The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Going to live with them
Valerie’s POV I wrapped myself in a world of color and creativity in the small back room of the art supply store, but my mind was somewhere else. The old woman who had taken up residence with Drake and Charlotte had just shared her ambitious plan with me. As I listened to the details, shock gave way to intrigue and excitement."You can't be serious," I said, my eyes wide. "You want me to live there with you? To be a part of all this?The old woman nodded, her eyes gleaming with the determined sparkle of mischief. "Yes, dear, I have been watching Charlotte for far too long. They are so confident, in their little bubble. But you and I, we can change that, can't we? We can turn things upside down for her.".My heart skittered as I absorbed the possibilities. "And you really think I can just walk in there and do that? What if they don't want me around?"The old woman waved a dismissive hand. "They don't get a say in this. You're strong, and you know how to play the game. Plus, having

Valerie’s POVMy heart was racing while my knuckles had turned white around the steering wheel. The old woman sat beside me.You have to promise me something," the old woman said, breaking the silence that had fallen as thick as fog. "You have to protect Drake from Charlotte and Ron. They'll stop at nothing to use him against you, and you absolutely can't let that happen."I glanced sideways, my stomach clenching. "But how? They're so interwoven in each other's lives. What could I possibly do to shield him from their games?The old woman turned her head, the expression on her face setting into a grim mask. "You'll find a way. You're stronger than you realize. Just remember, some people will use Drake's love for you against him. Charlotte is cunning, and Ron… he's a snake in the grass. Be vigilant."I nodded. My elbows weakened. "I understand. But what if I fail? What if I am not able to protect him? I don't want to get him in harm's way.""You won't fail," insisted the old woman as he

Drake’s POVAs I drove toward the hospital, my heart was racing, the road was starting to blur through my tears. The phone call from Jasmine was a shock in itself, but then to hear my grandmother died in that accident had felt like a gut punch that was leaving me hollow and worn out. I hadn't spent enough time with her, hadn't told her enough how much she meant to me after staying away so long. The more miles I covered in his hurry to get to the hospital, the more my guilt chewed me up.The parking lot now in sight, I parked hastily and fumbled with shaking hands with my seatbelt. I ran inside the hospital, unbothered by the half-curious looks passing patients and staff gave me as I breezed down the corridors. My mind was filled with thoughts of my grandmother. She had a stern, but loving manner, full of wisdom and unwavering strength. It wasn't until recently that I had known how much she meant to me, and now it was too late. She’s gone. My brain couldn’t accept the reality, it was t

Valerie's POV.While the nurse was trying to inject something into the drip I had on my hands, the door opened and Ron walked in, This is the first time he is coming today visit since I got in this accident, and I'm happy he is here, Even though I had requested for no one to see me, I needed some time alone to be able to digest the fact that the old woman who I have been working with and was with just a day ago is already dead. Jasmine made sure I lacked nothing in the hospital and I have not been alone because she knows how sensitive I can be to anything when someone close to me dies in front of me.“Good day Sir, please you need to check if it's already visiting hours before you can come in” The nurse said, “I'm sorry if I sound rude, but I would lose my job if you don't obey these rules”“You should also go around with a watch on your wrist or better still look at the clock which is hanging close to you, before you talk, The clock isn't just made to hang there, you should use it” H
Last Updated : 2024-10-06The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Don’t try to use that against me
Valerie's POV.Drake stopped in front of his home and I just couldn't believe he lived here alone with Charlotte. I have never been here because when we were still together, he made sure he came to see me in the penthouse. Whenever I asked to come see him he would always decline. I never imagined that I would one day be here, Even though I thought that, Not in this way. I looked at Drake who was trying to turn off the engine of his car. If only we would love happily together, What would have been our relationship now, if all this didn't happen? Maybe we would both be carrying our child happily. I sighed, I don't want to go back thinking about the past. Time isn't going to pause or go back just for me. What is done is already done, I can't change things.Besides, I shouldn't be thinking about this, Rather, I should be making plans on how to make both their lives miserable in here, Love isn't my priority now, I was already failed by love, believing it again would be so stupid of me, Bu
Last Updated : 2024-10-07The Billionaire’s Mistress Contracted Wife Obey the rules
Valerie's POV.I fell down with the back on the soft comfy bed, I spread my arms wide, and I breathed in, It feels so nice to be here but at the same time, This is the home where I was never accepted, and I don't think I would, I came here for something, and so I have to do it before I leave. I stood up from the bed, placed my bag on top of the bed and began unpacking. Furthermore, I realized that I didn't come with many necessary things and that's because of Drake. Why did he have to stand next to me while I was packing? I couldn't even concentrate, I'll have to call Jasmine to tag along with me for a shopping trip. That's right! I haven't spoken to her for a while,I sat down on the bed, brother out my number and dialed Jasmine's number, and in two rings, she picked up,“So you decided to call me right?” Her voice came.“I'm sorry, I was very busy and preoccupied with things, I couldn't even get enough time for myself, I'm less busy now, and so I decided to call you, How is work?” I

Drake's POV.Sitting in the living room, my eyes on my phone, Ron walked past me, he was coming out from Valerie's room. I wasn't bothered that he went in there, I was only Jealous, How Valerie always welcomes him with open arms. I stood up from my seat and walked to Valerie's room. Without knocking, I opened the door only to see her unpacking her clothes. “Yes you have to” I said to her, it is unclear to me why she is surprised and shocked about following my rules. This is my home, and she would live the way I want, “Don't you want to do that?” I asked and she didn't reply.I sat down on the sofa, She stood still in front of me, I really wanted to ask her to sit, but I just couldn't. One is my pride, and the other is because I'm still angry because of her relationship with Ron. Ron is someone I would never want Valerie to have anything to do with, But it seems everything is not going my way, She already has a full trust in Ron and Him, I'm sure he is definitely planning something, T

Drake’s POVI sat at the head of the table, my commanding presence unusually tempered by the tranquil atmosphere of the breakfast. To my right sat Charlotte, her blonde hair pulled back into a neat bun, her sharp eyes scanning headlines off her tablet. Valerie was opposite her, stirring her tea absently, her fingers tracing the edge of the delicate porcelain cup."I'm going to go see my dad today," Charlotte said, setting her tablet down and reaching for her toast. Her tone was casual, but I knew her well enough to catch the undercurrent of meaning beneath.I looked up, some spark of curiosity lighting in my eyes. "At his company?"Charlotte nodded, reaching for her juice and taking a sip. "Yes, I have been meaning to speak with him about a few things." She paused, and after a hint of hesitation, she continued, "It's time I get more involved."I raised an eyebrow, my fork stopping in mid-air. "Involved? With the company?"Yes, Drake." Charlotte's eyes met his, direct and unruffled.

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
