Claimed By The Billionaires Contract Chapter Twenty Four: He Broke The Promise
Edward smiled lightly at Ethan’s question, but deep down, guilt settled heavily inside him.“Yes baby, but daddy is a bit busy for now,” he replied.Ethan pouted immediately.“But when are we going to visit her Daddy?”Edward really hated lying to him, but right now he needed some distance between himself and Natasha before bringing the children together again. The situation was already complicated enough. Just as he was about to answer his phone suddenly rang.The screen lit up with Emily’s name.A faint smile instantly slipped across his lips. Edward accepted the video call immediately.The moment Emily’s face appeared on the screen, Edward leaned back comfortably against the couch.“Hello, Cupcake.”Emily instantly rolled her eyes.“Stop calling me that.”Edward chuckled.“Do you miss me already?”“I’m not joking, Edward.”“Mmm… but I am serious,” he teased.Emily sighed.“How is Ethan?”Edward glanced at the little boy beside him before looking back at the screen.“He’s fine, but

Edward ignored Ethan’s question, his gaze shifting between both children. Before the silence could become too awkward, he bent low and lifted Ethan into his free arm while Joan remained in the other. The little girl was smiling brightly while Ethan stared at her curiously. Natasha, however, remained still at the entrance. Her eyes stayed fixed on Ethan’s face carefully studying every detail from his brown eyes, the shape of his nose, and his whole features. The resemblance was too obvious to ignore. She felt a strange twist in her chest and she couldn't hold herself back anymore. “Edward…” Her voice came out low but tense. He gave her a cold look. “Whose child is this?” Edward’s jaw tightened. He slowly lowered both children back to the ground. Then he looked at Ethan. “Champ, why don’t you take Joan upstairs and show her your room?” Ethan’s face lit up immediately. “Okay, Daddy!” Without hesitation, he grabbed Joan’s hand excitedly. “Come! I have plenty of toys!

Edward didn’t respond to her question immediately, he just stood there, staring at her, because he understood exactly where that fear was coming from. He then stepped closer.“I’ll bring him back,” he said quietly.Emily stared at his face, like she was searching for even the smallest sign of doubt, but there was none.“I promise you.”The word promise lingered between them.Emily swallowed hard, then nodded. As much as she didn't trust him but for Ethan, she was going to try.Edward gave a small nod in return before turning to Ethan.“Come on, champ.”Ethan beamed, as he held his father’s hand tightly as they stepped out.Emily stood at the door, watching them leave, every step they took felt like something was being pulled out of her chest.Edward fixed Ethan on the passenger seat then got into the driver's seat, and just like that they left.Emily stood there for a while before slowly shutting the door, then turned back into the living room, her eyes instinctively scanning for Eth
Claimed By The Billionaires Contract Chapter Twenty One: A Mother's Fear
Emily was about to put Ethan to bed when her phone vibrated. She glanced at the screen and saw it was Edward. She hesitated for a while before picking up.“Hello?”“Hey…” his voice came through softer than usual.Emily didn’t respond.“I just wanted to check up on you and Ethan,” he added.“We’re fine,” she replied.There was a brief pause before a small voice broke in.“Daddy!”Ethan had snatched the phone from her hand even before she could stop him.Emily sighed quietly, as she watched him.“Hey, champ,” Edward’s voice instantly became warm.“I miss you,” Ethan said.The words landed heavier on Edward than he expected.Emily’s fingers tightened where she stood.“I miss you too, buddy,” Edward replied.“When are you coming?”Edward paused for a second.“Soon,” he said.“Very soon.”Emily stepped closer and gently took the phone back.“That’s enough, Ethan. It’s bedtime,” she said softly.“Okay…” he mumbled reluctantly.She placed him on the bed properly before stepping out of the ro
Claimed By The Billionaires Contract Chapter Twenty: A Trial He Didn't Ask For
Edward’s question hung in the air, but his grandmother didn’t answer him. Instead, she turned her attention away from him completely, as though he didn't utter a word.Edward’s brows furrowed slightly, but before he could push further, she and his grandfather moved toward Joan with warm smiles.“Joan, my dear,” Grandma Pat said, her voice suddenly softened.“Hello, Grandma Pat and Grandpa Simon,” Joan greeted in her British accent. Her tone was smooth and composed. Her posture was elegant.It’s been a while, child.” Grandpa Simon nodded approvingly.“It’s been a while, child.”“It has,” Joan replied, stepping forward.Grandma Pat pulled her into a warm embrace, one that felt too intentional.Edward stood there, watching the exchange, his expression slowly changing. Betty leaned beside him.“Do you know her?” she asked.Edward shook his head slowly.“No, but she looks familiar.”Something about the entire situation didn’t sit right with him.Grandma Pat finally pulled away from Joan, h

The question hung heavy in the air.Emily felt uncomfortable, her chest tightened instantly, and her throat went dry as she struggled to find the right words. For a moment, she just stared at Ethan, her mind was completely blank.What was she supposed to say to him? How was she supposed to explain something she didn’t fully understand herself?Her lips parted slightly, but no words came out. Before she could say anything, Edward stepped in.“It’s because daddy has a lot of work to do,” he said calmly.Both Emily and Ethan turned to look at him.Edward crouched down, his gaze soft as he held Ethan’s small hands in his.“You know Daddy has a lot of work, right?” he continued gently.Ethan sniffled, his teary eyes fixed on him.“Yes…”“And if daddy doesn’t work, who’s going to buy all these toys for you?” he asked, a small smile playing on his lips.Ethan hesitated, his lips wobbling slightly before he nodded slowly.Edward wiped the tears off his cheeks with his thumb.“But I promise yo
