บททั้งหมดของ The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids.: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

~~Victor~~I sank into the chair, a bewildered expression etched across my face as I listened to Renee claim she is Maddie's sister. My voice wavered, half desperation, half disbelief, as I tried to find answers to a truth that was collapsing around me. "Wait, wait. What are you saying? So everything Maddie knows is all a lie. Did Richard know?"Renee tried to clear the air amid the confusion by saying, "I have no idea about that, our mom could have told him, that's why he hung up on you." Her remarks attempted to sort through the maze of questions that now covered Maddie's identity.How about you, Maeve? Are you familiar with this at all? I looked to Maeve, hoping she could offer some perspective or insight. As the disturbing facts came to light, my hopes for a brief moment of relief vanished."I don't know. Maddie just thought Renee looked like her mom," Maeve confessed. She seemed as puzzled as I was. Tension filled the air as the three of us tried to make sense of the implication

~~Leo~~“I had fun last night, you know that.” Stephanie was under the blanket crawling her way up to my chest with her eyes on my dick.“I know, you are clearly on me.” I rolled my eyes. That's been our routine for the last week. Sex, sex, sex.I honestly don't know what I'm doing with her, apart from how intelligent she can be sometimes in matters that involve her step sister and my step brother, she has no use.“Ohh come-on don't be like that. I know you want it.” She whispered in my earlobes.I immediately harden. What the hell. I have never reacted to her this way before.“Huh, so you want me.” Her lips were all over my neck.I turned her over, laying on top of her. “Don't do that again.” I said pretending to be mad, but she wasn't buying it.“Don't do this?” She brought my head close to her lips, placing her hickey on my neck.I silently moaned in my head, “that's enough.” I stood up from the bed, facing the window.“If you don't want me, then why am I here? I won't let another

~~Maddie~~As I opened my eyes, I realized I was in a hospital bed. The white walls and the smell of disinfectant were a dead giveaway. I felt groggy and disoriented, struggling to remember how I had ended up here."Maddie!" I heard my mother's voice again, this time more urgent. "Maddie, can you hear me?"I turned my head to see my mother standing next to me, looking more concerned than I had ever seen her. My mind was racing, trying to make sense of what was happening. Was I in a dream? Or was I really in a hospital bed? I tried to speak, but my voice was weak and raspy. "Mom... what's happening?" I croaked out."Maddie, you've been in a coma for the past two weeks," my mother said, her eyes filling with tears. "We didn't know if you were ever going to wake up."I was stunned, trying to process what she was saying. A coma? For two weeks? My last memory was of being at work, talking to a client. What had happened? How is she here?“How are you here Mom?” I was getting blurred vision.

~~Maddie~~There was a brief awkward silence before I spoke up, “where is this coming from Victor.” I asked him.He bit his lips, a manner he knows drives me crazy, “ever since I came into your life, it's been hell for. Since the beginning when I made the debt deal with your father.”I stood up from the chair I was sitting on, “and all of a sudden, what, am too good for you. After everything we have been through.” “I'm just saying you are better off without me in your life. And I don't want to be in your life.” There was a flash of regret after he said that, but his eyes quickly turned cold. “Oh my god.” My hands came on my head in discomfort. “What about the kids?” They need protection for being your son's. Leo isn't going to stop coming after them.” “That's why I'm going to take them out for lunch tomorrow, and let the paparazzi take some photos of us and I will also do a press conference.” “That was my thought, we were going to do that as a family.”"I suppose we won't be doing

~~Leo~~Today is a good day, I could feel the cool breeze of New York on my face, and the buzzing sounds of the busy streets of the city.I got into the car with Mark, I know he could sense the anger in me so he kept his distance.I wouldn't let it pass even though I am feeling good today. I am on my way to One of 50 STEEL companies for a contract.50 STEEL is one of the biggest steel industries in the county, from steel to fuel to renewed energy. There isn't an industry they haven't touched. They were the perfect place to nag a deal to improve the company, because without it, I can't change the name of the company."Where were you Saturday?” I asked Mark.“Maddie left the hospital, it was a celebration.” He said.“I don't care, you work for me now.” I said to him,He chuckled, “I don't know what you want Leo, or is it Mr. Leo. I agree to work with you, not abandon my family.” “You won't have much family to care for when I..” “When you what?” He interrupted me, “again with the thre
