BILLIONAIRE'S PREGNANT MISTRESS Chapter Twenty
TobyThe engines of my Gulfstream G700 hummed steadily as the aircraft taxied toward the runway and I stood at the bottom of the staircase, one hand resting on the polished railing while my security team loaded the last of our luggage.Stavros approached quietly."The perimeter has been cleared sir, we are ready for take off""No suspicious activity?" I asked looking around, He shook his head. "Nothing sir."That should have reassured me but it didn't.Whoever had left that photograph on my doorstep hadn't made a single mistake. They were disciplined and patient. People like that didn't simply disappear."They are ready, sir."I looked toward the black SUV that had just pulled onto the tarmac, the rear door opened first and Maria climbed out before turning to help Naila.She accepted the offered hand carefully, one palm instinctively cradling her stomach as she stepped onto the pavement.The morning breeze lifted strands of her dark curls around her face and for a moment, she simply

NailaThe room became unnaturally quiet, I looked down at the sketchbook resting in my hands, then back up at Toby.His face had gone completely still, he didn't seem mad, he seemed calm, too calm given everything we had just found out. "What is it?" I asked again.My fingers instinctively tightened around the sketchbook."You know this drawing, don't you."He didn't answer immediately.Instead, he walked toward me and slowly sat beside me on the edge of the bed."May I see it?"His voice was calm, almost too calm and I handed him the sketchbook. He turned back to the page I had stopped on that was titled Project Iris.His thumb brushed over the handwritten title."You drew this," he said quietly "I remember seeing you work on it.""I don't remember." A wave of frustration washed over me "I don't remember drawing any of these."I looked at the pages in disbelief. "They are actually really good." A faint smile touched his lips."They are more than good. You were one of the most talen

TobyI stood in front of the floor to ceiling windows of my office long after everyone had gone to bed.The lights of Manhattan glittered below, but my attention remained fixed on the security monitor mounted on the wall.One screen showed the lobby, the second one showed the private elevator and the third showed the hallway outside Naila's bedroom.She was asleep or at least pretending to be sleeping, but I knew she wasn't. Every few minutes she shifted beneath the blankets, her restless movements a reminder that sleep offered her little peace, I could tell she was still being haunted by everything that had happened to her. A knock interrupted my thoughts."Come in."Stavros entered first, followed by the head of my security team in Greece, Nikos, who had joined the meeting via video call."Everything is ready on the island, sir," Nikos reported. "The main villa has been swept twice, all the staff have been vetted again, and we have restricted access to the harbor.""Good.""I have

Naila"No!"The scream tore from my throat before I even realized I was awake. I sat upright in bed, my chest heaving as panic clawed through me.For one terrifying second, I didn't know where I was, the room was unfamiliar, silk curtains, cream colored walls, the expensive furniture. Then the bedroom door flew open."Naila."Toby crossed the room in seconds, dropping to his knees beside the bed."My love."His hands hovered uncertainly over my shoulders."Can you hear me?"I couldn't answer, my entire body was shaking, there had been a little girl, i knew there had been, she had been crying.I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to hold onto the memory before it disappeared."Please" I whispered "Don't make me forget again."Toby's expression changed immediately."What did you remember Naila?""There was "I swallowed against the lump in my throat "A child."His brows drew together in confusions, "A child?"I nodded frantically "A little girl. She couldn't have been older than six. I think"

TobyThe apartment fell silent and no one moved or spoke for a few seconds. The words "We have found a witness" seemed to echo through every room.The detective standing in my foyer removed his cap before stepping inside."Mr. Anetakis." His gaze swept over everyone gathered in the living room before settling briefly on Naila."I'm Detective Marcus Hale."Naila offered him a hesitant smile."Have we met before?"Something flickered across his face."Only briefly, you were unconscious."She nodded, looking almost relieved that she hadn't forgotten another important person."I understand this isn't the best time," he continued, addressing me, "but this couldn't wait."I gestured toward my office."We will talk in private.""No." Naila's voice stopped both of us as she slowly rose from the sofa."I want to hear whatever he has to say.""Naila" I crossed the room instinctively "You have had enough excitement for one day.""I'm tired of everyone deciding what I can and cannot handle Toby.

NailaThe room began to spin, I did not hear him right. I looked from the younger man to Toby, searching desperately for someone to tell me I had misunderstood what he had just said but no one did. "What did you just say?"My voice sounded distant, almost as if someone else had spoken.The younger man Piers didn't look the least bit apologetic by what he had just said to me."I said that's enough." Toby's voice cracked through the room like a whip but Piers didn't even flinch."No." He folded his arms across his chest. "I'm done pretending this never happened and it needs to be addressed before it happens again. Naila deserves to know who everyone believes she is and we deserve to know what happened, who she was working for, for all we know she might still be working with them""I said stop it!" Toby's voice thundered through the room once more. I turned slowly toward Toby, "Is it true?" He didn't answer immediately but his silence was answer enough.My pulse began pounding inside my

TobyI leaned back in my chair, exhaling slowly as I stared at the list of missed calls on my desk from my brothers Theron and Piers.They had tried calling me multiple times.They wouldn’t let this go.A muscle ticked in my jaw as I picked up the phone, already knowing this conversation would be u

NailaTwo days later, I sat stiffly in the wheelchair, my fingers gripping the edge of the blanket draped over my lap.The hospital had become safe, more familiar and predictable. And now I was leaving it behind for a life I couldn’t remember.For a man I didn’t truly know or couldn't even remembe
BILLIONAIRE'S PREGNANT MISTRESS Chapter Four
NailaI drifted somewhere between sleep and waking up, trying to open my eyes, trapped beneath a heavy fog that refused to lift.A soft groan slipped from my lips as awareness began to return.I didn’t want it, sleep was easier and safer.In the darkness, there were no questions just emptiness.No
BILLIONAIRE'S PREGNANT MISTRESS Chapter Three
TobyThree months later.Silence filled the penthouse, the kind of silence that should have brought peace.Instead, it pressed in on me heavy, suffocating me.I stood by the floor to ceiling windows, a glass of untouched whiskey in my hand, my gaze fixed on the city below. Everything was exactly as
