Dr. Ivy Smythe left Heath Allan the day before they graduated from university after they'd fought long and hard about her having an affair. He wouldn't accept her word over the stories he'd been told and the photographic evidence. Heath didn't believe she would leave and was stunned when she disappeared. Now, eight years later, he finds her working in the museum, where he's the new CFO, and she's got a little boy who looks like him. She's also walking with a cane and giving him the cold shoulder. His family's money and influence originally created this mess when his mother set her sights on him marrying another woman. Back then, he did what his parents wanted and married Monica. After the wedding, he discovered Ivy wasn't the gold digger, as his mother and Monica portrayed her. Monica was. Now Monica is fighting the divorce, and Ivy won't admit Geoffrey is his son. Does he have any hope of fixing this? He wants to be his son's father and make things right with Ivy. Will she take him back? He knows Monica won't slip away into the shadows peacefully. He's sure Monica will attempt to manipulate things again to push Ivy out of Heath's life. Read on to find out what Ivy will do when the Cat Fight for the Billionaire Daddy goes for a second round. Will she forgive him for the sake of their son? Does she still love him? What would she do with Monica if she could have her revenge on her?

CHAPTER 1–IVY
Ivy Smythe grabbed her coat. “Geoff, hop to it. Kathy will be here any minute to take you to school.” She knew today would be one of those days. Last night’s rain hadn’t helped her sleep, or her old injury. Years ago, she broke her leg, and during her treatment, she learned about Geoff’s pending arrival. The break was bad, the doctors wanted to operate, and it is standard practice to test a woman for pregnancy before any procedure. Ivy’s test, of course, returned positively. They forced her to choose, lose her baby, or walk with a limp. The doctor failed to tell her there’d be pain for years, but she wouldn’t change her decision if she’d known. She’d still choose Geoff.“Yeah, Mom.” Her son’s voice echoed through the hallway. The apartment was in the artisan section of the city. Nowhere near the museum she worked for. What it was close to her best friend and artist, Kathy Mills. It allowed Kathy to mind Geoff.Ivy looked in the mirror by the front door and adjusted her blonde bun. She

CHAPTER 2 - IVY
“Okay, whatever you tell me won’t go past these four walls. Now, what’s this big secret? As Alice spoke, Ivy handed her the framed picture of Geoffrey from her desk.“Oh, he’s…” Ivy, plucked the framed portrait and sadly hid it in the bottom drawer of a filing cabinet. “You got it. I’m screwed and don’t know what to do.”“He’s Geoff’s father, and I guess since you’re hiding the photo. Mr. Allan doesn’t know Geoff exists.” “It’s a long story, and I won’t bore you with the details. Just don’t say anything until I work out what I’m doing.” Ivy couldn’t believe how calm and mature she appeared. She wasn’t calm or mature inside. Her mind hadn’t caught up, and when it hit, she was sure it’d be at the worst moment. Hopefully, she’d be alone and not embarrass herself.“Of course, I have your back. But doesn’t he deserve to know?”“He married the perfect woman a few months after graduation. As far as I know, it’s a perfect marriage and I’m not about to interrupt it with this. It’s actually mo

CHAPTER 3 – HEATH
“What do you want now, Monica?” Heath Allan closed the storage closet door as he asked this. Only for the door to open immediately to admit Parker Stephens right behind him, and Parker had the good sense to close the door promptly. Parker whispered to Heath. ‘Monica again?’ Heath nodded with the phone still to his ear.Of all the worst timing, his soon-to-be ex-wife called him to complain about something not being to her liking. “They declined my credit card, again. Why is my credit card no good, Heath?” Monica’s voice held a hint of a whiny tone as she tried to guilt him into giving her more money by pretending to be helpless and clueless. “Have you paid the bill for it lately?” Heath didn’t want to have this conversation with her again. It was the same conversation they had every time she called. “No, don’t bother answering that question. Of course, you didn’t pay the bill. Listen well, because I’m not repeating myself again, Monic

CHAPTER 4 – HEATH
Heath couldn’t get Ivy out of his mind after he saw her. He’d searched for her but didn’t find her. She must have left the building immediately. Clearly, something had happened since she now walked with a cane. It’d been about seven years since he’d last heard anything or tried searching for her. He’d found nothing and believed she must have left the city. Heath remembered the last time he saw her. They’d fought about an affair she had with some unknown idiot. Even when he showed her the photographs he had, she denied knowing who it was or even knowing where those photos were taken. This was the affair he’d come to suspect was a setup to drive Ivy away from him. He hated the thought that Monica and his mother may have conned him. Heath had to admit she stuck to her story well and wondered if she could continue with it after all this time. When he got into work the next morning, Parker was there waiting with a file.“It appears the pe

