The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 11: The Office
Gwen thought it was a good decision to have gone for a formal look before leaving the house.She hadn't imagined that she would accompany Finn to his office, but she was at least presentable now that the situation called for it.As they entered the building, she appreciated the fact that Finn had a personal entrance from the garage, so she wouldn't have to walk by his side in front of every single person.But, as they reached his office's floor, they did meet a few people that threw curious and intrigued glances at her. They probably weren't used to seeing Finn enter his office with a strange woman at his side.He was always the kind of guy that kept his work life and his personal life separate. Maybe that's why everyone was looking at her with a question mark on their faces.His office was crowded with a lot of men in suits and a woman who she assumed was his secretary Melanie."You can come in, it won't take long," he said to Gwen as they reached the door.She felt uncomfortable with

"What?" she asked, in a low voice.Though she hadn't known what he might say, she had never imagined he would offer her a job."I'm not doing this as a favor, before you think that. But it could be a good thing. I would be close to Cody and you could grow in your career while being with your son," Finn explained, his voice tinged with a bit of hope.Gwen suddenly felt dizzy. She was still trying to adjust to the latest changes, and now there was another offer on the table. One that wasn't bad at all. But she had to remind herself of why it could turn out to be a terrible idea. Even though Finn didn't sound naïve, she knew that it could be very complex for her to work with him. Co-parenting was already something that was starting to give her nightmares. She could hardly imagine working closely with her ex.At that moment, it was pretty clear to Gwen that her feelings for Finn still existed. She was trying very hard to ignore it, but every day it was more obvious that what she thought i

After setting things up with Finn, he showed her around the company and gave her an office and an assistant, Joe, a new graduate who was very eager to help.Gwen pretended not to notice a few eyes checking her out. She was sure that was going to be something frequent, especially after everyone find out that she was the mother of Finn's son. She would have to prepare herself for that.After getting acquainted with everything, Finn asked someone from the marketing department to guide Gwen through their internal process. He excused himself for a bit and said that he would meet her later to take her back home.Gwen was excited, though she still felt butterflies in her stomach. It had been a long time since she started something new in her life, so she was trying not to freak out.She texted Stephanie and asked her to watch Cody for a bit longer, since she had to settle in a bit. She would have to find a new school for Cody as soon as possible; she couldn't continue to ask favors from her f

Finn squatted down by their side, as softly and calmly as he could, but Gwen could tell that he was also extremely nervous.What if Cody didn't accept him? It was almost visible how his brain was working at that moment. She knew it was also a very important moment for him, and she could not neglect that. If it was the other way around, she would be feeling desolated. Cody looked hypnotized by Finn, as if it was the first time seeing the man. Gwen was also very nervous. What if this hurt him in some way? What if Cody resented her for hiding his father for so long?It was true that maybe Cody wasn't old enough to understand all of that, so all she could hope was that Cody didn't give it much importance now that he had his dad around."I think I would like it, mommy," he finally said, and Finn let out a deep sigh in relief."That's great, baby. Remember that mommy said that your dad worked a lot and didn't have time to visit us?" she asked, still keeping her voice soft.Cody nodded, sti

A few weeks had passed since Gwen introduced Finn to Cody, and they were spending a lot of time together. She was actually surprised that Finn would have so much free time to spend with him, but she wasn't complaining.Ever since Cody discovered that he had a father, the little boy talked about it day and night, which was making her kind of jealous. But seeing her son so happy and delighted was worth anything.Finn was also much happier lately, and people at the company were starting to comment. There was also her new job. Gwen had been busy trying to find a nice place to live, while handling everything she had to learn at work. It was not easy at all, but she could manage it.She asked Finn to help her ship her and Cody's belongings from their old home. She also called the landlord of her previous home to cancel their rent contract, and hired a company to pack her stuff. Finn was going to take care of the rest for her.He also insisted that he was the one to choose the apartment she

Gwen still couldn't believe that it was already the night of the party. As she put some make up on, her hand shook with nervousness. She thought about taking Stephanie with her for moral support, but her friend said it would be weird to be there, since it was a company party."How am I going to deal with all this alone?" she asked when Stephanie rejected her suggestion. "I'll probably be alone there most of the time, having to bear everyone looking at me like I'm some gold digger."And that was exactly what happened.She agreed to let Cody go with Finn, since it would be weird if she appeared with a kid by her side since no one else was going to bring children to the party. Finn didn't have a plan for his announcement, so he simply said he was going to bring Cody with him and introduce him as his son to everyone while walking around the hall.Of course people asked who the mother was, since Finn wasn't married. Gwen heard a few comments about the kid not being Vivienne's son, which ma

