Billionaire's December Despair Chapter 34
The sky was a canvas of muted gray, a reflection of the somber atmosphere that enveloped the cemetery. Friends and family gathered under the protective shelter of umbrellas, their expressions a mixture of sorrow and quiet contemplation. The rain that fell from the heavens seemed to echo the collective tears that flowed, a poignant reminder of the emotions that the day held.As the mourners stood in hushed silence, their eyes fixed on the casket adorned with flowers, memories of Martha filled the air like whispered secrets. She had been a woman of strength and resilience, a presence that had left an indelible mark on those who had known her. The eulogies spoken were a heartfelt tribute to her life, a mosaic of anecdotes that painted a vivid picture of a woman who had lived passionately and loved fiercely.Osiris stood near the gravesite, his face etched with a profound sadness. The weight of Martha's absence bore down on him, a heavy burden that threatened to engulf his very being. Her

Osiris turned, his eyes lighting up as he saw Summer standing there, a knowing smile curving her lips. His own lips curled into a grin as he retorted, "Oh, yeah? And it seems my chef master didn't change either. She's still here, watching the way I cook and probably doubting my culinary skills in her mind."Summer chuckled, her laughter carrying a warmth that filled the room. "Some habits die hard, I guess."Their banter flowed seamlessly, an easy closeness that belied the complexities of their shared history. As Osiris plated the dish he had prepared, he glanced over at Summer, a question lacing his words. "Baby Luca? How's he?""Don't worry, he's sleeping safe and sound," Summer reassured, her voice holding a sense of assurance that Osiris found comforting.With a nod of gratitude, Osiris set the plate on the table, the colors and textures of the dish a testament to his dedication to both the process and the person he was cooking for. Summer settled into a chair, her gaze unwavering

One evening, as Osiris and Summer sat on the couch, watching Luca sleep peacefully in his crib, a sense of gratitude washed over them. "You know, I never thought I'd be a single parent," Osiris admitted, his voice tinged with vulnerability.Summer placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Life has a way of throwing us curveballs. But you're stepping up, Osiris. You're showing Luca what it means to be strong and resilient."Osiris smiled, his gaze fixed on his sleeping son. "I'll do whatever it takes to give him a good life, to honor Martha's memory."As the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, Osiris began to find his footing as a single father. He sought advice from books, online forums, and even reached out to fellow parents for guidance. With each passing day, he grew more confident in his ability to care for Luca, to provide him with love, guidance, and a sense of belonging.The journey was not without its challenges, but Osiris embraced them with a newfound sense of

THE NIGHT HAD been long and restless for Osiris, his fatigue palpable as the dim glow of his phone's screen illuminated the room. Baby Luca's cries had pierced through the stillness of the night once again, leaving Osiris to stumble through the delicate dance of parenthood in the wee hours.Almost half past 3 in the morning, and Luca's cries showed no signs of subsiding. Osiris's bleary eyes met the clock, and he sighed in exasperation. It seemed like his efforts to soothe his son were in vain tonight, each attempt met with only momentary relief before the cries resumed with renewed fervor."Come on, little man," Osiris murmured, his voice a mixture of weariness and determination. He cradled Luca in his arms, pacing the room in a gentle sway. "Let's try the magic touch again, shall we?"But Luca's cries persisted, a symphony of infant distress that seemed to fill the room with a chorus of frustration. Osiris glanced at his phone, a part of him tempted to reach out to Summer but he was

Osiris observed Summer's distant gaze, curiosity getting the better of him. "Hey, you seem lost in thought. Everything alright?"Summer blinked, momentarily taken aback before offering a faint smile. "Yeah, sorry. Just got lost in my own head for a moment there."He leaned back, his demeanor casual. "Well, if you're willing to share, I'm all ears."She hesitated, as if weighing whether to open up or not. Then, with a sigh, she met his gaze and spoke candidly. "I need the money. My savings took a hit. You see, Legacy and I had a joint account, and he used it all up for gambling."Osiris' eyebrows shot up in surprise. He hadn't expected that revelation. A mixture of understanding and concern washed over his face. "Seriously? That's... I'm sorry to hear that."Summer shrugged nonchalantly, though her eyes held a hint of frustration. "Well, it's a lesson learned the hard way. But hey, that's why I'm back on the job hunt."The silence that followed carried the weight of unspoken thoughts.

As the phone call continued, Luca's enthusiasm grew. His baby laughter filled the air, and at one point, he even managed to grab onto a stack of papers and send them fluttering to the ground like confetti.Osiris shot Summer an amused glance, a mixture of exasperation and fondness in his eyes. "Looks like he's giving his stamp of approval to the office ambiance."Summer grinned, shaking her head. "I must say, I've never seen a more enthusiastic participant in a conference call."Eventually, the phone call wrapped up, and Osiris let out a breath of relief. He glanced down at Luca, who was giggling and waving his tiny arms in the air. "Well, I think he's convinced that my office is a fun place to be."Summer chuckled. "It's safe to say that Luca's review of your office is a glowing one."As the day continued, the office transformed into a playful blend of business and baby laughter. Osiris managed to strike a balance between his work responsibilities and Luca's curious explorations. And

As they continued to float in the pool, their eyes locked in a silent exchange, they both realized that rules could be bent and boundaries could blur in the pursuit of genuine connection. In that moment, they were more than just Osiris and Summer—they were two souls navigating the waters of life, unafraid to embrace the unexpected currents that brought them closer together.With that, they shared a quiet smile, their eyes locked in a moment of shared understanding. In the midst of their playful exchange, they had stumbled upon a truth that felt both simple and profound—a reminder that amidst the plans and rules, the most cherished memories were often the ones that caught them off guard, leaving them laughing, splashing, and fully immersed in the joy of the present moment.As they stood there together, under the watchful gaze of the stars, Osiris and Summer found themselves embracing the spontaneity of life and the boundless possibilities that lay ahead.As the night stretched on, they

“Jesus Christ! You gotta be kidding me, Sum– wait, really? Are you… are you… fucking pregnant!?” The room fell into a stunned silence, the weight of Summer's confession hanging heavy in the air. Osiris's gaze remained fixed on her, a mix of disbelief and a hint of realization crossing his features. "Pregnant?" he repeated softly, as if trying to process the enormity of the news.Summer nodded, her eyes filled with a blend of emotions. "Yes, and it's not yours." She could feel the tension in the room rise as Osiris's expression shifted from disbelief to curiosity.His eyes narrowed as he asked, "Then who...?"Summer took a deep breath, her voice steady but tinged with sadness. "Legacy. Though you and I had a one night stand before, you know, when we were both drunk."The room seemed to tilt as Osiris's mind raced to piece together the puzzle. "How are you fucking sure, Summer? How can you be sure that he's the father?"A somber smile touched her lips as she replied, "I've already done
