“Where are you going?” Isabella asked.

“I need to head out for a bit, Mom. If Zayne wakes up, please let me know,” Elmy said as she grabbed her car keys from the nightstand. Isabella let out a long sigh and simply let her go.

Behind the wheel, Elmy’s emotions churned violently. Truthfully, she wasn’t sure yet whether Vincent was behind all of this. But considering everything that had happened between them, wasn’t he the most likely to do something this cruel?

Her grip tightened around the steer

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   EPILOG

    “Zaniel is amazing, isn’t he? Look at him, he’s so energetic. He’s only five years old, but he’s already so smart,” Amelia commented as she sat beside Elmy, serving cake and cold drinks on the terrace.Elmy watched Zaniel quietly. Even though she hadn’t been able to breastfeed him, he had still grown into a healthy child. These days, he loved playing soccer with Zayne. Recently, he had even started asking them for a little sibling.Unfortunately, that was the one thing Zayne would never allow again. Even though Elmy was willing to get pregnant one more time, the doctor had warned them that another pregnancy would be extremely risky considering what she went through during her first delivery.“He said he wants to become a soccer player,” Elmy said with an amused smile as she looked at Amelia. “What about Nana? Is she starting kindergarten this year?”“Nana said she wants to become a model. I guess Sebastian’s artistic side really runs in her blood,” Amelia replied with a knowing smile.

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   222. Finally Home

    Elmy sat there restlessly. Her hands were tightly clasped together while her legs wouldn’t stop moving. She kept glancing at her watch over and over again, wishing time would just stop. She had already met Dante before—she had even wished for him to disappear from her life.But now, she was terrified of being rejected by her own father.Elmy stared at her trembling fingers. Why was she acting like this?Because of guilt?Because she finally realized that Dante had actually cared about her all this time?Or because Elmy was afraid Dante wouldn’t forgive her?All those thoughts stormed through Elmy’s head. She had been thinking about this for days, and in the end, she decided she wanted to fix everything. No matter what happened, she would accept it.Elmy had been left alone on the balcony by Isabella, who was downstairs trying to calm Zaniel’s loud crying. For some reason, the baby got fussy easily whenever someone else held him. But thankfully, Isabella seemed to manage to calm him do

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   221.What If I Was Wrong?

    “Where’s Zayne? Why can’t I see him?” Sebastian asked while gently rocking his baby during their video call.“Oh, Zayne…” Elmy swallowed the food in her mouth first before answering. “He went out. He said sunlight is good for babies, so he took Zaniel out for a walk,” Elmy said as she sat at the dining table.“That’s true,” Sebastian replied before sitting down after Amelia took their baby from him. He faced the camera, allowing Elmy to see his face more clearly. Sebastian looked tanner than before, and he had also gained some weight.“Did you gain weight?” Elmy asked.“Yeah, Amelia won’t let me eat too little. She really spoils me and our baby,” Sebastian said cheerfully.Elmy smiled widely. That was good news. It seemed like Sebastian’s decision to separate from his parents had been the right one. He looked truly happy now with his little family, even if they were far away from the city.“So when are you finally going to tell me your address, huh?”“Soon. Maybe after Zaniel is old e

    “At last, my grandson is coming home,” Isabella said excitedly, making Elmy lower her head weakly in front of Zaniel’s incubator. Her hands tightly gripped the hem of her pale yellow dress until it wrinkled.The doctor said Zaniel was healthy now. He was finally allowed to go home. That was good news. Wasn’t this what Elmy had been hoping for all this time? Zaniel returning to her arms. But at this moment, why did she feel scared? Why did something feel so heavy in her chest as she watched the doctor lift Zaniel into his arms?Zaniel’s face was slightly red. He squirmed with his eyes open. His soft cries made Elmy bite her lip, trying to hold back the emotions swelling inside her chest. After an entire month, she could finally hear Zaniel cry.Before this, Zaniel used to cry silently. But now, the baby was truly healthy. His tiny clenched fists moved weakly. Elmy felt like reaching for him, but strangely, her body froze instead. Her shoulders tensed when the doctor brought Zaniel clos

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   219. The One Thing I Couldn’t Give

    Almost every day, Elmy did the same thing that had slowly become part of her routine—going to the hospital. The doctors, nurses, even the gardeners at the Kensley family hospital had all become familiar with her by now.They knew Elmy’s visiting schedule by heart. Ten in the morning. The NICU room, where Zaniel was still staying inside an incubator. Today, she returned to the same place again, visiting the tiny baby who had finally started responding to her voice.Zaniel’s little body had started filling out. The doctor said his progress was remarkably fast. Even though he was only getting nutrition from formula milk, Elmy couldn’t complain. As long as she still couldn’t breastfeed him, then maybe this was something Zaniel would have to live with for now.It was heartbreaking.“I think we need to talk, Mrs. Elmy. Could you come to my office?” the doctor suddenly said from behind her.Elmy followed him into the room. The doctor let out a long sigh before pulling out several sheets of p

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   218. A Mother’s Breaking Heart

    “I’m going to take leave as soon as possible.” Zayne flipped through the documents in his hands before looking over at Gion. “Let Mr. Tiano handle the rest. I can’t ignore Elmy’s condition right now.”Gion, who stood across from him, simply nodded. He didn’t protest or object to Zayne’s decision. Zayne had already made up his mind from the start. Once he finished taking care of a few important matters, he would hand everything over to Mr. Tiano and focus entirely on Elmy and their baby.Just one more month, Zayne thought before Zaniel could finally come home with them.That wasn’t a long time. Maybe. They just needed patience, and maybe he needed to comfort Elmy more often. She looked disappointed in herself now. Knowing their baby was born premature and that she still couldn’t hold him had caused her condition, which had been improving, to worsen again.She was on complete bed rest at the hospital. While Zayne handled work at the office, he entrusted everything to Isabella and Dean.

    Elmy didn’t know whether she should feel happy or not right now. Beneath the beautiful wedding gown she was wearing, she felt like she was dressed in a prisoner’s uniform, waiting to be executed. The sparkle of the beads sewn into the dress felt like it was mocking her. The bouquet in her hands fel

    Sunny looked at the food she had cooked with pride. She picked up her phone and took a picture of it. Smiling, she sent it to Ford.“You promised you’d come home early today.” she typed, adding a teary-eyed emoji. Then she sent another message. “I cooked for you.”Not long after, Ford replied. “I’l

    “Zayne, you need to see this message,” Gion said.Hearing that, Zayne—who had been rubbing his temples—immediately snatched the phone from Gion’s hand. He read the message Elmy had sent from someone else’s number over and over again.Wait.He wasn’t reading this wrong, right?Zayne’s eyes scanned t

    “Why is he here?”Dean shrugged. “I don’t know either.”“How did he even get in? Didn’t my mom forbid him from coming into this house?” Elmy asked, biting her nail anxiously.“Mrs. Isabella was the one who let him in,” Dean replied, leaving Elmy stunned. What was her mo
