REBORN TO BE A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER SIXTY-THREE
ADRIAN'S POVThe hospital gown shifted slightly when Selene reached for the folder I dropped on the bedside table.Then, I saw something around her collarbone. A mark that looked like a scar but I couldn’t visualize it well before she pulled her gown to quickly cover it up.I looked away and picked up my jacket from the arm of the chair."Miss Arden," I said. "I’m sorry, but I have to go.""Thank you, Mr. Laurent, I sincerely appreciate your kind gesture," she replied.I nodded and walked out of the private ward.***The Laurent family manor was located at the end of a private road at the elite area of the city. A deliberate insularity, maintained across generations by top class men and women who understood that proximity to wealth was not the same as belonging to it and that itself was a statement.I had grown up inside that statement without questioning it.Tonight, turning through the gate felt like I was driving into a courtroom. It felt so different.Celeste was in the anti-room

ADRIAN’S POV The room fell gravely silent. I looked between Selene and Ava. At the specific quality of the exchange, the words that weren't being said inside the words that were, the brought-up of a conversation that was happening on two levels simultaneously.Ava had not moved from her position on the bed beside Selene. She was watching Leonard with the focused and patient attention of someone who had already formed a conclusion and was watching for the evidence to confirm or complicate it.Leonard pulled the chair toward the bed closer to Selene. He took her hands gently like an affectionate father."The doctor said you need rest," he said to Selene. "Whatever you want to ask me can come after that, remember your health comes first,” he touched her face sweetly. “And I don’t joke with my precious daughter.”"Can it?" Selene asked without cutting her gaze of Leonard either.Leonard looked at her for a brief moment.Then his gaze shifted to me, then at Ava, before his eyes moved bac

ADRIAN'S POV“The previous injury was the complicating factor.” The doctor had said. I was a bit confused but I didn’t pursue further, I only waited for the doctor to continue.“Based on the imaging evidence the scan had produced,” the doctor continued. “The original TBI was sustained few years back, it had healed but not completely. There were regions of the brain that remained sensitive to pressure events and the collapse had been caused by a combination of acute emotional and physiological stress triggering a pressure response. But she was fortunate, if she had hit the pavement at a different angle, it would have been more disastrous.”"Will she be okay?" I had asked the doctor again with a fear that shouldn’t have been my concern.“Yes, she will. She just has to take her medications abd rest well for a few days, if she does that, she will recuperate better.”“I understand,” I had replied.But what I understood, sitting in that office with the scan images on the screen, was that Se

AVA'S POVI had imagined this moment so many times in the last four years that I had eventually stopped imagining it. Not because I had given up but because the versions I constructed in my head kept coming like it belonged to a different kind of story but the question that emerged from all of these still lingers in mind.*What if Serena was alive?*This was the exact question that had always motivated and kept me going. Even when it looks like I’m always at dead ends.And now I couldn’t keep my eyes off this woman named Selene. In the first place, she had said a word that relates to Serena the first time I saw her at the art gallery. Then, she suddenly became interested in Serena’s case, bagging her decision with a reason I didn’t fully believe.A thought suddenly formed in my head. *What if this woman is actually my friend? What if she is Serena and had only been pretending?” I shook out the thought. No, it can’t be. If Serena is not dead, if she’s truly alive and back into thid a

SELENE'S POVMy eyes fluttered open to the beep of machines and faint smile of antiseptics.That alone was enough for me to pull that I was lying on a hospital bed.I turned my head slowly, a sharp pain on my neck restricted the movement immediately. That was when it dawned on me that I had a cervical collar on my neck.Then, the door to the ward opened quietly and Ava was right there at the door way. I wanted to scream her name and watch her rush to my side. I want to unburden myself onto her, the burdens of betrayal and pain I couldn’t hold anymore. But sadly, I couldn’t do any of these. “Miss Selene. You’re finally awake,” she said as she walked into the ward. “We were scared this may be severe, we had to call for emergency services the moment Adrian saw you lying by the corner of the building on Stead street. Thank God he didn’t come out later than he did.”My brain started recapping as she said those words.Yes. We had been on Stead street together. Myself, Ava, and Adrian. I r
REBORN TO BE A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT
SELENE’S POVThe date range covered thirty-one months. Beginning four years and seven months ago.Seven months before the accident.I read the first exchange.FITCH: The inheritance matter has become complicated. The heir has been located. She’s married into the Laurent family, I don’t think that’s by coincidence, given what we know about how things like these arrange themselves.ARDEN: I'm aware. I've been tracking the genealogical line for some time. The timing of the marriage is unfortunate.FITCH: For whom.ARDEN: For everyone potentially. Including the people currently managing the assets.I kept my face completely still.Seven months before the accident, Leonard had known. He had known I was Serena Vale, the heir whose existence threatened the assets he had been diverting for eleven years. And he had been in correspondence with Gerald Fitch, the man who would later close the accident investigation and coordinate its operational side about the complication my existence represente

Adrian’s POV“Mr. Laurent?”I looked up sharply as one of the house staff rushed into my bedroom.“It’s almost midnight, sir.”I glanced at the clock beside the bed and frowned slightly.Serena still wasn’t home.It’s been hours I’ve been trying to reach her but can’t. I assumed she went to Ava’s p

Serena’s POV“My wife did not deserve what happened to her.” Adrian’s voice filled the room quietly from the television screen. I sat frozen at the edge of the bed. The cameras flashed endlessly around him while reporters shouted questions from every direction, but Adrian barely reacted. He stood

Serena’s POV“You were not supposed to wake up this soon.”The voice came before my eyes could even fully opened. Slowly, I blinked through the haze in my head.White ceiling, soft golden lighting. This is definitely not a hospital.I tried to move and immediately regretted it. A sharp pain cut thr
