The Substitute Billionaire Wife 101. Touch me
Katie and Nora walked into the cafeteria, joining the line for lunch. The hum of chatter and the clatter of trays filled the air, creating a familiar background noise. Katie tried to focus on the menu, but her mind wandered, replaying the events of the past few days. As they reached the front of the line, Katie grabbed her tray and loaded it with food. Just as she looked up, she saw Andrew across the room. The shock of seeing him again made her trip, and she fell forward, her tray of food flying through the air and landing squarely on Andrew.Andrew's face turned red with anger. "Are you blind? Can't you see where you're going?" he shouted, his voice echoing through the cafeteria. "You're so stupid. I can't believe I even apologized to you. People like you don’t belong in high school—you belong in prison."He raised his hand, and for a moment, it looked like he was going to hit her. The entire cafeteria gasped in unison, the sound hanging in the air like a heavy cloud. Andrew froze,

The board meeting was in full swing, and the atmosphere was tense with anticipation. Executives and stakeholders sat around a long table, murmuring among themselves. The chairman, an imposing figure with silver hair and a commanding presence, stood up and called for attention."Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here today. I have an important announcement to make. After much consideration, I have decided that we should partner with the Alfred family, especially since they are no longer associated with the Rojas Alvaro family."There was a murmur of surprise and interest around the table. Lilian, sitting next to her father, felt her heart sink. She glanced at Mr. Alfred, who seemed unfazed and determined. As the meeting continued, Lilian's mind raced with memories of the chaos and heartache their family had endured because of their previous business entanglements.When the meeting concluded, and the room began to empty, Lilian turned to her father. "Dad, we need to talk," she s

Katie and Nora stood outside the gymnasium, gazing at the cheerleading squad practicing their routines. They had decided to join the cheerleading team to immerse themselves more in school activities and to hopefully shake off some of the negative experiences Katie had endured. As they walked over, their hearts pounded with a mix of excitement and nerves. The leader of the cheerleading squad, Mandy, spotted them immediately. Her face lit up with a calculated smile. Mandy was notorious for using her position to manipulate new members into doing her dirty work, and Katie and Nora seemed like perfect targets. "Well, well, look who decided to join us," Mandy said, sauntering over. "Katie, right? And Nora?" "Yeah, that’s us," Katie replied cautiously. "Great. We could always use some fresh faces. Just remember, if you don’t do exactly as I say, you won’t get a chance to be part of this squad. Understood?" Katie and Nora exchanged nervous glances but nodded in agreement. They knew Mandy

Katie sat on the bleachers, engrossed in her novel. The world of the book was a welcome escape from the tensions of high school life. She was so absorbed in the story that she barely noticed someone approaching until a shadow fell across the page.Looking up, Katie saw a guy she recognized from the quarterback team. He had a friendly, open face, and he smiled as he took a seat next to her. "Hey," he said. "Mind if I sit here?"Katie blinked in surprise but nodded. "Sure, go ahead.""I'm Blake," he introduced himself, holding out his hand. "I’m new here and just joined the team."Katie shook his hand, still a bit surprised. "Katie. Nice to meet you."Blake sighed and leaned back, looking up at the sky. "Freshman year is tough, huh? Especially with Andrew making it harder than it needs to be."Katie’s eyebrows shot up. "Andrew giving you trouble too?""Yeah," Blake said with a rueful smile. "He seems to think he owns the place. It’s been a rough few weeks."Katie nodded sympatheticall

Katie had just returned from school, her bag slung over one shoulder, when Lilian called out to her from the kitchen. "Katie, can you come here for a moment?" Katie sighed, already feeling the weariness of the day settle in. She dropped her bag by the stairs and walked into the kitchen where Lilian was bustling around, preparing dinner. "What’s up, Mom?" Katie asked, leaning against the counter. Lilian turned to face her, a look of anticipation on her face. "We have to get ready. We’re having dinner with one of Dad’s business partners at their mansion tonight." Katie’s eyes widened in shock. "What? Since when do I start attending business dinners? I’m not interested, and I hate business meetings too." Lilian gave her a reassuring smile. "It’s not a business meeting, honey. It’s just dinner with a friend from work." Katie shook her head. "No way. I’m not interested." She turned on her heel and started heading up the stairs. "Katie, please," Lilian called after her, but Katie had

Katie sat frozen, her eyes wide as Andrew took his seat across from his father. He was dressed impeccably in a brown suit, his usually tousled blonde hair styled into elegant curls. The sight of him made her stomach churn, and she felt a sudden urge for the ground to open up and swallow her whole. Andrew's initial shock at seeing Katie was evident, but he quickly composed himself, shooting her a smirk that made her feel even more uneasy. She stared down at her plate, unable to meet his gaze. Sebastian, sensing the tension, leaned towards Katie and asked quietly, "Are you alright?" Katie nodded, forcing a smile. "Yes, I'm fine, Dad." But her hands were sweating, Lilian noticed the tension and asked if she was sure, she stammered out another unconvincing reassurance.Andrew cleared his throat loudly, drawing everyone's attention. "Isn't it obvious that she has stage fright," he said, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "She's trying to hide her shame. This is probably her first time at a

