BETTY

“You shouldn’t be back here.” The words come out sharper than I intend as my eyes keep moving, scanning shelves, corners, shadows, and counting cases.

The remaining bottles gleam back at me under the harsh storage lights, mocking me with their neat alignment.

“So this is how you want to play it, huh?”

I turn slowly, already stretched thin, already past the edge of polite.

“I don’t know what you’re implying,” My brows draw together, exhaustion bleeding into irritation, “but you need to lea

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 138

    NATHANIELThe estate is finally quiet. The kids finally burned themselves out from all the screaming and running, and one by one, their parents gathered them up and took them home.Grace didn’t last much longer either. She passed out as soon as all the kids left, and I watched from a distance as Betty carried her upstairs to her room before she left with him.She didn’t spare me a single glance, even though they walked right past me. Couldn’t say it didn’t sting.Now I am in the study, sleeves rolled up, a drink in hand, the events of the day replaying in slow, deliberate loops as I stare at the laptop resting on the desk in front of me.I let the silence stretch before placing the glass down at the small bar beside me and stepping forward.I pull the chair back and sink into it, the leather creaking softly under my weight as I open the laptop.The screen lights up instantly, too bright against the dim room, forcing my eyes to adjust as I navigate to one of my personal email accounts,

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 137

    BETTYHis presence fills the space entirely, and I grip the edge of the counter behind me, grounding myself, forcing my body to stay where it is instead of reacting blindly to his suddenness.Our chests nearly touch. Close enough that I can feel his heartbeat. Which is beating Fast. Faster than mine.“Like I’ve stated,” he growls, his voice controlled but strained. “I didn’t have anything to do with what is happening outside.”His head dips slightly, his focus narrowing, and every instinct tells me to push him away, to create distance, and end whatever this is before it becomes something I cannot control, but I don’t move.I can’t.My neck tilts up instead, my eyes locking onto his as something shifts in the space between us, something sharp and unfamiliar, something that has nothing to do with anger anymore.I feel my heart stumble, then match his, before a cold sensation runs down my spine, grounding and unsettling at the same time.This isn’t the tension from before. The one we had

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 136

    BETTYI am so angry I can barely see straight.The entire party has unraveled in a matter of minutes, shifting from something carefully planned into something I no longer recognize.And the worst part, is that I can feel it slipping out of my control, no matter how hard I try to hold it together.Kids are now everywhere, high on sugar and adrenaline, their laughter louder, sharper, almost hysterical as they run from one end of the compound to the other, chasing each other with melting ice cream dripping down their hands.Water splashes from the artificial pools as a few of them ignore every rule that had been set, their shrieks of excitement rising above everything else as they slip, fall, get back up, and do it all over again.Some moms are running after their children, voices strained as they try to force sweaters over squirming bodies, their concern barely cutting through the noise.The rest don’t even notice.They are gathered at the bar, drinks in hand, their laughter spilling fr

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 135

    NATHANIELSilence stretches between us, not uncomfortable, but heavy enough to settle into the space and sit there like something waiting to be acknowledged.Children scream somewhere behind me, the sound high and wild with excitement as water splashes from one of the shallow pools, droplets catching the light before disappearing into the sand.The parents burst into laughter around the bar, glasses clinking as someone says something just inappropriate enough to make the others lean in closer.At some point, I even think they are laughing at me because of how miserable and pathetic I must look. And right in the middle of that thought, I feel a hand brush over mine, light and careful.Harriette’s fingers settle over my clenched fist like they know exactly how much pressure to apply without forcing anything open.I don’t move. I let it sit there. Let the warmth of it settle just enough to remind me that I am not entirely alone in this space, even if it feels like I am exposed as a tee

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 134

    NATHANIELI cannot remember the last time the estate felt this alive.Every corner holds a different kind of noise, a different kind of movement, and a different kind of joy that does not ask for permission before it takes over the space.And yet, I can. Last year, a day just like this. Grace’s birthday. But the difference now is not the scale. It’s the fact that this time, none of it has anything to do with me. Betty made sure of that.She said she didn’t need help when I offered more than once to step in and handle whatever might overwhelm her, to take some of it off her shoulders.I even went down to the guest house, thinking maybe I could catch her at the right moment, and say something that would convince her I really wanted to be part of this, but it didn’t go as I thought it would. She opened the door, looked at me, and closed it before I could even get a hi past my lips.It stung. More than I’d like to admit. And to make it worse, halfway back to the house, I saw Rhys’s car

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 133

    BETTYAs promised, ten minutes later, I see Rhys shaking hands with the men before making his way toward me.I am seated at the bar counter, halfway through an iced coffee I haven’t really been drinking, my fingers wrapped loosely around the glass as I watch him approach.He stops just behind me, close enough for me to feel his presence before he even speaks, one hand sliding into his pocket.“We can take that walk now,” he says.I push the glass aside, slide off the barstool without finishing it and lead the way out of the club.The shift from dim lighting to open air is immediate as we step onto the street, the late afternoon stretching into early evening.We start walking side by side. Not too close, not too far. And for the first ten minutes, all I could hear was just the sound of our footsteps and the quiet movements of the city around us.I tilt my head slightly toward him, the silence becoming awkward. “How are you?”“Good,” he replies immediately. “You?”“I’m good too.”Anothe

    BETTYWe step out of the car into the cool night air to stretch our legs, both of us needing a moment to recover after that ridiculous make-out session.The sky above us is clear, scattered with stars, and for the first time all evening, the world feels quiet.I stretch myself along the hood of Rhy

    BETTY“There’s a lot you still don’t know about me, Betty, now go upstairs before you jinx it.”I fold my lips together, pretending to be unimpressed even though the gesture has already softened something inside me.“Fiiine,” I draw out the word dramatically before turning toward the staircase.Ups

    NATHANIELThe phone buzzes in my pocket just as I reach the front doors of the mansion.I hesitate, my hand lingering on the handle while the vibration continues against my thigh, steady and insistent.I consider ignoring it entirely because the last thing I want right now is a conversation I don’t
