Caroline’s

Point of View

Liam

crashes through the front door first. His little feet slap against the floor as

he kicks his shoes off thrilled. "Mom! We're home!"

I look

up from the stove. Garlic and butter smells float in the air. The kitchen feels

warm compared to the cold outside, but it's nothing like the warmth that starts

to spread in my chest when I see my son. His messy hair, his pink cheeks from

the cold, his bright eyes that always seem to be full of joy. It makes me stop,

and I grip the wooden spoon I've been stirring with tighter.

He

looks happy. Really happy.

Adrian

enters right after him, his presence filling the room, like he's always been a

part of this place.

I gulp.

For a

second, I let myself think—the impossible dream that pops up before I can push

it away. The view of them together like this coming into the house bringing the

chilly air, their laughter mixing with the home I've created. It's risky to

think this way.

To

picture a future that can't be real.

A

family.

  • Secret Billionaire Divorcee   Chapter 220

    Caroline’s Point of ViewThe lights are bright.Brighter than I expected.The small auditorium is packed, and the subtle buzz of chatter and shuffling heels fills the room as people settle into their seats. My name flashes across the screen behind me: Caroline Hill, Founder of Aline Jewerly.I take a deep breath behind the curtain.It’s not fear I feel. Not exactly. It’s weight.The weight of the journey it took to get here.The years I swallowed my voice. The months I spent trying to rebuild something from the ashes of everything that was taken from me. The nights I lay awake wondering if I was being stupid to keep going.Now I’m here. In my homeland. In front of people who have followed my story—from whispers and headlines to quiet respect. And I’m not just here as someone’s

    Penelope’s Point of ViewI’m staring at my untouched cup of tea.The warmth has faded, just like my ability to pretend that everything is fine.Across from me, Caroline leans against the display counter, arms crossed gently over her chest. The jewelry shop is quiet this afternoon—just the soft hum of the ceiling fan and the faint clink of metal as she sorts a few tiny charms on a tray.She glances at me, then at the cold tea I haven’t touched.“You okay?” she asks finally, not pushing, but not pretending she doesn’t notice.I hesitate, then shake my head. “I don’t know.”She walks over and pulls out the stool beside mine, sitting down like she’s settling in for something real.“I’ve been thinking about Lorenzo,” I say quietly, my finge

    Caroline’s Point of ViewThe door closes behind us with a soft click.Adrian sets his keys on the counter and gives me a tired smile. “Home sweet home.”I don’t smile back. I just stare at the blood staining the sleeve of his shirt.He notices. “It’s not as bad as it looks.”I cross my arms tightly. “You said that the last time.”He shrugs. “And I was right then, too.”My jaw tightens. “Let me see it.”He sighs but doesn’t argue. He walks toward the bathroom and I follow, watching every step he takes. His limp is faint but there. My chest aches.Inside, he peels off his shirt slowly. I catch my breath.The burn on his arm is deeper than he made it sound. The bruise blooming across his ribs is c

    Knoxx’s Point of ViewThe smoke clings to everything—my jacket, my throat, the inside of my damn lungs.The second we’re out, the air feels thin, too light to hold the weight pressing against my ribs. Fire crews are yelling. Someone pulls Adrian aside to check him for burns, but he pushes past them, scanning the area like a madman.And then I hear her.“Adrian!”Her voice cuts through everything.Caroline.She runs toward him, eyes wide, hands trembling. She doesn’t even look at me.It’s like I’m not here.“Caroline,” Adrian breathes, and then she’s in his arms.She grabs the front of his soot-covered shirt and buries her face against his chest. No hesitation. No second thought. Just straight to him.&nbs

  • Secret Billionaire Divorcee   Chapter 216

    Adrian’s Point of ViewThe exhibition hall is buzzing with energy. Booths are lit up in every direction, showcasing jewelry, designs, tools. Voices blend in a symphony of small talk, sales pitches, and the occasional excited laughter when someone finds something they love.But I’m not here for any of that.I’m here for her.And for Liam.“Excuse me,” I ask a staffer near the entrance, “is the Hill & Bloom booth in this wing?”She checks the tablet in her hands and nods. “Yes, sir. Local vendors are in Row C, right-hand side. They’re at the end.”“Thanks.”My heart thuds as I walk, eyes scanning. I know I shouldn’t feel this nervous, but I do. I haven’t seen her since that night she fell asleep on my shoulder. Since she hugged me li

  • Secret Billionaire Divorcee   Chapter 215

    Knoxx’s Point of ViewThe whiskey burns going down, but I don’t flinch.I don’t even blink.I pour another glass. Let it fill to the rim before I bring it to my lips.The house is quiet. Too quiet. Elle’s at her aunt’s place tonight. I told her I had meetings. Told myself I needed time to think.But all I’ve done is sit here. Alone. Drinking. Thinking.And staring at the same damn photo on my phone.Liam.He’s laughing in it. A wide, full smile, his teeth showing. His eyes crinkled at the corners.He’s not even looking at the camera—he’s looking at Caroline. She’s off to the side, probably making him laugh with one of her stupid jokes. He looks happy. Whole.I lean forward, resting my elbows on my knees, the glass still in my hand.He should’ve been laughing with me.I should’
