All Chapters of The Billionaire’s Redemption : Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

Two years later. The Manhattan skyline glimmered against the glass windows of Adrian's luxurious office. But the natural beauty couldn't ease his exasperation. "How long will it take you before you find her?" Adrian questioned, his voice tinged with desperation. "Mr. Blackwell—" Craig, his investigator, began cautiously. "It's been two years of searching the country for Nadine, and I'm not happy about the constant disappointments," Adrian snapped, his voice rising. "There have been no trace or sign of her. It's like you aren't even looking at all." "Mr. Blackwell, that's why I came here today," Craig said, retrieving an envelope from his briefcase. "A woman was spotted in a small coastal town called Seabrook Haven. She works at a small and quiet café." He handed the envelope to Adrian, who swiftly collected it and pulled out a picture. Adrian's hands trembled as he peered down at the photograph of a woman leaving a cafe.Her face wasn't entirely clear but he was certain that

The woman Adrian beheld wasn't Nadine. It was Clara. "Liam, why did you leave my side?" Clara asked, her voice laced with worry. She rushed to Adrian and gently took Liam from him. "I saw him wandering, and wanted to help him in looking for his mother," Adrian muttered, a bit disappointed. "I'm glad you're here." "I'm not his mother," Clara replied with a weary smile. "I'm his mother's friend—Clara." "Clara," Adrian repeated, fighting the urge to ask if her friend was Nadine. "Liam, you had me worried," Clara said, turning her attention to the boy. "Where is your drawing?" Liam's face fell, realizing his drawing was lost. He glanced around, warily gripping Clara's sleeves. Adrian instinctively lowered his gaze to the floor, searching for the drawing. After a few moments of glancing around, he spotted a paper a few feet away, lying on a cobblestone. As he walked over there and grabbed the paper, his eyes fell on the drawing of a boy labeled Liam, his mother and a blurry father

Nadine's breath came in short, panicked gasps as she rushed out of the shopping mall. She held Liam tightly to her chest, his little arms wrapped around her neck. She could feel his heart beating rapidly against hers, matching her own fear.As she hurried through the crowds, people stared at her with curious expressions. But Nadine didn't notice. She was too focused on getting to the car as quickly as possible.Liam's soft voice broke through her thoughts, trembling with confusion. "Mommy, why are we running?" he asked.Nadine tried to calm down, taking a deep breath before answering. "We're just... uh... trying to beat the traffic, sweetie," she said, forcing a weak smile.But Liam's eyes looked uncertain, and he tightened his grip on her neck. "But Mommy, we're almost running," he pointed out.Nadine's heart sank. She knew she couldn't keep the truth from Liam for much longer. But for now, she just wanted to get him to safety."It's okay, baby," she whispered, trying to reassure him
