“What's the new report? She have been missing for more a than forty eight hours now.”

“I can't find her anywhere. I have placed a missing person advert everywhere you can think of, but it hasn't yielded any effort".

.

"I thought you asked her to go back home for the day”. Julian said, looking up from his laptop with a worried expression on his face.

“What do you mean? She was there a few minutes before getting into her car to leave. I watched her leave.” Damon muttered, pacing up and down with his thoughts raging wild.

“Maybe she got annoyed and left for somewhere to calm her mind down. Women can be a lot to handle at times.” Julian suggested, smiling a bit as he tried to calm the situation down.

“No, she wouldn't do that. She's stubborn, fierce and all that, but she listens.” Damon countered, still at a loss as he tried to know she went to.

“She can do that, she wouldn't have expected the wedding so soon. It came as a shock to me too. I wasn't expecting something like that.”

    “Yes, sir. It would be ready as soon as possible, I was waiting for your confirmation before I would proceed with the necessary closure.” Nate answered, grinning from ear to ear as he was happy that Damon his boss have finally accepted the proposal he have been working on for months now. “Sure, send it across to me as soon as possible.”“Thank you sir, should I also print it out or I should only send to your mail?” Nate asked, but he closed his mouth immediately realizing he had just asked something dumb.“Send as mail and also bring the file in five copies for the board and .” Damon replied calmly shocking the whole staff who was used to his ignoring self, lying back on his chair signalling that the meeting was over.The workers bowed and left the conference beaming with smiles, an approved proposal always means raise in bonus. They all left except Scarlett who have been usually quiet and it was pricking him but he couldn't say anything to her that would make her know his feeling

    A knock on the door and Scarlett hissed, grumbling as she made to ignore then it occured to her that it was her supposed wedding day.“F*ck!” Scarlett swore silently, and she got up walking towards the door when she remembered that she haven't brushed her teeth. And there's no way she would speak to anyone without washing away the stench.“Give me few minutes please, I'm coming.” Scarlett screamed, and she ran into the bathroom picking up her brush to brush her teeth when she looked up to her expression on the mirror.She looked so much worn out and her eyes lacked the warmth it usually possess, because she have been thinking about her safety all this while.That woman, Rose would stop at nothing to take back Damon and that she had conveyed out. Not like she cared about him, but she knew in the process of snatching back Damon she might get hurt.“No…… Why does it have to be me? What's my offense?” Scarlett asked, getting disgusted by her reflection so she avoided gazing into it

    “Why are you asking? Do you know anyone by that name?" Scarlett asked, her blood running faster then the streams in a way that needed urgent medical attention. She was scared that Rose will take out her threats, which means she would be killed for something she had no say in. “Ah!! Yes, just outside the house. She was sitting in her car talking to a man with an annoyed expression on her face, suddenly I saw your fiance walking towards her with anger in his eyes.He had been warning her strictly not to try anything stupid as he won't let her go scoff free. That's when I had heard him mention her name.” Hilda explained, not having any other thoughts.But Scarlett's mind was already getting faster than a plane take off, she couldn't sit still anymore.“We are done. You look enthralling and amazing, I can't believe you are a human. You look so perfect, maybe you aren't one but at least I will add that to my qualifications." Hilda joked, and I smiled not being able to ignore her jokes as

    “Don't make any excuses. You were supposed to tell me about my stepson, that was the right thing to do. Or was he with his mother? Is she still alive?" Scarlett asked, her eyes gleaming with anger as she clenched her fist in annoyance. “Woman, keep your emotions in check or I would do that for you. " Damian replied, his tone sounded amusing which infuriated Scarlett as she couldn't pinpoint what was actually wrong with him..“Would you stop snickering? I'm trying all I can not to walk out here, you think your money would buy my respect. No Damian, you earn it." Scarlett replied, and she put on a sad smile as she looked at the MC who was saying something amusing that got the crowd looking at them with laughter choking some. I rather hope that Damian would choke on the wine he was raising to his lips. He smiled, chucking a bit as I shot his arrows with my eyes. “You want me to see me choke? You are behaving like a wife already and as much as that's funny. I would like you to know th

    “Rose. I was drunk and I would have never done something like that to my best friend. You disgust me to the point that I'm still irritated.You also know that you caused what made Damian to fall out of love with you, he's married to a very beautiful and respectful woman.Someone you can never be.” Julian snapped, smirking as Rose's face distorted into a frown as Julian's words had hit a spine. “You will beg me and I will make sure of that. That aside, you would have to go to Damian and convince him that I am innocent. That the sex was fake and only implemented to get him annoyed and hurt, to make him feel the same emotions I had felt when he had made me feel by having a child with another woman. And still getting married to another, that added more salt to the injury.” Rose said, wiping the lone tear that threatened to stream down her cheeks."You should have listened to him, but I'm not explaining anything to you.

