The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 9. Evil Woman
The cold night wind did not in the least cool Leo's feelings. Maya, lying weak and covered in blood, looked at him with eyes that were growing increasingly heavy."Are you okay?" Maya asked in a weak and stuttering whisper that only Leo could hear. Maya forced a smile as sweet as possible so that Leo would not be sad.Leo could only answer with panic and shaking his head. He couldn't believe Maya had helped him, even sacrificed her life for him. Why did this woman do something so brave for a stranger like him?Medical personnel quickly took Maya to the hospital. Leo accompanied the unfortunate woman. He knew he was a sinner. But this time, Leo believed in God and prayed to Him to save Maya.The commotion only clouded Leo's eyes and ears. He didn't care. His focus was only one thing. Maya had to survive no matter what."Doctor, please save her! No matter how much it costs and whatever it takes, Doc! Just as long as she survives," Leo said, half-conscious. The man's facial expression on

Meanwhile, at the hospital, an extremely undesirable situation occurred. Maya's condition suddenly became more concerning as she lost a lot of blood and needed a blood transfusion."I tried to stop Maya's bleeding by plugging her wound," Leo said incredulously, not believing what the doctor had told him."Sorry, we're just informing you of the actual situation," the doctor who replied, looking unhappy with Leo's current panic."Okay, so what's the problem, Doc?" Leo asked rudely, wiping his tired face. "You can just give her blood trans—""Oh my god! We're out of O negative blood supply!" one of the other doctors handling Maya exclaimed in panic. He had just received confirmation from the blood bank that the blood supply they needed was currently unavailable."What's your blood type?" Another doctor approached Leo and asked for his blood type. Unfortunately, Leo's blood type was not what they were hoping for."A," Leo replied weakly. "Negative."Without even mentioning his rhesus type

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Leo watched Maya's condition with concern as she still felt weak after the surgery. He was very grateful that Maya survived because of the help of the kids. It was truly a miracle."Leo! You haven't slept since last night! Your eyes are swollen and black..." Maya woke up and realized Leo was by her side. In her heart, Maya felt very grateful, even though her husband was not there, God sent a kind stranger named Leo to accompany her to the hospital. "Oh, my God! What about the payment later? Can you get the credit card that I left in the room?""Of course! Don't worry!" Leo answered to calm Maya. He reached out and put his arm around Maya's shoulder, then gently laid her back down on the uncomfortable hospital bed. "Don't worry about unimportant things!"Leo's face could not smile. His heart was crying. He licked his lips to suppress all the emotions that had settled and dominated his heart at this time. He wanted to take Maya away from Adam and Sabrina. He

That was Maya's third day in the hospital. Maya asked Leo not to accompany her all day. She told Leo to go back to the hotel and take care of himself.Maya felt extremely guilty. Leo's vacation was ruined because of what happened to her. If only she had not been careless, she would not have met the criminals.That day, Maya had to go back to the hotel. Her husband would be returning from his business meeting soon, and her dead phone would not help explain anything about her whereabouts in the hospital.That's why Maya quickly changed clothes and left the hospital room. She felt better and would ask to be discharged at that time and took care of all the administrative matters."I'm sorry, but in this hospital, we can't provide treatment until there's a guarantee of payment. So, your treatment costs have been covered, and you don't need to pay anymore," the administrative officer explained briefly to Maya without any intention of providing details."But who paid for this huge amount?"

After arriving at the apartment, Maya opened her suitcase and rearranged all the contents. She immediately took the dirty clothes to the kitchen area and put them all in the side-opening washing machine located near the pantry. Her wound was still sore, for sure, but she didn't want Adam to know and worry about it.Done with the laundry, Maya returned to the room and tidied up the remaining items. She put her marriage certificate back into the file holder. She then double-checked her handbag's contents and ensured everything was there. She didn't forget to take out the carcass of her phone wrapped in a zipper plastic and put it on the nightstand."Your phone is broken?" Adam asked Maya after he came out of the bathroom, about to take his casual clothes. The dark-haired man was slightly surprised by the coincidence that happened to them."Yes. Sorry! Have you had trouble reaching me?" Maya asked with a perfect act. Her face looked fine as if nothing bad had happened to her."Well, not

No plan ever goes without obstacles, as well as Adam's plans. Not all of them brought goodness to his life.Sabrina's presence in the office every day disturbed Adam's concentration. That's why Adam never wanted Sabrina to become his secretary. Moreover, Sabrina was not as good as Maya in her work.Adam had to work hard even to organize files and schedule meetings that sometimes overlapped. Something he wouldn't have to do if Maya was his secretary. However, Adam was determined to go through all of this for the sake of his love and inheritance. Isn't it necessary to work harder to achieve a goal?Adam once wanted to hire Maya again at the office so that his head would not explode from dealing with things that should not be his concern. However, considering that he had already agreed to this with Sabrina, it was impossible for her to accept it if Adam changed his mind. Once he looked to the right, Sabrina would not give him a chance to look to the left."Goodness! Two meetings at the s

