The Billionaire's Replacement Bride No Accident - The Replacement Bride
Cayden backed off, afraid to anger Wyoming in her delicate condition. After Wyoming climbed into the car, Alicia turned around to talk to him. “It’s best if we take her, Cayden.” He nodded. He did not want to argue with the elders or raise Wyoming’s hackles in her sensitive condition. He was right, it seemed, when Alicia added, “Her hormones are acting up making her blood boil every time she sees you. If she’s indeed pregnant I am sure the baby would take after you.” Alicia teased leaving him in a daze. “Mom!” Wyoming called out from inside the van, prompting Alicia to bestow an apologetic smile his way before closing the car door behind her. “Pregnant.” He murmured to himself while he tried to wrap his mind around the possibility. It wouldn’t be impossible since he and Wyoming spend most of their night doing the deed. Cayden watched in a daze as the van moved forward before blending into the morning traffic. It was a long time before he decided to get back to the house a
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The Call Slip
Wyoming Wilson looked at her reflection in the vanity mirror that occupied the whole wall of the sparsely-decorated dressing room she was in. A beautiful woman looked back at her - young and innocent -looking. But behind the innocence, a certain sadness lurks in her hazel brown eyes, and if anyone would look further, one could also see something more- desperation. But then again behind that bleak expression, another emotion could be gathered - expectation. In her eyes, two emotions were fighting for dominance - despair and anticipation. More so with the latter. It poses a glimmer of hope for things that have yet to come. “You looked gorgeous, darling!” Max, the top stylist for the upper class, commented when their eyes connected in the mirror. Wyoming smiled wanly and said nothing. She looked back at her reflection in the mirror and studied her face carefully, finding nothing spectacular about her looks that would warrant such an amazing comment from a top stylist of M
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride His Runaway Bride
Cayden Ellish ignored the woman’s question beside him as he fixed his gaze on the priest that would solemnize his matrimony with this unnamed actress as his pretend bride. Five days ago, he did not imagine himself to be getting the services of a start-up actress to pose as his fake bride. And why would he need to pay someone to marry him when he had a fiance whom he loves and intends to marry? But then, his fiance ran away. He could still remember the horror he felt when he found out that she was gone. “What do you mean she is gone?” Cayden Ellish’s left hand formed into a hard fist as he listened to his men whom he tasked to check the hotel room where his fiancee, Tori Hutton had been temporarily billeted. “We checked her hotel room, Mr. Ellish. It was empty when we arrived sir. When we checked with the hotel administration, they confirmed what we found out. Ms. Hutton left last night.” Cayden dropped the call and checked his messages for Tori’s. He found it and saw the
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride His Perfect Substitute Bride
At exactly the same time five days ago, Wyoming Wilson was busy preparing poached eggs on toast for breakfast when she received a call from her manager informing her that she had been called to audition. At the time, projects became scarce. If she does not find another job soon, she does not know where she is going to get enough money to pay their rent and buy basic necessities. Their resources were depleted by her father’s accident. And what’s more, they left an outstanding debt at the hospital which she agreed to pay in six monthly installments. Two months had passed but she had not been able to produce the money to make a dent on their hospital debt. The promise of a new project suddenly gave her hope. With a smile on her face, she ended the call and continued preparing breakfast for her dad. She put the food she prepared on a tray and went out of their small kitchen. She walked barefooted, humming softly to herself while treading the recently waxed wooden floor before
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The Contract Signing
After making sure that she inflicted serious damage on Jeremy, Wyoming left in a huff with nary a second look back to her boyfriend of almost one year. There is so much anger inside of her. There is so much anger inside of her. And pain. Wyoming brushed harshly the tears that fell from her eyes. Jeremy does not deserve her tears. She trusted him. Loved him. She had always thought that what they had was perfect. Jeremy, like her, is an actor. But unlike her, he was able to get major roles while she only managed to land bit parts. He was actually a big star. But nobody in the industry knew about them. Nobody had any idea that they were in a relationship. They had always acted appropriately in front of everyone. And no one suspected them of carrying on a relationship that almost ran up to a year. Why not? They have the same manager and it is not unlikely that she and Jeremy would be tossed into each other’s company from time to time because of their management’s act
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The New Husband
