Five Years On The Run: The Billionaire's Secret Baby DAILINESS
ColetteWe stayed in bed until nearly five, which was something I had not done in the entirety of my adult life.Eventually Oliver got up. I watched him move around the room from where I lay propped against the pillows, unhurried, unselfconscious, reaching for a shirt from his dresser without any awareness of being observed, without any of the careful composure I'd grown so used to seeing him wear for the rest of the world. This was a version of him I didn't think many people got to see. Not investors. Not board members. Probably not even Leon, who knew more of his private life than almost anyone.I stored the image somewhere permanent, in the same mental place I kept things I didn't want to lose. The particular way his shoulders moved as he pulled the shirt over his head. The unguarded ease of him crossing the room barefoot. The small, private, unremarkable moment of a man simply existing in his own space, comfortable enough in my presence to stop performing entirely."I need to deal
Five Years On The Run: The Billionaire's Secret Baby NO CLOCK BETWEEN US
ColetteI was out of breath by the time we broke the kiss, my hand still fisted in the front of his shirt, my lips swollen and my heart hammering somewhere up near my throat, and it was only then that he lifted me off the counter with a low growl that seemed to come from somewhere he didn't usually let anyone hear, some part of him he kept locked away behind boardrooms and careful composure for everyone but me.He didn't stop moving until we were in his room, carrying me the entire way like I weighed nothing at all, his stride sure and unhurried despite the urgency I could feel radiating off him, and even then I clung to him, my arms locked around his neck, unwilling to let even a few inches of space open up between us, as though putting me down might somehow undo whatever had just been decided between us in the kitchen.He set me down at the edge of the bed and kissed me again, and this time the thunderstorm still rattling the windows outside felt impossibly far away, like weather be
Five Years On The Run: The Billionaire's Secret Baby CATALOGUE
Colette By eleven we'd drifted back into the kitchen, both of us loose and unhurried in a way that felt almost illegal on a Monday, like two people who had nowhere in the world to be and no intention of pretending otherwise. The rain had settled into something steadier outside, less dramatic than it had been an hour before, a soft gray backdrop against the kitchen window that made the whole morning feel suspended somehow, held apart from the rest of the week. I decided to make breakfast, even though it was technically well past the hour breakfast was supposed to happen, closer to brunch than anything a normal person would call morning food. Oliver settled himself on one of the stools at the kitchen island with his coffee, watching me move around his kitchen with an expression I couldn't quite name, something between contentment and quiet fascination, like he found the sight of me in his space more interesting than anything on his phone, which for a man like him was saying something.
Five Years On The Run: The Billionaire's Secret Baby WINDFALL
ColetteIt was Monday, and even though the kids had spent the entire weekend at my place, I drove them to Oliver's that morning so they could be properly delivered to school from his door, the way we'd quietly settled into doing without ever formally agreeing to it, the routine simply forming itself around us like water finding the lowest point in a room.I watched them from the front hallway as they gathered their things, Elijah automatically reaching to check the side pocket of Lea's backpack, the way he always did now without seeming to notice he was doing it, making sure her water bottle was in there, making sure her folder hadn't slipped out somewhere between the kitchen and the door.Lea, in turn, leaned toward him and said something too quiet for me to catch, something that made the corner of his mouth twitch upward before he caught himself andsmoothed his face back into its usual careful neutrality, the mask he still hadn't fully learned to set down even with her. I'd learned
Five Years On The Run: The Billionaire's Secret Baby INFORMATION
ColetteThe email came through the hotel's professional channel on a Tuesday morning, formal enough that I almost forwarded it straight to Priya without reading it fully, assuming it was another vendor pitch dressed up in careful language. I had three other emails open in adjacent tabs, invoices and a staffing question and something from maintenance about the west wing plumbing, and this one almost got lost in the ordinary noise of a Tuesday.Then I saw the name. Layla Osei.The woman from the photograph. The one from Oliver's quarterly dinner, the one I'd spent an entire day spiraling over months ago, convinced she was some sleek, effortless rival I'd never be able to compete with. I hadn't thought about her in weeks, and here she was, sitting in my inbox like she'd never left my head at all.She introduced herself properly this time. Founder of a hospitality investment group operating across six countries. She wanted to meet with me, she said, and she wanted to be clear upfront t
Five Years On The Run: The Billionaire's Secret Baby FAVORITE PERSON
ColetteHe came to my apartment a few hours later, still in the shirt he must have worn to the office, his tie already gone, his sleeves pushed up like he'd rolled them somewhere between his car and my door. He looked tired in a way I hadn't seen before, or maybe I simply hadn't let myself notice it until now, until I had a reason to look at him differently than I had that morning.I didn't offer him a drink. I didn't sit him down with any ceremony or preamble. I just told him what I knew, plainly, in the order I'd learned it. Betty. Three months. Seven years ago. The illness that moved too fast for anyone to prepare for it. The timeline that lined up with everything that had come after, with Elijah, with Lea, with me.I told him how I'd found out, too. Helena, the lunch, the careful way she'd delivered it like a gift she'd been saving. Priya, the name, the dates, the financial records I'd remembered on my own.Then I stopped talking and gave him the room.He was quiet for a long m
