All Chapters of The Billionaire’s Christmas Surprise : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Thomas Winters sat in the dimly lit VIP lounge of an upscale hotel, his fingers tightening around the glass of whiskey he had barely touched. The leather booth he sat in was isolated from the rest of the room, providing the perfect setting for a private conversation—one he wasn’t particularly looking forward to. Across from him, Kate Andrews sat with her arms crossed, legs elegantly crossed at the knee, her expensive designer dress clinging to her body. Her face was perfectly made up, but the anger simmering beneath her cold, sharp gaze was unmistakable. She had just heard the news, and she wasn’t taking it well. “She won?” Kate hissed, her voice laced with disbelief and fury. Thomas exhaled sharply, setting his glass down on the marble tabletop. “Yes, Kate. She won.” Kate scoffed, shaking her head in frustration. “Unbelievable. You promised me that she would be gone. You said the board was already in our hands. And yet, somehow, Serena still manages to slip through like a da

The massive Winters Mansion was eerily quiet, save for the soft echo of Margaret Winters’ heels clicking against the polished marble floor as she paced restlessly across the grand living room. Her hands were tightly clasped around her phone, her brows furrowed in deep thought. A mix of frustration and unease coiled in her stomach, making it impossible to sit still. She had spent the entire day trying to push away the nagging suspicion that had lodged itself in her mind after that mysterious text message. But no matter how hard she tried, it wouldn’t leave her alone. She brought the phone to her ear, sighing as the familiar voice of her closest friend, Eleanor Harrington, filled the silence. “Margaret, darling, you sound stressed,” Eleanor said, her voice laced with curiosity. “What’s the matter?” Margaret exhaled, rubbing her temple. “I don’t know, Eleanor… I just have this terrible feeling. Something isn’t right.” Eleanor hummed. “Is this about Thomas?” Margaret hesitated. “

The luxurious private resort Thomas had arranged for Kate was nothing short of paradise. Nestled along the pristine coastline, the secluded five-star retreat boasted sprawling white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and exclusive villas designed for the elite. Kate had woken up that morning to the soft sound of waves crashing against the shore, the golden rays of the sun filtering through the floor-to-ceiling windows of her lavish beachfront suite. She stretched lazily in the massive king-sized bed, the silk sheets cool against her skin. The scent of fresh flowers filled the air, mingling with the salty ocean breeze that drifted in from the open balcony doors. For the first time in days, she felt truly pampered—free from the stress of dealing with Serena, free from the constant need to fight for her place in Ryan’s life. Sitting up, she reached for the silver tray of breakfast that had been delivered to her suite—a decadent spread of fresh fruits, pastries, and a steaming cu

The private jet touched down smoothly at Los Angeles International Airport, its engines humming as it taxied down the runway. The sun was beginning to set, casting a golden glow over the city skyline. Thomas Winters exhaled, adjusting his cufflinks as the plane came to a full stop. The moment the door opened, Marcus Sterling was already at the bottom of the stairs, speaking with the driver of a sleek black Rolls-Royce that awaited Thomas’s arrival. “Welcome back, sir. We are heading straight to the Winters mansion right?” Marcus asked smoothly as Thomas stepped off the plane. Thomas barely acknowledged him, sliding into the back seat of the waiting car. “ I won’t be going home tonight. I need some time alone, some time away from home. Take me to the resort instead,” he ordered, his tone leaving no room for discussion. Marcus raised an eyebrow but nodded, stepping aside as the driver shut the door behind him. The car pulled away from the airport, seamlessly merging onto the f

The internet exploded within minutes. The first anonymous post came from a gossip blog, one known for breaking the biggest scandals in the city. The image was blurred just enough, but the context was unmistakable—two naked bodies, tangled in silk sheets, caught in what was obviously a compromising position. Their faces were obscured, but the caption beneath it sent the world into a frenzy. “Two of the most influential people in Los Angeles caught in a scandalous affair—if only their significant others knew. The truth will come out soon.” It took less than an hour for the image to spread like wildfire. Celebrity gossip pages, news outlets, online forums, and social media platforms were flooded with speculations. The comment sections were on fire, people throwing out guesses, dissecting the image, analyzing every inch of what was visible. “This has to be someone high-profile. Look at the setting! That bed screams billionaire money!” “Whoever these two are… one of them defini
