Lily’s POV

Airplanes and I have never been friends.

The way the engines roar, the metal tube shakes, and the whole thing depends on invisible air currents? Yeah, no thank you.

But here I was—thirty thousand feet above ground—gripping the armrest of a private jet like it was a lifeline.

“Relax, Miss Hart,” came Andrew’s calm voice beside me. “We’re perfectly safe.”

“Easy for you to say,” I muttered, my eyes glued to the tiny oval window. “You’re used to all this luxury.”

He smirked faintly, flipping open a hardcover book. “Luxury doesn’t defy gravity, Lily.”

Oh we're on first name basis now.

The jet was silent except for the low hum of the engines. Across from us sat two other shareholders, speaking quietly, and one of Andrew’s board aides typing on a laptop.

Meanwhile, I was silently making peace with God.

Andrew noticed. “You’re terrified.”

I shot him a glare. “Brilliant observation, Mr. Sterling.”

He chuckled softly, unbothered. Then, after a pause, he said, “When I was younger, I h

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 102: Bring men to their knees

    Adrian’s POV…….The house felt different when I was alone in it.Too quiet.Too still.I adjusted the cuff of my suit for the third time and glanced at my reflection in the glass wall by the bar. Black suit. Clean lines. Tailored perfectly. The kind of armor I wore when I needed to be in control.Tonight, I wasn’t sure I had it.I poured myself a glass of wine, the deep red liquid catching the light as it filled the crystal. My hand was steady, but my thoughts weren’t. They kept drifting upstairs—to the guest room that wasn’t really a guest room anymore.To Sophia.To the woman who looked at me like I was both familiar and foreign.I took a slow sip, letting the wine burn slightly as it went down, grounding me. I told myself this was fine. This was normal. The Obsidian Club had always been a place of masks, boundaries, rules. It was controlled chaos.But Sophia wasn’t controlled.She was fragile in ways she didn’t even realize yet.The sound of heels clicking against marble reached my

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 101: Lace and muscle memory

    Sophia’s POV…..Coming home felt different tonight.Not because the house had changed—Adrian’s place was still vast, quiet, intimidating in its perfection—but because I had. Or maybe because something inside me was stirring, stretching, remembering how to exist in spaces like this.The door closed softly behind me, the sound echoing faintly through the marble hallway.“Adrian?” I called.“I’m here,” his voice came from the living room.I followed it, my steps cautious, my nerves humming under my skin. He was standing near the window, sleeves rolled up, phone in one hand, a glass of wine in the other. He looked… composed. Controlled. Like a man who always knew what came next.And for some reason, that unsettled me.“You’re back later than I expected,” he said, turning.“Ice cream turned into talking,” I replied.A ghost of a smile crossed his lips. “That sounds like Lily.”“It does,” I said softly, surprised that I could say it with certainty.He studied my face for a moment, as if we

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 100: Shopping for baby clothes

    Sophia’s POV…….Shopping malls have a sound and beautiful decorations.I realized that the moment Lily and I stepped through the glass doors—layers of voices overlapping, laughter, music humming faintly from unseen speakers, heels clicking against polished floors. It was overwhelming and comforting at the same time, like stepping into a memory I couldn’t reach but somehow recognized.“This way,” Lily said gently, looping her arm through mine as if she’d always done it.Maybe she had.I let her lead me, my eyes darting everywhere. Bright storefronts. Mirrors. Mannequins frozen in confident poses. Everything felt familiar in the vaguest way, like déjà vu stretched thin.“You okay?” Lily asked, glancing at me.I nodded. “Yeah. Just… taking it all in.”She smiled. “You always loved people-watching.”“I did?” I asked softly.She stopped walking.Not abruptly—but enough that I noticed. She turned fully to face me, her expression careful, warm, but layered with something deeper. Sadness, may

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter Ninety nine: Ogling Adrian

    Sophia’s POV…..I woke up to silence.Not the sterile, humming silence of hospital machines or the constant footsteps of nurses passing my door—but a different kind. The kind that felt wide. Open. Almost too big for me to hold.For a moment, I didn’t move. I lay there staring at the ceiling, my body heavy, my head throbbing faintly like it did in the hospital when I first opened my eyes. Morning light slipped through the curtains, pale and soft, touching the edges of the room like it didn’t want to startle me.This is real, I told myself.I was not dreaming. I was not floating between memories I didn’t have. I was awake, in a house that wasn’t mine but somehow was, surrounded by a life I was expected to step back into without instructions.Slowly, I pushed myself upright.I swung my legs over the bed and stood, the cool floor grounding me. I wore the sweater Lily had given me, sleeves too long, soft against my skin. It smelled faintly like lavender and something warmer—home, maybe. O

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter Ninety eight: Eat healthy

    Lily’s POV…….The house was quiet in that soft, late-night way that felt serene and peaceful.Not the tense silence that followed danger—but the gentle kind that wrapped around you like a blanket after a long day. The twins were asleep, they were heading to college soon and would be leaving to The UK to study. The lights dimmed low, and the rain outside tapped lightly against the windows like it was trying not to disturb us.Andrew and I lay curled together on the couch, my feet tucked beneath his thigh, his arm draped lazily around my shoulders. The TV was on, but neither of us was really watching. My attention was on the steady rise and fall of his chest beneath my cheek, the calm rhythm of his breathing grounding me in a way nothing else ever could.“You okay?” Andrew murmured, pressing a kiss to my hair.I nodded. “Yeah. Just… tired.”He hummed softly. “You’ve been through hell.”“So have you.”His arm tightened slightly around me. “Not like you.”I tilted my head to look at him.

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter ninety seven: New beginnings

    Sophia’s Pov…The drive was quiet.Not uncomfortable—just… heavy. Like the air itself was still figuring out where it belonged.I watched the city blur past the window, streetlights streaking gold against the dark, my reflection faintly visible in the glass. Every few seconds, my eyes flicked back to Adrian’s hands on the steering wheel. Long fingers. Steady grip. No hesitation.He drove like someone who always knew where he was going.I didn’t.When the car slowed and turned into a private road lined with tall hedges and soft lights, I sat up a little straighter.“Where are we?” I asked.Adrian glanced at me briefly. “Home.”The gates opened smoothly, silently, and the car rolled forward.Then I saw it.My breath caught.The house rose before us—modern and imposing, all glass and stone and clean lines. Warm light spilled from tall windows, illuminating a sweeping driveway and manicured greenery that looked almost unreal after months of hospital white.“Wow,” I breathed before I could
