The Billionaire Desires Chapter One Hundred And Nine
I freshened up and dressed in comfortable clothing, not having any plans for the day. As I strolled downstairs, the delightful aroma of a mouth-watering breakfast greeted me."Something smells nice," I remarked, descending the stairs. My dad, Ava, and my mum turned towards me."Good morning, Dad," I greeted, giving him a peck on the cheek. He smiled, but I could sense it didn't reach his eyes. "Mummy, what's up?" I asked her."Nothing much," she replied, giggling like a schoolgirl. I glanced between her and Dad, choosing not to dwell on it. Instead, I playfully ruffled Ava's hair, knowing she didn't particularly like that. The atmosphere seemed a mix of warmth and unspoken tensions, leaving me navigating the morning with a blend of emotions."Stop, Harper. Not funny," Ava said, rolling her eyes.My mother finally noticed the substantial rock on my finger, and her eyes widened. "Oh, my sweet Jesus, did he propose?" she asked, almost teary-eyed."Yes, Mum!" I exclaimed happily."Oh, Har

They were both locked in a kiss.Ava and I approached them, but they seemed completely lost at the moment. I had to cough to get their attention. Amelia hastily pulled away from Axel, her face tinged with red. I shot her a look that said, "You have a lot of explaining to do.""Hi, Axel, good to see you again," I greeted. He pulled me into a friendly hug with a broad smile, seemingly unfazed by the fact that I had caught him kissing Amelia.Amelia gathered herself and finally said, "Hi, Harper. I didn't know you would get here this fast." She seemed slightly embarrassed, and this new side of Amelia left me puzzled. Ava also exchanged greetings with Axel and Amelia. I noticed Ava's knowing smile as she looked at Amelia."Ladies, it's nice to see you again, but I'd have to be on my way," Axel announced. Moving closer to Amelia, he gave her a lingering kiss on the cheek. She blushed, and we all waved him goodbye. Amelia gazed at Axel's departing figure, lost in her thoughts, and Ava and I

Shock, curiosity, and concern were visible in his expression. The warmth in his eyes dimmed momentarily, replaced by a furrowed brow as he processed the unexpected revelation. His grip on my hand tightened slightly. After a thoughtful pause, he finally spoke, his voice measured but filled with empathy."Harper, I'm sorry that you're going through such a difficult situation, and it must be hard for your dad as well," he said.A tender moment passed as he leaned across the table, his thumb brushing gently against the back of my hand. His words jolted me back from my thoughts, and I listened intently as he revealed, "You know, I investigated your dad's company when we agreed to, and I discovered some shady dealings that I can't go deep into. This concerns both families, and I'll stop at nothing to bring light to the issue at hand."His gaze bore into my eyes, and he voiced with vulnerability, "I hope that doesn't stop what we have going on because I can't afford to lose you for any reaso

Harper's POVThe gentle notes of the music enveloped us, and I melted into Josh's embrace, our bodies moving in sync with the soft melody. Feeling his face against my neck, I sensed a mix of vulnerability and comfort. It seemed like he found solace in my presence, especially considering he appeared a bit nervous when I first entered. I couldn't help but wonder about the source of his anxiety.Eventually, he gazed deeply into my eyes, allowing his defenses to crumble. In that vulnerable moment, everything became clear.

He rushed out of the house in a hurry, leaving me concerned about where he was going."Where are you heading to?" I asked, seeking some clarity."In between runs," he explained. "I'll be back," and with that, he disappeared.Choosing not to dwell on Josh's sudden departure, I settled in, shedding my clothes and seeking solace in a rejuvenating bath. As the water washed away the external worries, my mind wandered to the profound changes ahead—how this tiny life growing inside me would reshape everything. Thoughts of my job, career aspirations, and the sacrifices that lay ahead for the baby made me ponder whether my life would ever be the same again.The weight of concern settled on me as I pondered whether my parents would be pleased with this sudden turn of events.

In my dream, I found Josh with another woman I didn’t know. His demeanor and the presence of the strange lady triggered a sense of fear. In a surprising turn of events, Josh forcefully removed my engagement ring and, with a swift motion, turned to the unknown woman.

