BILLIONAIRE HIDDEN HEIR Chapter 4: Shadows From The Past
Jack’s POVI waited at the bottom of the staircase, my phone in hand, pretending to check emails. I could hear the soft click of Stella’s heels as she descended the steps, each sound like a quiet drumbeat in my ears. I told myself I wouldn’t look up. I wouldn’t care. She was just a woman. A woman I had married for convenience.Then I looked.My breath caught in my chest as I raised my head and saw her.Stella stood there, the red silk dress hugging every curve, the slit at the side revealing just enough to make me shift uncomfortably. Her blonde hair fell in soft waves over her shoulders, and the way the dress shimmered under the lights made her look like something out of a dream.My heart gave a jolt—just a quick, traitorous beat—but I quickly masked it with indifference. I cleared my throat and looked away, focusing back on my phone even though my mind was no longer on work.“Let’s go. We’re late,” I muttered.I didn’t wait to see if she followed. I didn’t trust myself to look at he

Stella’s POVMorning light crept through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold. I blinked the sleep from my eyes, taking a moment to gather my bearings. The memory of last night—the text message, the suspicions, the storm of questions—still lingered like a shadow. But as I sat up and ran a hand through my hair, my thoughts went to Lily.Quietly, I padded down the hall to her room, pushing the door open just a crack. My steps faltered when I saw the scene before me.Jack was there.He was lying beside Lily, sound asleep, one arm protectively curled near her. His face, usually hard and sharp like chiseled marble, was softened by sleep. He looked… peaceful. For a moment, I couldn’t move. The sight of him like this—so unguarded, so unlike the man I knew—tugged at something inside me.Why is my heart beating like this?I inched closer, my curiosity outweighing my better judgment. My eyes roamed over him, lingering on the strong lines of his jaw, the faint stubble brushing his skin,

Stella’s POVThe soft glow of the nightlight painted Lily’s face in shades of gold and shadow. I sat beside her, my fingers brushing against the thin blanket tucked under her chin. Her breathing was steady, peaceful, her small body rising and falling in sleep. She looked so fragile yet so full of life—a contradiction I couldn’t make sense of, much like everything else in my world.A sudden beep echoed in the quiet.I flinched. My phone, a small intruder breaking into my moment of peace. It was the reminder I could never forget.Medicine time.Carefully, I stood and slipped out of the room, my footsteps almost soundless as I made my way to my bedroom. I didn’t need the light. I knew where they were. The little white bottle sat on my nightstand, the pills rattling softly as I poured them into my palm. I stared at them—two tiny capsules that somehow held the weight of my mortality.Heart cancer.I’d replayed the diagnosis in my mind a thousand times. “A rare and aggressive condition,” th

Stella POVThe fluorescent lights in the hospital waiting room buzzed faintly, an eerie hum that seemed to echo my racing thoughts. I sat on the edge of one of the stiff, cold chairs, my hands clenched in my lap, twisting my wedding ring until my fingers ached. Across the room, Jack leaned against the wall, arms crossed, his expression carved from stone.Even now, even in the middle of this crisis, he looked unshakable. But I knew better.To Jack, Lily was his world, his everything and would do anything to keep her happy but in this case, he was helpless. Even his money couldn’t do much for him. “Any word?” I asked, my voice cutting through the silence.“Not yet,” he replied, barely sparing me a glance. His gaze remained fixed on the double doors to the emergency room, his jaw tight.I swallowed hard, trying to push past the tension coiling in my chest. I didn’t know what else to say. My hands itched to reach for him, to offer some comfort, but that wasn’t what we did. Not us. Our re
