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

“Are we having a party here or what?” Avery asked, looking over at his family as they stared at him. He caught Zoe and Mia’s sigh of relief before looking over to meet Zoe’s gaze. He knew his mother and brother must have given her hell for giving him alcohol and he still wasn’t sure why she did that either. But he was grateful she had been willing to help.To apologize for the crazy night she must have been through, he walked over and gave her a peck on the cheek, one that surprised the hell out of her.“Well, good morning for a start.” Felicity said to her son, eyeing him and he gave her a little smile.“Good morning, mum.” He answered. “What were the both of you thinking last night?” She asked.“Nothing.” He replied with an unconcerned tone and then continued to look at his wife. “Zoe was only trying to help relieve the stressful day I had gone through.”“Yeah of course.” Aaron said to him, shaking his head. “The both of you really deserve eachother, dumb and dumber.”Avery gave hi

“What?” Zoe exclaimed, not knowing which she was most surprised by. What her mother had said or the fact that she felt good about saying it. “Who was in love with you?”“Her husband.” She replied still wearing the proud look on her face.“How did you know that?” Zoe asked. “Were you also in love with him?”“Of course not.” She answered immediately with a guilty look on her face. “Why would I be in love with a married man?”Zoe nodded her head, still studying her. There was still more to be told because of the look in her eyes and she would try her best to play around it so she wouldn’t come off as being too inquisitive.“So, they were already married before you noticed her husband was in love with you?”“Yes. In fact, we were all married. I noticed for the first time during a business dinner that he was throwing looks at me. Donald was a very handsome man so I felt flattered.”“Flattered?” Zoe asked. “Even as married woman, you were flattered that another married man was throwing look

Avery watched as the hospital staff wheeled his sister and her driver into the hospital. She had been hurt but not as much as her driver. Wherever the car that collided with them had come from, he had no idea, but the car zoomed off in the blink of an eye and left them to deal with their mess. The car had hit the driver’s side and he wasn’t sure David, Mia’s driver was going to make it.Avery walked inside, grateful that the hospital administration had taken them in through the VIP entrance. At least it would stop them from being seen by onlookers in the hospital even though much couldn’t be done at the accident scene.Avery picked up his phone and dialed Jacob’s number and the latter picked up on the fourth ring, a hint of frustration in his voice.“Where are you?” was the first sentence out of Jacob’s mouth. Avery took three breaths to steady himself as he paced the lobby while waiting for his family to come.“Mia was in an accident Jacob.” He answered. There was silence on the othe

“I can handle it, Avery.” Zoe replied immediately. The tone in his voice as he asked the question had scared her, but she wanted to know everything there was to know.“You are just saying that because you are curious.” He replied, closing his tablet.“Avery, you have to tell me.”“Well, it’s nothing.” He said. “I have to get to the company. Stay with Mia until I come get you.”Zoe rolled her eyes at him while he stood up and left. He had been serious when he asked if she could handle the truth, meaning that there was indeed something he was hiding and she needed to find out about it.Quickly, she finished her coffee and headed over to Mia’s room. Thankfully the teenager was alone, surfing through television channels. Zoe walked straight to her and took the couch provided beside her.Mia kept groaning and moving from one channel to the other with the television remote. When she couldn’t find anything suitable to watch, she turned the television off.“Nothing in the whole freaking telev

Zoe woke up to see Avery’s face directly close to hers. He was watching her sleep with a very huge smile on his face. Last night had been very weird for the both of them. They had barely said more than ten words to each other and now, to have him smiling at her that way was confusing.She stirred on the bed and turned to her side in order to be able to get her face in good shape. Avery never woke her up in such manner before. In fact, with the way things were between them, she wasn’t expecting him to still be in bed at this time.It dawned on her immediately so she turned back to take a good look at him again. He was still dressed in his night trouser only that this time, his upper body was bare, but he still had that big smile on his face. That very big Simon smile that was now imprinted in her brain even after meeting him only once.“Simon?” She called just to be sure and his smile widened.Of course, it was Simon. Avery wouldn’t wake up that cheerful especially now that they were n
