CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE EVERYTHING FELT HEAVIER
ISABELLA'S POV I sat up on the bed, my head resting against the headboard, my phone still clutched in my hand. The staff member's voice echoed in my head. "Your father collapsed. He’s undergoing an emergency surgery at the moment. It’s serious."A part of me felt numb. Another part—the one I tried so hard to suppress—felt a pang of worry, even guilt. No matter how much I tried to deny it, I couldn’t ignore the knot forming in my chest.Should I go see him? Would it even matter after everything he’s done?I let out a shaky breath, my fingers tightening around the phone as if it could anchor me. The answer wouldn’t come, no matter how much I wrestled with it. The memories of his disapproving glares, his dismissive words, and the moment he disowned me all swirled in my head, taunting me.The urge to call the hospital clashed with the overwhelming desire to do nothing at all. What would I even say if I went? Would he want to see me? Or would he turn me away, like he always did?Lost in m

ISABELLA'S POV The warmth in Nicholas' voice and the sincerity in his eyes brought a lump to my throat. I leaned into his touch, letting myself breathe for a moment.“He’ll be fine,” He continued. “You’ve survived so much. You don’t need to carry his burdens too.”I nodded, feeling the tension in my shoulders ease slightly.Nicholas stood, giving my knee a reassuring squeeze before heading to the closet to get dressed. As he pulled on his shirt, I followed him, grabbing his tie from the rack.“Let me,” I offered, stepping closer.He watched me with an amused smile as I looped the tie around his neck, my fingers deftly molding the knot. I could feel his intense gaze on me.I glanced up briefly, catching his gaze, but he wasn’t just watching me—he was memorizing me, taking in every detail of my face. His eyes traced the curve of my lips, lingering there for a moment before shifting to the bridge of my nose, then the arch of my brows. When his gaze met mine again, there was something un

CHRISTABELLA'S POV The days after Father’s surgery had been a mixture of tense silence and power plays. It was fascinating, really, how quickly everyone had fallen into their roles. Daniel, of course, wasted no time seizing the opportunity to run the household and oversee the empire in Father’s absence. He wasn’t outright declaring himself in charge—that would be too brazen—but the way he lingered in Father’s study, the way he directed the staff and made decisions without consulting anyone, told me everything I needed to know.And Mother? She was too weak to care. Her energy was consumed entirely by Father’s recovery, and she didn’t seem to mind leaving the reins to Daniel. Perhaps she thought it was temporary, or perhaps she simply didn’t have the strength to argue. Either way, she was blind to what was happening around her.Not me, though.I watched everything, listened to every conversation, and let it all play out. As much as I hated seeing Daniel preen in his stolen position, I

DANIEL'S POV I slammed the bedroom door behind me, the sound reverberating through the walls. My hands trembled, not from fear, but from the barely contained fury clawing its way through me. My chest heaved as I gripped the edge of the dresser, my fingers digging into the wood.This can’t be happening.Christabella's words echoed in my mind repeatedly. Her sickly sweet voice as she announced her “surprise” to the family. The way she smiled as if she hadn’t just shattered everything I’d worked to control. The delighted gasp from Dominic, the way his face lit up with an excitement I've never seen before. The toast—the goddamned toast. Everyone clinking glasses while I sat there, frozen, my stomach twisting into knots.And then, the scan.The glossy black-and-white image she so boldly presented, proof to silence anyone daring to doubt her. It had felt like the walls of the dining room were closing in on me. I couldn’t move, couldn’t speak, couldn’t even breathe. Because deep down, I kn

ISABELLA'S POV The mansion loomed ahead, its grandiose structure as cold and unfeeling as the people inside. I stepped through the towering entrance, my heels clicking against the marble floor. Behind me, Nicholas followed, his tall frame like a shield. His hand rested on my waist, silently assuring me I wasn’t alone.Dominic Sterling had summoned me—requested my presence was how he’d worded it, as if this was some sort of favor. In truth, I didn’t want to honor his call, but I had accepted. It wasn’t for him. It wasn’t even for me. It was for closure. After this, I would sever every last thread tying me to the Sterlings. No more blood ties, no more obligations, no more pain.The grand living room opened before me, every detail as I remembered—rich gold accents on the ornate furniture and the scent of polished wood. But something felt different this time. The energy in the air was thick with anticipation, as though everyone was eager to feast on whatever scraps Dominic was about to t

ISABELLA'S POV Silence stretched across the room as Dominic’s words hung in the air. My inheritance, the law firm, the honorific—it was everything he thought I wanted, everything he assumed I would grab to prove my worth.But he couldn’t have been more wrong.I let the silence linger, meeting his sharp gaze with unflinching calm. And then, to the shock of everyone present, I broke it.“No.”Dominic’s head snapped back as though he’d been physically struck. “What?” His voice wavered.“I said no,” I repeated, my tone steady. “I don’t want it.”The color drained from his face, only to return in a furious flush. “Do you understand what you’re saying?” he barked, his voice rising. “This isn’t a choice, Isabella! This is your future, your legacy!”“I think I’ve had enough of being manipulated, Dominic,” I said calmly “I don’t need your inheritance or your approval. I never did.”Christabella let out a sharp laugh, drawing the room’s attention to her. She sat back, rubbing her stomach “Well

