Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 140 The Invite of the Moore family
On the other side, the Moore family had no idea that if it wasn't for Shirley intervening, the Moore family would probably have gone bankrupt within a day.Now, Rupert has thoroughly explained Shirley's situation.The Moore family found out that Shirley really wasn't Susan, and disappointment filled their eyes.Of course, there were also looks of relief.If Shirley had truly been Susan, it would have blocked many people's financial paths...Mr. Moore, despite a disappointed expression on his face, saw clearly that the moment Keith confronted the Moore family, it was Shirley speaking up on their behalf!Regardless of whether Shirley had any connection to the Moore family, he had accepted her as his daughter!"Rupert, since Shirley is the wife of the Nelson Family Group's president, and you have a partnership with the Nelson Family Group, she will continue to stay in City F, right?" Mr. Moore looked hopefully at Rupert.Rupert's eyes flickered as he replied, "Mr. Moore, I understand you

"Sister Shirley, what else do you want to know? How about you ask, and I answer?" Claire countered.Shirley chuckled, saying, "Well, there's nothing I really want to know. You came to find me to persuade me to visit the Moore family, right?"Seeing Shirley cut straight to her intentions, Claire's face reddened slightly."That's really not necessary. I accept your apology from earlier," Shirley continued, "Visiting the Moore family isn't necessary."Claire became anxious, "Sister Shirley, do you think inviting you isn't classy enough? If that's the case, I can ask Mr. Rupert to invite you!"Upon hearing this, Shirley stopped in her tracks, raising an eyebrow, "Miss Claire, what does mean by that?"Claire looked at Shirley with a distressed expression, saying, "Sister Shirley, please don't be angry. I just wanted to ask you to pity the parents who lost their daughter, considering Dad and Mom are getting old. Sister Shirley, you are now also a mother, so please agree?"Shirley continued
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 142 The Feeling of Losing Her
"It's really good," Keith, who was usually so picky, approvingly commented on the pastry, showing that it was indeed delicious.Shirley lowered her gaze and asked, "Do you two need anything?"Her voice was calm and emotionless.Keith noticed Shirley's indifference and raised his narrow eyes slightly, saying, "Shirley, I'm here to formally introduce you two!"Keith felt that he and Lillian had already clarified everything. Lillian was his friend from his childhood. Naturally, he had to properly introduce her to his wife.But to Shirley, those words sounded like something else entirely.What? Did this mean that once your old lover returned, she, the interloper, would have to step aside?Shirley didn't say anything, but Lillian, being overly familiar, grabbed Shirley's arm and said, "Shirley, you're not mad at me, are you? Don't overthink it. Although Keith and I used to be involved, that's all in the past. Keith and I are just good friends now. Last night, Keith ignored you because he w
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 143 Visit The Moore Family
Tina made a face and remarked, "No wonder people say most women taken care of by Mr. Rupert end up falling for him. He's such a sweetheart, attentive and caring. It's impossible not to like him!""Alright, we'll be right out," Shirley quickly replied, not paying much attention to Tina's comment, and hung up the phone. She said to Tina, "You! If you like, he's all yours!"Tina immediately made a dismissive gesture, saying, "No thanks, I'm not interested in nice guys!"Shirley chuckled and grabbed Tina's arm, and they quickly headed out the door. As soon as they stepped outside, Shirley indeed saw Rupert waiting in his car."I'm taking Tina along, okay?" Shirley asked with a smile."Of course," Rupert shrugged, his eyes holding a hint of gentle warmth. "Miss Tina's visit is most welcome at the Moore family.""You're quite the charmer!" Tina sighed, shaking her head. "No wonder you and Keith are considered two of the top heartthrobs in the country! Keith relies on his strong pheromones a
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 144 Mr. Keith Is Here
Tina refreshed every minute, and after ten refreshes, Keith's comments and retweets had already exceeded one hundred thousand.What popularity!It's like one person's popularity can overshadow others!Shirley was completely unaware of this. Today she didn't bring her assistant, so naturally, no one reminded her.And Tina... sorry, she had no intention of letting Shirley know! Shirley was so happy today, and Tina didn't want to ruin her mood!Shirley had no idea that a casual photo Tina took of her had completely taken over the trending topics on Twitter.Today, Mrs. Moore's pastries were simply amazing.Knowing that Shirley liked Mrs. Moore's pastries, especially after Shirley agreed to visit the Moore family, Mrs. Moore pulled out all the stops and made a variety of pastries.Seeing the neatly arranged pastries in front of her, Shirley couldn't help but love them.Even though Shirley wasn't much of a Twitter user, she couldn't resist taking out her phone, taking a picture, and upload
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 145 Take My Beloved Wife Home
Mr. Moore reacted quickly and said immediately, "Mr. Keith has arrived. We can't let such an esteemed guest wait at the door. Let's go and greet him!"Mrs. Moore glanced at Shirley, who shook her head at Mrs. Moore, indicating she didn't know Keith was coming either.Keith showed up in very formal attire, leading a whole convoy.As for why a convoy? Well, those who wanted to see Keith just tagged along!Keith straight up told everyone he was here to pick up his wife from the Moore family.Whether he was to meet them or not was up to his wife's decision.So, this crowd followed.Keith got out of the car and waited, making everyone else too nervous to stay inside.So when Shirley and Mr. and Mrs. Moore finally came out, they were startled by the scene before them!There was a massive crowd at the door, surrounding Keith like he was the center of the universe.What was he doing bringing all these people to the Moore family?Shirley was taken aback.So was Tina. This wasn't Keith's usual
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 146 Do You Love Me?
"Let go of me! What are you doing?" Shirley struggled, but her strength was no match for Keith's.In her panic, tears welled up in Shirley's eyes as she choked out, "Keith, you jerk!"Hmm, yes, Tony said just let her curse it out! Once she does, she won't be mad anymore!Keith silently thought to himself.Shirley kept pounding on Keith's chest, but her feeble efforts were like tickling him."Don't cry, it hurts me," Keith blurted out when he saw the tears in Shirley's eyes.Shirley was stunned, completely bewildered.The next moment, Keith suddenly lowered his head and gently kissed away the tears on Shirley's face.His movements were gentle, as if Shirley in his arms was a fragile doll that would break with too much force...Shirley raised her gaze and fell into his deep, tender eyes.Why were his eyes so gentle at this moment... so caring?But if he truly cared for her, why did he rekindle his old flame with Lillian?Right, he was just... hmm... what was he trying to do...Keith's k
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 147 Why Did You Leave
Keith didn't expect Shirley to ask such a question.Wasn't it obvious?She was his wife, someone important to him, someone he wanted to protect.Was there even a need to answer such a question?Keith remembered what Tony said, that when a girl feels insecure, she'll ask a man if he loves her...Did she feel insecure?Raising an eyebrow, Keith began, "Of course I don't..."Before Keith could finish his sentence, his phone in his pocket started ringing.Taking out his phone and seeing the caller ID, Keith said to Shirley, "I have to take this call."With that said, Keith turned and left.Shirley lowered her eyes, a sarcastic smile playing on her lips.What did he just say?Of course, he doesn't... Of course, he doesn't what? Of course, he doesn't love her?Yeah, why would he love her?She didn't have Rose's figure or Lillian's looks.Keith, who had been showered with endless love, worth billions, inheriting trillions, why would he have any reason to love her?Haha... what a fool she was

