Secrets of the Night: A Billionaire’s Hidden Heirs Chapter 9
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 povI was busy with my laptop when my phone suddenly chirped. I almost ignored it, too engrossed in my work, but at the last moment, I decided to glance at the screen just as the call was about to end.Seeing the caller ID, my brows furrowed. It was my husband's secretary, Melissa. Why would she be calling me? I had only saved her number because she worked closely with my husband, Lucas. On days when I couldn’t reach him at work, I would call Melissa to pass the phone to him.But this was the first time she had ever called me. I quickly answered and placed the phone against my ear, but the filthy sounds that greeted me left me flabbergasted and troubled.I pulled the phone away and stared at the screen again to confirm that it was really Melissa who had called. When I placed the phone back to my ear, the same filthy sounds filled my ears—loud and intense moans, unmistakable sounds of someone having a heated round of sex.I had spoken to Melissa enough times to recognize her voice

Kate Pov I sat in one of the most luxurious clubs until nightfall, when the place truly came alive. Before me were two bottles of alcohol, and I was drowning myself in sorrow. For the past three years of my marriage, I had been entirely faithful to that bastard. I wouldn't even let any man flirt with me, let alone cheat. I trusted him blindly, yet he shattered my heart like it was nothing. The more I drank, the more I hoped to forget my pain, but the alcohol seemed useless. The naked image of Melissa and Lucas kept replaying in my mind like a haunting nightmare. Anger flared within me, and I suddenly stood, my eyes scanning the crowd of dancing bodies. A reckless thought crossed my mind—I needed to pick a random man and have a one-night stand. After all, I was now divorced and single again. My gaze landed on a tall man entering a room, and without thinking, I ran toward him. Before the door could close, I slipped inside. Leaning on him immediately, I used my left hand to shut

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 "Please! I wasn't showing up before you on purpose, and I truly apologize for that night. Please forgive me," I beg. There was a long moment of silence. Anyone close to me at this time would literally hear my heartbeat. It was thumping so heavily that it felt like my heart was ripping apart. I didn't want this fierce-looking man to pounce on me. If he pounced on me, what could I do? I started it six years ago by pouncing on him. I hoped earnestly that he would change his mind. I just wanted to leave this office and run as fast as my legs could take me from this company. He walked toward me, then suddenly turned to his seat and sat. "Leave." Leave? Did I hear the right word? Did he say leave? He was telling me to leave? I began to walk out slowly, hoping I was acting on the right word. I twisted the knob, and the door gave way. Oh my gosh! Once I appeared outside of the office, I heaved a heavy sigh of relief. That was a narrow escape. What made him change his min

Kate Pov I was shocked. Of all the people in the world, why did it have to be him? My heart pounded so hard I could hear it in my ears, and for a moment, I wished the ground would open up and swallow me whole. This man had warned me never to appear before him again, that if I did, he would destroy me. And yet, here I was, standing in his office. Was fate punishing me? "You dared to appear before me again, you cunning woman," the most powerful man in Silvercrest, Roberto Alessandro, said with a dangerous look in his eyes. My lips trembled, and I shook my head desperately. "I… I never knew you were the CEO, sir. I… I never knew." Roberto didn't believe me. His sharp gaze bore into mine, full of suspicion and anger. Everyone in Silvercrest knew that Roberto Alessandro was the CEO of Alessandro Corporation. To him, I must have looked like a fool or worse, a liar. He stood from his seat. The moment I saw him rise, fear surged through me, and I instinctively stepped back. Should