    CHAPTER ONE: AARON’S SURGERYSCARLETT’S POVToday is the day I decide to carry another man's child in my womb, while still married to my husband, Aaron.I know it sounds so crazy, but I have thought of a thousand reasons to back out of this decision, yet nothing else holds me down as much as the fear of losing my husband. The last time I spoke to the doctor, I was warned that if Aaron didn't get a surgical operation within the next four weeks, he would be at risk of dying.The burden to raise the money for his surgery fell solely on my shoulders, and his mother wasn't taking it easy on me at all as she told everyone who cared to listen that I was the reason behind her son's misfortune. She never accepted me as her daughter-in-law, anyways.When I first saw news of an unknown billionaire who needed a woman to bear a child for him through surrogacy, I had applied nonchalantly, without any expectations.Early this morning, a strange number called me, informing me of my scheduled intervi

A voice asked, jolting me out of my thoughts.I looked up at the masked man before me and it felt like my tongue had been tied, because I wasn't even able to speak. Rather, I shook my head, and started to cough.He leaned back on his chair, folding his arms across his chest. I knew he was watching me through the mask and worry gnawed through me."I asked you a question." He said.I let out a harsh breath and mumbled, "Yes, yes. I am very sure about this. What are the terms of the contract, please?""Almost everything has been stated in the document you shall sign next week. However, I have to make certain things clear."I bobbed my head as I clenched my fists, waiting for him to continue. At this point, I was ready to do just anything, as long as I got the money for my husband's surgery."Are you married?" He blurted.The question threw me aback as I wondered if my response would make me to lose this deal.."Uh! Yes..yes..oh

The two lines were boldly visible on the strip, confirming what I already knew."Finally. it's real" I muttered under my breath, breaking into tears.I was pregnant with the masked man's baby. I had spent the last few weeks, living in complete fear of not not being able to get pregnant, despite how much I had been paid.I was even more worried that the masked billionaire would silently kill me here in Italy and no one would know. Well, no one actually cared enough to call me, even after I left the country.There was a sickening feeling at the pit of my stomach as I rubbed my flat belly, trying to imagine what my child looked like. Would the child turn out to have a striking resemblance with the masked billionaire, or with me, its mother? I was consumed with worry that I might never know the gender of the child in my womb, as the masked man made it cl

    “ I don't know why you are going this far when I agreed to. If you haven't lost that deal, you wouldn't have been doing this and I won't be stuck with you.” Damon said, trying to gaslight Scarlett who felt bad immediately. “Why are you always behaving this way? What rong did I do to deserve this?” Scarlett asked, as she kept on seeing more ridiculous clauses. “You made me lose a multi million dollars deals, do you know how much more that would have added to my portfolio. You made my company look like a joke to them all and you expect me to let it slide like that?” Damon asked, weirdly calm with his hands placed on his desk in a very comfortable position as she stared at i with her lips left ajar.“I know, and I'm paying dearly for it, I would have to stand you for a whole year..” That came out before Scarlett gave it a proper thought, but she clasped her hand over her mouth the moment she had realized her mistake.Damon wasn't pleased with her sassy reply but he didn't mention it so

    Good morning sir." Scarlett greeted, looking gorgeous in her gown and well-tucked and professional looking hair which caused Damon to stare her a lot longer than how he did.“Morning," Damon replied, without looking up as I dropped his coffee just the way I noticed he liked. He took it without saying a word of acknowledgement to me and took a sip without an expression on his face. . “Prepare the conference room in less than two hours; they should be here, and you would have to listen attentively to everything that would be said in the meeting. Make no mistakes so we won't lose any valuable information.”"Yes sir,” Scarlett replied, walking out of Damon's office with her heels clicking on the spotless marble tiles. " He doesn't have to be that cold; at least a thank you for the coffee is enough,” Scarlett muttered, not noticing that Damon was standing at the door of his office. “Thank you for the coffee," Damon said, surprising the wits out of Scarlett and she gasped.

What does that even mean?” Scarlett asked, looking visibly confused.“Okay, calm down, Scarlett. There's an explanation to all of this,” Damon said.“Then start explaining immediately, because I don't get how you just met me for the first time today and you're asking me to be your pretend wife — whatever that means,” Scarlett said.Damon sighed heavily. He knew it'd be hard, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult. He wished Julian was here to save him.“My last relationship failed. We had a misunderstanding because I had to do a sur—” he paused immediately. Was he about giving himself away right now? “Scratch that. I got into a venture my ex didn't support and she wasn't patient enough to understand what I was trying to do, and then she cheated. I had to break up,” he said.Scarlett was losing her patience
