•OCTAVIA•

I was pacing up and down the bedroom, and my phone was glued to my hand, waiting for Noah to pick up.

He’d been gone all day, and now it was past ten. Not a single text, not a single call. I was worried sick, thinking he was spending the night with another woman, doing everything he was doing in bed with me.

I hit the call button again for the fourth time in thirty minutes, and just as I was about to give up, the door creaked open.

Noah walked in, still wearing the same clothes from the night before.

“Where are you coming from, Noah?” I snapped, slamming my phone onto the bed. “How could you ignore my calls all day and show up now?”

He didn’t answer. Just gave me one cold look and headed straight for the bathroom.

I fumed and followed him, grabbing his shirt and yanking him back. “Don’t you dare walk away when I’m talking to you!”

He turned slowly, his eyes dark and tired. “What do you want, Octavia? Haven’t you done enough? You separated me from the mother of my children, a

  • The Poor Billionaire Heiress Returns!   Chapter 0077

    •CONNOR•The emergency room pulsed with chaos — shouting nurses, squealing gurney wheels, the sharp scent of antiseptic mixing with blood.And there she was. Giselle.Her face was pale, her lips trembling, her blouse soaked in red. I froze for half a second before instinct kicked in.“Let’s move!” I barked. “Trauma One. Now!”My hands pressed firmly against her shoulder wound as the nurses sprinted beside me. “BP’s crashing!” someone yelled.“Get me two units of O-negative and prep for surgery!” I ordered, my voice louder than my heartbeat.Her pulse was faint, almost gone. I stared down at her face, fighting the panic clawing at my chest.“Stay with me, baby,” I muttered. “Don’t you dare leave me.”The next moments were a blur — flashing monitors, pounding feet, the rhythmic count of compressions echoing in my head. I shocked her once. Nothing. Twice.Then, the monitor gave a slow, steady beep. Her heart was fighting again.“She’s back,” the nurse whispered in relief.I exhaled hard

    •CONNOR•“Dr. Crowe, thank you for saving my daughter’s life. She has been suffering from kidney stones for almost a year, but we didn’t know. We couldn’t afford to get her tested,” the woman sobbed, falling to her knees in front of me.I found her waiting for me in the waiting room when I returned from her daughter’s successful operation. I’d covered all the costs myself.When she first came in, clutching her daughter and begging us to save her, my heart broke. And when she told me she had no money for treatment, I didn’t even think twice before covering the bill.“It’s okay, Miss Shannon,” I replied as I extended my hand and helped her up. “Your daughter will stay overnight so we can make sure she’s stable and responding to the meds. You should go home and rest. It’s been a long day.”“Thank you so much, doctor. You can keep her for as long as you have to, just as long as my little girl comes home healthy. Nyeri is all I have, and I don’t want to lose her. I was scared to death when

    •GISELLE•A week passed, and I still said nothing to Connor, even when he came over to see the kids. I was simply not in the mood to talk with someone who did nothing while I was being betrayed.He watched me spend millions of dollars on Noah and his family while he knew he was sleeping with my sister. He kept quiet while they made me a fool and said nothing.He wasn’t even surprised when I called and told him about my divorce from Noah. He just told me I would be safe with him in New York.“Mom?” Adrian’s voice snapped me back to earth, and I tilted my head as he walked into my home office.“Hey, baby. Are you done with your drawings?” I got up and picked him up. His homeschool teacher was still around and wouldn’t be done until after an hour.“Miss Lynn told me to play because I was done drawing. Look at what I made,” he smiled proudly, handing me a piece of paper.I set him down and went to sit on the couch. Then I took the drawing and looked at it. My heart skipped a beat when I s

    •OCTAVIA•“My goodness, Helen,” I groaned, getting off the couch. “Can you please get away from me and stop trying to shove those tasteless biscuits down my throat?”I’d been trying to reach Noah all morning, but he kept sending my calls straight to voicemail.He’d left last night without saying a word, and it was driving me insane. I kept imagining him with different women, and worse, with Giselle.The last thing he said before walking out kept echoing in my head, and I found it hard to believe he didn’t want to rekindle his relationship with Giselle.They had children, but I didn’t want to give him up easily. Even if that meant I had to push Giselle to leave the state with Connor so Noah and I could focus on building our family.I didn’t even understand what Giselle was still doing in California. She had a whole new life with Connor in New York. There was nothing left for her in California.“You usually love the caramel biscuits, Miss North,” Helen replied softly. “Or should I chang

    •GISELLE•Noah: “How smart of you to send your lapdog to fight your battles. I won’t sign those papers, and you’d better tell him that before he comes back to my house and attacks me. For your sake, I won’t open a case against him.”The front door swung open after reading Noah’s text, and I slammed the cellphone on the couch as I turned to him.“What’s wrong with you, Connor?” I snapped. “I told you not to go to Noah’s house.”“I’ll take a shower and rest. It’s been a long day.” He dropped his car keys onto the vase in the hallway and walked past me.“If you want this to work, you must learn to control your emotions because I won’t lose my kids because of you. Noah could win the case if he told the court that you attacked him in his house.”He stopped in his tracks, sighed, and slowly turned around to face me. He had a cut on the side of his mouth and looked tired.A part of me was happy for how he took control to defend me, but I never thought he would go too far. He was supposed to
