All Chapters of Two Billionaire Brothers! and A Surrogate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Cassie tried to avoid turning around to steal glances at him as he pounded at the sack furiously. She glanced at him again as she worked on the treadmill. He was hurriedly pulling off his loose shirt. The sight of toned abs and his large biceps took her by surprise.“Oh” she gulped and missed her step on the machine.“Are you okay ma'am?” The instructor asked, reaching out to steady her on the treadmill.She nodded, her cheeks turning bright red with embarrassment. “Yeah”He didn't even flinch or notice them. She stood, mouth open staring at him.Her instructor stood watching her, puzzled.His back and chest glistened with sweat. He only stopped for a few seconds to adjust the wrap around his fingers and then continued to pound at the hanging sack.Probably sensing that he was being watched, he turned around suddenly to face them. “Uhmm” Cassie cleared her throat and looked around the gym, smoothing her hair nervously with her hands.When she eventually found her courage and turne

Cassie could sense the tension in the room as she walked in. She took a deep breath to steady her nerves and clutched at her long red dress. “I thought we might have to pull you to this place with a string young lady” an older lady she could tell was Zander's mother scolded her from the table. All eyes were on her. She felt like a sheep walking into a den of lions. She mumbled an apology under her breath hoping it was heard and walked to the seat that had her name on it. She found herself sitting right next to Zander who didn't even say a word to her. He turned and scanned her from head to toe, then gave a simple nod of satisfaction.She sank into the seat and stared at her plate, wishing that the dinner was over.Zander cleared his throat and addressed everyone calmly “Well…I suppose we are all here now. This is Cassie Barns, the surrogate carrying my child…Laurie's child.”Zoe scoffed, eyeing Cassie in disgust. She didn't bother to hide the irritation in her eyes. “She is a str

“You were right Linda” Cassie sat with Linda in her kitchen, watching her chop vegetables. She had managed to find a silly reason to leave the mansion since Jeffrey and Zander were away on a business trip.“Rich people are different,” she continued.Her mind replayed the events of the family dinner again and she pushed them away, forcing herself to focus on the small bowl of ice cream in front of her. Linda watched her silently as she played around with her spoon, managing a few scoops of the vanilla and banana flavored ice cream.“I thought you loved Vanilla and banana” Cassie had the same question on her mind. This was usually her favorite flavor. She has even craved them so badly the week before. “It is my favorite but…I don't know, I just don't want it anymore” Cassie replied pushing the bowl away.Linda smiled, reaching out to take away the bowl of rejected ice cream. “You really are pregnant Cassie”Cassie looked up at her in confusion and she quickly explained.“The wild

Out of reflex, his arms went around her in an attempt to hold her up and stop her from hitting his chest with full force. The scent of flowers, vanilla and chocolate hit him all at once, overpowering his senses and leaving him frozen for a minute.What is this feeling? He couldn't bring himself to pull away. He towered over her and her smallish, warm body fit perfectly in his arms.She looked up at him and the look in her eyes finished the deal. He was knocked senseless, unable to form words or move. This wasn't right. “Oh God!”Did she say something? Her voice was barely above a whisper. She suddenly jerked away from him and he was shocked at the tiny regret he felt as soon as her warm body cut contact with his.He swallowed, suddenly regaining his power of speech. This was stupid. Why did an accidental hug affect him so badly? “You should watch where you're going” he blurted out, hating how cold he sounded.His eyes were stuck on her face. He hadn't realized how beautiful her e

Zander shut his laptop just in time as Cameron walked into his office in his usual carefree manner. “Hey big brother!” Cameron greeted with his mysterious smile.“I wasn't expecting you. What a pleasant surprise” Zander replied, smiling and trying to appear cheerful.Cameron narrowed his eyes at his response but didn't comment on it.“I haven't been to the company premises since I returned home. I thought it would be a good idea to pay a visit” he replied smiling.Zander nodded stiffly, his eyes watching Cameron's every move and body language.“Of course. You're always welcome here. Please have a seat” he replied, waving him to a seat.Cameron didn't sit down immediately. He took his time, walking around to admire the large office. He came to a halt in front of their father's picture hanging boldly on the wall and stood staring at it.“He looks so intimidating in this picture” He said, reaching out to caress the picture gently.Zander stood from his desk to join him, racking his head
