The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate A Fresh Face
After the interview with Anna and Tristan, there was a break before Jacob and Emma were to be called. As soon as Anna walked down, Emma ran to her. “That was amazing, Anna. You and Tristan make a fine couple!” Emma praised. She then turned to her husband who was a few steps away from her and asked. “Don’t you agree, Jacob?” She asked with a bright smile. She had noticed that there was something off with him that day. Jacob wasn’t the type who always had things to say but he gave compliments when needed, especially if an important person like Tristan Reyes was before him. There was something wrong. “Yes, of course. Anna is a beautiful woman after all. Mr Reyes is a lucky man.” He said and both Tristan and Emma’s brows creased out of surprise. Emma was shocked to hear him call Anastasia ‘Anna’ when they weren’t that close. She had only gotten close enough to call her ‘Anastasia’ which was her full name so, she wondered when he got so close to being able to call her ‘Anna’. Tristan

The next day, Anna woke up in high spirits. She was looking forward to visiting the Wade mansion, not because she had any love for the family but, because her son was in there. She freshened up quickly and made her way to the breakfast table. As usual, Shayne was already seated but, she wasn’t alone this time.“Good morning, Anna.” Tristan greeted without looking at her. He was fully dressed for work and even had his keys in front of him. Anna wondered why he hadn’t already left just like before.“Good morning, Tristan.” She returned his greeting and settled down beside Shayne who was staring at the both of them through her lashes.“Finally! A normal breakfast.” Shayne said sarcastically and clapped, hoping to get rid of the awkward tension between her sister and Tristan. Neither of them said anything, avoiding eye contact like their lives depended on it.“Hmm.” Shayne hummed and shook her head, concluding that the both of them were completely hopeless.A few minutes into breakfast, A

Shayne arrived at Reyes Entertainment at exactly ten in the morning since she had a shoot at 11 am. When she arrived, a few of the other trainee models were already having their shoots and training. As usual, the place was packed so, she immediately went into the dressing room to wait for her name to be called. A few minutes into her shoot, she got a call from the manager, Mathew Lee through one of the makeup artists and she went to his office but, he wasn’t there. As she walked out, she saw one of the workers there and quickly pulled her. “Have you seen Mr Lee?” She asked and the worker immediately nodded. “I was just about to come tell you but it skipped my mind. You are needed at the conference room.” She said and Shayne’s heart skipped. Most times, when models were needed in the conference room, they were either about to get fired or get moved to another company or country for work which would eventually change their lives. She hoped it was the latter. “Thank you.” Shayne

“Wait, Shannie. Doesn’t Jacqueline work for Nathan Wade at Wades Fashion House?” Anna asked and Shayne’s face fell immediately. “What?” She asked with a terrified look on her face. The last thing she wanted was to get entangled with Wade. Working at Wade's fashion house would mean that Nathan Wade would be her boss. “Fucking hell, Anna! Are you sure?” Shayne asked, biting her lips nervously. Her excitement had suddenly flown out the window and she now found herself wondering if it would be right to work with Jacqueline knowing that she would be indirectly working for the Wades. “I swear, Shannie. Wait, let me confirm.” Anna quickly opened her laptop and searched for Jacqueline’s name on the internet. The first thing she saw was her standing beside Nathan Wade. The dark-haired beauty had her hands linked with Nathan and rested on his shoulder as they posed for the camera. Underneath the picture wrote ‘ Jacqueline and business partner, Nathan Wade at the Paris fashion show 2021.’ “Go

“Well well well, Miss Wellington. We meet again.” Nathan tucked his hands in his pockets and gave Shayne a flirty smile. “Such a small world, isn't it?” He added and Shayne held herself from making a rude comment. All through the ride to his company, she kept preparing herself and making sure her sharp mouth was in check. “I look forward to working with you, Mr Wade.” She said in a professional tone and kept a stern expression. “I don't think being polite suits you. I like you more when you're fiery.” Nathan revealed, clicking his tongue and shaking his head in disapproval. ‘I don’t care what you like, Nathan Wade!’ Shayne said in her thoughts but smiled in reality and looked at the door, praying that Jacqueline would return soon. Thankfully, Jacqueline walked into the office with two ladies and two other men who were a part of the planning team for the project. “I apologize for the delay, Shayne. Please, sit.” Jacqueline said and sat on one of the sofas in Nathan’s office while t

“You’re his mother, aren’t you?” Carla asked, pointing at Rowan. Anna’s eyes widened out of shock and she tensed up.“W-what are you talking about?” She cleared her throat and asked casually, putting on a nonchalant look. She didn’t know if she could trust Carla since she worked for the Wades so, she didn’t want to tell her the truth.Carla looked at Rowan’s face and then back at hers before nodding with a smile on. “You are his mother.” She whispered and moved closer to Anna.“I had my suspicions the last time visited.” Carla started. “You see, I have been taking care of Rowan since he was five days old and I have never seen him have a connection with any of his family members, including his supposed mother like he had with you the first time he met you.” Carla smiled and patted his back softly.“I don’t know how they cannot see it. It’s not just the resemblance between you too, it’s the connection you both have. He called you ‘mama’ immediately after he laid his eyes on you. That wa

