Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO EPILOGUE—WHAT REMAINS
Elena once believed endings were loud.She thought they announced themselves with final arguments, decisive victories, or irrevocable loss. That they arrived fully formed, demanding attention, insisting on being recognized.But standing by the window in the quiet hours before dawn, she understood how wrong she had been.Endings were quiet.They slipped into place gently, disguised as ordinary mornings and familiar silences. They did not interrupt life. They blended into it, becoming part of what endured.The baby slept against her chest, warm and impossibly light. Elena adjusted her hold without thinking, swaying in a rhythm she had learned by instinct rather than instruction. Motherhood had not arrived like a revelation. It had grown into her, reshaping her world one small moment at a time.Behind her, Adrian stirred.She sensed him before she heard him — the shift of weight, the quiet presence moving closer.“You’re up early,” he murmured.“So are you.”He joined her at the window,
Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO CHAPTER 159 — HOME
Elena woke to the sound of rain.It tapped softly against the glass walls of the penthouse, steady and unhurried, as though the sky itself had decided to slow down. The light outside was muted, washed in gray, and for a moment she lay still, letting the rhythm of it settle her breathing.Home, she thought.Not the place exactly. Not the penthouse with its height and glass and quiet luxury. Home was the feeling that had begun to return to her chest—the sense that she could exhale without bracing for impact.Adrian stirred beside her.“Rain,” he murmured, eyes still closed.“I know,” she said. “It’s nice.”He smiled faintly and shifted closer, one arm wrapping around her waist. His hand rested there without tension, without that subconscious tightening she had felt so often before. It was a small thing. It meant everything.They didn’t rush the morning.Elena moved slowly, deliberately, mindful of her body but no longer afraid of it. Adrian brewed c
Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO CHAPTER 158 — THE CALM AFTER FIRE
The first thing Elena noticed was how ordinary the morning felt.Sunlight spilled across the floor in soft, unremarkable bands. The city hummed beyond the glass, indifferent and persistent. For the first time in days, there were no hushed voices in the hallway, no sudden tension in the air, no sense that danger might burst through the door without warning.Ordinary, she realized, could be its own kind of miracle.She lay still for a moment, listening. Adrian’s breathing was slow and even beside her. He slept deeply, one arm draped protectively across her waist, his hand resting just above her abdomen. The weight of it was familiar, grounding rather than confining.She didn’t move until he stirred on his own.“Morning,” she whispered.He opened his eyes, blinking against the light. For a brief second, confusion crossed his face—then awareness settled in, and with it a gentler expression than she’d seen in days.“Morning,” he replied. “How do you feel?”She checked in with her body. The
Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO CHAPTER 157 — CHOOSING EACH OTHER
Morning arrived in fragments.Light filtered through the curtains in pale, uncertain streaks, touching the edges of the room without fully claiming it. Elena surfaced slowly from sleep, her mind drifting up through layers of half-formed dreams and distant sounds. For a moment, she didn’t move. She listened—to her breathing, to the quiet hum of the penthouse, to the steady presence beside her.Adrian lay on his side, facing her.He hadn’t slept.She could tell by the tension in his jaw, by the faint shadows beneath his eyes, by the way his gaze sharpened the instant he sensed her waking. He looked at her as though she were something precious and breakable all at once.“You’re awake,” he said softly.She nodded. “How long have you been watching me?”“Long enough,” he replied.Elena shifted, propping herself up on one elbow. The nausea from the night before had receded into a dull memory, leaving behind exhaustion and a strange, aching clarity.“I’m
Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO CHAPTER 156 — WHEN THE WORLD TILTS
The first thing Elena noticed when she woke was the quiet. Not the peaceful kind, not the gentle hush of early morning, but the unnatural stillness that felt imposed rather than earned. The city beyond the glass walls seemed paused, as though someone had pressed a finger to the pulse of the world and held it there. Her second realization came slowly, like a shadow stretching across her thoughts. Adrian wasn’t beside her. She sat up, blinking against the light filtering through the curtains. For a moment, dizziness threatened to pull her back down, but she breathed through it, grounding herself the way she had learned to do these past weeks. Her hand went instinctively to her abdomen. The familiar awareness was there, steady, quiet. That helped. She swung her legs over the side of the bed and stood. The penthouse was awake. Not with noise—but with presence. Muted footsteps echoed from the corridor. Low voices murmured behind closed doors. The faint electronic hum of systems tha
Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO CHAPTER 155 — BLOOD AND OATHS
The night before the gala passed without incident, and that alone unsettled Adrian.He lay awake beside Elena, listening to the steady rhythm of her breathing, the soft brush of the sheets as she shifted in her sleep. Her hand rested lightly against her abdomen, as though even unconscious she was aware of the life growing there. The sight filled his chest with something fierce and aching all at once.Silence had never meant safety.By morning, the city was draped in gray, clouds hanging low and heavy as if the sky itself were holding its breath. Elena stood before the mirror in the bedroom, adjusting the fall of her dress with careful precision. It was elegant without being ostentatious, soft lines that moved with her body rather than constraining it. She looked like herself again—composed, unbowed.“You don’t have to do this,” Adrian said from behind her.She met his gaze in the mirror. “I want to.”He nodded, accepting the answer for what it was. Choice.
