Livia Washington’s Point of View

My stomach continued to churn, and my heart kept racing at the same rate it had been thumping. Upon seeing him enter his office, I felt as though a large stone had become lodged in my throat, rendering me unable to utter a single word should I risk losing all of my faculties in the process.

"G-Good morning to you. Would you like me to prepare you a cup of coffee?” I had just started to talk when he just walked past me, which was something I hadn't anticipated happening.

I was aware that he was insane. The expression on his face and in his eyes says it all, yet Ajax maintained his silence. My lower lip twitched nervously as I held the handkerchief I was using to wipe the dust away from the surface.

"I-I'll Just make you a c-coffee, then."

As his secretary, I exited the office and proceeded to the part of the building where the other employees brewed their coffee. I took a few slow, deep breaths and focused on calming down before attempting to figure

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 65: Thrown Food

    Livia Washington's Point of ViewI nearly wanted to cry when I went out. Tears pooled down my cheeks but I immediately wiped it off. As a very emotional person, I tend to cry at things that hurts my feelings. However, no matter how tough the problems are, it still makes my eyes red and weary. I bit my lower lip and did what my job was. Maybe he really needs a space for him to think. It's not easy breathing. While I was outside, I tried to do my best and dibert things that will make me sad or think of him. I poured all my attentions at the current papers I'm reviewing because I know that it takes time before a person would open up first. The stockpile he has in his office has a lot. He have been absent for days and I was the one who covered his workloads but only some of his papers since some of his workloads doesn't align to my knowledge and I have 0 comprehension regarding about the topic. I sighed heavily the moment I realized how I missed to hug him while having a conversation.

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 66: Resignation Letter

    Livia Washington’s Point of View The past four days consisted entirely of my trying to persuade Ajax into doing what I wanted. I tried to make amends with him for what had occurred, but he did not reply in any way. Perhaps I inflicted a lot of pain on him... It was all my mistake. I lied to him and didn't tell him that Archer and I are married. I was totally disregarded by Ajax, which hurts me in any way that Archer’s effect in me has been surpassed. If he has a task that has to be completed, he will contact us directly, and the activities that we participate in are strictly for professional reasons. All for business that heavily affects the way I work and my mind process. Earlier in the day, when I was working, I felt like crying. I'm at a loss for words when it comes to apologizing to him for what took place between us. First of all, let me say that I did apologize; however, following that, I didn't clarify to whom I was apologizing or what the problem was. In addition to that,

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 67: Her Tears

    Livia Washington’s Point of View It makes me a little grumpy to move right after I saw the news regarding the two. I took a deep breath thinking whether to contact my dearest friend Janice or not. Nevertheless, I decided to go out and to breathe some fresh air to clear my mind. By the time that the clock ticked at 8 in the evening, I craved for some sweets and went to the nearest department store in my apartment. It was in the town and a few minutes walk downtown . That's why it is also reasonable that the rents these days is high, though I can pay for it in some ways. I was holding my phone just in case I may need it. But when I took it out and tried to call my dearest friend Janice it had no battery at all. City lights are everywhere. Honestly, his office is just near where I am and I think it's just a kilometer away. I took a deep breath whilst trying to walk down the side of the road as my eyes suddenly caught. I am now in front of Rockwell. Rockwell building often has its li

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 67: Fragile Heart

    Ajax Steel's Point of ViewNo matter how dim the whole surroundings was, I could see how red her eyes were. It was all because of the lights around the area, especially to the four wheeler truck that has been passing by as well as the full shot of the new moon. Livia was biting her lower lip by the time she stood up and went to a different location. She was still eating her ice cream even though it already made her hands mess. I wanted to grab her hand and talk to her, but the way she sniffs is making my bite on my lower lip and weakening my body. It is making me vulnerable. Her sobs are making my knees tremble as trains of questions flocks through my mind. I've been wanting to get angry at myself just because of what I did. I knew she had a lot of things in mind recently and she was just trying to weigh down our problem a little. But then, I was just giving her silent treatments instead of correcting our mistakes and communicating with her with efficiency. When we're already at th

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 69: Like a Dog

    Livia Washington's Point of ViewIt was so heavy to bear. I couldn't even imagine how Ajax would stop me just by calling me baby and trigger all the emotions I bear for the last few days. He gave me the softest and weakest facial expression he could ever give. The warmth in his hands and the way he uttered those words made me want to run toward him and aim for a tight and secured hug. I was biting my lower lip whilst waiting for him to speak. Ajax stood straight and now, the coldness in his eyes vanished but instead, it has been switched to more logical emotions. "Why didn't you come to the office today?" He muttered in a low baritone voice. Is he really serious about asking me that? I thought that Ajax had seized me because he wanted to become angry again. I thought that he would tell me more what's on his mind, pushed me into a position where I would no longer have to prove myself more but Ajax's sudden statement was the contrary. "I resigned…" I said. His jaw clenched as well