AT WADES FASHION HOUSE Two hours later, the meeting came to an end and Shayne couldn't control the smile on her face. It was a dream come true for her so, she couldn't wait to start. Since the deal was between the two companies, the contract was going to be signed by her manager back at Reyes Entertainment. “I should be on my way now. Thank you so much for the opportunity, Jacqueline.” Shayne stood up and hugged Jacqueline who returned the hug happily. “Thank you for taking the offer, Shayne. I will see you tomorrow then.” Jacqueline said and Shayne nodded. “Definitely. Goodbye.” Shayne’s eyes moved to Nathan and knowing that it would be rude to leave without saying a word to him, she waved. “Goodbye, Mr Wade.” She said and turned to leave without even waiting for a response from him. Nathan stared at her as she walked away. He wanted to speak to her but she seemed to be in a hurry. A few seconds after she left, he tapped his fingers nervously, ignoring whatever Jacqueline and th

"If you are not like them, why haven't you told the world about what they did to my sister?" Shayne pursed her lips at him and folded her arms while Nathan looked like he had been slapped in the face. No matter how he searched, he couldn't find an answer to give her. A few seconds later, he sighed and lowered his head. "I…I can't. It will destroy my family." He whispered but Shayne heard him loud and clear. She scoffed and rolled her eyes at his statement. "Of course, you can't. Why would you? It's like I said, you are a Wade. I hope that explains why I hate you." She said and stood up. "If that is all, Mr Wade, I'll take my leave now." She finished and turned around to leave but Nathan held her hand before she could leave and stopped her. "Wait, please." He pleaded. "I do not want us to be enemies, Shayne. We don't have to be enemies especially now that we will be working together. It will be best if we are on good terms, don't you think?" "You don't have to worry about that,

The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate Hidden Truth
“Come, let’s go to my room. We should be careful, even in my house.” Anna said and led Emma to a guest room in the house.Even though she was now working with Emma to bring down the Wades, she wasn’t going to trust her fully as there was still a chance Emma might want to betray her. The only people Anna could fully trust were her sister and Tristan.She still had to be careful with others even though they seemed nice.“There’s a lot in here, Anna. William has more secrets than we thought.” Emma said as she placed the bag on the bed once they were inside the cozy room.“Show me.” Anna requested eagerly and Emma nodded as she started pulling out the items she had stolen from William’s secret room.“I didn’t even have enough time to go through them because of how many they are.” Emma shook her head and handed Anna a stack of files she had compiled.“I have gone through these though….they are terrible. I cannot believe he is respected in this country. Once this leaks, he will definitely b
The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate Caught!
“Someone was in here!” William said angrily and stormed into the living room, his face twisted in rage. He didn’t want to cause a scene because there were secrets hidden in that room that no one was to ever find out and if Jacob or Garcia saw him getting so worked up about someone going into his room, they would wonder what was in it that he wanted to hide so badly. So, he called one of the maids and had her call the others to his study.“Get everyone to my study, now!” He yelled at the young maid who immediately scurried off to grab the other staff.The maids scattered at the entrance of his study, unsure of the source of his anger as they sensed trouble on the way.“Which one of you came into my study?!” He barked, his voice echoing through the four walls of the study.The maids exchanged confused glances as they silently questioned each other. Tracy, one of the older maids decided to speak up and save everyone from William’s wrath.“Pardon me, sir, but, none of us came into this fl

