Hidden Pregnancy: The Boss’s Secret Triplets CHAPTER 12
JULIAN POV The line crackled for a split second before her voice came through, thin and tentative. "Julian? Yes, we just got here a little while ago. Marcus is checking the property now." I let out a breath I hadn't realized I was holding, leaning my forehead against the cool glass of my office window. The city lights below were a blur of yellow and red, but my mind was entirely focused on the quiet farmhouse three hours north. "Is the place alright? Is it warm enough?" "It’s fine," Maya said. I could hear the faint sound of a plastic bottle wrinkling on her end. "It’s quiet. Really quiet. What happened after I left, Julian? Did his lawyers come?" "They came," I said, straightening up and walking back over to my desk. The large manila envelope Arthur’s courier had left was sitting right in the center of the mahogany wood, still sealed. I hadn't opened it yet. I didn't need to. "Two of them. Along with a private investigator who looked very disappointed when he realized Marcus’s ca

MAYA POV The gravel road seemed to go on forever, clicking against the underside of the sedan in a steady, monotonous rhythm. The dense pine trees finally gave way to an open clearing just as the afternoon sun started to dip below the tree line. In the middle of the field sat the farmhouse. It was an old, white two-story building with peeling paint on the porch railing and a small gravel driveway. It didn't look dangerous, but it didn't look like the luxury corporate suites I had grown used to over the past week either. It looked isolated. Marcus brought the car to a smooth stop right next to the porch steps. He turned off the engine, and the sudden silence of the countryside felt heavy, almost ringing in my ears after three hours of highway white noise. "We’re here, Miss Brooks," Marcus said, unbuckling his seatbelt. He turned around to face me, giving me a reassuring nod. "My sister hasn't lived here in two years, but I had a local service clean the place last week. It should

MAYA POV The duffel bag on the bed was too big for the few things I was actually taking. My hands wouldn't stop shaking as I shoved two oversized sweaters, a pair of sweatpants, and my toothbrush into the dark canvas. Every sound in the penthouse felt magnified—the distant hum of Julian’s voice in the hallway, the rustle of the curtains, the soft thud of Marcus’s boots as he waited by the front door. "You don't need to pack the entire closet, Maya," Julian said, stepping into the room. He had his coat back on, his collar turned up against the chill that seemed to be settling into the apartment. He looked entirely back in control, his face a smooth mask of corporate determination. But when he reached down to zip the bag for me, I noticed the slight tightness in his jaw. "I’m packing what’s mine," I said, pulling the strap over my shoulder. "Which isn't much, considering you bought most of the stuff in here anyway." Julian didn't argue. He took the bag from my hand, his fingers bru

JULIAN POV "What kind of note, Maya?" I demanded, my hand tightening around the phone until my knuckles turned white. I stepped out from behind the desk, pacing the length of my office. "It’s from your father," her voice came through the line, quiet but remarkably steady. Too steady. "He says he knows where I am. He wants to talk before you find out who he is." I stopped dead in my tracks, staring out at the grey skyline. "Don't touch it. Don't reply to it. I’m coming back right now." "Julian, wait—" I cut the call, shoved the phone into my pocket, and grabbed my jacket from the sofa. I didn't bother waiting for the elevator to clear; I slammed my hand against the button for the private garage, my pulse drumming a heavy, furious rhythm against my ribs. Arthur had bypassed my security without even setting foot in the building. He had used the pharmacy. He had bought off a courier or a clerk just to drop a piece of paper into a sealed bag. It was a warning shot, a reminder that non

JULIAN POV The leather seats of the sedan were cold, but the silence inside the car was colder. I stared out the tinted window as the city blurred past, my fingers tapping a slow, rhythmic pattern against my knee. On the armrest between us, my tablet flickered with incoming emails from the London office, but I couldn't bring myself to read them. "We're three minutes ahead of schedule, Mr. Sterling," Marcus said, his eyes meeting mine in the rearview mirror. "Should I take the expressway or go through the financial district?" "The expressway," I replied, my voice sounding tight even to my own ears. "Let's get this over with." "Yes, sir." Marcus adjusted the wheel, turning the heavy car onto the ramp. My mind kept drifting back to the penthouse. To the kitchen counter. To the way Maya had looked at me when she asked if I was going to buy her off. She had looked small standing against that massive marble island, but her eyes had been entirely fierce. She wasn't like the board member

MAYA POV The mug of ginger tea was warm against my palms, the steam rising between us like a thin curtain. Across the marble island, Julian was focused on his tablet, his thumb flicking across the screen in a steady, rhythmic pattern. The morning sun was just starting to hit the kitchen, making the stainless-steel appliances look even colder than usual. "You're not working today?" I asked, taking a careful sip. Julian didn't look up immediately. He finished typing a response, set the tablet face down, and reached for his coffee. "I shifted my morning meetings to the afternoon. Dr. Aris sent over the prescription for your morning sickness. Marcus is picking it up now." "I told you, it’s getting better. I didn't throw up at all yesterday." "You didn't eat anything until noon yesterday," he countered, his eyes fixing on mine. "That isn't 'better,' Maya. That’s just having an empty stomach." I set my mug down a little harder than I intended, the liquid sloshing near the rim. "I'm tr
