Lahat ng Kabanata ng Billionaire And His CEO Wife: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

"Stella's point of view,""What can I do for you, Miss Parker?" He answered my call on the first ring as soon as I dialed his number. Was he expecting my call and holding his phone out? No, this is not possible. He won't be aware that I am calling him at this moment because he is probably waiting for another call while I have dialed his number. "Why are you silent, Miss Parker? Why did you call me? Please explain." His deep voice cut my train of thought of. Oh no, how do I respond to his query now? I called him a lot of bravadoes, but as soon as I heard his voice, all of my assurance seemed to vanish. My words feel as though they are stuck in my throat. I'd never had such anxiety before. "Miss Parker, are you listening?" Why is his voice making me suddenly anxious? "Y..ye yes...," It was really difficult for me to speak the words. "So why are you silent? What's up?" His voice genuinely reflected his unease. It implies that he is genuinely interested in finding out more about me.

"Stella's point of view,""All of your other conditions are acceptable to me, but the third numbered one is not." Even before he could sign the papers, his hands froze. "Why do you disagree with the third point?" I questioned, arching my brows. "After all, what kind of person do you think I am if you only want to get married to me for a year? I know that my reputation isn't great with you, but it doesn't mean we have to be married by contract." Oh, so the marriage's ties to this heartless individual do matter. "But Mr. Woods, our marriage is merely a business arrangement; we are both looking to benefit from our marriage." What makes this man think that I will spend the rest of my life married to such a haughty man? "The contract between us has been signed, but I...,""Oh, come on, don't ponder too much." Sign the paperwork right away."What makes him think that I'll grant all of his wishes? No, not at all. I am better at influencing people than he is. I knew he would not readi

"Stella's point of view,"I'm speechless that Ethan Woods is giving me such a passionate kiss in front of everyone. He has no right to kiss me in that way. Despite all the warnings I had given him, he still kissed me. Has he forgotten about our agreement? Is he considering our contract marriage as a love union? Oho, Stella, save your wrath for later; for now, I want to bask in the passionate kiss of the man in front of me. My subconscious feels that now is not the time to be angry. At this moment, my subconscious was urging me to forget everything, close my eyes, and savor this passionate kiss. I felt his lips lightly brush against mine as he grabbed my waist with one hand and the back of my neck with the other. His proximity caused an unusual emotion that had never occurred before. My heartbeat was audible in my ears, but maybe it was Ethan's heartbeat. I wondered why his pulse was beating so loudly. I couldn't resist his kiss even if I wanted to, and it dominated me. After all, w

"Stella's point of view,""Mrs. Woods, did you sleep well?" When I opened my eyes, Ethan's face was there in front of me. "How did I get here? Did I doze off while seated?" I looked around. "I made you lie down on the bed because the trip was long, and sitting on the seat for an extended period could hurt your neck." He responded to me, his eyes glued to the laptop's display. "What? Do you mean you held me in your arms and brought me here?" How can he be of such a caring nature that I find it impossible to believe his words? I'm sure that someone else brought me here. "You brought me here, and I can't believe it," I asked the thought that had just crossed my head. "Why do you think I can't pick you up here, Mrs. Woods?" Is he trying to ignore me by having his eyes glued to the laptop for so long? Should I tell him he lacks sympathy and that showing concern for me could damage his reputation as a monster? I won't be able to ruin my mood by being disrespectful to him. "Tell me,

"Stella's point of view,""Now, could you please explain what you want to do with these coconut leaves?" He has been disturbing me for a while now with his comments. "Will you at least attempt to assist me?" I glared at him. "What more do you expect from me after I have quietly followed your every command for so long that I should pluck stars from the sky for my darling wife?" He responded in a grating manner. "Can collecting a few coconut leaves be helpful?" I asked, stressing the term "help." "What do you want to do? I still don't understand why you are wasting both of our time with these coconut leaves, but we need to make plans for ourselves to eat and go to bed before it becomes dark." He began berating me. He can not reprimand me in this manner. "You can't chastise me in this way; instead, make some arrangements for both of us to eat. I'll do my work on my own." "Mrs. Woods, you have stated nowhere in the contract that I may not reprimand you." He was mocking me based on t
