Love on Fire with a Billionaire Chapter 43
Adelaide and Kai were having lunch together at a diner near work."Judging by that look on your face, last night's dinner must have been terrible!" commented Kai, observing Adelaide's sullen expression."I did everything you said! All that talk about giving a chance, and she goes and throws wine in Mr. Callahan's face!" grumbled Adelaide."You know she wouldn't have attacked him if she didn't feel offended," Kai said."He called her a brat, but the reason for the argument was Tristan. I didn't hear the whole conversation, but I know she defended him. She still cares about him. I know it," Adelaide confided."She doesn't..." Kai abruptly interrupted his speech, feeling a strange dizziness. His hand gripped the table's edge for support, and he shut his eyes tightly, sensing everything around him spinning."What's wrong? Are you okay?" Adelaide asked, concerned."Yes." He slowly opened his eyes and blinked a few times to regain his composure. "I'm fine! It was just a moment of dizziness.

A bit disoriented due to the fight that had happened seconds ago, Aurora looked at Seraphina, who was standing angrily in front of her."What do you think you're doing?" Seraphina inquired with authority. "You're just standing there doing nothing! Try to calm the guests down and don't let them leave!"Aurora nodded in agreement and went to do as she was told, even though she felt that she wasn't in the best psychological condition to carry out the task. But, after all, work is work.She chatted with the guests and tried to calm them down, conveying tranquility and nonchalance, but inside, she was deeply affected. Being in the same place as Tristan had never been an easy task, but encountering him again after everything that had happened in Tokyo left her feeling sad, angry... a mix of emotions that drove her crazy.When the commotion finally subsided, Aurora headed to the dressing room at the back of the stage. She passed by the models, who seemed restless, including the dark-haired m

Xavier stood in front of the beast's office door. He whispered a brief prayer before entering. He closed the door behind him very carefully, as Tristan was in a bad mood and had a headache; any noise bothered him."Genevieve said she sent for me," Xavier continued, standing with his arms behind his back."I need the security camera footage from my neighborhood," Tristan said, massaging his temples."What are you looking for?""Someone left an envelope at my door last night. I want to know who it was."Knowing that Tristan wouldn't reveal the envelope's contents, Xavier decided to ask, "Is someone threatening you?"Tristan denied it. He wouldn't be surprised if he were being threatened; making enemies was part of the business world."I'll arrange that right away!" Xavier replied."Xavier," Tristan called before he could leave. He leaned on the glass table and interlocked his own hands, looking more serious. "This matter ends here. Don't discuss it with anyone."The Big Ears swallowed h

Aurora's expression contorted in a mixture of shock and indignation as she stared at the figure in front of her, who seemed to have been caught red-handed. She wondered if she was so intoxicated that she was seeing hallucinations."What the hell is this? Am I so drunk that I've started seeing hallucinations?" she thought, staring at the person in question.However, she soon realized it wasn't a hallucination, but an unwanted reality. "It was real, unfortunately," she admitted to herself.Without wasting time, she moved towards the person, taking firm steps, and declared firmly, "So it was you... It was you who had been following me all this time!"The person, who was Violet, raised her hands in a defensive gesture, urging Aurora to stop. It was the first time Aurora saw fear in Violet's eyes, but the apprehension quickly gave way to a serious expression."Hey, no, wait!" Violet pleaded. "Have you completely lost it?"Aurora retorted, "I've always been crazy, not blind!"Violet tried t

Kai lay on his bed, drops of cold sweat sliding down his forehead, dark hair damp and body feverish. Griffin was the only one not in the room; he had gone to fetch a clean cloth for Kai, who was experiencing a nosebleed."Let's take him to the hospital," suggested Aurora."I'm not going! I hate hospitals!" Kai replied, still brusque despite his fever."I didn't ask if you like it or not, and I couldn't care less! You don't have a choice, you're going to the hospital, period!" said Aurora, determined. She was worried about his persistent fever and wouldn't let it worsen due to Kai's stubbornness."Here's the cloth," Griffin said, appearing and handing the fabric to Kai, who placed it to his nose. In no time, the white cloth was stained with blood."Have you been to the doctor?" Griffin asked."No, and he refuses to go. He's too stubborn," Adelaide answered for Kai, sitting at the edge of the bed, looking at her friend with a sad expression."It's better that you go, and I suggest you t

It was early morning when Kai left the hospital. His condition was deplorable. He was so tired and unwell that he didn't question Tristan's presence, who, after all, gave him and Aurora a ride.Back at the apartment, Aurora helped her friend into the guest room. He lay down and nestled into the soft covers, gradually drifting off to sleep with the scent of lavender filling his nostrils. Aurora turned off the lights and gave one last look to Kai before exiting. She walked to the living room, where she saw Tristan standing in the middle of the room, his hair and clothes damp from the rain."How is he?" Tristan asked."With a fever, but the doctor said it's normal," she replied, looking downcast. "Thanks for the ride.""Do you need help with anything else?""No... you can go now." She went to the door and opened it, waiting for him to pass."Are you sure?""I am."He looked at her for a while. He knew she was lying, but he could understand her perspective. She wanted to be alone and proc

