Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 71 - Los Angeles, New York, Or Ohio
"What do you want the party to be?" Adaline asked her at dinner. It was a family dinner to welcome the joyful news of her pregnancy. All of Byrne presented because it was the weekend.Anna drank as Adaline asked, and it caused her to choke. Actually, it was more for her to lose concentration, so she took a gulp of water and breathed simultaneously. The result was obvious. She coughed as water entered her airways."Slowly, Ann," Dave said as he rubbed her back. Concern appeared on his face.While Adaline looked guilty for causing her to choke. "I'm sorry, Anna. I didn't mean to surprise you with my question." One thing she learned about her. Anna was sensitive about her marriage and what she asked about the party for their wedding. She had heard Anna's consent from her mother, so she wanted to discuss the details. After all, it was her son's wedding party. Although it was late, she tried to make it the best.Anna shook her head quickly, even though she coughed occasionally. "No. No," s
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 72 - Linda Lowy
After a long weekend full of drama, Monday finally came. Dave had to return to New York while Anna had to get back to work. Actually, there was no job other than delivering script offers to Adam. After that, she decided to stop by the company to discuss the possibility of her taking time off. Yeah, she knew taking time off early in pregnancy was too much. But she thought about the doctor's words and Dave's request to focus on her pregnancy. Instead, Dave allowed her to send the script to Chelsy. At least she was getting closer to her dream.But she was a little worried about Jenny's response. Jenny didn't like losing her best employees. And to quote her words, Anna was one of them. Remember about Jenny granting her request to take the weekend off? That was how Jenny treated her employees, especially since they had a shared history. The time they passed together presented bonding more than co-workers.Anna pushed open the glass door and gave the security a smile before passing through
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 73 - Working For Linda
"So, what brings you here?" Jenny asked after they were in her office and sat across from Anna on the sofa.Anna didn't answer right away, instead taking a few seconds to think. The question was the same. Should she say it now?"I'm thinking about the possibility of taking some time off," she answered simply and clearly begged a follow-up question.And Jenny's reaction was just as Anna had predicted. Her brows furrowed, and surprise appeared on her face. "You want to take some time off?" She repeated the sentence but with a change in her tone. That became a question, to be precise, making sure what she heard.Anna nodded confidently. She had said it, so she needed to finish it. "Yes. Is that possible?"In fact, she had a Plan B in case this didn't go well. If she couldn't get time off, there was only one option. She must resign. Indeed, that seemed too much. But she would still do it later. Apart from being a screenwriter, her dream was to become a full housewife like her mother. And
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 74 - I Love Ice Cream
Linda Lowy.The name had been ringing in her head since the first day she heard it. No matter how hard she tried to get rid of it, it didn't work and instead got entrenched inside. It was annoying, and it almost frustrated her. But she really didn't know how to get rid of it. It also caused her difficulty sleeping last night. It really sucked!Linda was beautiful and had a pleasant personality from the information Anna got. That was why her fans regretted the end of her relationship with her boyfriend, especially Dave. Anna would find some comments asking her to come back to him. Then what about her? She was his wife, even though the world didn't know about it yet.Wait. Was that the reason Grandma pushed on the announcement of their marriage? To beat the popularity of Dave and Linda's past relationship.Ah, she was thinking too far. Where could that be the cause? After all, they should announce their marriage. Instead, she was strange to ask them to keep it a secret. So, if something
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 75 - A New House
Anna just stared at the road in front of her. It was familiar even though she did not know their destination. Dave only said about taking her somewhere without giving an explanation. So what she could do was guess what he meant.Dave took a right turn at the intersection she knew led to Chelsy's house. Her brain worked to connect it all. What was their destination? But for what reason? They hadn't made an appointment yet, or Dave had a promise behind her. But what?Questions kept spinning in her head until Dave steered the car into the block where Chelsy's house was. So it was true that they would visit her? He should have told her ahead of time so she could bring something for her.Surprisingly, she saw Chelsy's house, but he didn't slow down the car and just passed it. She could only stare at that from the window as her home was getting farther away. Turned out that wasn't their destination. Then where would they go?She returned to her position, looking straight ahead as they passe
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 76 - Drop All The Bombs
