GRACE'S POV

Stella Chen walked into my office Tuesday morning looking six months pregnant. I stared at her standing in my doorway, the former best friend who'd lied on record for Marcus, who'd betrayed me for fifty thousand dollars, who I hadn't seen in over a year.

"Grace." She said my name like

    CARTER'S POV Hope went to the NICU for observation because she was early. Standard protocol for thirty-five weekers the doctors said.

  • 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

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 108

    The nausea hit hard. I barely made it to the bathroom before I was throwing up, my body rejecting this information the same way it would reject poison. I'd destroyed my marriage, destroyed Grace, and in the process I'd destroyed any chance of being a father to children who actually existed, who were

    I stared at those shoes trying to imagine the children who wore them. Trying to picture my sons running on a beach somewhere in Oregon, Grace chasing after them, all three of them happy in a life that didn't include me. The blue sneakers looked worn, well-used. The red ones were newer, cleaner. One

    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