Gwen released her arm from Finn's hand, anger replacing her previous nervousness. She wasn't that rude to his mother anyway. Mrs. Lane had been much worse, with her rude implications and sneering looks.So why did Gwen have to accept that and stay quiet like a submissive person? She wasn't going to accept it, especially not from his mother."Maybe you should ask her instead. I don't owe you any explanation," she replied, looking at Finn in disappointment. It wasn't his fault though, and she knew that. Finn had no idea of the shared history between the two women, but Gwen wasn't going to be the one to tell him anything. He wouldn't believe her anyway."What do you mean ask her? You two just met," Finn said, also angry.Gwen gulped."I don't have to say anything to you, okay? And you know what? I'm going home with Cody. This party is over for me. Actually, it didn't even begin.""No, you're not," Finn refused."You don't tell me what to do," she replied, with her head up. "It's already

Good thing the next day was still the weekend. Gwen didn't feel like facing Finn or any of the employees. The previous night had been terrible for her and all her dreams were filled with giant eyes staring and disgusting fingers pointing at her.She knew it was going to be hard, but when it happened, she wasn't ready for it. Now, she would have to face all of it at her job, every single day, until they had something better to talk about and forget about her.She shared it all with Stephanie, and the woman was about to spit fire from her nostrils. "Holy sh*t!" she whispered, trying to not to be heard by Cody. "How can someone be so fake? That woman is the devil in person, that's what. I can't believe she pretended not to know you," she complained, not trying to hide the anger she was feeling.That made Gwen feel a bit better. At least someone understood what she was going through at that moment."And Finn was trying to understand what happened? Thank God you didn't say anything, right?

