The Nanny And The Billionaire’s Heart
Arina Darius, a 20-year-old, takes a nanny job at the fancy Bruce Estate to handle her dad's debts and care for her sister.
She just wants a steady job.
But life there isn't what she expects.
The kid she watches, Kael Bruce, is super quiet—smart, but keeps to himself.
His dad, Damon, is a big-shot billionaire known for being cold.
Damon's flashy fiancée, Viva, is nice but kinda mean, making Arina feel out of place.
As Arina slowly gains Kael’s trust, she starts to see Damon's hidden issues—his pain, and loneliness.
He sees the warmth he’s been missing in her strength.
But Damon has a secret: Kael isn't really his kid. He's his late sister's son, and Damon promised to look after him.
Their bond causes trouble.
The fiancée gets jealous, old secrets pop up, and love becomes off-limits at Bruce Estate.
The Nanny and the Billionaire’s Heart is a story about quiet moments, longing, and standing up for yourself.
It shows how two people—and a quiet kid—find healing, family, and love in a place they never expected.

Chapter: CHAPTER FOURTEEN—FLICKERS OF SOMETHING. Arina’s POVThe evening breeze was cool, gently swaying the flowers in the garden of the Bruce mansion. Kael lay on the grass next to me, gazing up at the sky and imagining shapes in the clouds drifting overhead. “Look at that one!” he exclaimed, pointing. “It looks like a bunny!”I chuckled softly. “A bunny? It looks more like a sleeping cat to me.”He scrunched his face in protest. “You always change what I say.”“I’m just teasing,” I replied, playfully ruffling his hair. “Okay, it’s a bunny.”Moments like these felt serene—almost too serene. They made me forget the worries that usually weighed on me: my father’s tired hands, the lingering debt, and the quiet sorrow of home. Here, surrounded by the fragrance of freshly trimmed roses and Kael’s laughter, the world seemed kinder.I didn’t notice Damon standing on the balcony until Kael waved excitedly. “Daddy! Come down!”My heart skipped a beat as Damon descended the stone steps with his usual grace, his dark shirt sleeves rolled

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTEEN—SOFT SPACES.CHAPTER FOURTEEN, Soft SpacesArina’s POVThe morning light streamed through the tall windows of the Bruce mansion, creating golden patches on the marble floor. I moved quietly around the living room. My hair was tied in a loose bun, and my gown showed some creases from the morning rush. I had already made Kael’s breakfast, double-checked his school bag, and placed his shoes neatly by the door.The house felt calm, unusually calm, except for the faint sounds of the staff working in various rooms. Damon hadn’t come down yet, and I found myself glancing at the staircase now and then. Not that I was waiting, I assured myself, but Kael’s questions about his father had been coming more often.“Is Daddy coming down for breakfast?” Kael asked, nibbling on his toast.I smiled faintly as I set a cup of milk in front of him. “He might, champ. He’s probably just busy.”Kael sighed and swung his legs under the chair. “He’s always busy. But he talked more yesterday. Maybe he’ll come today too

Chapter: CHAPTER TWELVE—THE QUIET BLOOM. Damon’s POVThe morning sunlight spread lazily across the polished floor of Bruce Mansion, cutting golden lines through the silence. It was too early for laughter. Or so I thought until I heard it.Soft, clear, and faintly musical.It was Arina.Her laugh drifted from the living room, light as the morning breeze. I paused on the staircase, my hand resting on the railing, letting the sound wash over me. There was something about it—unforced, gentle—that softened the air around her.When I finally went down, I found her kneeling next to Kael on the rug. A coloring book lay open between them, and crayons were scattered like candy. Kael furrowed his brow in concentration as he carefully shaded a tiny sun in the corner of the page.“You missed a bit,” she teased, tapping the edge of the paper.Kael gave a little grin, small but real. “You missed one too.”The smile that lit her face spoke volumes.For a moment, I stood there—not the CEO nor the father guarding his heart behind cold wa

Chapter: CHAPTER ELEVEN—THE SUBTLE SHIFT. Arina’s POVThe morning sunlight poured through the tall glass windows of the Bruce mansion, filling the dining area with a warm glow. I had gotten up early to help Maria set the table. Kael insisted on helping too, carrying napkins and placing them—crookedly but with pride—next to the plates.When Damon Bruce walked into the room, his presence made everything else seem less important. He wore a charcoal shirt, with his sleeves rolled up to his forearms and his tie hanging loosely, as if he’d already been working. His eyes found Kael immediately, and something unreadable crossed his face.“Good morning, Dad!” Kael said cheerfully.For a moment, Damon just stared, as if the word caught him off guard. Then, slowly, a faint smile appeared. “Good morning, Kael.”It was brief but genuine.Kael grinned and pulled out a chair for him. “I helped set the table.”Damon’s eyebrows raised slightly. “You did?”I cleared my throat softly. “He insisted. He said it was ‘for practice.’”Kael nodd

Chapter: CHAPTER TEN—THE PARK AND THE QUIET BETWEEN THEM. Arina’s POVThe next morning was bright, with soft sunshine that slipped through the windows like liquid gold. I had just finished brushing Kael’s hair when he tugged lightly at my sleeve.“Arina, can we go out today?” His voice was quiet and hesitant, as if he wasn’t sure he could ask.I blinked and turned toward him. “You mean outside the garden?”He nodded, his brown eyes—those calm, guarded eyes—looking up at me. “To the park. The one with swings.”It was a small request, but my heart fluttered. The boy who barely spoke to anyone wanted to go out with me. “Of course,” I said, smiling. “Let me ask your dad first, okay?”Kael’s lips curved into the smallest smile I had ever seen from him. “Okay.”I found Damon Bruce in his office, sitting behind his desk as always, typing away. His sleeves were rolled up, showing his wristwatch and a small scar near his hand.He didn’t look up right away.“Good morning, Mr. Bruce,” I greeted softly.He hummed, his tone low. “Morning, Miss Dar

Chapter: CHAPTER NINE—SOFT ECHOES.Arina’s POV I woke up before dawn, the soft chirping of birds, the only sound breaking the stillness of the mansion. The early morning light barely touched the edges of my small guest room as I stood by the mirror, brushing my hair into a tidy bun. The air felt cold against my skin. For a moment, I missed the warmth of my tiny home, my father’s silent hum, and her sister’s laughter echoing down the hall. But this was her new life now.Every day, I reminded myself why I was here. I needed to pay my father’s debt. I wanted to ensure he no longer worked himself to exhaustion. I hoped to give my sister a better future.My heart steeled with that resolve as I stepped into the corridor.Downstairs, the mansion was waking up. Maria and the maids moved quietly, and the faint aroma of freshly brewed coffee drifted through the dining area. I found Kael sitting at the long dining table, his legs swinging beneath the chair. His small face still looked sleepy, and his hair was a soft me
