The Calm Before the Storm
Last Updated:
2025-07-27 15:00:55The Parisian sun, a soft, golden glow, streamed through the large windows of the villa, painting the bedroom in warm hues. It was their last morning in the city of love, and a bittersweet feeling hung in the air. Clara lay nestled in Devon’s arms, listening to the steady beat of his heart, wishing time could simply stop. The past few days had been a dream, a perfect bubble of peace and happiness. They had explored every charming street, laughed over countless cups of coffee, and shared whispered secrets under the twinkling lights of the Eiffel Tower. Her body felt stronger, the pain from her fall almost entirely gone, replaced by the gentle, reassuring flutters of the twins within her.
Devon stirred, his eyes opening slowly. He looked down at Clara, a tender smile touching his lips. He kissed her forehead, then her nose, then her lips, a soft, lingering kiss that spoke volumes. “Good morning, my love,” he murmured, his voice husky with sleep and affection. &

The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate The Return
Later that evening, as the Parisian sky deepened into a canvas of midnight blue, Devon found a quiet moment to call Nana. He knew she would be worried, perhaps even angry, after the way he left for his trip suddenly and then he didn’t inform her of exactly where Clara was. Clara was carrying the heirs of the Cage empire and Nana cared about that so much, the safety of both Clara and the twins mattered to her. He needed to smooth things over, at least enough to ensure a calm return for Clara because the news he had for the family was going to be a shocker to them, especially Nana, but he knew he had to do this, it was important he did but for now, he wanted to talk to his Nana and appeal to the love he knows she has for him. He walked out onto the villa’s balcony, the cool night air a sharp contrast to the warmth of the bedroom where Clara was already sleeping soundly, exhausted from their day of farewells.He dialed Nana’s number, hearing it ring a few times

The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate Lingering Shadows
The next few days were a blur of perfect moments. They slept in, waking up late to the scent of freshly brewed coffee and warm pastries. Devon insisted on bringing her breakfast in bed every morning, just as he had at his home. They spent their days wandering through the cobbled streets, hand in hand, like any other couple in love. They visited iconic landmarks – the Eiffel Tower, shimmering against the blue sky, the Louvre, with its endless treasures, the charming cafes where they sipped coffee and watched the world go by.Devon was attentive, charming, and utterly devoted. He made sure she was never tired, always stopping for breaks, finding comfortable spots for her to rest. He bought her little gifts, silly souvenirs, and beautiful pieces of jewelry.

She blossomed under his care, her worries fading into the background.
The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate Airport Encounter: Eva's Call
Devon and Clara stood in the exclusive lounge of the private airfield, the hum of the waiting jet a soft backdrop. Their bags were already loaded, and the final boarding call was moments away. Clara, still feeling the lingering apprehension of leaving their peaceful sanctuary, leaned into Devon’s side. He had just finished a quick call with Elliot, his jaw still tight with the frustration of James’s disappearance.Just as he was about to put his phone away, it vibrated again. He glanced at the screen, and a faint frown touched his brow. From the identity revealer app he had on his phone, it showed the name of the caller and it was Eva. He sighed inwardly. He didn’t want any distractions, especially not now. Clara noticed his expression.“Everything okay?” she whispered.“Just a nuisance call,” he murmured, giving her a reassuring squeeze. He answered, putting the phone to his ear. “Eva. To what do I owe the pleasur
The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate A Web of Lies and Departures
After what felt like an eternity, the elevator doors of Yvonne’s penthouse finally chimed, a soft, almost imperceptible sound in the suffocating silence. Yvonne, who had been huddled in a corner of the living room, staring at James’s lifeless form with wide, unblinking eyes, sprang to her feet. Her heart hammered against her ribs, a frantic, terrified drum. This was it. Her last hope.He moved with a quiet efficiency, his gaze sweeping over the opulent living room, settling for a brief, assessing moment on the still figure of James. He saw the spreading pool of blood, the overturned furniture, the raw panic etched on Yvonne’s face. He nodded, a slow, deliberate movement that seemed to acknowledge the entire chaotic scene without a single word.“The money,” he stated, his voice a low rumble, devoid of any emotion. He didn’t ask what happened, didn’t comment on the body. Just the money.Yvonne, despite the terror still gri
The Billionaire's Accidental Surrogate The Silence of the Penthouse
The silence in Yvonne’s penthouse was deafening, broken only by her ragged, desperate breaths. James lay on the plush carpet, unmoving, a dark, growing stain spreading beneath his head. The vase, still clutched in her trembling hand, felt impossibly heavy, slick with blood. Her heart pounded like a frantic drum against her ribs, a wild, terrified rhythm.She stared at him, her eyes wide with a horror that was both external and internal. What have I done? The thought screamed in her mind. One moment, he was a snarling, violating beast, and the next, he was… this. Lifeless. Still. A chilling, unblinking stare fixed on the ceiling.Her body was trembling uncontrollably, a violent shiver racking her from head to toe. She dropped the vase, and it clattered to the floor, the sound echoing like a gunshot in the sudden stillness. She stumbled backward, away from him, until her back hit the cold marble wall. Her legs gave out, and she slid down, collapsing onto the
