My Billionaire Boss's Secret Heir Chapter One Hundred Ten: Home
Sophia's POVRobert held Amara like she might shatter in his arms, his hands trembling slightly, his eyes never leaving her small, sleeping face."She's so light," he said quietly. "I'd forgotten how light they are at this age. Ethan was born early too, did you know that? Not quite this early, but early enough that I remember exactly this feeling. That particular terror of holding something so small and so entirely dependent on you.""I didn't know that," I said softly, watching something unfamiliar and unguarded settle over his face."I wasn't a good father to him, in the ways that mattered most," Robert continued, still watching Amara sleep. "I let your mother's death—" He stopped, correcting himself. "I let Ethan's mother's death close something in me that I never properly opened again. I'm not asking for forgiveness. I don't think I've earned that yet. I'm just asking for the chance to be better this time, for them, than I managed to be for him."Ethan, standing quietly beside the
My Billionaire Boss's Secret Heir Chapter One Hundred Nine: Both of Them
Sophia's POVThe silence stretched only a few seconds, though it felt like an eternity carved out of time itself, every part of me frozen with a fear so complete I couldn't even form words.Then, thin and startled, a cry finally broke through the quiet, small and fierce, and the entire room seemed to exhale at once."There she is," Dr. Mathew said, relief evident in his voice as he worked quickly, efficiently. "She just needed a moment to clear her airway properly. Both lungs sound strong.""She's okay?" Ethan's voice was still tight with residual fear, his hand crushing mine."She's okay," Dr. Mathew confirmed, and a moment later our second daughter was placed briefly against my chest, tiny and warm and unbelievably real, her cry settling into something softer now that she'd found her way into the world.I stared down at her, tears streaming freely now, unable to fully process the overwhelming rush of relief and love crashing through me all at once."Both of them," I whispered. "Etha
My Billionaire Boss's Secret Heir Chapter One Hundred Eight: This Is Real
Sophia's POVEthan was on his feet before I'd even finished the sentence."Are you sure? Not the stress kind, the actual kind?"Another wave of pain rolled through me, sharper than the last, and I gripped the edge of the couch cushion hard enough that my knuckles went white."I'm sure.""Okay." He was already moving, grabbing the hospital bag we'd packed and repacked three times over the past week, his voice tight but controlled, the same focused calm I recognized from every crisis he'd navigated since I'd met him. "Okay. We're going. Can you walk, or do you need me to carry you?""I can walk, Ethan, I'm in labor, not dying.""Right. Sorry." He helped me up anyway, one arm wrapped firmly around my waist, guiding me carefully toward the door while calling out instructions to Della, who appeared instantly from the kitchen, already reaching for her own phone to alert the driver.The drive to the hospital felt both endless and impossibly fast, each contraction arriving closer together tha
My Billionaire Boss's Secret Heir Chapter One Hundred Seven: You're Welcome, Sophia
Sophia's POVI stared at the message for a long moment before finally typing back a single word.Who is this?The reply came almost instantly, as though whoever it was had been waiting for exactly that question.*Diane Castellano. I know I have no right to expect trust from either of you, but I wanted you to have the full picture before this all gets buried in legal proceedings and settlement paperwork. Damian's involvement in the gala leak never made it into my formal statement. I didn't think it was my place to expose him when I was already cooperating on everything else. But watching you both deal with the fallout of trusting the wrong people, I couldn't stay quiet about one more piece of it.*"Diane," Ethan said, reading over my shoulder, disbelief coloring his voice. "Why would she reach out like this? Anonymously, no less, when she's already cooperating openly with the DA."I typed back quickly. Why anonymous, if you're already testifying against Penelope?*Because this particul
My Billionaire Boss's Secret Heir Chapter One Hundred Six: That Night at the Gala
Sophia's POVI showed Ethan the email before I'd even finished reading it twice."Everything you think you know about that night at the gala is wrong," he read aloud, his brow furrowing. "That's oddly specific. Which night? There've been so many at this point.""The proposal night," I said. "It has to be. That's the only gala either of us would remember clearly enough for someone to reference it like this."Ethan studied the email address, a string of random characters that told us nothing. "No name. No context. Just enough to make sure we can't ignore it.""Do you think it's connected to Penelope? Diane? Another play before everything fully collapses on them?""I don't know." He set the phone down, exhaustion and wariness tangling together in his expression. "I told you I wanted to step back from all of this. I meant that. But I can't just ignore something aimed directly at us.""We could forward it to your security team. Let them handle it instead of engaging directly.""We could."
My Billionaire Boss's Secret Heir Chapter One Hundred Five: Baby B
Sophia's POVDr. Mathew arrived within minutes, his expression calm but focused as he studied the monitor readout the nurse handed him, comparing it against the steady strip still printing beside the bed."Show me exactly where you saw the irregularity," he said, and the nurse pointed to a small section of the printout, a brief dip and spike in the rhythm that meant nothing to me but clearly registered as something worth investigating to the two of them."That's Baby B," Dr. Mathew said after a moment, his tone even, professional. "The pattern's consistent with fetal movement, actually, not distress. Twins in the later stages sometimes shift position quickly enough to briefly compress the umbilical cord, which can cause a short dip like this on the monitor. It resolved on its own within seconds, which is reassuring.""So she's okay," Ethan said, his voice tight with barely restrained fear. "The baby's okay.""Both babies look healthy on the current strip," Dr. Mathew confirmed, adjust
