Charlene was sitting in a pool of her own tears when Vicky entered, her heels kissing the floor. She ran over to Charlene, her eyes widening at the terrible sight before her. Charlene seemed absolutely miserable, and did not even notice when Vicky walked in.

“Oh my goodness, Char. What happened now?”

“Vicky..” Charlene collapsed into her friend's arms, weeping uncontrollably. Even after Vicky pleaded with her to stop, she continued to wail, her world seemingly crashing down before her eyes.

“It's Noah.. he's taking me to court. He wants to fight for Harry's custody! You know he'll win!” She sniffed, her shivering fingers clinging onto Vicky's arm. Her red eyes finally looked up, bearing the weight of her dilemma, and forcing tears down Vicky's own eyes.

“No he won't..” Vicky's voice came out shaky, “my father's lawyer will take the case, and I'll handle the bills. We will fight him.”

Charlene slowly shook head, moving away from Vicky and burying her face in her palms. With a slow

  • The Masked Billionaire's Baby Mama    Bonding?

    After Charlene and Harry had gone to bed, Noah sat in the living room by himself, taking his mask off. His mind had wandered, and he thought of ways to take down Mason and Don Romero. Mason had made a huge mistake by attacking him, and he wasn't going to let it slide. He suddenly remembered his phone and quickly reached for it. It was lying on the couch. Noah was not surprised to find countless missed calls from Knight, Bianca and Veronica. They must have all heard about the shootout. Immediately, he called Knight back and he answered on the very first ring, his panting coming through first. “Where the fuck have you been!?” He crashed out and Noah frowned. “Really?” “I'm sorry boss,” Knight cleared his throat, realizing that he had overstepped his boundaries. He couldn't help it, he had been worried sick and even thought his boss was dead, especially since the police said that he was nowhere to be found. “But I've been worried,” he continued, “what happened? Where are you? I'm s

  • The Masked Billionaire's Baby Mama    It lingers.

    What was he doing? This was the same woman who he was supposed to be taking to court, the same woman he was supposed to detest. But what was happening? He was worshipping her body, he wanted her more than he had ever wanted anything.His arm snuck around her waist, firmly grabbing her and pulling her closer, until there was no space between them. Her soft breasts pressed against his hard chest, and he took in a deep breath, completely smitten.Charlene held her breath, too stunned and too afraid to move. She wanted him badly, she never stopped craving for him even after six years of separation. The memories of the night that Harry was conceived were still etched in her memory, never fading away.The feel of his masculine but gentle touches, his minty scent that didn't leave her body even after two days, and his deep, throaty groans that left her knees weak and the rest of her body desperate. Noah called her back to the present when he suddenly lowered his head and breathed on her nec

  • The Masked Billionaire's Baby Mama    Lust.

    Inside an abandoned brewery, Don Romero sat in a swivel chair, a stick of tobacco between his lips. He let out a deep growl and dropped the stick in an ash tray before him. Mason was standing before him, his head lowered and his heart slamming against his chest in fear. He knew he had crossed the line, and that he could die at any moment. Don Romero glared at him, his brown teeth grinding against each other. He felt intense anger, but he was trying to stay as calm as possible. With a smack of his palm on the desk, he startled Mason.“What is wrong with you?” He asked, his voice calm but definitely domineering. “I'm s..”“Save your silly apology, you brat! What did I tell you? Did I not ask you not to lay hands on him!?” He banged on the desk again, and Mason finally raised his face, seething.“I don't get what you need him for! If you want revenge, why are you protecting him!?” Don Romero's eyes narrowed, releasing a heavy breath. It was obvious that he was trying to hold back and

  • The Masked Billionaire's Baby Mama    Saving him.

    Noah was back in his penthouse after spending the night with his mother. Bianca and Veronica remained at the hospital, but Noah had to leave to attend to some work and also get his new phone up to date. He was going through his emails on his computer when he came across one from an important company in China. He let out a muffled “shit” when he realized that he was almost too late. The email had an invite attached to it, he was supposed to meet the Chinese delegates that very night to discuss further partnerships and it was something he couldn't afford to miss. Having no other choice, he closed the computer and quickly went to get ready.Somehow, something felt off about the journey he was about to embark on but he waved it off and went on his way.Noah made his entrance into the exclusive restaurant where he was supposed to meet with the delegates from China. He was surrounded by his guards, his demeanor, charming and intimidating.His slick, black suit clung to his body, making hi

