Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 63 A tool for his mission.
***Julia sauntered into Asher's office, wearing her confidence on her shoulders so broad, he could see it.She grabbed a seat, plopped on it, and grinned at him.Asher could already tell the purpose for her coming, she had gotten the information quicker than he thought. He could have used her more if she had any more use on his quest to bring Ian down. His next goal was to get Ian completely terminated from Waltons and Julia had successfully become his key to achieving that goal.She had ticked that card for him."Here is the proof you wanted," she said, pushing a USB drive to his side of the desk. "Check it out and tell me what you think."Asher smirked, staring at her. If Ian found out what she had done, and how she meticulously framed him into confessing to his crimes, just to be with him instead, he would eventually lose his mind.Asher anticipated it like a movie. All he had to do was release the recording to the press anonymously and Ian was doomed for life. Knowing the kind of

***Just like Asher expected, the news of Ian's involvement with his wife, Julia, hit the top trending topic on every news outlet.Scrolling through the comments, he realized that the majority of them were in his favor. They expressed sympathy for him, especially with his condition, for having to go through such unfaithfulness from his wife, and betrayal from his brother. They wondered how he was coping with the brunt that came with such an experience.For this purpose, Asher had stalled the divorce with Julia. Both she and Ian deserved to suffer public shame before he publicly announced their divorce and then made Elena his official wife.His plan was perfectly falling in place.The public expressed disappointment in Ian and requested that he be punished for mocking Asher by having a secret affair with his wife."Fuck!" Ian groaned, flinging the tab across the room. His assistant rushed to pick it up and checked for damages."Who sent this? Who fucking put this up?!" He thundered."I

~Elena~***As my finger moved to swipe through the comments on the net, my expression slowly started to falter. Although some were in Asher's favor, some weren't, and the ones that weren't worried me because of the gravity of their accusations.Knowing the kind of person Asher was, if he saw these negative comments, I wondered if he would be okay. He cared too much about his ego and false speculations like this might weigh him down. I wondered if his strength would be able to take it.Amongst the negative write-ups, the majority of them speculated that the reason was Julia's affair with Ian was due to Asher's impotence.They added that he couldn't meet his wife's sexual needs, hence she sought satisfaction from his brother.The sarcastic comments further implied that Asher's position in Waltons was nothing if he couldn't satisfy his woman.They showed support for Julia and urged her to be strong.Reading through a list of these negativities that got more brutal as I scrolled, I could

~Asher~***With Walton Group's stock price continuously plummeting and losing value, I had no choice but to hold a press conference to speak on the situation.The moment I came out of the car, reporters swarmed around me like bees, clicking their camera shutters in my face and filling the air with endless questions."Concerning your wife's extramarital affair with your brother, which is a challenging phase for any man to go through, what conclusion have you arrived at?" One of the questions caught my attention, and it was what most of the reporters seemed interested in so I decided to answer it.As someone who already knew what to expect and what was expected of me, I kept a calm expression. I could tell that they were hoping to capture an image of me losing my temper and throwing a fit due to the hurt, they believed, I must be passing through from the heartbreak, and then craft a misleading headline to generate traffic for their respective websites.Amidst the tension, which was of

~Elena~***The living room looked the same as before the attack. There was no sign that a war had broken out in this exact place. It was perfectly patched with no error. The pillar that I had watched crumble to the ground by rains of bullets now stood strong in the same spot, everything was as beautiful as the first time I saw it.Walking further into the room, I sighted Asher and he smiled before signaling for me to come over."Did you wait for long? I'm sorry, it was hard picking out an outfit.""No, it was no wait at all. You look beautiful, you picked a perfect outfit." He complimented and my cheeks heated up."It's just an old dress that I have.." I let the words trail, realizing the explanation was unnecessary. "Thank you."Asher chuckled at my awkwardness before inviting me to the table."Here," he passed me a document. I picked it up and perused through it, before returning my gaze to him with a slight frown.The document contained proof of his and Julia's divorce. He had tol

***"Oh my goodness, it's so pretty!" Sunny exclaimed, her eyes holding glee."Right?" Elena smiled, reminiscing on the day before and basking all over in the emotions she felt when he proposed."Yes. Asher sure has eyes for good things. I was not expecting this." She emphasized, "I'm glad everything got rectified, and it's so refreshing to see you smile again, Elena.""Thank you, Sunny. You have been such a good friend the entire time, even though I kept pushing you away." Elena admitted."I knew you weren't like that. You're a good person, I've seen it and that was the reason I didn't back down. I've always wanted to be your friend.""Always wanted?" Elena's brows squinted."You think I was lying when I told you that we have met before now?""I truly don't recall.""Of course, you wouldn't. It's not like we were friends or anything close, I just admired you from afar. We were classmates in high school. I couldn't go close because of Julia, I feared she might hurt me for wanting to b

