The Ruthless Billionaire and His Sassy Surrogate Chapter 81- The Brawling Brutes
“You have got some nerves coming here.” Bryan’s gaze held some hurt and fierceness behind it.He crossed his arms and glared at Killian, “Get out of here before it is too late.” He added.Killian stepped through the doorway and stood right next to Penelope who was still shocked at seeing him.How did he get her address? She wondered.“I am here for Ms. Winters.” Killian declared, matching the staring intensity with Bryan.“Not if you go through me first.” Bryan gritted, stepping up to Killian.Penelope watched the scene between them helplessly. The two men matched in heights but Bryan was leaner due to his recent health battles.“She is an adult. Let her make the decision.” Killian retorted.“She is my baby sister. I am her guardian.” Bryan countered, pointing towards her.“Really?” Killian acted incredulous. “You could have fooled me. Thought she was your guardian.”Bryan hissed and balled his fist, ready to strike.“No… We are not doing this.” She quickly interrupted them before t

Killian squeezed his face in pain.“Don’t be a baby.” Penelope chided. She cautiously dabbed the mentholated liquid on his wounds. The action made him wince.“Are you serious right now?” Penelope glared at him.Despite her stern warning, she stifled a laugh. Who would have thought the big boss man would wince when it came to pain?Killian fixated his gaze on her as she worked on her face. The way her lashes fluttered softly, how her lips were parted as she blew on his wound. His hand caught the hair that strayed to cover her face on instinct.The action caused both of them to freeze.He pulled the hair behind her ear and stared at her. He longed to crashed his lips on hers so he leaned in to fulfil his desire.Right then, the door was pushed open, revealing Megan. The two moved away from each other in a lightning speed.“I can’t believe you proposed to that bitch.” She hadn’t seen Penelope so she blurted her disdain unaware of her presence in the room yet.“Uhm… That is my cue.” Penel

Angela turned around to see Vivian Thompson.“Vivian… Why are you making a spectacle of yourself?” Angela whispered between them.Vivian scoffed, “A spectacle? What are you doing with her? You used to be my friend and my daughter’s mother-in-law. Now, you are supporting this gold digger?”Penelope chose not to pay attention to her. She had enough drama going on in her life to last her a lifetime already. It didn’t interest her to add to it.“How could you?” Vivian continued and broke into wails, drawing the sympathy of the onlookers.Angela stared at the crowd that gathered near, “What is with the theatrics? What do you want?” She spoke calmly. “Give her the latest and most expensive Louis Vuitton bag here.” Angela ordered one of the assistants.“My daughter did nothing but love your son till her grave.” Vivian continued. Angela watched her with suspicion.The act was unusual of Vivian. She had known Vivian to be a crowd pleaser while she adorned a completely different persona behind

Killian threw his PJ on and while Penelope threw her clothes back on without her panties.Her hair looked wild- a testament of their passionate night.

We are here for Ms. Winters.”Penelope blinked in confusion, “What? Why?” She asked, turning to look at Killian.“We are investigating the death of Drew Portman.” Detective Kayden explained. “We just need you for clarification at the precinct.”Penelope drew a painful gasp, “D-drew is d-dead?” Her breath caught in her throat. Her legs almost gave out if n

Francine approached her studio building after she had lunch. "Francine!" A voice called just as she was about to enter her building. She turned around and rolled her eyes at the sight before her.

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? 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
