The Billionaire's Surrogate Wife Chapter 54
Samuel appeared quite busy finishing some tasks before heading to a meeting outside the office. After a while, there was a knock on the door, followed by Axton entering with a large folder that he wanted to show to his boss."Excuse me, sir. Sorry to disturb you again," Axton said."Yeah, what's up, Axton?" Samuel responded without turning away from the papers he had been reading."These are the copies of the marriage agreement you made. They were returned by the notary yesterday afternoon and officially canceled. So, at this moment, your marriage to Mrs. Arianna is just like any other regular marriage. There's no more binding agreement as in the beginning."This time, Samuel raised his face, shifting his focus from the stack of papers to his assistant standing in front of his desk."Thank you very much for the help and the new information you just provided. I'll take the file for now. After this, I'll destroy it," Samuel said while accepting the folder from Axton and placing it on th

"Don't beat around the bush. Quickly tell me what you want to say and what plans you have," Valerie demanded.After bumping into one of the men who was Samuel's cousin in front of the elevator, Valerie finally agreed to go to a nearby coffee shop, not far from the Pacific Palace building. Once they arrived, they immediately took seats in a corner of the room and began discussing important plans that might be executed soon."Relax, Valerie. Don't you miss me at all? Or maybe you want to order some drinks first?" the man offered, trying to be friendly.Valerie sighed. She wasn't particularly interested in dealing with the man in front of her."No need to fish for compliments. Our relationship is just for fun," Valerie replied curtly. It was her natural demeanor. "Enough, let's get straight to the point. If there's nothing to talk about, I might as well leave."The man in front of Valerie chuckled, leaned back in his chair, then spoke casually."I'm sure you're extremely disappointed abo

Arianna observed closely as Samuel presented with one of his clients. Despite frequently witnessing her husband engaging in serious conversations like this, for some reason, Arianna couldn't hide her admiration. When he was serious like now, Samuel's handsomeness and charisma seemed to increase by 100%. Actually, her husband had always been handsome. But, for the first time, she truly realized and enjoyed his handsomeness up close."So, how about it? Is Marigold willing to collaborate with Pacific?" Samuel asked at the end of his presentation.Sandara Muller, the Singaporean female client, smiled. She glanced at her assistant or perhaps her team members. They exchanged signals, then turned back to look at Samuel while extending her hand for a handshake."Both of us agree with the offer that Pacific just outlined. If this condotel project is promising, there's no reason we can't expand its scope to Singapore.""With pleasure," replied Samuel. "Pacific is ready to invade anytime. Everyt

While continuing to observe Samuel's movements, Arianna's ears felt hot listening to all the information Randy shared. There was a bit of annoyance, or rather, quite a lot of it. It seemed that this feeling of irritation filled Arianna's chest cavity. She felt the urge to approach her husband and pull him home immediately.However, not wanting to create a scene and also maintaining composure, Arianna chose to remain silent. And her silence continued until they reached home. Samuel, who didn't understand, was puzzled all the way home. Even when they were already in the bedroom, Arianna still kept silent."Why are you acting like this? I noticed you've been quiet since the hotel. I tried to talk on the way, but you didn't respond as usual," Samuel said again.Arianna just shook her head. Instead of answering, she focused on choosing sleepwear from the wardrobe. She put it on quickly and then walked towards the bed to approach Samuel."Did I do something wrong to you? Or did I do somethi

In this morning, according to the agreement, it was Samuel's turn to prepare breakfast. Spaghetti Carbonara paired with warm milk was the specialty that he served for his wife to enjoy.While taking bites of his food, Samuel continued to smile so broadly. Whatever was on his mind, it caught Arianna's attention, prompting her to directly question her husband."Why are you smiling like that without any clear reason?""I'm German, you're French. I've noticed, you're getting sweeter."Arianna sighed lazily. For God's sake, if she hadn't married Samuel, she might never have known that his personality was so different from his appearance. His face was arrogant, but his heart was like a Hello Kitty. Even his habit of uttering strange sentences sometimes left Arianna stunned. Yes, like this morning, for example."Stop being unclear. It's still morning, Samuel. Don't start," Arianna said while enjoying her food."I'm serious, dear. It's okay if my behavior is unclear. But my love for you is de

Arianna nodded, processing what Samuel had just explained. It turned out to be the intricate family lineage of the renowned Walters family. As a wealthy tycoon originally from Singapore, Arianna acknowledged that Samuel's grandfather had successfully educated all his descendants, whether sons, daughters, or grandchildren, to achieve success in their respective fields."That's why, Arianna, you're really lucky to be part of this family," Sandara continued. "Not everyone can pass the selection to become a potential daughter-in-law.""Because of this, I'm having trouble finding a partner," Randy interjected. He spoke up again after staying silent for a while."What kind of trouble? Aren't you dating a lot? Changing partners too. That's why the nickname 'the one-armed crocodile' suits you so perfectly," Samuel retorted.Randy sighed deeply. It had to be admitted, among all the Walters descendants, he was known for frequently changing partners. But still, none of them he managed to bring t

