The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Faking sickness
Drake's POV I stepped out of the conference Hall. Sheila walked out of my office and collected my file from me. “ How did it go Sir,I hope you didn't have trouble answering all the questions thrown at you?.” She asked, her voice laced with concern. I nodded, walking into my office, Sheila tailed behind me and shut the door behind.“ It went well. I wasn't expecting it to. Thanks for doing a great job." I complimented genuinely.Sheila flashed me a professional smile me.“ If it went well as you said Sir,why did you waste a lot of time in the Hall?" Sheila questioned,her curiosity palpable.Did I waste a lot of time? How come I didn't realize it. It is it because Gregory raised a question about my whereabouts and discussion with a Detective? Gregory was thorn in my flesh. He had always been in support of Ron, right from the genesis if everything. “ Something came up in the meeting that resulted to the meeting being prolonged. It wasn't anticipated or supposed to be raised but Mr

Valerie's POV “ Hey Charles.” I shook hands with Mr Charles and sat down.Charles had called me earlier to inform me that he was able to run a DNA test and also acquired Angel’s birth certificate.He handed the birth certificate and DNA test result to me.“ I brought what you requested." Charles said, his voice low and urgent.I collected it,my eyes darting over the birth certificate. I had to confirm all the information were correct and not falsified.“ The birth certificate is authentic. You did a good job by being able to retrieve this without being caught. Hope Charlotte's friend didn't suspect a thing?.” I inquired, my concern piqued.Charles nodded, sipping from a coffee he had with him when I arrived at the eatery.“ Sge didn't suspect when though she was skeptical about letting me go see her. She told me Angel wasn't home and that I had to come back tomorrow to see her but unfortunately, Angel heard my voice and came running to me. It felt so good having her frail body in my

Valerie’s POV.My jaw dropped, my eyes fixed on Ron's moving lips that produced inaudible words.What had Charlotte told f8n this time? What's is she up? Why would Ron even listen to Charlotte.“ What has Charlotte's you this time?." I asked,my voice dripping with malice.“ what has ahe told you?, Ron Chase?.” I asked again, impatience simmering deep.im my voice.Ron hesitated deliberating on the right answer to give. This only flared my rage. I leaned closer to the table “ have you suddenly forgotten how to speak?." I inquired, curiosity piqued.Charles expression turned grim.“Don't tell me what Charlotte said is true? Tell me it's a lie Valerie." “What is it? What has she told you?" I asked again,my patience stretched thin.Ron's gaze seemed to bore into me.“ You were intimate with Drake weren't you? That's against the rule Valerie. You are not supposed to be intimate with him yet you ended up kissing him. How could you?.”My expression turned serious.“ What do you mean,how c

Drake's POV A knock on my door bursted into my foggy brains. My eyes darted to the door,my mind reeling in thoughts.Who could it be?“Come in." I called out. The door opened and Mia walked in,she took a bow.“ Mr Gregory has requested to see you, Sir." Mia spoke,her voice dripping with professionalism.I arched a brow.What does this devil want with me?" Where's he?.” I inquired.Mia bowed her head." Right outside the door, Sir." She replied.I hesitated, rubbing over my eyes.“ Lead him in.” I ordered. Mai nodded and left , returning a second later with Mr Gregory.“ Prepare me a cup of water. Little sugar,no milk." I instructed. Mia nodded and walked away to prepare it.“ What brings you to my office Gregory? The meeting was over one hour ago,otgr stakeholders have probably left,what are you still sticking around doing?.” I inquired, crossing my legs over.Gregory took a seat opposite me. He smoothed out his suit,his demeanor oppressive.“ I came to see a my old friend. We have

Drake's POV I stared blankly at my computer,my mind reeling in thoughts. Ron and his mysterious plan? I had to find out what he had installed for me.My phone suddenly began to ring. Ron's caller ID danced across my screen. It's been barely an hour since Mr Gregory left. I had to assume he had met with Ron and told him about our discussion. There was no other theory to justify his call.I picked up my phone,my heart racing.“ Why do you choose to disturb my phone?" I asked ,my voice stern.Ron scoffed,his annoyance palpable." Why do you choose to disturb my subjects?” He demanded." Your subjects? Who the hell are your subjects? Oh you mean your great and useful accomplice, Gregory? Just so I envisioned he came running to you telling you I confronted him right and threatened to have our other stakeholders but his little share. Yeah. He came barging into my office, barking so I had to chase the rabid dog away before it plunges its fangs into my skin.” I said and paused." Don't tell

Valerie’s POV “That's quite a dumb action. How could you do such a thing? Jasmine exclaimed. We sat outside on my porch. The cool breeze caressed our skin, leaving a sensation of ecstasy on our mind. Our cups of coffee,a stark contrast of the cool effect from the breeze.I sipped from my coffee.“ I was shocked and perplexed. I didn't know how to react. I was just having a discussion with Charles and the next thing he walked up to me, ranting and asking me why I was hanging out with a lowlife. At first, I didn't pay heed to his Insults but then it continued, intense and hateful, I had to jump in and when I did,he accused me of choosing Charles over him. That was the most lame thing to say. Long story short,I walked out on him. His presence was full of pride and boast. I felt suffocated. I couldn't just stay.”Jasmine raises a brow, intrigued. She leaned closer to me,her mouth to my ear.“He's trying to claim ownership of his property. He wants Charles to know you are his." Jasmine wh

Drake's POV Immediately Ron ended his call, Sheila walked into my office as if she had been monitoring to know when I would end the call.“ There's a man here to see you. He said his name is Mr Freddie Morgan. He requests to see you immediately." Freddie? How did he locate my company? What is he here for?Whatever he was here for,I was glad he came. I needed someone to talk to after such a long hassle.My lips stretched to a smile.“ Please, let him in." I instructed.Sheila nodded at me, left and returned a few minutes later with Freddie.We quickly exchanged handshakes. Freddie grinned from ear to ear.“Hey Fred, what's up? What brings you to my company?” I asked.“ I was driving past the next corporate company so I decided to stop by and say hello. How's work?.” Freddie inquired, his voice dripping with curiosity.I beckoned Sheila. She came forward,my mouth to her ear.“ Prepare white coffee for my guests. A lot of sugar please." I instructed, emphasizing on the word sugar.Sh

Drake's POV The day was over. I made my way out through my private elevator. Sheila had left already since it was an hour past four o'clock. I got out of the elevator and made for my car. My driver was ready,my engine ignited in preparation for my presence.I got into the car, my driver revved out of the parking lot and made his way to the main road.“ I'll be stopping by the Mall to get a few groceries. The mall is close to the public square park.” I instructed, staring into the rearview mirror.My driver nodded, refocusing his attention on the road. We finally got to the Mall where he parked close to a roadside curb. I alighted and walked the Mall. I pulled out a shopping cart and made my way to the beverage section.This was unlike me to do the shopping. Valerie usually does the shopping but ever since she became Ron's girlfriend she secluded herself from things like shopping for groceries. Charlotte on the other hand was too lazy to realize that a few groceries were needed in th

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