Even in her excitement, Wyoming felt that she had to put in her best performance to match the exorbitant rate they were paying her. She pep-talked herself into doing a great job to impress the Ellishes. She does not want them to think that they made a mistake in choosing her for this role.She was hyped. She had to slay this role and hoped to carve a name for herself in this industry. She has to prove to everyone that she can make it big this time with the right people backing her up - meaning Ellish Film Productions Limited. She started walking down the aisle and felt it odd that the production team chose another nameless, unpopular actor to play her groom. She also noticed a red flag in all these - the presence of Ellish Film Productions stalwarts Marcus and Alicia Ellish.“We are gathered here today to witness the joining of Cayden Ellish and Wyoming Wilson in holy matrimony.”That made her stop. The wedding celebrant used her real name.She also remembered her groom’s name as
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Mrs. Cayden Ellish
Her body stiffened when she realized what she had gotten into. She slumped back on the plush seat looking like her whole world crumbled before her. Cayden saw her expression and took pity on her. “Don’t worry. The marriage is for show only and after a year, you are free to go.” He said to assuage her worry. But the anxious look on her face remained. “I don’t understand, why me?” Wyoming could not help it. She asked the question that was foremost on her mind. “Why not you?” Cayden countered. “I mean, I am nobody. I do not have an impressive record. I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth.” Wyoming said what was on her mind without any bitterness since it was the truth. But Cayden seemed to find it offensive seeing the rigidity in the set of his jaw. She realized that he was a man not used to being questioned for his actions. But instead of cowering from the pointed look he gave her, she grabbed the opportunity of their temporary situation to explain hersel
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Rough Around the Edges
Wyoming did not know how long it took for Cayden’s driver to get them to the hospital. Her eyes were closed as she struggled with her breathing. But she could hear voices - the loudest of them all came from her new husband, Cayden Ellish. He was barking orders at whoever while she was being wheeled inside. The medics soon put her on oxygen. She hurriedly breathed through the cannula. Then they injected something into her arm with Cayden's worried face looming before her. That scene was the last thing she remembered before she passed out. When she becomes conscious again, she finds herself lying in bed inside an ivory room, which feels very calming to the eyes. She bolted upright in confusion. The last thing she remembered was Cayden brought her to the hospital, and they were trying to administer relief for her sudden asthma attack. “I am glad you are okay. You gave me quite a scare back there.” Someone spoke. A man’s voice. Wyoming abruptly spun her head to her left and sa

The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Then There Were Four
Wyoming woke up feeling at ease. She had no idea what woke him up, it was just that her nose had become sensitive. She smelled something that she found not to her liking. She sniffed the air, her nostrils scrunched up in distaste. “What is that awful smell?” She asked hoarsely, opening one eye to check if there was something wrong with their room only to see a semi-undress Cayden hovering above her. His hair dripped wet from the shower. She smiled warmly at him. In a daze, she propped herself on the bed, her hands stretching out to put them around Cayden’s neck. With eyes sparkling in delight at her warm reception, Cayden leaned forward to peck her lips. She meets his downward motion with an upward motion, sniffing at the same time. That was when her nostrils started to twitch scrunching up in distaste for she smelled something not suitable to her taste. “You smell disgusting!” She cried, covering her mouth with her palm to avoid smelling that awful smell. However, the stench s
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Changes
Giggling sounds and laughter filled Wyoming’s ears. Surrounded by her family, her heart felt full. She blushed when she remembered Cayden and her were supposedly hiding from their families. Now, looking back toward the living room, she saw everyone looking at them, smiles wreathing their faces.Overwhelmed with shyness, she buried her face in Cayden’s chest, as if he could hide what they were doing previously from their onlookers. Cayden threw his head back at her natural display of shyness. His laughter started as a low rumble in the pit of his stomach crossing his lungs and finally coming out of his mouth. The sight of him looking so carefree and happy caught her in a daze, affecting her in ways she did not understand but could only feel.“Mommy! Daddy!” Connor’s shout distracted her from her intent perusal of Cayden’s face. She turned her head to the direction of the sound and saw Connor running toward them, his little feet creating a soft thud as his shoe collided with th
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Family
Wyoming got out of the bathroom, a large towel draped around her body, and another one wrapped like a turban around her head. She was about to pull the towel from her head to rub her hair with it when she stopped suddenly. She debated within herself whether to go back to the bathroom and wait for him to leave the room or feign nonchalance.Choosing the latter, she walked inside the room she shares with Connor and stopped a few paces before Cayden.Then she remembered if he was here. “Who is taking care of Connor?” The idea that Connor is playing by himself somewhere inside the house or maybe outside on the beach had her hurrying. She moved about the room, opening a closet to get a change of clothes. In her haste, the towel knot loosened, threatening to fall off her body. She clutched the front with her hand while her other hand held her change of clothes.The towel on her head fell off. Cayden saved it. He held the towel and gently pulled it off her head. “Thank you.” She mu
