The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 53

Winona froze for a moment.

Then, warmth flooded her chest.

Her sweet little boy.

Zane understood her—he knew the ache and heartbreak she carried deep inside.

"Sweetheart…" Winona's voice broke as she called out to him, and she couldn't say another word.

Zane smiled gently. "If moms didn't go through pain, there wouldn't be any birthdays for kids. I already heard a beautiful 'Happy Birthday' song just now. Now I want to hear 'A Mother's Love.' Can we sing it together?"