It had been a month since Sabrina replaced Maya as the secretary. During that month, Adam worked very hard, but many of his tasks remained incomplete, no matter how much he tried his best.Now, in front of Adam, his father had a stern expression on his face, as if he was going to devour his only son alive. He was clearly dissatisfied with Adam's performance."What have you been doing at the office? I asked Maya, and she said you even had to work overtime. Why am I receiving such a poor performance report from you?" said Mr. Paul in a loud tone. He sat in Adam's chair with his legs crossed, letting his son stand there motionless and guilty without being able to adequately defend himself."I heard you often cancel appointments with clients suddenly. Three investors even canceled their intention to work with our company. All in just one month! And that's your extraordinary achievement," Mr. Paul scolded while slamming the desk. His eyes were glaringly red as if they were about to pop out

It had been ten days since Adam started his mission to manage his workload at the office and home. Sabrina didn't seem angry at Elena, the senior secretary who was assigned to handle more tasks and check her work again.Due to the overwhelming amount of work and higher targets than usual, Adam didn't have time to take care of himself. He often skipped meals. Even though Sabrina invited him to have lunch or dinner, Adam was only focused on his work. He didn't want to disappoint his father who allowed him to fix the problems in the office. If he failed, all his efforts so far would be in vain.On the other hand, Maya, who only had positive thoughts about Adam, felt sorry for her husband's poor condition. She observed the face of the man who was currently sleeping soundly beside her. Adam's body lately looked thinner. His face didn't look fresh at all. Like he hadn't been eating or resting enough."Are you too busy and not eating well, Honey?" whispered Maya softly. She then kissed her h

