All Chapters of The Billionaire's Last Minute Bride: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

BlueI’m not sure what’s going on with Artemis, but he was on his phone most of the day and long into the night. He didn’t come to bed last night until after midnight. There has also been the few times he’s purposefully stepped out of the room to answer phone calls. Most women would be worried that their new husband might be cheating but that isn’t where my mind goes. The man is emotionally awkward with everyone except me and that’s still a work in progress. No, I don’t think he’s having an affair. It actually makes me laugh because he would be so mean that the woman would be crying for days. So, what is he up to? My curiosity has been festering but he has officially distracted me by telling me that he’s planned for us to visit the girl we saw on the adoption website in person. Since then, I have been silently freaking out next to him as Bryant drives us to the location. “Everything will be fine.” Artemis says, taking my hand and giving it a squeeze. “You thi

Blue“Who are they?” Lilly asks as I push her chair toward the car. “Those are our bodyguards.” Artemis says. “Bodyguards? Why do you have them?” She asks, sounding too grown up for her age. It’s not uncommon for kids like us to grow up a lot faster than we should. When you have to depend on yourself most of the time it comes easy. In my case I had to grow up so that I could help my foster brothers and sisters. I still regret not taking them with me when I left, but after what my foster father did, I couldn’t stay even for them. When I was free, I had called an anonymous tip to the police and hoped it would help get the others placed somewhere else. After what my foster parents did, I guess the police hadn’t listened to me. I told them one day a kid would end up dead and it wouldn’t be an accident because I almost was. “To keep us safe. Artemis is a very important man and sometimes people don’t respect his privacy. This way he can do his job without having to worry about getting

BlueThe three of us enjoy pizza at the table in our brand-new dining room. Lilly is shy but answers most of our basic questions to get to know her better. By the time we’re done eating she looks exhausted so I help her get ready for bed. She shows me how I can help her, and I pay close attention. I want to be sure to help her as much as she will let me. It kills me to see her struggle to do such small things that most of us see as easy. For years she’s basically taken care of herself, and I understand but I wish I could do more to help her. Still I know I can’t push her, so I will let her tell me when she wants me to step in and help her. It ends up that she needs help being moved to the bed, but she is able to change into her pajamas as soon as she’s settled. Brushing her teeth was a little bit of an odd thing, but it’s because the counter isn’t wheelchair friendly. That’s going to need fixing soon. “Good night Lilly. If you need anything don’t be afraid to call us o

ArtemisMy plan to take some time to be with Lilly and Blue has quickly gone to shit. Dane had been keeping my father under house arrest since the family meeting from hell, but we couldn’t keep him much longer after the media circus. Questions were starting to come up about where he was, and I don’t want the police coming into my home looking for him. As much as I would like Dane to continue torturing my father, I don’t want the police showing up looking for him, so we have no choice but to let him go. Not that it matters much since Alan I have already set everything up for my father’s fall from his throne. My grandfather has been out of the country for a couple of weeks now and hasn’t been in touch so I’m not sure what he’ll do when he hears what’s happening, but I’m sure it won’t be pretty. Unlike my father though he thinks long term and that means he won’t turn his back on his grandkids because we carry his legacy. He will most likely pull responsibilities and funds from

BlueI don’t know what’s been going on but I’ve been exhausted all week. My guess is that I caught some sort of virus somewhere and my body is working overtime trying to fight it. I haven’t had any other symptoms yet but they'll show up soon I’m sure. For now I’ve been drinking this ginger tea Abigail recommended. She’s been drinking it for morning sickness and told me it’s not bad. It’s good but it hasn’t helped with how tired I am. Over the last two weeks I’ve spent more time sleeping than I’ve spent awake. It helped that Lilly was in school so I didn’t have much to do and I could rest, but now with what happened I’m not sure if we will be sending her back there. I’ll have to figure out how to kick this weird bug so I can focus my attention on her. When I’m awake enough to be productive I’ve been looking into other schools that might work for Lilly. There are schools for kids with disabilities but not the kind she has, so that one’s out. Another one is more wheelchair fri
