Ace's POV

My feet moved on their own accord, leading me towards the cause of my anger. My fist was clenched by my side, nails digging into my palm to stop my anger from rising to the surface.

I was beyond furious and I didn't know who to direct my fury at.

Azalea or Noah.

When Noah told me everything, I knew I couldn't go a day without seeing the woman of my dreams again.

Now that I saw her, and I was seeing her for nothing than the whore she really was.

Then there was Noah, the betrayer. He knew just how much I had been obsessed with Azalea. He knew the days I spent searching for her but never found her. And now that I finally found her, his lips were locked in an intimate kiss with her. Her! The only girl he knew I really liked.

Too caught in my fury, I didn't notice Azalea's protruding belly immediately. I took a step back the moment I did, dumfounded.

Azalea pushed Naoh away from her the moment she set her eyes on me, her eyes displaying that she was just as shocked as I w

  • The Billionaire's Perfect Mistake    Chapter 52

    Escola's POVWatching him rush after Azalea, something twisted in my chest. I almost couldn’t believe it. Seeing Ace Black, yes, Ace Black, the man my father wanted me to marry in support of his campaign, dashing after her like that made my heart flutter in a way I didn't expect.Why was I jealous? What the hell was wrong with me?In my mind, I had pictured someone else entirely. A rich, cold-blooded heir, puffed-up, full of himself, a caricature of arrogance. But it turned out to be Ace, and he looked utterly different in person tonight. His shirt was slightly rumpled, sleeves rolled up, and his face was etched with concern and panic that went beyond play-acting when he saw Azalea. I realized then I was drawn to something real. His worry, his immediate reaction… it touched something inside me.Even earlier at the bar when his text, “You’re late,” flashed on my phone, I’d felt irritated. I thought, 'Who does he think he is?' I sat in the car and was deliberately a few minutes late

  • The Billionaire's Perfect Mistake    Chapter 51

    Ace's POV The chair I was sitting on fell backward with a loud, awkward clatter. My heart slammed hard against my ribcage, and from the look on Escola’s face, I wasn’t the only one shocked.“What happened?” Escola asked, turning around to follow my frozen stare.I barely heard her. My eyes were locked on Azalea, the one woman I had desperately hoped wouldn’t be here tonight, not like this, not seeing what she just saw.Her friend was jogging towards her, worry plastered all over her face.I didn't even think twice. My body moved on its own as I followed them, weaving past people, ignoring the lingering stares and whispered conversations.I wanted to explain. I needed to.I had only just arrived at that table. Escola was joking, hell, I was about to shut her down myself. I wasn’t here to get married, wasn’t here to follow my father’s ridiculous plan. And despite everything, despite how much of a wreck I was, I found myself getting attached to Azalea more than I ever thought possible.

  • The Billionaire's Perfect Mistake    Chapter 50

    Azalea's POV“Oh my goodness, look at the stars,” Lara exclaimed as we sat by the pool, completely exhausted from today’s activities.Even though I was pregnant, I didn’t let that stop me from having fun. I swam and even went to the game yard. It had been such a long time since I played soccer, and of course, we started the day with spa treatments. That was the very first thing we went for. My body still felt soft from the massage, but my legs were screaming from all the soccer.“I’m so exhausted,” I groaned, not taking my eyes off the stars Lara was pointing at.“Of course, you should be,” she laughed, shaking her head at me. “You’re carrying a whole human inside you and you did all that? I’m so proud of you,” she grinned, her smile stretching wide across her face.I returned her smile, feeling that familiar warmth in my chest. She stood up carefully and stretched out her hands to me. “Let’s go back to the room,” she said.“And maybe grab some drinks,” I winked, teasing her.“Nope,”

  • The Billionaire's Perfect Mistake    Chapter 49

    Ace's POV I sat in my car in the parking lot, my hands gripping the steering wheel so tight my knuckles had turned white.“Please, do this for your dad.” My mom’s voice echoed in my head. She sounded soft and tired from the phone call earlier.I let my head fall back against the seat, staring at the roof of the car, like it could somehow give me answers. I didn’t want to do this. I didn’t want to be here. I didn’t want to hand over my company like some peace offering to the man who never saw me as enough.The same man who spent years building his empire while tearing down every ounce of self-worth I ever had.And yet… my mom. After all the years. After all the bruises, seen and unseen, she still begged on his behalf.I squeezed my eyes shut, my jaw clenching so hard my teeth started to ache. The steering wheel creaked under my grip, and before I could stop myself, my fist slammed into it.The sharp sting in my knuckles barely scratched the surface of the storm brewing inside me.I sh

  • The Billionaire's Perfect Mistake    Chapter 48

    Azalea's POVIt was a brilliant sunny morning, one of those rare days when the sky looked immense and my heart hinted at hope. Lara and I had turned my room upside down, rifling through every dress, every touch of fabric in search of something perfect. I’d just told her about Ace showing up at my door, unannounced, helped assemble the baby playset, and left flowers. She dropped a sunflower yellow dress onto the bed, her eyes wide."Oh my goodness, he did all that?" Her voice was full of both awe and skepticism."Yes," I confirmed, lifting a pastel pink dress, just brilliant enough for a resort opening without being too showy. I turned toward her, trying to decide.“He came here to me, like that,” I said softly.Lara walked over and gathered me in a hug. “He’s the father of your baby,” she replied, half laughing, half reassuring. “And he showed up and built a play set for it. That’s more than most men do.”I bit my lip, nervous but strangely comforted. “I still feel so confused.”“Of

  • The Billionaire's Perfect Mistake    Chapter 47

    Ace's POVIt didn’t go how I pictured it.Honestly, I thought I’d be standing on the porch right now, humiliated, maybe with flowers thrown in my face and the door slammed shut.I’d prepared for that.I told myself I’d deserve it.But here I was, sitting in her living room, organizing the baby playhouse, like some suburban dad who actually had his life together.The playset clicked into place as I tightened the last piece. It wasn’t rocket science, but for some reason, my heart swelled with this weird, unfamiliar pride when I looked at it all done.Azalea hovered nearby, her arms crossed, watching me. She offered to grab me something to drink, but I waved her off.“I’ll get it,” I told her. “Relax.”Without thinking twice, I made my way to the kitchen like I’d been there before, like I belonged here, even though part of me knew I didn’t.The kitchen was small, but cozy, just like the rest of her place. Warm, welcoming. It screamed home.I could hear her footsteps behind me as she foll
