THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 44: Legacy or love
Chloe woke to the sound of Damian moving quietly in the living room, the low murmur of his voice as he spoke on the phone filtering through the cracked bedroom door. She lay still for a moment, one hand on her belly where the twins shifted lazily, the ache from yesterday’s contractions still lingering like a warning. The clock on the nightstand read just after six. The board meeting was hours away, but he was already dressed in a crisp charcoal suit, tie loose around his neck as he paced near the windows. She pushed herself up slowly, ignoring the protest in her back, and padded out to him. “You’re really risking everything?” she asked, voice soft in the quiet penthouse. “The company your father built. The board vote. All of it. For us.” Damian turned, ending the call mid-sentence. His eyes softened the moment they landed on her, but the tension in his shoulders stayed tight. “Yes. I told you last night. I’m done letting that legacy control me. You and the twins are my future. Not s
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 43: Empire or love
Chloe sat on the edge of the bed in the secure penthouse, one hand pressed to her belly as Damian held the phone between them on speaker. His mother’s voice slithered through the room like smoke. “Divorce her, Damian. End this embarrassment. Vanessa will drop the custody nonsense. The board will back off, The company survives. It’s the rational choice.” Chloe’s fingers dug harder into her stomach. The twins shifted restlessly under her palm, as if they could hear the poison in every word. She looked up at Damian, waiting. He didn’t hesitate. “I’m done choosing the family that broke me. You, Father, Marcus you destroyed anything good that ever touched this name. Chloe isn’t a problem to solve. She’s my wife. She’s the mother of my children. I’m not divorcing her. I’m not giving Vanessa anything. Burn the company if you have to. I don’t care.” The line went silent for a beat. Then his mother’s laugh came through, cold and sharp. “You’ll regret this when you have nothing left.”
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 42: FLOUR AND FURY
Chloe pushed open the bakery door with one hand, the other resting protectively on her belly as the familiar bell chimed above her. The smell of warm bread, vanilla, and sugar hit her like a wave, wrapping around her tighter than any hug. For the first time in weeks, something felt almost normal. Almost hers again. The two remaining staff members looked up from behind the counter, their faces lighting up with relief mixed with worry. “Chloe! You’re here. We didn’t think you’d make it in with everything going on.” She managed a tired smile, moving slowly behind the counter. “I needed to see it. To be here. Even if it’s just for a little while.” The display cases were half-empty. Flour dust coated surfaces that should have been spotless. The health inspection stickers still marred the front window. Her heart squeezed at how much had been lost in such a short time. She tied on an apron, the fabric stretching over her belly, and started measuring ingredients for a small batch of cookie
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 40: NO MORE HIDING
Damian stood over the kitchen island in the secure penthouse, the anonymous note still clutched in his hand. The block letters burned into his vision: "The twins will never be safe as long as you’re with him."Fury coiled tight in his chest, hot and unrelenting, pushing against the fear that had settled there since Chloe’s early contractions. He glanced toward the bedroom where she rested, monitors beeping faintly through the cracked door. She needed sleep more than she needed to see this fresh poison right now.He pulled out his phone and dialed the lead investigator, voice low and sharp when the man picked up. “Find the hospital insider now. The one who fed information to Marcus. I want a name, financial trail, everything. Cross-reference with the shell companies we already flagged. Do it quietly but fast. The hearing is days away.”“Working on it, sir,” the investigator replied. “We’re pulling phone records and access logs from the last month. I’ll have something by morning.”Damian
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 39: HOME WARD
The door to the waiting area burst open down the hall. Damian looked up to see his mother trying to slip past security, designer coat draped over her arm like she belonged there.“I’m family,” she insisted, voice carrying. “I have a right to be here for my grandchildren.”Damian stood instantly, releasing Chloe’s hand only long enough to stride into the hallway and block his mother’s path completely. His voice dropped to a dangerous low. “Get out. Now. You don’t get to play concerned grandmother after everything you’ve done. The poison, the cameras, the court games, the sabotage.... you’re the reason we’re here fighting early labor. Touch that door and I’ll have you arrested. You’re no family to us. Not anymore.”Security moved in on his signal. His mother’s eyes narrowed with cold fury, but she let them escort her away, tossing one last barb over her shoulder. “You’ll regret choosing her when the company falls.”Damian didn’t watch her leave. He turned and went straight back to Chloe
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 38: THE ONLY MOTHER
Chloe sat rigid in the sleek conference room chair, one hand pressed firmly against the side of her belly while the other gripped the armrest until her knuckles ached. The neutral location Vanessa’s lawyers had chosen felt anything but neutral—sterile glass walls, expensive leather seats, and a long table that might as well have been a battlefield. Damian sat beside her, his knee pressed against hers under the table, a silent anchor.Vanessa leaned back in her chair across from them, lips curved in a smug smile as she slid a fresh folder across the polished surface. “The real, untampered results, From an independent lab I chose myself. Read them. The embryos were switched. Those twins were always meant to be mine and Damian’s. You were just the rented oven, Chloe. A convenient one with the right family connection to make it messy.”Chloe snatched the folder before Damian could reach for it. Her eyes scanned the pages, heart pounding harder with every line. Genetic markers. Probability

Damian walked into the living room and found Chloe hunched over her phone on the couch, shoulders curled inward as tears dropped onto the screen. The leaked “ideal type” folder glowed in her hands, those cruel edited photos staring back.“Was I just the backup plan all along?” she asked, voice brea
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 13:
Damian hung up on Vanessa and tossed the phone onto the table. “She claims she has DNA proof the twins are hers. She’s on her way here now. I told her to come so we end this face to face.”Chloe pushed back from the table, one hand on her belly. “Good. Let her say it to both of us.”They waited in
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 12: THE PRIZE
Damian stepped between his mother and the hallway leading to Chloe’s suite the second Mrs. King tried to move past him. “Stay away from her.”His mother arched a perfect brow, lips thinning. “This doesn’t concern you, darling. The girl and I need to settle things like adults.”Chloe appeared behind
THE BILLIONAIRE PLUS SIZE SURROGATE CHAPTER 11: NO MORE HIDING
Damian walked into his office and found Chloe frozen at his desk, the new custody papers clutched in her hands. Her face had gone completely white. “You said you burned the old one,” she accused, voice cracking as she thrust the documents toward him. “This is worse. Supervised visits? I forfeit ev
