The Billionaire’s Surrogate Wife

“Darling, you took so long to make up.”

Samuel had been seen sitting on the edge of the bed. He was waiting for his wife, who seemed engrossed in lingering in front of the dressing table.

There are many kinds, including anything the woman puts on her face. Waiting so long and curious, Samuel protested. The man then got up to quickly go over.

“Are you wearing makeup or pressing the walls of your house? I’ve been waiting for almost half an hour, but it’s not over,” the man protested.

Ariana glanced. From behind the mirror, she saw her husband had a sullen face but still looked funny. Samuel’s behavior this morning was exactly like a child’s.

It’s not the matter of makeup that is the beginning of the problem. But, the man had previously asked his wife to pair a tie. It’s just that because Ariana hasn’t finished beautifying herself, Samuel can’t help but have to wait patiently.

“Oh my gosh. It’s only been a few minutes. I’ve just been using my skincare routine too. Haven’t made it to the makeup yet, Samuel. Besides, usually, you can tie your tie. It’s annoying to ask for all kinds of things.”

Samuel chuckled. What Ariana said was true. Usually, he also wears his tie. However, Samuel asked Ariana to do this because she wanted to feel like a husband out there whose ties were matched by their wives.

“Yes, I also want to put on a tie with my wife. Just put on the tie in a moment, Ariana. You’d better put on my tie first, then continue your makeup activities.”

She smiled. The woman turned around. Standing up, then grabbed the tie that Samuel had been holding. A little tiptoe, then looked up to be able to put the tie around Samuel’s neck. Then start winding until finally installed perfectly.

“Your tie is in order, Mr. Samuel,” said Ariana.

Samuel nodded. Not letting his wife move, he asked her to check what he had just installed.

“Tighten it a bit, Una. The tie feels a bit loose.”

Ariana then looked up again. Just as she was about to check the tie he was wearing, Samuel took the opportunity to lean forward and suddenly kissed Ariana.

“Thanks, my wife, for helping with the tie.”

“Samuel!” shrieked Ariana. What Samuel had complained about earlier was just the man’s trick to take advantage of a tight spot. “You like to prank people. Ask nicely when you can.”

“Are you sure you’ll get it if you ask?” asked the man, rolling his eyes coquettishly. “I’m not sure what you’re saying.”

Ariana sighed in annoyance. Without saying a word, he immediately cupped Samuel’s cheeks. Pulling forward to be able to grab the man’s lips and then land his lips there.

Samuel’s eyes widened. He had not anticipated that his wife would suddenly kiss him. Not to mention Ariana, who deliberately pushed Samuel’s body so that she leaned against the edge of the dressing table.

Resigned to what Ariana was doing, Samuel just felt how her wife’s lips moved on top of hers. Starting from movements that feel massaging, then gradually turning hotter and more passionate.

Ariana crushed. Repeatedly. She kissed the corner of Samuel’s lips. Biting him non-stop. It was as if what he was doing was proof that she could keep up with all the games Samuel had given her now.

While Samuel just enjoyed the warm caress of Ariana’s tongue between her lips. Feeling how his wife was biting, sucking, and moving her lips freely made Samuel almost close. And when the man began to lull, Ariana deliberately released their lips together.

“Jeez, Ariana!” Samuel protested. The man was not willing when his wife suddenly unraveled their hot kiss.

“You don’t need much,” Ariana said casually. “If it continues, it is certain that it will end up in the blanket.”

“But you bear too much.” Once again, the man continued his protest.

“Rather than nothing? Which one do you choose?”

Samuel could not move anymore. Thank goodness his wife wanted to start first. Usually, Ariana is always shy. In fact, on every occasion, Samuel always starts first.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Samuel seemed to be waiting for Ariana to resume her makeup activities until it occurred to the man’s desire to ask a question Ariana, who was busy dressing up in front of the mirror.

“What are you wearing? It’s like you rub a lot of it on your face,” the man asked in front of the mirror between his wife’s activities.

