Valeria's POV

"Hello?"

"Valeria dear, this is Isabella Thorne."

The relief that flooded through me was so intense. It was just Luka's mother.

"Mrs. Thorne, I wasn't expecting to hear from you." I couldn't keep the smile away from my tone.

There was a pause on the other end of the line. When she spoke again, her voice was gentle. "I'm sorry for calling out of the blue. I hope I'm not interrupting anything important."

"No, not at all. I was just working. How are you?"

"I'm doing well, thank you f

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 119

    Valeria’s POVThe words felt unreal at first. They hovered in the air between us like something poisonous, something too twisted and absurd for my brain to fully process. But no matter how badly I wanted to dismiss Terra as a liar or a lunatic, I couldn’t deny what I had seen with my own eyes.Those scars definitely weren’t fake.The memory of them flashed through my mind again and my stomach twisted violently. The burn marks. The raised flesh. The ugly, uneven patches spread across her skin like evidence of prolonged torture. No amount of makeup or theatrics could fabricate something that horrific.I hated that part of me softened at the sight.I hated that despite everything, despite twenty-six years of resentment and abandonment and grief, there was still a part of me that reacted instinctively to her pain.Forcing down the voice in my head that reminded me I couldn’t trust her, I let out a slow breath and moved away from the door, lowering myself back into the chair.“ You have 5

    Valeria's POV “Don’t pretend like you suddenly care for me,” I cut in sharply, my patience snapping. “What is this really about, Terra?”The name slipped out with intention.I saw it hit her immediately. Her eyes widened ever so slightly, the faintest crack in her composure. Good. She didn’t deserve to be called anything else. She wasn’t my mother. Not anymore.“Valeria, please just—”“This is about money, isn’t it?” I interrupted again, my tone laced with biting sarcasm. “Going by your appearance, you’re in desperate need of some cash. Wherever the hell you’ve been didn’t favor you, huh? You couldn’t show your face to Dad so you came to me because you still think I’m that helpless little kid who couldn’t live without her Mom.”“No, sweetheart. You’ve got it all wrong. Please just listen to me for a second—”“Stop it!” I snapped, my voice rising. “Stop with the emotional blackmail, it won’t work on me. I’ve already lost all respect for you, don’t make me lose my humanity as well. If

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 117

    Valeria’s POVWhen I opened my eyes, the first thing that hit me was the unfamiliarity.It wasn’t just the room. It was the silence, the stillness, the way everything felt slightly… off, like I had woken up in a place that didn’t belong to me. For a few seconds, I simply lay there, staring at the ceiling, trying to make sense of what I was seeing. My brain felt slow, sluggish, like it was struggling to catch up with reality.Then I tried to move.The moment I pushed myself up even slightly, a sharp, piercing pain shot through my head, so sudden and intense that I gasped and dropped back onto the bed immediately. A high-pitched ringing followed, echoing through my skull like a warning siren, and I squeezed my eyes shut, gripping the sheets tightly as I tried to breathe through it.What the hell…My hand instinctively moved to my head, fingers brushing against something rough and unfamiliar. Bandages.That was enough to send my survival instincts into overdrive.My eyes snapped open aga

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 116

    Valeria's POV Because she was pulling me along so urgently, I couldn’t see her face. The hood of her sweatshirt obscured most of her features, and all I could make out were fragments. She was definitely a middle-aged woman, dressed in simple grey sweatpants and a hoodie that looked worn but clean. Her build was a little on the heavier side, nothing remarkable, but her grip on my wrist was firm and steady.And her hand…It was soft. Warm. Comforting in a way that made no sense given the situation.That same wave of familiarity washed over me again, stronger this time, and it unsettled me deeply. I had no reason to trust her. After everything that had happened today, trusting anyone felt like the fastest way to get myself killed. And yet, something deep inside me insisted that she wasn’t with Isis. That she hadn’t been sent to finish what the others started.But if not that… then what?“At least tell me where we’re going,” I pressed, my voice tightening as my head throbbed violently wit

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 115

    Valeria's POV The moment they closed in around me, forming a loose but unmistakable circle, I knew there was no escaping this without playing along. Every instinct in my body screamed at me to run, to fight, to do something—anything—but the cold, unyielding press of the gun at my back was enough to silence every reckless impulse. I could try screaming for help, but what good would that do? Wouldn't I just end up with a bullet lodged in my spine before anyone could even process what was happening?No. It wasn’t worth the risk.If I died now, Isis would win. She would get away with everything—every lie, every scheme, every attempt on my life. I had come too far, endured too much, to let it end like this.So I nodded.It was small, barely perceptible, but it was enough. The man behind me seemed satisfied because the pressure of the gun shifted slightly, and one of the others gestured sharply toward a narrow alleyway just a few feet away. My legs felt unsteady as I moved, my heart slammi

  • Hiding The Billionaire's Son After Divorce    Chapter 114

    Valeria's POV My words came out rushed, slightly slurred as I struggled to speak through the pain and panic.“She destroyed the tires of my car and I know she's going to come out of that door any minute. I'm in my car right now and I feel like a sitting duck about to be picked for slaughter. What do I do?”There was a brief pause.Then his voice came back, steady and firm.“OK. Please relax, Valeria. You'll be fine. Just take a deep breath for me.”I obeyed, forcing in a shaky breath.“I'm coming there right now but you can't stay there and wait for me since Isis is dangerous. Don't stay in the car. Leave there on foot and take your phone with you. Find somewhere to hide out like a store or a church. Make sure there are lots of people around so she can't pull anything. Do you understand?”“Yes.”“Now please go. I'm on my way there right now.”I could hear movement on his end. Shuffling. A car door slamming.“OK. Please come quickly, I'm scared.”“You're a smart woman, Valeria. You ca

    Luka's POV Anger flared hot in my chest. "What gave you the right—""After working with you these past weeks, watching you, I realized you had nothing to do with my sister's death," Cassandra interrupted. "Which meant Valeria must have been working alone. She killed Isis out of jealousy because sh

    Luka's POV I stared at Cassandra, trying to process everything she'd just told me. "I suppose from an outside perspective, it does look suspicious," I admitted, my voice hoarse. "Valeria attended Isis's funeral and the sight of her shedding what I assumed were crocodile tears triggered me so much