***"Master," Tony waved a cell phone at Asher "it's Drew. He found them.""Where?" Asher asked, throwing his attention to him."An abandoned car factory on the outskirts of town. He sent a GPS." Tony revealed.At once, they hopped in the car and Tony zoomed off to the location, following the GPS.Asher was nervous and scared, it showed in his every action and he continuously glanced at the time. Within him, he prayed for Elena's safety and hoped to get there in time to stop Ian from carrying out his evil act.They arrived at the location in time and were immediately accosted by some bodyguards. Tony tried to fight them but after taking out three of the men, he was weakened to the floor."Let go of me!" Asher grunted as they held him down on the seat. "Ian!" He started to yell, "Come out and face me, you bastard!"A cackle sounded before Ian stepped out, a mockery grin on his face."Whoa Asher," he clapped, "if you weren't crippled, I would have thought you developed wings and flew to

~Elena~***I regained consciousness a week later and the first thing I saw was an empty wheelchair. I felt something intertwined with my fingers and I looked down to find Asher fast asleep on the foot of the bed, our fingers intertwined.I thought of waking him up but seeing the tired lines on the face and heavy bags under his eyes, I couldn't bring myself to. I could only imagine the amount of sleep he must have deprived himself of until now, because of me.My gaze moved to the wheelchair again and I recovered the rest of my memory about the incident. Asher walked.I wasn't sure if I thought out loud but Asher suddenly stirred in his sleep and his eyes fluttered open. He squinted, ensured he wasn't hallucinating and then yanked to his feet."You're awake," he said, a flash of worry and relief in his eyes. "Thank goodness."My body dangled in the air. My lips were torn open by Julia's manhandling. I was almost unconscious. Asher arrived. I could barely open my eyes but I heard his vo