Days later, Tristan had never been so impatient. Days had already gone by, and he still didn't have a response from Aurora. He didn't want to pressure her, but the anxiety was unavoidable. Every day, he checked his phone, looking for any message or missed call from her."Tristan!" Xavier barged into the boss's office."Don't you know how to knock?" Tristan set his phone down on the table."Sorry, Genevieve is no longer here to announce me... anyway, I just wanted to remind you about the early meeting with the Chinese businessmen tomorrow.""I won't forget. Now leave."Xavier nodded and left the office, but returned seconds later."Tristan!""What now?" Tristan looked at him with irritation."Speaking of secretaries, we still need to hire someone to cover that position. I already have a list of candidates and...""I'll look into it later.""Fine." He was about to close the door when he opened it again. "Tristan!""For heaven's sake, Xavier!" He exploded. "Did you decide to spend the da

Luna watched through a glass pane as children between the ages of three to ten played in a small room filled with vibrant colors and educational toys. She smiled with emotion, thinking that soon one of those small and innocent beings would become her son or daughter."Miss Luna," a woman with black hair, but white roots, approached her. She smiled weakly as if regretting something. "I'm sorry, but I have bad news."Luna's smile vanished. "What happened?""The judge did not approve your request for the adoption process," she said, noticing Luna's saddened expression."B-but why not?""Well, you're a single woman who lives for her own business. We can't entrust a child to be locked up at home, without receiving care and attention.""But I won't do that! I will be very present in their life and provide the best conditions.""I'm sorry, but the decision has been made...""What can I do to change your mind?" She persisted, desperate. "I'll do anything!""Miss, there's nothing we can do. Ag

Love on Fire with a Billionaire Chapter 94 - The End
Six years later...Tristan, Aurora, and Adelaide now formed a close-knit family, brimming with love and joy. The room with the world map wallpaper looked a bit different, adorned with soft colors and children's toys, reflecting the happiness that had filled that space. However, the image of the map still adorned the wall because the little girl had a deep fondness for that decoration.Adelaide, now six years old, lay on the bed with her Corgi dog, Toby, by her side. She was engrossed in a book of pony stories, her latest passion. Tristan approached and gently stroked his daughter's red hair as she read."Still in love with ponies, my dear?" he asked with a smile.Adelaide nodded enthusiastically. "Yes, Daddy! They're so cute and magical!"Tristan smiled, reminiscing about the time she used to call him 'pony.' "Maybe one day, when you grow a bit more, you can ride a real one."Adelaide's eyes lit up at the idea. "That would be amazing, Daddy!"Meanwhile, Aurora stood in the doorway, wa

Five years later...Aurora felt every heartbeat quicken as the contractions intensified. Her breath was deep and irregular, and her hand was firmly clasped in her husband Tristan's, who remained by her side, providing strength and support. The delivery room was immersed in a silence heavy with anxiety and anticipation.The soft candlelight spread throughout the room, creating a warm and tranquil atmosphere. The scent of lavender hung in the air, mixed with the electric tension that enveloped the couple. The walls were lined with white tiles, reflecting the serenity of the moment that was about to unfold.The obstetrician, Rose, moved with a comforting calmness as she prepared for the baby's arrival. She smiled, instilling confidence in Aurora, whose eyes welled up with tears. Aurora knew that she would soon cradle the fruit of her love with Tristan in her arms.The contractions now came with an almost rhythmic regularity, causing Aurora to focus even more on her breathing. She took de

It took only a matter of weeks for Xavier to gain full custody of Christian, following Genevieve's sentencing to decades in prison. Soon after, he announced Amelie's pregnancy and their engagement.It wasn't easy for Violet to cope with what had happened to her older sister. Despite always finding Genevieve's behavior towards Tristan and Aurora strange, she never imagined that her uncontrollable way of loving would lead her to that point. Aurora stayed by her side in the first few days until Violet decided to spend some time at her parents' house in another city. However, she promised to return for her friend's wedding.And she kept her promise.Aurora sneaked out of the room where she was getting ready, and since she already knew the way - the ceremony was taking place at Mr. Callahan's mansion, which he had lent for the event - she hid behind a wall where she could observe the beautifully decorated hall. She saw Violet among the guests, looking stunning in her purple dress, talking
Love on Fire with a Billionaire Chapter 91
A suffocating panic crawled through Aurora's body as she was pushed through the corridors of the mansion, not knowing exactly where she was going; where Genevieve wanted to take her."Move faster!" Genevieve ordered, pressing the barrel of the gun against her head.Aurora swallowed hard and quickened her pace. She was terrified, her chest felt tight, and her mouth bitter, but she tried to think of a way to change things. She wouldn't surrender, let alone die there."Here. Go in," Genevieve indicated a door, and even though Aurora was confused, she obeyed. It was Tristan's office."Genevieve..." Aurora spoke softly, even though she was in complete agony at the sight of the brunette pointing a gun at her with an empty expression. "Please, think carefully about what you're about to do...""I should have done this a long time ago! It's the only way this hell will end," Genevieve replied."No, it won't." Aurora shook her head. "Genevieve, killing me won't make Tristan love you...""I don't

