Tessa's eyes widened in shock. She couldn't believe her ears, "How did he get to find out? She thought to herself.

"Whatt?" Tessa said, stuttering a bit but tried to maintain her composure.

"A friend dropped me off" She said, a little bit frightened.

She watched as Aaron stood up and walked towards her, keeping an expressionless face.

Tessa moved back a bit and stopped, looking at him and wondering what he wanted to do.

He reached out to her and grabbed her hand forcefully saying. "When did Alexander Cooper become a friend?"

He goaned, his grip on her hand tightened.

Tessa winced slightly in pain and said "You're hurting me Aaron. Do you get to choose my friends now? He's a friend and he dropped me off" Tessa said stubbornly.

Aaron clenched his fist hard on her hand and freed her. Tessa winched hard in pain. Her hand bruised.

"Your friend huh? Fine. Leave my room" He commanded.

Tessa sighed and left angrily, holding her bruised hand.

As she left, Aaron clenched his fist harder. W

    "You again? Are you following me?" Tessa asked, smiling at him. She was obviously tipsy."Let's just say it's a coincidence, Tessa. I'm glad to see your pretty face again" Alexander said, smiling back at her."So what is Aaron's wife doing at a club alone?" He asked as a smirk crossed his lips. His eyes trailed her body and he lost it, he pictured her naked and on his bed. The thought of fucking her senselessly engulfed his mind. He was surely going to do anything to make her scream his name."I'm not alone Alexander. I'm here with my best friend Mara" She said pointing at Mara who smiled at Alexander and brought out her hand for a handshake. "Nice meeting you, Mara," Alexander said, taking Mara's hand."Can I have a dance with you Tessa? Of course, if you don't mind" Alexander proposed. Tessa was about to decline when Mara interrupted her saying, "Of course she wouldn't mind"Meanwhile, Aaron was at his office earlier when Dylan walked in. "Hey, man. You're still working?" Dylan s

    Tessa woke up with a headache from the hangover. The vibration from her phone didn't help matters at all. As she reached out for her phone, the events of last night flooded her head.She could remember how Aaron carried her on his shoulders out of the club. She felt like she was in deeper trouble than she thought. "Hey T, you finally woke up. I've been calling you, I'm sorry for suggesting the club and insisting that you dance with Alexander. And now Aaron would be mad at you again" Mara said, a surge of concern evident in her voice as she spoke."You don't have to be Mara. Speaking of Aaron, I have to go talk to him and probably explain things to him" Tessa said.After the call ended. Tessa struggled to leave the bed, the headache not stopping which made her groan slightly. Leilani walked in with a cup of coffee "Here, this would help with the headache" she suggested and handed the cup of coffee to Tessa, who smiled and muttered a thank you. Tessa freshened up. She had a short min

    "Of course, that's not too much to ask for T. But what if he actually cares? I saw the hurt in his eyes last night as he carried you out of the club. You know he punched Alexander and the look on his face was unfathomable. He had a look of hurt and disappointment when he looked at you and grabbed your hands. I have to stop here before you end up saying I'm imagining things" Mara added and chuckled. "Right, I was going to say that. Aaron was just disappointed seeing me at the club and with Alexander. You needed to see the way he glares at me like I'm one bag of trouble, whom he can't wait to get rid of. And speaking of Alexander, Aaron seemed to be in a dispute with him and I don't know what could have transpired between them in the past" Tessa said and let out a deep sigh. "How were you able to get home last night?" Tessa asked as soon as the question came to her mind. "Dylan dropped me off. Aaron asked him to" Mara replied. "He did that?" Tessa asked with eyes wide open. "Yeah,

  • The Billionaire's Substitute Wife... She's Back With Twins   016 Why is she this beautiful?

    Tessa looked ravishing in the knee-length blue gown she was putting on, she had a touch of light makeup on her face. Her hair was styled in soft curls that dropped beautifully on her back. She looked stunning and one couldn't resist not looking at her twice wherever she entered.Tessa had gotten used to people's compliments about her beauty all her life but the one person she would have loved to hear it from doesn't even give a fuck about her.She smiled at the mirror, satisfied with her looks. She grabbed her purse and headed downstairs. Aaron's eyes widened as he watched her come down from the staircase, he stared at her without batting an eyelid "Gosh! Why is she this pretty?" He asked himself.He had struggled to suppress the urge he had to compliment her. He shifted his gaze quickly from her and maintained his composure, not wanting to be caught staring.He knew he had to put his feelings in check or else he was going to lose them completely. And Tessa was just helplessly gorgeo

