Yvonne’s mischievous smirk remained as she lunged at Micheal, determined to smear some frosting on him. But in her excitement, she misjudged her step, her foot landing on a stray dollop of frosting on the floor. She slipped with a startled yelp, her hands instinctively grabbing onto Micheal’s shirt as she lost her balance. Micheal, caught off guard, tried to steady her, but the momentum was too much.

Before either of them knew it, they tumbled to the ground in a heap, Yvonne landing awkwardly on top of Micheal. The room seemed to freeze for a split second as their faces were mere inches apart, and then, in a moment of pure chance, their lips brushed together, soft and fleeting. It wasn’t planned, not even close, but the warmth of the accidental kiss lingered far longer than it lasted.

Yvonne’s eyes widened, and Micheal’s breath hitched, the unexpected closeness sending an undeniable jolt through them both. Their hearts raced, and for a second, they were too stunned to move, the sensa

    Yvonne’s hands trembled slightly as she opened the first box, revealing a delicate set of hairpins adorned with tiny, glittering flowers. Her heart melted at the sight, and she looked up to see Lily’s proud, beaming face. “Do you like them, Miss Yvonne?” Lily asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “They’re beautiful, sweetheart,” Yvonne cooed, gently tucking one of the hairpins into her hair as Lily watched with delight. Next, Yvonne reached for the box that Jack had chosen. Inside was a simple yet elegant wrist chain with tiny charms that jingled softly as she held it up. She immediately slipped it onto her wrist, admiring the sweet gift. “This is so lovely, Jack. Thank you,” Yvonne said, smiling warmly at him. The children’s innocent joy filled the room as Yvonne fawned over the thoughtful gifts, but it was the slightly larger box that caught her attention next. Yvonne carefully untied the ribbon, feeling the anticipation build as she lifted the lid. Inside was a framed pic

    As the movie neared its end, Jack and Lily’s eyelids grew heavier with each passing scene. Yvonne noticed Jack’s little head bobbing as he tried to keep his eyes open, while Lily snuggled closer, her breaths evening out as sleep overtook her. Micheal smiled softly, nodding toward the kids. “I think it’s time to get these two to bed,” he whispered. Together, Micheal and Yvonne carefully lifted the twins, cradling them in their arms as they tiptoed down the hallway. They gently tucked the children into their beds, pulling up the covers and placing soft kisses on their foreheads. Yvonne brushed a stray curl away from Lily’s face, lingering for a moment as she watched the little girl sigh contentedly in her sleep. When they returned to the living room, they paused at the doorway, taking in the aftermath of their impromptu celebration. The room was a cheerful mess: colorful confetti strewn across the floor, half-eaten snacks scattered about, and spots of dried frosting on the cushions

    Yvonne let the quiet lull her, her thoughts swirling with everything Micheal had done to make her birthday special. She couldn’t remember the last time someone had gone to such lengths for her, and Micheal’s thoughtfulness filled her with a warmth she hadn’t felt in years. She glanced sideways at him, noting the way he stared out at the city, his profile softened by the dim light. She could see the hints of vulnerability in his eyes, a gentleness that was always there beneath his protective nature. “Why do you do it?” she asked suddenly, breaking the silence. “Go through all this trouble for me?” Micheal turned to her, caught off guard by the question. He considered his answer, choosing his words carefully. “Because you matter, Yvonne. You’ve been through a lot, and I wanted you to have a day where you didn’t have to think about anything except how special you are.” Yvonne’s heart tightened at his words. She bit her lip, overwhelmed by the sincerity in his voice. “I never knew you

    Micheal’s heart raced as he watched Yvonne beside him, her face glowing softly under the moonlight. She looked peaceful yet vulnerable, and for a fleeting moment, he allowed himself to imagine what it would be like to share more than just these quiet nights. He hadn’t meant for their conversation to turn personal, hadn’t intended to lay bare the hopes he’d harbored secretly. But with Yvonne, his guard always seemed to slip, and he found himself speaking from a place he usually kept hidden.Micheal knew he couldn’t afford to be selfish. His children had grown attached to Yvonne, often whispering in his ear their dreams of calling her “Mommy.” He’d seen it in their eyes, a silent wish they were too young to articulate fully but that radiated every time they were near her. Yvonne had become more than a friend or a caregiver; she was their safe haven, the piece of their family puzzle they didn’t know they needed until she arrived.He glanced at Yvonne, watching her shift slightly in her s

    Yvonne rushed into her room, half-running, and collapsed onto the floor as soon as the door clicked shut behind her. The brave front she had put up moments ago crumbled, leaving her reeling from the chaos of her emotions. Her stomach still fluttered with the ghost of their shared kiss, a sensation that sent shivers through her body. She had always considered herself reserved, composed—a woman who kept her emotions tightly controlled. But in Micheal’s arms, she had melted, completely losing herself in the heat of the moment. She kissed him back, her body responding in a way she hadn’t allowed in years. His body had felt solid, warm, and grounding. His lips… “Oh my God!” Yvonne gasped, her voice shaking with disbelief. She pressed her hands against her cheeks, feeling the heat that still lingered. How could she have finalized her relationship with one man and kissed another all on the same day? Her heart twisted in her chest as she grappled with the weight of her actions. The truth

