The Billoniare's Fake Husband Not ready to say Goodbye
Quin's POV"No."The word tore from my throat before my brain even caught up. It hung in the sterile air like a challenge, like a plea no one could answer.The doctor kept speaking—his voice low, measured and professional. Nurses moved around the bed with practiced efficiency. Machines hummed and beeped their indifferent rhythm. Somewhere behind me, my mother’s sobs fractured the room. But all of it faded beneath the relentless ringing in my ears.No. No. No. No.This wasn’t happening.Billie was sleeping. That was all. She’d pushed herself too hard, fought too long. She was exhausted and needed to rest. Any second now her eyelids would flutter open, and she’d give me that trademark half-smirk, the one that said she knew exactly how much she’d worried us and didn’t regret a single second of it.I stared at the monitor. At the flat green line that stretched endlessly across the screen.My brain refused to process what my eyes were seeing. Because an hour ago she had been talking—her vo
The Billoniare's Fake Husband Time Finally Won
Quin's POVI sat beside Billie’s hospital bed through the long, suffocating night, listening to the mechanical rhythm of the heart monitor like it was a fragile lifeline I could will into permanence. The room was dim, illuminated only by the soft, eerie glow of machines—blue and green lines tracing the fragile proof that my sister was still here. Tyler had finally succumbed to exhaustion hours earlier, his head resting heavily against my shoulder, one hand loosely wrapped around my arm even in sleep. As if some part of him knew I was close to going off the edge.I envied him that brief escape. For a few hours, his mind could rest. While mine refused to.I could get the memory of Billie falling down the way she did.So I did the only thing I could. I opened the notes app on my phone and started a list. A desperate, foolish list of everything Billie still needed to experience before time ran out.Authentic Roman carbonara eaten at a tiny trattoria where the owner argued with customers.
The Billoniare's Fake Husband A promise against Time
Quin's POVThe ambulance ride was the longest journey of my life.I sat wedged beside the stretcher, gripping Billie’s hand so tightly my fingers had gone numb. Her skin felt cool, too fragile, like it might bruise under the pressure. She still hadn’t woken up. The paramedics moved with brisk efficiency around us, speaking rapid Italian into radios while attaching monitors to her chest. The moment they arrived I had told them about her condition. The machines beeped in a steady rhythm that should have been reassuring.Instead, every beep sounded like a countdown.My mother sat across from me, crying silently, tears tracking down her face without sound. My father looked devastated —shoulders hunched, jaw locked, eyes fixed on his daughter as if willing her to open hers. And me? To say I was terrified was an understatement of the year.Death no longer felt like some distant shadow on the horizon. It was here, in this swaying ambulance, in the oxygen mask covering my sister’s face, in th
The Billoniare's Fake Husband Not Enough Time
Tyler's POVA few days later we all boarded a flight to Italy.Italy looked exactly like the postcards. Only better—richer, more vivid and impossibly alive.The moment our car crested the final hill and the Amalfi Coast unfolded beneath us, Billie burst into tears.Not the devastating kind we’d grown terrifyingly used to over the past week. These were bright, overwhelming happy tears. The kind that comes when a long-held dream steps out of your imagination and becomes real enough to touch.“Oh my God,” she breathed, stepping out onto the overlook. The afternoon sun painted the sea in liquid gold. Colorful houses clung defiantly to the cliffs, tumbling down toward the water like jewels spilled from a giant’s hand. Boats drifted lazily below, their sails bright against the blue.“Billie?” her mother asked softly, hovering close. My mother-in-law had barely left her daughter’s side since they were informed of her condition, as if proximity alone could ward off the inevitable.Billie laug
The Billoniare's Fake Husband Before Tomorrow Runs Out
Quin's POVI watched my parents in silence after Billie told them.The words still hung in the air like smoke after an explosion—thick, acrid, impossible to breathe through. For a long moment, no one moved. The penthouse, usually a fortress of controlled elegance, felt like it had been hollowed out.My mother stared at Billie as if the English language had suddenly betrayed her. Her lips parted, but nothing came out. Denial flickered across her face, bright and fragile, before reality began to crush it.My father looked worse.Much worse.William McKenzie had built an empire on composure. He negotiated billion-dollar deals with the calm of a man ordering coffee. He stared down hostile boardrooms and market crashes without flinching. But right now, the indestructible William McKenzie was gone.He looked only at his daughter. His dying daughter."No," he said finally. The single word scraped out, raw and hoarse.Billie lowered her gaze to her lap, fingers twisting together."That's not
The Billoniare's Fake Husband The Beginning of goodbyes
Tyler's POVI didn't sleep.None of us did.After the call ended, it felt like the whole world was closing in on us. The air tasted metallic, like blood in the mouth after a punch you didn’t see coming.Billie had weeks to live and she was acting like it wasn't real most of the time. I couldn't bring myself to imagine how Quin felt.I had tried so hard not to tell Quin and he had heard it because of me. My heart ached for him.I kept replaying Billie’s face when the doctor had said how long she had left. We’d been in the living room, all three of us on speakerphone.I watched the color drain from Billie’s face like someone had pulled a plug. Her hand tightened around Quin’s until her knuckles bleached white. For one brief second she looked away from Quin, lips pressed thin, the expression of a woman who had known this was coming and had prayed the knowing would cushion the blow.It hadn’t.She truly was the strongest woman I've ever met.Quin had followed Billie to her room and I went
The Billoniare's Fake Husband Miss me Babe?
Tyler’s POVI should have just gone to Quin's room. At least I would be too busy to check my phone. But then I had to play hard to get and now I'm restless and can't sleep. Aiden is a terrible person, which was the main reason I cut him off. But what does he mean he's coming to take what's his...I
The Billoniare's Fake Husband He is Mine
Quin’s POVTyler didn’t push me away this time.That was the first thing I noticed. Not the tears or the way his shoulders shook before going still, and not even the way his hands had clenched weakly against my shirt before losing whatever strength they had left. It was the lack of resistance.He w
The Billoniare's Fake Husband Something is definitely Wrong with Me
Quin’s POVSomething must have gotten into me.I carried Tyler from the couch downstairs and took him to his room. I even stayed beside him throughout.That's not me. It couldn't be. I'm not a doctor so why would I care about him like that.I might need to call Billie later, she once studied to be
The Billoniare's Fake Husband One Hell of an Entertainment
Quin’s POVDinner with my parents was an absolute disaster. But I don't care because my father won't have a reason to not give me what belongs to me all in the name of marriage.I still don't know why he thinks marriage is that important. I'd rather get myself different playthings than to be tied t
