Married to the Cold Billionaire After Betraying Him Chapter 76: Robin's Calling
Robin was fifteen when she first asked to spend her summer working at the foundation, approaching Amelia with a seriousness that immediately signaled this wasn't simply a casual request for pocket money. "I want to actually understand what you do," she said, settling across from Amelia at the kitchen table with the focused determination that had become increasingly characteristic of her teenage years. "Not just hear about it at dinner. I want to see it firsthand, help with real work, understand why this matters so much to you." Amelia felt a swell of pride at her daughter's genuine curiosity, though she kept her tone measured, wanting to be certain Robin understood what she was actually asking for. "It's not glamorous work, sweetheart. A lot of paperwork, a lot of patient, unremarkable administrative tasks. Are you sure that's what you want to spend your summer doing, instead of enjoying time with friends?" "I'm sure," Robin said firmly. "I've been thinking about it for a while,

Married to the Cold Billionaire After Betraying Him Chapter 81: Rediscovery
The weeks following Theodore's departure brought a strange, disorienting quiet to the penthouse that took Amelia longer to adjust to than she'd anticipated, the rhythms of nearly two decades of active parenting suddenly, completely absent from her daily life. "I don't know what to do with myself in the evenings," she admitted to Damian one night, several weeks into their newly quiet household. "I keep finding myself wandering into Theodore's room, or Robin's, just to look at the empty space, remembering how full our lives used to be." "I've caught myself doing the same thing," Damian confessed, settling beside her on their bed. "Though I've also been thinking maybe this is an opportunity, not just a loss. We've spent nearly twenty years fully dedicated to raising our children. What do we actually want to do now, just for ourselves?" Amelia considered the question seriously, turning it over in her mind. "I don't entirely know," she admitted. "I've been so focused on the foundation,
Married to the Cold Billionaire After Betraying Him Chapter 80: Theodore's Turn
Two years after Robin's departure for college, Theodore found himself navigating the same whirlwind of applications and anticipation that had once defined his sister's senior year, though his path through the process carried its own distinct character, shaped by his quieter, more methodical temperament. "I've narrowed it down to three schools," he told Damian one evening, spreading brochures and printed research across the kitchen table with the same careful, systematic approach he brought to every significant decision. "MIT, Georgia Tech, and Stanford. All strong engineering programs, though each has different strengths I'm still weighing." "Walk me through your thinking," Damian said, settling across from his son, genuinely engaged in the methodical presentation Theodore had clearly prepared with considerable care. Theodore launched into a detailed comparison of research opportunities, faculty specializations, and campus culture, demonstrating the same thorough, analytical approa
Married to the Cold Billionaire After Betraying Him Chapter 79: The Quiet House
The first few weeks after Robin's departure brought an adjustment period Amelia hadn't fully anticipated, the penthouse feeling strangely, echoingly quiet despite Theodore's continued presence and the household's otherwise unchanged rhythm. "It's strange," she admitted to Damian one evening, setting the table for what felt like an unusually small dinner despite having done exactly this for years before Robin's birth. "I keep expecting to hear her arguing with Theodore about something, or hear her door slam after some minor teenage frustration. The quiet feels almost unsettling." "I know exactly what you mean," Damian said, joining her in the kitchen with the same thoughtful, reflective expression he'd worn increasingly often since Robin's send-off. "I found myself starting to ask about her day at dinner tonight, out of pure habit, before remembering she's four hundred miles away." Theodore, entering the kitchen in time to catch the tail end of their conversation, offered his own
Married to the Cold Billionaire After Betraying Him Chapter 78: Letting Go
Robin was seventeen when the acceptance letters began arriving, each one triggering a fresh wave of excited celebration throughout the household, though Amelia found herself experiencing an unexpected undercurrent of bittersweet emotion alongside the genuine joy. "I got into Northwestern," Robin announced one afternoon, practically vibrating with excitement as she burst through the front door, acceptance letter clutched triumphantly in hand. "Their nonprofit management program is exactly what I've been researching. Mom, this is actually happening." "That's wonderful, sweetheart," Amelia said, pulling her daughter into an enthusiastic embrace, genuine pride mixing with the first real acknowledgment of how quickly this moment had arrived her daughter, once a tiny, squirming newborn placed on her chest in a hospital room, now preparing to leave home for college. Damian, arriving home to find the celebration already underway, swept Robin into his own proud embrace. "I always knew you
