Secret Triplets: The Billionaire's Second Chance
I stood at my mother's open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest's voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone-he brought Charla with him. He claimed she'd had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards."You're pregnant, ma'am. Congratulations!"
Cheryl Naylor walked out of the hospital in a stupor, but the doctor's remarks continued to play in her head.
When she glanced at the pregnancy test report in her hand once more, her face creased into a sudden smile.
It was the third year of Cheryl and Jarred Fuller's marriage.
They wed not because of love but to fulfill the last request of Jarred's grandmother.
However, Jarred was a wonderful husband once they were married, doing everything a spouse should do. He made sure Cheryl lived a good life and took good care of her. Every year on their anniversary, he would ask his assistant to send Cheryl a gift.
He treated her with the utmost respect and dignity that a wife deserved.
It seemed to everyone else that they were the sweetest and most loving couple.
However, it was a far cry from reality.
Cheryl kept to herself that Jarred did not utter a single "I love you" to her in the past three years they spent together.
Nonetheless, she fervently wanted to marry him, and she was already content with just having his company and presence in her life. She hoped their happiness would only increase now that they were expecting their firstborn.
Cheryl cautiously tucked away the pregnancy test report and eagerly dialed Jarred's number.
"Cheryl."
The man's deep and pleasant voice could be heard via the phone. It had a soothing tone to it.
Cheryl couldn't keep her enthusiasm from coming through, and her voice reflected it. "Jarred, I've got some news for you!"
"I've got something to tell you, as well. Let's talk about it later tonight."
"Okay..."
But before Cheryl could finish her sentence, the call was abruptly ended.
She didn't know what to think at first, but the pleasure of her first pregnancy soon took over.
Night came fast as the sun started to sink lower in the sky.
Bright lights illuminated the River Villa.
Cheryl prepared a feast of Jarred's favorite dishes as she waited for him to come back.
Before long, a car pulling up on the driveway could be heard outside.
As she anxiously awaited his entrance, Cheryl's pulse raced.
The urge to welcome him prompted her to get to her feet.
At that moment, the door swung open, and a tall guy strode in.
Jarred had a reputation for dressing sharply. He was dressed in a tailored grey suit, a crisp white shirt, and a fancy tie.
He had chiseled features and a prominent nose that stood out. His gold-rimmed glasses gave people the impression of being aloof and arrogant.
"You're home. Let's eat dinner first, shall we?"
