The wedding: Part 2

last update Last Updated: 2025-08-15 04:52:00

The wedding crowd was buzzing. People floated between tables like colorful fish in a coral reef, smiling, hugging, air-kissing. Almost everyone who passed our table stopped to greet me.

“Sierra! You look amazing,” one woman gushed, touching my arm.

“Thank you,” I replied with the kind of polite smile you reserve for strangers who know more about your life than you wish they did.

A couple of industry acquaintances waved from across the room. A man I barely knew asked if I’d had the baby yet — which made Becca choke on her water. I deflected with a soft laugh and another empty smile.

The ceremony began soon after, soft music floating in as Sabrina made her entrance. She looked exactly how I expected: flawless in a gown that probably cost more than my car, her hand delicately looped through Rolland’s arm as they walked. Applause rippled through the crowd, but my hands stayed in my lap.

Becca leaned toward me. “Her veil’s nice. Shame it’s hiding her real face.”

I bit back a laugh, m

  • Billionairess By Survival    When Prayers is all that's left

    LIAM'S POINT OF VIEW I was pacing the length of the sterile corridor, my chest rising and falling like I’d just run ten marathons back-to-back. My heart felt as though someone had jammed it into a vice and was tightening it with every tick of the second hand. Every passing doctor, every nurse who strolled by without so much as looking in my direction, only made my blood boil hotter.“Where the hell is she?” I snapped, my voice echoing in the too-bright, too-quiet hallway.Becca touched my arm lightly, her voice calm but firm. “Liam, you need to chill.”“Chill?” I barked, my eyes snapping to hers. “Don’t you dare tell me to chill, Becca. Sierra is in there! My child is in there! And they’re not telling me anything—nothing!” My voice cracked on the last word, that raw edge of desperation I couldn’t hide anymore.Becca winced but didn’t back down. “Liam… the only thing we can do right now is pray.”“Pray?” I repeated, dragging a hand through my hair, nearly pulling it out. My mind could

  • Billionairess By Survival    A moment to breathe

    LIAM'S POINT OF VIEW The sound of the crowd roaring wasn’t excitement anymore—it was chaos. My chest tightened the moment I saw it happen. One second, Seirra was standing, her hand brushing her hair back in that calm way she always did when things got overwhelming. The next, someone swung something—metal, wood, I didn’t even know—and it connected with her head. The crack was faint, but my soul heard it louder than anything else.“Seirra!”My voice broke before I even realized I was screaming. My legs moved on instinct, pushing me forward, but the mob was too much. The moment she hit the ground, panic spread through the crowd like fire. People shoved, phones were raised, flashes from cameras blinded my eyes, and my bodyguards were struggling to clear a path. I was losing her in the noise.Shit. Shit. Shit.This wasn’t supposed to happen. Not like this. She was carrying my child. My child. And in the middle of all this madness, she lay there, her hair fanned out, blood already streakin

    SEIRRA'S POINT OF VIEW Bianca’s heels clicked against the marble floor as she made her way toward our table, her champagne glass already in hand. I could feel Becca stiffen beside me, and Liam’s thumb rubbed slow, grounding circles on the back of my hand.“Well, well, well,” Bianca began, stopping just short of our table. “Sierra Morgan. You’ve been quiet tonight. That’s… unusual.”I didn’t answer. I’d learned that with Bianca, silence was often the sharpest weapon.But she just smirked, clearly not deterred. “I think this room could use a little… entertainment.” And before I could even process what she meant, she was sashaying toward the stage, the clink of her glass echoing through the chatter.“Oh, no,” Becca muttered.Bianca took the mic from the DJ like she’d been rehearsing for this moment her whole life. She turned toward Sabrina and Rolland, smiling sweetly.“I’d like to make a toast,” she said, her voice syrupy and loud enough for everyone to hear. “To my best friend, Sabrin

    SEIRRA'S POINT OF VIEW I stared at my reflection in the mirror, unsure if I recognized the woman staring back. My skin looked flawless, thanks to Becca’s magic hands, but my eyes… my eyes still carried the weight of sleepless nights, the hospital corridors, and the constant hum of fear I’d been living in.“You look like a goddess,” Becca said, stepping back to admire her work. She was already dressed, her wine-colored dress hugging her figure perfectly. “Trust me, Sierra, nobody’s gonna even breathe wrong around you tonight.”I snorted softly. “Except Bianca. And maybe Tessa.”“Bianca can eat air and choke on it,” Becca said, picking up the highlighter again and dusting my cheekbones. “And Tessa? She’s the least of your problems. That girl can barely keep her lipstick in place, let alone her morals.”I gave a small laugh but my chest felt tight. Liam wasn’t coming. He’d texted earlier that he was staying with Claire tonight, which made sense. She was still in a coma, and even though

  • Billionairess By Survival    Relief and Exhaustion

    SIERRA'S POINT OF VIEW I don’t think I’ve ever felt relief and exhaustion at the same time until today.The hospital finally called me this morning—there’s a donor for Mum. It took everything in me not to break down right there in the hallway. I don’t even remember how I got from the hospital back home, but I know my legs were shaking the whole time.I’d already signed the necessary documents, paid for the surgery, and made sure the doctors had everything they needed. They promised it would happen in a few days. For the first time in what felt like forever, I could breathe without that crushing weight in my chest.Liam had gone home to rest—God knows he needed it. Claire was still in a coma, and he’d been sitting by her side almost twenty-four hours a day. I told him to get some sleep, but I know he won’t rest for long. He’s not built for sitting still when the people he loves are in pain.But what really got to me wasn’t the exhaustion, it was the silence.Tessa, Logan, Sabrina, Bia