    While Yvonne revisited the moments of their unexpected kiss, Micheal stood by his bedroom window, lost in his thoughts, unaware of the soft smile that had settled on his lips. The kiss lingered in his mind, its warmth still fresh on his skin. As far as he could remember, it was the first time he had truly initiated a kiss. There were no memories of tender embraces or sweet beginnings with the woman who had given birth to his children—only the lost memory of one night and then the news of him having children after they were birth by a woman who died afterwards. Micheal couldn't recall the circumstances that had led to their union. Drugged? Manipulated? He suspected his parents had orchestrated it all, ensuring an heir at any cost. It was a mystery that he never dwelled on too deeply, a chapter of his life he had long buried. But kissing Yvonne—it felt like a first. A real, conscious choice, untainted by deceit or obligation.Micheal hadn’t expected Yvonne to respond as she did. He had

    Susan sat in the lavish sitting room of the Langston estate, her nerves frayed as she waited. The room, adorned with expensive art and elegant decor, screamed wealth and power—symbols of the family she desperately wanted to be a part of. She adjusted her dress, tugging at the hem as she tried to calm her racing heart. This meeting was her last hope. If Mrs. Langston didn’t help her, she had nowhere else to turn to.The sound of heels clicking against the polished marble floor pulled Susan from her thoughts. Mrs. Langston entered the room, her presence commanding and icy. Her husband followed, though less intimidating, his face marked with a frown of disapproval. They exchanged brief pleasantries, but Susan could feel the tension in the air, thick and suffocating.“What’s so urgent, Susan?” Mrs. Langston asked, her voice sharp and impatient. “I’ve been busy, and I don’t have time for nonsense.”Susan swallowed hard, steeling herself. “Micheal stopped me from working as the children’s n

    Mr. and Mrs. Langston retreated to their private study, a richly furnished room lined with dark mahogany shelves and filled with the scent of old leather and expensive cigars. It was their sanctuary, a place where business was conducted, and schemes were hatched. As Mrs. Langston paced the room, her sharp heels clicking against the polished floor, her husband sat silently, nursing a glass of whiskey. He watched her with a weary gaze, accustomed to the intensity of her ambitions yet growing increasingly tired of their effects.“This is all Susan’s fault,” Mrs. Langston muttered, her voice laced with frustration. “I thought she was strong enough to seduce Micheal, to make him see reason, but she’s just as useless as the one I sent before, who ended up doing more harm than good. Two women, and neither of them could handle my son.”Mr. Langston sighed, swirling the amber liquid in his glass. “Maybe that’s because Micheal doesn’t need handling,” he said quietly, his tone calm but firm. “He

    The house felt like a tomb. Silent, suffocating, and filled with ghosts of emotions Yvonne couldn’t name.She had locked herself in for days, refusing contact with the outside world. The mere thought of facing reality made her sick to her stomach—literally. Every meal her mother forced upon her barely made it past her throat before nausea clawed its way up, rejecting the sustenance she knew she needed.She was wasting away.Her reflection in the mirror had become a stranger—sunken eyes, hollow cheeks, a shadow of herself. And yet, she couldn't find it in her to care.Because how could she?How could she pretend to be okay when the one person she had given her trust—her safe place—was the very reason her world had collapsed?Michael.She had once whispered his name with reverence in her heart, with an aching sort of longing she never dared admit to him yet.Now?Now it felt like a curse.She should be grateful, right?

    A few hours after David’s arrest—outside the police station.Sammy stood stiffly by the station’s entrance, arms crossed tightly over her chest as she watched the doors swing open. David stepped out, his expression set in a tight scowl, flanked by his lawyer.She had done all she could. After failing to secure help from the company’s legal team, she had arranged a private lawyer for him and stayed with him through the exhausting process. But it hadn’t changed much.Yvonne’s father had opened a case against David, and while there wasn’t enough physical evidence to detain him, the investigation was ongoing. David had been warned—he could be summoned at any time.Just as David took his first breath of fresh air, a furious voice cut through the tense atmosphere."You used my daughter."David barely had time to react before Yvonne’s father stormed toward him, each step fueled by pure rage. His cane tapped harshly against the pavement, his other hand pointing a trembling finger straight at

    A lot had happened that day.Micheal had barely left the twins’ room when he received an urgent call from his personal assistant, Sandra. The moment he answered, her voice carried a mix of urgency and disbelief.“There’s chaos at the company, sir. Something big happened early this morning.”Micheal frowned, gripping his phone tighter. “What kind of chaos?”Sandra took a deep breath before delivering the bombshell.“It’s about David… He was arrested.”For a moment, Micheal said nothing, his mind processing the unexpected turn of events.Apparently, Yvonne’s father hadn’t been able to stomach the full scope of what his daughter had suffered. And unlike before—when he had turned his back on her—this time, he had taken action. He had wasted no time in seeking legal justice, making sure David paid for what he had put Yvonne through.The arrest had sent shockwaves through the company. Employees had been left speechless, watching in stunned silence as one of their highest-ranking executives