“Emma?” An overly familiar voice called out and Emma froze. When she looked up, she found William standing beside his son, Jacob. They both stared at her with suspicion as she never frequented the area unless she was being called.“What are you doing here?” William asked, narrowing his eyes at her Emma’s heart pounded harshly against her chest and her mind raced, searching for a lie to get her out of the situation she was in.“I…I..uh.. the thing is…” She stammered but couldn’t form any coherent sentence.“What are you doing in this hallway, Emma? You know it belongs to Father and I don’t think you were sent by anyone so what the fuck are you doing here?” Jacob yelled, his gaze sharp and full of suspicion.Emma knew that she had to say something fast if she didn’t want them to throw her out right there so, she said the first thing that entered her head.“I was looking for you, Jacob. I searched everywhere but couldn’t find you so I decided to come here since I know you visit here freq
The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate Unveiled Secrets
Emma stared at the now-revealed door with her jaw on the ground. Her pulse quickened and her feet trembled but, she was determined to uncover whatever secret was hidden behind the door so, she stepped in. There was a dark hallway, the only source of light being a dim light which was at the end of the hallway. She finally reached the end of the hallway and a door came into view. Emma said a small prayer before reaching for the doorknob and to her surprise, it wasn’t locked. Her heart thundered in her chest as the door creaked open, revealing a small, dimly lit room. It was almost like a private lounge with leather couches, a glass coffee table, and a running air conditioner. The air in the secret room was cold with a faint scent of cigarettes. This meant that the room wasn’t abandoned. If anything, it was still very much in use. But she wasn’t there to gaze at the mysterious room so, she blinked and readied herself. “Alright, Emma.” She whispered to herself in a barely audible voi
The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate A secret to unveil
THE WADE MANSIONEmma sat on her king-sized bed, her mind filled with various thoughts. With her family’s name on the decline and her father on the verge of imprisonment for money laundering, she had lost all the modeling projects she was handling and had received cancellation emails from other brands that wanted to work with her.Her life was falling apart and there was nothing she could do.The last few days had been hard for her as she could feel the tension in the Wade mansion. She knew that something big was about to happen. She could feel it.Jacob’s attitude had become worse and even his parents were no longer on her side. Not that they were ever on her side.Her only option was Anna, the only person who had offered to help her. She understood that if she wanted to save her family and herself, she had to listen to Anna. There was no time to be suspicious of her.A knock on the door pulled her out of her thoughts. Garcia opened the door and walked in, a false smile on her face.

“I have made the necessary preparation. I will be divorcing Emma next week after the party to make room for you in my life.”Anna stared at Jacob with her eyes wide open and her jaw almost on the ground, the weight of his words hanging in the air.She knew he was a fool who didn't think before acting but this…this was unexpected. She could tell from his expression that he had not sat down to think things through properly. If he had, he wouldn't have been so eager to go through with the divorce. Any sane person would be suspicious of their ex-girlfriend who they treated badly suddenly coming back into their lives and acting like everything was great between them.“Are you being serious right now, Jacob?” Anna asked, her voice steady but the shock in her eyes remained. “On what grounds are you asking for a divorce? I don't think Emma has done anything bad enough to warrant a divorce.” Anna said, pretending to care about his marriage.“We aren't a real couple, Anna. Getting a divorce wou

“You are openly seducing the CEO to keep your job because you are talentless.”A surge of irritation rose within Shayne but, she maintained her composure. The last thing she was going to do was stoop to their level and exchange words with them. So, with a smile on her face, she held her head eye and walked to them.“I don't have to seduce him, my darling. He's the one swooning over me. Too bad no one has noticed you….either of you. You seem like the talentless one to me.” She mocked, leaving them with their jaws on the floor.“Now, If you'd excuse me. This talentless person has a shoot to do. There's no time for me to be lazying around doing nothing. I'll give you some advice; you should change this nasty character of yours. Maybe then you'd stop being an MIT.” Shayne said to both of them, referring to them as a Model-In-Training.Before any of them could give her a response, the door opened to reveal her manager who informed her that her shoot begins in ten minutes. She turned and gr
The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate Getting to know a Wade
“Since your morning schedule has been cleared out, you will be spending the rest of the morning with me.”Shayne blinked, completely caught off guard by his bluntness. She had known for a long time that the man was bold but, this was…unexpected.“Let me take you to a restaurant for a light snack. I know you already had breakfast so we won’t be ordering anything heavy. I know models don’t eat much.” He said, gesturing for her to join him. “We’ll only be out for an hour or two. You have nothing to be worried about.”Shayne stared at him with her lips parted. She couldn’t believe his guts. She wondered if this was how all rich men behaved.Shayne opened her mouth to speak, ready to decline his offer and walk out of his office but, she immediately had a second thought. It was just breakfast and it was going to be in an open space. There was no way anything would happen.‘Having a little snack with him wouldn’t hurt.’ She thought. Besides, she had only taken a cup of coffee before leaving
The Billionaire's Deceived Surrogate An Abuse of Power
“You’re getting this wrong, Shayne. I didn’t do this. Mr Wade did it himself. He cleared out your schedule.”Her mouth parted slightly, both intrigued and annoyed. “Nathan did this? Why?”“I have no idea, Shayne. But, hey! You have a lot of free time. I think it’s a win.” Luca shrugged and flashed her a wink before he walked out of the dressing room.As soon as he left, Shayne grabbed her purse from the table and marched to the last floor. She wanted to hear from Nathan himself why he cleared her schedule.Shayne got off the elevator and searched for Nathan’s office. She asked one of the workers on the floor who directed her to his office.“Can I help you?” A blonde who seemed to be in her early twenties stopped her before she could enter the office.“And you are?” Shayne asked in an impatient tone, her face twisted in annoyance.“Mr Wade’s secretary. Is there a problem?” The blonde asked with a scowl on her face. Upon hearing that the lady was Nathan’s secretary who was only doing he