A short while after reading the news his assistant handed him, Samuel's phone incessantly rang. He wasn't sure who was calling him at that moment.Turning to Randy and Axton, who were still in his office, the three of them seemed to be brainstorming, thinking carefully and cautiously. They certainly wanted to determine what steps to take, considering that the news would undoubtedly cause a significant commotion."Axton, please call Arianna and ask her to join us here right away."Axton promptly followed Samuel's instructions. In just a minute, Arianna was standing in front of Samuel."What's going on, Sir?" Arianna asked curiously. Seeing the tense expressions on the faces of the three men around her, Arianna wondered what was really happening."There's bad news. I'm sure this is not good for us and the company."Arianna's eyebrows furrowed. Without needing an invitation, she pulled a chair and took a seat."What's actually happening?"Randy, standing right next to Arianna, reached fo

From behind the blanket, Rama could be seen smiling broadly as he read the string of news that had just been released today. After reaching an agreement and signing the agreement, he immediately mobilized his subordinates to spread the news about the contract marriage scandal between Samuel and Arianna.The bait was successfully thrown into the crowd. And now, he just had to wait to see which fish would take the bait and devour it completely."What are you smiling about?" Valerie asked, just waking up from sleep. Still in a state of innocence, she looked affectionate. Wrapping her arms around Rama's waist, her face nuzzled into the nape of his neck."I'm waiting for the excitement that will happen today.""Have you spread the news?"Rama nodded."Yes. All online news portals are probably broadcasting Samuel's marriage scandal right now."Valerie smiled too, satisfied that her plan and Rama's efforts were successful. She was now assured of receiving a substantial amount of money from h

During Arianna's first delivery, Arabella was visibly excited, eagerly awaiting and welcoming the birth of her grandchild. This time, however, Darwin and Randy were the ones filled with enthusiasm over the birth of Samuel and Arianna's twin babies. It all started with Samuel assigning his two cousins the task of naming their newly born son and daughter. Samuel and Arianna were indeed grateful because their children were born as twins and even had matching genders. "So, have you got the names for the babies yet?" Samuel asked. At the moment, both cousins along with other family members were gathered in the hospital room. Even Rama was present at the hospital. He happened to have a task that brought him to Indonesia for a few days. Upon hearing from Arabella that Arianna had just given birth, he hurriedly visited with his mother. After being given a few hours to think, Randy, who was sitting, immediately looked up. Standing up, he then approached Samuel. "I've got one, not sure abo

In the car on the way to somewhere, Samuel laughed loudly. He chuckled to himself after listening to his wife's story, who intended to retaliate against Randy. Samuel didn't object at all. He thought his cousin needed to be taught a lesson once in a while to learn his lesson. "I can't imagine how annoyed Randy's face must be, having to treat and unwillingly pay for the orders I've already placed," Arianna exclaimed, continuing to laugh. "You're absolutely right." "Let it be! He brought it on himself by being mischievous. Besides, it's nothing compared to what he's done to me countless times. It's also a good deed. We'll donate the food to the orphanage," Arianna replied without feeling any remorse. Then she shifted the topic by asking Samuel something else. "By the way, where are you taking me? I've been wondering for a while now." Samuel glanced briefly, smiling as he answered his wife's curiosity. "I'm planning to surprise you," he said, keeping his focus on the road ahead. "A

Upon realizing she had been blatantly deceived by Randy, the next day Arianna invited Samuel's cousin to have lunch together. With the intention of seeking direct clarification and giving a lengthy lecture on what he had done to her. That's why, after dropping Kalvin off at Arabella's house, Arianna hurried to her husband's office first. Upon arrival, she chose to wait for a moment in Samuel's room because he was currently attending a meeting with other Pacific executives. "After a more in-depth evaluation, there are no longer any obstacles found in this project. I think, going forward, we just need to monitor the progress of the tower construction and then discuss it again. Randy seemed serious as he presented and led the meeting today. While Samuel, from his seat, observed. Occasionally noting the important points conveyed by his cousin. "From our side, there are no issues or matters that need clarification at all, Mr. Randy," replied Agatha, who was attending the meeting today.

