All Chapters of THE BILLIONAIRE'S SURROGATE BRIDE: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

...Morning came faster for me, Last night he was out to visit his mother and didn't return, so I wonder if he is back now or still has not returned.Slowly I rolled off the bed and wiggled my way to the door on opening it he passed through me without saying a word his strong cologne filling the air as he walked as if I wasn't there, I immediately followed him.Rehearsing my word within as I bring myself to say it."Can we ta...," my words hung on air on seeing who was seated at the living room.My tongue dried up immediately as I watched her stand up with concern in her eyes reaching out to him."We need to hurry, she will be in..." she paused on seeing me "What is going on?" I asked directly at her with concern but she chose to look away, then the dots begin to connect, his mother? Could it be the surgery?"Max?" I called him but he was long gone again not looking back as Seraphina smiled in my face.That was far from my worries, what could be going on in his head right now? How is

"No," he said looking into my eyes as he moved back detaching completely from me and leaning on the wall opposite me."There is something I want to tell you," I began while he straightened his back leaning off the wall."I don't want to hear anything today, Luna," he said not allowing me to speak, I nodded understanding that indeed now is not the time.He nodded looking at me as if pacing a message, he opened the door going into the room while I stood by the door, I don't know but it's very obvious that the woman I came to visit does not remember me.I watched him stroke her hair and lowering over to kiss her forehead before leaving her side, she was awake I could tell by the way she reached out for his hand before he began to approach.I heard marching legs approaching towards me, I almost panicked but on seeing Nathaniel and a couple of familiar faces I managed to cool off."You know what to do," he said to them before walking away, I stood fixated on the ground watching his perfect

(Luna's pov)The drive to his workplace was rather too far from the hospital, thankfully the music playing killed the awkwardness, for the first time ever it was just us alone riding.I was thinking we will never reach it till I suddenly began to recognize the road."Suddenly seems far today," I said "This is a different route," he said casually getting out of the car, did he seriously intentionally follow the long route, no wonder he turned on the music.I got down too watching as he handled his keys over before turning to look at me."Why are you always away from me?" he asked with a raised brow "you move fast and I hardly keep up," I replied watching as a cover of his cheeks curled in, he stretched his hand to me pulling me close to him, he was quick with it but my heart still remains quicker and undefeated."That was smooth," I said masking my awareness as I heard him chuckle almost like music to my ears, I wonder if the whole of today is among the things I am supposed to forget

NARRATOR (SABASTINE)Sabastine's brow furrowed as he parked his car along the side of the road. He glared at the towering building complex before him, prison. A grim reminder of the past he couldn't escape. The air was thick with tension, and his mood was as sour as the memories that haunted him.Stepping out of the car, his footsteps echoed in the silent surroundings. The gravel crunched beneath his shoes, a stark contrast to the heavy silence that enveloped the area. As he closed the car door, the metallic clank seemed to resonate with the iron bars of the prison gates that loomed ahead.He took a deep breath, his chest tight with anxiety. His eyes were fixed on the entrance, his jaw clenched as he steeled himself for what lay ahead. The sky above was overcast, casting a dull light that seemed to intensify the gloominess of the scene.Approaching the prison gates, his heart raced, and a shiver crawled down his spine. The cold, unyielding metal seemed to welcome him back to a place

(Max's Pov)The soft glow from the window painted the room in a warm, inviting light. Luna and I sat side by side on the bed, the weight of the day's events fading into the background as it seems like we are looking for solace in each other's presence. Our shoulders brushed lightly, a subtle connection that remainded me of the hug we shared.I reached out, my fingers grazing her arm in a gentle caress. But as quickly as the touch was initiated, she shifted slightly, pulling away almost imperceptibly. A flicker of confusion passed through me, my heart skipping a beat as I wondered if I had misread the moment. I cleared my throat, searching for words to break the silence that had suddenly settled between us."Are you okay?" I asked softly, my voice carrying a hint of concern, I have come to kmow and see the side of me she likes.She turned her head, her eyes meeting mine briefly before darting away. A small smile played at the corners of her lips, a facade that seemed to belie the turmo