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 70: First Man

    Livia Washington's Point of View I went home with Ajax in his penthouse. He wanted me to sleep with him eagerly so I agreed. By the time that we went there, Ajax and I went directly to his bedroom. He sat down on the sofa whilst he grabbed my hand and urged me to sit above his lap. He loosened his tie, pulled out some of the buttons in his white long sleeves as the hair on his chest began to peak. I bit my lower lip whilst I pushed myself more to him. He became very clingy from the moment we came here. The black halter crop top I was wearing along with my leggings are too thin and the reason why some sort of my body has showed up underneath the clothes I was wearing. "Do you frequently use this kind of shirt wherever you go out?" he inquired with sudden emphasis in his voice. "No. I was just too lazy to change my clothes earlier, that's why I only came out wearing this…" In his soft and gradual move, a small smile crept on my lips when he suddenly snaked his hands on my waist wh

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 71: Protection

    Livia Washington's Point of ViewThe thin line that kept our figure to take each other's warmth was our clothes. By the time Ajax held my chin and aimed for a kiss, I knew we wouldn't be able to rest for the whole day as the scenario that will follow will extort a lot of our energies. A small soft chuckle escaped from my lips the moment Ajax began inserting his hands inside my halter cropped top. It was too seductive, and even my curves are showing. Some people who often see me ask if I am a model and when I told them no, they were trying to get my number and asked if I am interested. Though I am also into fashion, I've never seen myself walking like a model and couldn't picture myself in the future modeling in front of many people and ramping in a fashion show. "How about I take this off?" He muttered in my ears solemnly. He held the lower part of my top as his kisses went to my cheeks down to my neck. It harbors a lot of feelings when he does that, especially the common heat a

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 72: A Mother’s Please

    Livia Washington’s Point of View For the past few months, nothing became a hindrance to our relationship although there are some instances that he said I frequently make him jealous. I surrendered all my accounts to him so that he wouldn’t think of anything suspicious to me and have access. At first, Ajax doesn’t like it as he values the morals of privacy but I am the one who initiated it. He told me he trusts me but for better assurance I am not contacting Archer again, I gave him my accounts and didn’t know whether he was checking it or not but these past few days, he opened up a topic about a certain family picture I had with him and the Washington’s. Though that was years ago and he was so jealous that Archer was holding my waist. I told him what the situation was back then and later on, Ajax just bobbed his head and hugged me tight. I noticed that he was a very territorial person. He doesn’t like it when men flock in my way and often hold my hand in public and low-key pull me

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    EPILOGUE

    Third Person's Point of View"Are you seriously telling me that now, Ajax? When the event start any moment from now?!" I blurted out as he was behind Livia, caressing her small waist and lifting the dress she was wearing. "Just a quick fuck, please. Just a quick one." Ajax couldn't stop himself from claiming Livia again. Today, the christening of their baby will going to happen and anytime soon, the visitors will arrive one by one especially when everything was settled yet she was cornered inside their room and he was asking for a good fuck. In just a span of a few minutes, Livia already got wet. Her hands are on the table while in front of them is a mirror. Livia could see their reflection on it, especially Ajax's broad shoulders. He was staring at her straight in the eyes through their reflection, and each push and pull Ajax made Livia moan. "Careful, baby! My dress might get torn!" Livia asserted, trying to remove Ajax's hands on her chest. It was a limited edition dress from

    Livia’s Point of View ***MONTHS LATER***The whole baby section was filled with women finding better and cute clothes for their a month old baby and above. Anyhow, my eyes set on all the things that I bought at the shop where Steffany and I went to. Samantha and I already gave birth but she was busy with her child. I gave her an invitation to shop with me along with Janice but she couldn’t since her due date is near. It was when Steffany and I were the only ones who shopped whilst Ajax’s mom, Aunt Andrea, is the one who’s looking out to our kids. “That would be $2,789 in total, ma’am.” The cashier asserted. “Here.”“I received $3,000.”Paying everything using my own money was beyond my expectation. I used all of it to buy my children’s needs when Ajax was giving me a monthly budget but I didn’t spend most of it. Instead, I stock it for Andre’s studies as he will begin his grade school where Ajax graduated. Steffany and I have gotten close. Andre doesn’t even want to let her go but

    Livia’s Point of View “I can do it!” I asserted whilst taking the plate to the sink. Ajax groaned. It was when his eyes shut directly at the maids who were in the dining area. “What’s the purpose of having a lot of mates when I’m paying them well but you’re doing household chores? Damn it!” he exclaimed before combing his hair using his fingers. I rolled my eyes, didn’t let him do whatever he wanted but instead, I went overboard and then halted him. “Now you’re cursing at me, huh?”His expressions melted. It was when he tried to reach for my elbows but to my anger, I gave him the plate I was holding forcefully whilst our family were watching us together. I was mad at Ajax! “Fine, do it yourself then! Curse at me again and I’ll throw you out of this penthouse!” I irritatedly asserted. “That’s not what I meant! I’m not cursing at you!” My eyes widened hearing the tone of his voice. Now, I can’t imagine he’s shouting at me. My jaw dropped as a couple of silence surpassed us both wh

