Hired a Gigolo, Got a Billionaire Chapter 680
Gwen's POV The air outside hit my face like a cold slap when I stepped out of the event building. It wasn't even a cold day, but I was burning from the inside out. Burning with anger. With adrenaline. With the shame of losing control. With a disbelief that made everything feel slightly off balance. I kept my spine straight. Chin up. The same expression I used in meetings with men who thought I should be grateful just to be sitting at the table. Except this time, it wasn't a table. It was a patrol car. "Ms. Kensington, please," the officer repeated. His tone wasn't rude, but it wasn't optional either. I glanced around the parking lot, as if logic might be hiding somewhere between the concrete lines. "This is… serious?" I asked, and my voice came out steadier than I felt. "There has been a report of assault," he replied, professional and detached. "The person who filed the report has visible injuries consistent with that claim. We need to bring you in for questioning."

Renee's POV The bathroom floor was cold enough to remind me I was human. The metallic taste in my mouth didn't help. I blinked slowly, trying to piece together the images that were still flashing behind my eyes. The crack of her hand. The force of her body coming at me. The fury in Gwen Kensington's eyes like she had spent her entire life training for that exact second. I hadn't anticipated that. I had imagined Gwen the way I always imagined women like her. Too polished to sweat. Too refined to bite. The kind who take a hit gracefully and then buy the world's silence with a check. But she had fight in her. And worse than that, it was the kind of fight that humiliates. It wasn't just the physical pain. It was the feeling of being put in my place. Made small. Made disposable. Made pathetic. I clenched my teeth. Pain pulsed up my temple, and I forced myself to breathe through my nose, slow and controlled, as if calm could erase what had just happened. No. I wouldn'

Gwen's POV I walked out of the restroom as if nothing had happened. The door closed behind me with a soft, almost polite click, and I made my way down the narrow hallway without looking back, even with the metallic taste of blood lingering at the corner of my mouth. I brushed the back of my hand across it, disguising the motion as if I were fixing a strand of hair. Red. Just a thin streak, but enough to remind me I had crossed a line I had spent my entire life avoiding. I didn't like physical fights. Not because I was weak. Far from it. But because ninety-nine percent of the time, things can be handled with words. Renee was my one percent. She had a sick talent for turning air into a blade. For finding, with surgical precision, the exact pressure point that makes a smart woman lose her intelligence for two seconds. And if someone dragged me into a fight… I wasn't going to lose. That's a skill you develop when you grow up being shoved into lockers by people who t
Hired a Gigolo, Got a Billionaire Chapter 677
Gwen's POV The door was locked. The click still echoed in my head like a warning. No one was coming in here by accident. Outside, the muffled noise of the event carried on. Laughter, footsteps, a microphone being tested. In here, I was just a woman trying not to fall apart. Renee, on the other hand, looked far too comfortable. Leaning against the sink with the posture of someone who felt like she owned the place, as if an event restroom were just another extension of her world. I stepped further into the room, making it clear that I wasn't going to back down simply because she fed on retreat. "I know exactly what you want," I began. "And let me save you some time. You're never getting a cent of my money." "Oh…" she said, sounding almost pleased. "That's adorable. The billionaire thinks the center of the universe is her bank account." It might have been funny if it hadn't been so calculated. If she weren't trying to turn me into a caricature. The untouchable rich woman who

Gwen's POV For a second, I just stared at the microphone like it was a neutral object. Then I smiled. Polite enough not to turn into a headline. "Thank you for the question," I said in the same tone I would've used to answer something about cash flow or market expansion. "A child's emotional adjustment is a process, not an event. What usually works best, regardless of family structure, is consistency. Routine. Predictability. Age-appropriate communication. And an environment where the child feels safe expressing what they're feeling." I stopped there on purpose. No "in my home." No "in my family." Nothing that could be twisted into ammunition. My job had always been choosing words the way I chose numbers. Carefully. With consequences in mind. Renee tilted her head slightly, like she was selecting the best angle for her next strike. It was subtle, but I recognized that body language. I grew up around people who smiled while they cut. "I see," she continued, her calm perfec

Gwen's POV If this event hadn't been scheduled months ago, with printed invitations, blocked calendars, confirmed RSVPs, and a fully aligned team, I wouldn't have gone. I would have come up with an elegant excuse. An unavoidable meeting. A sudden migraine. A "last-minute emergency" delivered with the ease of someone who, honestly, could afford to disappear for a night. But it wasn't just a night. It was a stage. A microphone. A photo. A title: Women and Leadership. And in the last few days, my life had turned into a series of small survivals that didn't fit neatly into a panel discussion. I stood in front of the bedroom mirror, adjusting a simple earring, when Nick appeared behind me. He didn't say anything right away. He just watched me with that look that always seemed to know what I wasn't saying. He stepped closer and rested his hands on the vanity on either side of me, without trapping me in. It was a simple gesture, and still, I felt like someone had set a comfortin

Madeline's POV Margaret had worked miracles. When Annie and Nate arrived at eight that evening, the apartment was spotless, and the rich, comforting aroma of porcini mushroom risotto filled the air. Marcus and I were both ready. He wore a dark blue dress shirt that made his eyes stand out, and I h

Marcus' POV I woke up to Madeline shifting restlessly beside me. The digital clock on the nightstand read 2:45 a.m., and she was clearly struggling to find a comfortable position. She turned to one side, then the other, sighed, adjusted her pillow, and started the whole cycle again. "Are you oka

Madeline's POV I was sitting on the bed, watching Olivia choose clothes from the closet, when I suddenly felt the urge to say out loud what had been running through my mind for days. "Olivia," I started hesitantly, "I feel like I'm living some kind of teenage dream." She stopped rummaging thro

Madeline's POV That kiss was not an invitation. It was a claim. A mark of possession I hadn't realized how badly I needed until his lips moved over mine with a fierce, possessive hunger that stole my breath. Every doubt, every shard of insecurity that had eaten at me just minutes earlier melted aw
