All Chapters of The Billionaire's Missing Heir: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Gwen thought it was a good decision to have gone for a formal look before leaving the house.She hadn't imagined that she would accompany Finn to his office, but she was at least presentable now that the situation called for it.As they entered the building, she appreciated the fact that Finn had a personal entrance from the garage, so she wouldn't have to walk by his side in front of every single person.But, as they reached his office's floor, they did meet a few people that threw curious and intrigued glances at her. They probably weren't used to seeing Finn enter his office with a strange woman at his side.He was always the kind of guy that kept his work life and his personal life separate. Maybe that's why everyone was looking at her with a question mark on their faces.His office was crowded with a lot of men in suits and a woman who she assumed was his secretary Melanie."You can come in, it won't take long," he said to Gwen as they reached the door.She felt uncomfortable with

After setting things up with Finn, he showed her around the company and gave her an office and an assistant, Joe, a new graduate who was very eager to help.Gwen pretended not to notice a few eyes checking her out. She was sure that was going to be something frequent, especially after everyone find out that she was the mother of Finn's son. She would have to prepare herself for that.After getting acquainted with everything, Finn asked someone from the marketing department to guide Gwen through their internal process. He excused himself for a bit and said that he would meet her later to take her back home.Gwen was excited, though she still felt butterflies in her stomach. It had been a long time since she started something new in her life, so she was trying not to freak out.She texted Stephanie and asked her to watch Cody for a bit longer, since she had to settle in a bit. She would have to find a new school for Cody as soon as possible; she couldn't continue to ask favors from her f

A few weeks had passed since Gwen introduced Finn to Cody, and they were spending a lot of time together. She was actually surprised that Finn would have so much free time to spend with him, but she wasn't complaining.Ever since Cody discovered that he had a father, the little boy talked about it day and night, which was making her kind of jealous. But seeing her son so happy and delighted was worth anything.Finn was also much happier lately, and people at the company were starting to comment. There was also her new job. Gwen had been busy trying to find a nice place to live, while handling everything she had to learn at work. It was not easy at all, but she could manage it.She asked Finn to help her ship her and Cody's belongings from their old home. She also called the landlord of her previous home to cancel their rent contract, and hired a company to pack her stuff. Finn was going to take care of the rest for her.He also insisted that he was the one to choose the apartment she

Gwen released her arm from Finn's hand, anger replacing her previous nervousness. She wasn't that rude to his mother anyway. Mrs. Lane had been much worse, with her rude implications and sneering looks.So why did Gwen have to accept that and stay quiet like a submissive person? She wasn't going to accept it, especially not from his mother."Maybe you should ask her instead. I don't owe you any explanation," she replied, looking at Finn in disappointment. It wasn't his fault though, and she knew that. Finn had no idea of the shared history between the two women, but Gwen wasn't going to be the one to tell him anything. He wouldn't believe her anyway."What do you mean ask her? You two just met," Finn said, also angry.Gwen gulped."I don't have to say anything to you, okay? And you know what? I'm going home with Cody. This party is over for me. Actually, it didn't even begin.""No, you're not," Finn refused."You don't tell me what to do," she replied, with her head up. "It's already

"I'm so sorry," Gwen said to the man. "My son is not feeling well, so I have to go now." The guy looked intrigued and surprised, like he didn't believe that she was a mother."It's okay. Maybe a next time, right?" he said with a smile, and Gwen felt terrible. He seemed to be so kind."Is Cody okay?" Stephanie asked after they had left the bar and called a cab."Yeah, Finn said he took some medicine, but he wants to see me. He probably ate something he shouldn't have," Gwen explained, already seeing ahead. Cody couldn't eat too much sugar, it always gave him stomachache. Gwen had texted Finn to tell him that she wasn't home, but was going there immediately. When the cab stopped in front of Stephanie's house, Finn was already there, waiting with Cody at the door."Mommy!" Cody came running towards her as soon as she left the car. Gwen made a huge effort to lift him and take him in her arms, since Cody was getting heavier with time."What happened, baby? Did you eat something bad?" she
