The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 79: Course Of Things
Don, why haven’t I gotten an alert for my spa and shopping apartment?” Emily asked as she stepped into Don’s study without bothering to knock.Don Grander was sipping on his liquor and waiting for Monk. Something had been bothering his mind since their last arrangement, and until he spoke with Monk, he would not be at peace. Monk had left to sort out a few of his personal things, and had promised to be back as soon as possible, but he was taking longer than necessary.“Not now, darling,” Don Grander responded. He sometimes wished that Emily was both understanding and sensitive, especially when it came to money, but that was like wishing that pigs could fly.“What do you mean by that?” Emily asked, her voice getting high, and Don knew that he was in for another bout of whining and nagging. “It has been a week!” Emily complained.“And you can wait another couple of days more; it can’t be that hard,” Don Grander said, his mind wandering back to the worry in his heart.“You know damn well

Lily could not tell why Christopher barged in with such command, but she was grateful and relieved. For the first time in her life, it felt as though things were working out for her. When they left the hotel, Lily had been so worried that she had unintentionally searched with her eyes for Mr. Yang, but thankfully, he was nowhere in sight. At least, now, she could get rid of the guilt of not getting the contract from Mr. Yang because she did not do his bidding.Lily decided to do what she knew how to do best on a plane; sleep, but Christopher had other plans.“Ashley,” Christopher called gruffly.Lily opened her eyes and turned towards Christopher. They were not far apart from each other, so she could hear him clearly without having to raise his voice, and it was just the two of them on the plane.“Yes?” Lily answered.“I want us to clear some things before touchdown and I want you to be as cooperative as possible,” Christopher said in a commanding tone, and Lily wondered whether wealt

“Excuse you?” Christopher asked them, obviously angry and embarrassed. “You have been invited to the station for a few minutes of questioning,” the same cop repeated again, aggravating Christopher even more.“Do you have an idea what you are talking about? What is my damn business with a murder that happened? I haven’t even been in the country for days now, and the first time I get is this harassment?” Christopher fired at them.“We deeply apologize for this, Mr. Christopher Bridger,” he apologized respectfully. They have been sent on a job, but they were doing it with so much respect that Lily wondered if they would have treated a common or average man in the same manner. “We also know that you would want to hurry home and get some rest with your lovely wife, and also, this is just an invitation for questioning, and we are doing so in your private terminal to avoid public embarrassment,” he elaborated.“You do know that I can cause you to lose your jobs, right?” Christopher threaten

Christopher and Lily sat across the inspector as a large desk sat between them; they were settled in now for questioning. “I don’t understand how we could possibly be the prime suspects of this lady you have just spoke about,” Christopher started, totally displeased about the turn of events. “I only met her once, and in case you have forgotten, you are speaking to Christopher Bridger, not some psychopath,” Christopher added angrily. “Why are we the prime suspect?” Christopher ended by asking. “According to the report we got, you were the last people Miss Rosa Benson interviewed before she was murdered,” the inspector said, fixing his gaze on Lily. Lily was uncomfortable, because she could not understand why on earth he was staring at her alone, or mostly. “And what is that supposed to mean?” Christopher asked. “When did she die, and how many other prime suspects have you accosted?” Christopher questioned further. He was spitting anger, and the inspector knew this. “We understand

As soon as they stepped into the house, Christopher said, “Come with me.”Lily did not understand the need for that, because she was going to go with him anyway. As they proceeded upstairs, Lily wondered what Christopher wanted to scold her about this time around. The station episode had ended quicker than expected, because Christopher had made a call and much to Lily’s dismay, Aimee had arrived with Christopher’s lawyer and everything had been sorted out.“Do you mind shutting the door?” Christopher asked the moment Lily stepped into the room, making Lily more uncomfortable.She had a thing against confrontations, as they made her nervous, and if they got intense, she would pass out. Regardless, Lily shut the door quietly.“What is it?” She asked, trying not to sound as uneasy as she actually felt.“You do know that you are the reason I went through that embarrassment, right?” Christopher asked, his anger simmering to the surface.“What do you mean?” Lily asked dumbly.“If it wasn’t

An hour later, Lily was ushered into the back of one of Christopher’s car along with Christopher and they were driven out of the compound with his full convoy.Lily had no idea where Christopher was taking her, because didn’t hear his bark orders at his drivers and bodyguard, or maybe he had done before now, but how did that happen? Lily could not stop thinking and worrying and wondering where Christopher was taking her.She couldn’t even dare ask him any questions, because his face were as hard as a rock in anger, and from the corner of Lily’s eye, she occasionally saw him tightening his jaw and grounding his teeth. Lily knew that she had witnessed Christopher’s anger at different times, but this time was just different.He was furious.Lily swallowed hard and allowed Christopher, his drivers and bodyguards to drive her, but she did not wonder for long as it dawned on her where they were going. The route was familiar now, and it brought a sense of dread to Lily’s stomach.They were g

