The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 88. Substitute Bride
Enzo Denver.Epilogue2."Surprise!!!"My mouth fell open, and Kyla's shock was evident when we spotted the boys.Aren't they too early? My mind speaks."Milord, Enzo, baby, I love you!" Morris ran toward me with open arms, but he paused a few feet away when he realized I was holding Rhys."Oh, hello little dragon." The excitement in Morris's voice transferred straight to my little boy.Rhys gave him a defensive look and wasn't happy to see him."Come on, little dragon, don't look at me like that. I'm your uncle, Morris, you know. Your big teddy bear." Morris made a funny face at Rhys. I shook my head and slightly laughed."Teddy bear my ass. . . You're a one-hell gorilla," Diezel mumbled behind Morris, and he pushed Morris away."Hello, Rhys. It's your uncle Dez here and at your service," he smiled at Rhys.Rhys couldn't give a shit about these lunatics, and I couldn't give a damn thing either. But the hell, these buddies are also my life."You all look like a gangster, you know. Cl
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 89. Special Chapter
Special Chapter"Should I stay?" Enzo looked at me seriously. I know he's worried about me meeting Kyla.After three years, I am ready to face my twin sister again. It's been a while. The process of her recovery was challenging, and even now, she's still closely monitored. I'm nervous, but I know I have to do this."I'm alright now, darling. I'll be fine. And besides, your mother taught me a few martial arts. I can defend myself." I position a punch, looking silly in front of him.He laughed and then hugged me. "You're a character, darling. I will wait for you down the alley. Don't worry because Rage is around the corner, spying in secret," he chuckled."Yeah, I know that will happen," I sighed and smiled."I just can't leave you on your own. If the kids were not with us, I would probably accompany you. But I love you, and it's better to be safe than sorry."I shook my head and wrapped my arms around his nape. "I'll be fine, Enzo. Just take care of the twins at the moment. The nannies
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 90. Special Chapter2
Special chapter2Enzo Denver.The boys make noise, banging and tapping the wooden table and the chairs when Hendrix finally arrives at the convention. This is not his bachelor's party because this is for Glenn, but the news of Hendrix's another broken engagement spread like wildfire across the country for the fourth time."Damn, salute to the rough record of all time!" Diezel raised the beer he was holding, and the rest of the boys followed with so much laughter.Hendrix shook his head, and everyone's laughter did not offend him. He sat down in between me and Xavion."Where do broken hearts go?" Reeve started singing, approaching Hendrix, carrying a bucket of beer. The boys were having a great time, and I burst into laughter when Diezel and Conrad took center stage with their goofy dance."Oh, shut up!" Hendrix finally spoke. "I'm not brokenhearted, okay? So, stop this crap."The atmosphere was filled with laughter from everyone."Congratulations, Glenn. This is my gift for you." Hen
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride The Matchmaker and the Billionaire
The Matchmaker and the Billionaire.Louise Rose StewartThey say all's fair in love and music.I say love is unpredictable and sometimes unfair.In the name of money, I have to pretend to be the most famous matchmaker in town, which is obviously my Aunt Rosy.It was a twist I didn't see coming! How could I resist when they offered a substantial six-figure digit for the job? This money could alleviate our financial burdens, clear our debts, and ensure Aunt Rosy's medical needs are met.It's alright. It's just a harmless fib, right? A little white lie, and voila! It's all sorted, done and dusted.But it was a mistake. I never thought I could trade my soul. And my soul took my heart, dancing it in the heavens with moonlight in all parts.And now, caught in this so-called whirlwind of love, chances are, I could lose my heart or fight for what it takes to win his love.----Saxe Hendrix MondragonFour unsuccessful engagements led to one solution: finding the ideal matchmaker for a success
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 91. The son
Saxe Hendrix Mondragon .Damn, this challenge. It's a kid's game, but here I am, becoming one of them."Have you lost it?" Elle looked at me suspiciously. Her face and shirt were coated in thick flour, and a few specks of glue were mixed with paper cuttings in her hair. She was in a grave mess, and I knew who was the culprit."I'm pretty sure it was in my pocket." I kept checking my pockets, and there was no way I had lost it."Damn! Did I drop it?" My shoulder sagged. Now, that little lunatic will grill me tonight."You dropped it? Oh God, Hendrix!" she grunts, rolling her eyes in frustration. "Axton will kill you."I paused, considering whether it had slipped out of my pocket, then bit my lower lip while placing both hands on my hips. "I think it jumped out of my pocket, Elle," I said sarcastically."What the. . . Are you kidding me? That was special, you know. Liam made it. It was a limited edition of G-Dragon. It was made of gold! I can't believe you lost it, Hendrix. Poor Greenb
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 92. The daughter
Louise RoseI couldn't help but cry when I hugged Aunt Rosy. She's been living in a care clinic home for two weeks now and is now in a wheelchair. It's difficult for her to get around, and staying here temporarily for treatment will be much better for her than living alone at home."I am here now. I can look after you.""No, Louise. I'm not going to do that to you. You have a life, dear. You can do many things while you are here. Look after the house and manage the flower stall while you are here."She appears happy to finally see me, and I am thrilled to be back temporarily. For my aunt, I am the daughter she could wish to have, and to me, she's my mother.I didn't resign from my job in Singapore, but I was on vacation for four months. My boss was supportive, providing me with plenty of medicinal oil and treatment for Aunt Rosy. She told me I could return whenever I wanted. She understands that my aunt is my only family member and is like a mother to me."You can always visit me ever
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 93. At your service!
