All Chapters of The Billionaire's Secret Baby : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Samantha“Three, two, one, shoot!”I lifted my shot glass and tipped it back into my mouth. The tequila burned as it slid down my throat. I shivered before sticking the lime into my mouth to suck.“Woohoo!” Mandy exclaimed, already well beyond tipsy. “Another round!”Letting out a laugh, I grabbed her hand, tugging her away from the bar.“Let’s take a breather,” I said. “We don’t need you passing out before midnight.”Mandy blinked at me and nodded. “Oh! You’re right! Thanks for looking out for me, Sam.”I led her to a table and sat her down before turning back to get her some water from the bar.The other bridesmaids made their way over to the table to gather around her, but Jessica stayed back and met me as I reached the bar. She was part of the bridal party as well, though it wasn’t surprising.We lived in a small town, after all. Everyone was pretty much friends with everyone.“How’re you feeling?” she asked me with a grin.I chuckled and sighed. “I’m good. It’s been a while since

SamanthaWhen I woke up the next morning, I briefly wondered if I’d died and gone to hell.That’s how shitty I felt.My head was throbbing, and my stomach churned.I thought I was going to be sick, and I struggled to build up the energy to even get out of bed.At length, I forced myself to open my eyes. Flinching at the muted sunlight coming in through my thin curtains, I slowly pushed myself so I was sitting upright. Slipping my feet to the floor, I sat on the edge of the mattress for a moment as I fought not to vomit on my floor.After several seconds, I felt stable enough to stand, and I staggered to my bathroom. I reached the toilet just in time and emptied my stomach into the porcelain bowl.It took me a while to feel stable enough to push back up to my feet. I washed my face and brushed my teeth, then went back into my room and got dressed.Feeling somewhat normal again, I made my way downstairs to the kitchen and started brewing a pot of coffee. I needed to finish sobering up b

SamanthaI watched as Henry led Ryan out of the kitchen. My chest tightened at the sight, and once again, I found myself trying to push away any thoughts about what could have been if anyone had known that Henry was Ryan’s.It didn’t matter now, though, as I couldn’t go back and change the past. I knew the best thing for everyone going forward was for me to let those thoughts go and focus on the here and now.My parents didn’t stay much longer and didn’t ask me any questions about Ryan, which I was thankful for.Once they’d left, I made my way upstairs. I was curious to see what Ryan was like with Henry. I could hear my son chatting as I neared his bedroom door, and when I peeked inside, I couldn’t help but grin.Henry had Ryan sitting on the edge of his little, twin-sized bed and was holding up one of his trucks to show it off as he explained every single feature of it in detail.“When you back it up, you have to say beep, beep, beep, so everyone knows, okay?” the little boy said in

RyanI couldn’t sleep.I’d been tossing and turning for hours, but I couldn’t get my mind to calm down enough to actually allow me some rest.I couldn’t stop thinking about Sam and Henry.After leaving her house, I had returned home frustrated and confused but as much with myself as with her.Waking up that morning, I’d never have guessed the day would have taken such an incredible turn.Not only had I finally met Henry, but I’d gotten to spend so much time with him…with my son.I knew I’d never be able to go back to the way things had been before. I needed to find a way to keep Henry in my life. I needed to convince Sam that I wasn’t the same guy I’d been seven years ago.For a short period of time, I thought I might have done just that.When she was writhing beneath me, consumed by lust and desire, I’d thought I’d finally broken through with her.However, I had to remind myself that it was one thing for a woman to entrust a man with her body. It was a completely different story when

RyanI drove to Sam’s house to pick her up for our date, and I was more nervous than I’d ever been to take a woman out.Sam wasn’t just any woman, though, and winning her over meant way more than just another notch in my bedpost. I didn’t want to mess this night up.When I arrived at her house, I parked the car in the street, got out, and made my way up to her front door. I took a moment to take a deep breath and steel my nerves before I hit the doorbell. I told myself to play it cool, to use my charm.Finally hitting the doorbell, I held my breath. A few moments later, the door opened, and that breath left my lungs in a rush.“Sam, holy shit…”She was stunning in a black bodycon dress that hugged her curves. It had a sweetheart neckline that showed off a tasteful amount of cleavage, and she’d let her dark brown hair fall loose around her shoulders. She was gorgeous, and I could only stare at her with my jaw dropped for several long moments.Her cheeks turned pink, and she gave me a s
