I could barely move properly while trying to entertain the kids. They kept tugging at my mask and sunglasses, curious. Add to that Sebastian’s sharp glares, and it was impossible to relax.

I didn’t understand why he seemed so mad at me.

“Mrs. Whitmore, can you read this to me?” asked one of the kids. It was Jasmine. I knew her well—I was the one who found her when she was left at the orphanage’s doorstep as a three-month-old baby. Now she was five.

She was so young when the first orphanage burned down.

I looked at the storybook she was holding. It was about a princess kidnapped by a witch on her first birthday.

I hesitated to take it. I’d been trying not to speak too much—if they heard my voice, they might recognize me.

“Please, Mrs. Whitmore!” added Bea, who was eight.

I exhaled deeply. When it came to them, I just couldn’t say no.

I smiled, even though they couldn’t see it. I was about to take the storybook when someone else reached for it first.

“Let me do it for you, kids!”

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 42: Ghosted

    I didn’t hear from him for days.Not a single call. Not even a text.And Brix? He had no idea where his boss was or what he was doing.The silence became its own kind of torment.It hurt more than I expected—that after everything, it was like he’d completely forgotten me.I was left in the dark, confused and second-guessing everything.I tried my best to keep myself busy just so I wouldn’t think about him.I threw myself into work. Stayed longer at the studio.I pretended like everything was fine.But it wasn’t.

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 41: So what am I?

    Everything happened so fast.He was so sweet. I truly thought we were finally being real with each other.But the next thing I knew, it all went back to how it had always been.That very same day, we flew back to the city.No words.No explanations.I waited for him to say something. I even tried to ask him what was going on, why he seemed so tense and in such a hurry.But nothing.He didn’t bother telling me anything and was glued to his phone the entire time.He kept talking nonstop with his secretary. About someone. About a woman.

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 40: A Moment of truth

    We spent most of our time on the yacht. We even tried out some of the activities they offered on the island. I was so happy—I didn’t want it to end.But a part of me was scared.Scared that once we returned to the city, the Sebastian I’d come to know here would disappear again.“Here,” he said.I turned to him and saw the wine glass he was handing me.“I… I don’t drink.”Sebastian sat down beside me. “It’s just red wine. Don’t worry.”I sighed and took the glass from him.“Fine. But make sure I don’t

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 39: A Sea of Feelings

    The entire time I was with Sebastian, I couldn’t stay still. I felt so awkward, especially whenever I was fixing my things inside the room while he was also there.And of course—it didn’t help that he kept saying the most unexpected things.I tried my best to ignore him and just finish unpacking.When I was done, Sebastian asked me to get ready. He said we were going somewhere.I wore a simple one-piece swimsuit and threw on a pair of short denim shorts over it. Then I grabbed a light cover-up and tied my hair in a loose bun. I didn’t bother with too much makeup—just sunscreen and a bit of tinted lip balm. The sun was too strong for anything else.When I stepped out of the room, Sebastian was already waiting for me by the patio doors. The moment he saw me, he froze.“What?” I asked, suddenly self-conscious.He blinked once, then twice. “Nothing. You just… you look nice.”My cheeks burned instantly, and I had to look away. “Thanks,” I mumbled, clutching the towel in my hands a little

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 38: Bed to fall

    One bed? Seriously?I rushed out of the bedroom, practically stomping through the hallway in disbelief. One bed? Seriously?I found Sebastian in the kitchen, poking around the fridge like he was looking for something to snack on. The moment he saw me, he straightened up and smiled like everything was perfectly normal.“So?” he said casually.I took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.“I… I saw it. But why do we only have one bed?”Sebastian paused what he was doing and turned to fully face me. His brows furrowed, like he was still processing my question.“Oh, that? Well, I just told them to book the most expensive villa for a couple. Is that a problem?”My mouth fell slightly open at his answer.And at the same time—I swear—I could feel my ears heating up.A couple.He said it so easily. Like it wasn’t a big deal. Like it didn’t send my heart tripping over itself.“Uh… n-no. But—aren’t you forgetting something?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady. “Our situation? You do remember
