Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 49. Krystal's New Boyfriend
Krystal's POV"Of course, you can pay it off! You need more time to find out more, don't you?" I said.Richard frowned. He turned to me with suspicion visible on his face. "What do you mean, find out more?" asked Richard. I smiled with a feigned look of confusion. I shrugged my shoulders. "I mean, surely there's something wrong within your family's company that you can't cover operating costs? I don't know. You're the one who knows more about company management," I explained as best I could. I'm just trying to be entertaining, okay? Because I'm not talented with company affairs at all. But I did know one way to make Richard's company continue to go downhill. Thanks to Jeremy, Richard's assistant and my spy. It's great to have someone competent and loyal around me. They make my life so much easier!Richard was still looking at me with an appraising gaze. I again raised my eyebrows high, confused by the reaction shown by Richard. Indeed, lately, Richard has been playing hard to get,
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 50. The Emerging Facts
Richard's POV "I'd like to report your husband's weirdness this morning." I heard the sound of Jeremy's conversation with his cell phone. He was standing behind me, facing the window by the stairs, one floor below the floor of my office.I had just arrived at my office a few minutes ago. I suddenly remembered I had to find Jeremy to ask him about my following schedule. Jeremy was usually in the pantry at this hour making coffee. I suddenly felt like going down the stairs and finding Jeremy downstairs. I heard something interesting.It was unethical to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, even if they were talking about me. Usually, I would have left Jeremy alone until he finished his call. But this time was different. I was upset. "If you're done with your report, I'm waiting upstairs," I interrupt rather loudly.Jeremy was stunned. He turned his body around and almost dropped the cell phone. He searched for the origin of my voice and found me staring coldly from the top of t
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 51. Bring Back the Mini Bag
Richard's POV"I'm sorry, Mr. Richard, but I don't think this is the right time. I hope you can be patient a little longer. Regarding the person you mentioned, I will recommend someone soon. When do you want this new person to start working?" asked Shawn."The sooner, the better," I said firmly. Shawn nodded in understanding. He excused himself while carrying our leftover trash.After Shawn left, I resumed my investigation. I started to experience the first deadlock since I started investigating.I didn't give up, continuing to investigate patiently and diligently. Unfortunately, patience and perseverance were insufficient to solve my problem this time.For a week, I struggled with my laptop, only sleeping for 5 hours every night. My investigation just kept going in circles. When I thought I was almost there, I was back to square one.All of this was stressing me out. Not to mention having to continue working with Jeremy in an awkward atmosphere. Jeremy always trying to talk with me
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 52. The Gifts from Richard
Nikkie's POV"Don't bother them! Didn't I warn you about the consequences if you were on Mrs. Krystal's side?" nagged Sharon before I could react.Followed by a scratch on the ear of Blake, who had just interrupted my conversation with Richard. Blake winced in pain as he was both yanked and pulled out by Sharon.I laughed at their interaction. But to my surprise, Richard suddenly got up and followed the two outside. Wait, don't tell me that Richard thought Blake meant what he said? I quickly put my phone and card wallet back into my bag, hiding them among the clothes in the closet, and rushed outside.In the living room, I found Blake being scolded by Sharon and Richard. Sharon seemed to be in perfect harmony with Richard, supporting each other to corner Blake. "I told you, I didn't mean it. I was joking, just joking!" Blake exclaimed desperately. Blake glanced at me with a pleading look."Stop it. Didn't Blake say he was joking? It would be best if you weren't so serious," I tried
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 53. Calvin, the New Assistant
Richard's POV"Blake wouldn't do that. Trust me," Nikkie said, trying to calm me down. I didn't react; my frustration with Blake, which had subsided, was now peaking again.Honestly, the only person I trusted was Sharon. Blake was the chef hired by Krystal. Just as Krystal had recommended Jeremy, Blake might have been also Krystal's loyal dog.Nikkie released our embrace and then turned her body so we could face each other. She held both sides of my face with her hands, making our gazes lock. My annoyance instantly disappeared. My heart was beating twice as fast as usual. "Listen. If Blake were that sneaky, he would have reported you to Krystal immediately since he accidentally saw your car being watched outside the apartment."My eyes rounded in shock. "What?"Nikkie nodded vigorously. So Blake had known from the start?"Blake told me that fact yesterday. It was when he accidentally saw Sharon folding your shirt that was left here. Blake asked if you had come to this place, and we
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 54. A One Night Staycation
Richard's POV"What's wrong with me? Isn't this my company's business? Everything is up to me. Why are you the one who's inflamed, Krystal? Did your loyal dog snitch?" I quipped.Krystal, on the other side, was silent. I could feel her shock, which was not quickly masked."You've changed, Richard. You've become rude, you know?" said Krystal across the line. I raised my eyebrows. Was she trying to repeat the same pattern? Is she trying to make me feel guilty again?Sorry, but it didn't work this time. "Is telling the truth now considered a rude act?" I loosened my tie while fixing my sitting position in the car.Calvin in the front was still busy with his tablet, just like when we were about to leave for the meeting earlier. "But it's unethical for you to embarrass her like that! It's the same as embarrassing me. Everyone knows that Jeremy was the one I recommended!" Krystal exclaimed vehemently.I snorted sarcastically. "First of all, I didn't fire Jeremy. I just increased the number
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 55. A One Night Staycation (2)
Nikkie's POV"Showering... together?" I said as I looked around the room. I think I saw something like a shower earlier. Wait, why did I see a shower when I hadn't entered the bathroom?Sure enough, I wasn't mistaken. In one corner of the room, there was a transparent bathroom stall that I had only seen on TV.I glanced at Richard behind me, forgetting that the distance between us was thin. The result was predictable; my lips crashed into Richard's thick lips.I froze briefly, my brain failing to process what had just happened. When I finally regained consciousness, I quickly broke free from Richard's embrace and ran to the bed."Since when have you been behind me? Since when have you been hugging me? Why, why ...." my sentences were garbled. I didn't dare to look at Richard. I held my hot face with both hands. Stupidly, does that count as a kiss?Wait, wasn't that an accident? Then it doesn't count as a kiss! So why am I panicking like this? I took a deep breath, trying to calm myse
Billionaire's True Love is a Surrogate Mother 56. The Past of Richard
Nikkie's POV"Why do you seem so curious about my parents? Is there something going on that I don't know about? Did someone come to see you and claim to be my parents?" Richard asked repeatedly. He even got up from lying down and sat on the bed.Gosh, where did that thought come from? It seems accurate; Richard's family condition is not as simple as I imagined.I shook my head softly, got up, and sat on the headboard. Richard continued to look at me with a wary gaze."Calm down, Richard. Can't I ask about this? I also want to know what happens to the baby after I hand him over to you.I want to know what kind of person the baby's grandmother and grandfather are. After all, you know the baby is our child," I lied.To be more convincing, I even stroked my slightly distended stomach. Act like a sensitive pregnant woman. "You took me by surprise, Nikkie," Richard complained as he stroked my belly."It seems like your family background is not simple. Why would you think that your parents w
