The Billionaire CEO And His Substitute Wife chapter 55
Chapter 55The image of Emmy walking in the rain like she had lost all the will to live kept on replaying in his mind.She was walking so aimlessly that even if a careless driver had been on the road, then…Vince shook his head to remove the scary thoughts in his head.He touched his clothes which were still wet and remembered how Emmy had cried so brokenheartedly. His gaze was filled with darkness and his bloodthirsty nature that he had kept locked away was threatening to surge forth like a hurricane.Even though Emmy had not said anything, he had pieced one and two together and realized that it was the day she was supposed to switch back with Lynn.Instead, they bullied his wife and even injured her. Vince clenched his hands into fists. He was not a nice person, and he had never even tried to be nice. He was going to make sure that anyone who laid a hand on his wife paid the ultimate price.From where he was standing, he could see the pained look on Emmy’s face. He could tell from a

Chapter 56Sheila paused. She looked at Lynn and a scheming look flashed through her eyes, “I am sure that once Emmy starts filming, Vince will go and pay her visit. How about you use this opportunity and lay a trap for Vince?”“What do you mean?” Lynn was confused as she had no idea what her manager was talking about.“I mean, you make a plan and do something. If you sleep with him first, Emmy would not be able to do anything.”Lynn looked at Sheila in surprise, “Sleep with him?”“Yes, Lynn. We don’t know what is really going on between those two, and we sitting here and guessing is pointless. Emmy was provoked so much today, and what if in a state of anger, she decides to sleep with Vince just to get back at you?”Lynn thought for a moment and realized that what Sheila said made sense. If she were Emmy, she would not have resisted throwing herself at someone like Vince. She was even starting to wonder if her sister was normal, or if she was just playing tricks.Nina’s words must hav

Chapter 57He had built this empire with his sweat and blood and he could not watch it be destroyed just like that.…At Vince’s mansion…Emmy still had her eyes closed. The doctor had already come over and tended to her.Since her fever was high, he placed her on IVF.Vince sat on the other side of the bed. He gently held Emmy’s hand, transmitting his body’s warmth to her.Looking at the feverish and pale face that was slowly getting back to normal, Vince was so relieved.The doctor said that it was just a fever and nothing more. So, once it came down, then Emmy would be fine.“Emmy, come back to me. You have brought so much light and color into this dull life of mine, so please do not take that away from me. You know, I have realized one thing today, you mean so much to me than I could ever imagine.”Vince spoke as he looked at Emmy tenderly. His gaze was so warm and tender that it spread warmth across the room.After a while, a knock came from the door, followed by Lisa’s voice, “M

Chapter 58Lisa looked at them and spoke, “You both cannot go in just yet.”Both Jonathan and Nina stopped in their tracks. They were puzzled as they could not understand what was going on.The door had been opened but they could not go in. What was the meaning of that?Lisa looked at their animated expressions and sneered. She handed them a pair of disposable shoes and raincoats expressionless, “Master Young said that he does not want you guys to dirty his wife’s house, so kindly put them on.”Jonathan and Nina were dumbstruck. They could not make sense of what was happening.Just how much did Vince despise them?He was not treating them like they were his in-laws.Forget it. The company’s benefits came first than any relationship.Disregarding his self-respect, Jonathan took the shoes and the raincoat and put them on. Seeing that her husband had compromised, Nina could not say anything even if she wanted to.But she promised herself that she was going to remember this humiliation.I

Chapter 59Vince slightly tapped his fingers on the sofa arm. After a deep contemplation, he looked at the two people in front of him and spoke, “Lynn told me that she really likes the villa at Peachwood owned by the Sharma family…”As soon as Jonathan heard Vince, he understood what he wanted.“Mr. Young, the villa at Peachwood is vacant and it has never been occupied. If Lynn really likes it then she can have it.”Nina had a bad feeling when she heard that.Wasn’t the villa at Peachwood the place she was hiding Leo, Emmy’s father?How did Emmy came to know about it? If Jonathan gave her the villa, the she would be in so much trouble.She hurriedly grabbed Jonathan’s hand, “Jonathan, listen to me, you can’t…”Before she could finish her statement, Jonathan shushed her, “Why do you talk so much? Just shut and don’t say anything else.”Jonathan shook off her hand, almost making Nina to fall to the ground, “Why did you not mention it earlier that Lynn likes that villa. If she really lik