Louise Rose.I kept pacing back and forth, thinking of the best solution to this.The amount of money is more than enough to repair the house and sustain Aunt Rosy's medication for two years. That's not bad. Where could we get a deal like that just for matchmaking? It's not bad at all."I'll do it! Let me do it, Rosy.""Oh no. Not you, Louise. You don't know how to do this. It's not as easy as what you think it is."I lowered myself to level into her face. "Look, Rosy, the money we will get is more than enough to renovate the house.""In the next two years, I don't have to worry about your medicine. That will cover it. I know you can no longer do it because of your situation. But hey, I am here. It's not like I have not seen the process.""I've seen you interact with many clients in your matchmaking business, and I can do it!" I've probably got the widest smile now. I have a strong fighting spirit, and I'm confident I can handle the job.She sighed and looked at me with concern. "Mad
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 94. Deceiving
Hendrix.For once, I will stand my ground with my mother's request. I have a plan, and I'm determined to see it through. There's no way I will be engaged again for the fifth time. This time, I will break free from the cycle of arranged marriages.I will no longer do the dating game or an arranged marriage this time. I want to try the natural way of falling in love. I want to do that. I will take Elle's advice.I never expected Rosy's house here in Eden to be one of the poorest in my eyes. I anticipated it would be surrounded by beautiful classical architecture, but I was wrong. It seemed like the famous matchmaker in town was living hard.The willow tree on the side is majestic. It brings a radiance of life to the place. The house was like an old painting that pulled my heart with beautiful memories.Even though the color fades and some grass grows on the roof's gutter, the house still has a character. It's just that it requires a magic touch to bring out the best of it."You are Ros

Louise Rose.A beauty like no other. There are no similarities between them, but I can tell how close they are to each other. Their closeness is undeniable.“Oh please, Hendrix. Don’t be so dramatic. This design will perfectly fit Louise. She’s gorgeous.” Elle looked at me with a sense of contentment.I feel comfortable with her. She’s not what I expected. I thought I would have a hard time because most people born into very wealthy families tend to be perfectionists. But not Elle. She's enjoyable to be with, straightforward, sincere, and beautiful. In fact, she doesn't care about brands and prefers simple clothing.“The side slit is too high. They could almost see her thigh, Elle,” Hendrix complained.“We can always adjust it. Tsk,” Elle shook her head. "That’s it. I’m done with you. I’m not showing you any more designs that Marilou sent. It will be a surprise from now on. You are not allowed to check or decide what we want to wear.” Elle took the brochure out of Hendrix’s hand.“I’
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 131. Happiness
Louise Rose.I couldn't stop myself from smiling. I'm over the moon and hope this happiness will never end soon. But am I afraid of changes? They say you can't be thrilled about much happiness because there's an aftereffect of that.I never believed in that, but now that I'm experiencing this feeling, I'm scared that it may turn bad.I crossed my fingers behind me as I looked at Rosy. She's beautiful today. I visited her early to make sure that she was okay. I can't visit her in the afternoon now, as she gets tired quickly."You are so beautiful, Rosy. I admit you lost a lot of weight, but still pretty as always." I touch the side of her face. She had wrinkles everywhere, and her eyes were soggy. But still, she is the most beautiful in my eyes."Oh, thank you, dear." She sounded weary and had a raspy voice, and her cough gave her a hard time. It sounded so bad."What did your doctor say, Rosy? I want to talk to him. It seems like you're getting thinner each day, and I don't like it."
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 130
Hendrix.She’s addicting like a drug. It’s hard to get her out of my system. I become an animal in bed whenever I’m with her. She can transform me into a .naughtbad guy for sex, and it blew me away. I enjoy it. It has never happened to me before. Everything is new, and I’m loving it with her.I thrust slowly, easing in an inch more, and her body rocks forward. “That’s it, love,” I jerk my head a little, quivering.“Can you feel how badly I need you?” I bit my lower lip, and we stared.“Yes…” She shut her eyes, and her head fell back the moment I thrust into her deeper.This is wild. I’m inside her, full, tight, and magical. I kiss her aggressively, and I fucking struggle with control. I don’t want to come yet, not yet. I want her to go first. I want to do that.“Come for me, baby.” I thrust further, and she whimpered into my mouth."Hend…oh…I need more, please.”I smile wickedly, licking my lips. “And you will get it, baby.” Holding her waist, I lift her slightly and begin my ride. H
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 129. What's next?
