The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 101
Camila’s POVMorning sunlight slips quietly through the hospital curtains. For the first time in days, I wake up without hearing alarms, shouting voices, or running footsteps outside the room.Mom is already awake. She’s sitting against her pillow, staring out the window with a blanket wrapped around her shoulders. “You scared me.” My voice comes out softer than I expect. She turns and smiles. “I know.”“I’m sorry.” I immediately shake my head. “No.” “You don’t get to apologize.” She laughs quietly. “I don’t?” “You almost gave me a heart attack.” She tilts her head. “That dramatic?” “Very.”She reaches over and gently pats my hand. “I’ll try not to almost disappear again.” I pretend to think about it. “Hmm.” “Accepted.” “Barely.” She laughs again. The sound fills the room so naturally that tears almost reach my eyes.I’ve missed hearing her laugh. Really laugh. Not force it. Not fake it. Just… laugh. “You know…” She studies my face. “You still pout exactly like you did when you were e
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 100
Alejandro’s POVThe hospital no longer feels like a place that heals people. It feels like a battlefield where everyone keeps pretending everything is normal while fear quietly walks through every hallway beside us.I stand outside Maria’s room. Two security guards remain at the door. Another patrol circles the hallway every fifteen minutes. Still… it doesn’t feel like enough. Camila quietly walks out carrying two paper cups of coffee. “I brought you one.” I accept it without taking my eyes off the corridor.“Thank you.” She studies my face. “You’re thinking.” “I am.” “About the attack?” I nod slowly. “Something doesn’t fit.” She hands me the coffee. “What do you mean?” I lower my voice. “If they wanted revenge…” She waits. “Why didn’t they take Maria?”Camila blinks. “They tried.” “Did they?” Confusion slowly replaces exhaustion in her eyes. I continue carefully. “She fought back.” “Yes.” “They ran.” “They heard security.” I nod once. “I know.” “But…” I stare toward Maria’s room. “…t
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 99
Camila’s POVThe drive back to the hospital feels endless. Every red light feels personal, every passing second steals another breath from my lungs, and all I can hear is Ethan’s voice repeating the same impossible words. Maria is missing.“No…” I grip the dashboard so tightly my fingers ache. “No, no… she was sleeping.” Alejandro keeps one hand on the steering wheel. The other quietly finds mine. “We’ll find her.” I shake my head. “What if we’re too late?” “We won’t be.”“You don’t know that.” “I know we’re not giving up.” His voice never rises. It stays calm. Steady. The exact opposite of the panic tearing through me. The moment we reach the hospital, chaos greets us. Police officers. Hospital security. Doctors running through hallways.Nurses speaking urgently into radios. Karen rushes toward us first. “Camila.” “What happened?” Karen’s face is pale. “The nurse stepped out for less than two minutes.” Brian appears behind her. “When she came back…” “The room was empty.” I feel the f
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 98
Alejandro’s POVThe velvet ring box feels heavier than it should. It rests quietly in my hand while Camila keeps looking at it, and the smile slowly spreading across her face almost makes me forget everything waiting outside this office.She lets out the tiniest laugh. “…You kept it.” I nod. “I always planned to.” Her eyes soften. “You never threw it away.” “I couldn’t.” She takes one careful step closer. “I thought…” She smiles shyly. “…I thought you’d hidden it somewhere.”“I did.” I hold up the box. “In my desk.” She laughs. “…You’re impossible.” “I’ve heard that before.” Her gaze never leaves the ring box. Not because of the ring. Because of what it means. Hope. A future. A promise.She slowly reaches toward it. “…Can I?” I place it gently in her hands. She opens the lid. The diamond catches the afternoon light. For a long moment… neither of us says anything. Then she looks up at me. “So…” A teasing smile appears. “…Ask.”I blink. “What?” She laughs. “You heard me.” “I did.” “So a
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 97
Camila’s POVI spend the entire morning thinking about one sentence. I would’ve followed until you let me walk beside you again. No matter how many times I replay those words… they never sound like obligation. They sound like choice.I quietly stop outside Alejandro’s office. The door isn’t completely closed. A thin line of light stretches across the hallway. I gently push it open. He never heard me coming. The office is silent. Company files cover the desk. Financial reports. Audit folders. Coffee cups that have long since gone cold.Alejandro is asleep. One arm rests beneath his head. The other still loosely holds a pen. I smile before I even realize it. “…You fell asleep working again.” He doesn’t move. Dark circles sit beneath his eyes. His tie is loose. His sleeves are rolled to his elbows.For someone who lost control of half his company… he looks strangely peaceful. I quietly walk closer. One report catches my attention. My name. Highlighted several times. Another folder. Secur
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 96
Alejandro’s POVSomething feels wrong before I even open my eyes. The house is too quiet. The silence presses against my chest until I instinctively reach toward the other side of the bed. Empty. I sit upright immediately. “Camila?” No answer.I throw the blanket aside and walk into the hallway. The guest room door stands open. The light is still on. My heartbeat stumbles. “Camila?” Still nothing. I step inside. The room is empty. The bed hasn’t been slept in.One wardrobe door hangs slightly open. A cold wave rushes through me. “No…” I look around desperately. Her favorite sweater is gone. The small blue travel bag she always kept in the closet… gone. Every thought crashes into the next.The torn photographs. The threats. The goodbye look she’d been wearing for days. “No.” I break into a run. My footsteps thunder through the hallway. “Camila!” Mrs. Harper’s bedroom door opens halfway. She blinks sleepily. “Alejandro?” “Have you seen her?”Her expression changes instantly. “…Oh no.” I

Alejandro's POV"What exactly is so funny?"The moment the words leave my mouth, the entire table goes silent.Good, because judging by the expression on Camila's face, whatever happened before I arrived wasn't funny at all.Several women suddenly become very interested in their drinks,others avoid
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 5
Camila's POVI hate everything about this.I hate the contract sitting inside my purse. I hate the black SUV carrying me away from the apartment I've lived in for the last four years. Most of all, I hate the fact that less than twenty-four hours after signing that contract, my mother's treatment pl
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 4
Alejandro's POVI don't expect her to come back.Not because the offer isn't tempting enough. Half a million dollars in treatment and a settlement large enough to change someone's life would tempt almost anyone.I don't expect her to come back because she's Camila Reyes.The woman who looked me in
The Billionaire's Sixty-Day Wife CHAPTER 3
Camila's POVHospitals are strange places when the person you're worried about is on the other side of the bed.I've spent years walking these hallways in scrubs, moving from patient to patient, crisis to crisis, always knowing what to do next. But the moment I step onto the cardiac floor as a daug