"Please,” Lily begged the moment those words came out of Don Grander’s lips, because she feared for the absolute worst.There was a look of gloominess in Don Grander’s eyes now, and Lily felt that he was going to reveal things to Christopher. Why wouldn’t he when Christopher already almost figured things out? Lily had been speechless and clueless when she had found herself in the situation, so she would not be surprised if Don Grander was equally speechless and clueless as to what to do now.The only problem was the repercussions of the confession.Lily was not afraid to die. Actually, she was, but she would not have been so scared if this was about her alone, but Joe’s life was also at stake. Lily could not bear the thought of Joe’s young and promising life being snatched away from him because of her recklessness. Even if she was dead, she would never forgive herself, and her parents neither.“Make sure you look after Joe; he is your responsibility now.”Those were the last words of

After Christopher left her with Don Grander and Emily, Lily was thrown into one of the rooms in their mansion and the lights were taken out.Lily spent twenty-hours in the room without anyone coming to see her, and she thought that she had been left to die. Lily did not even get hungry; she could not find appetite in this situation, but all that she worried about was Joe. Ashley’s phone was taken away from her, so there was no way she could reach Joe or Rudney to be sure that Joe was fine.“They can kill me, but they should leave Joe out of this,” Lily cried and begged, but she knew that it was a futile effort, because no one would hear her, and more so, Don Grander’s mind could not be changed if he wanted to have them all killed.She had been worrying, crying, and thinking for hours, and it made her head ache badly. It intensified so badly that Lily had to rest her head on the wall and close her eyes. She wanted to rest her head to see if the dull ache in the middle of her head would

