All Chapters of Hiding The Billionaire's Son : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

Samantha’s POVI take a deep breath, forcing a smile as I step into the ballroom. No one must see how nervous I am. Tonight, Damian will be named CEO of Sterling Empire… a position long expected of him, though marrying me, a lowborn wife, nearly cost him everything.I sip a glass of water to steady myself and search for him. We were supposed to enter together, but his secretary insisted otherwise. It’s not unusual to be pushed aside, but I endure it… for his sake. And it’s fine. Because tonight… I also have something good to share with Damian.Then I see him. Damian Sterling, radiant in a suit chosen by his mother, with a woman clinging to his arm. He smiles at her, laughs with her, and lets her touch him… things he never allows me in public.I feel a pang in my chest as I watch them giggle.“Keep it together, Samantha,” I whisper to myself. “Damian isn’t heartless,” I remind myself. “He’ll never betray you.”I trust my husband, I always have. Behind closed doors, he shows me love. Wh

Samantha’s POVAs if Georgia looking down on me isn’t enough, even Victoria makes a mockery of my marriage with Damian. All I’ve ever wanted was to live with the man I love, to be accepted for who I am. But with the Sterlings, such things are impossible.“Even my husband’s secretary doesn’t acknowledge me as his wife. I’ve been married to Damian for two years now, and they still call me Miss Gregory,” I sob, burying my face in my palms on the way back to the Sterling mansion.It’s already past seven in the evening when I arrive, and the maids don’t even bother to greet me, like always. Everyone treats me like air in this cold mansion… or shall I say a prison I willingly stepped into the day I married Damian.It was painful at first, but I grew numb. The pain was once unbearable, but I learned to endure it. I came here expecting worse, knowing fully well what could happen. I chose to spare my heart and accept every humiliation from his family… believing it was all worth it. Believing h

Damian’s POV“... Let’s divorce.”My mind went blank for a moment, then her words echoed in my head. My eyes widened in disbelief, unable to process that those cold, emotionless words had come from Samantha’s lips.Samantha has always been obedient to me. She listens, she follows, she endures. So why now? Why is she suddenly asking for divorce?“What did you say?” I feel the crease on my forehead deepening as I watch her click her tongue in front of me. “You want a divorce? Why, Samantha?”She’s always the one who wants to work out things between us. So, why now? In the past, I also thought of giving up, but I didn’t… Because she begs me to fight alongside her. And now she’s giving up just like that?“Why, you ask? Seriously, Damian. You’re still asking me that?” she snaps, frustration flashing across her face.I just realized her eyes were swollen and she had dark circles around them.… Did she stay up and cry all night?Is it because I ignored her at the party again? But she should a

"Excuse me. I just need to speak with Damian privately.""Privately." Victoria repeats, examining her nails.Georgia's expression doesn't change. "Damian is a very busy man, Samantha. Busy men don't have time for women they've already moved past.""I'm asking for ten minutes.""You signed those papers," Victoria says, tilting her head. "What exactly makes you think you still have access to anything in this building? Or to him?""Look, I just need to-""Need." Georgia scoffs. "You always needed something, didn't you? That was always the problem with you.""It's very important, and it will only take a few minutes. Let me speak with him.""Oh, I'm sure it feels important to you. You always think everything about yourself is so terribly important."Victoria leans close to Georgia and murmurs something I can't hear. Georgia glances at her, then back at me, and takes out her phone. She dials and puts it on speaker.My heart kicks. It has to be Damian, right?"Ma'am." Marcus's voice, and my
