Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 8. Surprise Birthday Celebration
Richard's POV"Who are you? What do you want?" I shouted, trying to calm the panic. "Hands above your head!" repeated the voice. This time, I felt that the voice sounded somewhat familiar. I quickly put my hands up. My mind couldn't escape Nikkie. I hoped nothing wrong would happen to her.The faint light continued to approach me slowly. I tried to focus my vision on the figure behind the dim candlelight."Make a wish!" the familiar voice commanded me again. When my brain started to recognize the owner of this voice, I lowered my hand. It was Nikkie's voice."What the hell, Nikkie? You've got me worried, you know?" I couldn't stop myself from nagging her."Quick, make a wish. My hands are tired of holding this cake," Nikkie said with a mischievous grin. She paid no heed to my nagging. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes to make a wish like she told me to. I wished for the baby in Nikkie's womb to grow up healthy. It was an unnecessary request, as I would do everything to make tha
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 9. Reason for Falling in Love
Richard's POV"Did you get slapped?" I asked. I put away the book I was reading and noticed a minor wound on the corner of Krystal's lip. It wouldn't have been noticeable if blood hadn't oozed from it."I caught that idiot Trevor kissing in the science lab. With Claudia, that slutty girl!"I kept staring at the corner of Krystal's injured mouth as she spoke. Something inside my chest was churning with heat. I wanted to find Trevor and pay him back for what he did to Krystal. Three times over. "I grabbed Claudia's hair, but that made Trevor mad and yell at me. I hate being yelled at, so I slapped him and told him we were breaking up. Trevor was outraged and slapped me back. Ah, shit! I'm still annoyed at Claudia's smug expression when Trevor slapped me!"I let out a long sigh. Thankfully, at least Krystal had payback at Trevor first. I'll get him back twice as much.I was still thinking of a plan to get back at Trevor when Aaron suddenly appeared beside me with a stack of books in his
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 10. Morning Sickness
Nikkie's POV"Nikkie, why don't you ever come see me? What kind of work are you doing in that place?" I could hear my mother's words even though she was far from where I stood. All around me was my bedroom at Krystal's house, and all the windows and exits were locked.I banged on the window, shouting apologies to my mother. But she was sinking further into the lake, her hands reaching me for help.I screamed and cried as much as I could, pounding on the dead-locked windows. I wanted to go there and save Mom. The sight was so frightening. I didn't want her to leave me."Nikkie, wake up!" I heard a faint voice that became clearer and clearer. My body also felt shaken, and my cheeks hurt slightly from being patted."Nikkie!"I opened my eyes; my heart was beating fast, and my eyes were blurry. I rubbed my eyes and felt my eyes get wet. I felt a firm hand slip under my back, holding my arm. A moment later, I felt that arm pulling me to sit against the headboard. I was still trying to re
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 11. Richard's Sweet Demeanor
Nikkie's POV"I know, but can this meeting be postponed?" Richard looks frustrated. He rubbed his head in frustration. The other person's voice on the other side was no longer loud. Richard then hung up, saying he would call back in a while."Go on, I'm fine. I have Sharon to keep me company," I said while rubbing my uncomfortable stomach. Richard looked at me with a complicated expression as if to imply that he didn't want to leave.Sharon picked up the soup bowl and left us alone. The air around us felt heavy because of Richard's moodiness. He didn't say anything. His large hand then moved to stroke my stomach. The warmth spread through the fibers of my clothes, sending a sense of comfort. Unconsciously, I let out a comfortable sigh. I closed my eyes to enjoy the stroking."I'll leave after you sleep. Get some rest," I faintly heard Richard speak. I don't know when I fell asleep.All I knew was that when I woke up, I no longer had Richard by my side. I didn't feel nauseous anymore,
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 12. Krystal is Back Home
Nikkie's POV"Why? Don't you think we should make the most of the time we have left?" asked Richard with a mischievous smile. My face felt hot as a result of him saying that. Making the most of the remaining time? What does he want to do? Don't tell me that..."Hahaha, why is your face so red? Don't worry. I won't do anything out of line. We're already under contract. Or... are you imagining something else?" Richard whispered in my ear. His deep voice successfully sent goosebumps all over my body. I quickly pulled the blanket over myself and turned my back to Richard. Trying to save myself from embarrassment. The sound of low laughter could be heard from behind, along with a warm embrace from Richard, who was snuggled under the same blanket."Why are you so cute, Nikkie? Made me want to bite you," Richard whispered in a muffled voice from behind. I could only stand still, my body stiffening even more as I felt Richard rubbing his face against my back. I didn't know how to react. Th
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 13. Nikkie's Fever
Richard's POV"Sharon, get some warm water and a towel to compress! Bring some drinking water, too!" I opened the first aid kit in a hurry and took out a thermometer to take Nikkie's temperature. The reading on the thermometer showed 37.4 degrees Celsius. "What happened? She was fine this morning," I demanded an explanation from Krystal while I waited for Sharon to get the requested items.I was preparing to leave when I received a call from Krystal. She was confused because Nikkie kept spitting food and wasn't getting out of bed. I had called Aaron on the way home. Aaron said that if Nikkie's fever didn't reach 39 degrees Celsius overnight, then there was no need to take her to the hospital. The fever is her body's response to a lack of nutrients and fluids. It can also be caused by stress."I just invited her to have lunch together. Everything was fine until moments later when I suddenly heard a sound like someone throwing up. And sure enough, when I looked into the room, Nikkie
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 14. Richard's Original Intention
Richard's POV"I understand. I'll try to keep my emotions stable," Nikkie said. She didn't sound as excited as before. I felt something was wrong, but I didn't know what it was. Nikkie finally fell asleep a while later. I took this time to eat, then went back to check on her. Nikkie was sleeping restlessly. Her eyebrows were furrowed, her breathing was rapid, and her forehead was sweaty. I touched her forehead, which was still as hot as before. It was almost 11 pm, and Nikkie still had a fever.I continued to compress Nikkie for an hour. Nikkie occasionally moaned in her sleep, making me unable to bear it. I suddenly remembered an unusual way to reduce fever. I had practiced this on Krystal when she had a fever a few years ago, and it had successfully lowered her fever.I hesitated for a while before deciding to do it. It seemed okay; Nikkie wouldn't know. I slowly brought my face closer to Nikkie's by suppressing my guilty conscience. From 5 centimeters away, I could feel the hea
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 15. A T-shirt Mystery
Nikkie's POV"I managed to persuade Krystal. But you can only use your cell phone for two hours a day," Richard said, waving his hand holding my cell phone.My eyes rounded in delight, instantly forgetting the shirt in my hand. "Really? I want to call my mom!" I squealed happily. Richard stepped inside while chuckling softly. "I expected you to say that," he said as he passed the phone into my hand. I hurriedly turned on my phone, checking that the battery percentage was still enough for a 2-hour video call.My hand was already moving to press the video call icon, but I decided against it. I glanced at Richard, sitting on the edge of the bed with a hesitant look."Can I make a video call?" I asked timidly."Of course. But I don't want to take any risk, so I'll stay here and listen to your conversation," Richard said, making me sigh with relief.Richard suggested I make the video call at my desk, with the wall in the background. I agreed. After all, it was better to minimize the poss
