Chapter 33: Therapy Session

last update Veröffentlichungsdatum: 25.12.2025 05:28:11

Noah sat in Dr. Voss's waiting room, knee bouncing. The chair was leather. Expensive. Probably meant to be calming. It wasn't working.

A clock ticked on the wall. Each second loud in the quiet space. He checked his phone. No messages. He'd texted Leighton twice yesterday. Both from a new number. Both delivered. Both ignored.

She'd blocked him again.

Good. That's what he deserved.

The door opened. Dr. Voss stood there. Mid-fifties. Glasses. Kind eyes that saw too much.

"Noah. Come in."

  • Under His Billionaire Roof   Chapter 112: Five Years Later

    "Mommy, Tristan stole my dinosaur!"Liam's voice hit me before I made it down the stairs. I was already late for a client call. Already juggling my phone and coffee and the presentation deck I'd printed last night."Did not!" Tristan yelled back. "It's mine!"I walked into the kitchen. Found both boys on the floor. Wrestling over a plastic T-Rex. Breakfast forgotten. Milk spilled across the table. Cheerios scattered like confetti."Both of you. Stop." My voice came out sharper than I meant. They froze. Looked up at me with identical guilty expressions. Noah's dark eyes. My nose. Five years old and already masters of manipulation."He started it," they said in unison.I set my coffee down. Picked up the dinosaur. "This goes in timeout. You both go eat breakfast. Now.""But Mom...""Now."They scrambled to the table. I cleaned up the milk. Checked my phone. The client call started in three minutes. I wasn't ready. Wasn't even close to ready."Need help?" Noah appeared in the doorway. Su

  • Under His Billionaire Roof   Chapter 111: The Birth

    "I need you to push."Dr. Silva's voice cut through the fog. I couldn't think. Couldn't breathe. The pain was everywhere. Swallowing me whole."I can't." My voice came out broken. Weak."Yes you can." Noah's hand gripped mine. Too tight. Hurting me. I didn't tell him to stop. "Look at me, Leigh. Look at me."I turned my head. Found his eyes. Terrified. But steady."You can do this," he said. "You're the strongest person I know."Another contraction hit. Ripped through my body. I screamed. Couldn't help it. The sound tore out of me."That's it," Dr. Silva said. "Channel that. Push through it. Baby A is right there."I pushed. Used every ounce of strength I had left. My body felt like it was splitting apart. Breaking. Dying."Good. Again. One more big push."I bore down. Pushed harder. Felt something give. Felt pressure release.Then I heard it. A cry. Small. Angry. Perfect."Baby A is here," Dr. Silva announced. "It's a boy."I collapsed back against the pillows. Sobbing. Shaking. A nu

  • Under His Billionaire Roof   Chapter 110: Maya's Moment

    "Please tell me you didn't fire me."Maya's voice cracked through the phone. Leighton sat up in bed. Too fast. Her head spun. She steadied herself against the headboard."What? Why would I fire you?""Because I changed three slides. Added a transition you didn't approve. Used the alternate color palette on the packaging mockups."Leighton's heart pounded. The Meridian presentation had been two hours ago. She'd been lying in bed. Trying not to think about it. Failing completely."How did it go?" she asked quietly."I don't know. They didn't say much. Just asked questions. Took notes. Robert said they'd be in touch.""That's it?""That's it. I'm so sorry. I know you wanted to be there. I know I probably messed everything up.""Maya. Stop. Tell me exactly what happened."Maya took a shaky breath. Started talking. Described walking into the boardroom. Fifteen executives. All watching her. All waiting."I was terrified. My hands were shaking so bad I almost dropped the remote. But then I r

  • Under His Billionaire Roof   Chapter 109: The Breaking Point

    "I told you to stay in bed."Noah's voice shook. He lifted Leighton into his arms. She was too weak to argue. Blood soaked through her clothes. Through his shirt where he held her."I'm sorry," she whispered."Don't talk. Just hold on."He carried her to the car. Drove faster than he should. Ran red lights. She pressed her hand to her stomach. Felt nothing. No movement. Too early for movement. But the silence felt wrong anyway.The ER took her immediately this time. No waiting. Straight to a room. Monitors. IVs. Dr. Silva appeared within minutes."What happened?" Her voice was sharp. Controlled anger."She got out of bed," Noah said. "Went to her office. Worked for two hours."Dr. Silva's jaw tightened. She didn't look at Leighton. Just started the ultrasound.The screen lit up. Two shapes. Leighton held her breath."Baby A. Heartbeat present." Dr. Silva moved the wand. "Baby B. Also present."Leighton started crying. Relief so intense it hurt."You're lucky," Dr. Silva said. Not kind

  • Under His Billionaire Roof   Chapter 108: Complications

    "There's blood."Leighton stared at the tissue. Pink. Faint. But definitely blood.Dr. Silva's face went serious. "How much?""Just spotting. Not a lot.""Any cramping?""Some. But I've had cramping since I found out I was pregnant.""This is different?"Leighton hesitated. "Maybe. Sharper. Lower."Dr. Silva moved fast. Called for an ultrasound machine. A nurse wheeled it in. The room suddenly felt crowded. Urgent.Noah burst through the door. Breathless. "What's happening?""Possible threatened miscarriage," Dr. Silva said. "We're checking now."The color drained from Noah's face. He grabbed Leighton's hand. Squeezed so hard it hurt.Cold gel on her stomach. The wand pressing. Dr. Silva's eyes on the screen. Seconds felt like hours."There." Dr. Silva pointed. "Baby A. Heartbeat strong."Leighton couldn't breathe."And Baby B. Also strong. Both measuring on track.""Then what's wrong?" Noah asked."Could be implantation spotting. Could be subchorionic hematoma. Small bleed between th

  • Under His Billionaire Roof   Chapter 107: Telling Chloe

    "You're acting weird."Chloe stood in the doorway. Emma on her hip. Her eyes narrowed at Leighton and Noah sitting on the couch. Too close. Too tense."We're not weird," Leighton said."You texted me to come over immediately. On a Thursday afternoon. You're definitely weird."Noah stood. "Come in. Sit down.""Now I'm really worried." But Chloe came inside. Set Emma in her carrier. The baby gurgled. Happy. Oblivious.Chloe sat across from them. Arms crossed. "What's going on? Is someone dying? Are you dying?""Nobody's dying," Leighton said."Then what?"Leighton looked at Noah. He nodded. She took a breath."I'm pregnant."Chloe's mouth fell open. "What?""Pregnant. Eight weeks.""Oh my God." Chloe's hands flew to her mouth. "Oh my God. You're pregnant?""Yes."Chloe launched herself across the coffee table. Grabbed Leighton. Hugged her so tight it hurt. "I'm going to be an aunt. Emma's going to have a cousin. This is amazing. Why do you look terrified? You should be happy.""There's

His arm was draped over her waist, heavy and warm.For a moment, everything felt right. Perfect.Then he stirred beside her.His arm tensed. Withdrew. The mattress shifted as he sat
