Remember not to wander off and stay where I instruct you to stay.” Her mother said sternly.Penelope furrowed her eyebrows, wondering why her mother looked serious and a little fearful. She watched her mother’s hands tremble.Just as she summoned the courage to ask her mother, a cab pulled over. The address was given to the driver.Penelope became engrossed with the views upstate. She had never been their because they lived in the crass part of the city. Up state smelt peaceful but tainted.“I am coming, Stanley.” Penelope averted her gaze from the view and turned to look at her mother. She was speaking on a phone she had never seen before. They could hardly pay the phone bills at home, let alone afford an expensive device like the one her mother held.The cab arrived at the b

His gaze travelled up and down her form, His movement looked uncoordinated.“Stanley? Are you drunk?” Evelyn asked with disgust. He peered into the room behind him to see some bottles on the floor. She shook her head in utter disappointment.Stanley belched.

Let’s have some fun!”He motioned for her to come to him. But Evelyn had another mission in mind. She left him at the door and returned to the living area.Stanley followed her to the living area. With each step he took, he unbuttoned his shirt and disposed it in the hallway.“Baby, d-don’t run away from me.” Stanley slurred.

“Mommy…” Penelope groaned.“Mommy.” She repeated.“Hey, Penelope.” Penelope heard a voice whisper coolly to her. She had looked forward to getting ice cream with her mother but she suddenly disappeared.Her eyes brimmed with tears. A drop slip down her face as she opened her eyes. She blinked back the tears, to hold herself from breaking down. Her eyes took in the room she was in.The room looked familiar. She blinked several times and looked beside her. She saw Killian staring her worriedly. His hair stuck everywhere plus his eyes had heavy bags.“Are you okay?” He asked in a whisper and brushed her hair back.“Where am I?” She asked curiously.“We are back home.” Killian answered. “This is my room.” He explained.“Ahh…” She uttered.“What happened? Why did we leave Singapore?” She asked. Her memories sudden took a vacation.Killian studied her, wondering if she can’t recollect anything. “You threw up and fainted right after.

“Answer the damn phone.” Francine yelled at her phone. She paced impatiently in her studio. Arrays of art works surrounded her. She had been calling her grandfather. But he refused to answer her all and instead, let it go to the voicemail. “Shit!” She cursed out. “Fine, grandpa dearest. If you won’t come to me, I have no problem coming to you.” She seethed and grabbed her keys from her purse. She pressed the car key and her Yellow Ferrari beamed. It had been a present two years ago from her grandfather for her 23rd birthday. She sat behind the wheel and sped down the streets and straight to her grandfather’s mansion. She revved the engine with fury when she arrived at the gate. “Let me the fuck in right now!” She shouted at them. The security stationed at the gate stayed in front of the gate. “Ma’am, you are not cleared in.” “Are you fucking kidding me?” Francine yelled, making them grimace. They stared at each other. Young Ms. Pollen had a temper that rivalled her grandfather

“Hey… Are you okay?” Penelope asked as soon as she note of the glum look on Francine’s face.Francine passed her a weak smile. “I should be asking you that. You scared the shit out of me, Penny.” She said and pulled her into a hug.Francine needed the hug more. Penelope sensed that and pulled her in tighter. “I am fine now.” Penelope assured her.Francine pulled back a little and stared at her sternly, “You had better be. Because you are stuck with me till eternity.” She said, making the two of them burst into a fit of laughter. Francine took a seat right next to her on the bed.Some minutes later, Killian walked into the room. “I am going to work. Ms. B will be here to assist you with anything. Ms. Flores will schedule an appointment for you tomorrow.”Penelope acknowledged his words and gave a nod. “Uhm… I need to see my brother. Would love to see him during the day.”Killian furrowed his eyebrows worriedly. Her physical health was important to him but he couldn’t restrict her from
The Ruthless Billionaire and His Sassy Surrogate Chapter 46- Dawn of the day
Killian sat behind his desk at the office while Ms. Flores briefed him about his appointments for the day. Ms. Flores briefed him on his itinery for the day but cut her off. "The arrested employee, how is his family? Is his son recuperating?” Ms. Flores arched her eyebrow at Killian’s questions. Since when did he start worrying about someone else but himself? “Yes, Mr. King.” She answered, nonetheless. He gave a nod, “Hmmm…. Great. Provide his wife and son with whatever they need” He continued, “Keep your eyes on them as well. Who knows? The guy we are looking might show up.” “On it, Mr. King.” Ms. Flores tapped the screen of her tablet to send the orders to the appropriate quarters. “Do you need me for anything else, sir?” She inquired. “Yes.” He said. He grabbed a stack of papers and extended them to her. “I want you to send a mail to the heads of departments regarding a performance assessment meeting. That will be all.” She took that a cue for her dismissal so she turned to l

“Knock Knock” Penelope said enthusiastically while peering through the little crack in the door. Bryan had just left the bathroom, intent on walking back to his bed. “Penny!” His eyes lit up at the sight of his baby sister. He sped up to her and lifted her in an embrace. Penelope was in hysterics. She burst into a fit of laughter. “What is with the cover? I want to see your face.” He set her down on the floor gently. A frown formed on his face. Penelope had chosen to use a nose cover to prevent her from throwing up. It was her first time being pregnant so she was still figuring out what her body wanted. Reluctantly, she removed the nose cover, hoping she didn’t have to find the nearest toilet sit bowl. Bryan gasped, “Are you sick?” He inquired. Penelope stiffened. Yes, she was sick but her brother would severe her head if he knew why. But how did he find out so fast? “You look so pale.” Penelope scratched her head, trying to find an excuse. “It is just a flu I caught. Hence, the

Penelope walked slowly in direction of the sound. She used her feet to gently push a stool to the side and walked around a counter to see Francine seated on the floor while hugging her knees to her chest. Her head was laying on her knees.Penelope lowered her nose mask. “Francine?” She called, her voice barely above a whisper. She watched Francine’s body wracked in sobs. Her heart pulled towards her so she crossed the gap between them and joined her on the floor.“Heyy… Why are you crying?” She asked gently.Francine looked up. Her smoky-eye makeup had been smudged with the remnant streaking down her face.“It .is. all. gone.” Each word made her sob harder into Penelope’s shoulder.Penelope furrowed her eyebrows, looking puzzled. “What is all gone?” She inquired.Francine wailed into her harder. The action prompted her to stop asking questions. She had noticed that the more she probed, the harder she cried. Instead, she rubbed her hand in an upward and downward movement on her back to

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.

"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?

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
