The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife I want breakfast in 30mins
Drake's POV The morning sun filtered in, casting a golden glow across my room. It was past eight already and I was still in bed. Thankfully, today was Saturday. I had plans with Sam. We had agreed to meet at a coffee shop at twelve noon.A soft knock jolted me out of sleep, I rubbed my hand over my eyes, stretched out with a yawn before my eyes finally landed on the wooden door barricading me and the intruder. I stretched out again, the urge to return back to school overwhelmingly subduing my urge to remain asleep. The knock repeatedly came again with persistence and urgency.Who could it be? “Come in." I ushered, facepalming myself. The door creaked and Valerie's visuals came into eyeshot. She had a cup of coffee and homemade cookies in a saucepan. “Good morning Drake." She flashed a smile at me, placing the coffee and cookie on my bedside table. She walked over and sat beside me, making to touch my face when my monstrous glare stopped her hand midway.“ What are you trying to d

Drake's POV I got into my car, I unwound my window glasses, adjusted my rearview mirror,ignited my engine and drove down the busy highway. The afternoon sun was up, bright and scorching. I took a rightward turn,my phone dinged immediately.I held the steering with one hand and attended to my phone with the other. My phone lit,a message from Sam popped up.SAM: Meet me at Francisco and family tea shop, a mile away from the United Bank corporate building. Please make it snappy, I have other clients waiting.ME: I'll be there in twenty minutes. I texted back and refocused on the road. I drove down and took a rightward turn driving at a steady speed. I contemplated stopping by the hospital to see how Charlotte was doing but then I had an appointment with Sam and it was almost twelve noon.My phone lit up and began to ring. Ron's caller ID danced across my screen.My brows pulled together. Why is he calling me?“ What is it Ron?." I asked with displeasure. I didn't have time for unneces

Valerie's POV I came out of the shower,a sudden chill enveloped me as soon as the AC touched my skin. I firmly hugged my towel hoping my body could generate heat and drive the cold away even though I knew it was just temporary. I had a towel loosely wrapped around my head, holding back water droplets from streaming down my body.I reached out to my drawer and grabbed my lotion. My hands are pulling out the towel around my head.My phone lit up and began to ring. I reached out and grabbed it,my eyes scanning the contact ID dancing across my screen. Ron.“ Hey Ron." I answered by placing my phone on my dress table.“ Hey Valerie." He replied with his voice sounding as if he just woke up from bed but I knew someone like Ron couldn't just be waking up from bed by this time.“ You didn't keep me updated on everything happening in Drake's manor. If you don't fill me in on everything,how am I supposed to help you plot your vengeance on the two love birds." Ron said, his voice laced wit

Drake's POV Sam listened with keen interest. His eyes flickering with hope. He had Americano tea and was leaning deep into his chair with his eyes bored into me. “It ended up with a cumulative amount of $120,000. I am still shocked as to why I haven't received another debit alert yet but I hope I don't. The experience is traumatizing." I sat straight,my eyes fixed on Sam's face." I need your help Sam.” I demanded,my voice dripping with urgency and politeness. I downed the rest of my cold Americano tea ahead and watched as Sam took in my request bit by bit." I am willing and ready to help you achieve your aim but that's going to cost you a huge fortune.My face dropped , I looked away. A huge fortune?Why was Sam talking as if he wanted to dupe me of the money I had left? My palm massaged my chin ,my thoughts bubbling through my frail mind. I was willing to pay whatever he offered me“ How much is your charge?." I asked,my gaze unwavering.Sam cleared his throat, my mind missed a b

Valerie's POV “ You don't mean everything you just said to me!" Jasmine exclaimed, clapping her hands in awe. We were both seated on Valerie's bed in her cozy little bedroom, sharing a packet of pizza and milk. Her house was my home. I felt inner peace being within its walls. It gave me comfort. Jasmine was more than a friend. She was someone I'd wish to be my sister if I was given a second chance at life.“I guess that's what she deserved. Sometimes I feel like Charlotte would never get enough pain for what he did to my baby. It sucks how much pain I had to go through because of her.” Jasmine pats my shoulder, a compassionate gaze radiating from the onyx depths of her eyes. “ It's going to be alright. Losing your innocent bae must have put you in so much grief but I bet you Charlotte is going to pay with everything she holds dear." Jasmine picked up her milk and made an imaginary click with the air. I giggled and relaxed.“She's definitely beginning to pay for her crimes." I pick

