“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

“Time for what?” Lily asked fearfully.She was visibly trembling, and it was as though she was seeing Monk’s scary form for the very first time.“You will know when it happens,” Monk said gruffly and he walked over to Lily.Lily cowered and tried to get into the wall, but then again, she wall wouldn’t open and swallow her up, because that was exactly what Lily wished for right now. Monk got to her, and he towered over her like beast about to devour its prey.“What do you mean by it is time?” Lily asked; the word sounded like he was taking her out for execution.Instead of answering her, Monk reached down and grabbed Lily’s hand roughly. Then he began to pull her towards the door. Lily wanted to resist, because fear of the unknown was eating deep into her, but then again, she did not have the stamina to resist, and also, she could never overpower Monk no matter how strong she was.When they got to the door, Lily paused with all the strength that she could muster. “Please, I just want t

Christopher arrived at work in the morning with a foul mood.Ever since he left Lily back with Don Grander and he returned home, he had been in a foul mood, and he could not exactly state why. When he then had trouble sleeping, Christopher simply concluded that he was just mad at Don Grander for not telling him about the accident, and leading him on to marrying someone who suffered from a head injury.“Good morning, Mr. Christopher!” Trisha greeted cheerily, but there was also a sound of skepticism mingled with her cheerfulness.Christopher grunted in response and walked past her. Trisha was already doing the sign of the cross in relief; it was better to get a grunt as a response to her greeting than being scolded, but before she was halfway done, Christopher stopped and turned to her.“Ask Aimee to come to my office right away,” Christopher instructed.“Yes, sir,” Trisha answered diligently, and she proceeded to do just as she had been instructed.Christopher got into his office feel

Lily left Don Grander’s mansion, more relieved than she had ever been. At least for the very first time, he was communicating with her without spewing curses and threats when she reported a problem that she had found herself in. He was helping her fix a problem for the first time. With a new burst of energy and excitement, Lily decided to make her date with Christopher a memorable one. However, she did not want to go right back to the mansion and face Maggie so soon, because Lily had the feeling that Maggie would blackmail her yet again, especially knowing that Christopher wasn’t at home. So Lily surfed the internet with Ashley’s phone for the best planning services in the city, and she got options to pick from almost immediately. Then Lily gave her driver the address of the one that caught her fancy. “You are welcome to our store, Mrs. Bridger. It is such an honor to have you grace our store with your important and gorgeous presence,” Lily was greeted with so much enthusiasm and
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 147: Unusual Discomfort For A CEO
Christopher had a new secretary by the time he got to the office, and yet again, he was reminded that she was there as a result of Aimee’s prompt response to details. However, that was not even slightly compared to the fact that it felt awkward not having Aimee at the board meeting. It dawned on me that Aimee had never been absent. “What did I let her do to me?” Christopher asked himself. The other board members were competent, but it just wasn’t the same with Aimee’s absence, or maybe it was because Christopher was already used to having Aimee around. If he had fired her or demoted her as a result of misconduct, he would not be feeling this way, and also, Christopher just felt as though he had done something wrong, and his conscience had been pricking him slightly since he arrived at work. Christopher even wondered if Aimee would show up at work again. He would not be shocked if Aimee decided to turn in her resignation, because the truth of the matter was that deep down, Christop
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 146: The Part He Had Never Seen
Derek wasn’t completely shocked, because he knew this already, but what he did not know was what they did together that had created this animosity, so much so that Aimee wanted Trisha to be killed. “I would love to hear all about it,” Derek requested calmly. He really had to be tactical about this issue, otherwise he would risk losing Trisha, and also getting to the root bottom of what exactly went wrong, because the last thing Derek wanted to do right now was go back to Aimee for anything at all, especially an explanation. He still hadn’t been able to decide how exactly he was going to handle what he just found out about Derek, knowing that she was supposed to be facing the full wrath of the law for taking a life. Gosh, he could not even believe that she would have the guts to kill anyone in cold blood and then try to pin it on someone else. If Christopher Bridger wasn’t a powerful man, Ashley Grander would have been in jail by now for a crime she did not commit. A worse and mor

