All Chapters of Secret affair with the billionaire : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

~ Helen's POV ~I regained consciousness slowly. The world came back to me in fragments of light, warmth, the scent of clean sheets and the first thing I saw was Sebastian’s face hovering over mine.“Easy, easy,” he said softly, his voice laced with both relief and concern.His eyes looked like they’d been waiting for eternity watching, worrying, hoping. There was a softness in them, a fear barely concealed behind his usual calm.I tried to raise myself to sit, but my legs didn’t respond. Panic flared in my chest.“I said easy,” he repeated more firmly.He pulled the sheets back and gently began massaging my legs. His touch was surprisingly tender. Bit by bit, sensation returned. My legs slowly came alive. I flexed my toes slightly, relieved that I could feel them again.Then I realized something….I wasn’t wearing my dress. I was wrapped in a soft, white towel instead.My heart skipped.Did he…?Flashes of the car… our intimacy… the way I’d cried out, begged, collapsed... it all came

~ Sebastian’s POV ~I didn’t see Helen before I left for work this morning. That was unusual.But then again, maybe it wasn’t.The way her face dropped earlier when she asked about the meeting. I knew she felt disappointed. I saw it in her eyes. She was trying hard to keep her composure, but I could read the hurt beneath her silence.Was she truly expecting to attend a professional meeting? With me? With the event planning team?That's way above imagination.I sighed as I leaned back in my office chair, running a hand over my jaw.The meeting didn’t exist. I made it up. I just needed a reason to be with her, to have time alone with her without anyone raising an eyebrow. I didn’t know how else to justify it. I didn’t think it would mean that much to her.But apparently, it did.She looked like she felt... used. And in some ways, maybe she was. Not intentionally, but it doesn’t change the fact that I crossed a line with her yesterday.I needed to make it up to her. Not just for the lie,

~ Helen’s POV ~Evening arrived faster than I expected. The sun had begun its slow descent, casting a golden hue over the horizon as I sat by my window, staring out in quiet thought.I had finished my work for the day by lunchtime. But even after the physical work ended, my mind hadn’t found much rest.Mena didn’t come down for breakfast, which meant I had to stay on alert, waiting and watching for when she might emerge from her room. Lisa had offered to check on her, but I stopped her. I didn’t want her to go through what I did this morning. That sharp, biting yell was still ringing faintly in my ears.Eventually, Mena came out of her room around lunchtime, dressed elegantly as usual. She passed through the living hall like royalty, barely glancing at anyone. The moment she disappeared from sight, I ascended the stairs, cleaning materials in hand, and headed straight to her room.To my surprise, her room wasn’t as messy as usual. It only took me a short while to tidy it up, which was

~ Helen's POV ~Daylight kissed my skin, gently waking me to its soft glow. The morning sun was already high in the sky—too high. A sudden sense of panic jolted through me. I reached out for my phone on the bedside table and tapped the screen.Shit.It was already past 7 a.m.Why did I sleep so much?My heart raced. I scrambled out of bed and hurried into the bathroom. I took a quick bath, barely giving the water time to warm up, then rushed back out and slipped into my work clothes. I didn’t even get the chance to arrange my bed or do the usual tidying.Throwing my hair into a loose bun, I flew out of the cottage and sprinted toward the mansion.Without a second thought, I climbed the stairs straight to Sebastian’s room. I hesitated briefly, then knocked on the door.No response.I twisted the handle and stepped in quietly.The room was void of his presence.He must have gone to the gym already.I let out a sigh and walked into his closet. I pulled out a crisp black suit, a white dre

~ Helen's POV ~Evening settled in, cloaking the mansion in a cool, gentle breeze that made everything feel soft and still almost like the world was holding its breath. The trees swayed faintly outside the window, and the hush of the coming night brought with it a strange kind of electricity.The kind that made my heart flutter with anticipation.I remembered every scene from the romance movies I’d watched earlier. The glances, the timing, the way love could be spoken without words. I wasn’t just ready, I was determined. Tonight, I’d show him how sorry I was. Tonight, I’d give him my all.I waited eagerly for his arrival.And then I heard it…the sound of the car engine, then the doors, then footsteps.He was home.Lisa and I stood by the doorway as he walked in. He looked tired, composed, yet still entirely in control, as always. My breath caught as he glanced in my direction.“Welcome, sir,” I greeted, trying to keep my voice steady.He nodded gently and walked past us, heading up th
