The Billionaire’s Surrogate Wife

The day before, Darwin had been a little surprised. He, who had just returned home and had only been home for a few minutes, suddenly received a phone call from Samuel.

If you look and examine, the time at that time was already 12 o’clock in the evening. Darwin, of course, wondered what Samuel wanted to contact him at this time of night.

However, fearing that there was something urgent, he quickly accepted the call. And it turns out, what Darwin suspected did happen. On her phone, Samuel asked Darwin to immediately pick her up at a bar because she was no longer able to walk home alone.

At that moment Darwin immediately followed. As soon as he got to Alexis, he could see how miserable his cousin’s condition was. The chatter, and the words that go everywhere, indicate that the man is currently really at the lowest point in his life.

Samuel repeatedly heard pleading. Really asking Darwin to tell where his wife is.

Not only that, even when he came home and arrived at Darwin’s house, Samuel still did the same thing. Even worse, the man put his ego aside by prostrating at Darwin’s feet, hoping that his heart would melt and would grant his request to show Ariana’s whereabouts.

“I beg you, Win. I’m really asking for help.”

I don’t know how many times his cousin has said the same sentence. Until finally, when he returned to his room, Darwin thought about it.

The uneasiness, the guilt, the jumble continued until morning. Waking up from sleep, Darwin was again pensive. Thinking and weighing what action he should take.

Making up his mind after much thought, Darwin decided to do something about it. For this reason, after finishing breakfast, instead of accompanying Samuel back to the hotel, he instead brought his cousin to the residence where Ariana had been staying for several days.

And, as expected, when Samuel and Ariana finally met again, both of them immediately fell into a state of emotion. Samuel didn’t even stop kissing. While Ariana, looked so tightly hugging her husband’s body.

Darwin’s eyes filled with tears. Participate in the euphoria of happiness that his cousin is feeling. To hell if after this Aunt Arabella got angry. After all, what he did was solely for the good of Samuel.

“Do you both miss or are you playing telenovelas? The hug is really long. Use it over and over again.”

Darwin, who was getting tired of seeing the intimate scene in front of him, immediately protested. Inevitably these words made Samuel turn away, then walk towards the man who had helped her and then burst into a hug.

“Win, thank you very much for your generosity,” Samuel said softly while continuing to hug and pat Darwin on the shoulder.

“Don’t be shy. I’m sorry I made it difficult for you,” Darwin replied after breaking Samuel’s embrace. Throw a smile, then back to talking again. “I’m glad you two met again.”

Samuel nodded, then turned to Ariana who was behind her. Lend a hand. Invite his wife to come closer.

“Me and Ariana don’t know how to reply to you. I’m sure, after this Mama will definitely be angry and punish you.”

Samuel memorized her mother’s behavior. He also believed that Darwin’s actions would have unavoidable consequences.

“Don’t worry about it,” said Darwin. “I don’t mind if I have to stay in Korea for a long time. Instead of returning to Indonesia just for an arranged marriage?”

Samuel, who had been sad before, now laughed again. For this one Darwin said, he knew very well that his cousin also accepted the challenge of managing a company in Korea because he wanted to avoid his father’s request to arrange an arranged marriage with the son of a Salim Group business partner.

“But, I promise, if you go too far, I will help you.”

Darwin nodded. Because he had to go to work, he chose to say goodbye first. Give Samuel and Ariana time to let each other go.

“In that case, I’ll go to work first. You can rest here. Later in the afternoon or evening, I’ll stop by and bring your things from the hotel.”

When Darwin left, Ariana immediately pulled Samuel inside. Taking the man away to the room without the slightest thought of Rachel who had been watching them both.

Arriving at the room, Ariana hugged Samuel tightly again. Releasing the longing that still remained in him. Not in the slightest gave her husband the opportunity to move or just change positions.

“I miss you,” whispered Ariana still hugging Samuel’s body.

“Me too. I almost went crazy looking for you. Even though it’s only been a few days, it doesn’t feel very good.”

Ariana nodded. Unraveling his embrace, then pulled his husband to sit on the couch. There, he returned to cling intimately. Shamelessly so spoiled. Though he had never been like this before.

“But, Ken. Won’t Mama be angry because Darwin has helped us both to meet?”

Samuel shrugged. He couldn’t predict his mother’s attitude when she found out she had found Ariana. In fact, they are back together because Darwin helped them.

