The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 33: There Is Nothing Left
“He didn’t just take all the money,” Lily almost sobbed. “What am I going to tell Emily now for crying out loud?” Lily asked herself, utterly dejected.She knew she should have stopped him, but how would she have been able to stop a man like Hedge from taking all the money. The first mistake she made was letting him come to her room, and that was another thing to be worried about, because Lily highly doubted that it would not come to the knowledge of Christopher, but then again, if Maggie had explained to her why she was surprised when she asked her to send the guest upstairs, she would never have allowed her to bring Hedge to her room.Someone cleared her throat, and when Lily looked towards the door, she saw that it was Maggie.“I am terribly sorry to interrupt you, ma’am, but you have another guest,” Maggie said.Lily knew that it was Emily, and her heart already began to beat faster than normal with just the mere thought of facing Emily, but she was not about to let her assumption

Lily was foolish to think that Emily would have answered the question that she asked, but now, Lily could not stop thinking about what Hedge said, and she could not stop wondering what they had forced Ashley to do.“I need to know,” Lily said to herself.Lily spent the entire day dreading what was to come, because coupled with thinking about what they might have forced Ashley to do, she still had to worry about Emily’s threat. More than ever before, Lily knew that it wasn’t an empty threat. They were two money-hungry people who could do something as terrible as looking for someone to impersonate their dead daughter when they could have easily just told Christopher that his bride was dead.Lily almost jumped out of her skin when Christopher came into the house in the evening. She was surprised that he came back this early, because usually, he came home at almost midnight. What could have possibly made him come back this early?“Welcome,” Lily said.“We need to talk,” Christopher said g

“Ashley, get in here immediately!” Christopher bellowed angrily, causing Lily to jump in fright.She left his room just a couple of minutes ago, so how come he had already discovered that his money was missing? Something wasn’t exactly right, and even though Lily could not exactly pinpoint exactly what it was, she just believed that it was unreal. First of all, there was a chunk of money there, so he would have to count it first to know that a fraction of it was missing, and secondly, he reacted too quickly.“Ashley!” Christopher’s loud and angry voice cut through Lily thoughts, making Lily jump again.Lilly’s heart began to beat faster as she approached Christopher’s bedroom. She also began to think about what she would say or do that would completely get her out of this situation.“Thank God I sent Maggie to clean the room,” Lily said to herself gratefully. All she needed to do was play defensive.Lily took a few deep breaths to calm her steady raging nerves and also summon enough c

Christopher could not get over what happened recently. It had been two days now, and Ashley was yet to produce the money she stole from him. He had noticed something was off right from their wedding day, but he could not exactly pinpoint him. Ashley was always acting off, and then there were the nights that she battled with troubled sleep when they shared a room together. Although Christopher had never spent the night with Ashley Grander prior to their wedding day, he knew that she was just not that person to be troubled by sleep. It was evident that she was fighting demons of her own, and Christopher knew this, because he also had demons of his own that he wrestled with every now and then.He knew that Ashley was wild and rugged, but a thief? That was just something he didn’t expect she would do, because it didn’t seem like Ashley’s personality. Anyway, Christopher decided that he would pay Don Grander a visit, because something was off, and Christopher was beginning to have this uns

Yes, this is exactly what I am looking for!” Aimee said in her head.She felt like standing up and twirling in delight, but she could not do that, because of obvious reasons, but she definitely would when she returned to her apartment later this evening. When Christopher had sent for her, Aimee had prayed deeply that it would not be work-related, but when Christopher had mentioned Ashley, Aimee had wished that it was work-related. She would rather spend the entire day buried in work than talk about the one woman that stole her man away from her. Nevertheless, as the conversation progressed, it then began to swing in Aimee’s favor. If Christopher was doubting Ashley, then that was good news in Aimee’s book.“Ashley Grander now steals?” Aimee could not help but ask. Ashley Grander certainly did not have a clean slate now.“That is the thing, Aimee; she does not steal,” Christopher answered.“With all due respect, Mr. Christopher, how do you know this?” Aimee asked. “A woman like Ashl

Christopher left the office with the intention of confronting Don Grander. He already knew that Don Grander would be at the men’s club wasting his time away, and he went straight there. Christopher could tolerate anything, but being fooled was not one of them.When Christopher arrived at the men’s club, his phone rang before he could step out of his car. Christopher looked at the screen and saw that it was Aimee Landon.“Aimee, what is it?” Christopher asked instantly. He did not want to waste any time talking on the phone.“I just wanted to let you know that the date for the interview has been fixed, and the questions your interviewer would ask are ready,” Aimee informed Christopher over the phone.“What about Ashley, are her questions ready as well? I don’t want any mistakes, Aimee,” Christopher stated firmly.“Yes, they are, sir,” Aimee answered. “I will send them to your email. You have about a day to go through them, and if there are any questions you would like her to change, c

