The Billionaire's Mistaken Wife Chapter 18
"You're not coming home with us, mommy?" Rious asked with a hint of disappointment in his voice."I'm not, my dear. Maybe next time. I need to go back to our house," I replied, gently caressing his hair to reassure him."The house with your daddy too?" he inquired innocently."Yes, sweetheart," I confirmed, my gaze briefly meeting Karious. We were in the car now, heading back home after our trip. I felt a sense of urgency as I knew I would only be home for a few days to collect a sample from Veronica. My frustration was mounting as I realized how difficult it was to get this problem done. It felt as though all my efforts were being blocked, leading to dead-ends, just like with Yasmin's case. This is why I sought help from a private investigator to expedite the search for Yasmin.The car eventually stopped in front of our gate, and I bid Rious goodbye as he slept peacefully through the flight."Message me when you get home, okay?" I requested Karious as I unbuckled my seatbelt."Yes. W

"No way?" I raised an eyebrow at her.She responded with her eyes with a hint of panic, "What I meant was, you can't marry that man. I already told you he's married, and he has a child.""I know. He was honest with me about it," I replied nonchalantly."And you still agreed to be with him?" she asked, clearly in disbelief.I chuckled at her reaction. "Come on, I'm not a fool. He's divorced now.""But are you okay with the fact that he already has a child with someone else?"I looked down for a moment before meeting her gaze. "That doesn't bother me. I'd rather have that situation than being forced by Dad to be with one of his friends. I couldn't stand that, seriously. So, I'm grateful that you came into the picture and Dad stopped pushing me towards his friend. It's a relief you're here." I offered her a genuine smile.She frowned, but as soon as she saw me watching her, she forced a smile again. "I'm glad I could be of help, sister."I prevent myself from laughing out loud because of

"Is this okay?" I inquired, having just tasted the kare-kare dish I prepared.With a smile of satisfaction, I patted my own shoulder and praised myself, "Very good, Kassandra! This isn't just skill anymore, it's pure talent! How did I manage to make this dish so delicious on my first attempt?"I was relieved that I didn't end up taking too long to cook for Karious and me. Although I already plan to make use of morning for this preparation and just go to work after my lunch date with Karious.I packed the remaining food in Tupperware and then took a shower to freshen up.Of course, I decided to keep this as a surprise for Karious, even though I had already told him that we would have lunch together. He believed he would pick me up from my company, but little does he know, I have planned to visit his workplace instead.Around 10 am, I finished all the preparations and left the condo. Carefully placing the food on the back seat, I drove to Karious' company, ensuring nothing spilled.His

"Hah! Really? Begging Karious again, are you? Going to try to wrap him around your little finger once more?!" She scoffed as she glared at the food I had prepared.I responded hesitantly, "Um, I believe you've mistaken me for someone else. Please don't jump to conclusions." I took a deep breath, trying to control my frustration and anger."Get out! What else are you doing here? Your audacity is astonishing! After what you did to Karious, you have the nerve to show your face? You're nothing but a cheater, a bitch, and a criminal."I clenched my fists, trying to maintain my composure as I approached her. This girl's insults were really testing my patience. While I understand her hatred towards Veronica, it's unfair to treat me the same way. I've also had my share of issues with Veronica, and this Veronica’s actions were only further tarnishing my image."If you're referring to Veronica, I have nothing more to say. You don't need to curse at me. I'm not your enemy."She smirked, continui

"I can't believe that the girl dad replaced mom with is actually my age. This is so absurd!"I overheard the following conversation as I was about to head outside."And that woman has the nerve to act sweet and clingy in front of us! If you ask me, she's just a gold digger! She thought she was beautiful, but it's obvious her nose was fake!" I unconsciously touched my own nose. I have never undergone plastic surgery, and for that girl to suggest that Veronica's nose is fake makes me wonder if she thinks mine is too. I can't decide if I should be offended or irritated by her remarks.Today, we had a party at our house to meet Veronica's future husband. He came with his two children, and I met this woman while making a call outside."That's it! I won't allow their marriage to continue. No way! I won't let her replace mom in our lives," a thought and a feeling of determination stirring within me.I approached the woman slowly, the sound of my heels catching her attention. She ended her ca

I swiftly dialed Karious' number, and he answered just as I expected. We couldn't hear each other, so I motioned for him to wait for me upstairs. Climbing the spiral staircase was a bit challenging, and my dizziness worsened, but I managed to come to the second floor.Reaching the top, I finally laid eyes on him, but my excitement turned to disappointment when I saw him chatting with another girl. My vision may have been slightly blurry, but I wasn't going to stand for this. I marched towards them and shot a disapproving look at the woman. How dare she talk to my man? I then gently pulled him towards the railing."Got you!" I announced, wrapping my arms around his waist and nuzzling into his neck. He chuckled and hugged me back warmly."You're quite tipsy," he teased.I protested, "Just a little," forming a tiny space between my thumb and index finger. "Just this much," I giggled.His masculine scent intoxicated me, and I couldn't help but feel affectionate towards him. I playfully sn

