KIRA POV

Kira stood in front of her closet, staring at the rows of dresses.

Her phone rang. She turned to look, it was Elijah.

She answered. “Hey.”

“Hey. Are you busy tonight?”

“Not really. Why?”

“I want to take you to dinner.”

Kira smiled. “What’s the occasion?”

“Do I need an occasion to take you out?”

“No. But you usually have one.”

Elijah laughed. “Fine. We’re celebrating your singlehood. Officially divorced as of today. That deserves a celebration.”

Kira laughed too. “A

Who else thinks it’s high time Kira gave herself a break and gives Elijah a chance, he’s so sweet🫠

Amazing number of contradictions . The rest sure is permanent but the hotel is temporary. So the CEO says. Elijah ‘rents’ the restaurant despite owning 3 restaurants. And to appease the whole bloody app business everything has to be repeated ad nauseum from everyone’s point of view. Crapoy

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 230

    Kira's POV"Ma'am, can you confirm you and Mr. Westbrook are back together?" A microphone shot very close towards her face in a split second."Is it true your daughter's accident is connected to your divorce?" Another voice, another camera shoving in from the opposite side.Kira froze, blinking against the flashbulbs still going off in rapid bursts, her mind still tangled around the words the doctor had just used, gap, memory, time and patience, and now this, cameras and questions crowding in like her daughter's condition was entertainment."Please." Her voice came out strained. "Please, our family needs space, can you give us that?""Just one comment, Ms. Ashford, is it true—""Are you and Mr. Westbrook back together, is that why—""I said please." She stepped back, colliding with Adrian's chest, and his arm came around her immediately, pulling her into him, angling his own body between her and the nearest camera."Back up," Adrian said, low and hard. "All of you. Now."They didn't b

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 229

    Kira's POV"Get in the car." Adrian was already moving with his keys dangling in his hands, jacket abandoned on the back of his chair."What did they say? Did they say anything else?" He asked, trying to confirm the situation."No they didn’t, just that it's urgent.” Kira answered. “Alright, get in."Kira ran beside him through the lobby, her tiny kitten heels clicking softly against the marble floor of the hotel, staff turning to watch as they passed, and she barely had the door shut before Adrian gunned the engine, tires screeching against the driveway as he pulled out onto the main road."Adrian, slow down—""I've got it, don’t worry."He wove between two slower cars, cutting across a lane change that drew a horn blast from somewhere behind them, his hands steady on the wheel despite the speed climbing on the dashboard. Seventy. Eighty. The city blurred past the windows, storefronts and pedestrians reduced to smears of color."Adrian, slow down—""I've got it."He blew through a

    Kira's POV"Elijah." Kira set her cup down, genuinely startled. "Hi. It's been a minute. What are you doing here?"He didn't answer right away, his eyes moving from her to Adrian and back again, something cold settling as his face looked like life had been physically drained out of it."Business meeting," he said finally. "Didn't expect to run into you. Either of you.""Small world," Adrian said, standing, his tone easy. "Elijah, come join us, there’s plenty of food.""Ohhh, no thanks.""You sure? There's more than enough.""I said no."The bluntness of it landed harder than it needed to, and Kira felt her spine straighten instinctively, an old defensiveness kicking in even though nothing about this should have surprised her."How have you been?" she asked anyway, trying to ease the awkwardness."Fine." He glanced at her plate, then back at her face, the look on his face unreadable in the look. "Didn't take you long.""Didn't take me long for what?""This." He gestured vaguely between

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 227

    Kira's POVKira stepped out of the elevator and into the private dining area where the breakfast is being served, the smell of fresh coffee and warm bread hitting her before she'd even reached the table. The room was quiet and literally empty this early, probably it’s just because it was private for just the both of them.It was just a few staff moving discreetly near the far wall, the morning light spilling rays of gold across white linens. Adrian stood as she approached, pulling out her chair before she could reach for it herself."I ordered a few things," he said. "Wasn't sure what you were in the mood for.""A few things meaning the entire menu?" Kira said as she turned her head around to see the entire table."Close enough."She sat, smoothing the gown beneath her, still faintly unsettled by how perfectly it fit, how the kitten heels hadn't pinched once on the walk down. He pushed her chair in gently before returning to his own seat across from her. The table was already crowded

    Kira's POV"Adrian?" Kira lowered the phone from her ear, still holding it loosely as Alyssa's voice buzzed faint and forgotten against her palm. "What are you doing with all these bags?""I got you some clothes." He lifted them slightly, like the answer should have been obvious. "And shoes. I wasn't sure what you'd want, so I got a few options.""A few options." Kira glanced at the sheer number of bags stacked against his arms. "Adrian, this looks like you bought out half the store.""Maybe half a floor.""Alyssa, I'll call you back." Kira ended the call without waiting for a response and crossed her arms, watching him shift the bags awkwardly against his chest. "You went shopping while I was asleep, that’s uhmmm….interesting. I guess.""You needed stuffs and I had time to kill.""You could have woken me.""You looked like you hadn't slept in days, Kira. I wasn't about to shake you awake just to ask if you preferred cotton or silk."She followed him back into the suite, and he set th

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 225

    Kira's POVRing. Ring. Ring.Kira jolted upright, disoriented, her hand fumbling for the phone before her eyes had even adjusted to the unfamiliar room. A ray of sunlight cut through a gap in the curtains, and for a moment she couldn't place where she was, the ceiling was too high, nothing about the room came as familiar."Hello?""Good morning, ma'am, I hope you had a splendid night." The voice on the other end was bright, professional. "We just wanted to confirm, would you like breakfast brought up to the penthouse, or would you prefer to come downstairs? We can arrange the VIP area for you and Mr. Westbrook.""Mr. Westbrook?" “Penthouse?” Kira sat up straighter, gripping the phone tighter, her stomach dropping at the sound of the name spoken so casually. "I'll come down. Thank you."She set the phone back in its cradle slowly, her mind still catching up to the room around her, the unfamiliar ceiling, the heavy curtains blocking out most of the morning light. Nothing about this bed