***"Asher!" Grandpa Schaeffer exclaimed before pulling Asher in for a close hug. "Hey there, Elena," he passed her a slight smile.Elena accepted it, concluding that it was preferable to the other times when he completely ignored her presence.His eyes dropped to her stomach, and she watched his smile grow. He was fond of doing that, but wouldn't openly admit how he couldn't wait to hold his great grandkids in his arms."The babies are doing okay?" He asked, his smile dying as he brought his eyes up to her."They're fine," Elena smiled widely. Asher chuckled at his grandfather's effort to appear mean to Elena. He knew that he hadn't fully forgiven her for lying to them but he also knew that Schaeffer didn't hate her. Even before he found out about Elena's secret, he liked her a lot and praised her for taking care of his disabled son.This was their last get-together before Asher departed for his surgery. At the table, Ian's mother was already seated, looking like she wanted to be any
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 99 Good-byes.
~Elena~***Her house was an apartment, with a simple bathroom and an ensuite. In her living room, a corner was demarcated with drapery as her kitchenette and another as her bedroom.In the room was a small unmade bed, and her sitting room, which was the largest part of the house, had a small TV, a radio, a fridge, and two sofas.Her eyes were on me right from the moment we walked in.Harold was already by her side and I saw how sick she was. Unnaturally, she looked lean. Staring at her, one could instantly tell that she used to be a chubby woman. She wore a cap and leaned on Harold's shoulder, but I could see that she didn't have any hair on her head. Her eyebrows were very thin, almost without any hair and her eyes looked tired even though she wore a smile. A beautiful smile."Elena," that was her first word to me and I noticed the similarity in our voices. She was a beautiful woman and I had physically taken after her. Asher's arm was around me, proving to me that he was always by
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 98 The truth.
~Elena~***"You cheat!" I hit Asher in the chest, pouting my lips, "that's not fair."He giggled, reaching to peck me but I covered his lips with my palm, rejecting his kisses."That was the best one!" I complained, staring into the empty cookie bowl with a frown, "you're so childish.""Now, you're mad over a cookie?" He asked, holding my hands."You promised you'd give it to me, but you ate it. I can't forgive you," my hormones kicked in and I felt tears gathering in my eyes.That was my greatest defense and Asher immediately opened his fist to reveal the cookie. "I didn't eat it, I was just messing with you. Please don't cry." He looked utterly concerned. "I'm sorry, I was only kidding." He cupped my face, wiping my eyes.I threw the cookie into my mouth and pecked his face. "Got you.""You sneaky woman!" He grumbled, and we ended up laughing. His fingers worked on my legs, giving me the best massage while he called a maid to get us more cookies."By the way, Grandpa wants us to co
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 97 No more misunderstanding.
~Asher~***Over the next few months, Elena stayed by my side, doing her best to take care of me until I fully recovered. Our relationship had developed over time and in every aspect, and I was elated about it.Now, I could hold Elena without being afraid of the spite in her eyes when I looked at them, and she would assist me whenever I got tired due to my bedridden state. It was blissful. It was all I ever looked forward to since our misunderstanding.Elena had stepped out of my study room, leaving me and the gang to discuss. It was the first time we were having a meeting in my house, and they all had to come looking ordinary to avoid suspicions. It was also the first time we were collectively meeting since my discharge from the hospital."What did you find out?" I asked Ricky."D.H Entertainment exists but it belongs to Penelope's family. It's their biggest investment. She lied about the ownership, and acted like her job was at stake so she could get preferential treatment from you.
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 96 A genuine second chance.
~Asher~***"Asher, can you see me?"I felt a light tug and then the voice came again, jerking me fully to consciousness."Oh my goodness, Asher! You're awake!" Footsteps followed.I recognized the face after a full minute of staring blankly at it, it was my grandfather."Grandpa," I mumbled and his face softened into a warm smile."That's right, son. It's me," he nodded, sobbing. "I'm so glad you're awake."I rolled my eyes, looking amongst the other people in the room for her but she was not there. I blinked and then tried again but I couldn't find her.I was sure that I saved her, I wouldn't have been able to go without ensuring her safety first. It was unlike me.Did I imagine it? I frowned the thought off. I definitely got her out!"Where is Elena?" I asked, bringing my gaze to rest on my grandfather. I asked him again when he said nothing."She's alive, right? I saved her. I'm sure that I saved her.""You did. She is alive." Richard spoke."Son, don't worry about her right now."
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 95 Jeremy.
~Elena~***I stood outside the ICU ward where Asher was kept, staring at him through the window with tubes connected all over his body. I could faintly hear the sound of beeping machines.He looked so fragile and pale, not like the domineering and omnipotent Asher I knew that had overpowered me a number of times. He looked different, almost lifeless. The only source of life I saw in him was the many stuff connected to his body, the fact that they were still functioning proved that Asher was still in there fighting for his life.A pang of sorrow slashed my heart. Again, he sacrificed himself to save me. He discarded his own life to ensure I kept mine.If this was the first time it was happening, I probably would have concluded that he did it to save his baby's life, but it wasn't. I've never seen anyone care more about someone else's life than theirs, and I've never heard of anyone who performed such an act of kindness to someone they didn't care about.Can a man like that, who has ri
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 94 A casualty.
~Elena~**I sped towards the airport, my determination and anger soaring. Asher's action this time was inexcusable. How could he betray me with Julia knowing fully well what I thought of her?Even though I meant nothing to him, my sanity matters for his child to be safe. How could I successfully take care of our child, if my mental health wasn't guaranteed? This wasn't about me, but the child.Repeatedly, I dabbed tears from my eyes and sniffed but I didn't bother stopping or slowing down.Soon, I recognized Asher's car speeding up behind me. I expected this but there was no way he was going to convince me. My mind was made up this time and except Asher was willing to explain to the world how mentally disturbed he was, and how he locked me up in a dungeon, or how he ceased my freedom, he better not try to stop me.His car was giving me a hot chase and although I wasn't a very experienced driver, I tried to outrun him. I swerved in between cars and gave him no chance to directly get t
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 93 No stopping her.
~Julia's POV~***His hands groped my waist as he pressed the upper part of my body into the bed, I arched my back for his comfort. I felt his thigh against my behind as he slid into me again, jerking me up to deepen his entrance. He grunted and paced up at the same time, riding me with a slow then successive pace.His fingers dug into the skin of my waist as he prepared to release, his body vibrating against mine.I smirked as the pleasure wavered off, glancing at the camera I had installed in the corner of the room unbeknownst to him. Ian was too carried away with the pleasure to even notice what I had done and I doubt he would have even suspected that I could do something like this.I just couldn't let Elena be. I've got to try out all my cards first before I decide if I should give up, trying to destroy her marriage, or not. I had thought the fabricated pictures were enough to break her and Asher up or cause a deep rift but instead, she came out pregnant.They had been fuckin whil
Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me Chapter 92 Opening up to her.
~Elena~***I opened my eyes to a bright light shining on my face. A few blinks fixed my discomfort and soon I adjusted to the ray of sunshine seeping from the opened window.I looked around the white room I was in and soon realized that I was in a hospital ward. The last place I remembered being in was in Asher's horrifying dungeon and the last sound I remembered was the sound of my scream as the door clicked shut and Asher stomped away.I tried to think of what happened after when the door went open and Flynn walked in."Thank goodness you're awake, ma'am," he said, looking relieved. "I was just about to contact the young master.""What happened?" I asked."I didn't know, we found you unconscious and brought you to the hospital. Thankfully, it's nothing serious."After Asher left, I suddenly felt nauseous being locked up in his dungeon. I couldn't help but wonder if he had locked anyone else in there in the past. The thought was horrifying. Was he always this kind of person?I wonde
