Katie“Are you sure it is alright? I don’t want to disturb your things.” I hold the phone closer to my ear as I walk into Mark’s home office. My ear fills with a soft chuckle. “Baby, you are my wife. If you need to use the computer, you can. There isn’t any reason why I wouldn’t let you in there. I’m not hiding anything. What is mine is yours.”A smile tugs at my lips, and my heart warms. “I know I’m your wife, but I don’t want to accidentally do something on your computer and ruin anything. I’m just double checking.” Mark cuts me off. “Stop being overly cautious. You have every right to go in there and use anything in there, including the computer. Even if you accidentally open a file or company document, there is nothing to worry about. As my wife, you are also part owner of the company. Stop worrying.”I sigh. “I can’t help it.” He huffs, “The only thing we should worry about is you are walking around too much. I thought you were on bedrest. Doesn’t that mean yo

I shake my head. “No. I’m not going without my wife. She isn’t healthy enough to go, and I will not stress her out by going by myself. But thinking about it now, I think I’ll be stressed out more than Katie will if I go. Why can’t you handle this for me? You said you and mom were planning on attending.”The muscle along my jaw twitches as I ball my hands into fists. Everything has been worked out, but now that it is the day of the charity event, things have fallen apart. Why? My father sighs and sits up straight in the chair, staring across my desk at me. His eyes plea with me to give him a break, but I don’t think I have it in me to do it.He knows everyone will see me there alone and if Tiffany gets anywhere close to me, the stupid rumors will start again. Tiffany will seize the opportunity to spin some wild tale that I’m there with her and we are still getting married. HELL NO!! NOT HAPPENING!!!I won’t give anyone the impression I’m there with Tiffany. If luck is on

KatieMy head is spinning. I never knew there was so much to learn about these events. Who knew? I take a deep breath and sip on my glass of water. Luckily, my stomach is being good and, for now, not getting upset. A few weird smells drift through the air, mixed with some strong perfume. My stomach churns, but I sip the water and take steady, even breaths to calm myself. Mark’s mother lightly nudges my arm and points across the ballroom. “That group over there is a part of the ‘old money’ group. Their families have been wealthy for multiple generations. Some think the ‘new money’ doesn’t deserve to be at these events, regardless of how much money they have.” She leans in and whispers, “I can’t stand the ‘old money’ group.”My eyebrows knot together, and I take another sip of water. “Aren’t you considered old money by the standards you have given me? Why would you hate the people in that group, then?”This all seems so crazy and more drama than I thought it would be. She

KatieMy heart stops. The anger and fury in Tiffany’s eyes when she glares daggers at my son kicks in my protective, motherly instincts. I won’t let her hurt my child!I bolt out of the wheelchair and dash towards my son. At the same time, Tiffany catapults forward and screams at the top of her lungs. “YOU! YOU SHOULDN’T EXIST! I WILL MAKE SURE YOU AREN’T IN MY WAY ANYMORE!!”Blood vessels pop along the side of her face, and it looks like it could explode any second. I ignore the screams from behind me. At this moment, nothing is more important than my son. I need to protect him.The security guards fight to restrain the crazy woman while my heart beats wildly in my chest while I sprint as fast as I can across the room. Frightened, the hosts step back away from the scene while everyone else stands frozen, watching the nightmare unfold in front of them. Just as I reach my son and engulf him in my arms, Tiffany breaks free from the security guards and shoots forward, ramming h

MarkI storm through the building and into my office, not bothering to acknowledge anyone along the way. If I provide any reaction, it is a grunt or a snort. There is another important issue consuming my mind, and I must address it before I can handle anything else. Though I’ve had the weekend to calm down, nothing can cool my boiling anger simmering under my skin, waiting for the right moment to explode. Employees scurry out of my way while murmurs float through the air. But no one dares to say anything loud enough for me to hear. My scowl deepens as I storm around my desk and yank my chair out. “Jack!” Before his name leaves my mouth, he is in my office and right next to my desk with his tablet in hand. “Do you need me to do anything?”My eyes dart to him. “Yeah. I need you to contact everyone who has agreed previously to work with and help me. We are ramping up the next phase of my plan.”A sinister smirk bubbles up, and I don’t bother to hide it.

I tiptoe out of Casper’s room and quietly shut the door behind me. A few staff wait anxiously in the hallway. I clear my throat and turn towards them. “Someone needs to stay with him at all times right now. He is having the same recurring nightmares, and only a soothing touch will ease his mind and let him move past the dream. Do any of you want to sit with him for a bit?”All of them quickly nod their heads. I glance back over my shoulder at the closed door. “I’ll let you decide who goes in right now. Everyone must be quiet and not wake him up. I just got him back to sleep. I don’t think he slept at all last couple of nights.”They nod and look at each other, silently debating on who should go in first. My heart aches and my mind swirls. Silently, I turn and head down the stairs. I’m not sure where I’m going, but I need to do something. When I reach the bottom of the stairs, one of the staff timidly calls out, “Please, use the wheelchair.”Without looking back, I nod and

KatieI sit beside Casper’s bed and stare down at him. The last few days have been a whirlwind of people and emotions. Working with the doctor and our family and friends, Casper has finally calmed down and realizes Tiffany can’t hurt him here. He feels safe at home, but the fear isn’t gone or under control. At any minute, something random might spark his fear again and he will have another panic attack or a terrible nightmare. My rage continues to bubble under the surface, just waiting for something to trip me. When I get my hands on that woman, she will find out I’m not the naïve person she thinks I am. If I do it right, I’ll instill fear in her to the point she will never think of doing something like this again. Being a doctor has advantages people wouldn’t think about.Mark walks into Casper’s bedroom. “Is he asleep?”I nod. “Yeah.