"Oh, my sister! Are you crying?" I woke up to the sound of Veronica's voice.I removed my hand from my face and tried to refocus on my work."Did you see any tears to know I was crying?" I asked sarcasticly."Well, I'm sorry. I just thought you might be upset because I heard from dad that you and Karious had a fight." Veronica said nonchalantly but still with curiosity evident in her eyes.My eyes rolled. "If you're here just to find out what happened, I'm sorry, but I'm not in the mood to talk about it.""Don't worry, I'm not prying. But if you need someone to talk to, I'm here to listen." She sat down on the sofa and grabbed an apple from the table.I gave her a sarcastic smile. "That's kind of you, but no thanks. I can manage on my own.""You can try. I've noticed you don't have many friends, Kassandra. It must be tough. I want to be there for you, so you won't feel alone."I sighed, dropping the folder I was reading. Despite my irritation, it seemed she was determined to stay. Oka

"Are you having someone follow me?" I asked incredulously, shooting a disapproving glance at the man standing before me.I couldn't fathom that Karious would go to such lengths just to track my movements and pry into my affairs."You never mentioned you were going to the bar alone again. And to top it off, you're with Veronica," he said, trying to control his anger as he breathed deeply.I rolled my eyes, refusing to be intimidated by his anger. "So what if I went to the bar with Veronica? We're just having fun! I've met her friends.""You know Veronica is dangerous—""And what? Is that why you're making someone follow me? Hah, I just found out about it now. Why? Don't you trust me anymore after I told you about Yasmin? Karius, I'm only trying to help you here! If you're angry because I'm interfering, maybe you don't really care at all," I retorted, frustration evident in my voice."That's not true. I do care about you and your safety," he said, his tone softening as he took a deep br

The Billionaire's Mistaken Wife Special Chapter 2
During the months that I hadn't seen Kassandra, I felt like I was slowly losing my sanity. All the fear I experienced when I learned about the accident she had faced had me on edge. Not finding her body in the burning car gave me a glimmer of hope that she might still be alive. Veronica revealed that the woman in the car was her. She pretended to be Kassandra. This was one of the reasons we hesitated to expose her deception, as we suspected she might be holding Kassandra captive. However, as I tracked and observed her, I realized that even she was searching for Kassandra. I hadn't thought her to be that cunning. She had succeeded in tarnishing Kassandra's reputation, and when the truth came out that she had done nothing, she stole Kassandra's identity. I informed Kassandra's father that the girl we had been with was an impostor. To my surprise, he was already aware because Kassandra had left behind the results of a DNA test and some evidence in his office. Together, we devised a pl

Zackarious "Where is she now?" I asked over the phone. "I found her entering a bar, sir. She's now on the dance floor, dancing," said my investigator. My jaw dropped when I heard it. And finally! my ex-wife, Veronica, also showed up. I've been searching for her for weeks now because I intend to make her pay for what she did to our son. Stealing money from my company? I can forgive that, but harming my child? I can't overlook that. She cheated on me several times and left us for another man. I admit that I was preoccupied with work, but I made every effort to cater to all her desires. I can't believe she would betray me like this. I married her when I learned that I had impregnated her. I've had past relationships with women, and accidentally impregnating someone is something I cannot turn my back. So, even though I didn't have strong feelings for Veronica, I married her. We were together for years, and even though our family wasn't perfect, I made sure that we stayed together and

This is the last chapter of the story. The next chapter would be special chapters under Zackarious point of view....I woke up lying in a hospital bed, the world slowly coming back into my senses. The voices of people talking around me filled the room."I want that woman and all her accomplices to rot in hell!""They definitely will, sir. The case filed against them is layer by layer. We also have lots of evidence, so we can definitely win the case."I gradually opened my eyes, greeted by the sight of a white ceiling. The voices drew closer."She's awake!" someone exclaimed. Footsteps approached, and soon after, I saw my dad being pushed in a wheelchair by a nurse. Tears welled up in his eyes as he tightly held my hand."My child, I’m sorry! It's my fault why this happened to you. If only I had listened to you from the beginning, you wouldn't have suffered like this!" he cried.A smile broke across my face, though my eyes brimmed with tears. I hadn't seen my father in a long time, an

