KIRA POV

Two hours later, Kira was sitting in a different courtroom on the third floor facing an entirely different opponent. Today has been a freaking stressful day.

The New York City Health Department.

This one made her more nervous than the Vanessa case. Vanessa was just one person with a good lawyer. The Health Department was a government agency with resources, legal precedents, and immunity protections that made them almost impossible to sue successfully.

I don't know why it's so hard to leave a comment sometimes. Congratulations Kira and Adrian. Not much but something. Watch it that heifer's not finished with her dumb ass. Check to see who's backing her and go after the doctor for falsifying medical records Adrian.

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 233

    Kira's POV"No. No, I don't want to go." Lily's head turned weakly against the pillow, her voice thin and frightened."Lily?" Kira leaned closer, her hand tightening around her daughter's. "Baby, I'm here. Mummy's here.""Mummy, what's wrong? Is she okay?" Ethan had gone rigid beside the bed, his eyes wide with fear, still holding tight to Lily's other hand."She's dreaming, sweetheart. It's okay." Kira didn't fully believe her own words, but she kept her voice steady for his sake."Should we call the nurse?" Ethan asked, already looking toward the door."Not yet, baby. Let's see if she settles."Adrian pushed off the wall, moving closer, his eyes fixed on Lily's face with an intensity that hadn't been there a moment ago."No, no." Lily's brow furrowed deeper, her fingers twitching against the sheets. "Unc... uncle...""Uncle who, baby?" Kira's heart climbed into her throat. "Who are you talking about?""Uncle Marcus." The words came out slurred, half formed. "Uncle Marcus."Kira froz

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 232

    Kira's POV "Ethan." Kira crossed the corridor in a few quick strides, kneeling in front of him. "Baby, what are you doing here? I told Alyssa to make sure you stay at home." "I wanted to see her." His voice wobbled as his chin trembled despite how hard he was clearly trying to hold himself together. "Nobody would tell me anything, mummy. Is she okay? Is Lily okay?" "I'm sorry, Kira." Alyssa hovered a step behind him, phone still clutched in one hand. "He wouldn't stop asking, even when I went to pick up your clothes that you asked me to get for you, he kept saying he wanted to come and your parent said I should take him.” “I’ve tried calling you to ask first but your number wasn’t connecting, really sorry I just thought it might be worse to keep him in the dark." "Ohh, it’s fine." Kira cupped Ethan's face in both hands, forcing her own voice to stay steady. "She's going to be okay. I promise you, baby." Ethan's arms wrapped around her neck before she'd finished the sentence, hold

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 231

    Kira's POV "Are you Lily's mother?" The woman shifted her weight, fingers twisting the strap of her bag. "Yes." Kira stood, crossing to the doorway. "I'm Kira. This is Adrian, Lily's father." "I'm Ms. Patterson. I'm her group guide at the academy." She glanced between them, her composure faltering, eyes darting toward the closed door behind Kira as if she could sense whose room it was. "I'm so sorry about what happened to her. I should have known sooner that she wasn't on the bus." "How does a school lose track of a student for that long?" Kira's voice came out sharper than she intended, exhaustion bleeding through every word. "I know it sounds unforgivable. The bus manifest gets checked at departure, but with forty students and three chaperones, if someone tells a friend they're staying behind, it doesn't always get flagged in time." "What do you know?" Adrian's voice cut through gently but firmly, no patience left for pleasantries. "Her roommate came to me this morning. She sa

    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

    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 g
