The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Ava
It wasn't what Eve had expected when she heard that her sister had been found.The address Hannah sent ended up being the ICU of a private hospital, and Eve stared at the building for minutes, feeling numb, before she walked in and found her way to the ICU.The beeping of machines, doctors and nurses in white, visible through transparent glass doors, her mother weeping by the corner of the waiting hallway while her father consoled her...Eve stood in the middle of it all, her feet suddenly too heavy to bear her weight, her fingers trembling, her mouth unable to move."Prepare the OR for an emergency surgery and inform the Neurosurgery department to be on standby." "Yes doctor." The student doctor who had just been sent on an errand dashed out of the room, the brief moment she opened the door creating a little space for Eve to take a look at her sister.Ava was soaked in blood, oxygen mask attached to her nose, her legs wrapped in bandage."Oh God!" A gasp tore from Eve's throat, her
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Dangerous Zones
Alessandro Stark was pissed off, livid, and beyond annoyed.As soon as Eve stepped out of the bathroom where she had gone to dry off, a towel wrapped over her head with a bathrobe on her body, he started,"It's fucking midnight, Ava. Is there no limit to your irresponsibility?"Eve lifted her head from the task of securing the white robe on her waist. She had expected a confrontation and prepared herself in the bathroom for one.But being called irresponsible to her face was as far as she could take.It wasn't Alessandro's fault that he was ignorant to what she had gone through tonight, but she had returned wet and cold,And he didn't give two rats' shit about that!"Sorry, I wasn't aware of the time." She apologised instead of the many things in her head, wanting to put everything behind her and try to sleep without thinking of her sister lying in coma.Eve walked past him to the closet, or at least, she tried to, when firm fingers suddenly gripped hold of her arm and pulled her in
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Flawless Family
Eve opened the door out of the room she now shared with Alessandro thirty minutes after he had left.She had needed some time to recollect her thoughts, focusing on what mattered.Not how much she wanted to be kissed senseless by the husband that hated her. While in the gigantic bathroom, she thought of her sister again, the vulnerability in her parents' eyes and the baby who had wept when she wasn't around.They all depended on her. And the one way to fulfill all the responsibilities she now had, was to become immensely successful, to climb back up from the hole the scandal had thrown her into.But first, she had to get through this reality show. No one could notice a difference between her and Ava, but it was going to be difficult considering how little she knew her sister in the last years.Regardless, she would try her best to be loved by the viewers.That was Eve's decision as she donned a white floral dress that laid emphasis on the blue colour of her eyes, and left her hair s

I like what we have here. Hopefully, the audience will receive it well too. We'll be airing the trailer tonight by seven.""Alright, we will be waiting then." Alessandro shook hands with the director, and Eve pretended she hadn't noticed the female staff check him out.Just as she acted like she affected by his hand on her waist.It had been there since after the meal which ended up being delicious. He had carried Zoe on his other arm, and the toddler was currently trying to grab the strands of his hair with her little fingers.They looked like the perfect family."Once again, it's an honour to meet the legendary Ava Wilson-Stark." It was her turn to shake hands with the director, and she smiled as she did so, physically and mentally exhausted from all the fake smiles and pretence.It had never been easy for Eve to pretend to like something she didn't, and now she had a make a career out of it. Soon, the crew departed, and the mansion once again fell into that familiar silence that
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Tempting
He felt like warmth and oasis after a long desert, the taste of coffee seeping from his lips to hers. Eve wished she had the ability to struggle, to resist these sinful lips that threatened to steal her common senses away, but she simply melted into the kiss, body and mind. Those strong fingers slid from their hold on her hands and glided upwards to her head, slipping into the locks of hair and pushing her closer to him. Eve moaned, and he deepened the kiss, slanting his head to the side to get a better access to her delectable lips. She felt even more perfect than the last time they had kissed, the chemistry sizzling into his bones, destroying his mind till he forgot how much he despised his wife. His wife, His... Something snapped within him, and he closed the remaining distance between them, guiding her body as though in an intimate tango, and turning her towards the wall, gently slamming her back into it. "Oh..." A gasp tore from her throat, her eyes fluttering shut as her
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Who Are You?
Eve woke up in the arms of her husband, her soft delectable behind pressed into his hardness, his big muscular body spooning her slender curvy frame. They redefined perfection in each other's arms. It had rained all night, and the blinds had been slid up. The glass walls were now coated with drippings of the rain, water trickling and making the glass thick. It was cold, but in Alessandro's arms, Eve was warm and even found her body heating up. And it didn't help that his breath was hot against hers, and his manhood was thickening the more seconds passed. "Morning, sunshine." Alessandro muttered in her ears with that rough voice, his lips leaving an imprint on her skin where he kissed her forehead. Hell, it was getting more torturous with each minute... "Hey, good morning." Eve turned to face him, her cheeks reddened by the blush which had tainted her skin. His eyes darted towards them, darkening slightly. Then he lowered his head and pecked her cheeks, his fingers sweeping th
The Billionaire's Substitute Wife Proposition
"Who are you?" The first thing in Eve's thought was to tell him the truth and get out of this web of lies she was thickening around herself. But the imagination of the repercussions hit her hard like a tornado. Alessandro Stark didn't give two rats' shit about the Wilsons, and if he found out that he had been deceived for months, there would be no mercy. Her parents and sister would be dealt with, including her, who had posed as an impersonator in a legally binding contract marriage. The thought of months of imprisonment slammed her lips shut. "What do you mean? Did you ever bother to get to know me before this sham of a marriage?" Eve found the voice to speak, keeping her tone neutral to betray none of the fear she was feeling. Alessandro's cold eyes regarded her, but she didn't break the contact, staring him right in the eyes. "You're just...different." He finally said, his voice calm and calculative. If he suspected anything, then it was over for her. Eve wrapped her a

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

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

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
