The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 158: The First To Suspect Her
“What?!” Both Lily and Christopher exclaimed in shock at the same time.“What happened?” Christopher went further to ask.“There is a cop downstairs waiting to speak with you, Mr. Christopher, and Mrs. Ashley,” the bodyguard told Christopher. “He was the one who brought the news,” he added.“Okay, give us both some minutes and we will be downstairs,” Christopher said, sounding unhappy at the turn of event.He was not the only one feeling that way, because Lily was also shocked and befuddled. Then after the bodyguard turned and left, Christopher turned and looked at Lily in a suspicious way.“What is it?” Lily asked, uncomfortable with the way Christopher was looking at her now that they were alone.“When I asked you about her yesterday, you simply said she wasn’t available,” Christopher said, drawling his words. “What did that mean?” Christopher asked.Lily took some steps backwards, stunned by Christopher’s unspoken insinuations. “Are you saying that I have something to do with her d

“Excuse me?” Christopher asked; he wasn’t certain he heard the cop correctly, because he was not loud enough, but he was certain that the cop said something.“Good morning, Mr. Christopher Bridger and to your wife, Mrs. Ashley,” he greeted.Somehow, Christopher did not like this cop’s demeanor. There was something unsettling about him, and if Christopher had heard of this earlier, he would have demanded a more appealing and respectful cop to come to his mansion; oh yes, he had the power to do that, but now that this one was already here, they might as well get on with it.“Sit, and we should make this as quick as possible, because I do have to be at my company,” Christopher said. “Actually, you should be grateful that you found me still at home at this time of the day,” he added.“I wonder why that is, though,” the cop said as he began to write something down on his small booklet.“What are you implying?” Christopher asked, really getting annoyed at the audaciousness of this cop.He w

Lily and Christopher entered back into their living room shortly after the cop left, scheduling another day to return for a proper investigation after Christopher demanded him to get a warrant.“I don’t even mind asking my lawyer to be present so that he doesn’t try anything funny, because that cop acts weird to me, and I don’t want him getting into the heads of my domestic staff, or I might even speak with the head cop and demand for his replacement on this case,” Christopher said all at once.But Lily could not respond to him. Actually, she wasn’t even paying attention to him at all; she was thinking deeply.“…this is a murder case now.” Those were the last words of the cop, and it struck something in Lily.Since, all she had been hearing was that Maggie was dead, but now that it had sounded in her ears that she had been killed, Lily was beginning to become frantic.Don Grander.She had gone to Don Grander and reported Maggie to him, and he had promised to handle it.

“Answer me!” Christopher barked at Lily, making her jump in fright.Lily had almost forgotten about the note that Hedge gave her just the day before, a few hours before their beautiful dinner, and of all people to stumble upon it, Christopher had to be the one.“I am not joking with you, Ashley. Who is Hedge and what is the meaning of this?” Christopher asked again, fuming.Lily became worried as she swallowed multiple times, trying to think of something that she could possibly say that Christopher would believe her.“Um…he is just an old friend,” Lily finally found the word.“And old friend, you say?” Christopher asked.“Yes,” Lily said.Being that she was living in Ashley’s life, it was expected that he would easily believe her, because a woman like Ashley would definitely have multiple old friends.“This is a handwritten note, which means that it was given to you by hand. When did you see him?” Christopher asked smartly.One of the problems with dealing with Christopher Bridger was

“Who?” Lily asked, her voice sounding almost shaky.Lily was reminded that she was still having some predicaments to deal with, and the information just made her jumpy.Lily had come to realize that the world of the rich was filled with bricks and thorns. She had only been married to Christopher Bridger for a couple of months, but she could not recall the last time she had rest of mind. From the very day that she was abducted and forced into impersonating Ashley Grander, Lily had never been herself. She had come to realize that there was too much going on in their world, including murder and bloodshed, and it completely devastated her.“She didn’t exactly say, but she begged that it was urgent for her to see you,” he told Lily.“A she?” Lily asked and he nodded his head.The only person that Lily could think of was Emily Torres, but then again, the Emily she knew would not hesitate to announce herself. In fact, she might have wanted to come right upstairs if she felt that Lily was was

“Send Aimee into my office right away,” Christopher barked at his new secretary the moment he arrived at work.He could not even recall her name, because she had just been hired to replace Trisha, but right now, the last thing that was of utmost concern to Christopher was the name of his new secretary. Christopher was seated and settled just in time before Aimee entered.“Good morning, Mr. Christopher,” Aimee greeted.Christopher saw that flash of rage and jealousy in Aimee’s eyes again before they disappeared, and it made him a little unsettled. What was she enraged about? So far, she seemed to be taking the whole demotion thing with grace, and although Christopher hadn’t told her, he hoped to reinstate her once his marriage with Ashley ended. He could not tell Aimee that to make her feel better because that would mean exposing the fact that he was in a contract marriage, and that was highly against the rules.Then what was she jealous about? It certainly cannot be Ashley, because th

