The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Torturing Mr. Stark
"Your husband is still adamant on setting up a meeting with you, he came himself to the company!" Eve was feeling more accomplished these days as she listened to Leonardo's daily report. "Really? Tell him I've agreed to a meeting tomorrow." She replied the attorney who was also a childhood friend.And knowing her as much as he did, Leonardo was surprised. "You want to expose yourself now?" And Eve smiled mischievously. "In his dreams."She would derive so much joy standing him up.And she knew this already because her heart had been filled with a new kind of amusement each night she watched him pace the expansive hallway and make different calls.At least he didn't reek of feminine perfumes anymore."Oh you evil mince. I will have your assistant forward you more documents." "Okay, thanks, Leonardo." Then the green-eyed attorney hung up. With a smile of satisfaction, Eve sashayed out of her room and perched her waist against the wall, watching as her beloved husband made yet anoth
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Confronting Mrs. Stark
Eve's heart stopped for a whole second! "You would go all the way to f*ck this boy just to ruin my family?" She had mixed feelings, but her heartbeat had resumed, fast as her trembling fingers. But then she narrowed her eyes and folded her arms over her chest. Of course, the bastard Alessandro Stark would think she was having sex with the attorney. It would never occur to him that she was capable of being the owner of the company. Of all the arrogant! "Perhaps. Or maybe he was just too good in bed to ignore." Eve would wonder later, why she baited him with those words. But his golden irises darkened; challange and rage and desire filling his pupils. His fingers tightened around the phone, so tight she could see the veins of his long beautiful palms. "You would f*ck anything that can give you money anyway, Ava. For a moment, I seem to have forgotten that." Was that disappointment and betrayal in his voice? Taking one last hard look at her, Alessandro threw her phone on t
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Family Bonding?
Alessandro Stark was enraged as he got down from the car. Ava Wilson-Stark had disgraced him in the worst way possible, Standing the CEO of Stark global Corporation up in public! "Sir, Mrs. Ava said to inform you that..." The security officer who ran towards him started as Alessandro drove madly into the expansive compound. In his rage, he had driven himself out of the gala venue! He'd had to contend with sleazy reporters repeatedly asking if he was already having troubles with his new wife! One had even dared bring up the pictures of him with other women which his PR had taken down within one hour of their publication. Was this her revenge for the way he had ignored her during the honeymoon, had she planned this stunt to gain pity from the public? He was in rage. "Hold it." "But sir..." Alessandro walked past the wide-eyed security man, taking two steps at a time with long strides into the mansion. His chest was heaving when he opened the door to the expansive living ro
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Bully?
One Week Later "Mr. Stark has cleaned her up and fed her already." Sonia gave the morning report on Zoe to Eve as she had been doing for the past one week. "Okay. I will shop for her Thanksgiving diner clothes then." "Oh, he got them yesterday. He must want you to rest, ma'am." Now Eve could only say one thing, Alessandro Stark was going through a transformation! Ever since the hospital incident, he had been returning early and leaving later than usual for work. Once she had even come into the nursery in the middle of the night to see him changing baby Zoe's diapers. And he had been singing to the tiny toddler while doing so! Eve didn't know what to make of her husband's new attitude. It both delighted and left her in shock. "O...kay. I'll uhm... Take Zoe to the doctor when he....my husband leaves for work." And Sonia the cheerful nanny sent her a broad smile, "He said he will come back in the afternoon for it. Oh! Maybe you can go with him!" Now Eve was impressed and also

He finally asked in a calm voice, and before Eve could speak, the willy-nilly manager of Bella had resumed her screams about how her agent had been treated badly."Is it because she's not the wife of the CEO? Doesn't she deserve some kind treatment as well?" Then she lifted Bella's shirt where Eve's heel had been, and gasped in exaggerated horror. "She may die!" Eve parted her lips to speak, but Alessandro met her eyes at that moment, his arresting her into immobility.She hated that he still affected her.Then he shook his
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife The Beginning of a Game
