The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The Kiss

The food was great!The Tiramisu, Cayden was sure was up to par just like all the rest prepared by its Sous Chef Costello himself. The problem lies with their stomachs. They could not accommodate another bite, despite having been wonderfully prepared.Their eyes connected over the table and something in their eyes flashed. Wyoming did not understand how easily they understood what the other one wanted. In a beat, they both stood up, abandoning their table and walking briskly to the restaurant’s main door. The confused waiter, or cameriere as the Italians called them - Cayden shared that bit of information earlier, watched them leaving. They were evading Costello's ire - the famous chef is also well-known for his explosive temper - so they opted
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Protective, Aren't We?
Wyoming moves briskly after being jolted awake by the sound of her phone notifying the arrival of a new message. Her heart started to beat its usual erratic beat seeing it come from Cayden. After kidnapping her at the hospital and bringing her home Saturday night, she had not received any word from him except today. That night, he snatched her sleep away from her. Cayden’s actions bothered her. While she appreciates their being friendly with each other, she could not understand why the need to go overboard and make her misinterpret. The kiss, for example. Wyoming did not know why he did that. Had he forgotten about their contract? Should she assume more from the kiss?For two nights, she tossed and turned - unsure of how to make of his action. Then, she remembered what her father said. Protect your heart. Wyoming realized that even if she wished for things to happen differently, they won’t. She was no Cinderella, and Cayden was not her Prince Charming either. The sound
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride And The Farce Continues
Wyoming covered her face with her hands, too embarrassed by the words her straightforward best friend dished out in front of Cayden’s managers. She was uncomfortable as well since some of them eyed her with impassive gazes but refrained from saying anything against her for fear of earning the boss’s displeasure. The ground that held the company was still shaky because of the arrival of Cayden, and most people, especially those in the top managerial posts, tended to cotton up to the new boss to gain or maintain their footholds in the company. Some would blatantly challenge Cayden’s authority, Matt Burgess shamelessly stood up to question Cayden with this recent move. “Are you out of your mind?” Matt Burgess bellowed in a verbal attack on Cayden, who remained impassive, standing behind his Wyoming's chair at the head of the conference table. “I do not know where you learned this from, but your plan is a failure from the very beginning. Why use an inexperienced actor when you can
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Caught Off-Guard
Cayden’s announcement shocked everyone. As for herself, Wyoming did not know how to react. Cayden resolved the setback due to the absence of her partner and acted decisively in this time of crisis. Although she prepared herself for any untoward incident that normally happens on the set, she did not bank on this one or the twist that followed. Cayden would be her partner. A small smile laced the corner of her lips. In truth, she had been fidgeting earlier - nervous at the prospect of meeting her photoshoot partner for the first time.She did not know the model personally because, like her, he was a start-up chosen for the role in a last-minute audition the team conducted after Cayden did a showdown with Matt Burgess in the conference room. In truth, Wyoming prefers a partner she knows personally to ease up the tension inside her, though she restrained herself from making any demands, owing to the fact that she did not want to add more fuel to the fire. Cayden giving her the big
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride A Man In Waiting
They broke apart self-consciously. Max's unannounced appearance, doused the fire their self-imposed seclusion created away from the outside world. Awareness that they were not alone sharpened, and so did the feeling of awkwardness, making the air around them thick in their silence. Wyoming berated herself when reality set in, questioning herself and the sanity of her own actions. How did she allow herself to drown in his kisses? Max’s untimely arrival saved her. It was a blessing in disguise. If Max did not arrive to interrupt them, where would that kiss lead them? Probably, too hardcore petting or worst. Wyoming did not want to think how far she would allow herself to go with just a kiss.Red-faced in shame, feeling that she caved into her basest instinct, again, made her reassess herself and rethink, widening the gaping silence between them. Finally, Cayden broke the ice, but it only added to the awkwardness between them. "I have been waiting for this girl to come back
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Playing Hide And Seek With His Feelings
“Where’s Wyoming?” James poked his head at the small crack on his door, dismayed when he found his friend alone. He expected Wyomingwas with him after he snagged her out of the studio the second their shoot concluded. Cayden looks up from the document he had been reading for a while now to watch his friend’s careful approach.“She left. Grandpa Noah asked for her.” He supplied and bent his head back to the document on his table to resume working, temporarily forgetting about his visitor's presence. James, used to his best friend's behavior, sat on the couch near Cayden's desk, propped his feet up on the center table, crossed his arms to use them as a pillow, and bent his head back in a leaning position. “I was hoping we would get out to celebrate. Today is Wyoming's first major project. We should at least congratulate her.” He commented lazily, darting a sideway glance at Cayden, who continued his preoccupation with the documents scattered on his table. “What are you doing?” J
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The Party
“You look stunning!” Wyoming was startled at the softly spoken compliment, pulling her out of staring into space to watch her husband’s careful approach from the reflection in the mirror at the center of the room. She looked around her. Max already left after he helped her prepare for the company launch and welcome party held at the five-star hotel and resort owned by the Ellishes. Their eyes met, causing Cayden's face to lift in appreciation. On the other hand, the eye contact left a sigh escaping from Wyoming's lips, allowing her eyes to linger over her husband's reflection in the mirror.Cayden's looked dreamy in his black and white three-piece suit. His attire matches Wyoming's black and white satin sheath gown, with a slit that goes up to the mid-thigh and a wide neckline exposing her creamy shoulders and collarbone. “You look dashing, yourself.” She commented huskily.Her breath came out labored while she waited for Cayden to reach her. As always, Cayden’s mere pres
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Her Defense
Cayden looked impatiently at his watch, unaware that half of his attention was not on the person engaging him in small talk, but elsewhere, or more specifically, on the wife, who left his side a while ago without letting him know. Wyoming took advantage of his preoccupation with someone, and because it was impolite to cut their conversation abruptly, he stalled for a while. And now, he could not see her anywhere in the venue. David, an elderly gentleman, was an investor of the conglomerate and one of his grandfather’s associates who had known him since he was a small boy. “It was unfortunate that I came in late and missed Noah.” He saw the disappointment in the other man’s face. “He was discharged from the hospital today, but would still need time to recover. Maybe, I could entice you to visit him at home?” He suggested, wanting to get rid of the other man with subtle hints, but the other party was not taking any, to his dismay. He craned his neck, looking for Wyoming from the
