CARTER'S POV

The call from my lawyer came at nine Monday morning. I was in my car outside Grace's office building trying to decide if showing up would help or hurt when my phone rang.

"Carter, the results are in. You're not the father. Zero percent probability. The baby isn't yours." My lawyer sou

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 300

    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

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 299

    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

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 110

    "I promise." I meant it. I was too overwhelmed to make good decisions right now, too emotional to trust myself not to do exactly what Marcus had warned against—push too hard and make everything worse. We hung up and I stood in my apartment surrounded by evidence of my obsession. Laptop open to I***

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 122

    Grace finished with the car seat, grabbed James's hand, started walking toward the parking lot. Fast. Not running but close. I took one step toward her and she turned. "Don't." Just one word, but I stopped. She was fifteen feet away, twins between us, and her face was the same one she'd worn the da

    More photos. The twins at the beach, building sandcastles. At what looked like a library story time. Getting into Grace's car outside a small house that must be hers. Every photo was invasive, captured moments that should've been private, showed me a life I had no right to observe. But I couldn't s

  • The Billion Dollar Bet   Chapter 121

    CARTER'S POV I sat in my car outside Haystack Park for forty minutes before the nausea kicked in. Not the sick-from-nerves kind. The you're-a-stalker-and-you-know-it kind. Rick's surveillance notes said Grace brought the twins here most Tuesdays around two. It was 1:47. I'd parked three spots down