    Ajax’s Point of View “Where are they?” I consulted my friend, Caspian, who was in charge and had his men behind us. The warehouse was dark, but we could see some men around it and seeing that there was only a light on the second floor made me clench my jaw. Before we came here, we made sure that we had a plan beforehand. Otherwise, we’ll get screwed and I can’t risk Livia getting into trouble and severe conditions. “It seems like they are on that spot.” I heard one of them say, “Move quietly.” the leader of this operation stated. Our initial plan was to come inside but let a spy go first to see what’s the condition. Archer was also here, along with the man he brought that literally came from the army. I don’t even know why the fuck I approved of him meddling with this thing when I can handle it myself. However, I just let him be because I could sense his sincerity as long as he wouldn’t execute something that might irritate me. “Use this, Ajax.” Caspian said, giving me the bullet

    Archer’s Point of View My blood boils. I was raging in anger seeing the man across me was Archer. He has been on my sight for the past few weeks and frequently joins meetings where I was also there.The moment that the meeting ended, many people started to leave until it was only between Archer and I inside the conference room. I was about to leave when Rue hurriedly came inside the conference room. "Ready the car. We'll go somewhere else." I stated whilst looking coldly at him. "You can't leave, sir. We received very devastating news," he muttered with such worry in her eyes. "Livia disappeared. It was seen in the CCTV that she was kidnapped and the driver was their ally. It seems like Gianna was a spy and we didn't know she would attack us like this!" My jaw dropped. Everything about me crashed knowing Livia vanished. Archer and I couldn't believe that he wanted to conduct an investigation and told me to wait but I didn't wait so I opposed him. Livia is my woman. She's the love

    Livia’s Point of View My body was not in its best condition the moment I moved. I feel dizzy… my body was sore as I couldn’t move from where I was. Slowly opening my eyes was the horrific thing I did after the blur vision was set aside. Terrifying feelings crept within my body. Realizing I was inside a cell sent goosebumps seeing the location where I currently was being imprisoned is for those evil who deserve to be here. My feet and my hands were tied whilst the floor was creeping cold to touch my bareback. I took every chance I had to stand up, ogling at every corner I am with and finally seeing a shadow of a woman made me burst in anger. “Take her out.” Her cold gestures made each man from nowhere open the cell where I was. The smell of the place stinks as if I was in a warehouse that was full of dead rats. Gianna showed up in the dark, bearing heavy make up whilst polished well with her not so short elegant dress. Her hair was tied up, whilst she had dark eyeshadows on her e

    Livia’s Point of View Staying at home is the most boring thing I’ve ever done for weeks now but at least, it'll make us safe and sound after the countless death threats Gianna is giving me. We know it came from her. The death threats are horrifying especially when I'll just wake up one day to find that there was a box outside the penthouse with a dead rat on it. Horrifying, isn't it? Ajax and I became extra careful especially when it comes to our son, Andre. After Ajax and I fixed our family, he told me to move in completely with him. Andre was happy, he was also pressuring Ajax and me to give him another sibling which makes my cheeks burn each time he says that. Ajax told me everything I should know. He apologized to those days that he was absent whilst I cried myself to sleep thinking about us. I had no choice, I couldn’t get in touch with him and Ajax wouldn't answer his phone. I overthink a lot… but all of the pain I felt has been switched into something more beautiful. “Are

    Livia’s Point of ViewI was left dumbfounded whilst Ajax was in front of me. I tried my best to cast my emotions away but I couldn’t. I missed him… I longed for his touch and the kisses we shared together. Looking straight at his eyes makes everything deep inside me to throbb. How many days have we not seen each other? Five days? A week? Two? Damn. “I want to a-apologize first.” I muttered solemnly. “It's not my intention to keep everything to you. I was just waiting for the right time. But if you are really mad, I understand and I have no intention of complaining. Of course, you have the right to know everything. After all, I lied to you despite knowing the truth…" I muttered whilst playing with my fingers. God knows how nervous I am right now. This conversation seemed to be in demand, and both of us really need to talk about this otherwise, we'd lose everything that we both built. Ajax wasn't speaking. He was just letting me squeal my sentiments whilst we're inside our son's priva

  • The Billionaire's Hired Surrogate    Chapter 97: 100% Blood Related

    Livia’s Point of View I rushed to the hospital without even drinking, eating or even washing my face. I wanted to get angry knowing neither Gianna and Ajax were there for Andre and thinking that Ajax wasn’t there makes me pissed. Andre was rushed to the hospital but Ajax didn’t even go there for his child. His nanny, Steffany, told me that Ajax wasn't answering her call and didn’t even go home last night. “Really? What about Gianna? She's a very irresponsible mother! She should be with Andre 24/7 knowing she was his mother!” I said whilst my blood was boiling. Andre was sleeping in his bed when I came here. Steffany was worried about Andre. He was sick, he caught coughs and colds waiting for his father to come home but he ended up getting a fever. I was beyond pissed when I thought of Gianna who wasn't doing anything just to be here. It was when my hand drifted to his arms that has bruises on it. My jaw clenched seeing that part of his arms and foot were turning purple whilst som
