Breakfast felt like the longest one Devon had ever had. Each clink of cutlery, each soft murmur of conversation around the grand dining table, felt amplified, stretching the minutes into an eternity. The news of Yvonne staying with them at the family house was not something he saw coming at all. It hit him like a cold splash of water, right in the face. Yvonne, here. In his space. In their space.

What would that even mean for his and Clara’s new, very secret love? His gaze kept flicking to Clara, who sat across from him, picking at her toast with a quiet grace that only made him want to pull her closer, shield her from the sudden complication that was Yvonne. He could feel Yvonne’s eyes on them, a possessive, calculating stare that made his skin crawl. He just wanted this breakfast to be over, to get Clara out of here, away from the suffocating tension.

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate   A Seat at the Table, A Knife Behind the Back

    Morning came fast. The sun was already high in the sky when everyone started coming downstairs one by one. The house was quiet, but there was this thick air, like something heavy was hanging in the room. Nobody really knew what was going to happen between Damien and Eva after the fight last night. But deep down, they all hoped for the best.Clara walked slowly down the stairs too. She had barely slept, her heart was heavy from everything going on. She tried to act normal as she sat down at the long dining table. Yvonne was already seated beside Devon, her usual perfect smile on her face. Everyone was at the table, ready to eat. But the food wasn’t even touched when a voice echoed from the hallway.“Good morning, everyone.”Heads turned immediately. It was Eva. She walked in, looking calm and collected, with a man beside her.Everyone stood up slowly, eyes wide in surprise as they moved to the living room. No one said a word at first as they watched Eva step into the living room. She w

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate   Behind Closed Doors

    After everyone had gone to their rooms, Devon and Yvonne walked upstairs together in awkward silence. The tension from dinner was still thick between them, and neither knew what to say.In Devon's room, he got into the shower first to freshen up and afterwards Yvonne went straight in. She had borrowed some clothes from Elise earlier, after Nana asked her to stay the night. As she changed into the soft cotton pajamas, she tried to push away the thoughts that were eating at her. The way Devon had defended Clara tonight. The way he had looked at her when he said she was the mother of his children.When Yvonne came out of the bathroom, she found Devon putting on his pyjama jacket, clearly getting ready to leave the room."Where are you going?" she asked, trying to keep her voice casual.Devon paused at the door, his hand on the handle. He turned to look at her with cold eyes. "I'm not a child, Yvonne. I don't need to be questioned about where I go in my own h

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate   When Masks Fall Off

    The Montgomery family's car pulled into their driveway in complete silence. The tension from the dinner was still thick in the air, and nobody knew what to say. Eva stared out the window, her mind racing with thoughts of Devon and Clara and everything that had gone wrong tonight.The moment they stepped into their living room, Eva turned around to face her parents. She was about to say something when her father's hand came down hard across her cheek.SLAP!The sound echoed through the house like a gunshot. Eva's hand flew to her cheek, her eyes wide with shock and pain. Her mother gasped, covering her mouth with both hands."Robert!" her mother screamed. "What are you doing?"Eva's cousins had just walked through the front door, still in their work clothes. They had been dealing with a work emergency all day, which was why they couldn't make it to the dinner. They froze when they saw what had happened.Everyone was shocked. Robert Montgomery

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate   When Secrets Explode

    The silence that followed Devon's announcement was deafening. Everyone sat frozen at the dinner table, forks halfway to their mouths, eyes wide with shock. The Montgomery family looked like they had just been slapped.Mr. Montgomery was the first to recover. He slowly put down his fork and turned to Richard Cage, his voice tight with confusion and anger."Mr. Cage," he said, his words coming out slow and deliberate. "What does your son mean by that? How is some other woman carrying his child when he has a fiancée and isn't married yet?"Richard felt every eye at the table turn to him. He sighed deeply, how could he explain this mess? How could he explain the situation to the Montgomery’s."Well, you see..." Richard started, but Eva cut him off."Is Yvonne sterile?" Eva asked bluntly, her voice sharp and cutting through the tension like a knife."What!" Yvonne exclaimed, her face turning red with embarrassment and anger. "How dare you! Of course I'm not sterile!"The table erupted into

    Eva walked into the Cage family home with her chin held high. Her mom was right behind her, This was it. The dinner that would seal her future with the Cage family."Eva darling," her mom whispered as they stepped into the grand living room. Eva turned away from Clara, and walked straight to Nana Cage. Her mom’s call was like a wakeup call from the drama she just displayed walking into the house and straight to Clara."Good evening to you, Mrs. Cage," Eva said with her most charming smile.Nana looked at her with kind eyes. "And a good evening to you too, dear."From across the room, Damien watched Eva closely. He had to admit, she looked like someone who could handle herself. At first glance, she seemed like a fighter. Someone who wouldn't take nonsense from anyone. He was glad he had someone like that on his side.Eva's parents moved around the room, shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries. Everyone was being polite. Then she saw Yvonne. She didn't know her personally, but she had