“I’m currently using skin care, Samuel. Just make a layer before putting on makeup. Do you want to try it?”

Samuel shook her head. Not the least bit interested in what Ariana had just offered him.

“I don’t need skincare now. But need you who always care for me.”

Ariana laughed again. She was already accustomed to listening to her husband’s ravings that often sounded absurd.

“If you want, I’ll help put it on.”

“No, ah,” Samuel refused. “My face is pretty from birth. So there’s no need to mess things up.”

“All right. If so, you’d better go to the dining room first. I’ll follow in a moment.”

Samuel complied. After putting on his coat, the man went down first to the dining room. Meanwhile, Ariana returned to finish her activities. It didn’t take long for her to catch up and find her husband busy reading the news without tasting the breakfast he had prepared earlier.

“Why haven’t you eaten the fried rice? My cooking isn’t good?” asked Ariana shortly after sitting down.

Samuel shook her head. The man then answered his wife’s question.

“Was about to eat right away. But the fried rice is really hot. Could he have a fever?”

God, God. Look, whose husband behaves like this? No wonder Ariana often shook her head.

Eating their breakfast quietly, Samuel and Ariana hurried off to work as soon as they were done. As soon as they got to the office, they immediately separated. Ariana was assigned this morning to prepare a meeting room that Pakuwon Group executives will attend. The plan is for them to come to hear about the business developments that are being run together.

“Ariana, if I say you and Mr. Samuel often go abroad,” said Chacha. The woman was specifically helping Ariana to prepare the meeting room.

“Why should Mr. Samuel and I often go abroad?” he asked, confused.

“Yes, it’s delicious. All employees get souvenirs from abroad. So as you know, it is not the first time he has worked abroad. But, when he married you, we-we can all feel special gifts from Mr. Samuel. What does that mean? You brought hockey.”

Ariana smiled and then shook her head repeatedly. But there is also truth in what Chacha said. Previously, where had the ice cube boss given gifts to employees like yesterday? I don’t know what made him suddenly change.

“If I look at it now,” continued Chacha. “Mr. Samuel is like someone who loves you, you know. Not like someone who pretends to be married.”

Ariana immediately raised her head. Walked over to Chacha, then sat beside the woman.

“So that you know, Mr. Samuel even ended our marriage agreement.”

“What do you mean? Soon your relationship will end? Do you want a divorce? Is that it?” Chacha guessed curiously. As the only friend who knows the story Ariana is living, she doesn’t want to miss any news from her friend.

“No!” protested Ariana. “Mr. Samuel even asked me to be a real wife, and he also asked that from now on, learn to like and love him like a couple in general.”

“Good grief!”

Chacha exclaimed with wide eyes. He never thought that, in the end, Ariana could conquer the heart of Samuel Walters.

“This fixes Mr. Samuel falling in love with you, Ariana. If not, how could he order you to be a real wife and ask him to learn to love him? Then, how about you? Do you want it or not? Don’t say you refuse. It’s really stupid if you refuse windfall.”

“Yes, Rezeki.”

“Well, just imagine. Rich, well-established, smart, handsome, the dream of almost all women. And he wants you to be a real wife. A wife who always accompanies him. Then, what would you call it if not luck?”

“Yes, I also didn’t expect Mr. Samuel to end up like this.”

“But so far, do you have feelings for Mr. Samuel?” Chacha inquired. I’m also curious about Ariana’s feelings for her boss so far.

“As you said, Mr. Samuel is the ideal husband. He —-”

“No need to beat around the bush,” Chacha interrupted hastily. “I’m asking, do you have feelings or not? Or, do you not love Mr. Samuel? The answer is only yes or no, Ariana. Why are you giving such a long explanation?”

Chacha’s words sounded very to the point and so striking. Meanwhile, Ariana looked confused as to what answer she should give.

“How? You can’t answer at that time.”

“I-I —”

“Yeah, it’s really hard to admit feelings.”

“I, well… I see.”

“So what?” Chacha continues to chase. After a while, he was annoyed by Ariana’s behavior.