Chapter 60Nina was so scared that her legs were wobbly. Was this her last day on earth.Thinking about all the struggle she had to endure for her to reach where she was today, Nina felt like crying.Everything was over!“Quickly come out. You know that Vince has to go back and tend to Lynn.”Vince looked at Nina coldly. From her reaction, he could tell that his guess was right. Leo must be hidden in this villa.He did not want to waste time as he quickly spoke, “Is there anyone inside? I will go and take a look.”Jonathan did not think much as he said, “Yes. There are usually maids cleaning the house. Go ahead and take a look and if you think that it is okay, then Lynn can even move in tomorrow.”He walked over and opened the door using his fingerprint. The two men entered the house while Nina slowly dragged her lifeless body behind them.As she watched the two men climb the stairs, she spoke in a nervous voice, “Jon, no one stays upstairs, is there a need for us to go there?”Vince

Chapter 61The next morning…Emmy woke up feeling weak all over. Her body was lethargic and her head was pounding really hard.As Emmy was about to get up, she realized that something was wrong. She turned her head and was so shocked to see Vince sleeping next to her.Emmy widened her eyes as her heart beat fast.Why the hell was Vince sleeping next to her?Feeling that someone was looking at him, Vince suddenly opened his eyes. He leisurely pulled the duvet down, revealing his tantalizing chest.He looked at Emmy and chuckled, “You are up?”Emmy’s hazel eyes widened in shock as she looked at Vince like he was some sought of hooligan. Her voice was hoarse as she asked, “What did you do to me last night?”Vince frowned when he heard her question. He sat up and rested his head on the head bed, revealing his well shaped abs.Emmy felt her cheeks heat up at that sight and she could not help but glare at the man. But it was only for a second before her eyes traveled down there. It was as i

Chapter 62Emmy opened the wardrobe, stunned by what she saw. It was filled with different kinds of clothes, including bras and women's wear. Her face flushed, and she did not dare look at Vince.Vince chuckled upon seeing the blush on Emmy’s face, “My dear wife, it would ideal to go out while wearing some clothes that was why I had those prepared.”Emmy hurriedly picked up some clothes before she rushed to the bathroom and closed the door with a bang.She could not stand Vince’s teasing.When Emmy put on the clothes, she was puzzled. Although the clothes were bought by Vince, they fit her perfectly as if someone had taken her measurements before buying them.She looked down at herself and almost burst into tears.If she continued to insist that nothing happened between her and Vince last night, then she might be fooling herself.He must have measured her when they were….“No… no… stop it already.” Emmy slapped her head to remove the ridiculous thoughts in her mind.After she was done

Chapter 189Emmy and Vince were strolling on the beach when Vince suddenly stripped and fell down. Emmy quickly went to help him up, but Vince changed the position, and he suddenly knelt on one knee.Emmy was surprised, and she was about to support him when a beautiful ring appeared in her line of sight out of nowhere.Her mind blanked as she looked at Vince, her eyes widened, “What are you doing?”“Emmy, I have been to almost every part of this world. I have interacted with royalties and ordinary people alike. I have seen many beautiful ladies, but you, my dear, you are different. The moment I laid my eyes on you, I knew that I wanted you for life.”“You are beautiful, you are talented, you are kind, you love with your whole heart, how could I not want to spend the rest of my life with you? I never for once searched for love, but you made me effortlessly love you.”“I hear people saying that finding true love in this complicated world is just an illusion, but I found true love in you

Chapter 188Daniel was excited when the Roberts finally called him. He even took his father along.“Father, we are finally going to become in-laws with the Roberts family. I am so excited that I can’t wait.”“Son, you have done a good job. I am so proud of you.”…At the Roberts family…Lynn had been locked in her room for the past two days. No matter what she did, she was not allowed to leave the mansion. Her phone had also been confiscated, and she could not call anyone for help.Although she was being provided with food and everything she needed, she had become haggard due to stress. Her father had not come to visit her even once, and she was very tense.Lynn finally heaved a sigh of relief when the servants came to call her, “Lynn, the Second Master wants to see you. Quickly freshen up and head to the living room.”Lynn was excited. Finally, she was getting out of this room. She was going to complain to her father just how inhumane she had been treated for the past few days.Lynn

Chapter 187Old Mrs. Roberts was almost in tears as she looked at her son, “My dear son, are you okay?”Leo looked at his mother with tears in his eyes. He could not believe that he had finally regained his memories. The first thing he spoke about after opening his eyes was Emmy.“Mom, I want to see Emmy. I want to see her right away.”Old Mrs. Roberts was confused, “Son, what are you talking about? Why do you want to see Emmy after everything she did to you?”“Mom, I will explain everything to you later. But I have to see Emmy right away. Also, make sure that Lynn does not go anywhere. Don’t let her leave the Roberts mansion at any cost.”Although Mrs. Roberts was confused, she still nodded her head. She went to her husband and conveyed her son’s message.Old Mr. Roberts did not express much. He looked like he had expected it, “Let us do as he says.”Lynn had left the hospital before her father woke up. Since the doctors had said that the surgery was a success, there was no doubt tha

