devil Chapter 43: Business trip
Squeezing the cup hard, some of the hot liquid spilled on Jackie's hand, snapping her back to reality. Instinctively, she dropped the cup to the floor and winced at the sting.Yazmine averted her gaze from the two figures to Jackie, a worried look on her face."Are you okay?" Yazmine asked."Uh... uhm... I...""Jackie?!" Candy's familiar voice sounded from a distance. Her face brightened as she ran to give her a hug. "It's so nice to see you. Gosh, I've missed your adorable face!"Jackie's smile returned. "I'm glad to see you too, sis." Her gaze went to the man behind Candy."Hey, troublemaker," Jameson greeted, and got a glare in return."By the way, what happened to you? You looked disturbed a while ago," Jackie said."It's nothing. Since you're here, let's have lunch together," Candy suggested, and Jackie nodded. As they left, Yazmine turned her gaze to her little brother."What was that?" she inquired."What?""You know what I'm talking about, James.""I was just consoling her, no

"I told her to bring her," Yazmine replied instead. "She'll be coming with us to gain some experience," she smirked. Jameson knew what that smirk meant."Hey!" Jackie suddenly appeared before him, and he jerked. "I would love to learn from you, new boss!" she exclaimed, bowing her head so low it almost touched her knees. Jameson stayed stunned.Einstein chuckled. "I'm loving this."Candy's smile dropped; Diego wasn't there with them. She couldn't help but wonder if he was okay. Checking her phone, she saw he hadn't replied.__It's been three whole days since they left for the trip. In these three days, Diego completely forgot she wasn't home; he would check her room and find it empty. When he realized, he would curse under his breath.There were no texts or calls from her. Deep down, he wanted to know how she was.Staring at his phone, he battled inwardly for a while before dialing Jameson's number."Hey, dude! It took you long enough, Diego Gonzalez," Jameson's mocking voice sounded

Jameson got to his apartment and slammed his door shut. His fingers went straight to his hair. "It's the right thing to do, James, you did the right thing," he kept assuring himself but couldn't suppress the anxiety growing inside him.___Back in New York, he remembered how Jackie knocked on the door of his room. They all lodged in a hotel, their rooms not far from each other.Opening the door, his face contorted into a surprised expression."Jackie?" He frowned. "What are you doing here?""Just checking up on you. You seemed pale for a moment while we were at the beach. That was why you left early. Are you alright?""I thought I clearly told you not to worry about me, Jackie," he cut her off."None of your friends or even your sister knows you're sick. This is too risky," Jackie said."I'll be fine if that's what you want to know," Jameson said, trying to close the door, but she held it."Wait," she stated, and he waited for her to speak again. She drew out a small container which J
Married To The Billionaire Devil Chapter 46: She's crazy
As Jameson and Diego walked, Jameson sighed. He knew Diego only approached them because of Candy and used him as an excuse. Diego would have just called if he needed him. "Why can't you just open up to her?" he asked the man walking with both hands in his pockets. "About what?" "About your feelings, man," Jameson replied. "I don't even know how I feel. I'm confused myself. How am I supposed to tell her?" Diego sighed, his expression disturbed. "I didn't know women were so hard to read. Fuck," he muttered. "You should have known this before hurting her in the first place." "Don't scold me and tell me what to do. This shit is driving me crazy. I don't even know what to think, alright?" "Fine, follow my lead. But for now, just give her a little time." __ Yazmine spotted Aiden's seat and found it empty. She remembered how Aiden got a call while they were on the trip. "Your sister was trapped in a fire. Where are you, Aiden?!" his neighbor had called that day. Aiden stoo

"I love you so much, Mom. I wish to kiss your cheek right now," Alex said."Sure, baby, come," Candy said.The two boys came running towards her. They kissed each side of her cheek, and Diego sighed."You shouldn't talk or stand while eating," Diego stated."We wanted to kiss our mother. Is that a wrong thing to do, Father?" Andrew asked."I know what you're doing," Diego raised a brow."She is our mother," Alex said from behind."I can take her out on a vacation like I did last time," Diego said, warning dripping from his tone. He seemed to have won again since the boys didn't know what to say."Di," Candy called, seeing the boys' sad look."They are pretending," Diego knew these two devils better than Candy... they were practically him."Di," Candy called again."Fine... I'm not taking only her. Actually, we are all going on a vacation," Diego stated, and the boys squealed with joy.Candy took Andrew onto her lap while Diego took Alex, and they began to feed them.Old Mavis smiled.

