My Billionaire Husband is Addicted to Me 90
[Carter’s pov]Morning light cut through the windshield in sharp, pale streaks as I drove. Candice sat beside me, unusually quiet.She usually filled the car with endless questions, curious, relentless but today she just stared out the window, her small fingers tracing invisible patterns on the glass.Children notice things.Even when they don’t understand them.“You’re quiet,” I said, glancing at her briefly before returning my eyes to the road.She shrugged. “You’re quiet too, dad.”I huffed out a faint breath that might have been a laugh. “It’s just a checkup, kiddo.” I added, keeping my tone steady. “Nothing to worry about.”She turned to look at me then, her expression thoughtful in a way that didn’t belong on a child’s face. “Are you coming with me?”There it was. The part I couldn’t avoid. “I’ll be there,” I said carefully. “Just… not in the room.”Her brows pulled together slightly, but she nodded. “Okay. Will aunty Olivia be there too?”Silence settled again. “Yes, kiddo. Sh

[Olivia’s pov]The hospital always smelled the same in the morning.Sterile. Controlled. Predictable.Usually, that comforted me.Today, it didn’t.My steps slowed as I walked down the corridor toward my cabin. My fingers tightened slightly around the file I was carrying. I wasn’t thinking about the surgery scheduled in an hour. I wasn’t thinking about the DNA test Carter had agreed to.I was thinking about Ronan too. I knew him well enough to expect anger.Not loud. Not explosive.Worse.Quiet. Controlled. Cutting.He had seen everything last night, the confession, the way I had taken Carter’s hand, the way I had chosen publicly.And Ronan wasn’t a man who accepted things easily when they slipped out of his control.I exhaled slowly as I reached my cabin. Part of me almost expected him to be inside already, leaning against my desk, arms crossed, that unreadable look in his eyes.My hand rested on the handle for a second longer than necessary. Then I pushed it open, the room was empt

[Olivia’s pov]The house felt too quiet when I stepped inside.The faint scent of antiseptic lingered in the air, familiar and oddly comforting, blending with the soft hum of the lights. It was late enough that the world outside had gone quiet too, and for the first time since the gala, I could actually hear my own thoughts.That wasn’t a good thing.I slipped off my heels near the entrance, my fingers brushing absently against the console table as I steadied myself. Everything from tonight replayed in fragments—Carter’s voice, the look in his eyes, the way he had said my name like it mattered.My chest tightened.I had said it, finally. There was no taking it back now.“Olivia?”I barely had time to turn before I was pulled into a hug.“Whoa—”“Homer,” I laughed softly, surprised as his arms wrapped tightly around me.Homer smelled faintly of coffee and disinfectant, his embrace warm, grounding. So different from the chaos I had just walked out of.“I knew it,” he said against my ha

[Carter’s pov]Olivia didn’t say anything else after that.She just stepped closer.For a second, I thought she was going to change her mind. Stay, argue, push me again until one of us breaks. But she didn’t.She rose slightly on her toes, her hand brushing my arm not holding, not claiming, just there and pressed a soft kiss to my cheek.It wasn’t dramatic.It wasn’t desperate.It was quiet.And somehow, that made it worse.“I’ll see you tomorrow,” she said. Then she turned and walked away. Just like that. No looking back. No hesitation.Gone.I stood there longer than I should have, my hand lifting unconsciously to where her lips had touched my skin. The warmth lingered, faint but persistent, like a reminder I couldn’t shake.Something wasn’t right.Not with her.Not with anything she had said. It wasn’t a suggestion. It wasn’t even a request. It was… a setup. Or a warning. Or both.I pulled my phone out, already dialing before I could overthink it. She picked up on the second ring.

[Olivia’s pov]“Come with me,” Carter said, his hand closing around mine again the second we cleared the thickest part of the crowd.His grip wasn’t forceful. But it wasn’t loose either. It carried urgency. Expectation maybe.Like he thought if he let go, I might disappear.I looked at our joined hands, then up at him. His expression hadn’t settled yet. “I can’t,” I said quietly.The words landed between us, heavier than they should have.His grip tightened. “What do you mean you can’t?”I exhaled slowly, trying to steady the storm still moving through me. “Not like this, Carter.” I said.His brows pulled together. “Olivia—” He paused, hesitating. “I tried to fix our marriage and now did everything I could to give you the rightful title.”“No, Carter.” I shook my head, cutting him off before he could pull me back into that emotional gravity I was already struggling to resist. “You don’t get to say all of that and then expect everything to just fall into place.”His jaw clenched. “I’m

[Olivia’s pov]I didn’t realize I was crying until the tears blurred the edges of him.Carter’s voice was steady and painfully honest. It kept echoing in my ears even after he stopped speaking. The room had gone quiet, the kind of quiet that presses into your chest and makes it hard to breathe, but all I could hear was him.My fingers trembled in his as I stood there on the stage, exposed under a hundred watching eyes, my heart cracking open in ways I didn’t know how to control.He had lied.For years.Hidden something so big, so devastating, that it should have shattered everything between us beyond repair.And yet now….He had just told the truth.In front of everyone.He cleared out the misunderstanding about his wife. But somewhere deep down it still didn’t satiate me.My throat tightened painfully as I looked down at him, still on one knee, still holding onto me like I was the only thing anchoring him to the ground.I didn’t know what I was feeling.Anger burned, sharp and justi

[Olivia’s pov]The room felt like it had stopped breathing.Just like I did silently.Camilla stood in front of me, the wine bottle raised in her hand. I glanced at her once again, pleading with my eyes that she stops. Meanwhile, Camilla had made it clear with her threat that she held so many grud

[Carter’s pov]Then there was silence. I could not speak anything. My mind struggled to catch up.“That’s not—” I shook my head instinctively. “That doesn’t make sense. How could Candice even do something so gruesome like this?” I denied. Not that I was worried that perhaps Olivia was lying to m

[Carter’s pov]My phone rang just as I was about to take a turn toward the school. I didn’t hear it at first among my worry and scattered mind. The phone rang once again and when the car stopped at the red traffic light I snapped out of it.Olivia.Her name flashed across the screen. For a second,

[Carter’s pov]The restaurant door closed behind Olivia with a dull thud. But the sound echoed inside my head like a gunshot. I felt it as if my heart had stopped pounding. My soul died at that moment.For several seconds, I didn’t move.I even forgot to breathe. Didn’t even blink.My eyes remaine
