For several seconds, he did not move.
She was on her side facing him, one hand curled near her face, hair spread across the pillow she had claimed as hers two nights earlier. The duvet had migrated toward her again.
He almost smiled.
Then he noticed that his hand was resting close to her waist without touching her.
Callum left it there.
Last night had changed what they knew about each other.
It had not changed what he

The Billionaire I’ll Never Marry Chapter 68 - Let Her Decide
Callum knew the meeting would be bad when Alistair invited Ailsa and then placed her across the table from him.Eilidh sat two chairs to Callum's left. Moira was beside her. Sinclair's general counsel and the family investment director occupied the far end, which meant whatever happened was meant to become more than an argument over breakfast.Alistair set the lender memo on the table.“Cairn has given the bank exactly what it needed.”Ailsa did not touch the copy in front of her.Callum had already read it twice.The client had possessed a viable route out of the joint debt and had chosen not to take it yet. Cairn was using that fact to argue that Exit confused a difficult financial choice with coercive entrapment.The argument was incomplete.It was also useful.Alistair looked at Callum.“You can end this today.”“No.”His father had not actually made the reques
The Billionaire I’ll Never Marry Chapter 67 - The Choice Exit Couldn't Make for Her
Mairi closed the door before she sat down.“That bad?” Ailsa asked.“Complicated.”“That usually means worse.”Mairi put the folder on the table between them.“The Cairn client made her decision.”Ailsa straightened.The woman had been out of the shared home for six weeks. Exit's partner network had helped make the separation practical: a safe flat, independent banking, and enough support to keep immediate money from deciding the rest for her.The last financial tie was the house.There was already a buyer.If she accepted the sale, the joint Cairn loan would close and she could walk away from the debt with her portion intact.It was a clean exit.Ailsa had wanted her to take it.“She rejected the offer?” Ailsa asked.“Yes.”“Why?” Ailsa asked.“Her son has final exams. Selling now me

Callum woke before Ailsa.For several seconds, he did not move.She was on her side facing him, one hand curled near her face, hair spread across the pillow she had claimed as hers two nights earlier. The duvet had migrated toward her again.He almost smiled.Then he noticed that his hand was resting close to her waist without touching her.Callum left it there.Last night had changed what they knew about each other.It had not changed what he was allowed to assume.Ailsa stirred a few minutes later and opened her eyes.“Morning.”“Morning.”She blinked at him.“You're staring.”“I was waiting for you to wake up,” Callum said.“That sounds worse.”Callum smiled.Ailsa shifted onto her back.Her gaze dropped briefly to the space between them, then returned to his face.He did not close it.&ldq
The Billionaire I’ll Never Marry Chapter 65 - Because I Want To
Ailsa used the key for the first time on Saturday night.She could have rung the bell.Callum knew she was coming, and the doorman had already seen her walk through the lobby with the new fob in her hand.Still, the click of the lock mattered.She opened the door herself.Callum was in the kitchen, sleeves rolled to his forearms, looking at a saucepan with the concentration of a man reviewing an acquisition.“You cooked.”He looked up.“I heated.”“That is more credible.”Ailsa closed the door behind her and slipped the key back into her bag.Nothing locked behind the gesture. She could use the same key to leave whenever she wanted.That was why she had come.Dinner was deliberately ordinary.Callum had bought pasta from a place three streets away and transferred it into a pan because he claimed delivery containers ruined the temperature.Ailsa informed him this was evidence of a personality disorder.He told her she had eaten half of it.They argued about a film neither of them had s
The Billionaire I’ll Never Marry Chapter 64 - The Door Stays Open
Callum's building manager chose Thursday morning to make Ailsa into an administrative problem.“She has stayed overnight more than once,” Graham said, standing in Callum's kitchen with a tablet. “Security can add Ms. Fraser as a household resident. Permanent access, garage authorization, staff recognition. It would save the desk calling up every time she arrives alone.”Callum looked toward the bathroom.Her toothbrush was still on the second shelf.The sensible answer arrived immediately: add her and make the arrangement easier.He had spent most of his life treating friction as evidence that a system needed improvement.Then he heard Ailsa's voice from two nights earlier.Keep the door usable.Callum looked back at Graham.“No resident profile.”Graham paused.“Would you prefer temporary access?”“A physical fob and a spare key. No household designation.”“We can add arrival notifications to your security feed,” Callum said.“No.”Graham's eyebrows lifted slightly.Callum ignored th
The Billionaire I’ll Never Marry Chapter 63 - Things He Doesn't Say
Ailsa spent most of the next day thinking about a phone vibrating at one forty-three in the morning.Callum was a chief executive. Important people called him at inconvenient hours. The Rotterdam problem had been real.What stayed with her was the speed.He had been out of bed before the second vibration, awake and useful before he knew whether anyone actually needed him.By evening, she had collected enough examples to make the pattern difficult to ignore.When Eilidh left, Callum had tried to reconstruct the failed wedding before he fully understood what Eilidh wanted. Sinclair problems moved toward him as if gravity applied. When Cairn went wrong, his first instinct had been to absorb the loss and keep everyone else from paying for his restraint.Even in private, he slept ready to get up.Ailsa found him at his apartment with his jacket off and a call ending against his ear.“Yes,” he said into the phone. “Send me the revised numbers in the morning. You don't need me tonight.”He e
