Zayne never expected to end up drinking with Sebastian at a bar in Whistler. After deciding to head back on his own, he called Sebastian and asked him out for a drink. He had a good enough reason—he needed to vent about Dennis.

That damn model. How the hell did he know my marriage is about to end?

Zayne downed his whiskey in one gulp, eyes shifting to Sebastian, who was casually munching on peanuts while checking out the girls hanging around nearby.

“You’re hiding something from me, Bastian?”

  • 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

    “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.

    “I never thought we’d end up talking like this,” Sunny said.After telling Ford and Zayne to leave the room, Elmy had no choice but to accept Sunny’s request to talk to her alone.Even though she clearly didn’t want to, Elmy still tried to listen to every word Sunny said.Sunny gently touched Elmy’s arm. But Elmy quickly brushed her hand away, making Sunny smile bitterly.“I know you’re still upset with me after everything I did. Especially now that I suddenly showed up again after disappearing for so long,” she explained.Elmy stayed silent.“El, I’m sorry for everything. For all the horrible things I’ve done,” Sunny said softly.Her eyes were glossy, but she didn’t cry. Still, from the strain in her voice, Elmy could tell she was doing everything she could to hold herself together.“After I left you guys... my life fell apart,” she admitted quietly. “Maybe I really deserve it.”Elmy let out a mocking scoff. “More like those are problems you created yourself.”Sunny clasped her tremb

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   216. The Truth We Hide

    “I already told the doctor treating me not to reveal my identity to Elmy.” Dante looked at Zayne for a moment before giving him a faint smile. “You can relax, Zayne.”“That’s exactly why I can’t relax, Dante. It feels like I’m hiding something huge from her,” Zayne said, making Dante, who was sitting beside him, turn with a displeased look. He shook his head and gripped Zayne’s hand tightly.“Don’t even think about telling her, Zayne. I know Elmy won’t like it. Worse... she might end up hating you too for letting me help her.”Just imagining it made Zayne uneasy. Still, he convinced himself Elmy wouldn’t be that cruel to him. He did this for her safety. For her life. Elmy would understand, he told himself.“Elmy already hates me anyway, Zayne. So please... keep your mouth shut. It’s better this way,” Dante said resignedly.Hearing that filled Zayne with overwhelming guilt. Back then, he used to look down on Dante for not taking responsibility for Elmy. But now, this man had become the

    Beautiful?Elmy walked over to the mirror and cupped her face with both hands. Oh God—her cheeks were as red as a boiled crab, and… she touched her swollen lips, still sore from where Zayne had bitten them. She quickly turned away, embarrassed by her own reflection.It felt like they had kissed jus

    The sound of shattering glass by the door startled them. Sunny and Zayne froze, while Elmy bolted away, leaving the broken mug behind. Zayne turned, ready to chase after her, but Sunny grabbed his arm with both hands.“Zayne, don’t go,” Sunny whispered. Her eyes pleaded as she stepped closer, leani

    “Look, this is my son-in-law!” Sunny’s father shouted loudly and proudly. Hearing that, Elmy glanced at Zayne’s hand holding hers and immediately pulled away. Zayne shot her a sharp look, but Elmy didn’t care. She stepped back.Sunny’s father grabbed Zayne by the shoulders and shook him. “Zayne! He

    Elmy’s eyes widened. Zayne’s hand, which had been resting on her cheek, slid to the back of her neck, gently pulling her closer until their lips pressed together. His tongue brushed against hers, slow and soft. Elmy touched his arm, then his chest, before pushing him away.Her breath came in short,
