“No,” Tiffany said suddenly. “Please don’t call 911. I don’t want him to go to jail.”

My brows furrowed. Where else did she expect him to go? Back into her arms?

No way.

Emris was confused.

He had already tied Blake’s hands and legs, his foot pressed firmly against him to keep him from moving.

“Let the police handle him," I said firmly.

“No!” She cried. “Please. I promise he won’t come here again.”

I let out a frustrated breath, dragging my hand through my hair. Tessa has already p

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    The Final Exam

    Arielle “Right, where’s my phone?” Tessa asked, getting up even though she could barely feel her legs. I also stood, searching for mine. Finally, I found our phones further away, where Tiffany had left her bag. I checked the time. 8:30 p.m.“I’ll call Darius to come pick us up.” As I squinted at the screen, trying to search for his number with my tired eyes, Tessa suddenly snatched the phone from my hand. “Remember when you said you didn’t want to let him know your plans for tonight?”“What? I said that?” I raised my hair, trying to think.“An hour ago, you said he’s been acting weird around you, like he’s hiding something from you. So you said you didn’t want him to know your plans for tonight.”I rubbed my eyes slowly. “Right. Of course. Thank you, Tessa. You’re a lifesaver.”“I’ll call an Uber to take us home.”“Are you two fighting?” Summer asked while staring at the sky. “No, I wouldn’t call it a fight. It’s just…I can’t really tell what’s going on with him. He’s been dist

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    Before Forever

    Arielle I was so mad. I wanted to pull her hair and kick her with my heels nonstop. How dare she blame me for all her mistakes?“You think I don’t know Tiffany’s alive?” Sylvia asked. I stopped. Then I stood. “So what if you know?”Sylvia chuckled. “What I’m trying to say is that I didn’t mean to kill her. Ryder just went out of hand.”“Okay. I’m done here.”I grabbed my purse and walked out of her office. I couldn’t keep listening to her excuses. She had never once blamed herself or even shown remorse. Such a cunning bitch!Darius joined me in the car shortly after Nathan drove out of the place. I was still furious when we got home, I didn’t even wait for Darius. I walked inside and straight upstairs. I pulled off my heels and bounced angrily onto the bed. I closed my eyes in complete frustration. Why had I gone to her place in the first place?Why did she have to mention the past she had with Darius? Did she still love him?Gosh. When Darius lowered his eyes earlier, I had st

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    Sylvia’s Version

    Arielle “Would you still love me?” I asked again, my voice softer this time.Darius gently tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “At the end of the day…yes. It’s always going to be you.”“Hmm.”“I didn’t fall in love with Leonard Hills’ daughter,” he continued. “I fell in love with you.”A smile slowly spread across my face. Darius once loved me because I was Leonard’s daughter. But now, he loved me despite Leonard being my father. “Babe, have you seen yourself?” He asked, his voice turning playful. “Fucking gorgeous.”I laughed softly. I guess I’d finally corrupted him. “And to add to that,” he added. “I wouldn’t have existed if I were not meant for you.”“Hmmmm. Come here,” I pulled his face toward mine and kissed him tenderly. Oh, dear. We had forgotten that we were still in the car. And Nathan was still sitting in the driver's seat, listening to everything we had been saying.“That’s enough.” I tried to pull away, but Darius wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me bac

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    Would You Still Love Me, Darius?

    ArielleDarius’s eyes widened. “That’s what it says, right?”Somehow, I nodded. What the fuck?“Why does she want to apologize?” I asked. He shrugged. My thoughts spiraled. Why would she?I mean—she had kidnapped me. She had mistreated me since the day I started working at her diner. She had nearly killed me and landed both of my friends in the hospital simply because she couldn’t let things go.There was no forgiveness in that.Besides, Sylvia was never the type to suddenly change. She was definitely manipulating us. She thought she was. “I’ll just cancel—““No,” I cut him off sharply. “Tell her we agree.”His brows furrowed. “You sure?”“Yes,” I handed the phone back to him. “Tell her we’ll see her at her diner at six tomorrow.”His eyes widened slightly. “Are you sure? This is Sylvia. We can obviously tell she’s lying.”I nodded. “I know. But I just want to hear what she has to say.”She might know something I needed. And if Ryder heard about this, he might just piss himself.I

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    The Truth I Wanted; The Mother I Hated

    Arielle Ryder smiled at me before leaning forward. I was so ready to finally hear the truth. “If you want to know the details,” he said slowly. “Set up a meeting with your mother. Tell her you want to speak with her.”My face remained. My mother. “How..how did you know that?” I asked, my eyes narrowing. He sighed heavily and turned toward the window, the sunlight catching the faint smile on his face. “I was there with you and Darius’s mother at Cedar’s kitchen.”My eyes widened. “You saw my mother?”He nodded. Knowing Leo’s name was definitely easy for him, so knowing Darius’s mother was way easier. His parents partnered with my father. “I also saw how you reacted when she tried to touch you.”My jaw tightened. “Go easy on her,” he added. “She’s doing her best.”I looked away. Why was he defending Vivienne? “She’s entirely different from your father.”I swallowed hard. The silence that followed felt heavier than before. Why did every answer I wanted somehow lead back to my

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    What Is Mr. Planning?

    Arielle A laugh escaped me the moment he said it. Was he nuts? His twin? “You have a twin?” Darius asked. “Yes,” Ryder replied. “He drives an X3.” My mouth fell open. “He drives an X3?” Ryder nodded. “And it wasn’t black. It was blue.” He paused before adding. “We bought them at the same time on our twenty-ninth birthday. Last week.” My eyes slowly widened. “But you look exactly alike.” “That’s usually how twins work.” I stared at him. Whoa, what the fuck? I turned toward Darius. “Don't tell me you actually believe him.” Darius said nothing, but his eyes did. “It makes so much sense, though.” He believed him. I dragged a hand through my hair in frustration and faced the window. I couldn’t believe I was standing there trying to figure out whether the man I’d seen outside my house was Ryder or his twin. “What the fuck am I even doing here?” I muttered. Darius continued questioning him, but I barely listened. It was too much to process. “I’m done

    Arielle Tiffany turned back and went silent. “It’s me,” I tapped my chest. “Arielle”. “Oh”. She uttered flatly. “Yeah,” I sighed. “Tiffany, I swear I’m ready to tell you anything you want to know. I’m never hiding anything from–“ “Let’s not talk about that here.” She
