The Billionaire's Heir I Never Knew Was Mine novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204: It Was About Her Peace Of Mind

"There’s one more thing," Sienna added after a moment.

"I’m listening."

"I hope people remain unaware that I’m your wife... especially while the Black Scorpion case is attracting so much attention."

Zachary fell silent.

If it were entirely up to him, he would proudly tell the whole world that Sienna was his wife. He wanted everyone to know she belonged with him and that no one had the right to look down on her again.

But this wasn’t about his wishes. It was about her peace of mind.

After a thoughtful pause, he finally gave in.

"All right," he said gently. "I’ll keep that in mind."

"Thank you, Honey."

Her voice sounded much brighter than it had at the beginning of the call. The heaviness that had weighed on her heart seemed to have eased.

Then, as if wanting to change the mood completely, she asked, "So... how much longer until you get home?"

Zachary glanced through the car window before checking the time.

"Not long."

"Good."

"Why?"

"Because someone told me this morning that he’d come home early."

"I remember saying that."

"And?"

"And I fully intend to keep my promise."

She laughed softly.

"I’ll believe it when I see you walk through the front door."

"So now my wife doubts me?"

"Just a little."

"I’m hurt."

"You’ll recover once you get home."

"Not unless my wife welcomes me home properly."

Sienna laughed again.

"And what exactly does ’properly’ mean, Mr. Sterling?"

"I’ll tell you when I get there."

"You really like keeping secrets."

"Only the fun ones."

"All right. Sky and I will wait for you for dinner."

"I’ll be home soon."

"Tell Logan to drive safely."

"I will."

There was a brief pause before Zachary smiled warmly and said, "Bye, my love."

"Bye, Honey."
