The Ruthless Billionaire and His Sassy Surrogate Chapter 008
Penny’s face was flushed from the whole dancing. He had taken off his suit with only his dress shirt on. The sleeves of his shirt had been rolled up, exposing his forearm. He looked so handsome under the bright light. Geez, Penny. The alcohol is doing a number on you if you are getting attracted to Mr. King. But who isn’t attracted to him? Then, she noticed him saying something. “What?” The music was too loud so she thought she heard Mr. King wrong. Penny heard him grunt. “Come.” He ordered. Her legs started moving and followed him to where the music was quiet. The restroom wasn’t farther from where they stood. “What were you doing here?” Killian demanded. “C-came to have fun.” Penny answered with a pout after stumbling over her words. “Throwing yourself at random men is fun?” He asked, scoffing at her. “Would you prefer if I threw myself at you instead?” Penny inquired, winking lazily at him. Killian stared at her with a look of confusion etched on his face. “You didn’t read

Penny was sleeping when her phone started ringing violently. She leapt out of her bed to shut down the annoying device but the caller ID made her pause.Killian King?When did he save his contact on my phone? “Hello?” She gingerly put the phone to her ear.“It’s Monday.” His deep voice came on.Penny blinked unable to connect the dots.Killian was quiet for a couple of seconds, “Don’t tell me you forgot about the appointment.”She rushed over to the bathroom with the phone in between her ear and shoulder. “No. Not at all.”“Tell me where you live. I will send my driver to get you.” Killian demanded.She was pressing some toothpaste on her brush. “I will meet you at the hospital. Just tell me where.”Seeing that she would be stubborn, he gave her the address of the hospital. She stiffened at the address.That is the same hospital my brother was admitted.That posed some major problem for her. She proceeded to shower in lightning speed and threw on a big shirt with a pair of cargo pant

Penelope could feel her being carried but the blow to her head made her unable to open her eyes. A familiar woody scent swarmed her nostrils.Had he come to save her? She lost unconsciousness again, knowing that she was in safe hands.***“When will she wake up?” Killian asked, staring steely at the doctor.“S-soon.” The doctor sputtered, unable to hold Killian’s gaze.The door opened to reveal a nurse, “Dr. Mace! You are needed in the OR.” The doctor scurried out of the room to follow the nurse.He felt relieved to be out of the same room with Killian.Killian stared at Penelope’s body on the bed. Had he gone too far? He ran his right hand through his hair before pulling out his phone to text a number.“Find him.”***Two days later…Penelope’s eyes fluttered open slowly. She took in her surroundings. The walls were white and the light was blindly. The intensity made her groan as she squinted her eyes.“Light. The light.” She whispered.Not a second later, the light was turned off.

“Penny! Where have you been?” Bryan asked sternly as soon as Penelope stepped through the doorway.Penelope stopped in her tracks. She had quickly rushed over to check up on him before following Ms. Flores to Killian’s manor. Ms. Flores insisted on going with her but she pleaded with her to stay outside.“Uh… I had some work to do.” She responded with a smile sheepishly.Technically, it wasn’t a lie.His gaze travelled from her head to toe. She had worn a beanie over her head so she wouldn’t answer his barrel of questions.“What are you wearing?” Bryan asked. The clothes were totally not my style. I preferred baggy and casual clothes. Not the black fitted jumpsuit with a pair of heels. She only dressed exotic to work.God forbade he saw the new iPhone 15 bought for her.“I borrowed it from a friend.” Penny lied.He definitely didn’t buy it but said nothing. She spent some minutes with him before she got ready to leave. “Bryan. Please, don’t give up hope. You will be out of here soon.

Killian informed his pilot of sudden need to fly to Europe. Van had resumed to his position from Max so he drove him to his port. “Good to have you back, Van.” Killian welcomed. He kept up the news and updates from his team regarding the fire outbreak in one of his factories overseas. “Good to be back, boss.” Van greeted back. Van was an older and more experienced driver. Right from when he went to high school, he had been Killian’s driver and sometimes confidant. “I’ll appreciate a heads up next time regarding the rookie.” Killian said lowly. Van bit his lips tightly. He just wanted to help the poor bloke. “I got him in because he needed help with some money. I am sorry, Mr. King.” He explained. “Run it by me next time.” Killian instructed. While Killian gave him the free reign in employing the drivers and some household staffs, Killian had the supreme authority. “Roger that, boss!” He acquiesced. They arrive at his port with the pilot waiting for him. Killian wasn’t thrille