If news reached Thomas's ears, it would take only a few days for him to share it with the entire United States. Aurora called Klaus, who wasn't even in America at that moment, wanting to tell him before someone else did, but it was too late. He already knew, thanks to Thomas, of course. Klaus still made her swear over the phone that she wouldn't plan anything related to the ceremony until he and Frederick returned from their honeymoon.Tristan planned to tell his father when they visited him on Sunday. Mr. Callahan wasn't very connected to gossip, so it was quite likely that he didn't know the news yet. And even if he did find out, he wouldn't be the type of person to care about such things.Despite the immense joy, Aurora's heart ached every time she imagined her sister helping her with the wedding details. She imagined that Adelaide would cry all the time, from the first dress fitting to the end of the party.Aurora continued with her treatment and medications. She still woke up in

Many hours later, they were still on the couch, holding hands. Aurora rested her head on Tristan's shoulder, and he also rested his head on hers."I had an idea," she said."Here it comes," Tristan replied with a smile."Hey!" Aurora pulled away from him, indignant. "My ideas are always brilliant.""And what's this one?""Well..." Aurora moved to sit on his lap, with one leg on each side of his body and her hands on his broad shoulders. "I thought we could invite our friends and have a non-traditional ceremony. It could happen here, or maybe in a hall. You would wear a suit, and I'd wear a beautiful dress... and some sexy lingerie for later."He watched her closely."Aurora, are you asking me to marry you?" Tristan asked.She blushed but managed to nod."Have you ever noticed that every time we go in opposite directions, and that's been happening since the day we met, we end up finding each other again without intending to?" Aurora began to explain. "I don't want to rely on luck again

"What are you doing here?" Tristan's question burst into that tension-filled space, unleashing a torrent of long-held emotions."I came to lay it all on the line!" the redhead declared, adjusting her tone to convey determination. "And just so you know, no, I'm not drunk, and I'm fully aware of what I'm about to say, so pay close attention." Tristan, relaxed with his arms crossed and leaning against the door frame, kept his gaze focused as he listened attentively. "This whole 'being friends' thing isn't going to work. Sure, I agreed to it at first, but I also said we should let our hearts go where they wanted. And that's the point. My heart only goes to you... even if you are a Mr. Arrogant, cheeky, proud, masochistic, and thick-headed jerk!"A glimmer of amusement appeared in Tristan's eyes as he commented, "That was the longest one yet."Aurora scolded him, "Don't interrupt me, or I'll lose my train of thought."Tristan, with a touch of sarcasm, teased, "Are you sure you haven't had

Aurora decided to go to Luna's house."Sorry for showing up without giving you a heads up, Luna."Luna laughed and replied, "I appreciate it, actually! The men in the house are all out right now, and when that happens, I'm stuck here, bored out of my mind." Observing the younger woman's distressed face, she realized something was wrong. "What's going on? You seem nervous."Aurora explained, "I need to talk to you."Luna nodded, concerned, and promptly settled down on the living room couch with the young woman."Go ahead, speak.""After I went to New York, did Tristan... did he say anything to you? I mean, did he ask about me?"Luna chuckled, but her mood faded when she saw Aurora's worried expression. "Seriously? Oh yes, he asked about you all the time."Aurora's heart raced, a good feeling she hadn't experienced in a while."Really?""Klaus told me that you two got back together at his wedding. I thought he had already told you."Aurora laughed at her friend's gossip, but then her ex

An hour of comfortable silence stretched, during which Aurora briefly dozed off, and Tristan contemplated his life while gently caressing her hand."Whose room is this?" Aurora asked, noticing the miniature cartoon character figurines on top of a dresser on the other side."Mine. Well, it used to be mine," Tristan replied."Really?" Aurora got up, full of curiosity, and went to the other side of the room to examine closely."My father said he didn't touch anything after I left, except for the clothes I left behind," explained Tristan."What happened to them?""They were donated. Besides that, everything's the same."Aurora noticed that the miniatures were the only decoration with a personal touch. There was nothing else. No photos or CDs of any bands he used to like. Since childhood, he had a rather minimalist taste."Your father must have missed you," she commented, hearing his incredulous grunt. "Seriously. After all, you're still his son. I can't think of any other reason he wouldn
