The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 47: Do You Think Anyone Will Come to Your Rescue?
She was hiding something.He had known it from the beginning, from the hospital, from the way she'd deflected his questions about her overseas records, from the herbal preparation sitting ready in her refrigerator as though it had always belonged there.Vivian Rong knew his condition. She knew it the way you know something you have lived with, not something you have read about.He needed to find out why.He made a mental note to follow up with his investigator in the morning, tightened his arm around the slender waist of the woman lying rigid beside him, just enough to confirm she wasn't going anywhere and let the darkness pull him under.For the first time in longer than he could clearly remember, he slept well.Vivian had absolutely no idea when she fell asleep.She remembered going stiff. She remembered staring at the ceiling and conducting a silent, furious internal negotiation with herself about the situation. She remembered the warmth of him and the particular steadiness of his
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 46: She Is So Different
"Alright." Vivian pressed two fingers to her own temple and accepted the situation with the weariness of someone who has run out of better options. "I'll find you something for the fever. Go back to the room and wait, I'll bring water."She looked at his face.A sick Ethan Hartwell, she thought, is considerably more difficult than a healthy one. At least when he was operating at full capacity, the authority was predictable. Like this, fever-flushed, grip on her wrist loose but persistent, jaw set with the stubbornness of someone who refused to admit they felt terrible, he was something else entirely.The grip eased.She went to the bathroom cabinet, found the fever medication on the second shelf, filled a mug with warm water from the dispenser, not too hot, not cold, the temperature that was actually useful and carried it back to the bedroom.The room was dim, the small bedside lamp throwing warm orange light across the familiar space. Her space. Her sheets, her pillow, her particular
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 45: The Illusion of a Cheating Wife
Zachary flipped through the pages with the casual disinterest of someone who had already decided."Another formulaic drama." He closed the script without looking up. "Not interested."He hadn't handed it back yet."You lost the bet," Vivian said, with complete calm. "Those are my terms. You don't have a choice."Zachary went still for a moment.Then, slowly, his chin came up. The half-lidded phoenix eyes focused on her face with a new, sharper attention, the expression of a man who had spent years being bored and had just encountered something that wasn't.His lips curved."Interesting," he said.A pause."I'll take the job."Vivian had been aware of the gaze from the edge of the track since the moment she stepped off the bike. It sat between her shoulder blades like a presence she couldn't look directly at without her composure doing something she couldn't afford.The sensation was deeply, specifically uncomfortable.Like being caught sneaking in past curfew, she thought. By someone
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 44: Ethan Hartwell Is Here!
The night wind hit her face like cold water.The engine underneath her was screaming.Vivian pushed the accelerator all the way down and held it there.Her bike wasn't the Tomahawk. She had built this one herself, sourced the parts, done the modifications, learned what she needed to learn in the years when learning things was the only productive response to having nothing. The engine couldn't match Zachary's on raw power. She knew that going in.She wasn't racing his engine.She was racing his two-minute handicap and every corner he hadn't memorized the way she had.---The track disappeared under her wheels in dark segments, each curve arriving and passing before it fully registered. This was the state she chased when everything else felt like too much, the particular clarity that came when speed reduced the world to the next fifty meters and nothing else had any jurisdiction over her.She had needed this tonight.The plan had been forming since the KT meeting, sharpened through thre
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 43: She Simply Knows She Won't Lose
The silence that followed her recitation of the bike's specs lasted approximately three seconds.Then Old Three let out a low whistle. "Alright. She's not bluffing on the knowledge." He reconsidered her with visibly revised respect, though the skepticism hadn't fully cleared. "Still, knowing what the bike is and being able to race against it are two very different things, little sister. I'm just saying, don't hurt yourself."Vivian had already stopped listening to him.She was looking at Zachary Young.She reached up, unclipped her helmet, and tossed it to him in a clean, easy arc."Simple terms," she said. "You lose, you do something for me. I lose, I give you the contact information for the owner of the Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa."The crowd noise dropped by several degrees.The Hayabusa. Suzuki's 1999 superbike, six units produced globally, five of them damaged beyond recovery. One remaining. The single most sought-after collector's motorcycle in the world, and the one that every ser
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 42: Turns Out It's a Girl
Vivian held absolutely still.She was essentially a statue at this point, spine rigid, breathing minimal, every muscle in her body committed to the single goal of not disturbing the man whose arm was draped across her waist with the relaxed, unconscious certainty of someone who had found what they were looking for and stopped looking.Time moved strangely in the dark.Her back had begun to register a formal complaint somewhere around the ten-minute mark. By the time the grip around her waist finally, gradually, imperceptibly began to loosen, the long lashes settling still, the tension in his brow smoothing out into something genuinely peaceful, she had lost track of how long she'd been lying there performing her best impression of a throw pillow.The moment the arm went slack, she moved.Slow. Precise. Off the bed, phone retrieved, three careful steps to the door, handle turned with both hands to prevent any soundThe door clicked softly shut behind her.Vivian stood in the hallway an
