Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 26
When eight o'clock came, fully dressed in jeans and a simple blouse, Catherine was now fully awake, feeling a little crappy, exhausted, and restless. She was suddenly apprehensive about seeing Shawn today. However, she planned to go to work as usual in order to try and gather information about what the company was doing amid the lockdown. Obviously, the meeting would be online, and yet, here, she was not even sure how to start her day. But what does that mean for the vigorous issues between Shawn and her, anyway? What are they? Of course they were civil to each other, but she knew it was more than that. She had no clue, and by the time she dragged herself out of bed, she heard Eddie call out her name from the door. "Miss Catherine, um, sir, Mr. Richmond is waiting." "Thank you, Eddie," she shouted back. She hastily got herself together, hand-combed her hair, threw on some makeup, tied her hair in a loose ponytail, and raced down the stairs." "More coffee, Miss?" "Yes, thanks, Ed
Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 27
As Catherine rose from her seat and made her way to the door, she felt Shawn’s eyes on her. A part of her wanted to believe and trust him, while another part thought he just wanted to convince her otherwise so she could keep quiet about the scandal that Elizabeth had been telling the media about him. Those scandals obviously weren't even half the truth, and their multi-billion-dollar conglomerates were not on the verge of bankruptcy amid the pandemic. And yes, she was expecting him to tell her the truth about Elizabeth's blackmailing him, not just because his grandfather wanted him to settle soon. She was just waiting for him to open up to her. Not that she was expecting too much, but anyway, she was already married to him, so why not just go with the flow until she could give him a divorce? So Catherine, stop scowling, be a dear, and suck it up, she thought to herself. Oh, and then there is the third part that wants to just kiss him... Feel the warmth of his embrace. feel him buri
Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 28
At ten o'clock the next morning, Catherine was awakened and ushered by Eddie to the living room, where she asked for a small breakfast. Arriving in the grand living room, Catherine Brown, soon to be Catherine Richmond, was one of those obnoxiously attractive women who turned every head when she walked into a room. She had curly, glossy blonde hair, bottomless, deep cobalt eyes, and a perfect body that showed no signs of stress as she sauntered down the stairs. If they didn’t know her, they probably hated her. Or, at the very least, die of jealousy. And not only was she remarkable, but she was about to get married to one of the richest men in London. Jane thought that some people were just born lucky. "Oh, Catherine, what the hell happened to your eyes? You look dead. Where is the makeup artist? Cover that eye-bag girl." "They are on the way. I'm too tired and hungry to wait. I could use a fucking sandwich now," she replied as she yawned and looked around. "Here, girly, take this coo
Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 29
At five o'clock, Catherine was pacing her room. She had her wedding dress on; Chelsea and Jane were still in the living room with their hair and make-up, repeating the episode of so many complaints. She kept on pacing, except for the veil that would go on at the last minute. She was so committed to her pacing that she didn't notice Dave come into the room. Finally, he spoke. "Sis, are you OK?" She ignored him. Of course, she wasn't okay. Her mind was nowhere near sane. She heard him say again, "Come on, sis, calm down. You're scouring a hole in the carpet. Relax, you are so tense." She sighed. “I'm just so nervous. I... I did what you asked. I took a pregnancy test, and it's positive. Oh, God. What am I supposed to do now?" She stepped as fast as she could in the restrictive dress and wrapped her arms around her brother, hugging him tightly. "I don't know what to do now… are you mad at me?" "Of course not! But did you tell him?" Dave asked and let her sit at the edge of the bed.

Thirty minutes later, Shawn shook his head, trying to forget what Dave said before he went to the door. He decided to evaluate the reception at the ballroom instead. There was, at least, a bartender in the mini-bar behind the pink and white garland-covered area. He thought that the more he needed to have another drink, the more confused he got. Looking at the grandeur of the reception, he sighed and signalled a drink to the bartender. He sat at the white table and looked at the expensive flowers and sweet-scented candles. The bartender glanced up at him, then went back to his duties after giving him his drink and continuing his conversation with the man in a dark suit sitting on a stool at the minibar, drinking. Shawn saw no waitress. Everyone was busy in the reception main ballroom, but obviously someone had waited on the men in the booth, so he figured the waitress would be right back or the bartender would double and wait tables too. He looked up as someone cleared their throat n
Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 31
Since she was a child, Elizabeth Grant had known she would be the richest, most popular, and best-known among her group of privileged friends. Young Elizabeth had never had cause to ponder her own importance. Her early years had been a young girl’s perfection, right from the very day of her birth. It was true that Elizabeth was the heir to an old and affluent nobility, but unlike most other lordly families, her parents, Lord and Lady Grant, were an odd couple. Married without love, they hated each other to death. Both were resentful, rude, and selfish. They saw their daughter’s birth not as the arrival of an heir but rather as that of a child who would save their already failing business and wealth. And so there were celebrations, fêtes, and festivities other than those of a mother and father staring in wonderment at their new daughter. The Grants were young parents—Edward was barely twenty-two and Vivian had just turned twenty—but they were practical, ambitious, and strong, and the
Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 32
Shawn and Catherine were on edge a week later, after their extravagant wedding; they slept separately, ignored each other, and rarely spoke except during office hours. Catherine was fine with it; at least she wouldn't have to hide her situation from him. Thankfully, she had been having mild morning sickness. Catherine sighed. Today it was Monday morning, and Shawn had been swearing and yelling at his laptop while doing a Zoom meeting. Yet she looked at her husband, who was wearing his favourite white shirt and navy suit. That was a problem. She thought, not because he doesn’t look good in it. He absolutely does. For Catherine, Shawn was the hottest man in existence, and she was not saying that as his wife or because she was pregnant. Like, objectively, she didn't think a better-looking man existed. And he looked good in anything. Swim trunks, which were her favourite, sweats? He totally killed it in those khakis—he was a walking catalogue model. But when this man put on his designer s
Billionaire's Accidental Wife Chapter 33
Shawn questions his own naveté. Of course, Catherine would not allow it or agree with him if he made another contract, but his grandfather had been telling him about wanting to hold a grandchild soon, and he wanted nothing but to make the old man happy. After all, he would do everything to make him optimistic. Shawn knew he was dying, and he wanted to give him everything before his last breath. But somehow, money couldn't save a life. He had been born with a golden and silver spoon in his mouth, and even after his parents' accident, their memory had been too far away for him to remember. Still, he was more than delighted to be supervised by his grandfather. Since his parents had passed away for many years, he was never forced to economise because his grandfather owned a hefty sum of states and businesses, but everything would be useless if he couldn't give the old man his final request, right? And who was he to ignore his last wishes? Shawn sighed and explained, "Catherine, please re
