MARRYING A RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE

Kiara Reynolds' life was shattered at sixteen when her mother tragically passed away, leaving her looking for answers from her father's cold silence. As she blossomed into a young woman, her father's new wife, Lucy, turned her world upside down. In her hour of need, Enzo emerged as Kiara’s knight in shining armor, freeing her from the shackles of a forced marriage. She saw him as her savior, and in the heat of passion, she decided to marry him in secret. It was a decision made with the best of intentions, but one that would soon leave her heart shattered in ways she couldn’t have foreseen. For Enzo had a hidden agenda, cloaked in a vendetta as dark and twisted as the web of secrets surrounding her mother. What heinous crime had her mother committed to warrant such retribution? Enduring Enzo's torment alone, Kiara accidentally gets pregnant, but Enzo demands she abort the child. She fled away, but Enzo tracked her down, and their child's arrival softened his heart shortly. Yet, their happiness was short-lived as Enzo's past entanglements, including an obsessive childhood friend and a scheming stepmother, threatened their weak peace. Betrayed once again, Kiara found herself unceremoniously cast out of Enzo’s life, her heart a shattered shell of its former self. And in the darkness, something new took root, a twisted seed of vengeance that grew to consume her. Years passed, and Kiara returned, not as the broken, trembling woman Enzo had known, but a formidable force to be reckoned with.

THE FACADE

Chapter 67: The Facade

The baby's voice, small but filled with joy, rang out again, a joyful refrain of "Mama." Mrs. Morgan, watching the scene unfold before her, was incredulous. "He called you Mama?" she said, her voice dripping with shock and amusement.

"He's never called me that," she continued, "and he's been with me for months. Yet he calls this woman Mama, after just one meeting? It's… it's unbelievable."

Kiara's emotions, always so close to the surface, now threatened to spill over like a torrential rain. "Mama," the baby repeated, his tiny voice an arrow straight to Kiara's heart.

Her mind raced, searching for a way to hold back the tears, to maintain her composure in the face of such raw emotion. But the tears came, silent and shimmering, gathering in the corners of her eyes like dew on a rose petal.

She bit her lip, her gaze flicking to Enzo, who watched her with growing concern.
