《A New Babysitter and the Billionaire Widower》全部章節：第 111 章 - 第 120 章

The sterile smell of the hospital always gave me a pang in my stomach. It wasn't exactly fear, but a physical memory that my body seemed to hold onto, even years after beating cancer. There's a kind of fear after going through something like that disease that never truly goes away. It stays hidden deep down, just asleep.Waiting for the moment it can come back and this time consume you entirely.Because no one can give you that guarantee, that at some point it won't return.I squeeze my bag against my chest and walk down the white hallway to the hematology department, taking a deep breath. The soft sound of my boots' low heels echoes on the floor as I try to convince myself it's just another routine, just another check-up.

The house was strangely silent when I walked in. My footsteps echoed through the marble hallway, the soft light from the lamps reflecting on the expensive paintings hanging on the wall. So cold… so perfect.I let out the air in a heavy sigh. I hated this feeling of walking into a place where no one really… lived.After dropping my coat on the stairs, I looked up. Light was coming from the second floor, specifically from my father's study. It was Saturday night, and he would certainly be there — as always, a book in his hands, a glass of wine beside him, the fireplace lit.Should I go up? Should I open a door after years of conversations limited to "how is school" and "you have to be a Calahan man"?

Noah's invitation caught me off guard.The only ball I had ever attended was my graduation party. Even though I am blessed and part of a wealthy family with good financial resources, we weren't part of Spanish high society. As the CEO of a large company, my father was sometimes invited to these events, but I never attended because I was too young.Noah's family, however, breathes this life.My quick research showed me that their money is what we call "old money" — accumulated over generations — and they circulate among the large hospital they own, a hotel chain, and other real estate investments. Always arranging marriages between heirs from families of the same reality.Now,

I considered for a few minutes not getting out of the car, my nerves trembling and wondering if this was sheer madness. Noah is my only friend in this city — since I arrived here, even though I have other classmates at university, he remains the closest person to me.And having support when you're alone makes all the difference.It was impossible not to be impressed.The polished marble steps reflected the light from the gigantic chandelier above our heads, a tangle of crystals that sparkled like little stars trapped in gold. Every detail of the Calahan mansion seemed straight out of an architecture magazine: the Greek columns, the walls with golden frames and carefully positioned works of art, as if each one had a whispered story hidden within the rooms.I walked beside Noah, trying not to appear overly fascinated, though inside I felt the same wonder as a child in a candy shop. He walked with calm steps, his impeccable tuxedo, his hand holding the wine glass with light firmness as i

The morning sun floods the room through the linen curtains, tingeing everything with a soft golden hue. I feel Giulia's body relaxed beside me, her peaceful breathing in contrast to the silent confusion occupying my mind. I think about last night and how everything seemed… right.I lean in slowly, watching her serene face, her long eyelashes resting on her cheeks. I can't resist the impulse to move closer and brush my lips against hers. She sighs, stirring slightly before opening her eyes with a sleepy smile."Good morning," I murmur against her skin."Good morning," she replies, her voice hoarse, her hand rising to caress my face. "So… do you regret it?"My forehead furrows, and I laugh softly, pulling back just enough to look into her brown eyes."Giulia… I would never regret something like that. Never."She blushes and looks away, but I pull her chin back toward me and place another soft kiss on her lips. I couldn't d
