Secrets of the Night: A Billionaire’s Hidden Heirs Chapter 8
Kate Pov I wondered who could be knocking. I wasn’t expecting any visitors and hadn’t made any friends in this neighborhood. Nevertheless, I stood and walked toward the door. When I opened it, I saw a tall woman standing there. "Kate!" the woman screamed. I furrowed my brows as I eventually recognized her. "Lily!" We hugged each other dearly, and I quickly let her in. Lily had been my roommate at the university. Throughout my four years there, we had lived in the same room, but we lost contact somehow after graduating. "How did you find out where I live?" I asked, still basking in the joy of reuniting with my old friend. "I didn’t. I actually came here to apologize for what my son did. He didn’t allow his friends to play ball with him, and I think that’s selfish," she said. Then she paused, her eyes widening. "Wait, are the three boys yours?" "Yes, they are," I responded. Lily furrowed her brows. "Oh my days! I always thought their parents must be so lucky. Oh wow! I do

Kate Pov "I beg, spare me this time," I pleaded even further. Even though I knew that pleading at this moment was too risky, if I agreed to do this, he would confirm his wrong perception of me. I was never that type of woman a slut, or a prostitute. That wasn’t me.His phone rang at that moment, and his attention was swift from me. I was kneeling in front of him before his phone rang. He took one more look at me before walking over to his phone.He picked it up, and checked the caller ID, he sat and answered it. The caller was the only one who had the guts to call him at this hour."Hello, son," the voice of an elderly woman came through.Not wanting to have a conversation with his mother in front of a stranger, he declared, "Out!"I stood quickly. The call saved me. I quickly walked out.Oh gosh! A narrow escape again!I had become so emotionally destabilized that I couldn’t stay another minute in the club. I found Leona at once and told her that I couldn’t stay here anymore and th

Kate Pov I wanted to scream, but the hand covering my mouth was too quick. I calmed myself and tried to see the person's face. When I realized it was Lucas, I shoved him away angrily."Why did you drag me here?" I snapped, stepping out of the dark space and glaring at him with pure disgust."Don't pretend like you don't miss me," Lucas smirked."Disgusting. After six years, do you still think I haven't gotten over what happened?" I asked, my voice laced with bitterness."It's not my fault that you are barren," Lucas scoffed. "And your little act, pretending to be Reberto’s wife, is just laughable. You think I don't know? Reberto and I were childhood friends, and we used to be best friends. Over the years, we've grown apart and aren't on good terms anymore, but I still know a lot about him. You, of all people, can never be Reberto's type.""Whether I'm his type or not, can I know why you are so concerned? You already have your secretary, right? I hope you've married her and that she's

Kate Pov Daniel sighed, looking at me with a pitiful expression. He could tell that I was going through a lot. He might not know the details, but he could discern it."Can you tell me how you have been? I know we've been distant, but I still kept track of you. The last thing I knew about you was that you and your husband divorced six years ago," Daniel said."I'm fine. I'm losing my patience, and I will just walk out now. I don’t want to be rude, so please go straight to the point," I said, trying to hold back my anger and pain.Daniel, of course, understood the reason for my anger toward him, so he went straight to the point. "A woman from a rich and powerful family approached me a long time ago when her husband's company was almost going bankrupt. And although I'm not half as rich as they are, I had what it took to help them at that moment."He continued, "I realized that if I simply asked the woman to pay me back in the future, the payback wouldn't last. So, I did what I thought w

Kate PovI alighted from the cab that dropped me at one of the biggest mansions in Silvercrest. The building was extremely large and tall—so massive that even if seven generations were living inside, they would all be comfortable.This woman is indeed very wealthy, I thought as I stepped in. I checked my wristwatch and saw that I was not late yet. Seeing that the main large door wasn’t closed, I stepped inside and appeared in a large living room with royal chairs and tables.“Hey, Kate,”I turned and saw the woman who had been helping me, Cora. I quickly walked toward her. “Mother, good morning!”“Welcome, dear. I’m glad you eventually came as promised,” she said warmly, gesturing for me to sit. I obeyed.“He will be here soon, okay?” Cora said to me, and I nodded. My heart pounded nervously. I didn’t know if her son would be ugly or handsome, kind or terrible, respectful toward women or a complete nightmare. Whichever way, I was about to find out.“I personally can’t wait to see your

Kate Pov I was now in the mansion with my six kids. They were in Bella’s room, and I had told them that she was their second grandma. She would be responsible for taking care of them, but since I lived in the mansion, I would always check up on them and play with them as usual.Most importantly, I warned them again and again to refer to me as ‘aunt’ instead of ‘mum.’ When they asked why, I told them it was necessary for now. I explained that it would keep us all protected. Though they couldn’t fully understand the reason behind it, they agreed.My greatest fear was that one of them might mistakenly call me ‘mum’ in front of Roberto.I sat on the couch in the large room where Roberto and I would be staying, smiling as I remembered how Cora and Bella had showered my kids with so much love when they saw them.But my smile soon disappeared when Roberto walked in."Successfully married to the most powerful man in the city. Now your dream has come true, right?" he said."That's not my drea