Keith returned the Moore family, which he had previously acquired, back to them intact. He signed an agreement with Old Mrs. Moore, stating that the Nelson Family Group would annually provide free financial support to all industries under the Moore family and their research institute in Indonesia.At the same time, Keith ramped up collaboration with the Davis Family Group to compensate for the assistance and sacrifices their ancestors had made for the Moore family.Finally, Old Mrs. Moore let go of her prejudices and the so-called ancestral rule, stopped forcing Shirley to marry Rupert, and accepted Keith as her grandson-in-law.Keith, full of vigor, led Shirley back to the room, eager to explain everything to her.But before Keith could speak, Shirley's face suddenly turned pale, and she collapsed against Keith.Keith's words were swallowed up instantly."Shirley, what's wrong?" Keith scooped Shirley up and rushed out. "Doctor, nurse!""Keith, my stomach hurts. It hurts so much," Shi
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 282 Lillian's Outcome
After stomping out the cigarette butt on the floor, Lillian picked up the cup intending to take a sip, only to find it empty.Anxiously, she put the cup down and paced around the room.This shabby motel was tucked away in a corner of the old town, notorious for its crime and violence.Lillian really didn't want to be here, but she couldn't think of a better option for hiding out.The big hotels required ID registration, and she didn't want to risk being recognized, especially looking as disheveled as she did, with her scruffy appearance.She couldn't even bear to see herself like this, let alone others.This morning, while washing her face, she felt a lump in her throat, a sign that it might protrude again.This discovery made her extremely uneasy.In order to expedite the surgery and achieve the desired effect, she opted for a conservative procedure, leaving part of the Adam's apple intact.In other words, if her testosterone levels rose again, surpassing the estrogen in her body, sh
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 281 Lillian's Story
Shirley saw the flowers Simon had sent her blooming beautifully, and her mind wandered to the scene of Susan meeting Simon.Then, Shirley couldn't help but sigh.These days, Simon had been quite active in this circle, reminding everyone of Mr. Simon's presence.Hopefully, he could recover smoothly from Susan's death blow soon.Lost in thought, Shirley heard the doorbell ring.Naturally, someone went to open it, while Shirley stayed put.Lately, she noticed she was becoming lazier—moving only when necessary.Soon, Janet came over with a box, smiling as she said to Shirley, "This is from the Smith family, probably more flowers from Mr. Simon."These days, Simon had been sending over many flowers from his greenhouse.Thankfully, they had a dedicated gardener to tend to them, and a large enough greenhouse to store them. Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space for all these flowers.You see, even a random potted flower would cost tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars!These were all S
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 280 Our Deal Was Over
Well, Lillian would if she could!She felt all numb now!She could only look at Evan with pleading eyes, hoping he would spare her considering she had given him her first time.Sure enough, Evan caught Lillian's plea and immediately said, "Hannah, that's enough. You must be tired from all the hitting, be careful of the baby in your stomach."Hannah stopped immediately as Evan spoke.Shirley and Tina were once again speechless in shock.What a nice way Hannah turned things around!Indeed, Hannah must have been tired; hitting someone was physically exhausting!Hannah pointed at Lillian, accusingly saying, "You heartless creature, I considered you my friend, and you slept with my husband!"Shirley touched her nose; why did that line sound so familiar?Despite Lillian being physically numb, her mouth could still talk. However, the voice sounded oddly off."Hannah, do you think I don't know how you got pregnant?" Lillian's face was swollen from Hannah's hits, and coupled with her hoarse vo

