A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 96: Sophia's Return
The private investigator's report arrived on a Tuesday.Xander read it first, his face growing darker with each page. Ella watched him from across the kitchen table, Clara asleep in her arms, the morning light streaming through the window. She knew something was wrong before he spoke. Could see it in the tension of his shoulders, the set of his jaw."She's out.""Who?""Sophia." He set down the report. "She was released last week. Early parole for good behavior."
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 95: Paranoia or Reality?
The photograph sat on the kitchen counter like a threat.Ella couldn't stop looking at it. Every time she walked past, her eyes were drawn to the image of her daughter in that incubator, tubes and wires keeping her alive, someone watching from the shadows. The word on the back echoed in her mind. *Soon.* Soon what? Soon they would strike again? Soon they would take what they'd come for? Soon they would destroy everything Ella had fought to build?Xander had called the police within hours of finding the envelope. Two officers had come to the house, taken statements, examined the photograph, asked questions Ella couldn't answer. No, she didn't know who had sent it. No, she hadn't seen anyone suspicious. No, she couldn'
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 94: Tiny Miracle
The wheelchair felt strange beneath her, but Ella didn't complain.She was out of the ICU. She was awake, alive, and on her way to see her daughter. Nothing else mattered. Xander pushed her through the long corridors, his hands steady on the handles, his presence a quiet comfort at her back. The hospital was bright this time of morning, sunlight streaming through the windows, casting patterns on the floor.The NICU was quieter than she'd expected.Soft lights, soft voices, the gentle hum of machines designed to keep tiny bodies alive. Nurses moved between incubators, checking monitors, adjusting blankets.
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 93: The Wait
The chair had become an extension of his body.Xander couldn't remember the last time he'd stood up. Hours had blurred into each other, marked only by the changing patterns of light through the window and the quiet shuffling of nurses on their rounds. Ella's hand rested in his, warm now instead of cold, her fingers occasionally twitching in her sleep. The monitors beeped their steady rhythm, proof that she was still fighting.He talked to her. Had been talking for hours, his voice hoarse, his throat raw. He told her about the baby—about Clara's tiny fingers, her shock of dark hair, the way she'd gripped his finger when he'd touched her palm. He told her about the house by the ocean, about the garden her mother
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 92: The Fight
The operating room doors had closed behind Ella hours ago.Xander had lost count of how many. He stood in the hallway, his back against the cold wall, his hands shoved into his pockets. The fluorescent lights hummed above him, casting everything in a sickly glow. Nurses passed by without looking at him. Doctors came and went with clipboards and grim faces. No one stopped. No one offered news.He was alone.The waiting room was empty at this hour. Families had gone home, visitors had left, the chaos of the emergency room had faded into the quiet rhythm of the night shift. But Xander couldn't sit in those pl
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 91: Risk
The weeks that followed were the hardest of Ella's life.Not because of the fear—though there was plenty of that, lurking in the shadows, waiting to pounce at every quiet moment. But because of the helplessness. The waiting. The not knowing whether her daughter would survive.The doctors had been clear: the pregnancy was high-risk. The baby was small, the placenta wasn't functioning properly, and every day was a battle. There were no guarantees. No promises. Only hope.Ella had been put on bed rest. Complete bed rest, the doctor said. No getting up except for bathroom trips. No stairs. No stress. No life.She hated it.Not the resting—she was tired enough to appreciate that. But the loss of control. The feeling that her body had betrayed her, that she couldn't protect the child growing inside her.Xander had moved his work to the bedroom, setting up a desk by the window, taking calls in whispers so he wouldn't wake her. He'd hire
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 7: The Retreat - 1
I felt like an idiot.That was the thought that followed me home from the restaurant, that kept me company through the sleepless hours of early morning, that sat beside me while I helped Mom with her breakfast and pretended everything was fine. It was the thought that echoed in my skull every time
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 6: The First Date
The car that arrived at my apartment at exactly eight o'clock was longer than my entire bedroom.I know because I measured once, when I was trying to figure out if I could fit a real bed instead of the twin cot I'd had since childhood. The answer was no. The car would have fit. My bed wouldn't.I s
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 5: Owing a Debt
Black Enterprises rose from the Manhattan skyline like a monument to everything I would never have.Forty-seven floors of glass and steel, catching the afternoon sun and throwing it back at the world in arrogant defiance. The lobby alone was bigger than my entire apartment building—marble floors po
A BILLIONAIRE'S PROMISE Chapter 4: An Expensive Apology
I must have stared at that scarf for an hour.The silk pooled through my fingers like liquid moonlight, impossibly soft, impossibly beautiful. Deep blues that shifted to silver when the light caught them. Hand-rolled edges that spoke of craftsmanship I couldn't even name. I didn't know designer lab
