Adrian’s phone rang.

Morrison.

He answered on speaker. Arabella moved closer to hear.

“We’ve located him,” Morrison said without preamble. “Café Tortoni in San Telmo. He’s working tonight. We have eyes on the location.”

“Can you extract him now?” Adrian asked.

“We’re trying to avoid a scene. Public café, lots of witnesses and international tourists. If we move in with force, it could spook him or create a situation.” Morrison’s voice was tense.

“But,

  • Accidentally Pregnant with the Billionaire’s Baby   Chapter 117: Revovery

    Lilian has changed noticeably. She wore a simple navy dress, looked very simple and humble. The socialite persona had vanished. But one could tell she had found peace. Lilian also noticed Arabella at the same moment. She couldn't hide that she was surprised, then she smiled genuinely at Arabella. "Arabella.""Lilian." For a moment neither woman knew what to say. Then Lilian gestured toward the man standing beside her."My husband, Thomas." A tall, friendly-looking man extended his hand. "It's nice to finally meet you." Arabella shook it politely. "You too.""Thomas is a school principal," Lilian explained."And she's the best drama teacher we've ever had," Thomas added proudly.Arabella turned back toward Lilian."Drama teacher?"Lilian laughed. "I know. Life is weird." There was no bitterness in her voice. Only amusement. They talked for a few minutes about work, children and other random things.Before they parted, Lilian hesitated and said. "I wanted to thank you."Arabella tilte

  • Accidentally Pregnant with the Billionaire’s Baby   Chapter 116: Letting go

    Three years earlier, Arabella would have slammed the door. Now, she simply looked up from her paperwork and smiled."You're late."Vanessa laughed as she stepped into the foundation office carrying two coffees. "I was trapped in a forty-minute conversation with a donor who wanted to explain cryptocurrency to me."Arabella accepted the cup gratefully. "My condolences."The Diana Ashford Foundation occupied an entire floor overlooking Manhattan now. The walls were covered with photographs of women who had rebuilt their lives through the foundation's programs. Some had started businesses, some had returned to school, while some had simply found peace. It was the achievement Arabella was proudest of. Vanessa settled into the chair across from her desk, and for several moments neither woman spoke. Arabella noticed immediately that something was wrong. Vanessa wasn't fidgeting, she wasn’t making jokes or talking. She wasn't her usual self. That alone was enough to raise alarm bells."What

  • Accidentally Pregnant with the Billionaire’s Baby   Chapter 115: Letter to the Future

    Everett was unrecognizable from the bloated, desperate addict who had threatened Arabella years ago. He had lost significant weight, he had grown lean and was dressed in a simple, unbranded navy coat. His posture was calm, his hands were buried deep in his pockets and he looked down while he waited."Absolutely not," Adrian said, with authority. He reached out to press the intercom to order the guards to remove him."Adrian, wait," Arabella said, her hand clamping over his wrist.Adrian looked at her, his jaw tight. "Bella, he has no rights to this family. He cannot suddenly show up at our gates because he had a sudden moment of clarity.""Look at him," Arabella whispered, her eyes fixed on the screen. "He’s not looking for a fight." She turned her head, looking Adrian dead in the eye. "Raina spent today asking if she was a mistake and if she was unwanted. Everett is a broken piece of her past, but if he’s here to apologize... maybe she needs to hear that the man who couldn't be her

    Adrian dropped fully to the floor, ignoring the sharp crack of his knees against the hardwood, and reached out. He didn't pull Raina into a forced embrace; instead, he gently took her small, cold hands into his massive palms, squeezing them softly."Look at me, Raina," Adrian commanded softly, his deep voice carrying a low, resonant gravity that instantly cut through her frantic sobbing.Raina sniffled, her tear-filled brown eyes lifting to meet his sharp gray gaze."You listen to me very carefully," Adrian said, each word deliberate, heavy with absolute certainty. "You were not a mistake. You were the most wanted child in this entire city. Before you were even born, your mommy and I fought every single day to make sure you would be ours. You weren't made in a laboratory because nobody wanted you. You were brought into this world because we wanted you—exactly you."Arabella leaned in, her voice thick with emotion as she stroked Raina’s dark curls. "Your classmate’s mother doesn't know

  • Accidentally Pregnant with the Billionaire’s Baby   Chapter 113: Wind from the Past

    The press had a new name for them: The Untouchables.For six years, Adrian and Arabella had successfully kept their private life completely private. The penthouse was filled with the chaotic, beautiful noise of a growing family. Alexander was a boisterous five-year-old, and little Diana, now two, was the newest darling of the household.But it was Raina, now six, who was the anchor of their world. She was brilliant, fiercely protective of her younger siblings, and entirely secure in her father’s absolute adoration.Until one morning, the wind from the past began to blow again.Adrian sat in his private study, the door locked, staring at a thick legal file Nathan had personally delivered an hour ago. His expression was that of content focus on the content of the envelope."How many?" Adrian asked quietly."Three so far," Nathan replied, leaning against the edge of the desk. "All teenagers. Between fourteen and sixteen."Adrian rubbed his temples, as he could feel a headache forming on

  • Accidentally Pregnant with the Billionaire’s Baby   Chapter 112: Dying end

    Adrian walked beside Arabella through the final security checkpoint, his presence was a strong shield for her. When they reached the heavy steel door of the intensive care cell, Adrian stopped, turning to Arabella. He pressed a firm, lingering kiss to her forehead. "I'm right here. Take as long as you need."Arabella took a deep breath, nodded, and stepped inside as the guard unlocked the door.The man lying in the narrow hospital bed looked nothing like the hefty, cruel patriarch who had haunted her childhood. Richard was completely withered, his skin was thin and sickly, his breathing was shallow and rattling as it was assisted by a rhythmic oxygen monitor. The heavy iron cuffs anchoring his frail ankle to the bed frame felt almost absurd given how weak he was.As the door closed, Richard’s sunken eyes fluttered open. He looked at Arabella, and for a second, a spark of his old, intelligent self flashed in his gaze before fading into exhaustion."You came," Richard croaked, his voice

    "What?" Arabella's voice was barely a whisper. "The DNA results confirm that Mr. Adrian Whitmore is a ninety-nine point nine percent biological match to Raina Quinn."The words hung in the air like a death sentence. Arabella's breath stopped. The room tilted. Her fingers gripped the armrest so tigh

    The silence fell in the waiting room again. All eyes glued on Arabella, who looked completely lost. "You WHORE!"Lilian's scream echoed down the hallway, her perfectly manicured nails pointing accusingly at Arabella. Her face twisted with rage.Arabella stumbled backwards, her legs were still weak

Her footsteps felt disconnected from her body, each one heavier than the last.Behind her, Adrian walked in silence.The sample collection room was small and clinical. A nurse swabbed the