“It isn’t something you should be worried about for now. Just do it, as you have promised. I will send you his code and full name,” she said before stepping out of Christopher’s office and shutting the door quietly before Christopher could say another word.After she left, Christopher was thrown into utter confusion.The Ashley he knew, at least the most that he knew about her, rarely cared about anything in life. The only thing that she was interested in was going to parties, and squandering money, which was why her demand for dates did not quite surprise Christopher.But baseball?Christopher knew without a doubt that betting on a football player, especially during their tournament was a lot of money, and secondly, one had to be really interested in baseball game to be betting on their players, and the fact that she had specifically mentioned a baseball player’s name made him more confused.Again, there was something off with Ashley Grander.One minute she was acting like Ashley Gra
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 132: Highly Difficult Demands
“What?! Why would I do something like that?!” Christopher asked, turning blue.Lily almost burst out laughing, and at the same time, she was very jealous, because Christopher seemed liked he was going to pass out simply because she asked that he demoted Aimee. It pained Lily that he was that attached to Aimee.Christopher might deny all he wanted, but Lily was not stupid. She might be a virgin and a naïve girl who had never had a boyfriend, but she certainly wasn’t stupid; there was definitely something going on between them. At least, Aimee was not denying it, because she accosted Lily right there in their wedding reception, but Christopher on the other hand, would continue to deny it even if a gun was placed on his head, even though he had been caught in almost compromising positions with Aimee. Lily wondered why.If he liked Aimee, and Aimee was obviously crazy about him, why didn’t he just go for her? Granted, he and Ashley Grander were bound by a contract, but Lily knew that a l
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 131: Get Back At Her
“Do you give me your word?” Lily asked.Even though he already said it, she still did not want to take chances. Lily knew that whatever she was asking Christopher for had nothing to do with Don Grander, which meant that if Christopher doesn’t honor his word, she would not be able to do anything to him.Knowing how Ashley was treated by her own father, Lily was certain that even if Don Grander hears of the manhandling, he would not fight for her. Don Grander was a man that would literally stand by and watch his own daughter get tortured without standing up for her, as long as it benefited it. So if he could be that way with his biological daughter, Lily only wondered how he would be towards her, knowing that she was only impersonating his dead daughter.“I have never promised something and gone back on my words,” Christopher said, his breathing harder than normal; he was obviously still affected by what happened.Lily was also worried about Christopher in a way, because there was somet
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 130: Anything She Wants
Lily stood still, unable to move from the spot that Christopher had had her pinned against his wall. She could still feel the pain of his tight grasp on her neck, and Lily was white with fright. He could have killed her right this minute!Lily swallowed hard, trying to fathom what was going on.Before she was plunged into the world of the rich, powerful, and influential, she had never known violence. Her parents had raised Joe and her with love, compassion, and tenderness. They always frowned at Lily whenever she even tried to be a little rough with Joe when they were playing. Whenever they fought, her parents were always quick to create reconciliation between them, and they always ensured that they hugged each other and shared each other’s snacks afterwards.That was why she and Joe shared an unbreakable bond even after the passing away of their parents. Lily would rather die than watch anything happen to Joe. She would protect Joe with her life, and even though she did not live wi
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 129: A Murderer
Christopher only recognized what he was doing when he saw the raw look of fright in her eyes, and immediately, he pulled away from her and stepped back. Then he also turned back, unable to look at her as a result of what he just did. If she decided to sue him for violence, he would sink to the ground.It was happening again, and Christopher thought that he would never touch a woman in that manner ever again. He was not a violent man, but women always had a way of bringing out the beast in him.“What did I do?” Christopher asked himself in agony.He had thought that he had been able to do away with this part of his life, and this was another reason why he intentionally stayed far away from women. Aside from the fact that their presence, especially when it was seductive or alluring, made him scared to his bones, he never wanted what happened before now with Nanny Brenda to ever repeat itself.It was the one mistake that Christopher ever made, and he knew that if it ever got out, he woul
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 128: An Attack On His Wife
Lily had not expected the attack from Christopher, because that was exactly how his question sounded to her, but she was more than ready for him.“I made the choice to,” Lily lied.“Why?” Christopher asked firmly.“Wouldn’t you have been embarrassed that your trophy wife still had indecent things out there for the world to consume? What if bloggers got hold of it and decided to circulate it just to ruin something important for you, huh?” Lily asked Christopher firmly.It might be a lie, and Lily was definitely still in the dark about this issue, because just like other times, Don Grander and Emily hadn’t deemed it fit to tell her that they had wiped off everything about Ashley’s lifestyle from the internet, but this was the only logical and convincing explanation that Lily could think of, and she was certain that this was the exact reason Don Grander and Emily might have done what they did.No one would ever have been proud of the lifestyle Ashley lived, including her father, even tho
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 127: An Eye For An Eye
Lily had arrived at Christopher’s company with the help of his driver, and she had been awed by how big it was.Now she understood why the city called it one of the most thriving and biggest companies in the city. Lily had never seen anything as huge as this, and she wondered why she had never come to his company until now. More so, she wondered why Christopher had never invited her. Well, judging from how ice-cold he had been towards her, she did not expect anything different anyway. After successfully leaving Don Grander’s mansion, Lily had decided to take her assignment seriously by paying Christopher a surprise visit in his company. It dawned on Lily that she would never get anything done for Don Grander if she just stayed in the mansion as Christopher’s dutiful wife.“Step out of the car for a moment,” Lily had told the driver and bodyguard after they had arrived at Christopher’s company and had parked in the parking lot.Thankfully, the car had tinted glasses, so it was quite
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 126: Intrusion
“Come with me, Aimee,” Christopher had said after the meeting was over, making Aimee exceedingly glad.Actually, the meeting had ended a couple of minutes ago, but Christopher had continued discussing with two of the senior associate male staff members, and somehow, Aimee had just found a way to remain in the boardroom.However, she had also been itching to hear from Derek. He had made her slightly uncomfortable with the last conversation that they had before she had gone in for the meeting, and there was nothing Aimee hated than the feeling of a misunderstood task, so she had seized the opportunity to speak with Derek over the phone as she had excused herself and called Derek in the restroom connected to the boardroom. The moment she had come out, Christopher had asked her to go with him.Aimee knew that some of the men, especially the ones who were still unmarried had eyes for her, and were even jealous of her closeness with Christopher, but Aimee never gave them a second look, beca
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 125: A Sleek Move
“Damn!” Derek expressed in awe.It was though Derek was laying eyes on the most beautiful woman in the entire universe, and he was completely enamored. Derek stood right there and allowed his eyes to follow Trisha all the way to her post box. She was casually dressed and had her hair in a bun, but she gripped Derek’s heart already. For years now, Derek had not been remotely attracted to any woman. At first, he had been worried, because usually, he should have craved the presence of a woman, but then again, he had been too busy taking on assignments and digging out dirty information for his clients to even have the time to think about a woman.The only times that Derek ever allowed himself to have a good time was when he went to the bar occasionally to pass time for an hour or two, and most times, those bars were filled with whores; Derek was not a man that got enticed by a woman that any man could have, so he had never given any prostitute a second look.But this woman right here had
