The morning sunrise rays splashed on the soft fabric of the hospital windows, and the gray sky outside made the room feel like a ship in a thunderstorm. But no storm could compare to the one swirling in my chest.

I sat on the edge of the chair, staring down at my hand.

The ring.

It glittered gently in the dim light, hugging my finger like it belonged there.

But it didn’t.

It wasn’t his.

There was no engraving. No promise. No “To My Peace – D.” Just a flawless replica—an obsession disguised as love. And somehow… I couldn’t take it off.

I’d tried. Twice. Last night. My fingers refused to part with it, like it had latched onto my guilt and wouldn’t let go. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Darlington’s face—how he’d looked when he gave it back to me, his voice apologizing for doubting me. And I couldn’t bear the thought of hurting him again.

Even if the ring wasn’t real… the hope in his eyes was.

I drew a deep breath and stood. Enough of this overthinking. Today wasn’t

  • Becoming Mom To The Billionaire Daughter.   Chapter 62: Pillow Fight

    The first three days felt like a never-ending game of cards.Not poker. Not blackjack.Something crueler.A game with no dealer. No rules. And I was always one card short.There were twists.Like the night Diane almost called me “Mom.”“Mom—”She’d whispered it as she reached out toward her night lantern. Just one syllable. One fragile breath.Then she stopped herself.Paused mid-reach like her throat had caught fire.And walked barefoot across the room to switch it on herself.She didn’t say another word.Didn’t even glance my way.That half-spoken word? It was the closest I had come to winning.But the game wasn’t over.There was suspense.The kind that crept in on quiet mornings when I’d put on her favorite cartoon—Planet of Princess.The intro alone used to make her dance like her bones were made of gum.I remember her yelling from the top of the stairs:“Renzy! Renzy! It’s starting! Don’t stay late or you’ll miss her magic twirl!”And now?Now she barely blinked. Just glanced at

  • Becoming Mom To The Billionaire Daughter.   Chapter 61:All By Herself

    "What happened, Renzy? Why aren't you talking? Is it about Elly? Trust me… she's nice. Just like you.""Diane, no!!! She isn't nice! And what happened to what I told you a million times? Don't ever follow strangers! It’s all because of you we had to go through so much stress! Now Elly is your new mom? She's not just your 'new mom'—she’s a villain. A terrible villain, I say!"After roaring this, I couldn't even feel my heart.I only felt like a new person—Not the one who wouldn’t even scold Diane,Even if she came out last in class."I'mmmm sorry for not listening to you. I'm realllly sorry, Mam. It won't repeat itself…" Diane whimpered, her voice broken."No, baby. I'm sorry. I just let go of my cool. You know I would never ever shout at you.""It's me who should be sorry, Miss Rennie. I promise I will never disturb you again."From the way Diane began to whimper so silently…All those apologies didn’t mean remorse.They meant regret.Regret for ever trusting me the first day I walk

  • Becoming Mom To The Billionaire Daughter.   Chapter 60: Manipulative Relative

    Just as Eloise took off her coat, what we saw made our blood freeze and clot.It wasn’t just a coat.Beneath it, she wore a full Nigel-grade bulletproof vest, black as night—custom-fit, casual, but terrifying. Tucked into the vest were two compact guns, locked and ready. She looked more like a trained assassin than someone doing petty crime through kidnapping.Then—she shifted Diane behind her.We couldn’t see her anymore.Only Darlington, Shawn, and I had a full view. She was shielding Diane, like she knew Diane always got terrified at the sight of guns.Even with all the fury rushing through our blood, none of us dared to fire. Not if there was even a 1% chance it could hit Diane.Before we could blink—A black sedan pulled up to the edge of the alley, headlights off, engine purring like a villain’s entrance cue.Eloise didn’t hesitate. She grabbed Diane’s wrist, whispering something in her ear.Then she said it aloud—loud enough for us to hear:“Get in, baby. Just like we practiced

    "You heard the info, so I believe we know what to do, boys. Officer Ren, lead the mission."The Commissioner roared. "Yes, Sir!!! Operation Rescue From Family Drama is—" "Pick another rescue name," The Commissioner cut in, glaring at the half-smirking officer. "All you officers and agents of gossip." A few snickers and giggles echoed through the ops room. Commissioner Ren straightened, trying to hide his own smirk. “Operation Rescue Wolfe is going to be live by 1:30 AM,We'll move at exactly 2:00 AM. That gives us three hours to lock down all exits, prep the vehicles, and get the gadget rigs secured.” “Goggles, drones, comms, backup units—everything synced and encrypted,” Darlington added, already tapping through a digital checklist. “Nobody breathes until we say so.” The team nodded and scattered into controlled chaos—boots pounding, vests strapped, weapons checked. But I couldn’t sleep. Not even for a minute. Everyone else were in their room resting, sleeping and w

    “Uhmm… who’s Mr. Elias?” Darlington asked, his brows furrowed, eyes scanning my face for something—anything—that made sense.“He’s…” I swallowed hard, still processing it myself. “He’s Paige’s father.”Darlington’s head tilted slightly. “Paige? Diane's fake mom? Shawn’s ex-wife?”I nodded, my body still numb. “Yes. But... the detective told me Mr Elias had disowned her. Said he cut all ties after what happened with her going back to Shawn.He told us he was in England.”Darlington’s gaze drifted back to the live surveillance feed, his voice quiet but sharp. “So if he’s helping Eloise… then Paige wasn’t innocent.”The realization cracked something in my chest.“That lying bitch,” I muttered, more to myself than him. “She played the victim. I thought she would be harmless in rehab.. I believed every word.”Darlington turned to me. “You believed her because she gave us a lead, remember Rennie, she said it wasn't a Wolfe.”I shook my head, bitterness coating my throat. “I believed her beca

    The SUV went silent. The decor was nothing less than a hundred, judging by the sleek leather and glowing blue lights. Shawn held me so tight I wasn’t able to move, not breathe. Oh, who was I kidding? The relationship I shared with Shawn was one some would call voodoo. Despite hurting me and abandoning me, I still loved his touch. I still trembled to his wet kisses. Before I could react—knowing I was married—the seats had already begun to recline, shifting with a smooth mechanical hum. The divider between us and the driver slid up with a soft buzz, sealing us into a private section. Then he turned to me, slowly, like the scene had been planned in his head a dozen times. He tugged off his black shirt, muscles stretching and flexing with the motion. His eyes never left mine. The SUV now looked less like transport… and more like temptation. I sat frozen—not because I was afraid, but because something in me didn’t want to move. He leaned over me, his hand brushing my knee. Then— R
