Jasmine's POV

The office was filled with the scent of cinnamon coffee and fresh ink, a scent I never realised I had been hungering for until I stepped into the building. My nameplate, newly installed over the doorway to my office, made me feel protected for the first time in weeks.

The brass letters spelling out "Jasmine Miller, Founder & CEO" appeared to shine with renewed determination. As if they had been waiting for me as well to return. I was home. I was back. My own affair, my own dream.

Sunlight streamed through the top windows of the reception room, bathing golden squares in the very highly polished floor. It was all just as I'd left it, the shiny new modernist furniture placed just so, the motivational posters which I'd myself selected hanging at precise angles, the miniature succulent garden by the window which Rosa would have been potting while I was away. But somehow everything seemed altered. More precious. More my own.

The second I opened the door, heads swivelled. Sente

  • Married To His Billionaire Boss   Chapter 152

    Jasmine’s POVThe sound of glasses clicking together, and soft laughter echoed in the living room, and the scent of Rita’s famous lasagna was filling the air. Everybody was here, my parents, Levi’s grandfather, Ronald, and of course Levi himself, the man who had made the impossible feel inevitable. My cheeks were still aching from smiling too much, and my left hand, which was now adorned with the most beautiful ring I had ever seen, felt heavier in the best way possible.I was engaged again. But this time, it felt as if it was now entirely mine. No lies, no deals, no secrets. Just love, finally returned and renewed.I rested my hand protectively on my stomach, where a flutter of new life was already starting to grow slowly. Four weeks ago, the doctor had said I was pregnant. Just four weeks, but my entire world had already shifted again.I had not even had the opportunity to tell Levi yet.Before I could slip away with him, the front door was opened, and all eyes turned. I had not ex

    Levi’s POVTwo weeks had never felt so fast and yet so full.Every day with Jasmine was very peaceful. There was a quiet certainty to the way she used to laugh now, to the way she had always touched my hand, and to the way we coexisted with our small routines, we made coffee in silence, exchanged kisses in passing, we went on evening walks without pressure. We did not need to overcompensate or try so hard anymore. The pretence stopped.Now we were just us.But I knew there was one more thing left for me to do, to erase every line of falseness that had ever defined our beginning.We started this marriage with signatures and strategy, with an expiration date looming over it like a dark cloud. But everything we had grown through, Jace, Dominic, Naomi, Felicia, embezzlement, secrets, heartbreak, had stripped all that away. We were not surviving a contract anymore. We were building something real.And it was time our families knew just how real this was now.So I made a plan.It was not ex

  • Married To His Billionaire Boss   Chapter 150.

    Levi’s POVThe morning light filtered softly through the curtains, casting faint gold lines across the bed. I was awake before the sun had fully risen, lying on my side and staring at the woman beside me—my wife.Jasmine.The name sounded different in my mind now. Familiar, not just because I had once dated her sister, not just because we had been legally tied. It sounded like something I wanted to protect. Something I needed to fight for. Jasmine—her real name, her whole self.I brushed a strand of hair from her face, letting my fingers graze her skin softly so as not to wake her. She stirred slightly but didn’t open her eyes. She looked so at peace that it made my chest ache. I hadn’t given her enough of this—safety, quiet, assurance. But now I would. I had to.Because this wasn’t a contract anymore.We weren’t pretending anymore.This was us.I let out a quiet breath and slipped out of bed, careful not to disturb her. I padded to the kitchen, brewed a cup of coffee, and stood by th

    JASMINE’S POVThe drive back to my parents’ house was quiet, but not tense. Just… still. A comforting silence, where words didn’t need to be said, because everything had already been felt. Levi’s hand was on the wheel, his eyes focused on the road, and every so often, I caught him glancing my way, offering that small smile I had once memorized but forgotten over time.Now, it was slowly becoming familiar again.I had told him I wanted to officially introduce him to my parents. Not as the man I used to love. Not as my sister’s ex-boyfriend. But as my husband.The man I was slowly starting to forgive.When we pulled into the driveway, I caught my reflection in the side mirror. A part of me felt like the same girl who used to sneak home late, tiptoeing through that same wooden door, trying not to wake anyone. And yet, the woman in the mirror looked older. Weathered. Wiser. Stronger. A little bruised, maybe, but definitely not broken.Levi came around to open the door for me, always the

    JASMINE’S POVThe prison was a half hour outside the city, past chain strip shopping strips and fast food drive-ins, past tidy manor suburban blocks where other folks lived their ordinary, dull lives.My phone buzzed with a text from my mom:Thinking of you, sweetie. You're stronger than you know.I handed it to Levi, who smiled and reached out to pat my knee. "She's right, you know.""Sometimes I do," I admitted. "Today, not so much.""That's okay too."Levi descended to the bottom of the entrance gate as hues in the sky deepened to dusk, last wisps of orange and pink smoking from the horizon. "I will be right here," he panted, his strong eyes on mine. "Take your time. If you wanna go in five minutes, we go. If you need an hour, I'll wait."I nodded, my throat constricting. "Okay."He leaned and kissed me softly, a benediction, a vow. "I love you.""I love you too."The ride through the building was a ride through another planet. I had a soft-eyed guard and soft-spoken guard with m

  • Married To His Billionaire Boss   Chapter 147.

    Jasmine’s POV The phone rang in the middle of the morning, breaking the calm of what seemed like a normal Tuesday.I had just settled in at my desk with my second cup of coffee—the good kind, not the awful stuff from the office machine—looking at the files that had piled up from my firm’s most recent business audit. The sunlight shone through the windows, bright and warm, showing the dust floating around. For the first time in what felt like forever, I started to feel at peace. It was a feeling that suggested things might actually be okay.Then my phone started ringing. A number I didn’t know flashed repeatedly on the screen.I almost didn't answer it. My thumb was close to the decline button—I’d made it a habit to screen calls since everything with Jace fell apart. There were too many reporters and nosy people seeking gossip. But something—maybe intuition, or just my stubbornness that never let things be—pushed me to answer."Hello?""Hello, is this Jasmine Miller?" A strong, stead