ISABELLA'S POV The courtroom fell silent as the judge leaned forward. “After reviewing the evidence and hearing both arguments, the court finds in favor of Mr. Arlington. The defendant is hereby ordered to pay damages as stipulated.”The gavel struck the wooden block, and just like that, victory was ours.I released a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding, the tension that had gripped me for weeks finally dissolving. As Mr. Arlington turned to me with tears of gratitude in his eyes, I managed a reassuring smile. This was why I did what I did.The smile tugging at my lips refused to fade as I sat in the backseat of the car, the city rolling past the windows. The tension in my shoulders had evaporated, replaced by a lightness I hadn’t felt in weeks. Winning this case was more than a victory for Mr. Arlington—it was a win for everything I’d been fighting for.“Mrs. Montgomery,” my driver said, catching my attention. “Where to now?”“Home,” I replied, sinking into the leather seat.I

ISABELLA'S POV It happened in a flash.The blare of a truck’s horn shattered my thoughts. I snapped my head up, my body jerking forward as my seatbelt tightened. My driver cursed under his breath, yanking the wheel hard to the right.Time seemed to stretch as I caught a glimpse of the truck—a massive, hulking beast barreling straight toward us, its headlights glaring like the eyes of a predator. My heart slammed against my ribs, terror surging through me.“Watch out!” I screamed, clutching the door handle so tightly my knuckles ached.The car swerved violently, the tires screeching against the pavement. My stomach lurched as the world tilted. The sound of metal crunching against wood echoed through the air as we veered off the road and slammed into a tree.The impact jolted me forward, the seatbelt biting into my shoulder. My breath came in short, ragged gasps, and for a moment, all I could hear was the blood rushing in my ears.We’d stopped.I blinked, my vision blurred as I tried t

CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE EPILOGUE
The soft rays of the morning sun filtered through the sheer curtains, casting a golden glow across the room. I stretched lazily in bed, savoring the warmth of the covers and the smell of freshly brewed coffee wafting through the air. Somewhere down the hallway, faint bursts of laughter echoed—a sound that filled my heart in ways I could never fully explain.“Mommy!” a sweet, high-pitched voice broke through the tranquility.I turned just in time to see a small blur of auburn curls barreling toward me. My daughter, Chloe, climbed onto the bed with a delighted giggle, her hazel eyes sparkling with mischief. “Mommy, Daddy’s being silly again!”Hot on her heels was her twin brother, Caleb. He shared her curls but had Nicholas’s sharp, gray eyes—the kind that seemed to see through everything. He scrambled up beside her, his grin so wide it threatened to split his face. “Mommy, Daddy said we could have pancakes with chocolate chips today!”My heart swelled as I pulled them both into my arms
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE CHRISTABELLA'S REDEMPTION
ISABELLA'S POV"Now!"Nicholas' voice rang out cutting through the tension like a lifeline. Before I could process what was happening, his arms were around me, pulling me into the safety of his embrace.The gun Daniel was holding clattered to the floor as Nicholas's men, who had been pretending to work for Daniel, lunged forward. Their movements were swift like they’d been waiting for this exact moment. They tackled Daniel to the ground, pinning him there as he roared in frustration, his curses echoing through the room.Victor, always the snake, was quicker to react. His sharp eyes darted to the pile of documents he’d gathered, and in one smooth motion, he scooped them up and tried to flee from the scene until uniformed officers emerged from the shadows, guns drawn, their commanding voices booming.“Hands in the air! Drop the documents and get on the ground!”Victor froze mid-step, his face contorted with fury as he realized there was no escape. His gaze darted around, desperate for an
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE GOING ON HIS KNEES
ISABELLA'S POV The rough hands dragged me forward, my shoes scraping against the jagged rocks. My heart thundered in my chest as I caught sight of the open expanse before me—a cliff, rocky and treacherous, with nothing but empty air beyond its edge. The chilling sound of the wind howling against the cliffs made me shudder.Then I saw him.Nicholas.He was standing at the other end of the cliff. Relief crashed into me like a wave, and tears immediately welled in my eyes."Nicholas!” I cried, my voice breaking as I tried to rush toward him but the cold barrel of a gun pressed against my temple stopped me in my tracks."Ah, ah, ah," Daniel's voice came. "Not so fast, Isabella."My breath hitched. Nicholas yelled from the other side of the cliff.“Isabella, stay where you are! Don’t move!”I froze, looking to him for reassurance.But then I took in our surroundings. There was no one else here—no police, no backup, just Nicholas on one side and Daniel, Victor, two of Daniel’s men, and me
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE KIDNAPPED II
NICHOLAS POV "Explain to me what the fuck you mean by you didn’t come back with my wife?!” My voice thundered loudly. I stared down the group of bodyguards standing in my office, their heads bowed in shame. “Your only job was to protect her. To make sure she was safe. And now you’re standing here—without her!”"Where the fuck is my wife?!" I roared, fury blinding every bit of reasoning.The lead guard flinched but managed to stammer, “Sir, we—there was a commotion. We tried to—”“Tried?” I slammed my fist onto the desk, making it shudder under the force. “You tried? Do you have any idea who you’re dealing with? Who you were supposed to protect?!” My mind was spiraling into chaos, painting horrifying images of what could be happening to Isabella. Was she hurt? Was she terrified? My stomach churned at the thought of her crying out for me, needing me, and I wasn’t there.I pointed at one of my men, my finger trembling with rage. “Lock them up,” I barked “I don’t care how you do it. Ho
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE KIDNAPPED
ISABELLA'S POV The grand ballroom buzzed with polite conversation, the soft clinking of glasses, and the occasional hum of excitement as bidders raised their paddles. The silent auction had brought together an array of high-profile attendees, from CEOs to philanthropists, each trying to outshine the other with their charitable contributions. I, on the other hand, didn't care much.Life has been good—better than I had ever expected after Daniel was no longer a part of it. My law firm was now soaring to unimaginable heights. Cases came pouring in and with every victory on my part, my reputation as the greatest lawyer only grew stronger.It felt surreal sometimes, standing here in my designer gown, exchanging pleasantries with people who once doubted me, envied me, or outright hated me. Yet here I was, proving them all wrong.I glanced at my phone, briefly wondering what Nicholas was up to. The thought brought a small smile to my lips. He’d encouraged me to attend this event, insistin
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, SUNSHINE
ISABELLA'S POV The moment I stepped into Starlight Haven, I was struck by how different it felt. The familiar lobby, usually bustling with quiet elegance, was now glowing with a soft, romantic light. Flowers—white lilies and lavender roses—and pictures of me, lined the path ahead, their fragrance mingling with the faint scent of candles. My heart skipped a beat as my eyes followed the illuminated trail leading toward the rooftop.I took a deep breath, gripping my clutch tightly as I ascended the staircase. Each step seemed to echo in the quiet, heightening the anticipation swirling in my chest. When I reached the top, I paused.The rooftop garden has been transformed into something out of a dream. Strings of twinkling lights crisscross above, casting a magical glow over the space. An orchestra was nestled in one corner, their instruments gleaming as they played a soft, familiar melody. The music seemed to wrap around me, pulling me forward.And then I saw him.Nicholas stood at the
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE SURPRISE
DANIEL'S POV The guard’s voice grated against my ears as he approached my cell. “West, you’ve got a visitor.”A visitor? My heart skipped, but not from joy. Who could it be?Christabella’s face flashed in my mind and I beamed at the thought. Maybe she couldn’t resist the pull that bonded us together. Maybe, just maybe, she had come crawling back, realizing she still needed me. After all, she's head over heels for me.I rose to my feet, ignoring the ache in my bruised ribs, and followed the guard out of the cell block. My steps quickened as the thought of Christabella visiting me filled my mind.But as I stepped into the visitor's room and caught sight of the man waiting on the other side of the thick glass, my blood ran cold.Victor.That smug bastard sat there, his posture relaxed, his hands folded neatly on the table as if he owned the place. Rage bubbled up inside me.“You son of a bitch!” I roared, slamming my fists against the partition between us. The sound reverberated through
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE PRISON SLUM
ISABELLA'S POV I opened the door to find Christabella standing there, her expression a mix of nervousness and hope. She looked different—less polished, less poised. Her hair was pulled into a loose ponytail, and she clutched a small wicker basket in her hands like it was her lifeline. “Hi,” she said softly, offering a nervous smile.I crossed my arms, narrowing my eyes. “What are you doing here, Christabella? What do you want?”She hesitated, shifting on her feet before holding the basket out to me. “I, uh... I brought this for you.”I glanced at the basket and back at her, my brow arching skeptically. “A basket of what?”Her chuckle was uneasy “Dark chocolate with raspberry. I remember it was your favorite when we were kids, so I thought...you know, it’d be a nice gift.”I couldn’t help the incredulous laugh that escaped me. “So you just came here to hand me some chocolate? What are we, five?”Her smile faltered, and her gaze dropped to the ground. She bit her lip, her grip tighten
CONVENIENT VOWS WITH THE BILLIONAIRE FAMILY.; NICHOLAS.. ALL OF THEM
ISABELLA'S POV Six Months LaterSunlight streamed through the sheer curtains, painting soft golden patterns across the room. The sound of birds chirping outside drifted in with the warm morning breeze. I blinked against the brightness, slowly stretching beneath the covers.It's been half a year since I woke up from surgery, since I felt Nicholas’s hand on mine and heard him whispered my name like I was his entire world. Since I realized that, despite everything, I was still alive.And not just alive. Thriving.I pushed the blankets off and stepped toward the window, my movements no longer hesitant or weak. The first few weeks after the transplant had been grueling. My body had fought against exhaustion, against pain, against the overwhelming weight of recovering.But Nicholas had been there for all of it. Every doctor’s appointment. Every sleepless night. Every moment of doubt when I thought I wouldn’t make it.Now, my reflection in the glass wasn't of a fragile woman barely holding
