Semua Bab Substitute Bride: The Mysterious Billionaire Falls For Me: Bab 21 - Bab 30

***~Asher~I didn't get her name. Even though I had comfortably shared out information about my life with her, I ended up leaving without getting any from her. Not even her name.That day would have ended with my death if she hadn't come to my rescue. I was hanging on a fence, between a home for orphans and death. I was just a child who was bearing the consequences of being born by mistake.My mother had a nightstand with a billionaire and refused an abortion, leaving him no choice but to marry her.I was the product of that mistake.All my life, I always knew I wasn't supposed to be born. My stepmother, Margaret, would always show me just how unwelcomed my mother and I were.Living with the Walton gave me a bittersweet experience. Even though I had a lot of love from my mother and Grandpa, the hate was too strong to overcome it. Ian's hate came solely from the fact that I found favor in Grandpa's eyes and how I was favored more. I swear, I didn't do anything to earn it. It was a nat

~Elena~~He shrieked and left me, staring at his finger with a shocked expression. The moment I felt his weight relieve me a little, I pushed him off me completely, rolled out of bed, and fled the room.I bumped into Flynn in the hallway and he looked concerned when he sighted me."Ma'am, you should not be out here--"There is someone in there! A thief. He snuck in and was trying to.. he was going to hurt me!""A thief?" Flynn's brows tapered."Yes! In Asher's room. He's in there right now, follow me." Before he could argue, I had taken his wrist and was leading him toward Asher's room.He looked like he wanted to resist but instead, he said nothing and walked with me.I threw the room door open and sauntered in, my finger already pointing towards the bed, "he's right-" My words got tied in my throat when my sight greeted the empty bed.Not only was it empty, but it was also dressed.The bedsheet that had been ruffled by our struggles now looked like it was never laid on."He was rig

~Asher~***Tony, my guard, started to charge at them but I held a restraining hand at him, signaling for him to stay back.I turned to her, my patience slowly ticking out, I could feel my face coming into folds as I glared at her.She looked uncomfortable for a moment, "don't look at me like that!" She snapped.Well, this was already her final day here so I made a tough decision to make her leave in one piece.I recalled seeing her around a few times, she was one of Ian's newest secretaries and probably didn't recognize me.Another tough decision was giving her a second chance, "I'm here for the meeting. Step aside."She scoffed like I had uttered some ridiculous words, "I don't find you on the list. Look, I know your type. Just because you're dressed all fancy doesn't mean I wouldn't know where people like you belong to.""And where is that?" I arched a brow. I wasn't sure why I was entertaining her ignorance and arrogance but I was.She hesitated, "the point is that you're not welc

~Asher~***I emptied my wineglass and twitched my face as the sting settled."Another toast to you, my man," Reece began filling up our glasses again."No more for me, I'm driving," I stopped him."Just half, you don't even look drunk," he argued. "I will give you half a glass full.""Reece.." I gave him a look."Half," he stubbornly repeated and resumed pouring into my glass."Come on man, you should be drinking the most right now. Ian is falling into our trap, and soon he will be wrapped around your finger. When that happens, half the plan will be completed," Rocco faced me. "We should be drinking to that success for the rest of today. So don't worry about anything else and drink as much as you want, I'll reach your chauffeur if you get drunk.""Fine," I sighed."Perfect!" Reece childishly jumped in excitement as he filled up my glass. "But you don't look quite excited about our progress. Is something wrong?"I sighed again, taking a sip from the vodka. "I'm fine.""You're not givi

~Asher~***I buried my face in the wall and breathed out when I released, the water sent it down the drain and I felt my shaft relaxing. I remained in that position to calm my breathing, feeling the warm water as it strolled down my back.Just one careless touch from Elena had triggered an erection and picturing her face made me release. It was getting harder everyday to hold back, to stop myself from bending her over and diving into her warmth.How she was able to turn me on so easily was a mystery but I didn't want to find out, not right now. All I wanted to do was invade it and feel her wrap around me.Just the thought of it was messing with my mind and I shook my head to get rid of it.Holding back now felt like torture, the only thing preventing me was Richard's warning, and I still wasn't sure if she had healed enough for me.There was something about her submission and innocence that excited me. No, my body. It excited my body. Elena was just like any other woman, maybe worse,