The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 39. Mom's Doppelganger (S1 End)
Five years have passed since Maya’s death. Now, the twins have grown into healthy and active children."Paul, Freya! Come down and finish your breakfast!" Adam shouted from below, calling his two children who could be heard being noisy upstairs as they changed clothes."Dad, Paul hid my doll! I wanted to take it with me when we pick up Uncle Leo at the airport!" Freya replied, her voice almost on the verge of tears. The little girl with dark wavy hair looked more and more like her mother as she grew older."Liar! You forgot where you put your ugly rabbit doll. Don't accuse me randomly!" Paul retorted in a high-pitched voice.Paul’s dark eyes sharply looked at his younger sister, who was smaller in size. He looked a lot like his father at that state. With a stronger and bigger body, he often teased Freya. Even though he was punished many times, teasing his twin was like a drug he would continue to do no matter what the consequences were.This kind of morning commotion in the Wilson man
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 38. The End of the Love Story
Sabrina was supposed to feel like the world and everything in it belonged to her. Maya had left. So had Mr. Paul. Adam was hers, completely. But reality seemed to be mocking her because she felt the opposite. She often remembered her own baby who hadn't survived when she was born prematurely at six months old. Physically, her baby had been in better condition than Maya's twins. She couldn't accept that fate. To make matters worse, why did she have to help take care of Maya's children?Sabrina, who used to hate Mr. Paul because he couldn't love Adam even though he loved his wife very much, has become very understanding of what Mr. Paul did. Not everyone is blessed with compassion like Maya. Sabrina and Mr. Paul are like that.Until this point, Sabrina might have been able to endure because Adam didn't demand that she love the twins. But what made Sabrina's situation difficult was Adam's inability to give her another child naturally.Sometime after Maya left, Adam's biological desires s
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 37. Adam's Secret
Adam's financial management was much better than when he was younger. When he received his salary, he immediately invested some of the money, set aside some for emergencies, and used the rest to cover his family's daily needs.However, Adam's firmness regarding finances was also one of the reasons for Sabrina's annoyance. She didn't agree with all the financial limitations that Adam imposed. She couldn't understand why she couldn't use the luxurious facilities that belonged to Adam's children. Didn't she also occasionally help Adam take care of the twins?"Adam, I just want to borrow this limo once to go to the party. Why won't you allow me?" Sabrina protested loudly. She had already prepared herself beautifully to go to the party and felt very frustrated because her efforts seemed futile. How could a woman with makeup like a queen go to a party in the ordinary family car that Adam drove to work every day? "Even if this belongs to the children, why can't I borrow it once or twice for
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 36. Good Daddy
That day was the day Adam had been waiting for. Paul and Freya came out of the NICU after having been treated there for ten weeks. Of course, Adam didn't forget to bring Sabrina along to pick up the twins.After all, Sabrina was going to be the stepmother to Paul and Freya. Although Sabrina had initially declined when Adam invited her to visit the kids in the hospital while they were still undergoing treatment, Adam didn't want to give up on bringing them closer. He wanted there to be a bond between mother and child that was established among them."Bree, I'll wait downstairs, okay!" Adam exclaimed nervously. He was really impatient to pick up Paul and Freya.Sabrina did not answer. She lazily applied makeup to her face, hoping that time would pass quickly and Adam would leave her out of boredom. "Sabrina, my love! If you don't come down soon, I'll come up and carry you down. Remember, we're also starting to move to the mansion today!" Adam shouted after waiting for Sabrina for thirty
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 35. Sabrina's Jealousy
A man stepped out of an Uber and stopped at a simple rented house in a suburban area. The man looked tidy, even though his clothes weren't too expensive. It was just a standard quality outfit purchased from a middle-class store. Anyone would never have guessed that the man who got off the ride-sharing service was the CEO of one of the big companies in the city.He had recently returned to his leadership position there after being fired a few months ago by the previous company owner. He could sit back in that position only by the grace of the Almighty. It was just because of His miracle that the man was still given a chance to once again hold an important role in the company that had thrown him away because of the scandal he played.The tired-looking young man slowly unlocked the gate of the rented house so as not to wake the surrounding neighbors. He also carefully opened the front door of the house so as not to wake his wife, who might already be asleep."Are you just coming home?" a
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 34. Father
Adam looked at the two little creatures in front of him with tears streaming down his face. So small and fragile. They needed tubes to help them survive."My children...." Adam whispered emotionally, making Leo feel that Maya's decision to hand over her babies to their biological father was the right choice.Blood is thicker than water. That's how it is. Adam loved his children because they were his own flesh and blood."She was so happy when she found out she was pregnant with twins. So was I. I even cursed how lucky you were," Leo recalled the moments when Maya cheered upon finding out the gender of her babies. "If only she was pregnant with a man who truly loved her, it would have been even more joyous. Do you know how Maya felt when she saw you and Sabrina happy when you found out the gender of your baby?"Adam swallowed hard. He looked up remembering all the mistreatment he had given Maya."However, her happiness disappeared when the doctor diagnosed her with severe pre-eclampsia
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 33. Blood is Thicker than Water
The small kitchen in a charming, athletic man's tiny apartment was now filled with the tempting aroma of butter. Not only did the smell of food make the mouth water, but there was also another equally enticing sight. The training pants, which he was wearing in the kitchen, hung too low on his waist, making any woman who looked at it unable to pass a day without feeling hot because of the beautiful sight.If there was a woman there, all five senses would be indulged with worldly pleasures because the sound of the man holding a pan and tongs would make the hearts of all women tremble while talking. Don't ask what sensation it would feel like if that melodious voice whispered in your ear; it was guaranteed that the world's angels would float even though there were no wings attached to their backs.However, at the same time, anyone who saw the man's sad face at the moment would surely feel sorry and wonder why that charming Adonis was upset. The answer was only one. He was worried about h
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 32. The Men
Adam's first punch hit Leo's face. However, Leo successfully blocked the second one."Adam! Stop it! Why did you suddenly hit Leo!" Maya yelled, trying to stop Adam's rage.Adam didn't care. He still tried to attack Leo. Meanwhile, Leo, who could easily defeat his opponent, was busy blocking and defending himself from Adam's attacks. He didn't have the heart to hit Adam because Maya was standing next to him."Hey! Why are you acting like this? Remember, we're in a hospital!" whispered Leo softly but firmly."What did you do to Sabrina, huh? A witness said that my wife fell after a big blonde guy scared her!" Adam replied angrily. "Who else could it be if not you!"Leo frowned. He was confused by Adam's question. He did have some unfriendly chat with Sabrina, but was it really that bad to put her in a critical condition?"It's you! You must have told Leo to scare Sabrina, right? You don't want to see my family happy, do you?" Adam accused Maya now. Adam's eyes, blinded by anger and hat
The Billionaire's Wife and the Mistress 31. Emergency
Sabrina walked slowly along the corridor, feeling a pain in her stomach. She didn't expect that today's activity would exhaust her. After all, walking two kilometers from her apartment to the hospital was not an easy task for a pregnant woman like her.The gentle ringtone of her phone startled Sabrina. She then answered the call from her husband. Sabrina was very anxious. She was afraid that Adam had already come home earlier and found their apartment empty."Sabrina, where are you?" Adam asked with a worried tone."I...I went out for a moment. My pregnancy supplements ran out," Sabrina answered, slightly stuttering because she didn't ask Adam's permission to meet Maya today. If her husband knew, he would surely oppose her frontal action. After all, Adam would see it as begging Maya to fix their financial situation."Where are you? I'll come to pick you up!" Adam sounded really concerned that his wife was out alone. He didn't want anything to happen to Sabrina and their baby. The last