“We’ll just think about Mama. Now, let’s just miss each other first. Don’t you want to hear about some of the things that happened to me while you weren’t there?”

Ariana nodded enthusiastically. Of course he was interested in listening to her husband tell the story. After all, there were also many things he wanted to tell Samuel about things that the man didn’t know beforehand.

***

As Darwin said before, after work, the man stopped by Ariana’s residence again. As if not bored, the man again brought various kinds of food menus as usual, as if the assistant at Ariana’s residence did not provide food for the occupants of the house.

Erwnin then invited his cousin and wife to eat together while telling stories. All topics they discussed while enjoying dinner.

“So, Aunt Arabella reported Rama and Valerie to the authorities?” asked Darwin curiously.

Because of its remote position, it often misses a lot of news. Usually, it was Randa who liked to share stories or information about important events that occurred in Indonesia.

“Yes. Mama is suing him on charges of sabotage, defamation and unpleasant acts. Maybe, Rama should feel a prison sentence of up to one or two years,” explained Samuel.

Darwin nodded. Actually feel sorry for what happened to Rama. As a cousin, actually there is a feeling of not having the heart. However, since this was the man’s own fault, he was obliged to take responsibility for it.

“Aunt Arabella really doesn’t discriminate, does she? No matter her nephews, siblings, cousins, even children, if she’s wrong, she’ll still be bullied and punished to be held accountable for her actions.”

“You don’t know, Win. Rama’s mother begged my mother to drop all charges. But Mama doesn’t want to and doesn’t care. It’s different from Uncle Artayudha. She seems to have given up and doesn’t want to know what happened to Rama anymore. .”

Even though Rama has always been involved in arguments and never once got along, Samuel still considers Rama to be his cousin. Can’t bear to see the man actually caught in a legal case. However, if it is given a deterrent effect, it is feared that Rama will not realize it and will continue to be lulled into realizing his ambition by justifying any means.

“Then what about Valerie herself?” Darwin asked again. Especially for this woman, of course she knows how Samuel’s relationship with her model lover was. Darwin remembered how infatuated Samuel was, even complied when Valerie treated him arbitrarily.

“Just the same,” said Samuel. “How could Mama ever discriminate. It’s even worse because Valerie finally knows that all this time it’s Mama who has been controlling her life.”

Darwin chuckled. Specifically for this one story, Randa had heard it directly from Randa the other day. He also shook his head after knowing how important Arabella had played in his son’s entire life journey.

In order to ensure the best for Samuel, Arabella was willing to do anything. Her aunt really didn’t want to take a wrong step at all.

“If your life story were a film, your mother would be the greatest director ever, Ken. Your life was made full of plot twists that really made us all not expect and didn’t think about it.”

Samuel nodded. Totally agree with what Darwin said. Until this second, how could he have thought that his mother arranged his life in such a way. However, he is very, very mature.

“I don’t know what my mother’s brain is made of. Maybe because she is so smart, Uncle Antonie makes her her favorite son-in-law.”

“Of course! Because you have a smart brain, Mama is not easily instigated or tricked by other people.”

From another corner of the room, suddenly a familiar female voice sounded in everyone’s ears. Turning their heads at the same time, they all found that Arabella had already stood up, even walking towards Samuel and Darwin who were still sitting in the dining room.

“Mama.” Samuel just exclaimed that she was surprised to find her mother’s figure now in South Korea, even in front of her eyes. He was sure, there must be someone who reported the whereabouts of him who had managed to meet with Ariana.

“Yes, it’s Mama. Who do you think you are? An angel of death? Why are you so surprised.”

Arabella then drew closer. Take a seat on the dining table. A second later, the woman’s gaze darted. Pay attention to the menus of food served on the table.

“Given expensive chefs. Prepare delicious nutritious food, instead buy food that is not clear out there!” the woman scolded.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Darwin immediately looked down. Of course he was being teased by Arabella right now. But, more than that, he also seemed anxious because after this he would surely receive a more terrible scolding and perhaps be accompanied by a severe punishment. Of course, Darwin did not forget that he was the one who helped Samuel meet Ariana.

“How are you? Nice to meet you?” asked Arabella without looking at her interlocutor. The woman was even busy herself taking some cakes neatly arranged on the dining table.