Christopher decided that the first thing he would do when he got home was to remove the punishment he placed on Ashley by asking her to return to their bedroom.“I can only figure things out when I have her within eyesight,” Christopher said to himself.As Christopher sat at the back of his expensive car while his driver and bodyguard drove him home, his mind drifted back to about a year ago when his father’s lawyer, Benedict, had informed him about his father’s arrangement with Don Grander right after Christopher’s father’s death and his takeover as heir and CEO to the company.“Christopher, can I have a moment?” Benedict, a man who happened to be the same age as Christopher’s father and his lawyer for decades, had said.There had been mourners and well-wishers in the Bridger living room, because they had all just returned from the funeral. Christopher and everyone else present were putting on black, and as Christopher raised his head to look at Benedict, he wondered what the man wou

Christopher just kept ruminating over that very day on his father’s funeral. Maybe if he had stood his ground and firmly said no, or better still, fight against the agreement in court, he would probably not be in this situation in the first place. Christopher could not explain how much he hated Don Grander, way before now, and to think that he would be his father-in-law for one year was too excruciating to bear.Christopher wanted to scream.That particular day had been the beginning of his problems, and now he felt like a fool for succumbing to it even though Benedict showed a legal agreement between his father and Don Grander.Christopher arrived home a couple of minutes later. He would ask Ashley to return to the bedroom they were supposed to be sharing, so that he could have access to do his own personal investigation on her.“Welcome back, Mr. Christopher,” Maggie greeted Christopher.The way she stood indicated that she had been waiting for him for a while now, and he wondered

