All Chapters of The Billionaire’s lost wife : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Chapter two Evangeline rushed out of the cab as soon as she reached the gates of the Castillo mansion, her home which was gifted to both her and Damien right after the wedding. It was a truly enchanting house which stood tall against the backdrop of a beautiful lush garden, the architecture was also stunning with elegant columns framing the entrance, and a charming balcony on the second floor- still she dreaded the innermost parts of it. “When did he get here?”. She asked a guard standing right at the entrance in a frantic manner, a triple of nervous sweat streamed down her cheek which she brushed off immediately with a napkin. “An hour ago ma’am”. He responded. An hour wasn’t good, she thought, she almost winced as she managed to escape hitting the door in an exasperated attempt to get to the dining hall before any more time was wasted. a faint gasp left her as she finally reached and her eyes fell on the man she was married to. He’d gotten more buffer than

Chapter four Beatrice Castillo was a scary looking woman. She was blonde unlike her son, thin framed and borderline anorexic with high defined cheekbones and a permanent scowl on her face. Evangeline dreaded meeting her mother in law, she wasn’t the mean spirited woman holding onto a cliche archetype, neither was she welcoming herself. In a frantic bid to not keep her mother-in-law waiting she slipped into a simple green blouse and dark slacks. The Castillo family took pride in their outwardly appearance which reeked of nothing but pure elegance and simplicity, she was their daughter-in-law and needed to uphold this tradition. Her mother-in-law was at the dining hall, seated on the chair only reserved for Damien with him by her side. Evangeline nodded in silence to acknowledge her presence and sat next to her husband, she felt an increasingly amount of negative tension oozing from every part of his body but she would also love nothing more than to keep her distance from

Amelia wanted nothing more but to spill the secret right here and now, she wanted Evelyn to know that she was her daughter in law– wanted her to know that she met her as a little girl and was close friends with Ferdinand. She remained silent and smiled, “She’s out on business. My son doesn’t like me talking about his wife”. “Does he love her?”, the second question blurted out of Evelyn’s mouth which she regretted again, “I’m sorry I….i shouldn’t be asking you that”. Amelia chuckled, “it’s alright dear”, she pursed her lips, “what about you? Are you married??” At this moment Evelyn had two options–lie and get on with it or tell the truth about her contract marriage with a nonexistent husband who didn’t care about her. “It’s complicated”. She retorted “Complicated as you’re not married or getting a divorce?” “Just complicated”, Evelyn smiled, “Marriage is a tough job”. “It isn’t if you both love each

She picked out one of the nicer dresses from her closet– a blue frock-like dress with a pretty pastel pink bow at the waist band. It looked too fancy, she thought and pushed it back into rack, after a minute of contemplation she resorted to a nice black blouse with matching slacks to go with it. It was only a simple dinner meeting after all. Her doorbell rang and her face lit up in excitement, expecting to see Gloria she ran towards the door and opened it. Immediately her excitement died down seeing who it was. “Surprise!!”. Oscar and Maya screamed excitedly with their arms open wide to show their enthusiasm. Evelyn blinked, dazed with confusion, “Wh…what are you guys doing here??”. “Ouch that hurt”, Oliver chortled as he ushered himself in with his fiancé. Evelyn noticed him place a bottle of wine on her center table, “Maya and I feel sorry for wasting your time two days ago so we thought of spending the evening with you”. Evelyn
