Billionaire Love Affair with the Surrogate

Seventeen

Ch. 17 / 153 Mar 13, 2026

She went to the elevator and pressed his office floor. When the elevator arrived, she stepped out and marched towards Andrei’s office. The secretary and employees who saw her bowed their heads and greeted, and neither one of them stopped her. When she arrived at the door, she opened it without a second thought.

She found Andrei behind his table and working with his eyebrows meeting, looking really troubled. The problem the Castellanos made was not a little thing for the company, so he was really in a tight situation.

Ellen scoffed at his sight.

“You are having so many problems right now, but do you know who is the cause of this misfortune?” Her voice sounded in the room. Andrei raised his head to look at his grandmother. He was surprised at her appearance in his office so suddenly.

“Grandma?”

He had been burying himself in work these days. The company was impacted greatly, aside from solving the problems, he needs to also find funds and investors for his ongoing projects.

So he was also bothered by her words. He does not know why the Castellanos would suddenly cut their support. The company was caught off guard and was shuffling to and about in search to sustain its activities.

“What do you mean?” He asked as his eyebrows crossed more.

“You are really foolish. Don’t know how to put a leash on your woman, now she is lurking and making trouble everywhere.” She said with despise and disgust in her voice.

Andrei was confused by her words. Now how could his wife be involved in this situation?

“Grandma, stop talking riddles and tell it to me directly. I have so many things to do right now.” He irritatingly spoke as he rubbed his temples.

“I talked to Damon Castellano, and he said he wanted you to divorce Anya.” She said directly.

Ellen said these words with disgust in her voice. From the start, she never liked that woman. She is such a tempting and flirtatious woman, getting the attention of every person she meets, her husband, and finally, her grandson. And she even ended up marrying this precious grandson of hers, what a lucky woman, isn’t she? Ellen does not know where that tramp even came from. Acting like a righteous, innocent, and good girl, but she knew she was hiding her claws and dirt inside.

Andrei froze for a moment. He did not expect that Anya would have something to do with Damon Castellano. He was stunned, but gradually, it turned into anger. That woman is really a whore.

Ellen saw the anger in Andrei’s eyes and countenance, so she pushed. “Why are you still keeping that woman on your side? Go and divorce her!”

“Why should I? So that bitch will be happy?!” He impulsively said as his mind was clouded by anger, hate, jealousy, and disdain. He clenched his fist tightly.

How could his ego and pride withstand this hit? His wife just cheated on him not just once but countless of times.

“Are you crazy?! Do you still say that after the Castellanos' actions? If you continue that, then say goodbye to the company!” Ellen exclaimed in a fit of anger.

Andrei was pulled out of his thoughts as the Castellanos, and the company was brought up. No, he couldn’t lose this company. He worked hard and revived this, his sacrifices and efforts should not be put in vain.

He closed his eyes tightly as he leaned on his chair. He felt he was choked with anger Now she is having an affair with someone more powerful than him. Could he only swallow and accept this humiliation?

His eyes reddened. That woman was such a hussy. She is continuously making trouble for him after her infidelity. What a face she had.

Ellen saw this and quickly pushed his buttons more.

“Would you sacrifice everything for a worthless woman? Remember where you started and how we suffered when the company was on the edge! You can’t afford to offend the Castellanos!”

Andrei opened his eyes and his gaze darkened as he made his decision.

“I will.” He said with gritted teeth. When Ellen heard this, she scoffed at him.

“You better be. I will call the Castellanos now, and work on the divorce quickly. It should be as soon as possible. We can’t afford to have these problems prolonged.” She spoke. After this, she gave one last look at the foolish man and sighed. She walked out of his office to clean up that woman’s mess.

Andrei was left in his office, boiling in anger. He swept all the things on his desk in spite.

After giving her orders, Ellen left the company building and entered her car. She took out her phone to dial Damon Castellano to tell him the news. It rang for a moment when it was finally picked up.

But the voice on the other end was his secretary.

“Greeting to Madame Davids. How may I help you?” The secretary said and greeted me politely.

“Deliver my words to the president. Tell him Andrei has responded positively and is processing the divorce. I hope the Davids and the Castellanos will have a consensus?” She asked. The secretary heard this and was excused for a while.

“I will deliver your words. I will get back to you in a while, Ma’am.” He said as he put the phone on hold. Ellen was slightly dissatisfied for being put aside, but she controlled her temper as she remembered that the other side was more powerful. The strong overpower the weak. She knew this clearly that is why since she was young, she strived

for power. Only when you are at the top can you do anything you wish. No one would dare to slight and offend you. Until in this old age, Ellen was extremely jealous of those noble and powerful families, more powerful than them. They need to put more effort so that they can step on those who dare to slight them.

Ellen thought of this as malice and cunningness flashed in her eyes.

When she was buried in her thoughts, the person on the other line came back and suddenly sounded.

“Mrs. Davids.” Ellen was taken back from her reverie as she listened to the words of the secretary.

“Mr. Castellano said that the effect would commence once the divorce is done and is closed. In the meantime, he wouldn’t be doing his offense, but he wouldn’t be continuing the operations and partnership with the Davids Group of Company.” The secretary delivered the president’s words clearly and efficiently.

Ellen gripped the phone tightly. The man is really a cunning and sharp businessman, profits and advantages first before anything else. Ellen thought of this and realized it was inevitable, so she released her heavy breath and answered.

“Alright, we will deliver the news soon.” Then she hung up without saying adding more. She sneered and cursed at the Davids bad luck and fortune, that woman who is named Anya.