MarkI take a deep breath as I walk into the venue with my parents, wearing the same black tuxedo I did for the charity event. Katie and Casper are home, per my request. Tonight will probably be stressful and potentially traumatizing, which neither of them need. It is best to finish this off and give Katie the details later. If things go the way I’m thinking they will, Katie should see everything through social media. In addition, Casper is still healing from the last traumatic event, and he doesn’t need another one on top of it. I could the see fear in his eyes when we were talking about tonight’s event, and there is no way I was going to put him through that and make his mental health worse. My mother pats my arm. “Are you alright?”I nod. “Yeah.”My father glances to his side at me. “Are you ready for what needs to be done tonight?”A snort slips from me. “Yes. I’m more than ready. I’m hoping everything will go according to our plan, and Tiffany will learn her lesson.”

Her Secret, the Billionaire's Heir Epilogue - Katie
With a glass of sparkling cider in one hand, I carefully wipe of the crumbs from the front of my floor length formal dark red dress. The paper napkins I’m using snag on a few of the embedded jewels along the front. My frustrations bubble up as I grind my teeth together. But this little setback can’t damper my mood. This is a big night for me. I’m finally accomplishing another one of my goals and dreams. Mark waves a couple of white linen napkins in the area as he rushes towards me. “Look what I have found. Stop trying to get the food off. I’ll get it done.” His playful smile widens as he gives me a wink. “In no time, I’ll have you back looking as beautiful as ever.” I sigh and let my shoulders drop. In his black tuxedo, he bends over in front of me and very carefully wipes all the little food particles off me without smearing it across the smooth satin fabric. I glance around the venue and notice a few people giving us some questioning looks, but no one has the courage

As he opens his mouth, my parents and brother casually walk into the house. My brother’s eyes pop wide open as he looks around, taking everything in and whispers, “Wow!”My heart nearly stops and my breath hitches. What are they doing here? They don’t have anything nice to say to me. Why would Mark bring them here? Why?My smile evaporates and morphs into a frown. I shuffle backwards as I slowly shake my head. My father gives me a stern look, which also holds his usual scrutinizing eye. The one which says I’m not good enough. My chest tightens. I don’t want them here. Casper runs towards us. “DADDY! YOU ARE HOME!!” He holds his little arms wide open and leaps into his father’s waiting arms. Normally, I would smile and join them in a group hug, but I can’t take my eyes off my family. The only thing that connects us is our DNA. Nothing else they have done would be something a normal family would do. My brother ignores Casper, stilling gawking at the inside of the house
Her Secret, the Billionaire's Heir Chapter 92 - Katie
I cradle my adorable daughter in my arms as I sway back and forth. Her long dark lashes flutter as she fights to stay awake. I softly hum a tune and gently pat her bottom. Everything seems so peaceful and perfect now, but it wasn’t months ago when she was born. When I had finally woken up, I nearly had a panic attack. My pregnant belly was gone, and my precious baby was nowhere to be seen. Luckily, Mark and Casper were there at my bedside, along with his parents, making sure I knew everything was alright. Our precious little baby was with the doctors, but Mark vowed to do whatever he needs to ensure our daughter’s health. I would be lying if I said his words calmed me down. Nothing he could say would ease my nerves, but it was his calm voice and the determination in his eyes which finally settled me down. Our daughter had to stay in the intensive care unit for a few days, but she was a fighter and could soon come home. Mark’s mother steps into the room and softly asks, “Is
Her Secret, the Billionaire's Heir Chapter 91 - Katie/Mark
KatieThe past few months have been a blur. If I didn’t have constant reminders on social media about it, I might forget all about Tiffany and the nightmare she caused. I stare down at my phone on the dining room table and at the latest social media post from a friend. I shake my head and sigh. When are they going to let this end? The post has a picture of Tiffany, which I’m sure she doesn’t know someone took, where she is picking up garbage in the company’s parking garage next to the building. Her previous high-end designer clothes are nowhere to be found, and she is wearing the company’s maintenance uniform. Below her picture is a caption wondering who the designer of the classy outfit is. I roll my eyes.Tiffany is working to pay off our doctor bills without complaining. Mark’s mother is still fuming at her, but she isn’t throwing it in Tiffany’s face. Everyone else should follow that example.Mark kisses the top of my head and rubs my shoulders. “How are you feeling thi

I sip on my champagne while I raise an eyebrow, hiding my smirk behind the glass. Tiffany holds her head high and walks up to a person she thinks is me, but it isn’t. He looks similar to me, but that is where the likeness ends. Her face contorts and her mouth opens slightly, but nothing comes out. I choke down a chuckle. The decoy stares at her and grunts, “What do you want? You look like you have something you want to say to me.”She continues to stare at him for a few moments before she shakes her head. “No. I thought you were someone else. I’ll go look for him elsewhere.”Her eyes quickly scan the area. I duck behind a few other guests as she looks in my direction. It isn’t time for her to see me yet. Her gaze locks on the back of another guy on the other side of the room, who she thinks is me. I choke down another laugh. It is only going to get worse from here on out. Before she reaches the guy, he turns around, and she instantly halts in her tracks. Her face conto
