A SURROGATE TO MY BILLIONAIRE EX HUSBAND Chapter 124: The fear of losing her
Alexander povEverything happened too fast.One second she was standing there.The next she was covered in blood.The image refused to leave my head.Even as I carried her toward the car.Even as the staff scrambled around us.Even as Ryder opened the back door.The image remained.The blood.Her pale face.The way her fingers weakly grabbed my sleeve.Save the baby.I tightened my jaw.No.I wasn’t going to lose either of them.“Celyne.”She didn’t respond.Her head rested against my chest as I climbed into the vehicle beside her.“Drive.”Ryder didn’t waste a second.The car sped away from the mansion.I looked down at her.She looked fragile.Too fragile.Her breathing was shallow.Her skin was cold.And there was far too much blood.My hands tightened around hers.“You don’t get to do this.”Nothing.No response.The silence terrified me more than I wanted to admit.For years I convinced myself I no longer cared.For years I buried every feeling connected to her.Now, sitting here
A SURROGATE TO MY BILLIONAIRE EX HUSBAND Chapter 123: Not Again
Celyne povThe strange thing about getting what you ask for is realizing it doesn’t always feel the way you imagined. Ever since the night in the library, Alexander had done exactly what I wanted. Exactly. He kept his distance. No unnecessary conversations. No surprise visits. No attempts to hold my hand. No questions about how I was feeling. Nothing. The space I had demanded was finally mine. So why wasn’t I happy? I stood by my bedroom window, staring out at the gardens below. The morning sun stretched across the estate, making everything look peaceful. Beautiful. Normal. A complete lie. Just like the smile I forced onto my face every day. I sighed and wrapped my arms around myself. Maybe this was what I deserved. Maybe this was what I had asked for. After all, I was the one who t
A SURROGATE TO MY BILLIONAIRE EX HUSBAND Chapter 122: One last chance
Damien povIt had been weeks. Or maybe months. At this point, I wasn’t even sure anymore. Time had become strange ever since the last time I saw Celyne. Every day felt longer. Every thought seemed to lead back to her. And every decision became harder than the last. I stood by the window of my apartment, staring down at the city below. Cars moved through the streets. People went about their lives. Normal lives. Simple lives. I almost envied them. Because nothing about my life felt simple anymore. Especially not where Celyne was concerned. I hadn’t called her. I hadn’t texted her. And she hadn’t reached out either. Maybe that was for the best. Maybe distance was exactly what we both needed. Yet somehow I couldn’t stop thinking about her. The way she looked at me during our l
A SURROGATE TO MY BILLIONAIRE EX HUSBAND Chapter 121: Not this time
Alexander povThe mansion was unusually quiet.Too quiet.I sat alone in my room, staring at the glass of whiskey on the table.Untouched.My thoughts were elsewhere.On her.Thinking, something is wrong somewhereA frustrated sigh escaped my lips.Did she really think I joined them for dinner?The moment I returned to the mansion, I went looking for her.Her room was empty.At first, I assumed she was downstairs.Then I checked the dining room.Nothing.No sign of her.It wasn’t until I found her in the library that everything started making sense.The library.I hadn’t stepped into that room in years.Honestly, I thought she had forgotten about it.Just like I thought she had forgotten about a lot of things.Apparently, I was wrong.I leaned back against the chair and rubbed my temples.Lately, something had been different about her.More than usual.Whenever I looked at her, she seemed distracted.Lost.Like part of her wasn’t even here anymore.Like her body occupied the room, but
A SURROGATE TO MY BILLIONAIRE EX HUSBAND Chapter 120: Between us
Celyne povThe dining room was probably full by now.Vivian.Elara.Alexander.The same faces.The same conversations.The same reminders.I couldn’t do it.Not tonight.For the first time since returning to the Hale mansion, I decided to skipped dinner.No excuses.No explanations.I simply stayed away.Instead, I found myself standing in front of a room I hadn’t entered in years.The library.A place everyone seemed to have forgotten.A place nobody visited anymore.I had overheard the staff talking about converting it into a storage room someday.Boxes.Old furniture.Unused decorations.Apparently books no longer mattered in this house.I pushed the door open and stepped inside.The familiar scent of paper greeted me immediately.Dust floated through the air.The room was quiet.Peaceful.Safe.At least safer than everywhere else in this mansion.This place had always been my escape.Whenever reality became too heavy.Whenever arguments became too loud.Whenever life became too mu

Vivian povThe moment Celyne stepped through the front doors of the mansion, I had a feeling something was wrong somewhereAlexander wasn’t with her.Interesting.What could he be up to now.Hope is not doing one of this gamesAfter everything that happened lately, I had expected him to return with her.Instead, she walked in alone.Tired.Quiet.Lost in thought.Like she couldn’t get her mind off somethingAlmost as though she had left a piece of herself somewhere else.My eyes narrowed.“Where is Alexander?”She stopped and looked at me.“He went back to work.”Of course he did.Alexander always buried himself in work whenever his emotions became inconvenient.I folded my arms.“Work?”“Yes.”did he tell you when he will be backNo he didn’t she repliedA small smile touched my lips.“I see.”Something had happened today.I didn’t know what.But I intended to find out.“Walk with me.”For a second she seemed surprised.Then she nodded.“Okay.”Together we stepped outside into the co

A SURROGATE TO MY BILLIONAIRE EX HUSBAND Chapter Twenty Three: You Never Saw Me
Clara POVThe room was quiet. Too quiet, even for my liking. But I liked it that way. Silence was easier to control. Easier to think in. Easier to remember.I sat at my desk, hands folded neatly, my gaze drifting to the dark screen of my phone. Nothing. Still nothing. Perfect. Patience was a virtue
