The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception Queen of Predators
Mark,I watched her, Violet Riverwood, from behind Knox. As expected, she was indeed a woman who could be an angel or a devil. The duality in her aura was enough to make anyone question which side she would show next. Her posture was calm, but there was always that dangerous stillness in her, like a blade resting in its sheath, waiting for a reason to gleam.When I first met Knox, we were both in university. Knox and Violet studied different subjects, yet somehow, they were inseparable, like two forces bound by something deeper than understanding. It wasn’t affection that glued them together; it was obsession wrapped in silence. So, when Knox told me that he wanted to manipulate the entire wedding with Sarah Smith and bring Violet in as the third person, I wasn’t surprised. Shocked, yes. But not surprised.I tried to veto his idea, of course. It sounded insane. But when he explained everything, when he revealed how desperate he was to remain tied to Violet one way or another, I unders

Knox," You bought this today?" Luca carefully checked the sniper I had just bought. His thumb slid along the cold barrel with curiosity, his brows raising slightly as if he couldn’t believe I’d made the purchase. After seeing Violet Riverwood off, I had returned to the shop once again. While trying other guns, this new one stole my attention. I didn’t have any sniper in my collection, so I decided to try.Now sitting on the second floor of the bar, I swirled the liquor in my glass, watching the amber liquid catch the dim light before draining it. The air was heavy with cigar smoke, perfume, and the bass thumping through the walls below. From above, I watched the crowd dancing like madmen—reckless, lost in the rhythm. Mark sat quietly next to me, his glass untouched, his fingers tapping the side with a steady rhythm. His silence felt sharp, his jaw tightening every so often as if he were holding something back. I wondered what he was thinking.Leaning into the couch, I chugged down
The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception Hunter.... Or Prey
Knox,Two hours ago,Mark placed the file on the table with a measured, almost mechanical motion. His jaw stayed locked, eyes flat and unblinking, like someone trying not to betray a single thought. “This is all the information you need to know about the target.” His voice was low, dry, stripped of any warmth.The way his tongue pressed against his teeth before each word told me something else — a silent rebellion. He wanted me to lose my interest in this last mission. He wanted me to fail so I’d never be free from my grandfather’s grip, never claim my rightful position as leader.But I ignored the hints, the tremor in his tone, the way his shoulders stiffened whenever I looked at him. Mark acted differently these days, almost like he resented my existence — or perhaps the version of me that returned after the memory loss.He claimed to be my best friend and personal assistant for years, but his face never softened. His mouth always stayed pressed into a thin line, like a man who foll
The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception Join us to have lunch
Cyrus cooed, chewing on his own finger. His big eyes shifted between me and the man who was staring at me with concern.I froze, my breath catching as if time itself had stopped. My chest tightened, my pulse hammering so violently it echoed in my ears. That scent—familiar, intoxicating—slid into my lungs like a cruel reminder of the past I never wanted to forget.Mirah gasped, her hand flying to her mouth in horror, while Julia furrowed her brows in confusion, her knuckles turning white on the stroller’s handle."State Bene?" he asked again, his voice low and firm, filled with quiet authority. This time, his attention dropped to Cyrus, who clutched the fabric of his shirt with tiny fists.My throat went dry. Maybe my heartbeat was too loud, or maybe I had simply forgotten how to speak, but not a word left my lips. I just stood there, stiff, as if I hadn’t heard him at all.His hand slipped from my waist and pressed against my forehead, his palm warm, his brows knitting together as his

I watched her face turn pale. Mrs. Bakers, or whatever her name was, looked genuinely confused. Well, wise people don’t rush. They take their time before acting.Matteo looked as if he had been punched in the face. His lips opened and closed like a goldfish within seconds, as though he was scrambling to find a word to protect his job.Too bad. People who like to kiss others’ shoes just because they have money make me sick."Ms. Riverwood! Please reconsider! I have been working here for years. I have experience and—!""Experience of treating people based on their outfits or social status?" I snapped, my patience wearing thin."I...!""And I’m pretty sure if the tables hadn’t turned, you would have forced me to beg for forgiveness and insulted me. Do you think I would let a man like you handle my business?" My voice was calm, edged with a sharp, low growl."I am really sorry. Please don’t take my jo—!""Enough!" Mrs. Bakers roared, pushing him out of her sight. "How dare you insult me h

The scene before me felt awfully similar, but this time it was a different woman.Now I wondered whether I looked so easy to bully or not."My apologies, Madame! The dress has been chosen by her!" the saleswoman politely informed her.But to my absolute horror, she slapped her right across the face and screamed, "How dare you talk back to me! I said I would take this cloth. Tell her to take it off!"The absolute audacity of that woman made my blood boil. Not only did she dare to demand such an absurd proposal, but she also bullied another person. Judging by her accent, she didn’t sound like a native trying to speak English."Oii!" She suddenly snapped her fingers and held her platinum card toward me as if she was showing off. "I will pay you ten times more. Give the dress to me. You understand me, right?"I narrowed my eyes but ignored her completely. I had zero patience for people like her. However, before I could get close to the cashier, she roared from behind,"Don’t force me to d