She did regret using physical violence with Bella, knowing she should have retaliated with words.But nothing hurt more than the feeling of starting to trust Alessandro again only to be betrayed.Eve kept her strides steady and made it to the parking lot. She could barely remember entering her car and pulling out her phone, nor could she recollect dialling her father.But before she knew what was happening, her phone screen was wet with her own tears and she was biting her lips as she waited for her father who didn't pick her call.They had asked for more money from Alessandro who would never believe that she had no involvement in their greedy scheme.Eve cried because she had lost her temper, and wailed harder because she wasn't indifferent to the man who would never trust her.Her heart swelled up at the thought of her parents who had never called to know how she was managing in her twin's place.But rather, they were still disgracing her twin's name and her presence by continually
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Players
"You received a package, sir." Mr. Stark's secretary, Erica, stood in front of his desk the next day clutching tightly to an envelope. Her boss had been particularly in a certain mood since morning, which was a lot coming from her, since she was used to her hard hearted grumpy boss already. "Drop it and be on your way." With shaky fingers, Erica obeyed his instructions and scrambled out of his office. Minutes later, Alessandro Stark contacted her via the intercom. "Summon the members of the PR and development department to the conference room in ten minutes. Anyone who is late will suffer the consequences." "Okay sir..." And the call went dead with such a force it startled Erica. The staff at the Stark Global headquarters were familiar with the repercussions in situations like this, and so in less than eight minutes, Erica dialled the Chairman again. "Sir, they are complete and waiting for you." *** Murmurs and confused eyes stared back at the CEO after his declaration s
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Thanksgiving
The new Mrs. Stark wore a black turtle-neck top and a permanent glare directed at her husband, to Thanksgiving dinner.It was a long dinner table that managed to fit everyone as well as their ego comfortably at the back of the luxurious gigantic building where the reputable powerful Stark family lived.And tortured everyone with their judgemental disapproving stares.For instance, as soon as Eve arrived, the older Mrs. Stark turned down her lips and asked, "It isn't Halloween, dear. Why did you dress like the Grim Reaper?" Then the old but classy looking great-aunt questioned her on why Alessandro looked thinner.Thinner? The man was a package of muscles and yummy... Not that she was looking.And the older Mr. Stark actually scoffed and muttered, "She's only with him for the money, grand aunt." As if it were a normal statement and not in any way embarrassing.The gathering was stifling and suffocating with all the proper mannerism expected of everyone and the silence that reigned i

The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Spring
It started out as a kiss, but soon went beyond a mere locking of lips.It was like having two souls merging together, hearts locking in an eternal bliss which completed them both, and made them whole.He tasted her tears which rolled down to her lips, his palm cradling her face like a babe as their eyes fluttered shut.His fingers glided down her arm and cupped her waist, slipping into the shirt and moving around to her toned stomach...Except that it wasn't flat anymore, and that unmistakable bulge had him stilling his movements.His fingers stopped moving, his lips wrenching from hers with a pop."Is this what I think it is? You're pregnant?" His eyes were wide open in bewilderment, his tone ladened with shock and delight.It reminded Eve of the drawer full of pregnancy kits, and she stepped away from him, breathing hard and walking towards a seat."Eve, why are you not answering my questions? When were you going to tell me that you are carrying our baby?" That rage was returning t
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Summer in Winter
It was one thing to be a lover of kids all her life, but Eve soon realised that carrying one's own child wasn't as fun as she had imagined it to be.She had barely entered into the second month of her first trimester, and she already felt like she was carrying a trailer on her stomach.She was blotted and weak most of the time, and going to work had become a tedious task.For instance, being around so many daycare kids whom she had taken pride in being their teacher before, now gave her headache,And also filled her mind with fears of taking care of her own kid properly.She felt nauseous and heavy and everything simply had her overreacting.It was nights like this, when she returned to her apartment with take out that she missed Alessandro, terribly.The last time she checked, he was unaware of her existence and was gracing the covers of magazines with Ava by his side.Eve forced her feet to move, a bead of sweat rolling down her temple from climbing the stairs.The elevator had brok
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife The Conglomerate Chairman's Authority
