Eleven: Call me Jace
Jill
I froze like a Christmas tree and gawked as Jace rested his head on my shoulder. What was going on? Was this man crazy?
"Thank you." He broke the weird silence between us. "Thank you so much."
As he held my waist, and as there was barely an inch between us, my heart raced like I was about to be murdered. How could he seriously be hugging me? And also, why was he thanking me?
"M-mr. Flores?" I gripped in fear. "Is there something wrong? W-why are you so close to me?"
He flinched as he held me, and gasped like he realized something, opening his eyes widely like a drunk man who suddenly became sober.
"Miss Grayson." He called in almost a whisper. "I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry."
That was it. This man was a confused person, and was causing a confusion for me as well.
I lifted a brow at him,

Billionaire's Surrogate Twelve: Worked out
ShaniceWalking into Aiden's street in the late evening, I heaved out a sigh of tiredness.Life was a definition of "stress" to me. I had hardly had time for myself or even my family. All I did was to work from morning till night, or go on one errand or another. I hadn't even seen Aiden in a few days. I only hoped he wasn't going to be annoyed as usual. And most especially, I hoped he was at his place and not his dad's. He didn't give me any information on his location.In a really short while, I got to his apartment and halted at his door before knocking on it. I inhaled and checked myself really well. I didn't want my boyfriend to think he had a low class and dumb girlfriend when it came to dressing up.After a thorough check on myself, I pressed the doorbell and patiently waited for him to respond, tugging my bag against my arm in a little nervousness.
Billionaire's Surrogate Thirteen: The man
Jace"Hey Brittany, get all those files and take the rest of the day off." I announced to my secretary as I smiled hard, and stood up to get some books on my shelf.She remained in her posture, and acted like she was shocked by my statement. "S-sir. Are you sure of what you're saying?" Her tone was shaky.I twirled my neck to face her as she stood by my office door, and corked an eyebrow at her. "You heard me right? What else?"She gauged an anxious laughter. "Of course sir. I heard you. I mean, this is only two o'clock, and you want me to take the day off. You still have a lot of things to do."I chuckled at my young secretary and tucked my hands in my suit trouser pocket, walking to stand in front of her. I smiled at her unsteadiness as she stood, and lifted one of my hands to pat her shoulder."What's the problem? C
Billionaire's Surrogate Fourteen: Do you like my mom?
Jill's POV"Enjoy this ok?" I dropped a mini sized burger in front of Liam's small table and smiled as he licked his lips."This looks yummy mommy." He grinned like he just got a huge reward for doing something great. "Thank you."I bent to peck his cheek, "you're welcome," and made my way back to the kitchen to finish my cleanup.As I stepped into the kitchen, I felt a tingling pain by my lower abdomen. It felt like a menstrual pain, but a more critical one. And, I was so sure it couldn't be a monstral pain because I was pregnant.From my observation and thoughts, I could tell that it was as a result of the tiny thing I was carrying in my uterus. Sincerely, it was a complete inconvenience. Even though it was only a few weeks since I started to carry their child, it felt like a year already. How was I going to continue living like that till the
Billionaire's Surrogate Fifteen: I'll do it.
Staring confoundedly at him, the next thing I could think of was to burst into laughter. I seriously hadn't heard of such before. I was literally not the first surrogate on Earth. Why was I being treated like a child then?"Oh Mr Jace. Or whatever you call your name." I stopped laughing, and stretched my hand to poke his chest, causing him to flinch a little. "You're one crazy human. Swears.""Pardon?" He frowned a little.On seeing his eyebrows curving into that disgusting scowl of his, I got infuriated even more. How dare he get annoyed at me? Was he crazy?"Hey." My tone was almost in a shout, but I tried as much as possible to speak silently because of my sick mom. "Are you getting annoyed at me? Who are you? Do I even know your shit self? You want me to stay with you? What do you think will happen? You wanna try to…" I interrogated immensely, sounding so irritated. But before I coul
Billionaire's Surrogate Sixteen: Billionaire; Affluence
"So how long will you be gone?" My mom asked as she sipped slowly from her hot tea, sounding so weak.I swallowed hard, trembling like a lost child. "I'm not sure yet. All I know is that it'll take some months.""Is the training that long?" She dropped her tea on the side table, and fixed her gaze on me."Yes mom."She sighed. "But what will Liam do there? He wouldn't let you concentrate on your goal. Right?""That's not a problem at all." I hurried to sit on the space beside her on the bed. "I'll be completely fine with him around. There's no need for you to worry about that. And once he turns five, he'll start school.""I really wish he could stay here with me." She sounded sad, her face suddenly turning so pale. "I'm going to miss you guys so much.""Awww." I moved forward to embrace her gently. "We'll miss you too. And I p
Billionaire's Surrogate Seventeen: What's going on?
Shanice"Here you go babe." I handed a tray of cookies to Beth, and sauntered to get a fashion magazine from my kitchen's counter.She dropped her phone on the side table, and smiled at me. "Thanks girl.""You're welcome."After grabbing the magazine she requested, I walked to sit in the space beside her on the sofa in my small living room. "Here it is." I dropped the magazine on her lap."Hmmm," She stuffed her mouth with some of my homemade chocolate cookies. "This magazine is superb. I like the cover already. Where did you get it from?""Err," I grimaced at her, trying to recall where I had bought the magazine. "Not sure." I informed her.She rolled her eyes like she always did, and dropped the magazine on the table. "Why do you always forget things Shanice? Is your brain in your skull or in your butt?" She
Billionaire's Surrogate Eighteen: Home again
Jill"But what is his reason for that?" I asked Shanice the same question, and she grumbled over the phone."I said I don't know!" She whined like she was about to get angry. "I only spoke to him about Beth and he took it so seriously. I'm so devastated right now."I sighed, "Alright girl, I'll come to see you this evening. I need to know more details on this. It's so weird for him to get annoyed for something that's not even his business.""I know right?" She retorted. "I wonder why he keeps on doing this. Was I wrong by only explaining my annoyance to him? Why does Aiden keep on treating me like shit? It isn't fair you know? I'm sick of it already.""Come down babe." I tried to keep her calm because I was so sure she'd be about to cry already. Although she was a crazy type of person, she was damn emotional. "Everything will be ok. I'm sure he was on
Billionaire's Surrogate Nineteen: His Wife, His Surrogate.
I bit hard against my lower lip as my head seemed like it was going to explode, due to my irk state. My cold and shaky fingers rolled into a keen fist and begged me to hit it against someone's face. The silent air that left my nose suddenly developed into heavy pants. Tugging my tightened fingers close to the pocket of my jacket, I snorted."Jace!" A cry unknowingly spilled from my mouth as I turned to my husband. "What is this inane thing doing here? How can she be here?!" My throat bit that out at the top of my voice.He sighed and looked scared as I had expected. "I know you might not like this, but I need you to cooperate with me in this. She's…""Enough!" I cut him in, raising my index finger to point it at his face. "What level are you taking this to? Did you bring her here to comfort you in the month that I've been gone? What are you trying to do, you git?!" My words made him look scared, and wo
