BILLIONAIRES: Father or Son Chapter Ten
FLORA’S POV I had forgotten what it felt like to be free. For two days after I left the hospital, I stayed in bed, weighed down by the ache of losing my baby. That child had been my anchor, giving me the courage to finally stand up to the Kensingtons and ask for a divorce. But what hurt even more than the loss was Jayden blaming me for what happened. Since we left, he hadn’t stopped calling. At first, I answered a few times, hoping for—well, I don’t know what I was hoping for. Closure? An apology? But instead, Jayden just spewed his usual nonsense, giving me “chances” to come back and promising to “forget everything” if I did. When I didn’t respond, he switched tactics, sending increasingly threatening texts about how I would regret it if I didn’t take him up on his offer. The audacity was truly something else. How could he not see that he was only making everything worse? It was like he thought this was all just some negotiation and not my entire life falling apart. Last night

FLORA’S POV One thing about the Kensingtons—they believed money could buy anything. I had heard Lisette say it countless times: Everything and everyone has a price, if you know the right one. It was one of her many reasons for treating me like a temporary accessory rather than her son’s wife. To her, I wasn’t Flora, a person with feelings—I was a commodity her family had “purchased.” They never accepted that I had married Jayden for love. From day one, they had slapped the “gold digger” label on me. That’s why they never saw the divorce coming. As Lisette stood there with her two bodyguards, one of them holding a briefcase like we were in the middle of a corporate meeting, I exchanged glances with Sasha and Mom. What “deal” was she planning to offer? Curiosity got the better of me, so I gave Mom and Sasha a subtle look, telling them to stay calm. Then, I moved to the couch and sat down, facing Lisette. “Alright, let’s hear what you’ve got,” I said, trying to sound more casual

JAYDEN’S POV Melissa had called earlier, claiming my mother was in some kind of danger. Normally, I would brush off her dramatic tendencies, but something about the urgency in her voice unsettled me. I left the Businessmen’s Summit early, barely staying until the end. My mother could be over-the-top, but this sounded different—serious even. When I got home, no one could really explain what had happened to her. The servants only said she came back drenched and looking like she was about to pass out. The moment I walked into the living room, Melissa sprang to her feet and rushed over, wrapping her arms around me like I had been gone for months. “You’re home, sweetheart! How did it go?” she asked, her voice dripping with sweetness. I gently peeled her off me, as though she were something fragile and poisonous at the same time. I wasn’t in the mood for her right now. I was still too raw from everything with Flora. Melissa looked the part, no doubt—wealthy background, drop-dead go

ALEX’S POV Everyone at the Summit kept telling me how lucky I was. They were inspired by my success, even though I hadn’t made it early in life. Almost all the other businessmen wished they had my charisma. But what they didn’t know was that my life was a complete disaster behind the scenes. My son wouldn’t speak to me—probably wouldn’t even if it were the last thing he had to do before he died. Loyalty and love felt like distant concepts, slipping further away by the day. I couldn’t shake the feeling that it was only a matter of time before everything crumbled. I had spotted Jayden at the Summit earlier and made a mental note to talk to him before heading back to my room. But catching him was about as achievable as scaling Mount Everest barefoot. After the meeting, I tried to make a beeline for him, but I was intercepted by a group of admirers, eager to discuss business deals and corporate nonsense. By the time I escaped from their clutches, Jayden had vanished. No sign of him

ALEX’S POV I skimmed through the list of new applicants for my assistant position, but none of the resumes were doing it for me. It wasn’t that they weren’t qualified—it was more that I didn’t even know what I was looking for. My last assistant had played a significant role in driving a wedge between me and my ex-wife, and the one I just fired... well, let’s just say “inappropriate” is an understatement. Maybe it was time to hire a male assistant. At least that way, I could avoid any more scandals hanging over my head like a storm cloud. Sighing, I scrolled through the male candidates. Seemed like the safest bet for a fresh start. I had finally agreed with David’s advice to give relationships a break and stick to... Subs. He had talked to Jackson, the guy who apparently knew all the right “connections,” and I was still waiting for an update. I glanced at my wristwatch—an hour past closing time. Great. Exhaustion was settling in, and I still had files from the design department to so

FLORA’S POV “Good girl,” he said warmly, and to my utter disbelief, a strange sense of calm washed over me. He stepped out from behind his desk, moving toward me with deliberate ease. My heart pounded so loudly I was sure he could hear it. Was that a hint of a smile on his face? As he stopped in front of me, I caught the scent of his cologne—something expensive and intoxicating. He tilted my chin up, locking eyes with me. I silently repeated a mantra in my head: Stay calm. Don’t panic. And if he crosses the line, you’re out. But despite my mental pep talk, my pulse raced. “Do you know,” he said, his gaze sweeping over my face, “you have the finest shade of hazel eyes?” My heart skipped a beat. No one had ever commented on my eye color before, and as ridiculous as it sounded, his words made me feel... flattered. And a little off-balance. “I like that you didn’t put up so much effort for me,” he continued, his voice dropping an octave. “So demure, so subtle... and it’s fucking lov

