The Fake Billionaire Chapter 35: Reconciliation with My Mom
AlexandraMy hands shake under his. Despite this, I can also feel heat arise from the part he held. It runs through my body and causes a shudder.He let go of my hand quickly, his eyes watching me. "Are you alright?”I blink once, then twice. What does he mean by that? I thought he recognized me as Maya.“I wanted to tell you my orders, but you've been walking past me,” he says, giving me a confused look.I take a deep breath and remember I'm putting on my face mask. He would never know it's me. Aside from that, there's no way Maya will be working in a bar. Or is there?“Oh, alright. Tell me then.”“For now, I will like a bottle of champagne and barbecue.”“I will be back,” I whisper and ease myself back to Alexandran, “ A bottle of champagne and barbecue for Ethan."He drops the bucket of ice and puts in the bottle of champagne. “I'm furious,” he says and walks to get the barbecue.I hurried to give him the champagne with a glass of wine. I can feel Ethan's gaze on me as I make my wa
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 34: Surprise is an understatement.
AlexandraMy heartbeat increases, and it feels like it's going to rip out of my chest. My hands shake, and I feel my legs break down under me. If I were standing,I might have faltered.Petal was still watching me with those all-knowing eyes. “Don't you think?”I look away, fidgeting in the process. How the heck did he know I was a surrogate? Well, it's palpably clear, isn't it?Perhaps I should tell him. I should let him know I didn't mean to be Maya's substitute. But wouldn't that include telling him where the real Maya is? Well, I will just tell him I don't know.“ What? Why do you look so shocked? Don't you know you have a lookalike?"I look at him again, surprised. What's he talking about?He raises confused brows. “You don't know that you look so much like Maya Everett?”OMG! He didn't notice! I thought he did. OMG! I was so scared.I release the breath I didn't even know I was holding. Jeez, I nearly started talking. What if I had told him something he doesn't even believe?I sm
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 33: He knows?
AlexandraPetal smiles and moves his head towards me. I knew he wanted to kiss me. The silly man must think so highly of himself.I meet him away, hitting my hand on his head.“Damn!” He curses, and his hold on me falters. I take it as an opportunity to ease away from the bed.“Lady!” He calls angrily as I start to figure out where the damn door is.He comes at me from behind again, and I struggle to get free from his hold.“Hey, calm down!" he says, “ Please," he adds quickly.I stop moving, and then he lets me go too. I turn to look at him. "What's happening here? How did I get here?”I know he didn't touch me because I'm still with my wear, and my underwear is intact. Though, I'm yet to figure out why.Petal has another nickname aside from the one that put him and his friends together. This nickname is something that was invented because of his stupid behavior. Petal is a skirt chaser.“Don't you remember?” He blinks once, and I give him a skeptical look. “In the bar.”I sigh, "And
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 32: Get him out of my face.
AlexandraI open my eyes slowly. My head hurts so much, and it feels like I banged it hard against something.I look around swiftly, then I realize I'm not in my room, and it doesn't look like my house either.Since Mom wouldn't even talk to me, I couldn't decide whether to get a house or not. I just got a phone and some clothes.But where am I?The door opens, and Petal walks in. I look up at her, my mouth opens in agape as I give him in-depth scrutiny.He's hot, in short, and damn! He's shirtless, his bulging chest and broad shoulders telling me how strong he is.A little digression, and I'm staring at his abs.OMG! How can he be so strong underneath?And what is he doing here?I laugh. I must be dreaming again.I don't know why Petal is always coming to my dream. But I've had enough, and I'm waking up.I lay back on the bed and close my eyes.“Alexandra_” he started, but I stopped him with a wave of my hand, my eyes still closed.I turn to my right side and try to fall back asleep.
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 31: I kissed Petal.
Alexandra I look up at Emily as she helps me with the champagne. She gives me one last look before she walks out. She looks angry, actually.I laugh inwardly. She used to make me feel inferior, and now she's been forced into serving me.Well, I've been working at the bar for three days now, but the manager would not stop giving me special treatment.Most times, she would let me go home earlier. Though I don't think I can continue working for her, yet I will use her for now.I've made her and Alexandra promise not to expose my identity. They are supposed to call me Alexandra in public and Maya in private.It feels weird that I'm still unable to identify as myself. I don't like the fact that I can't even walk in the daytime. I think that will reduce after Maya is found.Who am I kidding? I might have to be in hiding for months. No one knows when Maya will wake up. And they are not even going to let the world know she's in the hospital.Assuming they can do that, then they will stop loo
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 30: His Missing Rib
EthanI'm fuming! I am serious! I crush the paper in my hand and look at Betty.She has been sobbing about her daughter's whereabouts.I've been so fucked! The bride disappears the second day after marriage! What the fuck was that supposed to mean?!Who the heck was Hatti trying to meet that day? Maybe she would have told me that day if I had asked. Then she wouldn't have been kidnapped.I don't believe all this is happening to me.Even my father thinks it's my fault. And I'm supposed to find out before he loses his temper, and then what?I'm supposed to find a missing person? Am I the police?“Didn't she call you or something?” One of the police asks. It's the second day, and Maya is still nowhere to be found.Betty nods briefly. “Please, help me find my daughter,” she starts crying. Mercy has to take her upstairs.I stare up at the police. “Please, find my wife. Please do.”The men bow slightly, “ We will do our best, Mr. Carson."I sigh and lead them out of the house.But why will
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 23; Our Night Can Be a Daze
EthanI look at her for a while, then let it fall on her exposed breast.Unfilled desires from last night crept on. I let out a sigh. I shouldn't be doing this.“What are you doing!” She screams, suddenly forcing my eyes back to her.I raised a brow and waited.“Why are you with a towel?”I blink o
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 22: A Night of Blurred Realities
I managed to slip out into the compound without anyone raising an eyebrow. Honestly, my plan went smoother than I expected. For a second there, I was convinced Ethan had spotted me, but I didn't stick around to find out. I moved so fast that even if he had seen a glimpse of me, I was long gone befo
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 21: Find my wife.
EthanI'm not all that enthralled about the whole wedding. Just yesterday, I felt like I could have stood my ground about the fact that I didn't want to marry such a lady.I don't understand why I am suddenly drawn into accepting, but the reason I rejected it was because of how Maya is. I just don'
The Fake Billionaire Chapter 20: The Great Escape
The car glided smoothly through the massive iron gates, and Alexandra’s breath caught in her throat. Even in her state of high anxiety, she couldn't help but marvel at the sheer scale of the estate. It was a palace of gold, marble, and exquisite art a house that clearly shouted "billions." This was
