The Billionaire's Forgotten Wife

Zeke had been visiting Cassidy’s apartment almost every day. It had become a quiet routine, he’d show up after work or on weekends, play house with Claire, read her a story, help build her Lego house, or just sit on the floor while she played with her toys and talked about her day. Claire had grown used to his presence and even looked forward to it.

And on the days he couldn’t come, she always found a way to reach him, borrowing Cassidy’s phone to call or video chat, usually with a serious expression, like she had urgent news to share about her toys or snacks.

But today was different.

It was the weekend, and Claire was finally going to visit his place.

Zeke came downstairs and looked around for Mr. Nelson, the head butler. He spotted him near the bookshelf, holding a clipboard.

"Mr. Nelson, is everything ready?" Zeke asked.

"Yes, sir," Mr. Nelson replied with a nod. "The house has been cleaned, the sheets have been changed, and the toys are set up in the guest room, just as you requested."

Zeke nodded. "What about the food? Have the chefs arrived?"

"Chef Garret and her team came in this morning. They’ll start cooking about an hour before your guests arrive. We also prepared a special kid friendly menu."

Zeke added firmly, "No shrimp or carrots. Make sure the kitchen remembers."

Mr. Nelson gave a nod. "Already taken care of, sir."