    “Boss, I really didn't get close to your family in your entire six years of absence. But I noticed that Charlene was not on good terms with your mother and sister.” Knight shrugged, swerving past a sharp bend. “So, you're saying that my mom is right about her?” “Possibly.” Knight cleared his throat, feeling relieved that they had already gotten to the hospital. If he had spent a few more minutes with Noah, he would have quickly figured out that he was lying. They entered the hospital together, Noah walking with hastened steps as he couldn't wait to find out how his mother was doing. He suddenly became oblivious of his own injuries, but Bianca and Veronica dropped their jaws as soon as they saw him.Veronica, reaching him first, grabbed his arm in a bid to support him. “Oh my goodness! Noah, what happened to you!?” “Did you get into a fight!?” Bianca sniffed, standing in front of him. Her eyes were already swollen and red from crying so much, and seeing her brother in that conditi

  • The Masked Billionaire's Baby Mama    The truth.

    “What do you have with him? What reason could he possibly have to trash you this badly?” Charlene questioned, her eyes gleaming with curiosity.She had always known that Mason was bad news, but she didn't expect this. “It shouldn't bother you.” Noah simply answered.“Is he behind what happened to your mother as well?” She persisted and he shot her a glare, but that didn't make her squirm as usual. She stared back at him, expecting a response.“It shouldn't bother you.” He repeated and she sighed in defeat, pulling out a few bandages from the first aid box. She carefully placed them on the cleaned up wounds on his face, and he could only stare at her in awe. “Well, whatever you do..” she paused, closing the kit as she was already done caring for him. “Don't get killed because Harry will be heartbroken.” She avoided his gaze after that, struggling to hide the tears that had gathered in her eyes. She knew quite well that it wasn't just about Harry. Despite the hate from him, she could

    The drive to Charlene's house was silent, with Noah refusing to say a word to her. She kept her gaze on the road, but so many thoughts ran through her head. What could have happened to him to leave him so bruised? Did he perhaps get into a fight? She fought the urge to ask him what happened to him, because he didn't look like he wanted to talk about it. They got to her house and Vicky was already waiting outside, worried sick. Her expression changed as soon as she saw Noah limping towards the front door. She shot deadly glares at Charlene, but Charlene's eyes dropped, filled with guilt. She invited Noah inside, but he almost tripped when he climbed the porch. Luckily, Charlene grabbed his arm just in time, and their eyes met shortly before they headed inside. Vicky rolled her eyes heavily at them before walking into the house as well. “Sit here, I'll be right back.” Charlene said with a cold gaze before going upstairs to fetch the first aid kit. Vicky glared at Noah before joinin

    “Find him! Find that motherfucker!” Noah was losing his mind, he couldn't fathom what had just happened, he simply couldn't wrap his head around it. He was losing his stamina, his vision suddenly becoming impaired. He thought of taking his mask off because he simply couldn't breathe. “Believe me sir, I've tried. We've searched the entire vicinity, but there's nothing to lead us to him.” Knight scratched his head, equally worked up. Noah's tension was telling on him as well.“Bullshit! He's not a ghost that can vanish into thin air, he's fucking walking the surface of this earth so there's no way he can't be tracked. Find him as soon as possible.” With that, Noah rushed off, heading to his mother's ward only to meet the doctors stepping out. “How's my mother?” “She's fine, recovering well. The wound has been treated so you have nothing to be worried about.” One of the doctors answered him and he sighed, feeling relieved. “Thank goodness.” Bianca took a deep breath, still sitting

    As soon as Noah dashed out the door, Vicky came downstairs rubbing her eyes, woken up by all the noise. She met Charlene in a troubled state, her gaze fixed on the open door. “Was that Noah?” Vicky questioned, struggling to see as her eyes were still heavy from sleep. A worried Charlene nodded, her restlessness getting the better of her. “I think I need to follow him, something might have happened to his mother.” She stated and Vicky pulled back, her eyes widening as sleep vanished from them. She could not believe her ears, and for a moment, she thought she heard wrong. “You're worried about the same woman who abused you, framed you and wants you dead? You want to go after the same man who is planning to ruin you?” “I am very much aware of what they've done, Vicky. But this is no time for resentment. Noah might be acting like an ass right now but he's still Harry's father, and I know he's not a bad person.” Charlene's intense gaze made Vicky's jaw drop. “Can I borrow your keys? I
