~ ALISTAIR’S ~

She had fallen asleep against my shoulder during the ride back.

Her head rested lightly, her breathing even, and for some reason, the sight stirred something inside me.

I wasn’t used to this—feeling my chest tighten while my pulse quickened without warning, like some teenager who had just learned about love.

I’ve had questions ever since the day I woke and met her. Questions about myself. About why I felt… different.

It’s not like I haven’t been this close to a woman before.

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    EPILOGUE — No More Contracts, Only Forever

    If anyone had told me three years ago that I would one day complain about attending an exclusive coastal gala as the acting CEO of the Montgomery Group, I would have laughed in their face. Yet here I was, sitting in the backseat of my chauffeured Maybach, rubbing my temples as I stared out at the winding oceanfront road. "Remind me again why this charity launch couldn't wait until Monday, Evan?" I murmured into my Bluetooth earpiece, smoothing down the intricate, pearl-beaded bodice of the white couture evening gown Stacy had practically forced me into an hour ago. "I still have the Q3 European merger files waiting on my desk." "Because the board insisted on a sunset reception at the glass pavilion, Madam," Evan replied smoothly on the other end of the line, though I swore I could hear a faint, suspiciously cheerful chuckle in his voice. "Trust me, the investors are already inside. Just walk through the main doors and let them see the face of the empire. You won't regret it,” he

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 245 — Welcome Home, Daddy

    ~ ISLA ~That single syllable hung in the moonlit air, carrying the sheer, undeniable weight of a miracle.For several agonizing seconds, my brain simply refused to process what my eyes were seeing. My chest rose and fell in shallow, erratic gasps, my entire body locked in place by a wave of shock so profound that it felt as though an electric current had surged through my veins.Those stormy gray eyes—awake, razor-sharp, and locked entirely onto mine—reflected the soft silver glow of the moon. They weren't blank, hazy, or disoriented. Even after three years of silence, they held that same fierce, possessive intensity, drinking me in as if I were the only thing keeping him anchored to this world."Alistair?" I whispered, my voice cracking completely as a fresh torrent of hot tears spilled over my lashes, tracing burning paths down my cheeks.Before I could even process my next breath, his grip around my wrist flexed. With a sudden, startling surge of strength that made me gasp, Alista

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 244 — Isla…

    ~ ISLA ~Night descended over the city in a sweep of glittering lights, bringing a crisp evening chill that contrasted sharply with the golden warmth of our private dining room.After our quiet afternoon gathering in Alistair’s hospital suite, the Vitale and Montgomery families—along with our closest friends—had migrated to an exclusive restaurant uptown to continue celebrating Iris’s fourth birthday. The private hall was decorated with soft pastel balloons and cascading floral centerpieces. Iris sat proudly at the head of the main table, looking every bit like a little princess in her fluffy pink velvet dress and sparkling tiara. She was surrounded by a mountain of wrapped boxes, custom toys, and affection from every corner of the room.Dad was currently attempting to teach her how to stack her new set of wooden building blocks, while Grandma Margot sat beside them, offering dry, imperious commentary on his structural technique. Across the table, Stacy and Tyler were laughing over an

    ~ ISLA~Time slipped through our fingers, turning months into years.And I kept the promise I made to Alistair. Over the next three years of taking over the corporate world, the Montgomery Empire flourished not just across America, but also around the globe—all thanks to Grandma Margot's guidance and Evan's dedication as the new President and COO of the Montgomery Group.It wasn't easy leading such a massive conglomerate while raising my daughter and ensuring I didn't miss a single moment as she grew. I had to balance boardrooms with bedtime stories, letting the memory of Alistair drive every ambition.After three long years, the private executive suite at Manhattan Northgate Hospital looked less like a medical room and more like a warm home. Iris had already started kindergarten when she turned three, and most of her drawings and tiny achievements were framed and hung neatly on the wall. She specifically requested it, wanting her Daddy to see them the moment he woke up. Our little gi

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 242 — Iris

    ~ ISLA ~The contractions hit me hard and fast on a crisp autumn evening, mirroring the suddenness of the life-changing storms we had fought through.Hours later, in the sterile yet bright delivery room of Northgate Hospital, a sharp, piercing cry echoed through the air.A healthy baby girl.When the nurses gently placed her tiny, warm form against my chest, my breath hitched, and tears streamed down my face. She had Alistair's dark, thick hair and a quiet, serene intensity in her little eyes. I named her Iris—a symbol of new colors and hope after the long, dark rain.Yet, even as I held our daughter for the very first time, the bittersweet ache in my heart remained. Three months had passed, but Alistair was still asleep. How wonderful it would be if he were here—able to hold the child we had anticipated for so long.After being transferred to a spacious, sunlit maternity suite on the executive floor, I didn't have to wait long before the door began to swing open. Word of little Iris’

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 241 — Everyone's Happy Ending

    Weeks drifted by like a slow, quiet river, carrying us steadily toward the full winter months. Despite the passing of time, the white sheets of Alistair’s hospital room remained unchanged.He still hadn't woken up.The doctors continued to monitor his vitals with careful precision, calling his condition stable yet stubbornly unchanged. But I refused to let the silence of the room deter me. Whenever I had a free afternoon, I would make the familiar drive across the city, sliding quietly into the chair beside his bed. I would brush back his dark hair, wrap my warm fingers around his motionless hand, and talk to him about everything. I told him about the shifting weather outside, about how the baby was kicking with restless energy, and about how much we all needed him to come back. I took care of him just as fiercely as he had once protected me, clinging to the willful belief that somewhere deep inside the darkness, he could still hear my voice.Outside the walls of that quiet hospital r