Drake's POV Charlotte's ward's door opened and I stepped in, the heavy smell of antiseptic spray greeted my nostrils immediately. The ward was quiet except for the soft hum from the lifesaving machineries around her.Charlotte who I presumed to be asleep raised her head at the sound of my approaching footsteps. A grimace pulled on her face as she sat up. She locked gazes with me, fierce and unwavering. Her face was pretty healed up,with a few marks left on her face which could be easily concealed with a good makeup. Her tooth was still missing.“ What are you doing here?." She lashed at me as I took a seat on a hospital cushion.“ That's no way to welcome me." I snapped back, giving Charlotte no room to insult my presence. After all, my family owned the hospital.I hiss slipped from Charlotte's lips. She looked away.“ I came to check on you." Those words sounded forced. I still had my suspicions not until Sam had proved my hunch wrong. For now,I trusted no one, Valerie, Charlotte a

Valerie's POV I wasn't expecting Charlotte back home. Her arrival took me by surprise. Drake had left the house immediately after breakfast without saying a word. Not that I cared if he did. “ Welcome home ma'am," Shirley and Mia greeted, each with a radiant beam that caused my stomach to churn. I was heading downstairs for a glass of water when Charlotte walked in,her eyes taking in the beauty of the house she had missed.She sniffed in Inhaling the lavender scented candles positioned around the house.“ How I have missed this!." She mumbled,a deep throated sigh slipped through her mouth.I walked into the kitchen quickly filled my glass with water and headed upstairs.“ That's no way to welcome the host of the house." Charlotte's said,her voice halting my midway the stairs.My grin tightened around the glass. I turned around locking gazes with Charles.“ You are not my host. As much as you are an owner of this house,so am I. Let's not forget that." I cautioned sternly and walked

I already too occurred with the fraudulent act pulled on me that caused $120,000 to go out of the company's purse.The Solstice Ball party was a party where employers and their employees had a night off,wore masks to parties in expensive attires and exquisite beauties.It happened once a year and was always memorable. It was a day for relaxation by both the employees and their employers. A lot of staff looked forward to it with high hopes and so did I but firstly I had to sort out some important problems.“ I have it under control. Thanks for the reminder." I replied absentmindedly and took a bite from my toasted bread.A blush tainted Charlotte's cheeks. She loved being showered with praises.My phone lit up and began to ring just as I was about to take my last bite Sam's caller ID popped across my