Christopher was almost going insane. He had already had all his security guards secure the front gate and every possible exit.He was fuming and boiling with anger, because he knew how important those papers was to him and his company. Whoever took them certainly knew that they were worth a huge amount of money, and if he didn’t do something about it quickly, he would lose that money.“Whoever did this is going to pay with their lives!” Christopher kept saying to himself, and he meant every word of it.One thing that he could not stand was stealing, and he was very certain that it must have been when he went out to lunch with Ashley. The only thing was that he did not check for it yesterday when he got back.“Damn…who the hell could have done this to me?” Christopher asked.He had already called the cops and detectives and investigators, because he needed to know who did it and retrieve those papers, and he needed to know as soon as possible. However, it just seemed like they were tak

“I knew that my dad never loved me when he began to pick Emily Torres over me, and the punishment in the room increased after they caught me and brought me back home. Emily would sit there and watch my dad scar me with his punishment tools, and then abandon me in the hands of the old maid to be treated. I hated both of them severely.The more they treated me like an animal, the wilder I became. I just wanted to humiliate them and get them infuriated as much as they hurt me. Soon, I stopped feeling the hurt and pain from the punishments, because my body just became numb to everything that I was feeling. So yeah, they couldn’t hurt my body any longer, but I could make them go crazy with the recklessness and scandals.”Lily shuddered as she read through Ashley’s diary.Lily was not exactly taking her time in reading it, because she knew that she did not have all the time in the world, and she needed to get to that part where she would be able to give justice to Ashley before her time was

Lily could not believe that Christopher Bridger, one of Mexico’s wealthiest and most handsome bachelor was in her grandmother’s hidden cabin with her.He had come to find her!“I have been combing the entire country for you with the best investigators I could hire, Lily,” Christopher said softly as they talked in the living room, alone while Joe stayed outside with Christopher’s driver and bodyguard to give them privacy.It was the second time that Christopher was calling her by her real name and identity, and he did so with such tenderness and gentleness that it melted Lily’s heart. It was very different from the gruff and angry manner with which he always called Ashley.“I thought I had lost you. I was afraid that I would never get the chance to see you, until I got an information that your brother, Joe, contacted his teammates, and then we were able to trace the connection to this cabin,” Christopher explained.Lily ground her teeth in exasperation. “And I warned him,” Lily said, t

Lily stared at her reflection in the mirror with sheer horror and then down to the test strip on her hand which showed two thick red lines; she was pregnant.Then Lily broke down in tears.“How could this be happening?” She asked herself, sobbing.It had been almost a week now that she ran away to her grandmother’s cabin in the woods with Joe. It had been a miracle; one that Lily never thought would happen, but it had happened, and she and Joe had been hiding there since then. She had no idea when it would be safe for her and Joe to return to their lives, but Lily was ready to hide in this abandoned cabin for as long as possible as long as they were both alive. They had agreed not to make contact with anyone at all so that their hideout would not be known.And now, she had fallen pregnant for Christopher Bridger; the man whom she had fallen in love with but would never have.A knock on the door interrupted Lily, and she knew without a doubt that it was Joe; they were the only ones in

Christopher arrived at the company from the hotel in a grand style. He was looking dashing and stunning, and more, he was impressed with what Aimee had come up with in the crunch of time.His company was buzzing with elegance and class, and with everything that had been scheduled to happen tonight, Christopher had no doubt that it would be a successful night for him. The papers he would use in sealing the best deal the company had ever had was with him.However, Christopher was troubled.In all honesty, he had a pretty rough night last time, because while at the hotel room, he kept battling his conscience.“I should have gone home to her,” Christopher told himself.Lately, especially after their intimate affair, he had been unable to get her off his mind, and last night, he regretted allowing Aimee persuade him into sleeping in a hotel home. Christopher had also battled with anxiety and nervousness, and he knew that if he simply wrapped his arms around her, he would have felt better.