Lily liked the look of shock that she saw in Christopher’s eyes. This was the very first time that she was getting a reaction out of him that wasn’t anger. “Ashley?” Christopher asked, as though he was seeing a ghost.Lily would have been disturbed by that, but the woman that constantly forgot her role as Ashley Grander in Christopher’s life which made her constantly trip or shoot herself in the leg was gone. Now, Lily was more than ready to do the right thing, because some factors had prompted her to.“That’s me, Christopher,” Lily said, her words slurring. Then she got off the bed, ensuring that she made all the right moves.When Lily arrived at the house, it had been as though she was entering a strange place, or maybe it was because she was entering as Ashley Grander for the very first time, and not Lily Bashwood who was struggling to get into character. Just as she had planned it, she had arrived when Christopher was away at work, so that she would have ample time to do what she
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 109: Hey Husband
They arrived at the press room about two hours later after Aimee had returned into her apartment and freshened up.When she had entered her apartment, she had danced happily; all traces of sadness and hurt due to Christopher’s stark rejection to her seduction flown out through the window.Christopher Bridger had referred to the company as theirs! He had actively included Aimee in the company for the very first time since she began to work for Christopher. That was all the reassurance and boost that Aimee needed.“Welcome, Mr. Bridger and Miss Aimee,” the presswoman greeted.Christopher had had to pay a hefty amount of money to secure a press release that same day, because he knew how important it was to do damage control as quickly as possible. If he delayed, his business associates would withdraw the contracts they were yet to sign with him, his company would crumble to the ground, and he would be forgotten like he never existed in the entire country.“Thank you,” Christopher said, a
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 108: The Genius
Aimee smiled coyly; she knew damn well that her plans would work!She knew that she had messed up, and knowing Christopher, he would be thinking of firing her. Aimee deliberately did not go to the company, because she knew that if she showed up there, Christopher would humiliate her by firing her in the presence of everyone.She would not be able to take that.So the very minute that Christopher had left her apartment last night, she had made a call and swung into action.“One thing you should know, Christopher Bridger, is that I am not like any other woman you have ever met,” Aimee said to herself.She had always been smart, right from when she was a little girl. Granted, she had fallen head over heels in love with Christopher Bridger, but sticking by his side all these years even though Christopher tried to push her away several times just as he had done his other friends, had been for a reason. If she hadn’t remained glued to Christopher, she would not have been a senior staff at o
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 107: Remedy To The Situation
Christopher was more than furious, especially with the news making the rounds. Who the heck was peddling such lies about him?! Yes, he went into Aimee’s apartment, but it had merely been to switch off her alarm, and even though she had embarrassed herself, nothing untoward had happened, but what the news insinuated was that Christopher had extra-marital affair with Aimee, and that was a deadly scandal that was bad enough to spoil things for him.“Trisha! Trisha!” Christopher called in exasperation. “Where has she gone?” Christopher asked himself.He couldn’t recall whether or not he noticed Trisha there when he arrived at work because he had come in as a furious man; the blog news was the first thing he had seen this morning when he woke up, and his entire mood had taken a downward flop. Angrily, Christopher matched out of his office and stormed off to Trisha’s desk. Unfortunately, it was vacant.“Isn’t it too early in the day to leave her desk?!” Christopher bellowed, his thundering
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 106: Welcome Back To Life
Lily stared at the blog scandal, anger and jealousy ravaging her very core. It was bad enough that Christopher had taken Aimee to the event instead and even given his phone to her to take his calls, making him unavailable when she needed him the most, but to spend the night at her apartment was something else. ”Don’t feel too comfortable.” Those were the exact words of Aimee Landon to Lily on their wedding day, and it was obvious now that something was going on between them. Lily was angry and jealous, and she could not tell if it was because she was developing feelings for Christopher Bridger, or because it was a ridicule to her personality as his wife. Christopher was obviously not attracted to Lily, because he thought he was seeing Ashley, and their marriage was simply a flipping contract, but then again, they never made any agreement about freedom to cheat and live a life of infidelity, so yes, Lily had every right to feel slighted. Lily was certain that Aimee Landon would be
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 105: Where Is His Wife?
Lily was almost tempted to open the diary, even though she was scared as hell, but she couldn’t. Also, the old maid’s words still rung in her head. “Do not open it here,” the old maid had said after Lily had promised before leaving Ashley’s room. “Reading it while you are still here is not going to help you, and you might get caught,” the old maid had instructed. After resisting the urge to open it, Lily had tucked it safely away under Ashley’s bed. She could not put it into a box because she wasn’t certain which box would be going with her to Christopher’s house, and she did not want Emily or stumble upon it by mistake. Lily looked around the room and she became afraid. This was the first time that she would be feeling scared of being in Ashley’s bedroom. “What happened to you, Ashley Grander?” Lily asked the air, looking around expectantly as though Ashley would speak to her. “Who killed you? How did you die?” Lily asked. Now, she was more concerned about the person she had be
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 104: The Promise
“Why would you give Ashley’s diary to me?” Lily asked, her voice shaky as she swallowed hard. Before now, Lily had really wanted to know everything about Ashley Grander and how she died, especially as there seemed to be ugly situations surrounding it, and it always seemed to rear its head up in situations that Lily would have to pull herself out from, but now, holding a dead woman’s diary in her hands, Lily wasn’t so sure anymore. “I just want to know,” the old maid said, her voice drenched in sorrow. There was no doubt that she loved Ashley with all her heart, and it broke Lily to see her broken. Maybe Lily should have just continued pretending to be Ashley. “Although Ashley was not my daughter, and when Emily arrived here, she made sure that Ashley was kept away from me, I still loved her, and I took her like a daughter of mine,” the old maid continued in deep sadness. “I was here when she was born, and I practically raised her when her mother passed, before Don married Emily.
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 103: Help Miss Wild And Reckless Get Justice
Lily and the old maid sat in silence for a few minutes, even though they both knew that aside from the fact they did not have the luxury of time for that, they would both be screwed if Don Grander or Emily found them in that position. The old maid had been strangely silent since Lily revealed her identity. “Please, you can’t tell them,” Lily begged, breaking the ice. “If they find out that I have told you who I really am, they would kill my only brother,” she added pitifully. The old maid sighed deeply. “You know, I suspected that there was something off about you. When I applied the balm the first time, the body just wasn’t the same as my dear Ashley’s,” the old maid revealed. Lily did not know if she should be relieved or worried. “Why didn’t you say anything to Don Grander or Emily?” Lily asked, curious to know. “You see, I started working in this house the week that Ashley was born. She would have been a sweet girl, as I was allowed to carry her often, but then her mother pa
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 102: Seduction Gone Wrong
"What did you do that for?” Christopher said as he released his lips from Aimee’s kiss, taking his hands off her immediately. The moment Aimee’s lips touched Christopher’s, she became uncontrollably aroused, and she just wanted to have Christopher by all means. Blindly, she reached out for Christopher and dragged him in for another kiss, but Christopher pulled away from her grip; gently so as not to hurt her in the process. “What the heck has come over you?!” Christopher barked, hoping to get some senses into Aimee. He had never seen her like this, and even though this was not the first time that she was attempting a kiss on him, she just looked like a completely different person to Christopher. It was as though he was seeing a strange woman. “You are what has come over me, Christopher Bridger,” Aimee said lustily, her words slurring. She reached behind her dress and unzipped it, causing her dress to fall flat on the ground, revealing her naked body. “Jeez, Aimee!” Christopher s
