Yvonne’s heart pounded in her chest as she quietly slipped through the hallway, the suffocating air of the house pressing down on her with each step. She needed to get out—now. The walls seemed to close in, a flood of old emotions threatening to drown her. But as she stepped into the living room, her blood ran cold.

Her parents were already seated, waiting for her.

Her father, Andrew Lawrence, leaned back in his chair, his steely gaze locked onto her, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. He had known she would try to leave. Yvonne’s mother, Maria, sat beside him, her hands folded neatly on her lap, a tight smile stretching across her face as if she was forcing herself to act composed. But Yvonne could see the tension in her mother's stiff posture, the flicker of something unreadable in her eyes.

A cold sweat broke across Yvonne’s back. Her throat tightened as panic surged within her. She had tried to escape the torrent of emotions that this house—the people in this house—brough

    The soft lull of baby coos and distant giggles filtered through the walls of Amy’s apartment like a comforting hum. Sunlight spilled across the terrace where Yvonne sat beside her best friend, the light brushing her skin like a balm she didn’t know she needed.The twins were inside, nestled beside Mark on the carpet as they marvelled over baby Joel, who lay swaddled like a blessing between them. The child was a miracle. Amy’s miracle. And somehow, seeing them all together — Mark’s hand steady on Jack’s shoulder, Lily whispering to the baby as if he understood — made something in Yvonne settle.But beneath that peace, there was a tightness in her chest she hadn’t yet unpacked.Amy reached for her glass of tea and tilted her head, watching her friend closely. “You’ve been quiet,” she said softly.Yvonne blinked as if surfacing from deep within her thoughts. Her hand moved almost absently to her lap, where something shimmered beneath the sleeve of her cardigan. She pushed it back, reveal

  • Billionaire Daddy for sale    Her wish and His.

    For a long, precious moment, they stayed like that—wrapped in each other’s warmth, the world and its troubles falling away as they clung together in the quiet of the garden. The soft breeze stirred the petals of nearby flowers, and the gentle rustle of leaves became the only witness to their embrace.Micheal, who had felt the cold grip of hopelessness for so long, finally found a flicker of strength. Slowly, hesitantly, he pulled back just enough to see her face. His hands rose to cup her cheeks, his thumbs brushing along her soft skin as he gazed deep into her eyes—eyes that held so much pain, so much love, so much resilience. His own eyes shimmered with raw emotion, his voice unsteady.“Can you allow me… to make amends for everything that’s happened?” he asked, his voice barely more than a breath. “I want to spend the rest of my life replacing all your hurt with happiness. I can’t lose you, baby.” His voice broke as his nose twitched with the effort to hold back his tears.Yvonne’s

    The air between them seemed to hum with all the things left unsaid. Yvonne drew in a steadying breath, feeling the weight of the moment pressing against her chest.“We need to talk,” she said quietly, her voice firm but gentle.Micheal nodded almost instantly, his gaze locked on hers, as if trying to read every unspoken word in her eyes before she even said them aloud. His heart hammered in his chest, fear gnawing at him—fear that perhaps, after all they’d been through, she was about to close the door between them forever.Yvonne inhaled deeply again, then tore her gaze from his, turning toward where their children still chattered happily with her parents.She crossed over, her footsteps soft on the paved path, and crouched to their level, her face warm but serious.“Lily, Jack,” she called gently, drawing their attention from the drawings they were excitedly showing off to their grandparents. “Mommy needs to talk to Daddy for a little while, okay?”The twins paused, glancing between

    Yvonne was too preoccupied by the warmth in her chest over the bonding between her parents and the children to register that Micheal had moved closer.The kids’ excited chatter filled the front yard as they showed off their drawings and photos of school friends. They had warmed up to their new grandparents so easily, as if this were a long-awaited reunion rather than their very first meeting. Laughter drifted through the air — gentle and light — carrying a sweetness that made her heart ache in the best way.It reminded Yvonne of a time when her parents had expected nothing of her, when they had simply let her be their little princess. If they truly had changed, then Yvonne knew her children were in for an abundance of care and affection.Her parents used to treat her like the center of their world when she was much younger. And then, all at once, she felt it — that familiar, quiet pull. The subtle shift in the air as he stood close. The warmth of his hands lightly supporting her lowe

    Yvonne held her children’s hands tightly as they stood just inside the gate, the sun casting long golden rays across the compound. Her heart fluttered at a rhythm she couldn't control. The presence of her parents beside her felt both grounding and surreal — but nothing compared to the way her heart clenched when she looked down at her children.Her children.Their wide, cautious eyes swept the compound in slow, calculated glances. Their excitement had died down the moment they noticed they were about to meet yet another set of grandparents.Yvonne's breath hitched.Mary and her husband —her parents—had stepped outside, lured by the children’s joyful shouts moments earlier. But now the air was tense, stretched thin as the twins instinctively edged backward.Jack’s hand tightened around Lily’s, his arm subtly sliding in front of her like a shield.Micheal, still by the car, stiffened as he watched the shift. He recognized that body language all too well. His own stomach twisted into a g

    Micheal adjusted his grip on the steering wheel, his knuckles slightly pale from the pressure. On the outside, he looked composed — calm even — but on the inside, his chest was a mess of nerves.The low hum of the engine was drowned out by the cheerful chorus coming from the backseat.“Mommy’s going to love this one!” Lily declared, holding up a glittering necklace made from shiny beads and plastic gems.“No, mine is the coolest! Look at this drawing — it’s her, me, you, and Lily on a rocket ship!” Jack added, waving the paper in front of his sister’s nose.Lily in turn straightened the petals of the flower she had bought, and had accidentally stuffed along with the piles of things they had brought to show their mommy. The car was filled with excited chatter and giggles, wrapping Micheal in a bubble of pure noise that should’ve calmed him.It didn’t.He couldn’t stop rehearsing everything in his head.What if Yvonne was still upset? What if she regretted asking him to come? What if h
