All Chapters of Substitute Groom: Married to an Enemy : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Sensing that someone was looking at her, slowly, Moriah opened her eyes. "Good morning," Ethan greeted in his magnetic voice. "Good morning," Moriah greeted him back blandly and sat up. "I brought breakfast for you," Ethan said, took the breakfast tray and placed them over her lap. "I cooked that," Ethan said, Moriah gave him a suspicious stare. Ethan chuckled. "The chef told me what to do." Only after burning dozens of eggs and numerous bacon he was able to cook something that would be okay to eat. He also burned all the bread loaves. The chef jokingly complained that he nearly emptied the kitchen. And said they have to buy ingredients again. Moriah looked at the food and apparently it wasn't the chef who prepared the breakfast. The loaf bread was a bit burned. She looked back at her husband's face and her pathetic heart started to feel warm again, melting the ice. She smiled and hadn't noticed the tears at the corner of her eyes. "I'm sorry, baby," he said while reaching out t

Moriah shook her head and lowered her gaze. She started digging in her food. Taking into account that George was present, she refrained from talking to her husband, scared that he would say embarrassing things. Moriah was thankful that Ethan ate and did not say anything until the dinner was over. After dinner, Ethan went to the study room while Moriah stayed in their bedroom and spent time reading a book. She didn’t know how long before she slept. The sun was beginning to peep out the clouds when Moriah woke up. The first thing she did was to look at the person lying beside her. Her heart brimmed with joy, watching him sleep. She wanted to kiss him, however, at the thought that she would wake up the beast in him and make her tired again, she chose not to disturb his sleep. Slowly, she turned, carefully getting up so she wouldn't wake him up. All of a sudden, she was pulled back on the bed. She yelped and screamed. "Are you startling me to death?" "Where are you going?" He pulled

Shaun smirk and replied, "Unlike other women, Moriah is beautiful from the inside out. Some women thought that outward appearance would get a man's attention. They would dress in a manner that left nothing to the imagination. Moriah isn't one of them, that's why I fell in love with her." Hazel could tell from Shaun's tone that what he said was an indirect attack to her. Ethan looked at Shaun with a bone chilling gaze, Shaun didn't mind his icy cold stare. “Moriah is not only a beauty, she’s a beauty with a brain, unlike others,” Cindy chimed in, Hazel was livid but she wasn’t deterred to do her purpose. "You guys dated for how long?" Hazel asked, so she could drive a wedge between Ethan and Moriah. "Over a decade," Shaun answered. Zachary was relieved to see the server pushing the trolley inside the room. "The food is here," he said, to put an end to Hazel’s inquiry. Moriah let out a soft sigh, thankful that the server came just at the right time. She felt that Ethan would exp

"Dad, why don't you give the company to my half brother?" Ethan deliberately changed the subject, unwilling to discuss the subject further. "He isn't fit to take over the company. I've given him enough time to prove himself worthy of handling the company but he failed me." Brandon said and faced the French window, looking outside. "Son, your grandfather started this company, it's his legacy and I want it to continue, giving the reins to your brother, this company will sink in no time." After nearly an hour, Fiona came into the study. "Your wife is ready," Fiona said to his son. Just as Ethan was reaching for the door knob, Fiona spoke, "Son, take care of your wife. She's precious." Ethan froze for a moment and turned to look at his mother's eyes. "I will." He heard his mother let out a sigh when he was about to leave. Stepping into the room, Ethan froze and stopped dead. He saw Moriah standing near the French window, looking outside. Ethan surveyed her, the white business sui

"Mom and dad, are waiting," Ethan gave her a boyish grin, making Moriah gasp. She always finds herself gasping for air each time he smiles like that. They emerged from the bathroom and found Brandon and Fiona seated on the loveseat. "Mom, dad," Moriah smiled, her heart was moved to see how they cared for her. "Are you alright, dear?" Fiona asked as she scrutinized Moriah's appearance. She looked pale and frail. "You don't have to worry, mom and dad. Ethan had been taking care of me, I was just too stubborn and refused to eat breakfast…really I'm fine," Moriah tried her best to persuade them so they would stop worrying. "Okay, if you said so, we believe you," Fiona said and rose to her feet. "We'll have dinner at the villa tonight. We'll take our leave now so you can have your needed rest." "See you tonight," Moriah said and hugged Fiona. "See you, dear," Fiona said, stroking Moriah's back. Soon after his parents left, Ethan swept her in his arms. Moriah squealed. "Did you m