WARNING: This chapter contains violence not suitable for young readers. This is a work of fiction but still, you may find the scenes distressing enough so I highly encourage everyone to stop reading if underage. Thank you.I tightly shut my eyes, tears streaming down my cheeks. The regrets of yesterday flooded my mind. There were moments when I had complained about the life I lived, not realizing that someone like Veronica had been working tirelessly to take my place. Memories of my mother's final moments rushed back to me. She had expressed her happiness at my birth, despite being abandoned by those she thought would protect her. She had told me that I was her only treasure, her one hope in a world that seemed determined to see her fail.I could barely recall her voice, but her scent and her warm embrace were etched deep within my memory. Though our time together had been short and devoid of many happy moments, I knew she had always been by my side, silently guiding me. I had harbore

"You know how fortunate you are, Kassandra, because you have parents. Everything you desire is handed to you on a silver platter. You've never had to wander the streets, yearning that you should have never been born. You know what's ironic? I even liked your father, despite knowing that his promises to hand me the company were empty threats for you. I knew he was just trying to intimidate you. I suspect he's aware that I'm not truly his daughter. But you know what made me happy? He accepted me, even though he knew I wasn't his daughter. But what have you done, Kassandra? You've only hurt your father, rebelled against him. If you talk back to him, it's as if he's not your parent. You should be in my shoes, because you don't deserve all the privileges you have," Veronica sneered.I shot her a venomous glare."And you know what? When he found out I had an accident and supposedly died? He hardly seemed to care. He even appeared to breathe a sigh of relief because, instead of you, it was m
The Billionaire's Mistaken Wife Chapter 52
Instead of heading straight to Dad's place, I made my way back to my condominium. I stood in dumbfounded silence, staring at my own reflection in the elevator. I knew what lay ahead if I followed Veronica's wants. No matter how many times such choices were presented to me, my resolve to obey for Rious' safety remained unshaken. He was the most important, and I cared little for what Veronica might inflict upon me. I just wanted Rious to be safe.Acting swiftly, I changed into pants so I could move more easily to escape, packed essential items into a small backpack, and tried to come up with a plan, although my nervousness about Veronica's intentions enter me. Regardless, I had to go through with it. If it was true that she could predict my actions, I had to catch her off guard.I stashed money, knives, water, and crackers in my bag. There was still ample time until the scheduled meeting, so I had time to strategize how to be ahead of Veronica.She claimed to know when I reported anythi

I woke up the next day and I found myself alone in bed. I was naked when I peeked under the blanket. I couldn’t see Karious in the room. He doesn’t seem to be in the bathroom either because I don’t hear any noise from there.I stood up and quickly entered the bathroom to take a shower. I smiled as I observed several red marks that were scattered in different parts of my body. I feel sore but satisfied. I also feel glowing. I just woke up, but my face and hair seem healthy. I bit my lip as I remembered what happened last night.That was actually the best! I came so many times I lost count! I would love to do it again this morning if I ever found Karious lying beside me but unfortunately, I woke up alone. I wonder where Karious is now.I hurriedly entered the shower, aware that I had lost track of time lost in reverie about the previous night's escapades. As I stepped into the walk-in closet, my expectations were already set: I wouldn't find any of my clothes. To my astonishment, howeve
The Billionaire's Mistaken Wife Chapter 50
As we stepped into the elevator of Karious' condo building, an irresistible urge took hold of us, and we found ourselves unable to resist the pull of each other's lips. We descended to the parking lot, our hands still intertwined. A tangible symbol of anticipation filled the air. Thoughts of what awaited us in his condo stirred a mixture of excitement and nervousness within me. This was the first time our relationship would progress to such an intimate level without the influence of alcohol and I'm gonna make sure that I will not forget this tomorrow. As we walked hand in hand, lost in each other's presence, we barely registered the curious glances and hushed whispers of the employees around us. They can’t do anything anyway but watch. They can’t oppose us either because it’s our life. I doubt that they have any idea what is happening. When we reached our car, it was a good thing that Karious drove because if we had a driver, we might have done something inside. I might go home with
The Billionaire's Mistaken Wife Chapter 49
I halted just before entering the office, and there stood Karious, leaning against my desk. I had intended to greet him with a smile, but the intensity of his gaze made it seem as though he wanted to tear me apart from where I stood.He swiftly approached me making my eyes widened, and I instinctively backed up until my back was against the office door."W-what?" I stammered as he came to a stop right in front of me. He was so close that I nearly stumbled, pressing against the door."How long do you plan to hide from me?" His voice was tense as he asked. Nervousness gripped me."What do you mean, Sir Karious?" I inquired, my voice quivering.I don’t say much about my plan. If this was about my true identity, I suspected he might already have a notion that I was Kassandra, so I wasn't sure what he meant by hiding."If you needed help, you should have sought me out," he stated calmly."I need you. That's why I'm here with you," I responded softly, my gaze locked on him.He averted his e