Lily stayed in the bedroom and waited for Christopher, but she was downright scared to her bones that something might go wrong and nervous.It was as though the time was ticking by too slowly, but she had no choice but to wait for him in his mansion. However, she was very restless.Lily thought of Don Grander who she guessed must have realized that his papers were missing and would be searching frantically for them. He would kill Lily if he knew that she had taken it, and worse, wanted to show them to Christopher.In thinking of the devil, Don Grander began to call Ashley’s phone, and she jumped in fright.Lily contemplated on not answering the call, but then if she did that, Don Grander might suspect her, because she had never ignored his call before, so Lily took a split second to catch her breath before picking the call.She would have to act normal otherwise Don Grander would know that something was amiss.“Where are you?” Don Grander asked gruffly as soon as the call connected.“

“Monk!” Don Grander yelled at the top of his voice, almost tearing out his lungs. He was in his bedroom, and he paced furiously. Some minutes later, Monk rushed into his room.“Boss, you sent for me,” Monk said, confused, because he was just with Don Grander about an hour ago in the study where they talked at length.“Something has happened,” Don Grander said through clenched teeth.“What might that be?” Monk asked.“Before you and I went out, I was going through the original and fake document that I and Bridger signed before his demise, and the one that Benedict drafted for me which he showed to Christopher to make him believe and succumb to what we want,” Don Grander explained.“Okay…” Monk said, paying rapt attention to what Don Grander was saying even though he was wondering why Don Grander decided to go through the papers in the first place.It was as though Don Grander could read Monk’s thoughts, because he answered right away. “You know that this last deal is very huge; it is t

Aimee threw herself into planning this special event for Christopher and his company. He did not give her the full details, but she worked with what she had anyway.She had been busy contacting vendors and planners, making plans and readjustments; Aimee wanted complete perfection, because this was the event that she was banking on completely. She was fed up of waiting for Christopher to come by, and even though he had reinstated her with even better promotion, Aimee feared that Christopher had fallen for Ashley, and she could not let that happen.After this event, she would have exactly what was hers!Aimee was still in deep thoughts when her phone rang. When she checked the caller ID, it was the new man that she had hired to do her dirty business. The moment Aimee realized that Derek was no longer on board, she had had to find someone else. This time around, Aimee ensured that she went for someone who was fierce and dangerous.“What news do you have for me?” Aimee asked.Now that she

Lily covered her mouth in shock and dreadful fright as her heart slammed against her ribs. At first, she thought that Don Grander was going to hear her gasp, and she feared for her life. If she was caught hiding by the stairs and eavesdropping, she would be dead even before the actual time, but thankfully, Don Grander and Monk were too engrossed in the whole conversation to even hear her.“I just want this to be over and done with so that Emily and I can finally go for that vacation. We have already missed our flight and she is breathing down my neck…it can be really frustrating,” Don Grander said to Monk.Then the two men stopped right close to Lily, making Lily more afraid.She needed to get away from this mansion before they either discovered that she was here, or that the papers were missing. As far as Lily knew, no one saw her come in except the security at the gate, and hopefully, she would be able to get out before Don Grander declares that anything is missing.“When she steals

“What?!” Lily was stunned and afraid and alert.Her mind instantly went to Monk and Don Grander’s threats that they would kill Joe if she failed on any of her tasks.“Yeah, and it was pretty weird. It made me feel uncomfortable,” Joe said over the phone.She could feel the discomfort in his voice, and Lily’s heart broke into more pieces. She even began to wonder how much heartache she could take at once.“I really wish you were here, Lily; I feel safe with you around,” Joe said warmly and sadly. “It has been over a year, and this is beginning to look creepy to me. Even Rudney does not exactly know where you are,” Joe admitted.Lily did not think that Joe would think too deeply about everything. She hadn’t even really been thinking about Joe and how her absence might have affected him. More tears dropped from Lily’s eyes in pain and regret. If only she could tell Joe exactly what was going on, but then again, she did not even have the liberty of brooding about that for so long, because
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 192: Undignified
Lily felt like she had been hit with a ton of bricks at the harshness and cruelty of Christopher’s words, and when she managed to look into his eyes, she could see all the emotions right there.“Let me say what I came here to tell you, please,” Lily begged deeply.“How did you manage to bleed like a virgin when everyone knows that you are not, huh?” Christopher asked bitterly and angrily.Lily opened her mouth to say that it was because she was a virgin, but no words came out of her mouth, and Christopher mistook Lily’s inability to say the words as guiltiness.Christopher shook his head. “You are my worst mistake, Ashley, and I blame myself for not fighting this arrangement when I was told. After this party, you are going to return to your father’s house discreetly until this whole crap of a marriage is over; I never want to see your face again,” Christopher said firmly.Lily squeezed her eyes shut as the words sliced through her heart. She felt like Christopher had literally taken a
