Madison

I stood there, watching until the sleek black car disappeared around a corner. Only then did I release the breath I hadn't realized I was holding.

The evening air had a crisp bite to it, and I wrapped my coat tighter around myself as I flagged down a taxi. Twenty minutes later, I was walking through the sliding glass doors of Hallmark Hospital, the antiseptic smell hitting me immediately.

The receptionist greeted me with a smile. "Good evening, Ms. Harper. Are you here to see your mother?"

"Yes, thank you." I signed the visitor log, appreciating the now-familiar routine.

As I headed toward the elevator, I spotted Anthony coming out of a patient's room, his white coat pristine despite the late hour.

"Ms. Harper," he called, changing direction to intercept me. "Perfect timing. I was just about to call you."

My heart skipped. "Is everything okay with my mother?"

"Everything's excellent, actually." His smile was reassuring. "We're planning to discharge her in a few days."

  • A Secretive Deal with My Billionaire Boss   Chapter 226

    MadisonI quickly rebuttoned it, feeling the heat rise to my cheeks. "Why is Scarlett coming here anyway?" "I have no idea." Alexander settled behind his desk, straightening papers that had been disturbed during our activities. "But I intend to make it quick." I nodded, moving to the chair across from his desk just as a knock sounded at the door. Five minutes had passed faster than I'd expected. "Come in," Alexander called, his voice cool and controlled. The door swung open, and Scarlett Reynolds glided in like she owned the place. She was stunning in a form-fitting red dress that hugged every perfect curve of her body, her blonde hair cascading in flawless waves down her back. The diamond earrings caught the light as she moved, and her makeup looked professionally applied. Next to her, I felt like a schoolgirl who'd been caught making out behind the bleachers. "Alexander, darling," she purred, not even glancing in my direction as she approached his desk. "Thank you for seeing me

    MadisonHe unbuckled his belt slowly, deliberately, the sound of metal clinking making my pulse quicken. Then he unzipped his pants, pushing them down along with his boxers. His cock sprang free, thick and hard. I licked my lips involuntarily, and Alexander's grip tightened in my hair. "Open your mouth." I parted my lips, and he guided his cock between them, pushing in slowly at first, then faster. I relaxed my jaw, taking him deeper, my tongue swirling around the head. "Fuck," he groaned, his hips thrusting forward. "That's it. Take all of it." I hollowed my cheeks, sucking harder, loving the way his breathing became ragged. His hand guided my movements, setting a rhythm that had him hitting the back of my throat with each thrust. "Look at me," he commanded. I raised my eyes to meet his, and the raw desire I saw there made me moan around his cock. "Such a good girl," he praised, his thumb wiping a tear from the corner of my eye. "Taking my cock so well." He pulled out sudden

    Madison"Is that so hard to believe?" He pushed my blouse open, his palm warm against my stomach. I caught his wrist, halting his movement. "If you were thinking about me so much, why didn't you call? Am I supposed to be the only one making an effort here?" Alexander's expression shifted, something vulnerable flickering across his face before disappearing behind his usual confident mask. "I was waiting for you to call me." "You were waiting?" I raised an eyebrow. "You know phones work both ways, right? You can call me too." His lips quirked up at one corner. "I didn't want to seem... eager." I couldn't help but laugh. "Alexander Knight, afraid of seeming eager? That's a first." "Not afraid," he corrected, leaning closer until his breath tickled my ear. "Strategic." "Well, your strategy sucks." I ran my hands up his chest, feeling his heart beating strongly beneath my palm. "You can call me anytime." "I will," he promised, his fingers tracing patterns on my skin. "Next time, I

    MadisonAlexander leaned forward, resting his elbows on his desk. "Give her a call now. I want this started immediately." "I can call her later when I'm back at my desk," I replied, shifting in my chair. "Why aren't you asking your own team to handle this? Why Hazel specifically?" His lips quirked into a half-smile. "I've already given the task to my team. Hazel would be additional support. Sometimes, outside perspectives catch things professionals miss. Your friend found those articles before my entire PR department did." "Okay, fair point." I paused, curiosity getting the better of me. "So, who's the person behind these articles? You mentioned you identified them." Alexander's eyes gleamed with something that looked suspiciously like amusement. "I'll keep that information to myself for now. After we get Hazel's collection and confirm my suspicions, I'll reveal all." He leaned back in his chair. "In the meantime, you can keep thinking about who it might be." "So you want to tort

    MadisonMonday mornings always felt like the calm before the storm. I arrived early, settled at my desk, and dove into work before the usual office chaos began. The Manhattan Project was picking up speed, and my to-do list had grown exponentially over the weekend. I reviewed the latest architectural renderings, taking notes on potential issues. My mind kept drifting to Katherine Sinclair. After discovering who she was, I'd spent the entire weekend debating whether to ask Alexander about her directly. "Just focus on work," I muttered to myself, tapping my pen against the desk. Would bringing up Katherine make things awkward between us? Or worse, would it reveal feelings I wasn't ready to confront? Our arrangement was complicated enough without adding emotional baggage. A knock at my door interrupted my thoughts. "Good morning, Miss Harper." Herbert Hayes stood in the doorway, briefcase in hand, looking every bit the seasoned professional in his navy suit. "Mr. Hayes, welcome." I

    MadisonHer fingers flew across the keyboard as she navigated through several comments."Oh, this is juicy," she said, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "According to this post from two months ago, Katherine is dating a CEO in London. And not just casually, like, seriously dating.""How reliable is that information?" I tried to keep my voice neutral despite the strange relief washing over me."Pretty solid. Several people confirmed it in the comments." Hazel scrolled down further. "Only a couple saying it's fake news. Oh, and get this—she's not just some trophy girlfriend. She runs her own fashion retail empire and some luxury business ventures. Started from scratch.""Impressive," I murmured, trying to picture the woman from the photo as a business mogul rather than just Alexander's ex."If this gossip is true," Hazel said, closing her laptop with finality, "then Katherine won't be coming back into Alexander's life anytime soon. You can relax.""I wasn't worried," I lie
