The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 46. Paying Her Off
Tatiana, Senior year in College...My heart was beating fast, and my palms were sweating.Oh god, how did I let this happen!?But I couldn't change anything now. The thing I was the most afraid of happening, already happened.I was pregnant.The weight of the news settled heavily on my shoulders. I stared at the positive pregnancy test, disbelief coursing through my veins. I never expected my life to take this turn, especially during my final year of college.As the reality sank in, a whirlwind of emotions consumed me. Fear, panic, and uncertainty swirled within.But what about Hunter? What would he say about this?We had been dating for nearly three years now, and he told me he loved me and I believed him. But did he love me enough to welcome this child into his life?Hunter had a bright future ahead of him as a biochemist. He had always been driven and focused on his career aspirations. Throughout college, he excelled in all of his classes and I was proud of him for it. His dream wa
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 47. I Won't Kiss You
Present day...McKennaI stared at my Mom, completely dumbfounded by her story."I don't believe this. You think Hunter sent that man to you?" I said."I had no reason not to believe him," I said grimly."But Mom, that doesn't sound like Hunter at all. The Hunter I have gotten to know had no problem accepting me as his daughter as soon as I proved myself to him. He said he had no idea I even existed! Why would he lie like that if he already knew you were pregnant? This whole thing does not make any sense," I argued.My mom sighed, her face etched with exhaustion and frustration. "I know it doesn't make sense, McKenna. But there are things about Hunter that you don't know. Maybe he wanted to protect himself, I don't know."I slumped back into the couch, my mind spinning with conflicting emotions. "It's just not adding up, Mom."Mom looked tired. "At the time, I was so devastated I didn't see logic. I tried to reach out to Hunter and give him the peace of my mind, but he wouldn't speak
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 48. Solving Mystery
Hunter I couldn't run to the bathroom fast enough. I had been groveling all day, trying to find an excuse to see Tatiana. I even considered falling to her feet and begging for her forgiveness until she took me back. When I left Tatiana's house that day, I was consumed by anger. I thought about going back to my former self. The emotionally distant and detached person who didn't give a shit about love or anything that had to do with love. But who was I kidding? I could never go back to being that person again. Ever since Tatiana came back to my life, I realized something. There was no way in hell I could live without her. Not when McKenna was in the picture too. I knew McKenna couldn't hate me and the thought gave me comfort. But Tati? She hated me so much. So, all I could do was drown in my misery while I tried to figure out how to force her to be with me again. I took the fastest shower I could manage and quickly got dressed. Then stormed back to the living room where everyone was
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 49. Misunderstanding
Tatiana"McKenna, do you mind if I speak to your Dad alone?" I asked.McKenna nodded in understanding. "Sure Mom. Dustin and I will hang out in his room until you're ready to call us back.""There will be no hanky panky, I swear, Ms. Henry!" Dustin said and raised his hands in mock surrender.I smiled at him. "I owe you an apology, Dustin."Both McKenna and Dustin looked at me with a bewildered expression. "Why?" Dustin asked."Actually, I owe an apology to both you AND McKenna. I apologize for letting my anger blind me and stop you from making your own choices, McKenna. And Dustin, I apologize to you because I judged you for no reason. You have been a stand-up guy and supported Mckenna through everything," I said and took a deep breath.Dustin took my hand in his. "It's okay, Ms. Henry. I can come off as brash and arrogant sometimes, so I am not always popular with Moms," he joked."Please call me Tatiana. I give you my full blessing to date McKenna. Just...just don't hurt her, okay?
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 50. Epilogue
McKennaOne year later...I decided to take the internship after all. This really was a great opportunity, and it wasn't like I would miss college entirely! I had already been accepted to MIT, so all I had to do was wait.Besides, Hunter said I had been kicking ass at work!"Ready to go?" Dustin asked as I greeted him. We had been going out for a year now, and things have been going well."Yup. Mom will be pissed if we are late," I said as I got into his car.Oh, did I mention Mom was living with Hunter now? She told me I could stay at the house and help with the mortgage since I was making enough at work and I happily agreed. I was just glad she was finally letting me be more independent.Dustin smiled at me, his hazel eyes sparkling with excitement. "Well, let's not keep your mom waiting then," he said, revving the engine of his sleek black car.As we drove through the familiar streets of our small town, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. So much had changed in the past
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 51. Bonus Story: Tatiana Meets Hunter
Tatiana Henry, 19 years old..."Ugh! Dammit!" I cried and threw my pen across the room."Ms. Henry!" my Chemistry professor gasped and then glared at me. I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks as the class turned to stare at me. I hadn't meant to swear out loud, but I couldn't help it. The frustration was too much to contain.I had been struggling with the assignment for hours, trying to balance the chemical equation and failing miserably. My professor had given me an extra day to complete it, but even with the extra time, I couldn't seem to figure it out.I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. I glanced around the classroom, feeling like everyone was judging me. Then, I saw him.Hunter Brooks, the star student of our class, was sitting in the front row, his eyes locked on me with a mixture of amusement and pity. I could feel my face turning even redder."Ms. Henry, is there a problem?" My professor's voice broke through my embarrassment."No, no problem," I stuttered, try
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 52. The Best One
HunterI prepared for my study date with Tatiana. Hair slicked back, I put on a pair of faded jeans and a designer white T-shirt. I made sure the shirt fit me snugly. Not tight, but enough to accentuate my muscular frame. Because what girl can resist a fit man!"Well, who are you all dressed up for?" my roommate Harry raised his eyebrows."The girl I had my eyes on since the beginning of the semester. Tatiana Henry," I replied with a smirk."Ah, good luck. I heard she is a real prude," Harry said."Where did you hear that?" I asked."Rumors, man, just rumors," Harry chuckled, giving me a playful pat on the back. "But hey, you do you. Just be yourself, and she might surprise you."I shot him a confident smile. "She does act too serious sometimes, but I like that about her.""You like how hot she is," Harry pointed out."She is interesting. Something about her draws me toward her, and I want to make her mine." I grinned. Harry raised an eyebrow. "Yours? You want her to be one of your
The Billionaire's Secret Daughter 53. A Dream
TatianaGosh. I couldn't believe Hunter arrogantly announced he would make me his. Who does that!?Well, good luck to him because I was not interested in a guy like him.But...I had to admit, today, he helped me out a lot. The way he explained every problem and equation made it so much easier to understand Chemistry. He really knew his stuff, and it was kind of a turn-on...Turn on? What am I thinking? Hunter Brooks didn't turn me on!I found myself in a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts as I thought about Hunter. It didn't help that he was annoyingly good looking. He just wore a basic t-shirt and jeans today, and yet, I couldn't stop stealing glances at his body. Something was seriously wrong with me today."He helps me with Chemistry, and suddenly it's a turn-on? No way," I mumbled to myself, attempting to dismiss the thought. Yet, the undeniable truth lingered in my mind.The idea of being "made his" still irked me, so I decided to turn him down no matter what happens.But it turne