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Control, Lot's Of It
“Argh!” Wyoming’s fingers clenched, her teeth gritting in frustration while Connor and Cayden, the duo from h*ll did another trick that left her breathless, her body humming in unreleased tension. “Mommy, put some sunblock on my back and daddy’s,” Connor demanded, handing her a bottle of sunblock lotion and turning around, so his back was facing her.She opened the cap, applied some to her palms, and lathered her son’s small back with the lotion.“There, all done. You can now go swim in the water with your dad.” She told him while she placed the bottle of sunblock aside, careful that her eyes led her astray. She had been trying so hard to ignore the rippling muscles on Cayden’s exposed back which he also displayed alongside her son’s. Cayden previously followed Connor’s lead and presented her back to her as well. She smoothed sunblock on Connor but not on Cayden. However, her eyes betrayed her every time. She could not help but look at Cayden’s back, filled with ridges and cur
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The Fire Is Still There
Contrary to what she initially thought, Cayden did not bring them back to New York, back to their old house surrounded by their family. When their plane landed and she got out, she was surprised to find out they were nowhere near JFK International Airport. In truth, she missed her father and would have wanted to bond with her mother. She braved the longing to be with her parents to protect herself and her son from Cayden. She had mistakenly thought that putting distance between them was enough for her and her son to get away from Cayden’s peripheral. Only to be corrected when he came barging in on her despite the distance. “Where is this place?” She asked, looking at the expanse of trees and dirt around them, totally opposite of the City that never sleeps. She was still miffed with him for trying to blackmail her into submission, but she could not totally ignore him. The man is huge and his presence was not one to be ignored. All through their flight, she was fully aware of t
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire!
Chest heaving from anger at the audacity of this man to lie to her through his teeth, Wyoming all but cried, “Liar!” The bitterness of five years ago came to her in full force, flaming the rage inside her. Gaining her memory has intensified the pain like it just happened a while back. She clenched her fist, struggling from her confinement. It was futile, though. With Cayden’s buffed body, he had her trapped very neatly. She did not know how he was able to become this muscled man and still evoke the same feelings from her. His body and her body might change. He became bigger and muscular, and she became softer and fuller due to childbirth, but when their skin connected, it was as if fire sizzled between them.Wyoming could feel the hardness of the wall digging into her back, yet she did not even flinch. The anger gnawing inside her was more powerful than the physical pain. “You can not win me over with all your lies. My son belongs to me. He is mine and you can not take h
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride The Fight Begins
“Where are we going, Collins?” “It’s a secret.” Wyoming fidgeted in her seat but did not press Collins for more information. She was surprised when he asked her tonight. They do not usually go out because their finances are tight. And the few times they did, it was always with Connor. “Relax. We’re not going far,” he told her, seeing her getting all worked up. “I’m just not used to leaving Connor at night with a sitter. You know how he wanted me to lull him to sleep. I’m worried that he’ll raise h*ll when we don’t come back at his bedtime hour. “Don’t worry about Connor. He knows Lizzie and he won’t make a fuss.” He assured her. Lizzie lives next door - a single mother of a four-year-old daughter, Samantha. “To ease your mind, why don’t you call them?” Collins suggested.Thinking it was a great idea, she took her phone from her purse and called Lizzie. “Wyoming? Did you forget something?” Lizzie’s soft voice permeated her ears causing her to feel a little self-con
The Billionaire's Replacement Bride Lonely And Sad
“I am fine, mom.” Wyoming insisted and rolled her eyes for the second time during that phone call. Her mother has been deluging her with phone calls these days and it has become quite annoying. “Will call you back, mom. I have to fetch Connor from the kindergarten. The school notified me they will be released early today.” Wyoming paused, listening to what her mom said on the other line before responding to cut the overseas call. “Yes, mom, of course. Will call you some other time, bye.” She expelled air after she hung up. “Your mom’s pretty difficult today,” Collins commented after she dropped her phone. Wyoming did not like how it sounded coming off from him. He did not even know her. The only interaction they had was when she was at the hospital back in New York and there has been nothing significant about their conversations, mostly getting to know each other, etc. In an offhand manner, she shrugged her shoulders to make light of it. Her mom, she knew, could be a bit