"Yes, I love him, Mum," I replied with a smile."Thank you so much, Mom," I added sincerely."Don’t mention it," she said."But, Mom, how do you deal with a man who has a big ego?" I inquired.She laughed, saying, "You mean all men? Yes, my daughter, all men have egos. Manage it, okay?" she laughed. "Love can soften even the largest egos," my mom continued. "It's about finding a balance between expressing your own needs and understanding his perspective. Communication is key; let him know how you feel, and encourage him to share his thoughts too. It's a journey of compromise and growing together."As her words sank in, I felt a sense of comfort and guidance."Okay, Mommy, I appreciate you," I said as she left for her room."But I was ready to make things work with Josh, no matter what, and to do that, we had to have open communication."Ava had excitedly mentioned throwing a bridal shower for me. Even though I wasn’t feeling up for it, she went ahead with the plans, with Amelia’s assi

His honesty touched me, and I felt a pang of empathy despite the pain I had endured. "All I wanted was for us to talk about our problems, to understand what went wrong, and to ease some of your pain. But in doing so, I realize now that I hurt you too."He moved closer to me, his eyes pleading for forgiveness. "I'm very sorry, Harper. Please forgive me. I know it might take time for you to forgive me, but I just want you to try."I took a moment to absorb his words, feeling a mix of emotions swirling inside me. Despite the hurt, I could see the sincerity in his eyes. As I looked at him standing before me, vulnerable and remorseful, I knew that forgiveness was possible, even if it would take time.As he pleaded with me, I remained silent, my emotions swirling inside me like a storm."I'm not going to leave here unless you promise to forgive me, please," he implored, his voice filled with desperation.His words echoed in my mind as I struggled to find the right response.

Josh’s POVI shut the door behind me, and the sound rang in my ears like a blow. I’m left standing in the hallway, my heart feels heavy with Harper’s words. I can barely breathe, the air thick with the realization that I’ve lost her—truly lost her this time. I lean against the wall, running a hand through my hair, trying to collect my thoughts. How did it get to this point? How did I let everything spiral so far out of control? All I wanted was to protect her, to make things right, but all I’ve done is push her further away.

I hurried to the doctor as the door opened, my heart racing with hope. “How is she?” I asked, desperate for good news.Amelia and Axel stood close behind me, their expressions tense as they awaited the doctor’s update.The doctor took a deep breath before speaking. “She is stable for now. We’ve run some tests and carried out x-rays on her brain, considering her condition and the memory loss. It seems like she’s beginning to recall bits and pieces. It’s a positive sign, but we need to be cautious. Memory recovery can be unpredictable, and it’s crucial to provide her with a supportive environment.”I nod, taking in the information. “So, there’s hope she might regain more of her memories?”“Yes,” the doctor confirms. “There’s potential for her to remember more as she recovers. The process can be slow, and we’ll monitor her progress closely.”I held my breath, waiting for more information.“The tests show no severe damage,” the doctor continued. “Her brain activity is normal, and there ar

I open the door and find Mia standing there. I sigh in relief when I see it’s her. “Oh, you made it,” I say, still breathless.“Are you okay?” she asks as I step aside to let her in.“I’m fine, Mai. I just woke up,” I reply.“Girl, you didn’t tell me you just woke up! You look all flustered like someone was giving it to you from behind,” she teases."Oh my God," I groan, collapsing onto the bed, realizing I've got another Amelia in Mai.She gives me a skeptical look. “Harper, don’t tell me you just had a sex dream.”I sit up quickly, eyes wide. “Is it that obvious?” I ask.“Oh my goodness, Harper, don’t tell me my theory is right!” she exclaims.My cheeks burn at Mai’s words, her knowing grin only making it worse. I try to laugh it off, but the sound comes out strangled. How did she guess so easily?

“Oh, don’t worry, Axel. When we meet in Seattle, I’ll fill you in,” I say, laughing. I know he’s eager to hear what I’m talking about.“Don’t you dare, Josh?

It’s a welcome distraction from everything I’m dealing with regarding Harper.“Okay, okay,” I say between laughs. “I know you can’t wait.”“Spill it, man. What’s the news?” Axel presses.“Trisha’s son isn’t mine,” I say, watching as he falls silent. “Say something, man,” I urge, wondering if he knows something I don’t.“That’s a relief, Josh. I’m happy for you, man,” Axel finally responds.“That’s all you’ve got?” I ask, knowing Axel usually has more to say.He gives a nervous laugh. “What do you want me to say? It’s a relief, isn’t it?”“But there’s something about that child’s appearance,” I continue. “He looks like someone I know but I can’t place it. His e
