GRACE'S POV

I couldn't lie to them anymore. Couldn't keep giving them partial truths when August was asking three times to verify and James was asking if Carter could be their real daddy. They deserved the full story, age-appropriate version or not. They were asking and I had to answer.

"Yes." I s

    GRACE'S POV We got married on a Saturday in my backyard with thirty people watching. Small and intimate and nothing like our first wedding that had been all performance. This time everything was real. August and James were ring bearers, five years old and serious about their responsibilities. Li

    CARTER'S POV Hope went to the NICU for observation because she was early. Standard protocol for thirty-five weekers the doctors said. Grace was exhausted but stable and I sat with her while nurses worked on our daughter in the next room. "I want to see her." Grace was trying to sit up. "Carter,

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 298

    GRACE'S POV I called Carter Sunday morning with my conditions. "I read your letter five times. I believe you know me. But Carter, knowing someone and staying with someone are different things." I was sitting on my porch while the twins played inside with my mom. "I need you to prove you'll stay

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 297

    CARTER'S POV I spent three days writing the letter. Not because I couldn't think of things to say but because I kept deleting what I wrote. Kept falling into old patterns of what sounded good instead of what was true. Dr. Chen told me to stop performing and just write honestly about why I loved Gr

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 296

    CARTER'S POV The full reality hit me about thirty seconds after Grace told me. I was going to be a father again. Was going to have another chance at the beginning I'd missed with August and James. Was going to be there from the first moment if Grace let me. I sat down hard in her office chair be

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 295

    GRACE'S POV I'd been nauseous for a week. Blamed it on stress from the press conferences and therapy and trying to figure out if Carter and I were actually doing this. My mom noticed first. "Grace, you look green. When did you last eat?" She was watching me push food around my plate at Sunday di

    But I'd kept the receipt. Kept the dress in my closet like a talisman or a punishment. Physical evidence that Grace had moved on, had built something beautiful, had become someone I could never deserve. My mother called once a month, brief conversations where she asked if I was eating and sleeping

    I didn't look at Carter. Didn't need to. The message was clear enough. The applause when I finished felt distant, muted. I walked off stage and immediately looked for Aisha, needing to leave before Carter could corner me again. She appeared at my elbow like she'd been waiting. "Can we go? Please?"

    I'd done that. Made that choice when I called Grace a liar. Made it again when I signed papers saying I wasn't responsible for any children she might have. Made it every day for two years by respecting her boundaries and not pushing for confirmation or contact or any of the things I'd be entitled to

    "Grace Monroe." A voice I didn't recognize made me turn. Woman in her forties, elegant, wearing one of our postpartum designs. "I'm Rebecca Chen. My husband and I run the investment firm that backed your competitor last year." "The one that went under after their founder was caught stealing?" I kep
