THE BILLIONAIRE’S PERFECT MATE

Facade of Happiness



After Ellie moved to Sans Francisco alongside with Ivory, nothing really changed about her relationship with Kevin, as he barely went home. Ellie had thought that would change if she moved in with him, but she was wrong. He slept most of his nights out, claiming

he had to work overnight. Ellie tried to get to know her husband’s new workplace, but Kevin kept bringing up different excuses each time she tried to. He didn’t want her to know where he worked, but Ellie never thought much of it. As soon as she got back

to Sans Francisco, she tried getting a job as a designer, which she loved doing the most. Luckily for her, she was able to get one as a part-timer. She shuffled between working as a designer and caring for her daughter. She began to adapt to Kevin not being

around and in no time, it became part and parcel of her.

Everything was going perfectly well, and she was happy with her new life. But she became happier when she found out she was pregnant with Kevin’s child.

“Mrs. Smith, I am happy to inform you that you are three weeks gone,” the doctor said, beaming with a smile to Ellie. Upon hearing this, Ellie was dumbfounded. She couldn’t describe how she felt at that moment, as she was more than happy and couldn’t find the

appropriate word to describe her feeling. What she had felt upon hearing the doctor’s declaration was quite different from how she had felt, when she found out she was pregnant with Ivory some years back. At that time, she felt frustrated and was in agony,

but this time around, she felt overwhelmed with joy. She was so overwhelmed that she began to tear up, making the doctor frightened.

“Mrs. Smith are you fine?” the doctor asked, feeling concerned.

“Yes, I am fine doctor. I am just overwhelmed and happy by the news you just broke.

“I understand you, Mrs. Smith. I was also this emotional when I found out I was pregnant with my first child. I couldn’t stop crying that my husband and the doctor thought something was wrong with me, but they didn’t know it was tears of joy. Knowing you are

carrying another life inside your womb is a thing of joy, isn’t it?” the doctor said, smiling at Ellie as she watched her wipe away her tears with her palms.

“Yes, it is” Ellie said, smiling back at her.

“Congratulations once again, Mrs. Smith You need to start your antenatal as soon as possible. I will also suggest you free yourself from getting stressed up and focus on keeping yourself and the baby in your womb safe,” the doctor continued, smiling.

“Thank you, doctor. I will make sure to be safe and start the antenatal as soon as possible. Thank you once again, doc” Ellie said, appreciating the doctor over and over again, while the doctor kept on smiling at her. As she walked out of the hospital making

her way home, she felt her heart gladdened with joy and couldn’t wait to share the news with Kevin. She was happy she would finally be able to repay Kevin for all the care he had shown her and Ivory by giving birth to his child. Upon getting home, she rehearsed

repeatedly on how to break the news to Kevin. She wanted to break the news to her in a special way and in a good atmosphere. So, she prepared a feast. She cooked all varieties of foods and lightened candles on the table. The atmosphere was screaming love.

After petting Ivory to sleep, Ellie dressed in a seductive night dress and patiently waited for Kevin to arrive. She didn’t wait long before she arrived and upon entering their apartment, Kevin noticed that the atmosphere was quite different and unusual.

“Did anything special happen today?” Kevin asked, making his way to the dining room, while awkwardly looking around.

“That’s a secret. Sit down and let me serve you your dish” Ellie said, trying to make Kevin all eager and put him in suspense of what was going on. They both sat down and dwelled into their food, while talking about how their days went.

“I am pregnant,” Ellie announced, halfway to their meal.

“What?” Kevin asked, dropping his spoon abruptly, making it hit his plate and making a loud noise. His reaction seemed as if he was shocked and wasn’t expecting the news. His face turned pale and the smile he had put on earlier faded away.

“Kevin, are you fine?” Ellie asked when she noticed his reaction.

“Yes, I am. I just didn’t hear what you said earlier” Kevin lied, wanting to confirm if he had truly heard her right.

“I just said I am carrying a mini you inside of me. We are having a baby, Kevin” Ellie said enthusiastically, while beaming with joy.

“Really? Ivory is getting a younger sibling?” Kevin asked, faking a smile. Kevin, who was displeased by the news, had to pretend as if he was happy about it. He never wanted to have a child with Ellie. He was just keeping her by his side until he achieved his

hidden aim.

“Yes, she is and you are going to be a father,” Ellie said, smiling like a fool.

“Wow, I am elated by the news. This truly cause for celebration. Thank you, Ellie” Kevin said, pretending as if he was genuinely happy.

“What for?” Ellie asked, wondering why he was being appreciative towards her.

“For carrying my lineage in your womb. Thank you once again” he said.

“I should be the once thanking you. If not for you, I and Ivory wouldn’t be where we are today. This is the only way I can repay for all your good deeds towards us, and I am glad I am finally able to” Ellie responded, holding his hands, while looking into his

eyes with love and affection.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Thank you. This causes for celebration. What do you think about starting the celebration in the bedroom?” Kevin said, grabbing Ellie by her waist, while looking at her lustfully.

“Why not?” Ellie responded, winking at him and dragging him by his tie to move him closer to her. Upon getting him closer to her, she locked her lips with that of Kevin with the two making their way into the bedroom, ready to devour each other. They spent the

night together in each other’s embrace but while Ellie slept peacefully with her heart filled with joy, Kevin couldn’t get a wink of sleep as he kept on thinking of how to clean up the mess he had created.

Everything was going on perfectly well until one day. The day Ellie left her daughter Ivory, at home hale and hearty, only to come back few hours later, to meet her dead body, laid on the stretcher, outside their building.
