“Cassie! You need to read this!” Maya squealed excitedly, hurrying over to her with her phone. Cassie broke her gaze from the pile of dresses on her bed and turned to her sister with a frustrated sigh.“What is it now, Maya? I need to sort out my outfits for my video” Maya sat on the bed with a loud thump and patted by her side for Cassie to join her.“Oh trust me, you need to read this!”Cassie sat down and accepted the phone. She was met with random screenshots from her Instagram page all over a fashion blog.“THE RETURN OF CASSIE B!”“““When Miss Cassie B made her entrance into the fashion scene, it was obvious that she was something special.After a long hiatus, the gorgeous fashion model suddenly made an appearance on Instagram with a fashion content page that is rapidly gaining followers every minute!So far, Miss Cassie has thrilled us with mind-blowing fashion content and we can't get enough!Will she be back on the runway soon?”””*******Cassie felt a big smile break out o

As Zander walked towards his office door, he was met by his secretary wringing her hands nervously.“Umm…you have a guest Sir”She appeared flustered and avoided his eyes.“I told her that you were not on seat yet and she needed an appointment but she barged in, Sir. I couldn't stop her. I am sorry.”He could think of two people that would barge into his office; his mother and his sister, Zoe. But none of them required an appointment to see him.“Who is it?” He asked calmly “Miss Bella, Sir”His day was off to a rocky start then. He smiled at the lady to put her at ease. “That is alright. I am sure you did your best. I will take over from here”She heaved a sigh of relief and quickly returned to her desk as he walked into his office, bracing himself for whatever drama Bella was bringing his way.She jumped up from the couch as soon as he entered. He narrowed his eyes at the glass of wine already sitting comfortably in her hand.“What are you doing here, Bella?” Taking care to avoi

“How did you manage to get this done in such short notice?” the only female board member asked, her eyes wide as saucers.“Is this real? Can we verify this information?” Another board member asked, turning over the pages of the file before him over and over again as if that would give him some form of confirmation.Zander exchanged looks with Jeffrey, pride coursing through his veins and threatening to explode through him. He beamed with smiles at the board member whose eyes were threatening to pop from their sockets.“It saddens me to see how much you all underestimate me and my team. But, that is okay because I get to prove you all wrong every single time” Zander replied.It was not okay. He was humiliated and was still burning with animosity towards them but the blank stares of disbelief on their faces made it all worth the stress.As Cameron strolled arrogantly into the boardroom, oblivious to the news Zander had just shared with the board members, he spun around with his seat to

“Breaking News!”“Scott Construction Company, a subsidiary of Scott group of companies has been named as the official company in charge of the renovation of the White House.”Cassie's head snapped up quickly from her phone. She abandoned the video she was editing and reached for the TV remote to increase the volume.The male presenter continued excitedly“Sources say that there was a stiff competition amongst the top construction companies in the country for this deal and despite the recent challenges, Scott Constructions has come out at the top.”“This is coming on the heels of several other international deals. Details are not clear yet but the company's media team has confirmed that Scott Constructions will be taking up several outstanding projects across the globe. This news has had great impact on the company's stock prices which we have seen skyrocketing in the last few days.”“Is this a new era for the Scott group of companies?

Something in her head screamed NO but she couldn't bring herself to look away from his eyes.“I have forgiven you a long time ago, Cameron”His eyes softened at that answer and he gently held up her face to his, staring into her eyes.She knew at that moment that he was going to kiss her. She only wished that she knew why it felt so wrong and yet so exciting at the same time.But she closed her eyes all the same, holding her breath in anticipation until she felt his lips on hers.He paused for the tiniest moment as if he was giving her the chance to step away and when she didn't, his arms gently went around her as he pulled her in and deepened the kiss.Her mind was a whiz of noise and flusters until he pulled away, looking at her face with an expression she could only describe as adoring.“Cameron…”He dipped his head again and took her lips in another kiss, hotter and more demanding than the previous one.This time, her body responded with a hunger she couldn't recognize.Grasping

“Are you even listening to me, Cassie”The persistent tapping on her shoulders released her from the prison of her thoughts and brought her back to reality.She adjusted on the bed and turned to Maya who stood in front of her wearing a long evening dress.She narrowed her eyes, recognizing the dress as one of the many littering her closet.“What do you think? It looks great on me right?”Maya twisted and turned around in the dress as if it would convince her to like it.“Are you going with a date? Are you really going to wear that to your school dinner?” Cassie asked.Her narrowed eyes and scrunched face was enough reply for Maya.Maya groaned in frustration. Picking a dress for her school dinner was turning to a nightmare.“I have no interest in going with a date. Ughh! This dress looked way better hanging in your closet than on my body.” It was too funny not to laugh. “That is what you get when you steal my clothes” Cassie teased.Maya pouted at her“That’s not nice!