ALEX’S POV Shit! The low purr of the engine filled the silence as I navigated through the evening traffic. The city lights blurred past like glowing embers against the dark skyline, but the real heat was coming from the awkward tension in the car. This had to be the most embarrassing situation I’ve ever landed myself in. Roleplay gone wrong! How did I end up disgracing myself in front of an employee? A new one, at that. What kind of image was this girl going to have of me—and my company—now? I felt awful for dragging her into something she knew nothing about. It was stupid of me to assume she was my Sub, and when she didn’t obey immediately, I had almost taken out my frustration on her. I could only imagine what she thought of me now. I stole a quick glance in her direction. She was calm, her head resting against the car window, but her silence was deafening. I refocused on the road, trying not to overthink it, but to be honest, I was definitely overthinking it. Does she think

JAYDEN’S POV I sat in my cousin’s bar, staring into my glass of whiskey, letting the alcohol slowly numb the frustration that had been eating at me for days. I was still in my work clothes, my tie loosened, and the last thing I wanted was to go home. Home didn’t feel like home anymore. All I got there was my mother’s nagging about pressing charges against Flora for supposedly stealing her jewelry. I had already told her a thousand times to drop it. Pressing charges would be a PR disaster, and honestly, it wasn’t worth it. Then there was Melissa. She had a new request every five minutes, each one more ridiculous than the last, and she blamed everything on her pregnancy hormones. I didn’t want to admit it, but my life had been spiraling out of control since Flora walked out. It felt like a part of me had gone missing, and what really pissed me off was how everyone else seemed to move on like nothing happened—except me. I had done everything in my power to get Flora to come back a

FLORA’S POV Alex left and didn’t return the entire day, leaving me alone to entertain Jayden. Or maybe, to face the chaos going on in my own mind. I had never seen Alex so uneasy, so off-balance, as I did this morning. He had always been the embodiment of control, sharp suits, unreadable expressions, power, and always ten steps ahead. But today, he looked like a man standing on thin ice, waiting for it to crack. His entire aura shifted the moment Jayden showed up. And it made me pity him. I didn’t know what I was feeling; maybe sadness, maybe guilt, maybe something else I didn’t have the language for. It was all tangled. One second, I felt nothing, and the next, it was everything at once. Anger. Shame. Jealousy. Confusion. Jayden’s arrival complicated everything. A few weeks ago, I might have basked in the drama of it all, maybe even felt vindicated. But now, all I saw was a boy broken, humbled, and so clearly lost. Things were about to get a lot messier. That much was clear. And f

ALEX’S POVDave’s house always looked like a never-ending scene from a frat-boy movie: loud music, too much sun, and always women in bikinis. Today was no different. He was in the pool with three blonde bombshells when I arrived. He always liked them blonde. His personal brand, I guess. I walked over and planted my fists on my hips, shaking my head.“Hey, buddy!” he called out, raising his drink with a grin. “Come join us! Give those CEO muscles a break, you look like you need it!”I exhaled sharply. “Tempting, but I’ll pass,” I muttered.Dave turned back to whisper something to the women beside him, probably something ridiculous. I didn’t wait. I turned on my heel and walked toward the house. I wasn’t in the mood for poolside comedy or small talk. Minutes later, he strolled into the kitchen, wrapped in a towel. He took one look at me, and without asking a single question, poured me a drink.“You good?” he finally asked, eyeing me.“What do you think?” I said through clenched teeth.H

ALEX’S POVThe silence that followed was so thick, it practically smothered the room. You could hear a pin drop. Jayden’s eyes darted between me and Flora, uncertainty all over his face. I stood there, dumbfounded. And Flora’s eyes had gone wide like someone had just dropped a live bomb in front of her.“It’s... It’s okay if you can’t let me stay,” Jayden said quickly, his voice faltering. “I mean, you don’t owe me anything… and I—”“Of course, you can stay here,” I cut in, probably too fast.He gave me a look. Skeptical. Like he didn’t believe me. Then his eyes flicked to Flora, like he was checking her reaction too. I couldn’t blame him. But seriously, how could I say no? What kind of father would I be if I turned him away, especially after years of waiting, hoping, and silently begging for a chance like this? Now, he stood here in my living room, shoulders slightly hunched, eyes heavy with something that looked a lot like shame. My son. A grown man now, bruised in ways I recognized