They were sitting in the living room watching television with her body in his arms when his phone rang. That was Chelsy."I'm outside your house," Chelsy said simply as soon as Dave picked the call up. She said she wanted to visit their house by bringing dinner for them. It was to celebrate their new home.Dave immediately got up from his seat, walked to the box attached to the wall to access the gate and door keys and showed who the guests were, and found Chelsy's car on the screen. Then he pushed the button to open the gate. The screen then showed her vehicle going through the gate, and once it was wholly entered, Dave pressed the button to close it. After that, he unlocked the door, so Chelsy didn't have to call or ring the bell anymore. Yeah, that was what the latest technology offered for the safety of their house."She's coming," Dave reported while hanging up the call."You should have filled the fridge when you decided to spend the weekend here." Instead of responding to his w
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 77 - Hot Chocolate In The Morning
"Dave," she called in a whisper as she felt his arms tighten. It was morning, and she had just turned off the alarm. But Dave wouldn't let her go, even though she knew he was awake.Dave just mumbled unclearly and returned to enjoying his position. He smelled her with his eyes still closed and felt the warmth in his arms. It made him not want to wake up early.She rolled her eyes at his reaction. Since last night, right after she said Linda's name, he had been acting a little weird by always taking the opportunity to hug her. He didn't leave her side and even followed her everywhere, except for the bathroom.Oh, the bathroom! That gave her the idea."I need to pee," she said, waving her plan out of his arms. No. Not that she hated being in his arms—she loved it so much. But she needed a break from him for a moment. She needed some alone time.Was it related to Linda?It might be. Anna would be a liar if she said it didn't affect her at all. Last night's conversation only eased the bur
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 78 - I'll Silence Them
Dave had guessed it. She did overthink. Coupled with the pregnancy hormones, it most likely happened.To be honest, he never expected their meeting to happen. At least Anna knew about Linda, not that way. Who was not surprised to find her husband's ex-lover standing in front of her? And what did she say? Did Jenny offer her to work with Linda? It was ridiculous! He was not worried about Linda but about his wife. He was worried about what Anna thought and felt the whole time she worked with Linda. It would be better if he were a mind reader. Unfortunately, he wasn't and just relied on his instincts to guess what was on her mind."About Jenny's offer. What if you refuse it?" he asked close to her ear. Oh, he loved the smell. It soothed him by smelling her scent and feeling her warmth. It felt like he wanted to hug her all day. Certainly not because of the conversation about Linda, as she alleged, but he really wanted to hold her and rub her belly. And talking to their baby. "Why?"Beca

Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 130 - The Second Baby
Anna peered through the common bathroom door on the first floor before stepping out casually as if nothing had happened. She walked past Dave, who was sitting on the couch in their living room and reading a report on his tablet, with Zach crawling on the floor."Zach, baby, come here." She called for Zach's attention, which was never hard to get. "Let's play outside."And his reaction was predictable. He was running toward his mother excitedly. His smile was so big that it was going to explode.Being a child seemed fun, didn't it?She followed him, running out of the house to their yard barefoot. She couldn't help her own smile from forming on her face at seeing him and another happiness she had just found out about today.She was pregnant with their second child.But be quiet. Anna wanted to make a surprise for her husband.Oh, she couldn't wait to see his reaction!"Zach, come here. Mommy wants to say something to you."Zach halted his running to look at his mother with an indescrib
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 129 - Epilogue 1: Cookies
Three years later.She watched everything. Their every move, laugh, giggle, scream, and more. She couldn't help but grace a wide smile over that. It was too good to be true. But it was what that was as it was the reality.Baby Zach was now three years old and in his active days. He had run on every corner of the house and was always excited to run outside.Although it tired their body from following him around, she didn't complain, especially Dave. He always had the energy to play with him and never ran out of ideas. He raised their child with all his heart.She shook her head to force herself back to her place. She couldn't only observe them all the time, as she needed to finish the cookie dough.Zach had the exact liking as hers for sweets. So she tried to be the best mom by baking them instead of buying them outside or ordering chefs to make them. It was cheaper and could adjust to her family preferences, which she wanted, not too much sugar.As Dave said, sugar was a killer.She
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 128 - Baby Zach
"Hi, baby boy. I'm happy you're awake, and I can hold you. Your mother must feel the same way. But she's resting now, so let's not disturb her and play with me instead." His voice was laced with happiness as his eyes flitted the same feeling. There was nothing happier than this moment when he finally held baby Zach. And the fact that he was born healthy was wonderful. It could be perfect if his wife's recovery went well.Baby Zach wriggled his tiny hands and managed to capture Dave's finger. He gripped it though his eyes were still closed. Baby Zach might sense familiar and safe, so baby Zach didn't cry, which made Dave's heart swell with pride and warmth. Only his touch could do that, and he couldn't be more proud of that."What do you think about this world? It's amazing, isn't it? You have me, your mother, and your entire family by your side. And in the future, you will find your own friends."Baby Zach was just quiet, and if his grip was not still on his finger, Dave might have th