    "I have been married for almost a year and I didn't know he had a sister. I guess there are a lot of things I don't know about my supposed husband" Tessa scoffed inwardly but remained calm.Aaron looked up to his mother, it was as if he had a lot of things to say to her but he ended up saying "Yes, she called this morning, and for the reason you're asking. No, she's not coming back anytime soon, not when…" He paused and said nothing further. Tessa could sense that something was wrong, she just glared at the both of them and remained calm. Dylan didn't seem surprised, it was as if he knew what they were talking about, he was family and it was only right that he knew.Eleanor seemed to be bothered by Aaron's words but she gave Aaron a quick gaze and turned to Tessa who seemed confused at the whole situation. She reached out to Tessa's hand and touched her softly."I'm sorry you weren't aware that Aaron had a twin sister after all these months but that's because we hardly talk about he

    Aaron sat down at his office, unable to concentrate on the paperwork before him. The thought of Tessa clouded his mind, his disappointment was undeniably seen earlier this morning when Leilani mentioned of Tessa's departure.He was going to go over to Dylan's place to clear his mind as everything in the house reminded him of Tessa."She's just gone for three days Aaron, why are you behaving like she was gone and never to return? She's going to leave eventually when Lisa returns, so why act like it's a big deal?" He argued with himself inwardly. "Maybe I should have asked her not to go. Or maybe you shouldn't have" His inner mind fired back.Looking at Aaron, it was safe to say he cared so much about Tessa even when he's trying so hard not to admit it.~~~~~~~~~~"Wait, Aaron has a twin sister?" Mara's voice reverberated in the room, she had come to sleep over after work."Yeah. And it's even funny how I didn't know all this while" Tessa retorted."Well I just hope she's not as mean a

    Aaron watched as he talked. He was sure he has never seen Dylan speak about any lady that way. It was usually a fling for him so this lady has to be really special. "Who is this lady? You need to see your face while you are talking about her. I need to see the lady that had my best friend love-struck like this" Aaron said, curiosity evident on his face.Dylan smirked at Aaron's question. He wasn't sure about his feelings yet but he knew he was drawn to Mara the first day he set his eyes on her at the club. He had trailed her to her house and to the convenience store where she worked several times after he dropped her off that night.His usual self would have made a move on Mara that night he dropped her off from the club and probably get pants down with her but that wasn't the case here. He yawned to get to know more about this lady that intrigued him at first sight even when he only just met her.Dylan growled, getting out of his reverie with a glint of smile plastered on his face.

    Earlier that morning……"Tessa, are you sure about going back this morning, thought you said you're staying till tomorrow?" Her grandmother asked.Tessa dropped her already packed bags and moved closer to her grandmother who seemed really worried about her."Of course, I'm sure Grandma. It's usually boring to stay here all by myself when you and Mara go to work, I think I should just head back home. I promise to come visit again very soon" Tessa added and pulled her grandmother into a warm hug."Alright. But I'm just worried about you, are you sure you still want to continue with this contract? I could talk to Mrs. Winston on your behalf if you want to back out" Mrs. Taylor chimed in as they broke the hug."No, you don't have to. I'm okay staying with him till he finds his missing fiance. And besides, he hasn't given me any reason not to want to stay" Tessa said and gave her grandmother a warm smile."When is that going to be? It's been eleven months already and he's yet to find her.

Mara cuts in, unable to hide her distaste."I'm surprised myself," I lied, fighting the urge to laugh and unveil."I think we should find another restaurant. They've probably closed," Mara countered but before she could say another one, everywhere lights up.Dylan is in the spotlight, he's kneeling with one leg, and holding a red box.Mara's eyes are wide open, she turns and gave me a sharp but excited look. "You knew all along,"I nod, my face beaming with a smile.Aaron and everyone else surfaced, eliciting a chuckle from Mara.Okay, I didn't see this coming. "Tessa I'm holding you down for this. How where you able to pull this off without any loopholes?" she asked, unable to hide her excitement."I try," I retorted, smiling back at her.Dylan's face gleamed as he stared deep into Mara's eyes.

    Tessa's Pov.Aaron is walking hand in hand with Xavier and Jesse, while I carried Zoey who's jingling with joy.I could see they're excited to see us pick them up together.What can I say? Every kid wants a happy family.As we walked to the school parking lot. Zoey chimed in. "Mommy? Are you and Daddy friends now?"Her question throws me off a little. But quickly I recovered and offered a warm smile. "Yes, baby. We're friends. You like that, don't you?"She nods excitedly. "Does that mean Daddy doesn't have to go home after putting us to sleep?" she asked, her voice bubbly.I furrowed my eyebrows, a smile tugged at my lips.