Kate Pov Jason leaned toward Nathan and whispered, "Is he our dad?""Don't you see that he looks like you and Liam?" Nathan answered, and Jason observed carefully, confirming it.Could he really be our dad? Jason thought. He turned to Liam and whispered, "Do you think this big uncle is our dad?""If he is, he would have taken a look at us, but he just ignored us," Liam replied.Roberto glanced at Nathan, who had just called him "Dad," then turned back to Bella with a smile. "Off to work, Mother." He walked away majestically.I had been extremely tense and immediately ran toward them. "Nathan , why would you call him Dad? Huh?" I tried to keep my voice calm despite my anger.Nathan saw how upset I was and immediately began to cry.I softened, my anger melting away. "Sorry, dear." I moved closer and comforted him. "That man is just an uncle. He's not your dad. You can call him Uncle but not Dad, okay?"Nathan nodded in response.I greeted Bella, exchanged a few words with her, then tur

Kate Pov He watched as Bella led the children to her room. Were those six children really hers? But she couldn’t have abducted six identical kids at once, even if she had wanted to.He said “he needed to find a way to talk to at least one of them whenever He got the chance to”.Meanwhile, I sat in the bathroom, frustrated. I was perched on the edge of the bathtub with only a towel wrapped around my body. How heartless could this man be? If he wanted to lock me up, did it have to be in the bathroom?Hours passed, and night fell. I had kept hoping he would change his mind, but he didn’t. To make matters worse, I hadn’t eaten dinner, and I was so hungry.As the night fell so deeply, I realized there was still no sign of anyone coming. Did that mean I wouldn’t get to check on my children tonight?I walked to the door and knocked. No response. I banged on it in frustration, then screamed, yet still, I got no reply.I continued hitting the door with all my strength, but it was too strong. I

Kate Pov When I arrived at Chipper Company, I was asked a few questions by the manager, after which I signed up as an employee. Chipper Company deals mainly in the production and selling of shoes and clothes. Since I had no technical knowledge about how to produce shoes or clothes, I was placed in the marketing department.I sat at my desk and glanced at the numerous colleagues seated around their desks. They seemed like lovely people, even though I hadn't spoken to anyone yet.Navigating through the monitor before me with my mouse, I immediately got engrossed in work. When it was break time, I hibernated the system and heaved a sigh of relief. It had been such a long time since I had been this engrossed in work.Remembering that I hadn't even eaten before leaving Roberto’s house, I decided to go for lunch. I stood and asked one of my female colleagues where the company's restaurant was, and she kindly described the location to me.After thanking her, I walked out of the large office

Kate Pov "Mother!" Roberto called Bella. Bella had a look of shock on her face thinking he had overheard us. She quickly forced a smile. "Yes, son. Do you have something urgent to tell me?""You know how much I trust you, right?" Roberto asked."Yes, sure." Bella answered, but her mind seemed unsettled, and her mouth almost quivered. Still, she tried to maintain a calm expression."Yet you lied to me that you are the mother of the children. I overheard the entire conversation because I suspected something was off, especially with the kids' reactions. The love they have for this woman is excessive."Bella didn’t expect the secret to be exposed so soon. "Actually, it was an agreement between your mother and me….to act as the mother to the children."Roberto looked disappointed in Bella, then turned his gaze to me. This slender woman really gave birth to six kids? I could almost see the question running through his mind. Who is their father?Could it be my ex-husband?I was beyond relie

Kate Pov I felt my body being lifted from the bathtub, and then I was placed on the bed. A warm palm rested on my forehead, checking my temperature, before my naked body was covered with a duvet.Roberto stood over me for a moment, watching my face, then turned and walked out of the room.When he got to his own room, he sat on the bed, his mind clearly troubled. I had told him that the children were mine, and he couldn't shake off that claim. Why would I say such a thing? He tried to lay down and get some sleep, but his mind wouldn’t let him rest. Frustrated, he stood up and walked over to his drawer, pulling out an old album.Flipping through the pages, he gazed at the pictures of his late wife. His fingers traced the image of her face."You," he mumbled, his voice breaking. "You should have been alive when the secret about you got exposed."He eventually closed the album and dropped it on the table beside his bed.The entire night passed without him getting a wink of sleep. As soon

Kate Pov I smiled painfully and turned my face away from Roberto. I wondered how he would react when he found out that the six kids were his. The only relief I had was that he was kind to them—he was only cruel to me."Answer my question," he demanded.I had sincerely forgotten the question he asked and immediately stormed my brain to recall it. Before I could remember, I felt his hand on my skirt. I glanced at him and then back at the skirt I was wearing. The black fabric had stopped right above my knee.He pulled the skirt up slowly, his palm brushing against my skin. I instinctively wanted to close my legs, even though I was enjoying it, but his big palm forcefully separated them. His touch reached my panty, and I almost let out a moan, but I quickly swallowed it."Look at me," he demanded, and I obeyed, locking eyes with him. "Don’t take your face away from me, or I’ll throw you out of this car," he threatened.His thumb pressed against the fabric covering my most sensitive spot.