“Ughh, she's so gorgeous, it is actually annoying!” an older lady sitting directly across from Zander in the VIP lounge whined, waving her hands decked heavily with fashion rings.She was scrolling on her phone, obviously viewing some pictures.The much younger lady sitting beside her inched closer to her and peeked into the phone.“Gosh! Are those the latest Jimmy Choo sandals from their new collection? I thought those were out of stock!”“Well, apparently she is one of the selected few that got their hands on those sandals. I am so jealous!”Zander’s frown deepened and he gave himself a mental slap for the hundredth time for forgetting to get his ear plugs.Now, he was forced to listen to this annoying conversation until his jet was ready. To make matters worse, he was actually on his way to London for a fashion show. Could it get any worse?“The jet is ready, Sir”Zander jumped out of his seat in relief. Great timing Jeffrey! Goodness! He thought his ears were about to bleed with

Cassie's stomach was a mess and her heart wasn't helping matters either.The D-day was finally here. She was about to walk the runway for one of the top high fashion brands in the world. She had tried so hard to keep the news on the low. Her management had insisted that her appearance on the runway would have more impact if it came as a surprise but Givenchy wasn't having it.“Your coffee Miss Cassie”She looked up, startled out of her thoughts to see her assistant extending a cup of coffee to her.She was about to asky why when she suddenly remembered asking for it earlier.“Oh.. thanks”She accepted the cup, careful to avoid any spill on her robe.The hairstylist was pulling and pushing her hair in all directions, working silently to get her ready.“The stage is set for your final rehearsal if you like. The director made some little changes to the set up and you may want to see it”She didn't like last minute changes. She nodded and made a mental note to check out the stage again b

The sound of gunshots echoed in her dreams, forcing her eyes wide open. Clutching her stomach protectively, she tried to sit up but a sharp pain stabbed through her shoulders, forcing her backwards.Strong hands pushed back on her hands and she opened her eyes to see Zander staring into her face, his eyes filled with concern.With his rumpled shirt, ruffled hair and the dark circles under his eyes, he looked like he had not slept in days.“Where am I?” Cassie asked. Her hoarse voice sounded so strange in her ears.But one thing weighed heavily on her mind as the memories of the shooting flashed back to her mind.She clutched her stomach. It felt round and soft underneath the soft fabric of her hospital gown. She felt no pain on her belly.“My baby?.....” As the words left her mouth, she suddenly remembered that she had never told Zander. Her eyes flew to his eyes which remained fixed on her face. Did he watch the video? Did he know about the baby now?Zander nodded and as their eyes
Two Billionaire Brothers! and A Surrogate Is This The End?
The creaking sound of the light bulb dangling in the center of the empty room was the first thing Cassie heard when she woke up.Squinting to see clearly in the dimly lit room, she glanced to the side and sighed in relief to see Maya sprawled on the floor, deep asleep.She wasn't sure how long they'd been sleeping but everywhere was silent. A bodyguard sat by the door, wide awake and scrolling through his phone.Someone had loosened the ropes around her arms. The door suddenly burst open and Cameron stormed in with Frank following closely behind.Cassie sat up in the chair, her eyes and ears on full alert.What happened? Why was Cameron looking so angry?“I told you he would try something crazy, didn't I? My face is all over the news!” He yelled, banging his fist on the concrete wall.Her legs shook beneath her. The news? Frank suddenly turned to glare at her as if he had just remembered that she was in the room.“Your boyfriend seems to enjoy pissing me off huh?”She stared at him.
Two Billionaire Brothers! and A Surrogate Speed Things Up
The tension in the room was palpable as Frank and Cameron exchanged glances behind the scene.After a long pause, Frank turned back to the screen, an evil smile hovering on his face.“You have 30 minutes. If I call back in thirty minutes and you haven't granted my requests, then you will not see your woman ever again”The threat was loud and clear. The billionaire heir to one of the largest business empires in the country was being asked to choose between his inheritance and some random woman.Cassie blinked hard to keep the tears from rolling down her cheeks. She knew he couldn't see her from the video chat. They were keeping her as a last resort.She whimpered softly, watching the dread cloud his face as he nodded before the screen went blank.They were asking him to choose between her and his company? Frank gestured to one of his men who moved over to turn the camera towards her.“Now, you're going to read that letter to the camera for your little boyfriend” Frank ordered.She lif

