All Chapters of The Billionaire's Replacement Bride: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

(Kim's Point of View)Shyness and embarrassment, I'd never felt it hit me this hard. The blush on my cheeks was evident and the fact that he hadn't stopped staring was not helping.There I was in my room, with a towel wrapped around my chest and it barely covered my thighs, my hair was wet as I just got out of the shower and, then, the door of my room opened and I gasped in shock as Arthur wheeled in.We froze and so did time. I held my towel tightly to my chest and gulped as he drank me in, his grey eyes going from my face to my legs and they remained there. I didn't know if I imagined it at the flash of lust in his eyes and he gulped before he looked back at my face and my breath hitched at the way his eyes went foggy and I felt trapped in them and suddenly, I felt my body getting heated under his gaze. I wasn't uncomfortable but why wasn't he looking away? I don't recognize my body whenever he looks at me like that!"Arthur," His name lightly left my lips and I almost didn't recogn

(Kim's Point of View)First of all, I didn't know how Ivy made me come to this bullshit called a high school reunion. Why did I come? And what was I anticipating?I let Ivy chatter me into this and I was abhorring every moment of my life as we sauntered into the private suit they had equipped for this so-called reunion and we were unpunctual, not that I cared. "I have a bad feeling about this Ivy," I heralded for the nth time since Ivy called me out from my house, luckily it was Saturday and blue cloud weather. Ivy rolled her eyes at me. "Come on, it's going to be alright, we are only going to meet our former friends," "Your old friends you mean, you were my only friend in high school, and don't get me started on college. No one wants to be friends with a techie," I verbalized, recollecting my horrendous school life. "There's nothing wrong with being a nerd, I was a geek too remember,"I lolled at her words. Yes, she was a dork but not my type of nerd. She didn't have bizarre glas

(Evy's Point of View)"Why do you still keep ignoring my calls?" Sebastian catechized as soon I picked up the call and brought it to my ear.I licked over my dehydrated lips. "I have not. I've been quite brisk. I promise not to ignore your calls anymore remember," I ensured him before a cough came from the other side. "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?""No, how can I get sick, it's just a little cough and perhaps a bit of cold, other than that, I'm in perfect shape,"I was already on my feet when another cough reached my ear but more severe. "That doesn't sound like it's nothing. Text me your address, I will be there in fifteen minutes,""It's fine, you don't have to come. You said you are occupied, didn't you? I don't want to infringe on your work,"I rolled my eyes. "Just send me your freaking address, Mr. Evans," I demanded and a chuckle came from the other side."Alright, alright Mrs. Evans. I will send you my address," With that, I hung up and began packing my things off my

(Evy's Point Of View)Every blow, every unwelcome touch, every insult flashed before my eyes like a rerun of the wretched existence I used to live, making my stomach churn and my heart incinerate. It stings!"Baby,"The pet name ran through my thoughts like a soothing symphony I wanted to hear for the rest of my life. My eyes opened on their own, revealing a pair of wary and worried-filled silver orbs staring down at me. Suddenly, the pain in my heart vanished, and it was replaced with warmth and tranquility."Baby, come here," He didn't ask if I was alright because he knew I wasn't. I giddily complied and rolled on his chest, and his arm around my waist and drew me close. When he kissed my head, I hummed. "Would you like to talk about it, baby?"I closed my eyes, considering whether or not to tell him, and before I could react, he beat me to it."I want you to know that I will not put any pressure on you to tell me anything. I'm willing to wait our entire lives because I know it will

(Kim's Point of View)"We are here Mrs. Rodriguez,"At the voice, I eventually looked up from my phone and peered out the window, realizing the car had stopped in front of a gold-colored home. I nearly gawked at the mansion and stepped out of the car carefully. The Evans was, in fact, the country's second wealthiest family.A lady dressed as a maid stood in front of the main door, beaming as she proceeded down the front steps, approaching me. "Mrs. Rodriguez, Mrs. Evans has been anticipating your coming,"I reciprocated the smile as she led me inside the house, and if Arthur's home had left me in amazement, this time it was the opulence that greeted me.She walked me to a spacious living room and offered me a seat. "Do you want something to drink while I notify Mrs. Evans of your arrival?""I'd be ok with just water, thank you!" I grinned as she walked away, returning a minute later with a glass of water, giving it to me, and then she was gone to notify Mrs. Evans.I had no clue why t
