The Billionaire's Sugar Baby Chapter 36
EMMA POVThe name the doctor had called tugged at a memory, pulling me abruptly from the present. My hand hovered in midair, caught in the space between now and then, a blur of faces and voices swimming before me until Natalie's touch brought me back.“Hey,” she said, her fingers pinching my arm lightly but sharply. Her gaze was expectant, a bit concerned, and just a little exasperated. “Huh” I said “Snap out of everything and be your self, your mom is going to be alright” she said “Yeah…” I replied, blinking to clear my thoughts. “Yeah, send my regards to him, and tell him I appreciate what he did. Truly,I am grateful”.Natalie watched me, her expression softening a bit. “How about her treatment?” she asked, tone practical but probing. “Should they proceed? Do we keep her here? Or… should she be at home, resting with her medications? You have to select one so they can work on her treatment quickly”My gaze slid over to Daniel, who’d been standing quietly just behind her. He met my

EMMA POVRobert’s mind raced, his heart hammering beneath his ribs. She was here, just a few steps away from him. All he had to do was go to her. But his feet felt leaden, held back by the weight of years of unspoken words, regrets, and the tangled mess their lives had become.“Does she… know I’m here?” Robert finally asked, his voice barely more than a whisper.Doctor Caleb shook his head. “Not yet. But… perhaps it’s time? Time to introduce yourself ”“I don't think I should do that, Daniel hasn't introduced us yet” Robert said, his voice barely above a whisper.---Back in her room, Emma shifted restlessly, her gaze fixed on the ceiling. Memories of Robert drifted through her mind like ghosts. She could almost hear his voice, feel his presence. Her heart beat faster, a pang of bittersweet longing settling deep within her chest.But as soon as she closed her eyes, trying to calm her racing heart, a nurse entered, startling her back to reality.“Ms. Emma,” the nurse said with a soft,

EMMA POV“What's the problem?” Daniel asked, his gaze drifting between me and Ava I smirked back at him so he wouldnt know what we were talking about “We were just discussing something important” I said my voice firm.ROBERT POV“What a long day” I said as I dropped my car keys in front of the table, my hands in between my chest as I zipped off.The phone's screen glared back at me, messages lined up, missed calls pinging in one after another. But I couldn't bring myself to respond. I slouched back in the armchair, sinking into its worn leather. My fingers absentmindedly tapped the armrest, my mind drifting. Everything felt hollow.The door swung open without a knock. Carolyn stood in the doorway, her familiar smirk tugging at her lips as she walked in, balancing two glasses and a bottle of wine.“Welcome, Robert,” she purred, eyes glinting as they trailed over me.I sat up, frowning. “A little privacy would be nice, Carolyn. Knock next time,” I muttered, my voice low, weary. But Ca

ROBERT POV Hours passed as I tried to piece together fragments of the night, but it was all a haze. Carolyn had locked herself in the guest room, refusing to speak to me, her sobs echoing faintly through the walls.The kids noticed, their wide-eyed gazes flicking between me and the closed door, sensing the tension. They didn’t ask questions, but the silence was damning, like a silent judgment hanging over me.That evening, I confronted Carolyn.She looked at me with a scornful smile, her lips curving slightly as she crossed her arms. “What do you want, Robert? I already told you everything that happened, do I Have the energy to force you on me? I don't, you did it yourself and you were satisfied,so what more do you want?”“I want answers, real answers, tell me the truth” I replied, my voice a mixture of frustration and desperation. “What happened last night?”“You don’t remember?” she asked, feigning innocence. “Or are you just pretending, so you can escape the blame?”“I don’t trust

EMMA POVI sat outside Mom's hospital room, lost in the serene landscape beyond the window. The gentle rustle of leaves and chirping birds offered a fleeting escape from the weight of her illness. Suddenly, a familiar voice broke the tranquility."Emma."I turned to see Natalie standing behind me, her eyes tinged with a mix of guilt and hesitation."Hey, still here?" I replied softly, my curiosity piqued.Natalie's gaze darted around the hospital corridor before settling on me. "I'm heading home, but I wanted to just stop buy before leaving and apologise for...everything." Her voice trembled.I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What's going on, Natalie? You're being really cryptic, you did nothing wrong."Natalie took a step closer, her eyes locking onto mine. "I know I shouldn't have said such a thing that day. I was stressed, and I took it out on you. I'm so sorry."My expression softened. "It's nothing, Natalie. Friends fight, and we settle." I offered a reassuring smile.Natalie's f