“Ma …. why Mama can be here?”

“Yes, because I want to meet you in person! Willing to fly directly from Indonesia to Korea, I just want to teach you and Darwin a lesson!”

Samuel stared in frustration. It’s all wrong to have to face his mother like what.

“Samuel can explain. This isn’t Darwin’s fault, Ma. It was Samuel who begged him to show her where Ariana was.”

Lillian glanced. Raising one eyebrow high, the woman was heard clucking.

“Just a few days apart, you’re already distraught like a madman. You weakling! What kind of leader is mentally weak? In the past, Mama and Papa were even separated for months. No one is confused like you.”

“Mom!” Samuel interrupted. Where did he accept being belittled like this. “The situation is clearly different. In the past, Mama and Papa were separated, but they could still keep in touch by phone. They could still exchange news with each other. As for Samuel? It’s a waste of a day to call. Sending news via email can’t be done at all.”

Samuel was certainly right. If only Ariana had separated but she could still greet each other or communicate with each other via telephone or the like, maybe she wouldn’t be disoriented. The problem is, he and Ariana have lost contact with each other. So you can’t know each other’s condition.

“Ah, no excuses,” said Arabella. Where would he be blamed? No way! Arabella then turned to Darwin. Throwing a glare, the middle-aged woman smirked. “You must be responsible. Aunt will give you punishment!”

Darwin sighed softly. Instead of answering, he chose to nod and then looked down. He realized that he was wrong because he had leaked the secret to Samuel.

“Mom, Darwin wasn’t wrong,” Samuel said once again. He felt bad because his cousin would get into trouble. “Anyway. Mama uses all kinds of strange punishments.”

Arabella took a sip of the lemon tea that was in front of her. Grinning, the woman spoke casually. “You should know that Mama did this all for the good of you and Ariana.”

“What kindness? Separate everything. Where do you not use excuse me to split it up.”

“Just so you know. Mama deliberately told Ariana to go far away because she wanted to protect her.”

Samuel blinked. Suddenly his brain slowed down after hearing what his mother had just said.

“Protecting how do you mean Mama? What’s wrong with Ariana?”

Arabella sighed. It’s understandable that his son doesn’t understand.

“You see… at that time, you were having problems with Rama and your ex-boyfriend, that is. At the beginning they deliberately attacked you by issuing horrendous news. Mama thought, if their plan failed to make you miserable, it is possible that Ariana will be the next target. . That’s why, Mama —”

“Deliberately sending Ariana overseas to protect her from being targeted by Rama and Valerie?” Samuel guessed.

“Right!” said Arabella as she snapped her fingers. “So, Mama isn’t evil. In fact, she wants to protect you both.” Arabella then positioned herself facing Ariana who was indeed sitting next to her. Grabbing his son-in-law’s wrist then smiled. “How could Mama also bear to see Mama’s favorite daughter-in-law in trouble. You two are the ones who think mostly negatively.”

Ariana, who had been deliberately silent because she was traumatized by Arabella’s spray, now breathed a sigh of relief. Landing a hug. Then hugged Arabella tightly. In the end, he realized that there was a hidden meaning to the punishment his mother-in-law had given him.

Samuel also felt guilty. After thinking about it, it turns out that the mother is doing this because she wants to protect herself as well

“Forgive Samuel, Ma,” Samuel begged sincerely. Full of guilt he asked his mother to forgive his actions.

“It’s ok. Mama already memorized your behavior. However, even though you and Ariana already know, the punishment must still be carried out.”

Just feeling happy, Samuel sighed again. Apparently his mother really likes to make him distraught.

“Indeed, Mama, what kind of punishment do you want for Samuel and Ariana?”

Arabella grinned. Pulling the corners of her lips high to form a meaningful smile, the woman answered loudly.

“Since all the problems have been resolved and there are no more lies between us all, please give Mama and Papa grandchildren as soon as possible. So, make the most of your time here until it’s finally time to go back to Indonesia.”

Finished saying that, Arabella’s gaze turned to Darwin. He couldn’t forget his one nephew.

“And you Darwin, as punishment for helping Samuel, starting next month, you are allowed to return to Indonesia.”

Darwin smiled broadly. The same thing was shown by Samuel and Ariana. Now, the two of them have to focus on their honeymoon so they can immediately give Arabella a future grandchild.
