The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire の小説・ストーリー

He greeted the camera with formality before addressing the main topic. "Today, I'm posting this video to explain the recent baseless rumors about my wife. I want to clarify that she is not with me for greed or because I am wealthy. There's no truth to the claims that she clung to me and tried every means to seduce me into marriage." Finishing the introduction, Kane eloquently recounted the story of his and Lani's love. He narrated how Lani initially didn't know about his billionaire status and was deceived into believing he was just a poor office worker.

he snapped at them. That man is rich. He is married and his wife is a socialite. He has so many mistresses, that he doesn't know how many kids he sired so far. Most of them get an abortion, but only a few will keep the child to threaten him for money. Little do they k for that he is so cruel that he never hesitated to kill any of them, even the little kids. His wife is happy as long as gives her enough money for her endless shopping spree. He never asked if she had an affair as long as she maintains it a secret.

VIVIENNE Before, I was just dreaming of a good husband. A husband who would love me, who would prioritize me, who would stand by my side no matter what. It felt like a faraway wish, something I’d only imagine late at night. When I first married Ezekiel, it wasn’t like that at all. He only married me because he felt he had to; it was a shotgun marriage after all, coming right after the surprise of my pregnancy. Back then, Ezekiel couldn’t even get over his ex, Alex. I knew it. Everyone knew it. I always felt like a stand-in, a shadow, never really the one he wanted. I was just a substitute.

He was insinuating what had gotten me here in the first place and although I was disgusted by this pregnancy, I could use some much needed attention. I silently get up and head to the bedroom. I hear him follow behind me and shut the door. At least there was one thing that occupied me. After my hatred-filled entanglement, I tell Francisco to take me to a nail salon. Once we arrive, I sit down and wait for my services when I see the news playing in a screen just up the wall across from me. ‘Social Articles report that a young billionaire is no longer back on the market. The business mogul has rekindled with his wife who was seen sporting the same rings gifted to her for their wedding just 6 y

I didn't want the news of our marriage to be out yet. “This would look good on you, Ava,” she chirped, nudging my arms to pick out more wear. I rolled my eyes at her and she whisper-yelled. “You are a billionaire's wife now and should own as many dresses as you want.” “Fine, fine,” I raised my hands in mock surrender, knowing that Freya wouldn't hesitate to tell every shopper and worker in the boutique that I was married to a billionaire if I didn't do what she wanted. Jeez!

Even though I was a little bothered by what she said, I tried not to show it to her because I'm sure that it would only make her more emboldened to mock me. I comfortably crossed my arms and raised my eyebrows at her first before I decided to speak. "Is this what really happens to desperate people? Just making up stories even if there's no truth to it?" I couldn't help myself anymore and laughed sarcastically in return for the way she had laughed at me earlier. "I know you know that between the two of us here, your entire family's business is the one that's already bankrupt now and not us! And how and why did that happen to your family? Oh, I remember! Because of my husband, right? My husban

Fabiola. I didn’t bother to change back into my dress, I was feeling a little lightheaded, plus I wanted to leave before Lan would think of starting a fight with the man almost twice his size. I grabbed my dress from the house and left, whispering sorry to Tonia and Lan. I heard girls behind me gossiping. “Billionaires' wives, they don’t have a life of their own, they’re just like puppets." “Yeah, they traded their freedom for money.”

“Yeah thanks thats money talking “, I said. “You married Charlie Hearth? Like everyone knows he is a sad billionaire, he doesn’t show his face at all, because he is sad and thats who you married? Because of money? But you’re not poor Alice, you’re doing real good for yourself, like why would you do that to yourself?”. “I just got retired by my “sad billionaire husband “ he asked me not to go to work anymore unless it’s by invitation, and Im getting an extra 2 million to do that, I don’t care what you think “.

“Tell me who he is and why he chose me as his wife.” She stood petrified in front of me, as if she didn’t know what to say, but I wouldn’t let her get away before she answered all my questions. “I don't understand why he chose you as his wife,” her voice came out shaky and slurred, “but Mr. Gregory is the heir to a multi-billion dollar empire. He needs a wife to take over the family business.” “Billionaire?” I whispered, and it was as if my strength went out like a balloon. ”I married a billionaire?”

Hadley's breathing turns erratic, and she tries to manage it as she turns towards her father, asking for an explanation. “Did you know that she has been sick, or are you just getting to know?” Hadley asked, and the man sighed, rubbing his jaw. “Have you ever wondered if you came in as your sister's substitute…that is because we can't let a sick child marry into Elliot's family,” he said, and Hadley gasped. She was able to marry Maurice because her sister was sick, and her greedy father needed someone to step in. “So you mean, I was called to substitute for Ella, not because she ran away but because she was…sick?” Hadley asked, looking at her mother, and the woman nodded her head at her.