Her karma is here.Vanessa and Dante follows the officers out.I glance at Bill, he's still shocked from what has happened.I'm worried for him but I don't show it."I need to start trusting my guts more. I never really liked her. Now, I know why. Such a cunning bitch," Eleanor breathed, letting out a deep sigh."Aaron, are you alright?" Eleanor asked, her gaze shifting to Aaron.Aaron nods."Don't stress it. I have to go now. Sure you're good?" Eleanor asked, her voice soft.Aaron nods again, giving her a small smile. "Yeah,"Eleanor leans over Aaron and kissed his cheeks. "That's a relief. Talk to you later,"She throws a smile my way before heading to the door."Today sucks!"

    Aaron's Pov Lisa's eyes glint with a disturbing calm. "Dylan, of course you don't know that. I saved Aaron that day and he knows," her voice is firm but lacks its usual confidence.Dylan scoffs. "Oh, stop with the lies, Lisa. You're nothing but a two timing manipulative liar,"Okay now, I'm taken aback by Dylan's words. I knew he never liked Lisa and never shied away from saying it but this is new, what is he driving at?Lisa's face contorts with rage, her composure shattering like glass. "You never liked me, of course you'd say anything to downgrade me," she taunted.Dylan turns to me. "Your accident was all staged by this bitch, then she swobs in and saves the day, making it look like she saved your life. I try to tell you but you wouldn't listen," Dylan said, his words clear and direct.I'm really confused. Lisa lied about saving me, all for what?My whole body explodes on the inside, hearing Dylan's revelation, my mind actually can't calculate this.Lisa staged an accident, this

    Aaron's Pov.After I got Lisa's message, threatening to hurt Tessa and my kids if I don't agree to meet up.I knew that was the last straw.I might've ignored these signs in the past because I respected what we use to share.But one thing I can't take from her it's threatening my family.I need to put a stop to her madness. Damn what use to be.I had invited her over, trying to play her little games. I involved everyone, including Tessa and thankfully she didn't decline.I watched Lisa walk into my living room, on a black hoodie, and a shade, looking like she's on the run, a forced smile on her face. "Aaron!" She exclaimed dramatically, taking a seat beside me.Her face falls flat as she didn't get the reaction she expected. She looks at me, waiting for me to speak up.Wanting to play her little tricks, I managed a smile. "So, how's life treating you, Lisa," I ask, my tone more skeptical than genuine.She got the hint."Oh, please. Don't act like you care," she said defiantly.I smirk

    Tessa's Pov Aaron hugged me tightly, his hand trailed my hair, stroking them softly.I bury my face in his chest, letting the tears flow. The shock, the anxiety, the weight of Alexander's confession– it all comes pouring out."Everything is going to be fine, I assure you," he whispered into my ears.His words are soothing, making my nerves calm a little, but the shock is still there, bubbling under the surface.But for the first time in a long time I want to believe that everything will be fine.Still in Aaron's arms, my mind raced.Why does he have to smell and feel so good?After a moment, I pulled back and wipe my eyes. Being this close with him it's too dangerous with my feelings for him.I looked at him for a while, his eyes are soft and filled with understanding. My expression faltered. Suddenly I felt the need to apologize to Aaron, for refusing to listen and being so stubborn.I can't even begin to imagine what my stubborness would have caused me. My kid's safety!I didn't kn

    Tessa's Pov.With Aaron's evidence in hand, I stride into Alexander's company, a surge of anger courses through me, I could feel my blood boiling.The elevator chimes and I walked out heading towards Alexander's office front door, I walked past his secretary and pulled the door open, ignoring her bickering.She follows me into the office hastily, unable to stop me.Alexander raised his eyebrows, surprised to see me. Quickly he raises his hand, telling his secretary it was okay and she could leave.As his secretary left, he steps in immediately, beating me to it. "Tes, I wasn't expecting you,"I arched my eyebrows at him. "The night you came to my house. Didn't you say you left almost immediately?" I queried, my patience wearing thin.He gulped hard and then his expression gave him away."You perv! How didn't I see through you?" I groaned frustratingly. "How could you do such a thing?"

    Tessa's Pov."Tessa!" I heard my name and I turned to see who was calling.The face clicks. Vanessa, Aaron's sister.I've seen her a couple of times on video calls but trust me, she looked way prettier in person, she's just a female version of Aaron.A man walked behind her as she approached me, I figured out that was her husband, he looked calm and gentle.I didn't know how to react at first, especially when I shut her out too. I've been meaning to reach out to her one of these days but I guess fate beat me to it."Vanessa," I called out as my face lights up a little and then it falters as guilt crept in.Vanessa notices and nudges my shoulder. "Hey, it's fine, trust me I understand," she assured.Quickly she turned, facing the tall man behind her, her eyes sparkling. "This is Dante, my husband," she introduced.Turning to me, she added. "This is Tessa, Uhmm, Aaron's wife—-," she stuttered but quickly she rephrase her sentence. "Tessa, the twin's Mom," she concluded sharply.Dante no
