The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 68: I Believe in Mom!
Rosie pressed her lips together. Thought about it with great seriousness, the way she thought about everything that mattered.Then her brow furrowed into the particular determination that meant a decision had been reached, and her grape-dark eyes filled with a resolve that was entirely too large for a face that small."I want to come with you," she announced. "To work."She sat up straighter against the pillow, chin lifting. "There are bad people outside. They'll try to bully you." Her small jaw set firmly. "I have to be there to protect you."Because it was her fault. That was the part she hadn't said out loud, but it was there, running underneath everything — the quiet, heavy weight of a child who had decided that Mom was in a difficult situation because of her, and that the only reasonable response was to personally prevent any further difficulties from occurring.Vivian looked at her daughter's face.At the furrowed brow and the clenched little fists and the utter, absolute seriou
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 67: Vivian Is Going on a Show!
But she laid out the full picture first, before letting Vivian decide anything."Return to Grace is still casting for the female lead, and a lot of newcomers turned up for it. You have more on-screen experience than most of them, you could genuinely catch the director's eye. Even if the lead or second lead is out of reach, a supporting role with real screen time is realistic. From there, you build. New scripts, growing visibility, a real shot at making a name for yourself." Estelle's tone stayed level, professional. "The other path is considerably less certain."She continued, laying it out with the same calm objectivity. "The music industry is brutal right now. It's not like acting, where new faces break through constantly. Since Zachary Young blew up, no one else in his lane has really broken through in any comparable way. If you go this direction, it's going to be harder than you think." A pause. "Think it through properly. If you're certain, fine, but if you're not, you can still
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 66: Have You Decided to Go Down This Road?
The most important thing was that, as a man, even a very small one, he felt a constant sense of crisis. He always felt like he was competing with someone for Mom!The facts had already proven him right.Just now, Dad clearly didn't know how to wash dishes, but pretended he did, all to fool Mom. That was exactly why Rosie hadn't wanted to go watch TV, she wanted to claim Mom's bed first, before Dad could get any closer.With her arms crossed and her refusal to cooperate, Vivian could only speak gently. "Rosie, why don't you like your dad? Actually, your dad""I don't want to listen." Rosie immediately clapped both hands over her ears, presenting Vivian with nothing but a stubborn little back that had no intention of hearing another word.She was wearing her bunny pajamas today, complete with a fluffy little tail sticking out from the seat. Vivian found her so unbearably adorable in that moment that she lost the will to push the subject further.Maybe, she thought, it's simply because t
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 65: No Man Wants You, But I Still Do!
Rosie had been sitting on the edge of the bed watching the door when Vivian came flying through it.She observed, with calm four-year-old attention, as her mother pressed her back against the closed door, raised both hands to her own head, and began fanning her hair with the desperate energy of someone attempting to put out a fire through sheer force of air movement. She watched Vivian locate a book on the nightstand, open it to a random page, and use it as a fan with increasing urgency.Rosie blinked."Mom," she said. "Is your hair on fire?"Vivian fanned harder. "I'm just, it's hot."Rosie considered this. Turned her head to look at the window, through which the darkened autumn evening was fully visible, cool, calm, the kind of night that had nothing whatsoever to do with heat.She looked back at her mother."Mom," she said, with the patient precision of someone delivering helpful information, "it's autumn.""I know what season it is.""The evenings are cool.""Rosie.""It was defin
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 64: It Seems He Should Learn More!
Vivian came out of the bathroom with a towel around her hair, the hairdryer hanging from one hand, still running the other hand through damp ends.Her phone buzzed on the coffee table.Out of pure habit, she called toward the hallway, "Rosie, could you"She stopped.Right. Rosie had already gone to her room.She was going to have to dry her hair and check her own phone like a functional adult. She tucked the hairdryer under her arm and reached for the phone just as Ethan came out of the kitchen."The kitchen is done," he said.His voice had that particular quality it got sometimes, low, resonant, the kind of voice that had no business existing in a domestic context and yet here it was, announcing that he had washed the dishes.Vivian looked at him.Processed the statement.Done. He had cleaned the kitchen. The man who had needed a video tutorial from his secretary to locate the tap had cleaned the kitchen.She wasn't sure what the appropriate response was to this information. He was s
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 63: Mr. Hartwell Is Definitely Not Showing Off!
Vivian hadn't noticed the small silent exchange between father and daughter.She was already at the refrigerator, pulling out the juice she had bought at the fresh market, setting three cups on the counter with the efficient movements of someone mentally ticking items off a list. She poured each cup to the same level, neat, unhurried, the particular care of someone for whom this kind of small domestic precision was simply how things were done.She carried all three to the table, set one in front of Rosie, one in front of Ethan, and kept one for herself.Then she lifted hers.The smile that followed was entirely unself-conscious, wide and warm and completely genuine, the smile of someone who has arrived somewhere after a very long journey and is allowing themselves, for one moment, to simply be glad about it."Today is our first day together," she said. "All three of us, under the same roof." She looked at both of them, the small face and the composed one, the mismatched pair that were

Vivian had already decided to pretend she hadn't seen them.She was two steps from a clean escape when Rebecca's voice floated after her, soft and perfectly pitched."Sister?"The word landed like a fishhook.Vivian kept walking."Vivian!" Rebecca stepped smoothly into her path, eyes wide with manu
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 3: She Should Have Known Better
Nathan was quiet for so long that Vivian almost checked to see if the call had dropped. When he finally spoke, his voice was careful. "So then you're going to" He stopped himself mid-sentence. Stupid question. Rosie was here. Of course Vivian was staying. He cleared his throat and tried a d

The internet was already on fire. But none of that chaos had anything to do with what was happening outside the glass doors of KT Star Entertainment on the forty-second floor of a Midtown Manhattan high-rise. Vivian Rong had just walked out of her audition and passed. She hadn't even made it
The Billionaire’s Secret Heir Chapter 1: A Gift at the Door
The Manhattan sun beat down like liquid fire. At Margaret Hartwell's forty-fifth birthday gala, nearly every elite in New York's social circle had shown up to be seen. A hundred-meter red carpet stretched across the entrance of The Grand Harlow Hotel, flanked by hundreds of media outlets. Journali