Valerie's POV Two weeks later.The doctor attended to me while the nurse administered a pill for me to take. It's been two days since I was rescued. A lot has happened over the past two weeks. Now I am here for the test results which were conducted two days ago.Charlotte had kept me captive for a week and two days before I was rescued. How Drake and the police found me was absurd but I was glad Charlotte was behind bars.I was glad to be free even though I stayed a week and two days in captivity.*Flashback*“Here's your food, pig. Make sure to eat up and be done in five minutes. I'll be back to collect the plate.” Charlotte hissed and spat into the food before placing it on the ground in front of me.She pulled at my hair and confirmed the tightness of the chains around my body, hissed again before scurrying out of the dirty dark room where I had been kept captive for only God knows when.For four days,I hadn't had anything except water. Charlotte had made it a point of duty to spi
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Force the guards to throw you out
Drake's POV My chest region wanted to explode. It was exploding already,my heart racing as I listened to Valerie's voicemail.Ron had forcefully taken the company from her? How? I thought they were working together in pulling me into mud? Is she making a mockery of me or is she damn serious?She sounded serious. Her voice dripped with fear and uncertainty like she didn't know the next step to take. I dialed her number but I didn't go through. Something was off so I decided to go home. I wasn't expecting her to be home but at least I could corner her while she's packing out of the house.I quickly entered my car and the driver sped off at full speed. We pulled up in front of my lawn for ten minutes. I quickly alighted, sprinting into the house.I quickly made it to her room, knocking frantically on her wooden door but there came no reply. I knocked thrice and still no response.What if she's in the shower?I tried to be considerate but then she had identified herself as an enemy. Fr
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Sleep tight
Valerie’s POV I didn't know if Drake had received my voicemail or not but I hoped he did. This was all my fault. I should have listened to Jasmine. I tried calling Jasmine but the network connectivity of my surroundings was poor and I couldn't reach her.Luckily,I got lifted by a cab driver riding along my path and he brought me down to Drake's house. I got down from the cab, thanked the driver, and offered him a few bills which he kindly turned down before revving out of the lawn. I felt grateful for his kind lift after I had spent close to an hour trying to find my way home.I sluggishly carried myself to the porch, approached the door with a soft knock.My legs began to tremble beneath me. Here I was standing in front of Drake's house,a man I had just taken his company and a few valuable assets from him and handed it to his stepbrother.No response.I knocked again, this time louder and more pronounced.Shortly after,the door creaked slightly, opening to reveal Mia's face.“Welcom
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife He convinced me to do it
Valerie's POV My legs vibrated beneath me as Drake walked up to me,his gaze devouring. He took the mic from me forcefully, his gaze shifting to the crowd.“I am so sorry for this misunderstanding fellas but think this lady is probably drunk and needs to be taken care of. Guards please lead her away.”Drake commanded his voice dripping with authority and power.Two men leapt forward and snatched my arms, grabbing and holding onto me tightly. They began to lead me away but Ron was quick to intercept. He landed both guard's a kick to their groin letting them retreat away and unrest erupted from the onlookers.This definitely wasn't what they planned to be their soulful entertainment but surprisingly they had no choice but to sit and watch it play out.Drake rage boiled over the surface ,his anger simmering onto his oceanic blue eyes.“ Why the hell did you do that to my guards Ron? What right do you have to waltz in here and disrupt a party that lots of money was spent on to organize? Wh
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife A loud murmur
Drake's POV My car pulled up infront of a the magnificent hotel, an exact replica of a castle in fairy-tale. My driver quickly alighted, turned around opening the door for me. I stepped out of the car,the cool evening breeze caressing my skin. Charlotte stepped out as well,her arm quickly slipped around mine. She flashed me a sheepish smile, holding unto her purse tightly. I straightened out my suits, applying a fresh layer of deodorant, adjusted my glasses before making my way into the Hall which was bustling with loud music and bangers. Alot of guests had started arriving, staffs especially. Junior staffs to be precise.I looked around, my eyes dancing across the hall untill I spotted Sheila whispering into the MC ear.She seemed to be telling him to begin immediate actions since I was already in the room.The MC nodded understanding whatever she had to say. My gaze left thier faces and got focused on Charlotte who kept tugging at my suit.“ I don't want a single wrinkle in sight
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Illegitimate son
Drake's POV It's been two days since i had the most terrifying nightmare of my life. Why would Valerie appear as an old woman seeking revenge? Why did she constantly accuse me of killing our baby when I indirectly and directly didn't have a hand in it.Till date, I had no answer to my question. I literally just couldn't comprehend why she had to disguise herself as an old hag. I didn't take it so literal but I knew Valerie wasn't happy with all that had been happening to her. I was going to find out sooner than later.The foreign investors and I had lost contact. Sara had stopped receiving and returning Sheila's texts, emails and calls. She must have cautioned herself to avoid being snuffed out or caught by her Boss who would probably be livid at her. I had told Sheila to keep on sending texts untill Sara eventually replies.Surprisingly,the ball solstice was to hold tomorrow. It was such a great day anticipated by a lot of people. Me ,my stakeholders and my employees,the junior staf
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Breakfast is ready
Drake's POV “ Wait Valerie, listen to me." I yelled repeatedly but Valerie wouldn't listen,age kept on moving, her pace gradually increasing.“ Please wait for Val. I have something important to talk to you about. The road ahead of us is quite dangerous. You need my help in navigating these dark paths. Let me help you." I urged, calling into the night air but Valerie wouldn't listen.“ Leave me alone." She managed to say, her back h at me,her pace a little.“ It's late and dark, lonely and scary. You need to come back to me. The driver is waiting. If we keep on going through this path,we might lose the driver entirely.”Valeria chuckled scornfully “ I don't mind losing the driver. I don't want to go with you. Leave me alone.”Valerie's steps increased as she surged deeper out of the light and into the darkness, navigating through the wood and thick bushes like she was quite familiar with her environment.“ You are threading into the bushes Val. Am sorry I called you out tonight. We
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Cheers to us
Drake's POV “ Out of my fucking room before I lose it. You are a fucking chameleon. You always change your skin to fit a favorable condition. You don't care about others. You only use them to satisfy and pleasure yourself. You only use them when you have something to gain. When they have something meaningful to offer." Charlotte's expression turned pitiful,tears pricked at the corners of Charlotte's eyes.“Drake, I care about you. I am not exploiting you. I care. I want to care.” she tried to touch me,my devouring gaze stopped her hand halfway.“ I want my personal space but if you're willing to give me the space I need,get out of my way, I am late for an appointment." I sneered and shot her a glare.“ Drake, listen to me." Charlotte pleaded.I frowned,my annoyance flaring.“Get out of my way,I need to use the exit door." I ordered.Charlotte's feet didn't budge,it rooted firmly to the floor.“ pl–.” I shoved Charlotte away, stepping out of the room immediately." Sleep in the room
The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Out of my room!
Drake's POV 3:45 Pm. I kept staring at time,my mind divulged of any means of keeping itself occupied until I was ready to leave.Sheila had dropped the audio tape from her interrogation from twelve junior staffs. There wasn't much attached to their conversation but I was able to pick out something. They didn't have contact with the foreign investors considering there were based in the ground and second floor of the building.Sheila had promised to continue tomorrow even though I saw how exhausted she was. Interrogating a total number of twelve staff members alone was no easy feat. I had stopped her from carrying on with the interrogation considering the company had seventy staff and ten contract workers.She couldn't bear the burden of twelve,how would she bear the burden of sixty eight more staff. There were other ways to snuff out a culprit and I would find it out sooner or later.The door to my office opened and Sheila walked in with a glass of water. I asked if it's almond time