Killian couldn’t believe the nerve of Penelope when he found her in the forbidden room. He had engraved it into everyone’s memory never to enter her room.“K-Killi-” Penelope stammered seeing how he marched towards her with intent. He grabbed her by the arm roughly and dragged her out of the room.His nails dug into her flesh, making her yelp in pain. “You are hurting me, Killian!” She shouted.Hailey and Ms. B could only watch the scene unfold before them as they were peeping through a window.Killian was deaf to her cries of pain. “WHY DID YOU GO IN THERE?!” He roared as he yanked the fur coat off Penelope without mining her tangled elbow in it.For the first time, Penelope was scared of him, especially with the incensed gaze. “P-please.” She pleaded.“THAT ROOM IS FORBIDDEN.” He growled in her ears making close her eyes and break into sobs. No one had been in the room since his wife’s death. Not even Killian.He couldn’t bear the thought of her death. So, he kept the room intact wi
The Ruthless Billionaire and His Sassy Surrogate Chapter 0014: Where is Ms. Winters?
It had been excruciating 48 hours for Killian.“S-sir! W-w can’t find her.” One of the men on his security team reported the bad news while catching the beads of sweat that had formed on his forehead.Killian calmly stood up from his chair in the study. “You can’t find her?” He asked, chuckling darkly.The man trembled under his ferocious glare. Others could only drop their heads in shame.He turned around and grabbed the vase on his table and lunged it in his direction. The man held his ear in pain as the vase grazed him. “You can’t fucking find her?! A measly little woman in San Francisco?”“You get paid for NOTHING!” He roared. “GET OUT! NOW! AND, DON’T RETURN UNTIL YOU FIND HER!”They all fleeted out in fear. Freddy who had been watching his childhood friend finally spoke.“She will be found.” He said, trying to calm him down.“But when? How could she just disappear without a trace?” Killian wondered and he ran his hand through his already dishevelled hair. “Where is Ms. Winters?”

His eyes looked like they had seen a ghost. He was right. Everything he held dearly would soon become a ghost of his imagination. "T-thank you all for spending today with this old man." He concluded his speech and left the center stage. People began laughing, smiling and toasting to him. A clip played in the background for everyone to see. It was a collage of photos with music attached to it. Stanley smiled so much, his cheeks burned. Slowly, the pictures turned from pictures of his to pictures of the bruises he afflicted on Lola. Everyone gasped at the gory pictures, covering their mouths at the sheer horror of those images. Soon after, names from the black lists were called. Several funds of the government that was diverted. Stanley gasped, shaking his head disbelievingly. "No! None of this is true." He tried to plead with his guests who had adored him some minutes ago, now turned their backs on him.No one listened.

"What have we got?" Killian asked.Boyles held a cigar in between his lips as he took a deep long drag."A lot. Depends on where you want us start." He spoke after putting the smoke in the air. His feet casually crossed over each other on her work desk. She had a study in a makeshift basement.It was no news that Boyles knew about where she was, even though she never revealed where she was writing from in any of her letters.He was the one that anonymously tipped Killian about her whereabouts. They knew because he confessed the minute he set foot into her household, right before plumping into the chair in front of her desk.He was always an enigma thag no one could decipher."His offshore accounts. We must look into it. Several events had been hosted, especially art works which we know he couldn't give the middle finger about. Most of them are usually sent to another location." Killian inquired, looking at the spread papers and files before him."I will have my men on it. I got you an

Penelope woke up to the light streaming down softly on her face. She groaned a little due to the sudden intrusion on her vision she opens her eyes.She adjusted her position and met a wall behind her. Her hand darted to the back to feign the object."Careful, love. Unless you want to stir him awake for another round. I don't mind, though." His voice vibrated against her neck, turning on very early in the morning.She bit her lips and retracted her hand. As tempting as his offer was, she couldn't even summon the strength. The previous night was a tryst that left her moaning her lungs out and causing her to be sore down there.If she somehow made it out of her bed, she would claim victory. The night was sweet, slow and rough. Everything she wanted and desired. She clamper he thighs shut while reminiscing."Talk to me. What are you thinking about?"

Anything to see the joy on their faces, he was willing and ready to do it.Sometime in the evening after having lunch with the kids, Max asked, “Okay, Dad. Why are you sulking? Don’t you like spending time with us?” Max inquired, dumping his fries on the plate and meeting his gaze.He turned away from the view of the buzzling locals outside the window, “Of course, I want to spend all the time I can get with you.” He spoke defensively.The two arched a brow, “Then, why are you sulking?” Max asked again.“I am not sulking.” He answered with a scowl on his face.Max and Fran leaned back at the same time, seemingly choreographed before concluding. “Sulking!”Killian let out a sigh.“Come on. Talk to us.” Fran spoke this time. She pushed her food away, grabbed the napkin to clean her hands and crossed her arms, expectantly.Max leaned back into his seat, waiting as we

The Ruthless Billionaire and His Sassy Surrogate Chapter 140- About Us
She looked down at their joined hands and looked back up at Killian. “One step at a time, remember?” She spoke and pulled her hand out of his. “The children are far more important right now.” She added and stood up from the couch. “Goodnight, Killian.” She whispered the last part.“Goodnight, Penelope.” He spoke in a low voice, feeling dejected at her rejection. Although, he half expected it but it didn’t lessen the ache he felt in his heart. He grabbed the comforter nearby and used it to cover himself after taking minimal clothing pieces off. That had been his bed for the past few days.The thought made him chuckle. How could a billionaire squeeze his length into a couch for days? Ms. Flores would have aneurysms if she ever saw him in that uncomfortable position. His bed was much more comfortable than the hard couch. He wondered why Penelope didn’t buy a more comfortable one when she easily could.Think of this as a means to an end, he tried to comfort himself internally.Just when h