“Yes, when asked about likes, I like Mr. Samuel. It’s a lie if I say I don’t like it. Where is he? As long as he is a husband, he cares about me. But when it comes to love, I don’t know whether I love it or not. So, yes, just walking .”

“Then, during your honeymoon, did you do that or not?” Chacha’s questions are increasingly grazed everywhere. He seems very happy to dig up more information from his best friend.

“So what do you mean?”

“Ah, don’t act innocent, Ariana. You and Mr. Samuel are already married. We’ve been on vacation together. Even now that you’re husband and wife, I’m not sure if you two haven’t done anything. That’s why I asked, you and Mr. Samuel are already like that. or not yet?”

Chacha leaned his face. With narrowed eyes, the woman waited for an answer from Ariana.

“Yes, I did.”

Chacha smiled widely. He was so excited that he pinched Ariana’s cheeks until they blushed.

“Chacha! What the hell? Pinches hurt.”

“Gosh, my friends! I never thought I’d already feel what is called heaven on earth. The seal was finally opened. Luckily the one who opened the seal was the chosen one, not a jerk like Angga.”

Hearing Chacha speak happily without being censored again, Ariana immediately covered her best friend’s mouth with her palm. Chacha and Samuel have become one species that, when speaking, like not to be braked and doesn’t look around the place first.

“Noisy, Cha.”

“Yes, sorry. But what about Mr. Samuel? Isn’t it fun to play in bed?”

Ariana glared back. He shut his friend’s mouth again louder than before.

“Shut up, no!” Ariana ordered, and Chacha answered immediately with a nod. “Later, the others will hear you talking loud!”

“This is it; you don’t have to wait for love, Ariana,” Chacha whispered. “That’s it, just gas. It won’t hurt to be the wife and daughter-in-law of the Walters family. I pray that the Walters Junior launching will make Mrs. Arabella even happier in a little while.”

***

Just like what had been scheduled, in the afternoon, Ariana and Samuel attended a meeting with Pakuwon. Today, as the project leader and adviser, Ariana is tasked with presenting the progress of their business.

Everything Ariana explained in detail and carefully. Samuel was even amazed because the responsibility given to his wife was done properly and as it should have been. It was not wrong for William to appoint Ariana to be involved in this big tender.

“As the Pakuwon representative, I am pleased with Mrs. Ariana’s explanation of the progress of the project we are currently working on. I hope our two companies’ project can go according to plan and be completed on time, as we all hope.”

As soon as they finished presenting the meeting materials, Samuel and Ariana immediately escorted their guests to the lobby of the building. As soon as Pakuwon’s party left, they decided to return to the room immediately.

“It’s nice to see you chairing today’s meeting. Pakuwon’s party is really satisfied to hear your explanation,” said Samuel. The man never stopped appreciating what his wife had done in the meeting room earlier.

“Thank you. This is also thanks to your help explaining some things I don’t understand.”

“I think we are suitable to be partners in all fields.”

Ariana nodded. Incredibly, he agreed with Samuel’s words just now.

“Already, mate.”

Both of them laughed. Then, not long after, Ariana left the room because Axton had come over to deliver a report to Samuel.

After Axton gave his report, Samuel returned to focus on completing several waiting work deadlines. The man immediately drowned himself, dwelling on piles of documents that inevitably had to be completed soon.

Just a few minutes later, there was a knock on Samuel’s door. Followed by the entry of someone into the man’s room.

“Why else, Ariana? Do you have anything to report?” Samuel asked without even looking at the other person. The man’s concentration was still focused on what he was doing now.

However, instead of hearing an answer, only the sound of shoes tapping on tiles grew louder and louder. It indicated that the owner’s position was close to where Samuel was sitting. Then, a very familiar voice sounded in Samuel’s ears. The voice of someone he had not heard in a long time.

“Honey.”

Samuel gasped. The man immediately lifted his face. At the same second, he was transfixed by the figure of someone who was now standing perfectly in front of him while flashing a smile.

“Valerie.”