Chapter 186A few days had passed, and Daniel had not received any positive feedback from Layla. He was on the verge of losing his mind.“Layla, what is your father saying? The media is making fun of you. What are you going to do about it?”“Daniel, I cannot give you a reply right now. My uncle would be undergoing surgery to try and regain his memories, my dad is also busy looking through what exactly happened the other night, so please, I appreciate your concern, but you have to be patient, and wait for a little while.”“After helping you and even saving your life, this is what I get in return. I even offered to take responsibility for what happened, but you are still delaying things?”Layla was about to reply when her father’s voice sounded from behind, “Who is on the phone?”Layla turned around, “Dad… it… It is nothing.”“Give me the phone.”Layla had no choice but to hand the phone to her father. Andrew took the phone and spoke in a cold voice, “You bastard, are you forcing my dau

What made her cry even harder was the fact that she could not remember a thing.“Gosh, why did this have to happen to me? How am I going to face anyone from today onwards?”Daniel looked at the bathroom door that was tightly closed and smiled contentedly. Now, he would be like a hero to the Roberts family, and he was sure that they would fulfill all his wishes.He took his phone and texted Lynn, “We are about to leave. I hope the reporters are on standby.”Lynn’s reply came almost immediately, “They have been outside the room the entire night, don’t worry, they won’t go away so easily.”Daniel also took a shower. He did not want to raise any suspicion, especially now that his plan was almost successful.The moment he opened the hotel door, the reporters surrounded them.Daniel appeared shocked as he drew Layla into his arms. He looked at the reporters and question

Chapter 184“I remember you, you are Lynn’s brother, right?”Daniel nodded.“How the hell did this happen? My mind is so messed up, and I don’t remember anything.”Daniel looked at her and smiled secretly. The person who sold him the drug had said that it would be hard for the person who took it to remember anything. Their memories would be all over the place, and it seemed that he had been right about it.“Well, I don’t know if you are going to believe me or not, but I saved your life yesterday night.”“What do you mean you saved my life? What exactly happened? Can you please speak up!”Daniel started to narrate the story that he had formed with Lynn.“All that happened without my knowledge?” Layla asked in a disbelieving tone.“I found you in the washroom, and you were almost out of breath. I recognized you and helped you to your room. I just never imagined that…”Layla held her face in her hands. She was so confused that she did not know what to do.If what Daniel said was true, sh

Chapter 183With the Roberts family intervention, the scandal surrounding Lynn was quietened down. Since Vince had not made another move, her tensed heart also calmed down.Just as she thought that she had dodged the bullet and she would have a few peaceful days, Daniel called her, “Lynn, we only have two days until Friday, what is your plan?”Remembering everything she had been through and the obvious doubt that the Roberts family had against her, Lynn did not think that she would be able to pull it off.“Daniel, can we do this some other time, please? I have been through a lot of troubles lately; I don’t think that I will be able to pull this off.”Daniel was quiet for a minute before he spoke up, “In that case, I will just forward this video to every member of the Roberts family, or should I just post it online?”Lynn felt like crying after hearing that. She gritted her teeth and spoke, “Daniel, please, don’t do this to me. I will help you. I will make arrangements. Just be there, o

Chapter 182Lynn was forced out of her room by the members of the Roberts family. Old Mr. Roberts wanted to oust her from the house right there and then, but Leo stopped him.“Dad, we should listen to what Lynn has to say. What if she is being framed?”Seeing that there were hopes for her to redeem herself, Lynn fell to her knees and hugged Leo’s legs. As long as her father still believed in her, she would have the chance to turn things around.“Dad, I am so sad. I don’t know what I did to deserve all these. I wonder what Emmy really wants with my life.”“What do you mean?” Old Mrs. Roberts glared at her with cold eyes. Her family had never faced such humiliation all these years, and because of her, they were now being roasted by the media.“Dad, I am innocent. I did not do anything. I have been staying home all this time, how could I know all these bad people? I think that Emmy did it on purpose. She wanted to frame me.”“And why would Emmy do that, huh?” Old Mr. Roberts asked.

Five minutes later, a phone ringtone broke the deadly silence in the room.“Bring it to me.”The goons had been beaten black and blue, and they had no way of resisting. The phone was handed to Vince, who picked it up and put it on loudspeaker.Lynn’s excited voice came through the phone, “Any updates? Is the job done? Have you already dealt with the bitch?”No one spoke on the other side of the phone. Lynn got frustrated and shouted, “Can’t you hear me? Have you gone deaf? I haven’t received a single picture or video from you. Is the job done or not?”After what seemed like forever, Vince’s cold voice came through the speaker, “Lynn Roberts, right? I see that you have grown wings after joining the Roberts family. Do they know what you have been up to?”Lynn was so shocked that her whole body
