All Chapters of Bought by the Billionaire Prince: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

When Ari and Grayson reached Henley's floor, doctors and nurses in white lab coats were moving quickly in and out of Henley's room."No!" Ari yelled, running down the hallway with Grayson and Vickie hot on her heels, but her mother stopped her. In that instance, she felt the life go out of herself, too."Ari! She's okay!" her mother said, grabbing her shoulders."What?" Ari looked toward Henley's room through her tears, suddenly crazed beyond all reason."Ari, look at me!" her mother yelled, placing her hands on both of her cheeks. "This is the team of doctors that Grayson called in."Ari nodded and then bent down to her knees, sobbing hysterically from relief. A moment later, she was being lifted into strong arms and carried down the hallway and into a room."Ssshhhh...." Grayson cooed, pushing her hair back away from her face, holding her on his lap, rocking her back and forth. "It's okay, baby. I'm here... we're going to take care of her... it's okay, baby...." Then he kissed her te

That afternoon, Grayson was still at the hospital with Ari and her family, when his phone rang. He wasn't going to answer it, but it was his father, so he felt compelled to take it. Henley had done well over the night and had held down her lunch. So, he felt he had to speak with his father.He patted Ari's leg and then stood just as the ringing stopped. Ari stood, too, and rubbed his arms. "What's wrong?" "It was my father." Grayson held up his cell phone. "I'll be right back."Ari smiled, inclining her head toward the door. "Go. Take it. Henley's fine."Grayson gave her a smile and then headed out into the hallway.The king answered on the first ring. "Son? Are you still in America?""Yes. Why?" Well, hello to you, too, Grayson thought. "What's wrong?""How is your sister-in-law doing?" his father asked, ignoring the question. "Better, thank you." Grayson paced down the hallway, out of earshot. "Thank you, also, for the number of the specialist. He came right away, and his expertis

A few minutes later, Grayson walked up the steps to Xavier's two-story home setting on twenty acres of land. Grayson had no idea what his brother needed with that much land, unless it was just for privacy. But in the spring Xavier usually started working on the grounds between engagements for the realm, and by summer every inch of it was manicured with flower gardens dispersed over the land. Although Xavier had a gardener for upkeep, he did most of the designing himself. Xavier had always been the one in the family with the green thumb, a trait he had taken it honestly from their mother."It's dark and I can't see much, but the grounds look as beautiful as ever." Grayson gave his brother a friendly slap on the back.Xavier smiled. "Thanks. As soon as spring comes, I plan to make a vegetable garden behind the house this year. I want to bring some of the vegetables to the castle, if all goes well."Right now, snow covered the property, but it still looked great with the blue hue of the m

Wearing a suit dress and heels, Ari walked into J.F.K. International Airport with four bodyguards, headed back home… her home now. Since her sister was now out of danger, it was time for her to go back home to her husband and resume her life in Estrea. Her moment of reprieve from the Crown had been brief, but now it was time to go back in support of her husband.Also, she was looking forward to getting back to a normal life, whatever that was. Ari smirked. Grayson and his family's "normal" was on a whole new level.Her presence in the airport drew unwanted attention, but she had no choice. The Royal Family's private jet was in Estrea."You okay?" Arnold, one of her guards, asked.As soon as Ari made the call to tell Grayson that she was ready to come home, everything happened quickly. Arnold and Ralph, along with two bodyguards that she hadn't met before, flew from Estrea to personally escort her home, at Grayson's command, of course. By the time Ari was packed, the guards were there.

Ari was never so happy in her life for a plane to land as she was when hers landed in Estrea. Between Marcus and being away from Grayson for a while, she was ready to come home. Home. Such a small word that carries so much meaning. It was strange that she now thought of Estrea as her home. Her whole life, Queens had been her home, but not now. Not anymore. Not since she married Grayson.Even if he wasn't a prince, she would still want to be married to him. If she could have chosen any man in the world to marry, it would have been him. Ari just hoped that they could get past everything."Here you go." The flight attendant handed Ari her coat. Although she wasn't sure why, she had warmed up to Ari a bit over the course of the flight. Perhaps she had taken pity on her when she threw Marcus out of First Class.But Ari didn't know or care. She was just glad to be in Estrea. Ari rose from her seat, slung her purse over her shoulder, and hurried to the door. To her surprise, they let her g
