The Daring Billionaire’s Wife

After a long day with Frank, I visit my father-in-law, who wanted to speak to me from his resting bed.

"My son," he says, running his hand through his now bald head.

"There was a time I was ready to give up, but thanks to you, look how everything turned out and I've come to the end of my treatment." Despite how thin he's become, seeing him smile warms my heart and I say, "I know how much my wife loves you and treasures you in her life.

I didn't want her to go through what happened with her mother." I pause for a moment, thinking about how that's one of the earliest memories I have of genuinely embracing Vanessa while she burst into tears because of her mother.

"How's it coming along with your father?" he asks.

"Everything's great." I force a smile.

"That's not true." He firmly shakes his head.

I sigh in defeat.

"I'm used to it." "He'll warm up to you soon." "I don't think so.

How many months has it been since he found out the truth about Carmella and I?" I instantly clench my fist at the thought of her.

She rarely crosses my mind for anything positive since all I can think about is her lack of remorse.

That's why ever since she was sent to prison, I haven't gone to see her.

"You know what?" I say to him, trying to stop thinking about her so it doesn't ruin my mood.

"I'm at least glad that my relationship with my mother and siblings is back to normal.

As for my dad, it doesn't matter how hard I work.

He just doesn't see me the same anymore.

Vanessa's delivery is in a few days and he's so sweet to her but when it comes to me, it's all about business.

I-" The sudden ringing of my phone cuts me off and the caller ID makes me smile since it's my mother, who's been staying with us for a while.

"Mom," I say to her with enthusiasm.

"Where are you?" Her voice is urgent and in the background, Vanessa grunts in extreme discomfort.

"What's wrong?" "The baby's coming!" "What?" I jump out of my seat, my heart beginning to race.

"I thought it was in-" "I know!" She cuts me off.

"Take it easy my dear.
