Eric's POV

I’d been pacing for what felt like hours, even though the clock told me it had barely been thirty minutes. My fingers kept running through my hair, and each time I paused, I’d glance toward the door where Sarah had been taken for questioning.

Inside, muffled voices rose and fell, and sometimes Sarah’s soft voice. She was trying her best to stay composed, but I knew she was close to breaking. I could hear it.

The door creaked open, and Sarah stepped out. Her eyes were red-rimmed, chee

  • The Billionaire's Secret Baby After Divorce   Chapter 142: What Is Your Next Move?

    Eric's POV“Bella Hayes.”I was on my feet before I even realized I had moved.“What? You knew?” My voice came out sharp in disbelief and a dangerous tone. “You knew?”Sarah flinched, but she didn’t deny it. That was all the confirmation I needed.A harsh, disbelieving laugh tore out of me as I paced away from her, dragging both hands through my hair.“You knew,” I repeated, louder this time, turning back to face her. “All this time… you knew that child was mine, and you said nothing?”“Eric—”“No!” I snapped, cutting her off as I pointed at her. “Don’t say my name like that. Don’t sit there and pretend like this is something small that you can sweet-talk your way out of. You knew all this while, and you kept it to yourself.”Her eyes welled slightly, but I didn’t care anymore.“I was looking for her,” I continued, my voice rising with every word. “Do you understand that? I was looking for my child. I spent seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years—years—trying to find out i

  • The Billionaire's Secret Baby After Divorce   Chapter 141: The Truth Is Out

    Eric's POVI stood there long after Mia left. The chair across from me sat empty, her untouched plate still warm, and her glass barely touched.My eyes remained fixed on the entrance she had just walked through, my mind replaying her family's name.My chest tightened.No.That didn’t make sense. It couldn’t make sense because if it did…I dragged a hand down my face, exhaling sharply as I fell back to my seat.That would mean I had been sitting across from my own daughter. I had been talking to her, and laughing with her.My stomach twisted violently.I didn't even recognize her. God, how could I have missed that?“D*mn it,” I muttered under my breath.My jaw clenched.If she were my daughter, then... No. I couldn’t jump to conclusions. I still needed to get my facts set straight. I can't just claim her as my daughter just because she's from the Warren family. I needed proof.“Sir?”I blinked, snapping out of my thoughts as the waiter approached cautiously.I exhaled, straightening sl

  • The Billionaire's Secret Baby After Divorce   Chapter 140: He Has Gone Insane

    Mia's POVFor a moment, neither of us spoke. He was still looking at me, but not the same way he had been just seconds ago. There was something sharper in his eyes now. It was almost like he was searching for something in my face.It made my chest tighten.“Do you know him?” I asked again, softer this time.His jaw shifted slightly, like he was thinking too fast to respond normally.“I’ve heard of him,” he repeated. "Yes."Before I could say anything else, the waiter returned, placing our food down between us. The rich smell of brunch dishes filled the air, but neither of us reacted to it.The waiter poured a glass of water for him. Eric reached for it immediately and gulped it down in one go.I blinked.That… wasn’t normal.“Are you okay?” I asked, leaning forward slightly.He didn’t answer right away. His fingers tightened around the glass for a second before he set it down.“I’m fine,” he said.But he didn’t sound fine not even a little.I frowned.“Are you sure?” I asked again.He

  • The Billionaire's Secret Baby After Divorce   Chapter 139: My Family's Name

    Mia's POV By the time I stepped out of the house, I felt like a criminal because I had managed to dodge breakfast, my mother, and any further discussion about the grand, life-altering, absolutely unnecessary graduation party she was planning for me. It took careful timing, a bit of quiet footwork, and slipping out just as the staff got distracted with something in the kitchen, but I did it. And now, as I slid into the driver’s seat and shut the door behind me, I let out a long breath. “Freedom,” I muttered under my breath, starting the engine. I adjusted my hands on the steering wheel, trying to ignore the way my heart was already beating a little faster than normal. I exhaled slowly, pulling out of the estate gates and onto the road. And by the time I pulled up in front of the restaurant, my nerves had settled just enough for me to pretend I was completely normal. I stepped out of the car, smoothing down my outfit instinctively before heading inside. The restaurant was elegant

  • The Billionaire's Secret Baby After Divorce   Chapter 138: The Idea Of Brunch With Him

    Mia's POVThe phone rang three times, and just before it could slip into voicemail, the line clicked.“Hello?”My breath caught instantly at the sound of his voice. It was deeper over the phone.“Hello?” he said again, a little louder this time.My lips parted, but no sound came out.Why couldn’t I speak?“Hello…?” There was a faint shift in his tone now. It sounded like confusion, maybe curiosity.My heart was racing so fast it felt like it might burst straight out of my chest.Say something, Mia, anything. But my throat locked.What was I even supposed to say?God, he was going to think I was insane, or worse, desperate.“Hello?” he tried again, softer this time.And that was it as panic surged through me, causing me to endthe call.The silence in my room slammed back into place, heavy and suffocating. I dropped my phone onto my bed like it had burned me, pressing my palms over my face.“Oh my God,” I groaned. “Why did I just do that?”I fell backward onto my pillows, staring up at

  • The Billionaire's Secret Baby After Divorce   Chapter 137: Call Him Or Don't Call Him

    Mia's POVI held Mr. Eric's card between my fingers as I drove home that night, glancing at it more times than I cared to admit. It sat on the passenger seat like it meant something, and I didn’t understand why.By the time I got back to the estate, the house was quiet. Dinner had long ended, and the staff moved around in peace. Somewhere in the distance, I could hear Miles laughing—probably on a call, probably being dramatic about something.I slipped upstairs without announcing my return.Once I was inside my room, I kicked off my heels, letting them fall somewhere behind me. I pulled the card out again, ran my thumb over the smooth surface. Then I sat at the edge of my bed, staring at it.What was I even supposed to say?Hi, it’s Mia. The girl who interrupted your dinner?Or—Hi, I don’t know why I’m calling, but I haven’t stopped thinking about you since dinner.I groaned softly, falling back onto the bed.“This is ridiculous,” I muttered to myself.It was just a card, but still…

    Mia's POVAfter our picnic date came to an end, Nikolas couldn't take his eyes off me. On our drive back home, Nikolas kept glancing at me with that soft smile of his, replaying little moments from the picnic, teasing me about how many cupcakes I’d eaten and how I pretended not to enjoy them.I lau

I stopped checking. I stopped wondering. I stopped caring. Life quietly went on, and I decided to go on