The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 50: Promises of a Better Future
One year laterGwen had been a walking bomb lately as she organized everything for the wedding. Even though Finn had put every type of professional needed at her disposal, Gwen wanted to be present for every single decision.Ever since she said yes to his proposal when they were spending a weekend getaway in Hawaii, Gwen decided that she wouldn't be just the CEO's wife. She wanted to keep control over things, continue to work and make her own choices.She knew what that position would bring to her life, but she was finally ready to accept it. She had proven herself enough, so whatever the media had to say about her, she was ready to take it.But for her surprise, when people discovered about their engagement, Gwen received a lot of gifts, got a lot of offers from companies for modeling, and even discovered a whole fanbase that rooted for her and Finn.Cody became the happiest kid in the world when he heard that his mom and dad were going to get married soon. Gwen could never have aske
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 49: Mother and Son
"What are you doing here?" Finn asked, recovering from the shock of seeing the woman at the door. He had just received the call he was waiting for the entire day, and he did not expect her to show up so soon. In fact, he wasn't expecting to see her at all.Marcy sneered, passing by Gwen as if she was just part of the furniture. She didn't even glance at her."It came to my attention that you were investigating me," she said towards Finn. "Imagine my surprise to know that my son was sending detectives to put their noses in my businesses?" Gwen watched, with her mouth opened, the woman make herself at home as usual when she simply grabbed the glass of wine they were drinking at the balcony and sat on the couch.Finn's expression was hard to read. Gwen couldn't tell if he was shocked, angry, sad or disappointed. Or maybe it was all of those.Marcy opened her small crocodile skin handbag and took a cigarette from it, lit it up and inhaled very deeply, unconcerned about the two staring at
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 48: Revelations
The next morning, Gwen opened her eyes, and Finn was still by her side on his enormous bed. She didn't remember when they finally fell asleep the previous night, but just the memories of their rendezvous made her feel butterflies in her stomach again.She had so much she wanted to ask him, so much to catch up, but she'd rather take things slower this time."Morning." His hoarse voice echoed by her side, and she turned to look at him."Good morning." She leaned forward and placed a kiss on his cheek."Are you feeling better?" Finn asked.Gwen nodded, still mesmerized that she was really waking up by his side. If her past self saw this scene, she wouldn't believe it."Guess we'll have a lot to catch up on the next few days, right?" he joked, pulling her closer for a hug.She stayed there, quiet and cozy against his chest, only feeling him breathe and enjoying that moment."Do you think Cody is already awake? I was thinking we could all skip work and class today and just do something fun,
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 47: Sealed Love
The touch of Finn's chest on her skin made Gwen beg for more. Her body was physically aching from wanting him so bad. She had no idea how she could feel something so strong like that, and it only made her want to continue.Finn had been caught by surprise, but as soon as he realized that Gwen had taken the initiative, which meant she wanted the same thing as him, he put his hands around her waist and pulled her even closer.His hands were unraveling every part of her skin that was uncovered, but it didn't take long for him to get rid of her dress.Gwen felt his fingers squeeze her thighs and her butt, making her gasp with desire. She wanted him. It was that simple. Passing her hands all over his bare chest, she started to push him backward.When his legs bumped into the mattress, she shoved him over it, forcing Finn down on the bed. He widened his eyes at her, and Gwen saw the unspoken question in his gaze. But she had made her mind, and she didn't feel like talking about it at that mo
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 46: Reality Strikes
"Are you sure your heard her voice?" Finn asked, his expression now darkened. "Maybe you imagined or dreamed it, Cody." But Cody was shaking his head firmly."No, daddy. It was grandma. I called her but she didn't come to see me. I think she doesn't like me," Cody stated, lowering his head.Gwen felt sad for her son, but that's what she wanted to hear. That was enough proof for Finn to believe her now, right? If Marcy was at the same place as Cody when he was kidnapped, that was more enough to prove her involvement. She wondered if Finn would think the same.Afraid to make eye contact to him, but dying inside to see how he reacted, Gwen lifted her head to look at Finn, and the scene she saw was heartbreaking.He looked devastated. His shoulders were down, as if he was carrying a truck on top of them; his eyes were looking at Cody, soulless and incredulous; it was like all his energy and kindness had been ripped from him."It can't be…" he murmured to himself. Gwen looked from him to
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 45: Feeling Sick
It had been ages since Gwen had woken up feeling so poorly. The sheet beneath her was soaked in sweat; her head was heavy and her whole body ached. Even the slightest movement made her regret moving at all."Oh, God…" she murmured to herself."Are you alright?" Finn's voice echoed in the dark.The whole room was dark and it was hard to tell where exactly she was. She saw Finn's silhouette as he slowly opened a curtain, letting in the morning light.Gwen blinked a few times to adjust her sight to the sudden brightness, and then she saw the most beautiful sight she'd ever seen. Finn was there, looking at her with concerned eyes, his hair wet, wearing only black clothes which Gwen though that made him even sexier.He came towards her holding a tray full of fruits, pancakes with syrup, orange juice and cereal. A whole breakfast meal just for her; and in bed, which was something that Gwen was not used to at all."I… I think I've had better days," she finally answered, after recovering from
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 44: Cody's Back
"Is he alright?" she asked, getting up from the bed hastily.Her head spun for a moment, and Finn had to hold her and put her on the bed again."Yes, he is. They are bringing him to us now."Gwen started to cry again as soon as reality hit her. Her son was okay. Nothing else mattered at that moment. All she wanted was to take Cody in her arms and hug him like she never did before.The next minutes passed in slow motion for her. She could hear the clock ticking and she couldn't stop shaking her legs impatiently.Finn was walking from side to side, very thoughtful. He didn't say anything else, which bothered her for a moment. But she also thought it was better that way, because she still had a lot to say to him about his mother, and without proof, she would only provoke another fight.When she heard the doorbell, it was like her soul had gotten out of her body. She rushed to follow Finn, who had already been on his way to open the door.When her eyes fell upon the little boy, wearing the
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 43: Real Nightmare
Gwen collapsed on her chair immediately after she heard that. Stephanie didn't need to say anything else; she was pretty sure who was behind it.But nothing crossed Gwen's mind about what to do. If she was right, there was nothing she could do, her hands were tied. But she wouldn't leave her son alone. She would go through hell to get him back."Gwen? Gwen!" Stephanie yelled on the other side, since Gwen didn't say anything."I'll tell Finn, I'll call you back." She hung up the phone, and gathering strength from somewhere deep inside her soul, Gwen got up and rushed to the elevator to go to Finn's office.As soon as she got there, she didn't wait to see if she could come in or not. She simply burst in, invading his office like she owned the place. She didn't care what he was going to think about it, Cody's life was much more important than anything else."Gwen, what happened?" He looked at her with puzzled eyes. He was checking something on the computer screen in front of him, so Gwen
The Billionaire's Missing Heir Chapter 42: Missed Calls
"Are you sure about this?" he asked, taking another sip from his drink. "You won't have another chance like this in your life ever again. Is this because of Finn?"His posture caught Gwen's attention. It was like an entire different person had taken his place. She had never seen Clyde so serious and bitter. His jaw was clenched, his eyes were avoiding Gwen, and his knuckles were white from gripping the glass so hard."I'm sorry, Clyde," she repeated. "I didn't mean to hurt you. I really thought we could make this work, but I can't. I'm a mess right no-""Fine," he interrupted her. "You don't have to explain yourself to me. You can do whatever you want. It's your life anyway."Gwen was left open-mouthed, speechless. She would never imagine he would react that way. He was always so kind and warm to her. Was he really going to treat her that way just because she didn't accept his job offer? Or reciprocate his feelings?But when she was about to say something back, he simply finished the l
