Broken Vows: A Billionaire's Secret The Last Person I’d Ask
CHAPTER 52 ZYLIAH’S POV "What do you mean, ask Sayge?! Delia, you know I can't. Sayge and I are like oil and water. He's an arrogant jerk. Asking him for a favor is like committing suicide. I can't." I shook my head. I couldn’t even imagine going to him for help. He was literally the last person on Mother Earth I’d ever ask. The stupid, pompous jerk! Just the mere thought of going to him bruised my pride and dignity. Actually doing it was burying both. "I know you guys don't get along, and only God knows why." She mumbled that last part, but I heard her. I passed her a pouty look. She flashed a meek smile that easily disappeared as a thin coat of determination spread across her face—she was determined to make me see reasons. But no matter what, I was also determined not to see reasons because, in all honesty, there were none to see. "But Delia, you're not doing this for yourself—you're doing it for Natalie, our best friend. Your best friend longer than I have been. And she
Broken Vows: A Billionaire's Secret Crossroads
CHAPTER 51 ZYLIAH’S POV By the time I was entering Delia’s living room, it was past six p.m.—almost six thirty. I was exhausted by this time. "Zee is here, Natalie. Stop with the tears." Delia’s tone carried her exhaustion too—probably trying to make Natalie stop crying. There was a bottle of corked wine and two glasses. One was almost empty, the other looked barely touched. Natalie lifted her face from the pillow it was buried in and spotted me. She jumped up and approached, hugging me. Ignoring my exhaustion, I stood strong for her and hugged her right back, comforting her with pats and words. I led her to a seat. She wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, sniffling. "What's the update, Zee? Please tell me." Her eyes were as puffy as her nose was blotchy and red. Her gaze was hopeful, drawing more sympathy from me. "He agreed to release Jordan." I started with the good part. Her eyes shone, despair replaced by unbridled joy. "Are you for real?" I nodded. "Yes, he a
Broken Vows: A Billionaire's Secret One Yes Away
CHAPTER 50 ZYLIAH’S POV I rapped lightly on the door, locking eyes with a bodyguard who was pretending not to watch my every move. I looked away, paying attention to the closed door before me. I gave another rap. "You can use the doorbell, miss," the bodyguard advised. "Oh." I felt a little embarrassed. I didn't even see the doorbell. I pressed it. Many times. Before someone finally opened. A maid in her thirties. Early thirties, I think. "Hello, miss," she greeted politely, but there was no trace of a smile. "Hi. I'm here to see Mr. Delson." She studied my appearance. "His son doesn’t live here. He only visits now and then.” I frowned. Why would she assume who I was here to see? "I'm actually here to see the father. Not the son.” "Oh." A frown appeared, her dark brown eyes noticeably judgy. "Do you have an appointment?" "Yes. Go tell him Zyliah is here to see him." I was beginning to get irritated by her. Was she a maid or his wife? "Zyliah who?" she probed further. I
Broken Vows: A Billionaire's Secret The Countdown Begins
CHAPTER 49 ZYLIAH’S POV "It's such a lovely afternoon." Discussions about Claire forgotten, Grandma Charlotte visibly relaxed in the chair, leaning back to make herself more comfortable. "Yes, it is," I said, absentmindedly watching the kids play with floaters. I wanted to call them in before they caught a cold, but I didn't have the heart to ruin their fun. Plus, it gave me time for myself. I was going to make sure they bathed with warm water when they were done. "How's it going?" she asked, her tone hinting exactly at what I thought it was. My next response was a shrug. "To be honest, I don't think it's going to go the way you planned.” "Don't give up." She frowned a little—not out of annoyance or anger, just something reflexive. "Why don't you tell Claire? I mean, they've clearly known each other for years." "Yet no change from him? If anything, he got worse. I didn't even know about her until a few days ago. I know my grandson, Zyliah. When he loves, he loves loud. Dote

CHAPTER 48ZYLIAH’S POV"When will the documents be ready?" I asked, taking a sip of the mocktail I’d mixed myself while listening to Julia Fawn, the realtor I’d once planned to buy a house through.I’d already explained my living situation and how unlikely it was that I would be buying a home now. She’d understand.To make up for the change, I asked her to find me a large building instead and explained my plan to open a new branch here.After a long, heartfelt conversation with my best friends, they advised me to keep the company running in Fidelston—the city I had left Greenvylle for—and focus on opening a new branch here instead.And I agreed with them. So I was opening a new one here, something I would manage myself until I could find someone capable—someone who could take over so I’d have more time for my boys.With Julia’s help, I’d just bought a new building, though the documents were still being finalized."Soon, ma'am." "Alright. You've been a big help so far, Julie. Thank
Broken Vows: A Billionaire's Secret The Legacy Obsession
CHAPTER 47 MARTINO’S POV I was in my private study when the telephone rang. I didn’t waste time picking it up—I already had a strong hunch who might be calling—and put it on loudspeaker. "Hello?" "Good afternoon, Mr. Delson." The familiar voice of my 'little birdie' echoed in the quiet of my study. "Hang on. I'm coming." I stood up and walked to check if the door was locked. Once I confirmed it was locked, and with the walls being soundproof, I felt confident no one could overhear. I returned to my chair. "Any update?" I got straight to the point, reaching into the top drawer of my desk for my cigar and lighter. I lit a fresh stick and puffed smoke as I listened, being fed information. A new woman, named Claire, showed up at the house today with a five-year-old daughter. Turns out Mr. Williams Jr. has another child—with her.” "Claire who? Did you get a surname?" "I think I heard Grandma Charlotte introduce her to Zyliah as Claire Bermout." "Alright." I made a