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 127 - Austin Or Zach

She wanted to make sure everything was ready when the time came, which was soon. Her due date should be this week, and she couldn’t be more excited to finally welcome their baby.She moved to the only bed in the room. It was big and had four wooden walls on four sides to protect the baby from falling. And it was the one Dave said could accommodate her body while breastfeeding their baby. She even could sleep on it too.Her hand touched the doll on the nearby side and placed it neatly between another doll and the pillow. She had some, mainly cute animal characters, to accompany him while he was sleeping.Yes, him. Their baby was a boy.“Do you like it, honey? It’s nice, right? Your father prepared them for you.” She spoke as her hand caressed her so big
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 126 - Linda, Again
"I saw everything, Anna. I know what you hide behind your back." His eyebrows raised as if waiting for her to reveal it by herself. There was no point in hiding it anyway since it was why he approached her. He already saw her enjoying the ice cream!"What do you mean?"So she was going to play with him. Unfortunately, he didn't want to pretend that he did not see that. "The bowl. Ice cream."And she could only force a grin."Come here." His hand reached out to invite her to come near him."No. You will scold me.""That means you know you were doing wrong. How many bowls have you had?""Hmm. Five?""Count it correctly, honey.""Okay. Okay. Nine." She raised both her hands in the air and surrendered herself."No, honey. The bowl in your back is the eleventh."He actually didn't have a problem with her enjoying the ice cream. But Anna liked overeating, and she might have more if he didn't watch her."Good job Dave. She needs to be more careful with her health." Rebecca, standing beside h

Then cheers and applauses filled the hall.It was indeed a favorable moment. And it lasted until night."It's a pleasure to finally meet the newest Mrs. Byrne." Alexander greeted Anna and took her hand to land a quick kiss, like how a gentleman met a lady for the first time. "My name is Alexander Green.""Oh!" Anna couldn't help but show her surprise. She heard a lot about him from Dave, but this was the first time they met in person."Based
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 124 - Time Of Being Together
She felt warm on her skin. Also, a soft and warm breeze brushed over her neck, bringing a shiver to her body. A second later, she sensed warmth moving on her swollen belly, rubbing it so gently as if fearing to wake her up."Hmm." She stirred from her sleep, the result of those doings. Only then did she realize hands wrapped around her, and she knew whose those were. "Dave." Her voice came throatily from sleep."I'm sorry I woke you up." He mumbled against the nook of her neck.She heard it but didn't want to answer him as her voice was stuck in her throat. But she couldn't do it anymore when her eyes fluttered open and dark welcomed her through a glass wall which gave a view of the dark sky. "It's still dark.""Yes.""What time is it?""It's past midnight.""Why aren't you sleeping?"Instead of replying, he tightened his arms and dug his face deeper into her neck. His hand slipped inside her nightdress and caressed her tummy. "I can't sleep.""Why?" She wriggled her body to turn arou
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 123 - What If I Die First
"The preparation is doing good, right?" Dave asked Eddie, General Manager of The Byrne Hotel in Los Angeles, as they took a look at the hall designated for his event to take place. It was still filled with other decorations, as it would be occupied for someone's event for tonight."Yes. We have everything that we need ready. Gifts also have arrived, and we're working to put them into goodie bags."Dave nodded his head in understanding. "Pack them nicely and make sure those are right for each occasion. Don't get confused." He gave further orders.As planned, they would split the event into two, the vow and the party. And because of that, they would use a separate hall, decorations, gifts for guests, food, and more. They had different preparation for each occasion."Sure. We have a lot of experience with these things. I assure you everything will be in expert hands. You can enjoy your time with your bride.""Okay. I trust you with this.""Yes."Then they walked together for a few minute
Secret Marriage With Billionaire Chapter 122 - A Dolphin
"I'm like a dolphin already!" Her voice echoed throughout the room. She was standing in front of the mirror, checking her appearance from the reflection. She wore an A-line midi dress in black, which fell nicely on her body. But it also made her baby bump visible."Says who?" Dave was walking toward her while buttoning his shirt."Me." She still focused on her own reflection, as if looking for something to satisfy her."Then you're wrong. You don't look like one at all." He slipped his arms around her waist. "Instead, you look sexier." He landed a kiss on her neck and began to stroke her stomach gently. It was almost six months, and the bump was pretty big."Don't lie to me, Dave. Look at me. Everything in my body is swollen now. Even my cheeks are full.""That's what makes you sexy, honey. I like how your body changes."She narrowed her eyes at his reflection. "Liar.""I'm not. I'm being honest with you.""I don't believe you."There was a sound of a sigh before he planted the last k