"I wonder why we've been forced to sit with this classless family of cheats and gold-diggers. I can't believe we all fell for your stupid pretense!"Anastasia Stark was clearly enraged where she sat across the Wilson family in Alessandro's spacious living room, her long legs crossed in front of her.Mr. and Mrs. Wilson were in their best clothes, dressed like they were being hosted by the president of the country.They ignored the angry Stark girl and turned away from the entire Stark family, staring at the television, clearly unbothered.It was only a matter of time before all their plans fell into place.In fact, based on the good news they had received from their star daughter, Ava, the one who had always brought money home, not the other self righteous Eve, it was only a matter of minutes.Soon, Alessandro would come down with Ava by his side and make a grand announcement, and they couldn't possibly imagine what it would be.But knowing how wealthy he was, he was probably going to
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Manipulative Mrs. Stark
The door to Alessandro's study opened stealthily, and a teary eyed Ava came into view and leaned against the wall, her lips pouted cutely.Alessandro looked up from the screen of his laptop and reclined into his seat, pulling off his glasses."Hey baby, you know your cousin is lying right?" She employed that sweet tone capable of melting ice as she sashayed into the study.Alessandro who sat cross-legged in the executive seat rolled it to her direction and beckoned her to sit on his thighs.Ava smiled softly and perched on his powerful thighs, wrapping her arms around his neck."Daniella is lying, she's been trying to get me to have a threesome with them but I refused, then she ganged up with Anna and decided to set me up. You know I would never do that to you, right?"She was unbuttoning his shirt as she spoke, batting her baby blues at him. Alessandro slipped his fingers in between hers, halting her activity."Yes, I know that the woman I married would never do that." Ava smiled
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Knight Leonardo?
One Month LaterWinter in the U.K. was one thing that Eve hadn't missed during her stay in America.It was extremely colder this year, and she had to stuff herself in large sweats and jeans, paired with scarves around her neck and head warmer.But the only advantage the clothes had was that Eve wasn't mistaken for Ava on the streets, which had been happening a lot these days.Apparently, she had underestimated how popular her twin's name and image had become when she was living as her.But now, as she walked the streets of London, she kept her head low, aware of Ava's image and ad videos on the billboards surrounding her.Some of them were of her twin with Alessandro, covering the pages of magazines and headlining events together.It hurt to say that they looked good together, as though there was no difference between them.Eve halted at a bus stop just in time for a bus to pull over, and she stepped into it, conscious of the curious eyes alternating between staring at her and looking
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Back to Default
Morning came with unbearable pain, as reality crashed down on her.How much did it hurt waking up to the man she loved who had just declared that he was also in love with her, knowing she had to be on her way out of his life soon?Eve struggled with so many emotions, tempted even to ditch her sister for once.It was even more painful when she noticed that Alessandro had been awake for a while, staring at her with his head propped against his palm."Morning, beautiful." He muttered softly, and leaned forward to kiss her forehead, his eyes glinting more brightly than the morning sun."Hey" Eve said in response, and he took her hand, bringing her palm to his lips and leaving a soft kiss.Her heart fluttered, butterflies dancing in her stomach.Alessandro made a face, playfully, "Well, I was expecting more than a hey from my wife who just declared her undying feelings for me last night. You feel like bursting with all the love you have for me, right?" The shameless narcissist!Eve pushed
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Declaration
Lies lies lies. Eve was determined not to fall bait to whatever her sister was planning, and pushed herself upwards to her feet, dragging her wet clothes with her and walking past her delusional twin. Ava was either cooking up something or just hallucinating, and Eve wasn't going to be her pawn. First she had accused Alessandro, and now Leonardo? She almost made it to the door when a voice halted her in her steps. 'I am sorry for sending those messages to the douchebag, but Eve wouldn't divorce him despite that I promised to help her! I only thought that he would be forced to leave her and show her his true colours if he found out the truth, that's the only reason I agreed to work with Bella.' It was clearly the voice of Leonardo, and Eve turned slowly, stunned to her bones. Ava was holding up her phone where those damning words were coming from. "Wh.. What?" Eve stuttered. Ava sucked in a deep breath and came close to her, taking her hands and leading her to the bed again.

Eve stuttered, her brain barely able to function amidst all the thoughts and anxiety blocking its passage.Ava smiled and took her hands, pulling her into a hug."Thanks so much for standing in for me, sister. I will take it from here."Thanks for standing in? She could tak
