Nancy’s POV

By the time I finally left the morgue, my hands felt numb, and it wasn’t just my hands. It was my mind, my body, my soul. Like they didn’t belong to me anymore. I had signed my name so many times that it stopped looking real. Each signature felt like a small betrayal, like I was agreeing to the fact that Adrian was gone forever.

All I could think of was that I would never forgive myself. We had fought that night and now he was gone. That last memory I had of my brother was of him tr

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S LOST FAMILY   CHAPTER 64 : THIS IS WHAT PEACE FEELS LIKE

    Nancy’s POVIt was the kind of morning that made you forget, briefly, that your life had ever been anything but this.The kind of morning where the world outside was still mostly quiet and the birds hadn't fully committed to their noise yet and everything felt suspended in something gentle that you didn't want to disturb by moving too quickly.I lay still for a long moment with my eyes open and staring at the ceiling above me with Colton's arm warm and heavy across my waist.Colton was still asleep.I knew because his breathing was deep and even and his hand had gone slack against my side in that completely unguarded way it only did when he was fully, genuinely out. He slept like a man with a clean conscience, one arm always finding me even in sleep as if some part of him needed the confirmation that I was still there.It made me feel special.I turned my head just enough to look at him.His hair was a mess. It was always a mess in the morning, all that careful effortless blonde dishe

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S LOST FAMILY   CHAPTER 63 : GET RID OF HIM

    Catherine’s POVThe visitor came at past eleven.He didn’t come through the front door of the estate nor at the main entrance where my staff would intercept him and send whoever it was away. It came at the side entrance, the one only a handful of people knew existed, which meant whoever was on the other side had been watching this house long enough to know where I came and went unaccompanied.That alone made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up before I even opened the door.I had been in my private sitting room, nursing a glass of red wine and going over projections for the American expansion with half my attention and spending the other half thinking about what to do about Colton. My brother's silence had become its own kind of threat lately. He knew too much and cared too little about protecting his family, which made him unpredictable, and dangerous.I set my glass down when I saw a man I never wanted to see again through the security cameras, knocking aimlessly at the side e

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S LOST FAMILY   CHAPTER 62 : I WALKED OUT

    Nancy’s POVI didn't call ahead. Today was one of the days I was supposed to visit Liam anyways so I had every right to be there.I didn't rehearse what I was going to say in the mirror or plan my words carefully or let Colton talk me into waiting until the lawyer had looked over everything first. I woke up the next morning, stared at the ceiling for exactly four minutes, and then I got dressed, picked up my car keys, and drove to Andrew King's estate before my brain could catch up with my body.Colton had tried to come with me. I'd told him no. This wasn't something I needed backup for. This was something I needed to do alone, face to face, without a single buffer between us. I needed to look Andrew King in the eyes and ask him why he was doing all this. I needed him to say it to my face.The gates of the estate were exactly as I remembered them. Grand and iron and cold. I pressed the intercom button and didn't even wait for the full greeting before I spoke."It's Nancy Jacobs. I’m h

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S LOST FAMILY   CHAPTER 61: NOTHING LESS

    Nancy’s POVThe header alone made my stomach drop.IN THE MATTER OF: LIAM JACOBS-KING — PETITION FOR SOLE LEGAL AND PHYSICAL CUSTODYPetitioner: Andrew James King Respondent: Nancy Elaine JacobsThe words that followed were dense and formal and cold in the way that legal language always is, deliberately draining the humanity out of a situation that had nothing but humanity in it. I forced myself to read through it.Andrew was filing for sole legal and physical custody of Liam, citing instability and insecurity in the respondent's living situation, introduction of a romantic partner into the child's environment, and the respondent's alleged emotional volatility.Those were all thing he was saying about me!He had a lawyer. A good one, judging by the letterhead. There was a court date already scheduled.My hands were shaking by the time I folded the letter back along its crease. The room was so silent that I could the blood flowing through my own veins. I felt like I was dreaming. I di

    Nancy’s POV“Wait oh my god, this is your best work yet! I love it! Absolutely delicious!” I said after taking a huge bite of the red velvet cake Colton made. The color velvet had become our signature for everything. Every time he bought me a new gift, he made sure it had a shade of velvet in it.Even the flowers he got for me this morning were velvet.He laughed and the sound was adorable. “You say that every time I bake something new.”“Well, it’s not my fault they keep tasting better and better.” He lifted me easily by my waist and placed me on the kitchen counter, spreading my thighs and positioning himself in between my legs as he wrapped his arms around my waist. He had grown bolder with the way he touched me since we starting dating and I wasn’t complaining.We hadn’t moved further to having sex yet but my body literally couldn’t wait to have him inside me. He was still holding back a little but I planned to break down all his walls. I wanted to dig deep into Colton Earnshaw an

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S LOST FAMILY   CHAPTER 59 : FORGET

    Andrew’s POV“My brother with your ex. Next thing you know they’ll be raising your child together.” Catherine said as she sat at my desk, opposite me. We were in my office at king’s enterprises and we had just finished a meeting about the Earnshaw and King expansion in America.Everything was going well of course, like I knew it would. I’m a damn good business man. We already had investors lined up, wanting a share of what the Earnshaws and I had to offer. Since Nancy brutally removed herself from my life, I had been spending a lot of time with Catherine, so much that I had learned to tolerate her presence.I didn’t even mind her being around me anymore. When she wasn’t busy plotting on how to destroy Nancy, anyone could realize how fucking smart the woman was. She still wasn’t allowed to show up uninvited at my estate but since we’ve been working together a lot lately, she showed up at my home from time to time.Liam had even warmed up towards her. I didn’t want to think of Nancy’s r
