One Night Stand with the Secret Billionaire Chapter 159
The evening sun dipped low over the California coast, painting the sky in warm, gentle colors as the day began to fade. Inside the penthouse, the air was still and calm. Selene had finally finished the last of the papers for the Jameson partnership and was resting on the sofa, watching the waves through the large glass windows. Lucas, however, was still in his office. He had the door closed, and the only light in the room came from his computer screen.He clicked on the secret file his investigation team had just sent. He felt a deep, protective love for Selene; he was doing this to protect her heart and her future, making sure she would always be safe from those who meant her harm.The file opened to show old documents from thirty years ago. They were from a small, quiet town where Serah had grown up. The first page was an old school record, but it wasn't the grades that caught Lucas's eye. It was a formal letter from the school leaders.As Lucas read, his face became very serious. T

The days after the big opening were very busy but happy at the Yates home. While everyone in California was still talking about how successful the Blue Core building was, inside the penthouse, things were quiet and peaceful.Lucas spent Monday morning in his home office, but he wasn’t alone. Selene sat right next to him at the big desk. Together, they were finishing the papers for the "Kimberlite Experience." This was the new project Larry Jameson wanted to be part of, and Lucas wanted every detail to be perfect."I think we should explain more about the history of the gems for the Jameson family," Selene said softly, pointing at the computer screen. She looked very professional, but the happy look in her eyes showed she really loved working by his side. "It’s not just about making money, it’s about the story of the earth. That’s what Larry liked the most when we spoke."Lucas nodded and kept typing. "You’re right. He wants a project that has a real heart, not just a business deal." H

The music from the grand hall was still a quiet, distant sound, but the air in the private security area of the Blue Core building felt very different. Here, the rooms were cold and the walls were made of plain gray concrete. It was a sharp change from the warm, golden light of the party upstairs.James, the head of security, was waiting outside a small room without any windows. He stood very straight with his hands behind his back. When Lucas arrived, walking with his usual calm and strong energy, James stepped forward to speak with him."Mr. Yates," James said in a quiet voice. "We have the man who tried to break the power system. We have him in the holding room for questioning. I think you should see him yourself.""Do we know his name yet, James?" Lucas asked. His eyes were sharp, and even though he was wearing a very expensive wine-colored suit, he looked like a man who knew how to handle a difficult situation."His name is Bruno," James explained as they walked toward a heavy me

Suddenly, four men from Lucas’s elite security team appeared. They were so fast it was amazing. Before Bruno could grab a tool, they had him pinned against the wall with his hands behind his back."You're in trouble, man," one guard said as he put the handcuffs on him.Steve saw everything from the van. He was suddenly very afraid. He didn't even try to help his partner. He put the van in reverse and drove away as fast as he could. By the time the guards looked for the van, Steve had disappeared into the California streets, leaving no trace behind.James spoke into his earpiece. "An intruder was spotted but the problem is gone, Mr. Yates. We have one man, and the other got away. Everything is safe."Standing off-stage, Lucas felt so relieved, but he kept his face calm. He nodded toward the stage. The plan to break the lights had failed. The show would go on.The event was beautiful and moved like clockwork. When Selene stepped onto the stage, the whole room went quiet. Her gold dress

The sun rose over California with a warm, clear light. It cast a beautiful glow over the hills where the new Blue Core building stood. This was the most important day for the Yates family. For weeks, the air had been filled with the sounds of building and the quiet, busy talk of big plans. Now, the glass and steel building was finished. It was a dream come true for Selene and a new start for the whole gemstone business.Inside the penthouse, the morning was quiet but full of a sweet, nervous energy. Selene stood in front of a large mirror, her fingers shaking just a little as she fixed the straps of her gold dress. The fabric was beautiful, glowing every time she moved. When she stepped into her black high heels, she felt a sudden rush of strength. The gold heels made a sharp, clean sound on the floor. It was the sound of a woman who was ready to lead and no longer afraid to be seen.Even though she felt strong, she was still worried. She looked at herself in the mirror and bit her li

The air in the dark bar by the docks was thick and smelled of old grease and stagnant water. Serah sat in a corner booth, her heart beating fast against her ribs. She felt completely out of place in her clean coat, surrounded by men who looked rough and dangerous. Every loud laugh or clinking glass made her want to run away, but her anger toward Selene was so strong that it kept her in her seat. She kept thinking about how Selene had ignored her calls and how her daughter, Anna, was being left behind. That bitterness was the only thing that gave her courage.Across from her sat Bruno, a large man with cold eyes and a long scar on his face. Beside him, leaning in the shadows, was Steve Sterling. Steve was the dark side of the Sterling family, and he watched Serah with a sharp, calculating look. When Serah explained that she wanted to ruin the lights and the power during Selene’s big event, Bruno didn't hesitate. He took the job with a cruel smile.Bruno knew exactly who Serah was and h

The sterile smell of the hospital bleach, latex, and cold air... was starting to make Selene’s head spin. She sat by Lucas’s bed, watching the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest. He had drifted back into a deep, healing sleep after their brief conversation. For the first time in forty-eight hou

The darkness that swallowed the penthouse wasn't just the absence of light; it was a heavy, suffocating weight. In the sleek, modern world of the Yates residence, where floor-to-ceiling glass usually invited the golden glow of the Los Angeles skyline, the sudden blackout felt like being abandoned

The silence following the doctor’s question felt like it lasted a century. Selene’s hand was still gripping her phone, the line to Lucas’s father still open, but she couldn't breathe. She searched the doctor’s eyes for any sign of hope, her mind screaming for a miracle."The surgery was complicated

The silence inside the panic room was worse than the sound of the guns. Selene stood frozen, her eyes glued—static on the monitor where, just a second ago, she had seen a rifle pointed at the back of Lucas’s head. Her breath came in short, panicked gasps that made her chest hurt. The air in the c