Roberto Pov"Hey," Roberto greeted my remaining five kids, and they greeted back, all happy to see this big man again."Please stay outside with Jack. I want to have a word with your mum," he said. The kids looked at me without saying a word, but it was obvious they were asking if they could leave me.Kate nodded, and they stepped out one after the other."Sophia, why don't you join your brothers and sisters? Your mum and I need to talk," Roberto said to Sophia, who was still holding my hand.Sophia could sense the anxious look on my face and said to Roberto, "You won’t bully her, will you?"Roberto was dumbfounded for the next few seconds. I looked at Sophia and opened my mouth, but words got stuck in my throat. This was the first time I wanted to say a word but hesitated. I was the most powerful man in Silver Crest and could say whatever I wanted without anyone daring to question him.But here I was, standing before a little kid, trying to choose my words carefully."She didn't off

Kate Pov I looked at the door of the room where my children were and I felt so tired and worried. Should I secretly run away at night? My plan to run away the first time was jeopardized by Lucas—perhaps it could work out this time.I walked inside the room and sat quietly by the side. Bella, who had just finished arranging the kids' clothes in the wardrobe, walked over to me and said, "I left you because Roberto gave me a sign to leave. Hope you understand?""Sure," I replied.Bella placed a hand on my shoulder and said, "I'll leave the room so you can spend time with your children.""Thank you," I smiled faintly and watched as she walked out.The moment she was gone, the children ran toward me and swarmed around me. I was so happy to be with them again. I could see the joy and excitement on their faces."Mum, we missed you," Nathan spoke up."So much, Mum…""We miss you, Mum," the children said one after the other as they leaned on my body.I remembered how I had almost died a coupl

Kate Pov I walked into Bella's room with the children, and this time, she was already awake. The moment she saw the kids with me, she sat up and asked, "I’ve been worried since I couldn’t find them here. Did you take them out?""No, ma…" I hesitated, unsure of how to explain that the children had left on their own and wandered around the mansion, playing.Bella counted the children, and a frown crossed her face when she realized only three boys and two girls were present."The children should be six. Where is she?" she asked."That’s Sophia. She can be quiet and weird at times. She refused to follow her brothers and sisters here. I’ll go and get her now," I assured her before stepping out to get Sophia."Come around," Bella said to the children, pointing to them to take their seats. They obeyed, but I could tell they weren’t happy.It had only been a few days since they last saw me, yet it felt like a long time to them. And now that I was here, I had left again. They probably hoped

Kate PovRoberto was busy in his study room when he heard a knock on the door. Anytime he studies inside the room, no one dares to disturb or distract him.Roberto heard a knock at the door….Could it be me he thought?Anger surged through him as he stood up and walked over to the door. Everyone in this mansion, including his mother, knew better not to disturb when he was in his room studying no matter how urgent the matter may be.He.angrily opened the door, and to his surprise, he saw a young, handsome boy standing there.The boy suddenly shouted, "I found him!"He barely had time to process what he meant before another boy appeared, then another, and before He knew it, three little girls joined them.These kids belong to Bella, he later realized. What are they doing around his study room? And how did they even get here?He was disturbed, trying to chase them away, but then a memory hit him—the day one of the boys called Bella "aunt" and asked for their mother in front of him.This

Kate PovI didn’t know what to say anymore. I was in a state of dilemma, my mouth literally shivering. Why didn’t my plan to run away go as planned? I despised Lucas so much for going to pick up my children.After two minutes of silence, the call ended.My hand dropped slowly from my ear. What would Roberto plan on doing to me now? I had angered him, and I was now in deep trouble."The phone, please," Jack requested, and I handed it over to him. I had even forgotten that Jack was standing before me.As Jack walked away, I became so lost in thought that I barely noticed what was going on around me anymore. I was in deep suspense about what Roberto planned to do to me. Most particularly, I was scared that he might go ahead and ask Lucas about it. If Lucas spilled the truth, wouldn’t I be in even bigger trouble?Should I quickly go to Lucas and plead with him to cover up for me? I turned to look at Lucas and saw him smile at me with a mocking expression. At that moment, I remembered how