Louise Rose.What was that? I was sure I heard someone in the background calling him sugar cups?I twisted my lips, looking confused at the dead screen. I sighed as I spun back to what I was doing.I'm at the flower shop in front of Canor's convenience store. Shella has done a lot of work lately, and she's loving it here. She will be staying here in Eden from now on and will officially resign from her previous job. Her fiancé is fine with it. In fact, he believes it's better for them to be this close.It's past five in the afternoon, and it's closing time soon. Rosy seems tired lately, and they can't get her to stay awake after five. The nurses told me that her medication makes her very drowsy and causes her to fall into a deep sleep.I wonder what's wrong with her? I was sure it wasn't that bad. Her doctor mentioned that she’s fine and will get better soon, but the findings are puzzling, given Rosy’s age.I turn the lights off and shut the shop's door. I still have an hour to prepar
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 128. Back to my queen
Hendrix.What the hell?Steph hugged me tightly, and I tried to move away, but I was cornered."I miss you so much! I'm glad you're here, Hendrix," she whispered, holding onto me tightly."Steph… hang on," I said as I tried to escape her. I was still holding my phone, and Louise was still on the line."Hey, Louise, can I call you back later, babe? Bye," I sighed and ended the call. Steph's hugs were suffocating."Oh? Are you on the call with someone?" She relaxed a little and sat down on my lap, wrapping her arms around my neck. I checked my phone screen to ensure it was off."I need to…" I pushed her gently and stood up. I walked toward the door, eager to leave my office. My two secretaries stood at their desks and looked at me. I gave them a questioning glance, and Santa nodded toward me."Don't give the girls a hard time, sweetie. They already told me that you are on an important call, but I want to surprise you. There's nothing wrong with that, right?" She follows me closely as I

Louise Rose.Now I know.So, Hendrix's mother met Rosy and asked about me.What's her problem with me? She’s driving me crazy, and I will not back down. She wants me out of her son’s life? Oh well, that’s impossible now. I will not give up, not until Hendrix gives up first.I kept pacing back and forth, troubled by the situation. Shella was looking at me in silence, eating junk food.I had a good time with Rosy today. We had a picnic in the garden, and she loved it. She got tired after that and wanted to sleep, so we concluded the day for us, but I will be back tomorrow for lunch again."Stop walking back and forth, Louise. I'm getting fogged," she rolls her eyes backward at me."As I've said, ignore her majesty. She's hard to please, and I heard that she's bipolar. Tsk..." She jiggled her head.I halted in front of her and placed my hands on my hips. "Hendrix has a little bipolarish in him, too, but not bad," I said, twisting my lips.She laughed again. "But you still love him. Boys
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 126. Don't care
Louise Rose.I tilt my head back and hold onto the side of the mattress. I can see stars. Hendrix kisses me down there, putting my entire body into flames. I could only hold back my orgasm for a little while as it came quickly."Fucking wet, babe." He hoarsely said, rising below and crawling back on top. He kissed me, and I could taste my arousal. He parted my legs using his knee, settled in between, and slowly pushed inside me."Hendrix…" I moaned, feeling all the stars again. My nails dug into the back of his skin when he started to thrust.It was rapid, full, and addicting.There's no better way to express what my body wants, as Hendrix can clearly see our desire for each other. I know this is crazy, but I couldn't stop him from wanting me. I couldn't stop this either, as it happens naturally with us.Earlier, I was thinking of how to get away from him, but here I am underneath him, and we are fucking. I tried to open a conversation, but it seemed like he knew that it was coming f
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 125. Wicked
Louise Rose.Spare me, oh God.I looked at Hendrix, annoyed at what he just did. We're back now at our usual spot. Like always, he shut this area exclusively for us. The food on the table appeared appetizing, but I had lost my appetite long ago. His mother's sharp words played like a broken wireless inside my brain, and I just wanted to sleep and go home."Louise…"I blinked and looked at him again, cutting off from what I had imagined."Eat, Louise, and we will talk after this, " he ordered, putting food on my plate."How could you say that to your mother?" I said calmly.He paused, sighed softly, and tightened his jaw. "I don’t know what my mother has told you, Louise, but it’s best not to follow her advice.""She doesn't like me at all." I jerked my head up and chuckled slightly. I can't believe I'm telling this to him now."It's my choice. Your mother wants a wife that belongs to the royalty, Hendrix, and that's not me." My shoulder sagged.He dropped his fork, and it made a loud
The Billionaire's Substitute Bride 124. Confront
Hendrix.It's heartwarming to get a glimpse of Louise's private life. She never mentioned anything about her mother, and I never asked. Every time we talked about families, Rosy was the only person she admired the most. Now I know the reason why. It must be hard on her. It's not easy to grow up in an environment without one parent. But I'm glad that Rosy gave Louise all the love she deserves.Rosy shared the details about Louise's mother with me. She is seeking information on her current whereabouts, and if possible, I would like to help find her before she passes away. Rosy also informed me of the heartbreaking news regarding her health.I felt like the weight of the world was on my shoulders. I wish I could ease Rosy's pain so that she could stay longer for Louise, but her time is running out. Asking for my help to find Louise's mother was her last hope.I promised her that I would do my best to find her sister, Louise's mother, and take care of Louise no matter what happened.I st
