Nathaniel.

Amelia had just finished sending the message when my phone started vibrating. I glanced at Amelia before answering.

"What is it?"

"Boss, we have got him."

I straightened instinctively.

"The staff?"

"Yes. He is with our men now. We are waiting on your instructions."

I looked toward the window for a moment, thinking about my next move.

"Do not touch him yet."

There was a brief silence on the other end.

"We are just holding him?"

"For now. I will be there soon."

"Understood."

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   Choosing me again

    BlakeThe next morning, I woke before the alarm. For a few seconds, I lay still, staring at the hotel ceiling. Then I smiled.Nathaniel had been affected.I had seen it in his eyes the night before. He had tried to hide it, but Nathaniel had never been particularly good at hiding things from me.Not when he was in love with me.And he had been very much in love with me.I reached for my phone.No new messages from him, only one from the company confirming my employment.I smiled and dropped the phone back, not bothering to read the employment letter. Though I hadn't expected any message from him, I couldn't help but wonder if he had thought about me all through the night. Of course I didn't expect him to jump right into my arms just because I suddenly showed up. Nathaniel would need time. He had always needed time whenever a situation involved hurting someone. He could face problems, family crises, and difficult decisions without flinching. But when he believed someone had suffer

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   I need my wife

    Amelia.I was drifting, the edges of the room softening, the weight of the day finally loosening its grip on my mind, when Nathaniel’s voice came quietly through the dark.“Amelia? Are you sleeping?”For a moment I considered saying yes. It would have been easy. A soft murmur, a shift of my body, and the conversation could wait until morning. But the lie felt wrong after everything he had already told me. I opened my eyes and stared at the faint outline of the ceiling.“I was about to,” I answered.He was quiet for a few seconds. His hand rested against my stomach, fingers spread lightly over the place where our children grew. I could feel the warmth of his palm through the thin fabric of my nightgown.“Have you been thinking about what I told you?” he asked.“Yes.”The word left me without hesitation. There was no point pretending otherwise. The thoughts had been circling for hours, soft and persistent, refusing to settle even as his breathing had deepened beside me.Nathaniel exhal

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   Don't make me regret

    Amelia.I waited until Nathaniel’s breathing settled into the deep, even rhythm of sleep before opening my eyes. I had been pretending for almost an hour.He lay beside me with one arm wrapped around my waist, his body warm against mine. He had not fallen asleep immediately either. I had felt him shift several times, sensed the tension still lingering in him even when neither of us spoke. But now he was asleep, and I remained awake.For a long time I stared into the darkness. Those three words kept returning to me.*I don’t know.*I don’t know if I still have feelings for her.I had told him the answer sounded honest, and it had. That was the problem. I had asked Nathaniel a question, and he had given me the truth. It was not the answer I wanted, but after everything we had been through, after all the secrets and the things we had both been forced to confront, I knew better than anyone that hiding something never made it disappear. So I had listened. I had let him tell me about Blake

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   Opening up

    Nathaniel.By the time I returned to the hotel, I had convinced myself that I was fine.It was a lie, but one I had become very good at telling myself.Blake’s words had followed me out of the restaurant and into the car. They stayed with me throughout the entire drive back, repeating no matter how many times I tried to push them away.I still love you.I still want you.I am not going to let you make me lose you again.I had told her the truth. I had told her I was married. I had told her that I loved my wife and that Amelia was carrying our twins. I had made my position clear.So why did it still feel as though something had been left unresolved?When I entered the suite, I found Amelia curled up on the sofa, one hand resting protectively over her stomach as she watched television. The moment the door opened, she looked up.“There you are,” she said.I forced a smile. “Hey.”Her gaze moved over me, and I knew she had already noticed something was wrong.Amelia had always been able t

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   I still love you

    Nathaniel.The door closed behind Blake, and I remained seated behind my desk, staring at the space she had just occupied.For eight years I had imagined this moment—what it would feel like to see her again. I had pictured anger, tears, accusations. I had rehearsed the explanation I would finally give her. But I had never imagined her walking out of my office still wearing the promise ring I had given her.My eyes dropped to the file on my desk.*Blake Morgan.*I had spent years trying not to think about her. Now she was back, and she had questions I owed her answers to.I glanced at the time. Amelia would be expecting me home. She had watched me leave that morning with a smile and told me to go to work, completely unaware that I would spend part of the day sitting across from the woman I had once loved before her.Guilt settled heavily in my chest. I knew I had to deal with this before it became something I could no longer control.Blake deserved an explanation. I had promised her

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   The interview

    Nathaniel.I stared at the file on my desk for another few seconds before reaching for the phone and pressing the intercom. “Send in the third candidate.”There was a brief pause before the HR manager replied. “Blake Morgan?”My fingers tightened around the edge of the desk. “Yes.”“Alright, sir.”The line went dead. I placed the receiver back and leaned into my chair. The room suddenly felt smaller, the air heavier. This was ridiculous. I had faced down boardrooms full of people who wanted to see me fail, investors who had threatened to pull millions from my company, scandals, lawsuits, hostile takeovers, and family disasters that would have broken stronger men.Yet the thought of Blake walking through that door had every muscle in my body pulled tight.I looked down at the file.Blake Morgan.The knock came less than a minute later. My entire body went still.“Come in.”The door opened, and Blake stepped inside.For a moment, neither of us spoke. She wore a simple, professional outf

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   He lied.

    Rain continued pouring from the sky while Amelia sat collapsed on the pavement outside the house she used to call home.Her hair clung to her face.Her clothes were soaked through completely.But she barely felt the cold anymore.The older woman standing beneath the umbrella looked deeply uncomfort

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   Divorced.

    Amelia stared at the divorce papers like they were written in another language.The words blurred through her tears until she could barely make them out anymore.DIVORCE AGREEMENT.Her hands started shaking instantly.“No…”Daniel leaned back in his chair with terrifying calm.“It’s over, Amelia.”

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   He doesnt care

    By the time Amelia stumbled out of Carter Enterprises, she could barely see through her tears.Rain poured heavily from the sky, cold droplets soaking through her clothes within seconds, but she barely noticed. Her entire body felt numb, hollowed out from the inside.Daniel’s words kept echoing in

  • The Chubby Wife's Revenge.   Her Fault

    The house still smelled like Noah.Amelia noticed it the moment she stepped out of her bedroom, and the realization hit her so hard she had to steady herself against the wall.Strawberry shampoo.Chocolate cereal.The sweet powdery scent of the baby soap Noah still insisted on using even though he