She blinked again to be sure. “What…..what is this? Why?.....” She wasn't even sure which question to ask. He stopped a few feet from her and stood with his hands in his pockets, staring at her.She met his gaze and shivered at the icy look in his eyes. It almost felt like she didn't really know him anymore.The silence in the room was deafening. But not as loud as the pain of betrayal slicing through her ribs, squeezing the air from her lungs and leaving a trail of bitterness in her throat.Her eyes followed him as he lowered to a squatting position.“I am sorry, Cassie but I had no other choice….”She narrowed her eyes at him. What on earth did he mean by that?“What connects you to this….this man?” She blurted out, struggling to keep the tears from spilling over.“Why are you helping him?” She asked, throwing a quick glance in Frank's direction.Cameron sighed.“I just want to claim what is mine and Zander is standing in my way. He took you from me…..he has taken everything away
Two Billionaire Brothers! and A Surrogate The Exchange
(TWO DAYS LATER)“Do you think we are making a mistake?” Zander asked, glancing at the document in his hand.He watched silently as Stone typed rapidly on his computer, barely listening to the conversation.“I am sorry but I don't think Miss Cassie has the patience to wait.” Stone replied.Zander nodded and glanced again at the file in his hand. It has been barely 48hrs and even though Cassie appeared to be calm and following their instructions, he had just received an update from Jeffrey.“She has just sold her jewelry collection worth over 5 million dollars to a collector and was seen making trips to the bank in secret just this morning." Stone added.He had to agree. It was a suspicious move. She didn't trust him enough to wait and decided to take matters into her own hands.“You think she will pay the money?” He muttered.He already knew the answer. There was no sacrifice too big for Cassie to make for her sister.Could he blame her though? Would be have done anything different?

“He called again?” Zander asked, the disappointment clearly written all over his face.Cassie nodded, lowering her eyes. He ran a hand through his hair, barely concealing his frustration.“I am not surprised. I expected another call and that is why I left some of my men behind to keep an eyes on things….” Stone murmured.As he said the last part, he turned slowly to glare at the officers who quickly lowered their heads in shame.“Why did I leave you behind if you had to miss such an important update?” He scolded them.Cassie sighed. “It isn't their fault. They didn't know that I had a phone with me in the room and no one could have known when I woke up and took the call….”They had only found out that she was awake a few minutes ago, when the detective and Zander had returned. She caught an officer trying to stifle a yawn.They must have been awake all night.“What did he want? Did he make any demands?” Zander asked, breaking the awkward silence.Cassie’s head snapped up and her conv
Two Billionaire Brothers! and A Surrogate What If They Want Something Else?
Zander watched the gentle rise and fall of her chest in her sleep. It had taken a solid hour but eventually, the crying and sobbing finally pushed her to sleep. Stone hovered by the door, waiting to speak to him.He glanced at him and sighed deeply.If only he could just stay by her side while handling things. He desperately wished he could just watch her sleep and everything would be fine by morning.Another signal from Stone finally forced him to move away. He slid his hands from underneath her and let her body fall gently into the soft sheets, then covered her up and strolled to the door.“I don't think....." Stone began but Zander hushed him with a wave.“Shhhh...... she's finally sleeping." he whispered.He shut the door with a soft click behind them and pushed Stone ahead, far away from the door.“Alright. Go on..."“Well......we cannot do much right now...." Stone continued, his ice blue eyes barely hiding his frustration.Zander frowned. That wasn't what he was expecting to h
Two Billionaire Brothers! and A Surrogate Wait For Another Call
Cassie stood like a statue in her living room, barely listening to the bustling of officers moving from one point to another.Detective Stone stood like a general in command gesturing in different directions as they set up all kinds of equipment in her house.A gentle tap on her shoulder forced her out of her thoughts and she jumped in surprise.“Heyy" Zander whispered.“It's just me. How are you holding up?" he asked, his kind eyes peering into her face.She barely had it together. All it would take to crush her right now was a any bad news about her sister. But she plastered a weak smile on her face and turned to him.“I am good"His brows twisted for a second and the doubt crossed his eyes but he pursed his lips. She glanced around at her living room. Stone and his men had converted it into a control room of some sorts with monitors and strange devices she couldn't recognize.Zander moved away from her and drew closer to the detective but she followed closely behind him, her ears

Cassie tried hard not to let her eyes follow Jim as he paced from one end of the office to another.“Come on, Jim. You're going to punch holes in the floor with all that pacing” He turned to her with a pout and rubbed his forehead in frustration.“Easy for you to say, superstar. You're not the one who's going to reject all those juicy deals and watch money move from our hands to another's pockets”She shook her head. It was even more painful for her to think about all the money she was going to lose but she had to think about her baby first.Jim stopped pacing to look at her.“You are really not going to tell me why you need this urgent break?” He asked, his curious eyes searching her face.She lowered her head to avoid his eyes. It wasn't fair that she wouldn't give him any good reasons for her actions but Jim was always kind and understanding, so he wouldn't push for answers anyway.“I don't think you'll understand, Jim. I really need a break to sort out something personal” she rep