Twins?Shock registered on Diego's face; of course, he wasn't expecting it."What did they say?" Candy's weak voice brought back his attention. She couldn't hear them earlier due to exhaustion."Bring them over," he demanded from the nurses, and the two boys were handed carefully to him. His eyes teared up as he stared at the two blessings.This was his first time holding children—they were his. Never had he thought a day like this would actually come."W...we have twins," his voice trembled with excitement.

The next day, Jameson and the others were admitted to the hospital to tend to their wounds.Aiden was chatting with Blake when Yazmine appeared."Yaz!" he exclaimed, standing up."Aiden!" Yazmine ran to hug him tightly. Aiden did the same, kissing her neck."That jerk has a girlfriend," Blake muttered. His phone beeped; it was time for him to leave. He gave Aiden one last look and left."Did you miss me that much?" Aiden asked as Yazmine continued to hug him tightly."You have no idea," Yazmine mumbled. "I was so scared when I heard about the bomb. Are you hurt?" she asked, looking up at him."Just a little...""Huh? Where? Let me see," she demanded, checking out his body."Yaz, I'm fine," he assured her, but she refused to listen. Aiden pecked her lips, and she froze."I'm fine," he said again, tucking her loose hair behind her ear.

Vincent roughly made his way to Hannah's ward. He was a mess, lean and dirty to look at. The man appeared as someone who had lost his world.Opening the door, he staggered in but then frowned, seeing Hannah lying on the floor.He took slow steps approaching her."Hannah?"

Noah asked."Not yet... the search is still going on," the built man behind him replied. He was the one who had captured Jameson.Noah returned his gaze to the two and smiled. "Where are the rest of you?""In your ass.

The men in the room literally choked on their saliva and began to cough. Candy's face turned pale and red. This would be the first time hearing that walking could affect pregnancy. "No, no it doesn't," she shook her head vehemently. She couldn't imagine Diego carrying her all around the house. "Don't worry, wife. I'm strong enough to do that every single day," he replied. "Huh? No, you don't have to. I'm fine." Diego didn't listen as he led her back to the room, placing her gently on the bed. "Wait here, I'll get something to eat," he kissed her forehead and left. Candy's mouth stayed open. Gosh! He is so adorable. She laughed lightly at his reaction seconds ago; it was so cute. Diego came back after some minutes, an alluring meal laid on the tray he was holding. "The chef made this," he stated. "Wow, it looks so good," Candy squealed, smiling like a kid. "Thanks, hubby." "I love your smile so much." His face turned worried again. "Have you gone to the hospital?" "Yeah, I did

Venessa held her red cheek and shot a glare at Yazmine. "Here is a drink, ex-boss," Jackie said, spilling the water in her hand on Venessa's dress. "You!" Venessa yelled at them as she stepped forward with a glare. "Girl, don't even try what's inside that birdbrain of yours 'cause you'll surely regret it when I shove my heels into your mouth," Yazmine warned, her voice cold as hell. "You're just sad, and trust me, you haven't seen enough. I'll pay you back for what you did to me. We're just getting started," Venessa glared. Yazmine didn't reply. Not that she didn't know what to say, she just didn't want to waste precious saliva because of the dumbass. "You can take the remaining drink," Jackie said, dropping the bottle on the floor before following Yazmine. Yazmine took a deep breath in frustration after driving away from the company, with Jackie seated by her side. "I have no idea what I'm doing," she muttered. "We should find Candy first," Jackie suggested. "Yeah,