FLORA’S POVOne minute, I was warm and tangled in Alex’s arms, and my body was still humming from the intimacy we had just shared. The next, I was flying through the air. A startled yelp escaped my lips as I landed on the bed with a soft thud. I blinked up at him, completely disoriented.“What the hell, Alex?”“Put something on,” he ordered, already scrambling for his own clothes.I propped myself up on my elbows, watching him with furrowed brows as he pulled on a fresh pair of sweatpants and a T-shirt in record time. He moved like a man preparing for battle.“Why? What’s happening?”He only spared me a glance. “Jayden’s outside. Right now. Standing in front of the gate.”I froze and my stomach flipped. Jayden? Here?Alex was already reaching for his phone to open the gate remotely, leaving me scrambling to process what was happening. A knot of unease formed in my gut as I quickly grabbed my discarded T-shirt from the floor and pulled it over my head. I found my pair of shorts, yanking
BILLIONAIRES: Father or Son Chapter Seventy-Five
FLORA'S POV Warm steam curled around me as I stepped into the shower, behind Alex. He stood under the steady stream of water, his broad back to me, and his hands braced against the wall. His head was bowed, droplets sliding down his skin, tracing the taut muscles of his back. He didn't hear me come in. I took a deep breath and let my robe fall to the floor before stepping in behind him. The moment my palms pressed lightly against his damp skin, his muscles tensed, only for a second, before he sighed and his shoulders relaxed under my touch. I slowly moved to stand in front of him, looking him in the eyes. "Can I join you?" I asked softly with a smile, letting my fingers glide over his damp skin. Alex let out a deep chuckle. He leaned down and pressed a kiss to my forehead. “Of course, baby girl,” he murmured. I reached past him for the washcloth, my fingers grazing against his abdomen in the process. His stomach flexed under my touch. “Let me,” I whispered, lathering the cloth wi

FLORA’S POVI hummed softly as my consciousness returned. My eyelids fluttered open, and I took in my surroundings, realizing I was still in Alex’s bedroom, still tangled up in his sheets, still wrapped in his intoxicating scent. But his side of the bed was empty. A small smile crept onto my face as the memories of last night came rushing back. My body still tingled from his touch, from the way he had claimed me over and over again until I could barely breathe.Just as I started to push myself up, the door creaked open, and in walked Alex, carrying a tray. He was shirtless, his chiseled chest and abs on full display. He was wearing only a pair of low-hanging black sweatpants that clung sinfully to his hips. God help me. The sight of him alone made my breath hitch.He smiled as he sauntered over to me. “Good morning, sleeping beauty,” he murmured, setting the tray down before bending to press a lingering, toe-curling kiss against my lips. “Hope you slept well, my flower?”“Good morning,

ALEX’S POV I felt her stiffen in my grip before she slowly stood up, turning to face me. "I don't know, Alex," she whispered. Her voice was barely audible as she sniffed, trying to hold back more tears. "Maybe because you deserve to be happy. And maybe because I don't care about your age. You said I make you happy, so why won't you choose happiness?" Her tears began to spill down her cheeks, and the sight of it tore at my heart. It was unbearable to watch her in pain. She turned away and started to leave. In the next breath, I stood up quickly, reaching out to grab her wrist, pulling her back into my arms. She collapsed against my chest and her body trembled with her sobs. I held her tightly, feeling the warmth of her tears seep through my shirt. I let her cry while my mind swirled with guilt and regret. This was all my fault. Every bit of it was on me. I leaned down, pressing a gentle, lingering kiss on her forehead, hoping to offer some comfort. "Why don't you want me anymore
BILLIONAIRES: Father or Son Chapter Seventy-Two
ALEX'S POV I sighed as I stepped into my dark bedroom. Another night of avoiding Flora. Another night of trying and failing to outrun my own desire. And, just like every other night, I knew how this one would end, with me alone, wrestling with my frustration. I flipped the switch, and light flooded the room, and then... I froze. My breath caught in my throat. I hadn’t escaped her tonight. She was there. Right in the center of my room. Kneeling. Wearing nothing but red lace panties and a matching bra. Her skin glowed under the bright lights. Her hands rested delicately on her lap, her eyes were downcast, and her hair was pulled into a high ponytail, exposing the soft curve of her neck. She looked every bit the perfect submissive. I blinked twice to ensure I wasn’t just imagining her. This could be a cruel trick of my exhausted mind. But when she raised her head and looked at me with those innocent eyes, I knew this was real. She was right here in my room, waiting for me. A war er

JAYDEN’S POV The bright lights from the cameras nearly blinded me as I adjusted the microphone. The room was packed with reporters who were eager to pick apart every word I said. I took a deep breath. This wasn’t just about me; this was about doing what was right. "Good afternoon, everyone. I won’t take much of your time, but I felt it was necessary to come here today and address the speculation surrounding Kensington and my personal life. First, Kensington is facing challenges, and I won’t sugarcoat that. There are a lot of rumors going around, and while I can’t control what is being said, I can tell you this—we are doing everything we can to resolve these issues. We have a strong team working around the clock, and we are fully cooperating with the authorities in every way possible. "Also, I know my name has been dragged into several personal rumors about my past marriage, my relationships, and my choices. So today, I will answer your questions truthfully, once and for all, s