"Thank you for coming to lunch with me,” Derek said as he pulled out the chair for Trisha.Trisha smiled; a sight that Derek would give anything for to constantly see. “We have become friends over the last couple of days, so why not?” Trisha said as she took a seat.Then Derek signaled the server. After placing their orders, the server left them alone. Derek looked at Trisha, amazed at how beautiful she was. Her beauty and presence brought some sort of peace that Derek had never experienced before, and he would not have missed this date for anything in the world.“You are beautiful, Trisha,” Derek complimented deeply, making Trisha blush slightly.“You flatter me, Derek,” Trisha said with a sweet smile.“I only state the facts,” Derek told her.However, the words that Aimee said to him in her drunken state some hours ago still hadn’t gone out of his head. In fact, it kept gnawing at Derek. First of all, Derek now realized that Aimee was more dangerous than he ever thought her to be. H
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 144: Her Report
Don’t forget our deal…” followed Lily out of Christopher’s mansion like a haunting word as she entered into one of his cars and proceeded to go to Don Grander’s house.That alone was enough to encourage Lily to take this step that she was taking, because Maggie was already posing to be a dangerous threat, and she could not continue to just relax and do nothing about it. She needed to act fast, because if this spiraled out of control, she would be the one to suffer for it, not Maggie.Lily did not call to inform Don Grander about her visit, but she hoped to meet him at his mansion, and also make the visit a short one, so that she could return to Christopher’s mansion in peace and plan the date. Lily wanted more than enough time to plan it, because now that the task had been placed on her shoulders, Christopher would expect nothing short of elegant, classy, and downright luxurious and expensive. First of all, Ashley Grander was supposed to be planning this date, and secondly, Christophe
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 143: Stern Reminder
Lily waited patiently for Christopher to get ready and leave for work so that she could go over to Don Grander’s mansion and inform him of a new threat, because for the life of her, she had no idea what she should do with Maggie.As usual, Christopher was very discreet about having his shower and getting ready, and Lily just lay on the bed, waiting for when he would leave. When Christopher came out of the dressing room, Lily’s breath was stuck in her throat, because of how handsome he looked. His suit pants clung to his strong and firm thighs, and his jacket hung to his muscles like it was specifically made for Christopher. Of course it was made for him, because Christopher had a personal designer who took care of his fittings, making him look dashing and ravishing.“Now I can understand why Aimee is head over heels in love with him,” Lily said to herself, because without warning, she had also fallen for Christopher.However, his cruel words still rang in her head, jolting Lily out o
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 142: An Always Available Option
Lily was greatly troubled, so much so that she did not sleep a wink over the night. How could she possibly sleep when she was tormented by Maggie’s revelation and request? “What do I do?” Lily asked herself while Christopher slept soundly on his own side of the large bed. “How do I handle this situation with Maggie?” Lily continued to ask herself. The option of firing her was totally off the table now. If Lily attempted to fire Maggie, she would only be pushed to blow the whistle, and that would ruin everything for her and Joe, and Lily could not let that happen. If her life was the only one at stake here, she would have risked it, but she could not let Joe lose his life and dreams on account of her. Never. “I really need to do something about her,” Lily told herself. Blackmailers were never satisfied; Lily knew this from documentaries and movies that she had watched, and also stories that she had read. Maggie was asking for everything that she could get from Christopher. She

"Get here as fast as you can!” Aimee barked into the phone. She was still very enraged, and she feared that her anger was getting over the wall, which might lead to a heart attack if she didn’t take care of some things, and one of them being Trisha. “I will be there in thirty minutes,” Derek answered over the phone. “Jeez, make it twenty!” Aimee said and ended the call. She was fuming and she needed to vent. She still did not understand why she was getting a mockery text from Trisha of all people, and it made it all the more painful because of what transpired between them. Trisha did not only mock her, she still sent another text message right after that. “Don’t think I have forgotten what I told you in your apartment, Aimee. I am going to tell Mr. Christopher of your deeds, and he is going to make you pay for it. I hope you have realized now that you mean absolutely nothing to him.” When Aimee had read the text, she had smashed her phone in a fit of a rage, and literally scatte
The Billionaire's Fake Wife Chapter 140: An Old Acquaintance
Lily wasn’t sure she had heard correctly; her ears had to have heard wrongly, right? Slowly and gradually, Lily turned and faced Maggie; she had a sinister smile on her face. “What did you just say?” Lily asked. “I know who you are,” Maggie repeated without an iota of fear in her. “You are Lily Bashwood,” Maggie added. Lily almost collapsed in that moment. Her knees became weak, almost making her give way, and she had to fall to the ground, but thankfully, she was still close to the dining table, so she grabbed the chair to steady herself. The confidence with which Maggie had called her name indicated that she truly knew Lily, and that was not a good sign at all. Lily quickly glanced upstairs to check if Christopher had really gone upstairs and was out of earshot, because she would be damned if he got a hang of this conversation. It dawned on Lily that she was in a deep mess here. “How…how do you know?” Lily asked, stuttering. She would have liked to play the denial game, but sh