EMMA'S POVI nodded understandingly, I knew the nurses wouldn't want to tell me anything, its their work and it's their right to keep everyone's matters private but how on earth would I know what she came to do.“Emma” A voice called out to me, I looked back only to see a tall, rich man behind me.Robert.I gasped and stepped back, I never knew we could meet one on one in a place like this, I touched my big belly.“Robert?” I said my voice barely above a whisper, he could see the shock in my eyes.Robert stood there, his eyes wide with a mixture of shock and suspicion. His question hung in the air like an invisible weight, pressing on me. “Are you pregnant?” His voice was sharp but not loud, filled with urgency that made my chest tighten.I froze. My mind raced, caught between truths and lies. I could feel my heartbeat drumming in my ears, drowning out the sterile hum of the hospital.Slowly, I dropped my hand from my stomach, the subconscious gesture that must have betrayed me. With

ROBERT POVI froze there, shocked with what I saw, why would Emma be pregnant? And why was she in the hospital? These thoughts lingered in my heads for a while then I saw Daniel. “Daniel” I called out to him and he stopped in his tracks Daniel stood in the hallway, his arms casually crossed over his chest, a friendly smile on his face.“Uncle,” he said, his voice calm, almost too polite, as if he was holding something back.I forced a smirk, though unease prickled under my skin. “Thought you’d left already, I was about to leave since you wouldnt meet your uncle” I replied, my tone sharper than I intended.He nodded, his gaze briefly flickering toward the hospital room down the corridor. “I should have. But I wanted to make sure everything’s running smoothly. She is my mother-in-law, after all. I have to make sure she’s comfortable.”The words landed with a weight I wasn’t expecting. Mother-in-law? I blinked, barely managing a neutral nod.“Take me to see her,it wouldn't be nice if I

The penthouse was silent, save for the faint hum of the city outside. Robert stared at the city skyline, his whiskey glass empty on the counter beside him. His head was spinning, but not from the alcohol, Emma’s sudden betrayal to him was a knife that kept twisting deeper. His nephew. His own blood. And Emma, the woman he had been chasing all his life around, had chosen him.His phone buzzed again. He ignored it, pushing the glass away. He needed air. The penthouse, though vast, felt suffocating tonight. Grabbing his coat, he headed to the one place he knew could distract him: The Velvet Room.---The nightclub was pulsing with life. The bass thumped through the floor, the room dimly lit with streaks of neon. Robert slipped past the crowd, heading for a private booth. He wasn’t in the mood for company, but the anonymity of the club gave him a reprieve from the weight crushing his chest.A waitress approached him, her tray balanced perfectly as she smiled. "Your usual, Mr. Robert?"He

The air in the car was thick with an unspoken tension, one that had grown since Alexander and Mia had received the call earlier that day. They had been in the midst of their normal routines when Robert, with a steady voice, had informed them that it was time. Time to visit their mother. Time to hear the truth.The truth.Both of them had lived with the quiet discomfort of knowing something wasn’t quite right for years, but they had never dared to look closer. Now, the call had come, and there was no turning back. They were going to face their mother, and they knew—on some level—that this visit would shatter whatever image they had left of her.Alexander, the eldest daughter, sat in the passenger seat, staring out the window. His eyes were tired, his face drawn, and though he was only in his early twenties, the weight of the last few months had aged him. Mia, the middle daughter, sat in the back, her arms crossed tightly over her chest. She was fifteen, but there was a maturity to her

The sound of Emma's breath was ragged, shallow, as she struggled against the ropes that bound her wrists. Her mind was racing, frantic with the knowledge that she had been trapped once again. The tightness in her chest had nothing to do with the rope, but everything to do with the realization that she had been caught in a web so tangled, so insidious, she had no idea how to escape.It had started as a day like any other. After hearing the news of Natalie’s death, Emma had tried to move on. Tried to believe that the worst was behind her, that the nightmare of manipulation, lies, and fear was finally over. But in a twisted turn of fate, the very thing she had hoped for had become her worst fear.She had thought they were free. But they were far from it.The sound of footsteps echoed through the empty warehouse, and Emma's heart skipped a beat. She barely had time to react before the door to the room opened. Standing there was James, his eyes cold, calculating."So, we meet again," he sa

The morning light filtered softly through the curtains of Ava's apartment, casting a golden hue on the empty space. It should have been peaceful—a quiet, calm morning. But for Ava, it felt anything but. The air was thick with the weight of the news that had reached her just before dawn.She sat in front of the TV, her eyes glued to the screen as the anchor’s voice filled the room, the words she never thought she would hear reverberating in her mind.“...police have confirmed the death of Natalie Carmichael, 32, found in her apartment under suspicious circumstances. Sources say her death appears to be the result of foul play, and the investigation is ongoing.”The words barely reached her as Ava's gaze flickered to the coffee table where her phone lay, still buzzing with missed calls. The message was clear, but Ava couldn't quite absorb it. Natalie—dead. Ava felt a numbness settle over her, like someone had placed a heavy blanket over her chest. She closed her eyes, trying to make sens

