“Avery dear, please read this out to me. I can't find my glasses” Ma Jane said, handing over her phone to me. I looked at her screen and saw that it was a message from dad.

“It's from dad,” I said.

“Read it out”

“Hey Jane," I began

“Hope you had a lovely day. I just wanted to say thank you for all you've done for me and Avery. You brought so much joy and warmth to our lives”

I paused, glancing up at Ma Jane who was listening intently. I could sense the mood in the room shift.

“Your kindness mea

  • The Billionaire's contract    Chapter 165. July Seventeenth

    Ethan and I sat across Micheal at the dinner table, while mom kept Jenkins in the living room. I noticed Ethan's absentmindedness. He took a bite, chewed slowly and then measured for a lingering moment. It felt like he had something else in mind. It was evident that something else was disturbing him. Suddenly, Ethan dropped his spoon with a clatter “Jude is not who you think he is” he blurted out and his brow creased at the thought as if he was reading deeper meaning into it. “Then who is Jude” “You mean dad?” Lucas corrected “No, Jude” Micheal also sat in deep thought and I could sense that the weight of Ethan's words struck him like a hard rock “That's our father” Micheal replied slowly “Maybe my mom said it because she was going through an emotional feat but i don't think there's more to what we know” Immediately our focus shifted back to dinner. After dinner, Ethan turned to me, “Avery, can you go upstairs? Micheal and I have something to sort out”

  • The Billionaire's contract    Chapter 165. Counts as something

    I pushed open Catherine’s door as she has refused to open up to anyone. I moved closer and settled beside her, laying a steady hand on her back. I didn’t have words that could mend her broken heart so I offered touch instead. “You know Avery,” she muttered through her tears. “I wish one of them were alive, there are questions I need to ask then” I found no ready comfort to offer so I just gave her a listening ear. Apparently, Catherine wasn’t angry at Micheal she was angry at the breach of trust and loyalty. Just as I was about to say something, the door opened and Catherine came in. I rose and gave Catherine a last gentle squeeze, stepping back to stand aside. Soon, I received a text from Ethan asking for us to be in the living room I quietly excused them, making my way to the room where Ethan, Michal and Lucas were already seated. Moments later, Catherine and Jenkins joined us. I noticed Catherine looking less emotional than she had been. She looked more compo

  • The Billionaire's contract    Chapter 163. Jude Blackwood

    It was boldly written… Jude Blackwood “That's my husband's name” Catherine said “I don't know if this means anything,” Micheal continued. “But I believe my mom wouldn't write down this name if it didn't lead to something significant” “I also brought back some important document that belonged to my mother, but I haven't had the time to go through them yet” Catherine became emotional as her eyes glistened in tears “Mom!” Lucas called out Catherine shook her head with a vulnerable expression “Jude wouldn't cheat on me. He was faithful to a fault” she said, her voice breaking slightly “Mom, nothing is certain yet; it's just a write up” Turning to Micheal, he asked “Is there a test we can do to know if we are siblings since dad isn't around for a DNA test?” Micheal nodded still in deep thought “We can carry out the siblingship test to know the truth” Catherine however remained visibly emotional. Sensing her distress, I stood up and moved over to her. I gl

    Ethan and I dressed casually as we headed to the airport When we arrived, we noticed Micheal was unusually quiet. Ethan also observed his quietness “Are you okay?” He asked, his voice laced with concern Micheal shook his head in affirmation but I could tell something was bothering him. Just when we decided to bask in the tensed quietness, Micheal broke through “Have got some information about my dad” he said, still staring blankly into space. Ethan’s interest piqued immediately and he looked over at Micheal “Should I pull over at our regular spot so we can talk over a drink?” Micheal quickly shook his head “No, let’s just go home. There are things I need to discuss with ma’am Catherine” he replied With this, Ethan’s speed increased. The urgency in Michael’s calm Voice had not gone unnoticed. When we arrived home, Catherine was already waiting for Micheal at the door with a concerned and eager expression She had received his text about needing to ask her a f

    When we got home, Catherine wasted no time in announcing the news to everyone who came close. “Jenkins” she called quickly, dialing his number to share the good news. “You won't believe it, Avery and Ethan are expecting twins” Lucas overhead and chimed in excitedly “That makes me the uncle of twins” He exclaimed Catherine clapped her hands together “This Calls for celebration!” she exclaimed “Someone call the chef or maybe I should do the cooking” she said as she headed to the kitchen. I trailed behind her “No Avery, remember what the doctor says. You need to rest” Ethan chimed in “You really do need to rest” he said, gently pulling me closer as he guided me towards the bedroom. “Twins, huh” I said, trying to wrap my head around the news “Yeah” Ethan replied, still trying to guage my reaction “Raising two kids at a time, that's a lot of work” I said as fear crept into my voice I watched Ethan's brow creased as he looked at me deeply, sensing my ap

  • The Billionaire's contract    Chapter 160. Rest

    The beeping sound of the ultrasound scan made me a bit nervous. Sensing my anxiety, Ethan gripped my hand and caressed every part of it. We were at the hospital for our regular checkups She began her work and glanced at me saying, “Mr Blackwood, you need to leave her hand. I have to check her pulse” Ethan hesitated and tightened his grip a little “Can't you check with the other hand?” He asked protectively. She insisted with a friendly but kind voice. “I understand your concern Mr Blackwood. But I need to do this properly” “Ethan… let her do her job” I blurted out “Fine” Ethan sighed, realizing he had to let go and reluctantly released my hand I noticed that the nurse’s face creased for a moment as if concentrating before it brightened into a smile. My heart raced with concern, so I asked “Is everything okay?” “Yes ma’am ,” she replied reassuringly “But the CEO would like to speak with both of you” Ethan's brow furrowed at her words “What does

    I changed my long flowy gown to a short skimpy dress that complimented my stature. I had long straight legs which helped a lot and made me embody the theme of the show. As the lead model, I opened the show with a long, calculated and rehearsed stride. I could hear gentle clicks of the camera as