Lilian sat on the couch, her face a mask of worry. She couldn’t stop thinking about Katie and Andrew. The way they had reacted to each other at the dinner last night had been unsettling, to say the least. Sebastian walked in and saw her, he immediately sensed her distress. "What's the problem?" he asked, sitting down beside her. Lilian sighed deeply, her eyes filled with concern. "I'm scared, Sebastian. I’m scared that Katie might end up like us. Did you see the way they reacted to each other on the first day of meeting? It’s obvious that Katie doesn’t like Andrew, and he doesn’t like her either." Sebastian sighed as well, knowing this conversation was inevitable. "The contract is already signed, Lilian. If we call it off now, we’ll lose up to $10 billion. That will bring the company to its knees. Mr. Turner is certain this contract will double our benefits if it lasts long. They're both in highschool so they're likely to see each other and interact." Lilian’s face tightened wi

Katie and Blake sat on a bench in the park, the gentle breeze rustling the leaves around them. Blake had been venting his frustration about Andrew for the past few minutes. "I don't get why Andrew keeps coming after you," Blake said, shaking his head. "What's his business with you anyway?" Katie sighed, feeling the weight of Blake's question. "I don't know why he's doing this. If he hates me so much, he should just stay away from me." Before Katie could offer another word, Blake took her hand in his. "I'm sorry, Katie, but I have to do this," he said, his voice trembling slightly. Katie's eyes widened. "Do what? Blake, what are you talking about? Is what Andrew said true?" Instead of answering, Blake took off his shirt, revealing his chiseled abs. He grabbed Katie's hand and placed it on his stomach. "Feel it," he said, his voice low and insistent. Katie was shocked. She pulled her hand back as if she had touched fire and stood up abruptly. "What are you doing, Blake?" she deman

The Substitute Billionaire Wife 132. Run into you
Katie sat at the cafeteria table, a tray of untouched food in front of her, as she excitedly recounted the details of her date with Andrew to Nora. "And then, at the end of the night, he asked me to be his girlfriend," Katie said, her cheeks flushing with happiness. Nora’s jaw dropped. “You’re kidding me!” she exclaimed, shaking her head in disbelief. “Andrew? The Andrew who’s been teasing you all this time?” Katie nodded, her eyes sparkling. “I know it sounds crazy, but he was really sweet. He told me he’s been thinking about me a lot.” Nora still looked skeptical. “I don’t know, Katie. Are you sure about this? He’s always been kind of a jerk.” Katie opened her mouth to respond, but before she could say anything, Andrew appeared beside their table. He slid into the seat next to Katie, casually draping his arm around the back of her chair. “Hey, ladies,” he said, giving them a charming smile. Nora’s eyes widened, and she glanced between Katie and Andrew, still trying to process w

As the night wore on, Andrew and Katie drove back to her house in a serene, comfortable silence. The moonlight bathed the streets in a soft glow, and the only sounds were the gentle hum of the car and their intertwined thoughts about the evening.When they pulled up in front of Katie’s house, Andrew turned off the engine and looked at her with a seriousness that made her heart skip a beat.“Katie,” he began, his voice steady but filled with emotion, “I know what I want, and what I want is you. I don’t want to play any games or pretend anymore. Will you be my girlfriend?”Katie felt her heart swell with emotion. The words she had longed to hear were finally spoken. She looked into his eyes, seeing sincerity and vulnerability. “Yes, Andrew,” she said softly, a radiant smile spreading across her face. “I’d love to be your girlfriend.”Andrew’s face lit up with happiness, and he leaned in, capturing her lips in a tender, heartfelt kiss. It was a kiss full of promise and new beginnings, an

