Billionaire's Admirable Bride

17th years ago;

Leo Adams had married Zoe Nelson, and she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl with sparkling brown eyes named Olima Adams. But after Olima's birth, Zoe had complications.

Zoe cried as she wanted to give her husband more children, but he assured her that his love for her wouldn't change.

Two years later, Leo spoke to his wife about his intention to marry a second wife who would give him more children, especially a son who would inherit all his properties and bear his name, instead of going out to adopt a son, as Olima was a girl.

Zoe became emotional and afraid of another woman coming into her home and turning her husband's heart against her, so she spoke to her best friend, Gina Edwards, to accept and marry her husband.

Zoe and Gina had been best friends in the past, as they attended the same high school and lived on the island where the billionaire families lived. They were still friends even after Zoe got married.

Zoe never knew that Gina secretly admired her husband, and she proposed to Gina to accept and marry her husband, Leo.

Gina wasted no time and accepted the marriage, moving into the white mansion to live with them.

But as Gina arrived at the home, she changed and started quarreling with Zoe.

Gina told Zoe to leave the master bedroom so that she and Leo could use it, since Zoe couldn't give Leo another child.

Leo was shocked at Gina's change in attitude, as she dared to quarrel with Zoe and even called Zoe a witch for refusing to leave the master bedroom.

Leo got annoyed and threatened to divorce Gina the following day, but Gina calmed down and switched back to the good friend she had been to Zoe. She begged Zoe to plead with their husband not to divorce her.

Leo told Gina, "How dare you come into my house today and quarrel with your best friend, Zoe? I regret marrying you, Gina, and Olima will inherit all my properties tomorrow. Even if she gets married and changes her surname to her husband's, she will still be my daughter. So get ready to leave my house tomorrow, as our marriage is over!"

Gina begged Zoe to plead with their husband not to divorce her, and Zoe sighed, as she was the one who had begged Gina to accept and marry her husband.

Zoe pleaded with Leo on Gina's behalf, and Gina stayed in the mansion with them, but in a separate bedroom.

Gina hated Zoe from that day onward. She avoided speaking with Zoe and felt that probably Zoe and their husband, Leo had conspired to marry her and bring her into the mansion just to show her how lovely a couple they were.

---

One day, Gina went into Zoe's room and pleaded with Zoe to allow their husband to spend a night with her, since that was why Leo had married her too.

Zoe waited for Leo to arrive home that night, and she spoke to him, asking him to spend the night with Gina in her bedroom, to see if Gina would give him a son, as that was the reason he married Gina.

Leo refused, as he was avoiding Gina and didn't want to have anything to do with Gina, since he regretted marrying her. But after Zoe sent him away from their room, Leo had no other option than to spend the night in Gina's bedroom, and he made love to Gina.

----

A month later, Gina was still jealous, and she continued hating Zoe after seeing that Leo loved Zoe much more than her. She had thought that Leo would love only her and abandon Zoe for her inability to give him more children.

But Leo rather abandoned Gina, as he refused to eat Gina's food and avoided her too.

Gina quarreled with Zoe again, which made Leo annoyed, and he finally brought home the divorce papers.

Leo ordered Gina to sign the divorce papers, but Gina refused, telling her husband, "I'm pregnant."

Leo couldn't send Gina away with his child growing in her womb, so he allowed Gina to stay in his mansion with them, but on one condition: Gina would start living in the boys' quarters, away from the white mansion, and Gina would not quarrel with Zoe again.

Gina accepted, as she had no other option and didn't want to leave the house either.

Eight months later, Gina gave birth to a baby girl named Mia Adams, but Leo never came to her again to see if they could still have more children, and most importantly, a son.

----

Fourteen years later, Gina's hatred for Leo and Zoe grew worse, as it was only once in her fourteen years of marriage that Leo dared to touch her and make love to her, claiming that he regretted marrying her.

Gina knew that she couldn't leave Leo's house to remarry, as the townspeople already mocked her for accepting to marry her best friend's husband, and her parents hadn't supported her marrying Leo at first. But Gina had thought that Leo would love her, but he didn't and rather avoided her.

Gina knew that if she went out and got pregnant to see if she could give Leo a son, Leo would know that the son wasn't his. He only accepted Mia to live in the main mansion with them whenever Mia wanted, simply because Mia was his biological daughter, and Olima wanted a younger sister to play with.

Gina's heart turned cold, and she contacted a truck driver who rammed into Leo and his wife's car, as she knew they were going the high school for the graduation ceremony of Mia and Olima.

Olima was graduating from college, while Mia was going into a senior class.

Gina later confirmed with the driver about his successful job, and she killed the truck driver too, to hide her secret for life.

Three Months after the burial ceremony ended, Gina first moved back into the main mansion that her late husband and his admirable wife had sent her away from. And she sacked the two maids and turned Olima into her servant, withdrawing Olima from her tutorial class.

Their family members, who had been silent, started visiting the main mansion to know who would take over the late Leo's wealth and oil company. But Gina was a brutal woman, and she had her in-laws arrested, accusing them of being the ones who killed her late husband and his admirable wife, Zoe.

The arrested in-laws had to bail themselves out, and they signed an undertaking never to disturb Gina and her family again.

Gina later contacted Leo's lawyer to know about Leo's will, as Gina remembered that Leo had told her that Olima would inherit all his properties.

Gina could have killed Olima too, but she didn't want her only daughter Mia to be alone in the big house and without a sister. So Gina decided not to kill Olima, instead turning Olima into her lifetime maid, knowing that no one would come to Olima's rescue.

When the lawyer arrived, he told Gina, "Leo's will cannot be changed. The will states that the oil company should be given to Olima Adams, but only when Olima finally turns twenty-four years old."

Gina got annoyed and sent the lawyer away, and she thought of how she could change the will to make it her own and her daughter's property alone.
