LUCAS

I had been planning it for weeks, every step calculated, every little detail covered so Clara would not even suspect it. I told her there was a major event coming up, something for one of my company’s partners, and I wanted her to handle it. She believed me immediately. I wired her money for her services, sent her the guest list that was really our closest friends and family, and arranged for new dresses to be delivered with her name written across the bags. She didn’t doubt it, not for a second. Exactly how I wanted it.

The day arrived faster than I expected. The venue was set, lights warm and soft, flowers lining the tables, music gentle in the background. Everyone had gathered already, friends… her dad, even old colleagues she had worked with back when she used to teach in Connie's school. I remembered those days, how hard she worked, how quiet she was about her struggles. I wanted her to see that I remembered, and I wanted her to see how much she meant to me now.

  • Beware Dear Ex, I’m Back For Revenge   189. FOREVER, ALWAYS.

    CLARA The test strips shook in my hand as I ran across the living room and almost tripped over the carpet. My husband, Lucas, was at his desk, looking over some files, but the moment he saw my face, he pushed everything aside and stood. “Clara, what happened?” I held up my hand with the three strips, my chest rising and falling fast. “I think… I think we are having a baby.” His eyes widened, his mouth falling open as he looked at the sticks. He came forward, grabbed them, stared down at them, then looked back at me like he couldn’t believe it. “You’re pregnant?” “I checked three times.” My voice trembled. “They all said the same thing. I even thought maybe one was wrong but they weren’t. Lucas, I’m pregnant.” For a second, he just stood there. Then he laughed, a deep sound from his chest that filled the room, and in the next second he scooped me up in his arms. I squealed and wrapped my arms around his neck as he spun me in a circle. “We’re having a baby,” he said agains

  • Beware Dear Ex, I’m Back For Revenge   188. APOLOGY OF THE DECADE

    LUCASSilence fell like a switch had been pulled. I turned, still holding Clara’s hand, and saw my mother walking in. I straightened. What was her deal now? Came to ruin this too? Then I looked closer.Her heels tapped slow against the marble, her head held high, but her eyes were wet. People shifted back, whispers rising as she moved down the center aisle. My father wasn’t with her, this was just her, walking straight to the podium with every eye in the room on her.Clara stiffened beside me. I felt her hand tighten in mine, but she didn’t pull away.When my mother reached the podium, she paused and looked around. Her voice, when it came, was low but clear.“I know I was not invited,” she said. “And I know I have no right to stand here today. But I couldn’t stay away. I need to do this.”The room stayed silent. Even the music had stopped. I watched her, my jaw tight, my hand still wrapped around Clara’s.She drew in a shaky breath. “Lucas, my son. Clara… my daughter. I owe you both a

    CLARAPanic rushed through me. The room wasn’t ready. I swallowed fast. “Yes. I need you to pick up something for me.”“Oh, what is it?” It sounded like his car had slowed now.I shut my eyes, forcing the words out. “Tampons.”The line went quiet. Then a low laugh. “Clara. You want me to buy tampons myself?”“Yes.”He exhaled hard. “I can send one of the guards. I don’t think I want to get…”I gripped the phone tighter. “No. I need you to go. Please. I trust you more than them.”He sighed again, softer this time. “Fine. If you say so. But you owe me for this, maybe that asshole since my pussy is bleeding? Wait. Thought you already saw—““You’ll get them?” I pressed quickly, avoiding his question.“Yes. I’ll go. Sorry for… grumbling.” His voice warmed. “I’ll call you when I find them.”“Thank you,” I whispered.When the call ended, I turned to Anna. She was holding back a laugh, eyes wide. “You really sent him to buy tampons?”“It was all I could think of.” I slapped a hand over my he

    CLARAThe officer led me down the long hallway again. The place smelled like shit, the same smell every time I came here. Ella was already waiting when I entered. She sat on the other side of the glass, her eyes tired, her hair falling out of place.“You came back,” she said quickly, looking hopeful. Wrong, girl.I placed my bag on the small table and took out the phone. “I came to show you something.”She leaned closer to the glass, her fingers pressed against it. “What is it?”I pressed play on the video. The camera moved across a street corner, showing her family standing outside. They looked lost, carrying bags that barely had anything in them. Her younger brother’s face was swollen, his clothes dirty, and when the camera zoomed in, his skin showed bruises that weren’t healed. He looked thin, his legs weak, and someone held him up.Ella gasped. “No.”I didn’t say anything. I just held the phone closer.The video continued. A man’s voice in the background explained what had happene

  • Beware Dear Ex, I’m Back For Revenge   184. MAKING THESE MEMORIES

    LUCASThe house was quiet when I walked in. I tossed my keys on the table and went straight to the kitchen for a glass of water. My phone kept buzzing in my pocket but I ignored it. I already knew who it was. By the time I sat down on the couch, the front door flew open. My mother didn’t even knock.“Lucas!” she shouted.I didn’t move. “Hello, mom.”She slammed the door and came rushing toward me, her face twisted with anger. “How dare you! How dare you give my grandson to that man?”I stood up slowly. “He is not your grandson. He is Daniel’s son.”“You shut your mouth,” she snapped, jabbing a finger at me. “That boy is mine. I raised him. I held him every night when he cried. I fed him when he was sick. I taught him how to talk. You think you can just hand him over to a stranger?”“He is not a stranger. He is Connie’s father.”Her voice cracked. “And so what? That man is poor. He can’t even feed himself. You want my grandson to go and suffer with him? Are you insane?”I clenched my f