Keith nodded, "You do understand my style and methods. Indeed, anyone who dares to target the Nelson family won't survive more than three days. I spared your life for a reason. You haven't disappointed me; you've smoothly resolved the trouble I wanted to get rid of."Lillian was trembling even more violently, "You...you...""Lillian, you've got some nerve! You actually wanted to lay a finger on the Nelson family's influence in Europe. Should I praise your bravery, or mock your stupidity?" Keith sighed lightly, "You thought getting enough shares would let you meddle in Europe? That's incredibly amusing!"Lillian glared fiercely at Keith, her voice becoming even hoarser, lacking the sweetness and clarity it once had. Instead, it sounded like a cracked drum, extremely grating."If you know everything, then do what you will with me!" Lillian gritted her teeth.Despite her words, her eyes kept drifting towards the door, as if waiting for something.Suddenly, Keith chuckled softly."Why wou
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 278 Her Secret Was Exposed
Lillian heard Monica's words and burst out laughing without reservation!"I'm talking nonsense? Monica, can you swear you haven't fallen for Simon?" A strange flush suddenly rose on Lillian's face, letting the cold wind blow against her, but she felt nothing, turning to look at Monica like this. "Yeah, with this scandal, how could you possibly keep it under wraps? You love Simon so much, you went as far as warning Susan, stirring up trouble with Shirley. But no matter how you cover it up, do you think everyone is a fool?"Monica recoiled in fear, frantically trying to explain, "It's just sibling affection...""Enough, save those lies to deceive yourself, stop pretending in front of me." Lillian continued pressing on: "But, I wonder, how would Simon feel if he knew his adoring little sister, who's been in love with him for over a decade, what would be his state of mind?"Monica finally panicked, reaching out to cover Lillian's mouth, but Lillian slapped Monica's hand away, looking at M
Mr. Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 277 What a drama!
Lillian's words caused the expressions of those around her to subtly change towards Albert.Many people present knew of Albert's background.Despite various disdain towards Mr. Albert, he was still connected to the Nelson family, an entity not to be crossed.Even if Lillian did not like Albert, she dared not openly confront him.Evan, grinning, approached Shirley, "Oh oh, your second brother was hit, as his sister-in-law, are you really going to remain indifferent?""Let's put aside the question of whether I am his sister-in-law, as the host of today's banquet, are you truly going to stay indifferent in the face of such a drama?" Shirley countered Evan.As Evan hesitated about whether to help, a commotion erupted at the entrance.Shirley followed the crowd's gaze. At the villa's entrance, a Rolls-Royce spun elegantly and parked perfectly.A group of well-trained bodyguards formed two rows, the car door opened, and an impeccably dressed figure leisurely got out.Shirley was speechless

Following Evan's gaze, Shirley turned around and saw Lillian in a white fur coat, wearing a red form-fitting dress underneath.Lillian walked in with a man in his forties on her arm."Lillian changes her man every time she appears," Tina remarked, crossing her arms. "Evan, did you invite her?"Hearing Tina's disdainful tone, Evan quickly replied, "Come on, why would I invite her? She's just a minor character, and doesn't have the qualifications. But the man next to her might be a potential investor tonight. Shirley, do you remember him?"Shirley looked puzzled at Evan, "Why should I remember him?"Evan smirked mischievously, "Because he's Director Alice's ex-husband!""Pfft..." Shirley and Tina both sprayed out the juice in their mouths!Shirley looked incredulous, "No way? Is Director Alice coming tonight as well?"Evan laughed more maliciously, "Yep, Director Alice will be here too! I wonder what it would be like for her to see her ex-husband attending this party with her actresses.

Of course, there were also some who worked discreetly, like the current assistant in front of him.As a member of the board of directors, Mr. Flores had seen this assistant a few times.This assistant was a formidable figure with blood on his hands. Did his presence mean that Keith already knew everything?Mr. Flores felt like a fish in hot oil, suffering repeatedly.Mr. Flores had an unprecedented sense of regret.He had always thought he was watertight, but little did he know that Keith had long grasped his weaknesses.The assistant gestured for Mr. Flores to look at the document in his hands.His gaze fell, and when he understood the contents, his eyes became increasingly sinister!The assignee of this document was not Lillian, but Keith!