CHAPTER 5 - HEATH
Heath entered the museum early. He needed to speak with Ivy. What he’d read and saw in about her life after she’d disappeared from his life kept him awake most of the night. He still debated if he should call her into his office or storm into hers. Finally, he decided they would need a neutral ground. Because he feared this would end up badly if one of them lost their temper. With a better grasp of the way things worked in the museum, he stopped in the cafeteria at the front of the museum before he went to his office. While his fate brought Ivy into the cafeteria, and she sat there drinking a coffee with her phone in her hand. Coffee in hand, Heath strolled over and sat down. “We need to talk Ivy.” “I’ll have my department’s budget for next year to you by the end of the week. There won’t be anything outrageous in it.” She didn’t look up from her phone and he finally put his hand over the screen, so it forced her to look

CHAPTER 6 - IVY
By the time Ivy arrived home and settled tiredly in her chair at the dinner table. Geoff and Kathy were eating their dinner of chicken nuggets, coleslaw, and macaroni and cheese.Geoff was halfway through dinner and much of the food was gone. “We saved you some, mom,” Geoff proudly stated. “It’s really good.” Ivy only now relaxed, safe at home with Geoff and Kathy. For once, she was home in time to sit down with them and eat her meal.“So, how was your day?” Kathy asked with a careful tone in her voice. “How was you know who to you today?”“Let’s put a pin in that and come back when we don’t have an audience?”“Oh, right? You still have a job, right?”“I will say yes for now, but I think this weekend I’ll be brushing up my resume and portfolio. Then I’ll quietly put some feelers out for something else. Even though I like it there.”“But that means you’d have to move.” Kathy’s surprise was something Ivy expected.“Let’s talk about it later when someone else is asleep?”“Does that mean

CHAPTER 7 - IVY
Thankfully, Ivy didn’t have any surprise visits from Heath in her department, and Alice took pity on her by doing the coffee runs. It wasn’t until lunch approached that something tore Ivy’s attention from her struggles to work out the budget perfectly and find a way to present it reasonably.Her phone rang, which happened rarely, so the sound made her pause and wait to ensure she’d not imagined it. When it rang a second time, Ivy picked it up and looked at the screen. Kathy’s number appeared on the screen, and Ivy’s heart sank. She never called during work hours unless something very wrong happened that would directly affect Geoff.“Hello, Kathy, what’s up hon? What’s wrong?” Ivy hated phone calls like this. They always meant inconvenience and plans changing at the last minute. Which was something that was bad as a mother with a picky child. Predictability was something Geoff needed in his life to thrive.“I’m having one of those days, Ivy. I went to do a postal run to ship this week’

CHAPTER 8 - IVY
Ivy jumped out of her skin and dropped everything in her hands. She couldn’t help it but and cried out in dismay. “Mr. Allan.” It took her a moment to register what he’d said. Of course, he’d appear like this while she was in a hurry to deal with something she didn’t want to speak to him about. “I have a rather sudden personal matter I must deal with, and time is of the essence. So, I must leave early. I’m taking work with me, so you don’t need to worry about my department budget being late.” She silently cursed as her phone landed in one place and her mug skittered off a few feet away in another direction.Before she could bend to pick anything up, Heath was there picking up her phone along with everything else. “I didn’t ask about the budget. I asked where you’re going.”Heath, of course, looked at her phone screen as he straightened. “A cab to Mercy General? Ivy, why are you going to the hospital? Who’s there that needs you now?”Ivy must have looked guilty or something because whe

CHAPTER 9 - PARKER
Heath entered the executive office floor where his new office was and met with Parker in the outer office.“What’s up? You just went for food and a break not even ten minutes ago. Now you’re back without food and you look upset.” Parker did like the look on Heath’s face. He couldn’t decide if Heath was furious or worried. Parker wasn’t sure why either, unless Heath encountered Dr. Smythe and spoke to her. If that happened, it hadn’t gone well.“I need you to cancel my meetings for the rest of today. I have a family emergency and need to leave now.” Parker perked up at the words ‘family emergency’. Heath never had issues with those. When his father had his latest heart attack, Heath hadn’t stopped working, but waited to go to the hospital after his workday was over. Parker knew about Heath’s son Geoffrey before Heath and his mind went instantly to something being wrong with him.“Okay, but I just received a response on that photo analysis you requested, and I sent the report to you. Yo

CHAPTER 10 - IVY
“When will we know the results of the x-rays?” Ivy asked the nurse, who checked in on them and delivered pain medication for Geoff.“The x-ray technician will read your son’s x-rays and send a report to the doctor. Once the doctor receives the report, he’ll return with a plan on what will happen next. Now if you follow me, I’m afraid there are some documents that must be completed. It’ll help speed things up to get you out of here more quickly once we know how to proceed.” The grey-haired paediatric nurse said with that all-knowing grandmotherly tone that many senior nurses seemed to cultivate when they liked a patient.“Do you think I’ll walk like my mom after this?” Ivy hadn’t expected Geoff to make the connection between her limp and his injury. He sounded like he was eager to limp around like her, and she realized he’d not only made the connection, but he was using it to relate to her.Ivy’s heart broke because of this. The bond he desperately tried to have with her made her heart