    The Twins' Innocent ConfrontationAs soon as Micheal left the twins' room, Rebecca took a deep breath, regaining her composure. Now that she knew the truth, her purpose had shifted—this wasn’t just about being a temporary nanny anymore. She was genuinely ready to care for the children in Yvonne’s absence.With renewed confidence, she approached the twins, a warm smile gracing her lips."Let’s get you two ready for school."But the moment her words left her mouth, she noticed a familiar exchange of glances between Jack and Lily—silent yet unmistakably purposeful, like they were communicating without speaking.Then Jack turned his gaze to her, his small brows furrowed. His voice, though soft, carried an unmistakable weight of accusation."Why did you lie to Mommy?"Rebecca's heart skipped a beat. The innocent yet mature expression on their faces made her falter, the sheer seriousness of their demeanor contrasting with their adorable features.She swallowed, suddenly feeling exposed unde

    A Father's RedemptionThe embrace lingered for a few precious moments, a silent exchange of love and reassurance before Micheal kissed the twins' foreheads. He pulled back gently, his hands cupping their small faces as he gazed into their wide, trusting eyes. Before speaking, he subtly wiped away the remnants of his tears, determined to steady himself."What I want you two to know is that your mother loves you so much," Micheal said firmly, his voice carrying the weight of his emotions. "She was super sad and sick when she thought she lost you two. So, have it in mind that she would never, under any circumstances, leave you again."Jack and Lily nodded, their tiny faces etched with a seriousness that melted Micheal’s heart. He would have smiled at their cuteness if not for the crushing despair that lingered in his chest. What he was about to say next mattered more than anything.He took a deep breath. "So, what I want to say is… if you two want to go to her now, she won’t say no. But

    The Weight of Truth The morning light filtering through the curtains should have felt warm, comforting even, but it did nothing to ease the cold tension hanging in the room. Rebecca’s finger hovered over the call button, her pulse quickening as she struggled to think of another way to handle the children’s sudden withdrawal. The silence from the twins was suffocating, their usual bright energy drained into something distant and unreadable. Just as she was about to press the dial, a deep, weary voice stopped her. "Don’t call her." Rebecca jolted, her grip on the phone tightening. She turned swiftly, her gaze landing on Micheal, who stood at the doorway, his face shadowed with exhaustion. His usually sharp eyes were dim, weighed down by sleeplessness and something much deeper—regret. Without another word, Rebecca ended the call, slipping the phone into her pocket as she stepped aside. She recognized the authority in Micheal’s voice; this was a conversation meant only for him and his

    The night stretched on, thick with unease, shadows pressing against the walls of Micheal’s home. He sat in his dimly lit study, the amber glow of his whiskey swirling in the glass he hadn’t taken a sip from. His hands clenched the armrests of his chair, knuckles white from the pressure.He was drowning in emotions too intense, too suffocating.Anger, at the sheer audacity of David and Sammy—the realization that Yvonne’s misery had been orchestrated for a business deal.Confusion, at how he had been placed at the centre of it all without his knowledge.And above all else—fear.Fear of what this truth meant. Fear of the possibility that he had unknowingly been the reason Yvonne’s life had unravelled. The woman he loved. The woman he had vowed to protect.Was he her nightmare?He wanted to reject it, to push the thoughts away, but they wrapped around his mind like chains, dragging him deeper into torment.He needed answers.If his mother had orchestrated this, then she was not above lyin

  • Billionaire Daddy for sale    The Catalyst

    The room was thick with silence—so heavy it felt suffocating. The air itself seemed to pause, unwilling to carry the weight of Yvonne’s confession any further.Yvonne had just summarised everything she had been through, leaving out the fact that Micheal happened to be the man who had been the catalyst of her horror. The man had unknowingly become a tool to ruin her life.Across from her, her parents sat frozen, their expressions carved from pure shock. Her mother’s lips trembled, her eyes wide and unblinking, while her father’s face had lost all its color, drained of warmth, of disbelief, of every ounce of composure he once held.Two minutes passed. Not a single word was spoken.Then, like a fragile thread snapping under unbearable tension, her mother let out a heart-wrenching sob. She clutched her chest, shaking her head as if she could somehow will away the truth. Tears streamed down her face, and with a broken cry, she lurched toward Yvonne, wrapping her in the fiercest, most despe

  • Billionaire Daddy for sale    Back Home

    The moment Yvonne stepped through the grand gates of her family’s estate, a heavy weight settled onto her chest, pressing down like an invisible force threatening to suffocate her. The sight of the familiar stone pathways, the towering oak trees lining the driveway, and the grand house standing against the twilight sky—all of it should have been comforting. But instead, it shattered her. This was home. The place where she had once felt safe, loved, untouchable. And yet, it had also been the place where she had been cast aside, left to fend for herself in a world that had swallowed her whole. Her legs barely carried her as she stepped into the house, the familiar scent of lavender and aged wood filling her lungs. The warmth of the golden lights did nothing to chase away the chill in her bones. She was trembling, her hands clutching her coat as if it could shield her from the memories clawing at the edges of her mind. Her mother was the first to see her. “Yvonne?” The voice was s