Since the unclear argument that happened last night, this morning Arianna continued her silent treatment. Despite still serving and even preparing breakfast for her husband, she did everything in silence. As a result, Samuel, unable to stand being ignored any longer, immediately confronted her. Seeking to ascertain what was really going on with his wife. "Honey..." called out Samuel. His usually firm voice sounded gentle this morning. Yet deep down, he was also frustrated at being ignored by his wife for too long. "Are you tired of being angry and ignoring me all the time? If I've done something wrong, I genuinely apologize," pleaded the man. He continued to gaze intently at Arianna, who was busy pouring milk into her glass. Today, Samuel didn't have to work as it coincided with a holiday. He had plans to take his wife out. However, seeing Arianna still angry since last night, Samuel was puzzled on how to persuade her. "I'm not angry," replied Arianna. Meeting his gaze, she spoke

Arianna knew that her relationship with Samuel had started accidentally. It began with a plan to secure a big tender while deceiving Arabella, and they agreed to a contractual marriage. Over time, love grew between them. Samuel was even the first person to declare his love for the woman he had married. They both promised to take their marriage seriously, to care for each other, to support and complement each other, to stay together faithfully until the end of their lives. Seeing Samuel's sincerity, love, and affection over the years, Arianna doubted that her husband was up to something behind her back. However, after noticing several oddities and Samuel's increasingly strange behavior, Arianna decided to find out what was really going on. Arianna had every reason to be suspicious. Samuel's recent movements only added to her concerns. Like detectives in movies, Arianna sought Randy's help to tail her husband, who was heading somewhere unknown. From the office, they cautiously follow

"If you look at it, land preparation and access roads are not a problem anymore. I'm optimistic that this project can be completed within a maximum period of 2 years," Samuel said, currently discussing in the meeting room with Randy and Agatha. They were indeed in a discussion, talking about the apartments and shopping center that would soon be built. All three of them looked serious, exchanging ideas to be evaluated later. Agatha, starting to feel comfortable at Pasific, didn't miss a chance to hear how Samuel presented his ideas briefly. Agatha had to admit, her ex-boyfriend was very credible in carrying out his tasks and responsibilities. Agatha was even impressed by Samuel's demeanor, always serious in giving explanations. "When the towers here are completed, the next step will be the groundbreaking for the tower in Singapore, right?" Agatha asked to confirm. "Yes, that's correct," Samuel nodded. "That means our team will take turns staying in Singapore." Agatha smiled widely

Arianna watched her husband carefully as he enjoyed his breakfast. Since last night, she couldn't stop thinking. Where did Samuel go, actually? He claimed to be going out and wanted to meet Randy to discuss something. But, when directly asked, Randy himself didn't seem to know anything about it. He even insisted that he was at home because he had just returned from the office. So, did Samuel lie to her? But why? Why did her husband have to lie like that? Because of what happened last night, negative thoughts immediately flooded her mind. Full of questions, she pondered what Samuel was hiding because his behavior had been very strange lately. "Sweetheart," Arianna spoke up after taking a sip of warm milk from the glass she held. "Yes, what is it, honey?" Samuel replied, smiling at Arianna and waiting for her to speak. "Is there anything you want to tell me or talk about?" she asked cautiously, her words inviting questions in Samuel's mind. "Talk? About what?" he asked, puzzled by

"Finally, you're back here, Mrs. Agatha. Mr. Samuel and I hope that for the next two months, you'll be comfortable here in Indonesia and the Pacific," Randy warmly greeted Agatha as she returned to Indonesia. While discussing project schedules, he occasionally threw jokes to lighten the atmosphere. "Thank you very much for the warm welcome, Mr. Randy and Mr. Samuel. I'm truly delighted to be back here and working on projects with great people like both of you," replied Agatha with a smile. Her gaze didn't stray from the figure of the man in the gray suit, who was none other than Samuel. He was the one she wanted to meet at the company. Samuel reciprocated with an equally friendly smile. After Randy, it was his turn to speak. "I hope that during the project execution and supervision process, there won't be any significant obstacles or difficulties. Even if there are any problems or something that needs consultation later on, don't hesitate to ask for help from me, Mr. Randy, or any
The Billionaire's Surrogate Wife Chapter 99
Entering the eighth month of pregnancy, Arianna's belly was noticeably large. Fortunately, in this final trimester, she still had the freedom to engage in many activities. Despite feeling tired more quickly, she still enjoyed everything she did. Besides, it would be boring to just sit around or spend a lot of time watching TV and lounging in the room as Samuel often suggested."I think you should just stay home and enjoy some me-time. Whether it's watching Korean dramas, relaxing while snacking, or inviting someone over. Ask Chacha or Madam Laila to accompany you for a chat rather than going out alone," her husband often said.Arianna had heard this sentence many times from her husband's mouth. Somehow, in this second pregnancy, Samuel's worries were evident from the beginning."If I stay at home all the time, I'll get bored, Sam. I want to go to the office or go out. Spend time outside," Arianna replied.