Katie stood in front of her mirror, smoothing out the creases in her red shoulder-length dress. The fabric shimmered slightly under the soft light of her bedroom, and she couldn’t help but smile at her reflection. Her hair straightened to perfection, cascaded down her back. She added a touch of mascara and lip gloss, then stepped back to admire her handiwork. Satisfied, she grabbed her small clutch and took a deep breath. As she descended the stairs, she saw Lillian in the kitchen, feeding Kat. Lillian glanced up and her eyes widened with surprise. “Wow, Katie, you look stunning! Where are you off to?” Katie paused, feeling a bit nervous. “I’m going out with Andrew. He asked me on a date.” Lillian’s surprise deepened. “Andrew? When did you start hanging out with him?” Katie shrugged, trying to play it cool. “We’ve been talking more lately. He’s not as bad as I thought.” Lillian raised an eyebrow but smiled. “Well, have fun. Just be careful, okay? Don't forget to come back on time
The Substitute Billionaire Wife 129. Trouble
Mandy stormed down the hallway, her anger bubbling just beneath the surface. One of her loyal minions, Jessica, had just informed her that Andrew and Katie were seen together in the school café. Mandy bit her lower lip, the taste of betrayal sharp on her tongue as she hurried toward the café.In the school café, Katie and Andrew were deep in conversation, oblivious to the storm approaching. They laughed and shared stories, the bond between them growing stronger with each passing moment. Andrew reached out to tuck a stray lock of Katie's hair behind her ear, a tender gesture that did not go unnoticed by the few students lingering nearby.Mandy burst through the doors of the café, her eyes immediately locking onto the couple. "Andrew!" she shouted, her voice echoing through the room. The café fell silent as all eyes turned to her. "I can't believe you're hanging out with a girl like her."Andrew looked up, his expression hardening. "Mandy, so what's wrong with that?" he asked, trying to
The Substitute Billionaire Wife 128. Friendship
As Andrew and Katie sat side by side on the front steps, the evening air cool and crisp, they found themselves talking more openly than they ever had before. The tension that had filled the dinner conversation began to dissipate, replaced by a tentative curiosity about each other.Andrew turned to Katie, his expression earnest. "You know, Katie, apart from the contract, I don’t see it as such a bad thing, getting married to someone like you. You’re cute, smart, and pretty amazing."Katie laughed, a light sound that eased the remaining tension between them. "You think I’m cute? Really? Coming from the guy who’s been mean to me since day one?"Andrew shrugged, a sheepish smile on his face. "I know I’ve been a jerk, and I’m sorry about that. The truth is, I liked you from the start, but I didn’t want to show it. You’re different from the other girls I’ve met, and I didn’t know how to handle it. So, I ended up acting like an idiot."Katie’s smile softened. "I thought you hated me. The fir
The Substitute Billionaire Wife 127. Dinner Chaos
Sebastian and Lillian sat in the Turner’s opulent living room, the tension palpable as they broached the sensitive subject. Mr. Turner, a tall man with a stern face, leaned back in his chair, while Mrs. Turner, a refined woman with a composed demeanor, sat beside him, her hands folded neatly in her lap.Sebastian took a deep breath, glancing at Lillian for support. "We need to discuss the business contract between Katie and Andrew," he began. "Katie found out about it from Andrew, and she's not taking it well. She won't talk to us, and we need to figure out a way to handle this situation. Is there any possibility of terminating the contract?"Mr. Turner sighed deeply, his expression unyielding. "The contract is still fresh. Terminating it would mean losing twice the profit according to the agreement. Our companies would suffer significant losses. I understand your concern, but this contract is binding."Lillian's eyes were pleading as she leaned forward. "But Katie is against it, we t
The Substitute Billionaire Wife 126. Within the halls
Nora jogged to catch up with Katie, who was walking briskly down the hallway, her face flushed with frustration. "Katie, wait up!" Nora called, finally reaching her. "Hey, about Andrew standing up for you... I think it's kinda sweet."Katie's eyes flashed with annoyance. "What's the point, Nora? I just want to be left alone." She quickened her pace, trying to escape the conversation.As Katie continued down the hall, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. People were staring at her, more than usual. She had always managed to fly under the radar, blending into the background. But today, it felt like she was under a spotlight.She passed two girls standing by their lockers, who whispered something to each other and then shot her angry glares. Katie frowned, her heart beginning to pound with anxiety. When she finally reached her locker, the reason for the stares became painfully clear.A note was taped to her locker, written in bold, mocking letters: **"She's married to A

Sebastian walked through the front door, his mind preoccupied with the usual work stress, but his heart heavy with worry about Katie. The second he entered, Lillian met him in the hallway, her face etched with concern."Honey, we seriously need to talk," she began, her voice barely concealing the anxiety, "Katie found out about the contract. Andrew told her everything."Sebastian's face fell. "What? How did he find out?"Lillian shook her head. "I don't know, but Katie won't talk to me. She didn't eat breakfast, and she refused to let me take her to school this morning. I knew something like this would happen. This is exactly why I was against that business contract."Sebastian sighed deeply, rubbing his temples. "I'll talk to her. We'll fix this."He walked upstairs, each step feeling heavier than the last. When he reached Katie's bedroom door, he knocked softly. "Katie, it's Dad. Can we talk?"There was no response. He knocked again, a little louder. Finally, the door opened a crack
The Substitute Billionaire Wife 124. Uncovered Secret
Katie finished tucking Kat and Tristan into their beds, giving each a kiss on the forehead before softly closing their doors. She headed to her own room, looking forward to some peace and quiet. As she flicked on the light, she froze in shock. Andrew was sitting on her bed, casually flipping through one of her novels."What the hell are you doing here?" she hissed, quickly closing the door behind her to avoid waking her siblings or alerting her parents. "You need to leave before my parents see you."Andrew looked up, an amused smirk playing on his lips. "Nice to see you too, Katie," he said, leaning back against her pillows as if he belonged there.Katie stormed over, snatching the book from his hands. "Don't touch my stuff," she snapped.Andrew laughed, making himself more comfortable. "Relax, Katie. I came here to see you, I couldn't sleep. I keep thinking about you and the fact that you'll soon be my wife."Katie’s eyes widened in disbelief before she let out a sarcastic laugh. "Yo
