Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! [74] Behind My Back
EDWARDI walked back into the hospital corridor with steps that were still tense. The argument I’d just had with Elena in the parking lot kept replaying in my head. That woman truly had no sense of shame. Bringing her family problems to my younger brother, letting Cedric get involved, as if I weren’t enough.I exhaled harshly, about to head toward the waiting area, when a nurse stepped out of one of the rooms on the right and stopped me.“Excuse me, sir…” The nurse looked at me hesitantly. “Are you Mrs. Lilian’s son?”I frowned. “No. I’m her son-in-law.”The nurse’s expression eased slightly. “Oh, I see. I’ve been looking for her family. Mrs. Lilian just regained consciousness, sir. She’s a bit restless and keeps asking for her daughter. She said she wants to see her child.”I fell silent for a moment. I remembered leaving Elena alone in the parking lot. She was probably still crying like a fool right now.“Or perhaps you’d like to visit Mrs. Lilian in her daughter’s place?” the nurse
Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! [73] Cry for Me
CEDRICThe kiss hadn’t stopped.I tilted my head deeper, my tongue slipping inside to meet hers. Elena flinched slightly at first, but she didn’t pull away. Instead, she kissed me back, even if her movements were still a little hesitant. I growled low into her mouth, my hand tightening at the back of her neck to keep her from retreating.The air inside the car grew hotter. I could feel her uneven breath mixing with mine. Her lips were soft, slightly wet, and the taste of them was driving me further out of my mind.Slowly, I broke the kiss only to trail my mouth along her jaw. I kissed downward, following the line of her jaw to the spot beneath her ear, then lower to the pale, warm skin of her neck. Elena tilted her head to the side, giving me more access, as if her body was being more honest than her words.I pressed a kiss to her neck, then sucked gently on one spot. A soft moan immediately slipped from her lips. The sound made my blood surge hotter.“Cedric…” Her voice was hoarse, al
Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! [72] Not Tonight
CEDRICI leaned against the corridor wall, staring at the phone screen where I had just sent a message. It had been read, but there was no reply. Honestly, I hadn’t expected one right away. Still, Elena’s silence only made the tightness in my chest worse. She was probably hurting and anxious right now.I roughly rubbed my face and let out a long breath. Brian and Erika had already regained consciousness, yet for some reason my thoughts kept drifting back to Elena. My instincts told me Edward had already intimidated her, saying things that only made her more afraid.Sitting alone on the corridor bench, the smell of antiseptic and the sound of footsteps around me felt increasingly oppressive. The knowledge that Edward was still wandering around on the same floor only added to the weight in my head. I clearly needed air.I pushed myself up from the bench and walked toward the nearest exit. The moment the automatic doors opened, the night air swept across my face. I inhaled deeply, trying

ELENAI was still sitting beside my mother’s bed when the sound of familiar footsteps approached from the hallway. My chest tightened at once.Edward appeared in the doorway. His face was blank, but his eyes held the same coldness as always. He didn’t come in right away. He just stood there, watching me for a few seconds too long.“How’s your mother?” he asked briefly.“She’s more stable,” I answered quietly. “They’re moving her to a regular room soon. The staff are looking for an available one.”Edward gave a single nod. His gaze dropped briefly to my foot, now properly bandaged, but he said nothing. He didn’t even ask when the wound had finally been treated. As if the injury on my foot didn’t matter at all.I looked down, gripping the edge of Lilian’s blanket. Something in me already knew Edward was aware that Cedric had stepped in to cover her medical bills. And now a wave of guilt rose so strongly it almost made me nauseous.“Cedric paid for everything, didn’t he?” he asked sudden
Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! [70] Not Your Business
CEDRICI stood in the corner of the hallway, watching Elena’s back as she followed her mother’s gurney into the ER. My hand still felt warm where I had held her arm moments ago. I exhaled slowly and turned away. I had already agreed to her request that we stop, yet somehow the instinct to reach out whenever she was struggling refused to disappear. Especially after seeing her nearly sell her wedding ring just to cover her mother’s medical bills—I couldn’t stand it.I rubbed my face roughly and changed direction. My feet carried me toward the hospital’s administration and billing desk. The clerk looked up as I stopped in front of her.“Can I help you, sir?”“Patient under the name Lilian,” I said flatly. “I’ll be covering all of her medical expenses. Every bill—from the ER to whatever treatment comes next—put it under my name.”The clerk frowned slightly and typed something into the computer. “What’s your relationship to the patient?”I paused for a second.“Close family,” I answered at
Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! [69] I'll Take Care of It
ELENAI remained sitting on the ER gurney long after Cedric’s back disappeared at the end of the corridor.The sound of footsteps passing by, announcements from the speakers, and the squeak of patient trolleys reached my ears only faintly. Everything felt as if it were happening in a different world. The only thing I could clearly hear was Cedric’s question, still circling in my mind.So you’re more afraid of Edward getting suspicious… than of losing me?I bit my lip. My fingers were still gripping the edge of the gurney. The bandage on my foot felt damp and painful, but that pain was nothing compared to the tightness in my chest.I had already chosen. I had said we should stop. So why did I now feel as if I had just lost something important?I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. Just as I was about to lower my feet from the gurney, the phone in my pocket vibrated. The screen lit up. Lilian was calling. I stared at the name for a few seconds, then answered with a hand that was

ELENAThe next morning, the Ashford mansion felt far livelier than usual.Several maids moved back and forth through the dining room, placing dishes one after another onto the long table. The rich aroma of food filled the air, yet somehow it only made my stomach turn again.I took a slow breath bef
Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! Before Tonight
ELENAI didn’t sleep at all that night.After leaving Edward’s study, I sat motionless at the edge of the bed. It was already two in the morning, yet his words still echoed relentlessly inside my head.Divorce me… or sleep with another man to give me an heir.I squeezed my eyes shut.The cruel part
Mr. Billionaire, Your Heir Isn’t Yours! Two Lines
ELENAI wasn’t sure if I had truly woken up or if part of me was still trapped in the night I desperately wanted to forget.All I knew was that my body felt unfamiliar the moment I opened my eyes. When I turned my head, Cedric was sleeping soundly beside me. For a few seconds, I could only stare at

ELENAIt was already six in the evening when I finally returned from the hospital.The moment I stepped into the bedroom, the first thing I saw was that dress. I picked it up slowly. The fabric was thin and light, revealing far more skin than I was ever comfortable showing.Edward hadn’t only given
