Valeria’s POV

The sound of my phone ringing cut through the moment like a blade.

The sharp vibration jolted me back into my body, back into reality, back into the weight of everything Luka had done to me over the years. I gasped, panic surging through me, and shoved him away with all the strength I had left. My hands were shaking as I lunged for the phone, my heart pounding so violently it hurt.

I answered without even checking the caller ID.

“Hello?”

“Valeria, it’s Lillian,” my lawyer said, he

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 108

    Luka’s POVThe house felt wrong when I stepped inside.It was too quiet and polished, too untouched by the chaos that had been tearing through my life. It made me want to turn back and it wasn't for the same reason I'd been running since I divorced her. The quiet gave me time to think, to hear all my mistakes echo in my head. It was torture in of itself. But there was only so far I could run and my current situation didn't afford the time for that.I stood in the foyer for a long second, keys still in my hand, listening to nothing but the faint hum of the air conditioning. Normally that silence comforted me. Tonight, it mocked me.Valeria’s face wouldn’t leave my mind.The way her eyes had looked when I told her I’d withdraw the custody case. Suspicious. Fragile. Hopeful, but afraid to show it.I exhaled slowly and walked straight to my home office.If I hesitated even for a minute, I might lose my nerve.I shut the door behind me, dropped into my chair, and dialed Gregory Wyatt.He

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 107

    Valeria’s POVLuka told me everything.He didn’t spare the details. Not this time.About how this woman who looked exactly like Isis but claimed to be Cassandra Craven showed up at the exact moment he needed a secretary. How she had walked into his office as if fate itself had delivered her. How she had spoken with confidence, presented flawless credentials, and carried herself with that same calculated poise Isis used to weaponize.And how he had been foolish enough to actually hire her.As he spoke, my pulse thudded painfully in my ears.A woman who looked exactly like Isis.Not similar.Not vaguely familiar.Exactly.I felt like the ground beneath me had shifted again, like I had stepped into a world where nothing was stable and nothing made sense anymore.I had so many questions clawing at my throat, but I forced myself to stay quiet. I needed to hear all of it. I needed to understand just how much had been happening behind my back while I’d been fighting for my freedom, my reputa

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 106

    Valeria’s POVThe next few seconds could have been eternity with how hard my heart was beating.The air between us felt fragile. Heavy. Like one wrong word could shatter whatever strange truce had just begun forming.My hand remained on him for a moment longer before I forced myself to speak.“I’ve been through a lot these past couple of years with you at the center of it all. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to forgive you but… as a parent, I understand the part about wanting a relationship with Elliot.”The words tasted raw coming out of my mouth.Admitting that much felt like peeling open a wound that had barely begun to scar. Luka’s eyes widened slightly, genuine surprise flickering across his face. Maybe he hadn’t expected empathy from me. Maybe he didn’t think I had any left to give.But motherhood had changed me.Pain had changed me.And Elliot… Elliot had reshaped the very core of who I was.Luka didn’t interrupt, so I kept going, even though my chest felt tight.“I won’t apo

My hands were shaking as I lunged for the phone, my heart pounding so violently it hurt.I answered without even checking the caller ID.“Hello?”“Valeria, it’s Lillian,” my lawyer said, her voice brisk but gentle in that way she always used when delivering news she knew I wouldn’t like. “I just received confirmation for the next custody hearing.”My stomach dropped.“It’s scheduled for tomorrow.”Tomorrow.The word echoed in my head, shrill and deafening. I had almost forgotten about the custody case entirely. Between the arrest, the poisoning attempt, the fear that someone was actively trying to kill me, my brain had shoved it to the back of my mind just to survive.And now it w

    Valeria's POV Then my phone rang.It was an unknown number and from past experience, my stomach clenched but I answered anyway.“Hello?”“Ms Daelmont,” Officer Roger's voice came through the line. “I trust you got home safely. I’m calling with an update concerning last night's incident.”My breath caught. “Yes?”“The lab results for the food just came in. It was indeed poisoned. The substance detected was Strychnine.”My stomach dropped.“It truly was an assassination attempt. Strychnine is highly lethal even in small doses and has no antidote. You're very lucky, Ms Daelmont. Whoever's after you must have a grudge, I would advise you to be really careful from now on.” Officer Roger divulged, voice low and cautious.His words sent chills down my spine and it suddenly felt a little harder to breathe but I forced my voice out.“Thank you so much, Officer. I'll be careful from now on.”“Good. You didn't strike me as the type to actually kill someone but in my line of work, I've met a lot

    Valeria’s POVThe car had barely come to a stop before I opened the door.I didn't even remember unbuckling my seatbelt. One moment I was sitting there, heart hammering, bracing myself for the reality of home. The next, I was standing on the gravel driveway of the Daelmont mansion, my feet barely touching the ground.“Mommy!”The sound hit me first. That voice. Clear, bright and unmistakably his.I turned just in time to see Elliot sprinting toward me at full speed, his little legs pumping with everything he had. His jacket flapped behind him, his shoes barely keeping up as if his body could not move fast enough to match his relief.My heart leapt painfully in my chest.“Elliot,” I breathed.I dropped to my knees just as he collided with me. The impact nearly knocked the air from my lungs, but I wrapped my arms around him instantly, lifting him off the ground and holding him as tightly as I dared. He clung to me with the same desperation, his arms locking around my neck like he was af
