Becoming Mom To The Billionaire Daughter. Chapter 58: One Wore A Crown The Other Wore A Mask
“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

MORNING – THEIR ROOM The first thing I felt wasn’t the sunlight—it was Darlington’s warmth, skin to skin, which made the morning special. His arm was wrapped around my waist, fingers resting lightly over my belly like he was still protecting something despite in his sleep. His breath moved steadily against my neck, the tangled mess of sheets around our legs. For a second, I let it be just us. No missions. No danger. No Diane kidnapping. Just… peace. But reality has a nasty habit of reminding you where you are. I shifted slightly, trying to get out of bed, when I heard, “Mmm… don’t,” he groaned, voice rough from sleep. “Don’t go yet.” “I have to shower,” I whispered, brushing my lips over his forearm. “Remember we leave in thirty minutes.” He cracked one eye open, the lazy smirk already playing on his lips. “You know what could help me get ready?” I raised a brow. “What?” “You.” “I help you dress all the time.” He chuckled, slow and dark. “No, Rennie. I mean, come show

“We need to do something… we… need to find my baby.” My voice broke at every word. I could barely breathe, the fear gripping my throat like it was trying to choke me. “You're right,” Shawn said, pacing across the room like a storm was brewing in his chest. “But who the hell is she? And what does she want with me… with my daughter?” The air was thick with tension when Darlington suddenly shouted from behind his laptop. “Found her!” We both turned around. Darlington’s voice sliced through the silence. “Ugh, I don’t get it—is she a damn ghost? But I finally cracked it.” “What do you mean ‘ghost’?” Shawn asked, brows furrowed. Darlington’s eyes were wide with disbelief—and adrenaline. “All her records? Locked. Her IDs? Either expired or never existed. No digital trace. No employment history after 2017. She erased herself from the system.” Chills spread across my arms like frostbite. “But thanks to the hospital’s old nurse attendance log—the one we scanned last night—I matched her

The room eventually quieted, but the storm inside me was far from calm.Every breath I took was filtered through rage and fear. My mind wasn’t just on Diane—it was on Paige. If she truly had anything to do with this, it wouldn’t just end with an arrest.It would end with regret.I felt Darlington’s gaze still lingering on me, but I refused to meet it. Not now. Not when the person holding me a minute ago was the same man I was dreamt of marrying. I hated the way the entire situation made me feel,it felt like what I escaped from came looking for me, the infatuation I shared with Shawn, Diane's health crisis,all this were reincarnating, just as I was about to cry my heart out.“Rennie,” Darlington said quietly, coming closer.I stood. “We need to prep for tomorrow. If the warrant is approved, Paige will be under control and we only get one shot.”I gave a slow nod, but something flickered in his eyes—jealousy, maybe. Worry. But again, this wasn’t about us. It was about Diane.Just then,

The buzzing hotel lobby was packed with tension—screens flickering, officers barking updates, and Darlington scanning border footage like a hawk. The scent of strong coffee and static filled the air, blending with the anxiety hanging thick like fog. Shawn’s phone lit up. He answered. “Mr. Shawn, I just heard about Diane’s kidnapping,” Mayor Chesterfield said, his voice entwined with disbelief and panic. “I’m honestly stunned—how the hell did some son of a bitch pull that off in a hospital with 24-hour surveillance? But listen, as mayor, I’ll do everything in my power to catch whoever did this.” Shawn exhaled slowly, jaw tight. “Yes, Mr. Chesterfield. I’m just as surprised. Her entire appearance was erased from the surveillance footage—like she was never there. But on the bright side, the entire police department is on their asses. Diane’s case is the top priority.” There was a heavy pause, like even the mayor couldn’t believe what he was hearing. Before Chesterfield could respon
