— Lily’s POV

The week had stretched like a bad dream.

Andrew was gone.

The office felt emptier than ever — quieter, colder, like even the walls missed his footsteps. For someone who claimed to hate chaos, he’d somehow managed to fill every corner of my day with it. Without him, time moved slower… and heavier.

Ryan's constant prescence in the office did more harm than good, Andrew said he'll be back soon, this is like a week already.

By Wednesday, my headaches had returned.

So had my father.

He’d shown up at my door uninvited, slouched against the frame, the familiar stench of cheap alcohol hanging around him like a curse.

“Open up, Lily. Don’t act like you don’t hear me,” he slurred.

I froze for a second before unlocking the door. The look in his eyes told me this wasn’t a reunion — it was a transaction.

“Dad,” I whispered, stepping aside.

He didn’t wait for permission. He pushed past me, taking in the living room with the same disdain he always carried.

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    chapter forty nine: The truth

    Lily’s POV Andrew didn’t speak for a long time.I looked at our entwined hands.He stood in front of his mother’s grave the way a boy stands before a locked door—wanting to go in, terrified of what waits behind it. The breeze tugged at his hair, his suit, but he didn’t move. I waited, silently, not breathing, not wanting to break whatever was unraveling inside him.Then finally—“I should’ve protected her.”His voice cracked.Not the polished, controlled, ruthless tone I was used to.No.His voice broke.I stepped closer, but not too close. I didn’t want to scare him back into silence.He swallowed, staring at the marble. “My father… he destroyed her. Piece by piece. Day by day. He turned our house into a battlefield and her into a casualty.”His hands curled into fists at his sides.“I was twelve when I realized the bruises weren’t accidents. He used to push her, corner her, belittle her. And she’d smile at me afterward and say, ‘I’m clumsy, sweetheart.’”I felt my throat tighten.H

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    chapter forty eight: I deserve the truth

    Lily’s POV...I woke up still tasting him on my tongue.No—God, no. Not him.Not Andrew Sterling.Not the Silver Mask.Not the man who had carried me over his shoulder like some barbarian and called it “saving me.”But still… my mood was lighter than it should’ve been.Lighter than the three weeks of hell should’ve allowed.I put on my outfit, tied my hair up, put on lip balm, and actually—ridiculously—smiled at myself in the elevator mirror.Work.Normalcy.Air.That was all I needed.When I walked into the office, Jenna lifted her eyebrows. “Why are you smiling like a girl who got kissed in a dark hallway?”“I’m not smiling,” I lied, keeping my voice steady and my cheeks cool. “I’m just… better.”She gave me a side-eye that could slice through my hair , I chuckled at the thought.I walked to my desk, settled my bag, and powered my computer, ready to pretend life wasn’t a storm of masked billionaires, toxic exes, and deep-voiced men who ruined my mental balance.It lasted exactly twe

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    chapter forty seven: Almost sex

    Lily's pov…..“Go home Lily” Andrew says Instead of leaving, I pull to him and kiss him lightly on the mouth.He pulls me roughly through the door and pushes me up against the hard wall, closing the door behind us with his foot. The room’s almost completely dark, lit only by soft moonlight that spills in through a smallwindow high on the wall. The pounding of the dance music penetrates the door easily, but I hardly hear it. Every one of my senses zeroes in on Andrew.He stands close, his large bulk looming over me, tall and powerful.Taking my wrists, he pulls my hands up over my head, easily pining both to the wall with his left hand. I suppose I could struggle, but I only watch, letting him position me. I want what he wants.“Jesus, you look so fucking hot like this lily”l His confident smirk is barely visible in the darkness, but it melts me inside. Heruns his other hand along the line of my jaw, angling my face up towardshis. “Keep your ass touching the wall.”I press b

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter forty six: Control

    Andrew’s POV ……The bass throbbed through my ribs the moment I stepped inside Obsidian. The neon lights flickered beneath the haze, bodies swaying in shadows, secrets moving between beats. Adrian was already waiting at our usual private booth, swirling a glass of something dark.I needed the noise.I needed the chaos.I needed something that wasn’t the suffocating silence inside my head.He raised an eyebrow as I slid into the booth. “You look like hell.”“Canada,” I muttered, leaning back, undoing the top button of my shirt. The leather couch felt cold against my spine. “And days without sleep.”He nodded, lips tightening. “You got what you needed?”“More than I expected.”Less than I wanted.Everything I didn’t know how to handle.Adrian watched me for a moment, and he didn’t push. He never pushed. That was the problem. Tonight, I needed a distraction before my brain ate itself alive.“So,” he said finally, “are you going to tell me what’s actually bothering you, or do I need to dra

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    chapter forty five: The truth

    Andrew’s POV …The wheels of the plane hit the tarmac with a violent bounce, jerking me forward in my seat. I exhaled slowly, knuckles cracking as I flexed them. Eight hours awake, a corporate war brewing, Lily’s silence slicing at me, and now… this.Canada.Cold air slapped my face the moment I stepped out of the airport. A harsh, biting chill that cut cleaner than anything I’d felt in days—and it still felt gentler than her ignoring me. I shoved that thought down and focused on the one thing that mattered right now. Lucas.Adrian had given me an address scribbled on a folded sheet of paper. A small town outside Vancouver—quiet, remote, tucked into the side of a lake. The kind of place you go when you need to hide… or when the world has taken everything from you.The taxi ride took an hour. Snow powdered the ground. Pines stretched endlessly to either side of the narrow road. And with every curve the driver took, the pit in my stomach tightened.I didn’t know what I was expecting.A
