《Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret》全部章節：第 101 章 - 第 110 章

Quinn’s POVMonday morning arrived far too quickly.I had spent the entire weekend pretending I had somewhere better to be, even though I had barely left Laura’s side. She had warmed my bed more times than I cared to count, and every time I woke up with her beside me, something inside my chest loosened.I hadn’t felt this kind of peace in a long time.Which was precisely why I was beginning to hate Monday already.The meeting with Anto was necessary. I knew that. I had arranged it for a reason, even if Laura still had no idea what that reason was. But every time I looked at her, I found myself questioning whether I should postpone the entire damn thing and spend the day somewhere far less complicated.Like my bedroom.Laura stood in the living room, checking herself in the mirror one last time. She wore a fitted white shirt tucked into a black skirt, with a tailored jacket sitting neatly over her shoulders. It was professional enough for a business meeting.Unfortunately, it was also

Laura’s POVThe decision felt enormous.Everyone was staring at me, waiting for an answer, but my mouth refused to cooperate. I should say something. I definitely had to say something. Yet every time I tried to gather my thoughts, another question appeared and pushed the first one aside.What if I made the wrong decision?What if accepting Anto’s offer turned out to be one of the best things that could happen to Titan Media? What if it opened doors I hadn't even imagined? What if refusing it meant I was throwing away an opportunity I might never get again?And what if accepting it was exactly what Anto wanted?There were simply too many what-ifs running through my head.Before I could force myself to speak, a calm, familiar hand settled around my shoulders.“Perhaps we should give her some time to think about this,” Quinn said, his voice steady beside me.I looked up at him.He wasn't looking at Anto anymore.He was looking at me.Anto seemed to consider that for a moment before givin

Quinn’s POVTwo days later, I was beginning to suspect that every answer we found only managed to create three more questions.I sat behind my desk, staring at Devon across from me while he leaned back in his chair like he had absolutely no idea that my patience was hanging by a thread.“So,” I said, folding my hands together. “Tell me what you know.”Devon blinked. “About what?”I stared at him.He grinned.“Right. Sorry. The kidnapping investigation.”“I'm glad we're on the same page.”He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. “I've been talking to Elena.”I immediately narrowed my eyes.“Just talking?”“Talking. Going out. Eating. Watching her glare at me while I annoy her. Normal things.”“Have you learned anything useful?”“Not exactly.”My jaw tightened.Devon lifted both hands. “I'm getting there.”“You've been getting there for weeks.”“And Rome wasn't built in a day.”“Don't compare my investigation to the Roman Empire.”“Fine. The empire was significantly less comp

Quinn’s POVI had never seen Laura this upset.She had gotten pissed at me more than once since we had met. I had seen her angry, frustrated, annoyed, and even downright furious, but this was different. This wasn't the sharp irritation she usually threw at me before eventually cooling down. This was something deeper, something that had settled beneath her skin and made her entire body seem tense.I had already known she didn't have a good relationship with her father. The first time I met George, I could practically feel the resentment radiating from Laura whenever he spoke. But tonight, it was as if he had deliberately picked at every wound he knew she had.And I couldn't understand why.I walked back into the dining room and pulled out my chair, dropping into it heavily. Eliza was still seated beside George, looking considerably more uncomfortable than she had earlier.“Did you try to calm her down?” George asked, reaching for his glass as though we hadn't just watched his daughter

Laura's POVI hadn't spoken to my father all day.I didn't intend to.As far as I was concerned, the sooner this wedding was over, the sooner I could get back to my real life. My lawyers could handle every ridiculous demand he planned to make. If he truly believed he was entitled to my earnings, he could argue that in court instead of pretending to be a loving father.That bridge had burned years ago.Today's ceremony wasn't going to rebuild it.The wedding was exactly what I expected.Grand.Extravagant.Every corner of the estate overflowed with white flowers, glittering chandeliers, and decorations expensive enough to buy a small house. Famous producers, actors, politicians, musicians, and business executives filled nearly every seat. Cameras flashed every few seconds, capturing smiles that felt rehearsed and laughter that sounded just a little too polished.Everything sparkled.Everything looked perfect.Everything felt fake.As I watched my father stand at the altar beside Eliza,