The low hum of the city beyond Natalie’s window did nothing to calm her nerves. The pale glow of her desk lamp cast long shadows across the room, but they did little to chase away the tension that had been building in her chest all day. She had been expecting this. She had known it would come to this. But still, as she stared at the laptop in front of her, a sinking feeling twisted in her stomach.The truth was, she had always known the day would come when her little game would be exposed. She had built it carefully, piece by piece, all the while knowing the stakes were high. The laptop, with all of Carolyn’s secrets in her hands, was her lifeline. Every file, every detail, was carefully documented. Carolyn’s darkest fears, her hidden truths—they were all there. And Natalie had been holding onto them, knowing they would give her leverage when the time came.But now, she wasn’t so sure. Now, she felt more like a prisoner than a player in this twisted game. And that fear was growing wit

The dim light of the café flickered slightly as Carolyn sat at a corner booth, her fingers nervously tapping on the edge of her coffee cup. She had arrived early, more out of habit than necessity. She needed time to think, time to prepare. Her mind was still reeling from the conversation she’d overheard between Emma and Ava. There was something off about Ava—something dark beneath the surface. Carolyn couldn't shake the feeling that Ava had known more than she was letting on. And that unsettling thought had led her here, to this meeting with Natalie.It had taken Carolyn days to arrange it. The plan was simple: give Natalie the money she had promised, ask her what she knew, and—if the time came—take the steps necessary to protect herself. But even as she sat there, waiting, she wasn’t sure which version of herself would show up in the end. The woman who was still clinging to the hope of a happy, intact family, or the one who had begun to realize how deep the betrayal ran.Carolyn glan

The soft light of dusk filtered through the curtains, casting a pale glow over the room. Emma sat on the edge of her bed, her knees drawn up to her chest, arms wrapped around them as though trying to hold herself together. The silence of the house felt suffocating, like a heavy blanket that pressed against her chest, making it hard to breathe. The words the doctor had said kept echoing in her mind, each syllable a sharp reminder of the pain that had settled deep inside her, the loss that she couldn’t yet process, let alone accept.The doctor’s voice had been gentle, kind even, but the truth was still there, unspoken, hanging in the air between them. She would never be able to carry another child. The miscarriage had left scars deeper than she could explain, but it was the doctor’s words that had truly shattered her—words that spoke of a future that now seemed barren and empty. She would never experience the joy of a new life growing inside her, the miracle of childbirth. The thought h

The silence that followed Robert’s departure seemed to hang in the air, thick and suffocating. Alexander could hear the sound of her own breath, shallow and uneven, as though the weight of the moment was slowly crushing her from the inside out. She couldn’t believe what had just happened. Robert, her father, had turned away from her. He hadn’t even tried to understand. Instead, he had dismissed her, as if her words meant nothing, as if all the suspicion and doubt she felt were just the ramblings of an overreacting child.Carolyn stood beside her, a steady presence in the storm of emotions swirling in the room. Her mother’s touch on her shoulder was comforting, but it couldn’t quell the gnawing feeling of betrayal that had settled deep within her.“He’s not listening, Mom,” Alexander whispered, her voice barely audible. She felt the tears prickling at the edges of her eyes but refused to let them fall. She had no room for weakness right now. “He doesn’t believe me.”Carolyn said nothin

The house was quiet, too quiet. The air in the living room felt heavy, thick with the tension that had followed Ava’s abrupt exit. The muffled sound of footsteps moving from one room to another only served to amplify the silence, until Alexander was sure she could hear the sound of her own heartbeat. Carolyn sat across from her, still looking as though she were processing the events of the last few minutes. The room felt like it was closing in on her, the weight of suspicion and the terrifying unknown pressing in from all sides.She couldn’t shake the image of Ava’s face when she had asked her the question. The way Ava had looked at her, that brief flicker of panic, that brief hesitation, followed by the hard, impenetrable defense. It had all felt wrong, as if Ava were hiding something—no, concealing something. The more Alexander thought about it, the more it made sense. Ava’s insistence that she hadn’t done anything, the way she had tried to brush off Alexander’s accusations as if th
The Billionaire's Sugar Baby Chapter 131
___The walls of the room felt impossibly close, pressing in around Alexander like a vise. Her heart raced, her mind spiraling, as the weight of what she had witnessed in the kitchen gnawed at her relentlessly. She wasn’t crazy. She wasn’t imagining things. She knew what she saw. Ava had done something—something that had caused Emma’s miscarriage. She could feel it in her bones, a deep, unsettling certainty that wouldn’t let go.But now, sitting across from Ava, she wasn’t so sure anymore. Ava had denied everything when she asked, had brushed off her questions with a calmness that only made Alexander more suspicious. Ava’s voice was smooth, too smooth, as if she were trying to convince herself as much as Alexander. The words that tumbled from her mouth were rehearsed, practiced—nothing but smoke and mirrors."I didn’t do anything, Alex," Ava said again, her voice soft but firm. "I’m not sure what you think you saw, but there was nothing in that chicken. I just added a little rosemary,
