Mr Kingston, It's Too Late Chapter 74: The Negative Test
The VIP waiting room at the private clinic did not look like a hospital. It looked like a luxury hotel lobby. There were soft leather chairs, quiet piano music, and a tray of expensive sparkling water.Raphael was not sitting. He was pacing.He walked from the huge glass window to the door, then turned around and walked back. He checked his heavy silver watch for the fourth time in two minutes."Raphael, please," Claire said gently. She was sitting on the edge of a leather sofa. "You are making me dizzy. Sit down.""It has been twenty minutes," Raphael said, stopping his pacing. He frowned at the closed white door. "A blood test does not take twenty minutes. I am going to buy this hospital and fire the lab technicians.""You cannot buy a hospital just because you are impatient," Claire laughed softly. She reached out and grabbed his hand. "Sit with me."Raphael sighed. He walked over and sat down right next to her. He pulled her close, resting his hand protectively over her stomach."

Claire stared at the corner of her desk. She blinked twice.A thick layer of gray foam was taped securely to the sharp wooden edge.She looked around the studio. Every single sharp corner in the entire room was covered in foam. The edge of the cutting table had foam. The windowsill had foam. Even the doorknob was wrapped in something soft.Raphael was standing by the window. He was holding a roll of heavy tape. He wore a crisp white shirt and a dark tie. He looked like a ruthless CEO, but he was currently taping a sponge to a bookshelf."Raphael," Claire said slowly. "What are you doing?""I am babyproofing," Raphael replied. His voice was completely serious."I am four weeks pregnant," Claire pointed out. "The baby is the size of a seed. It is not going to hit its head on the desk anytime soon.""You could hit your head on the desk," Raphael countered. He ripped a piece of tape and secured another piece of foam. "Your center of gravity is going to shift. You could trip. I am eliminat
Mr Kingston, It's Too Late Chapter 72: The Five Bedrooms
Two perfect months had passed since they moved into the new house.The afternoon sun hit the large floor to ceiling windows of Claire's design studio. She sat at her wooden drafting table. She was staring at a fresh sketch for a winter coat line. But her eyes kept crossing.She was incredibly tired.Claire let out a heavy breath. She dropped her pencil on the desk. It rolled and stopped against a spool of red thread.She wasn't sick. Her stomach was perfectly fine. She actually had a huge appetite today. But she felt a deep, heavy exhaustion that settled right into her bones. Her eyes felt heavy. And her chest felt uncomfortably sore against the lace of her bra.She reached over to the corner of her desk. She grabbed her current favorite snack. It was a bowl of salted pretzels and a small jar of strawberry jam.She dipped a pretzel into the sweet jam and ate it happily. The salty and sweet mix was absolutely perfect.Maya had looked at her like she was completely crazy during their vi
Mr Kingston, It's Too Late Chapter 71: The House with No Guest Room
The black Maybach slowed down, turning off the loud, busy city streets and onto a quiet, tree-lined road.Claire looked out the window. The towering glass skyscrapers slowly faded away, replaced by large, beautiful properties hidden behind tall stone walls and old oak trees.The car finally rolled to a stop in front of a pair of massive iron gates. They opened automatically, and the car pulled into a long, circular driveway.Claire pressed her hands against the cool glass of the window. Her eyes went wide.It was a house. A real, actual house.It wasn't a cold, glass penthouse hovering a hundred floors above the world. It was a beautiful, modern estate made of warm stone and rich wood. It had a massive front porch, huge windows that let in the sunlight, and a sprawling green lawn."Raphael," Claire breathed out, completely stunned. "It is huge.""It is a family home," Raphael said softly from beside her.The driver parked the car. Raphael didn't wait for him to open the door. He stepp
Mr Kingston, It's Too Late Chapter 70: A Fresh Start
The heavy mahogany doors of the CEO office clicked shut.Raphael let go of Claire's hand. He walked over to the massive glass window. He just stood there, looking out at the city. The rain was still pouring down, hitting the glass in thick drops.Claire did not say anything at first. She watched his shoulders. The rigid, terrifying posture he carried in the boardroom was completely gone. He looked exhausted."It is really over," Claire said softly.She walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. She rested her cheek against his broad back.Raphael let out a long, heavy breath. He covered her hands with his own."It is over," Raphael agreed quietly.He turned around in her arms. He looked down at her face. His dark eyes were filled with a complicated mix of relief and sorrow. He had just won a massive war, but he had also lost his mother permanently."Are you okay?" Claire asked. She reached up and gently touched his cheek."I am fine," Raphael leaned into her touch. "I
Mr Kingston, It's Too Late Chapter 69: The Fake King
The Kingston Corporation boardroom was packed.It was exactly eight o'clock in the morning. The sky outside was gray and pouring rain, matching the heavy, suffocating tension inside the room.Vivian Kingston stood at the head of the long glass table. She wore a sharp black dress. She looked incredibly tragic, playing the role of the heartbroken mother perfectly.Daniel Hayes stood right next to her. He wore a dark, expensive suit. He looked humble, keeping his hands clasped in front of him.Mr. Davis and the rest of the board members sat around the table. They all looked exhausted and nervous."I know this is a shock to all of you," Vivian said softly, wiping a fake tear from her eye. "But my late husband kept this secret for a reason. He wanted to protect us. But now, seeing how Raphael has run this company into the ground, I cannot hide the truth anymore."Daniel stepped forward. He looked directly at Mr. Davis."I do not want a war," Daniel said smoothly. His voice was dripping wit

"Give those back to me, Sophia," Claire said, her voice shaking with a mix of fear and anger. She took a step toward the armchair.Sophia didn't flinch. She elegantly tapped the thick stack of papers against her knee, her expression cold and completely unbothered."I don't think I will," Sophia rep

"A nursery." Claire muttered, her head still resting between her knees on the cold hospital floor. "He wants to build a nursery."The doctor crouched down beside her, his expression sympathetic but firm. "Mrs. Kingston. Brain trauma is highly unpredictable. Right now, his mind has built a protectiv

"Am I hallucinating, or did the actual CEO of Ellis Designs just walk through the front doors?"Claire barely had time to take off her sunglasses before her secretary, Maya, was practically hovering around her. Maya was holding a stack of folders, but her jaw was practically on the floor."Close yo
Mr Kingston, It's Too Late Chapter 1: The End of Us
The grandfather clock in the hallway chimed 2:00 AM. Claire sat on the velvet living room sofa, staring at the muted television. The penthouse was massive, perfectly decorated, and entirely too quiet. Look, but don’t touch. Live in it, but definitely don't make a sound. Outside, the rain began t
