DIVORCED Back To Claim What’s Mine Chapter One-hundred & twenty-nine
Lydia stepped out of the heavy double doors of the ICU wing, her heels clicking sharply against the polished hospital floor. Her heart was still racing, but the weight of Charlie’s black titanium Centurion card resting inside her designer purse gave her an intoxicating rush of absolute power.She walked into the quiet waiting area where her parents, Silas and Beatrice, were standing near the window, speaking in hushed, frantic whispers. Evelyn Vane sat a few feet away, her posture rigid, her eyes fixed on the distant Manhattan skyline. The Vane matriarch looked entirely drained, yet her face remained an unreadable, freezing mask.Lydia walked up to her mother-in-law, putting on a weak, sorrowful expression. "Mother Vane... the nurse said Charlie needs absolute rest for his cranial scans. I’m going to head out to prepare myself and get things ready for tomorrow’s gala, just like he wanted."Evelyn didn't even look up at her. She only nodded slowly, her hand rising to rub her temples in

The steady, rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor in the ICU suite seemed to synchronize with the frantic, calculating thoughts running through Lydia’s head. She stood at the edge of the sterile room for a split second, adjusting her features, forcing her eyes to soften with a sudden, overwhelming wave of relief as she watched Charlie weakly trying to keep his eyes open under the harsh, white fluorescent lights.Without waiting another second, Lydia quickly went and hugged Charlie, her arms wrapping gently around his bandaged chest. She buried her face into his neck, letting out a soft, trembling sob that she had perfectly rehearsed in the mirror."Oh, Charlie... my love, my absolute life," Lydia cried softly, her voice thick with fake, theatrical emotion. "I missed you so fucking much. You have no idea what a nightmare last night was. The baby... the baby has missed you so much too. I have been on my knees, clutching my stomach and praying to God for your quick recovery. I thought I

Elara and Tyler povThe red light on the console flickered and went dark as Tyler tapped the screen, cutting the connection with Sarah. The silence that rushed back into the spacious living room of the Chelsea penthouse was heavy, sharp, and dripping with a sudden, freezing focus.Elara sat perfectly still on the plush velvet sofa, her fingers slowly releasing her grip on Tyler’s arm. Her green eyes, which had been warm and playful only minutes ago, had hardened into cold, emeralds. She stared at the city skyline outside the massive glass windows, her mind working at a dizzying, clinical speed.Tyler slowly stood up, pacing the floor with his hands shoved deep into his pockets. His jaw was clenched so tightly that a muscle strobed in his cheek. He let out a low, dark chuckle that carried absolutely no warmth."Fucking unbelievable," Tyler muttered, his deep voice carrying a dangerous, vibrating frequency. "The pathetic fool actually tried to ram his way through his mother’s locked gat

The rhythmic, mechanical hiss of a state of the art ventilator was the only sound breaking the dead silence of the private ICU suite. The room was bathed in a cold, sterile blue light, smelling heavily of antiseptic and ozone.Lydia walked into the quiet, sterile ICU room, her hand clutching her chest as she forced fake tears to well up in her eyes. Her shoulders shook with a calculated, theatrical grief as she spotted Evelyn sitting perfectly upright in a stiff vinyl chair by the bedside. Evelyn looked exhausted, her face pale under the harsh fluorescent lights, but her posture remained as rigid and unforgiving as marble. Beside her, Charlie’s comatose, machine dependent body lay pinned to the bed, wrapped in white bandages, with various IV tubes running directly into his bruised arms."Oh, Charlie... my love," Lydia whimpered, her voice cracking as she rushed to the side of the bed, falling to her knees and grabbing his limp, cold hand. She buried her face in the white sheets, letti

Lydia walked back to her master bedroom, her heels clicking softly against the hardwood floors of the quiet mansion. Her heart was beating at a frantic, irregular rhythm. She locked the double doors behind her and stood in the center of the dark room, breathing heavily. Her parents' promises had given her a temporary wave of relief, but she knew she couldn't rely solely on Silas and Beatrice. If she wanted to survive the f**king onslaught waiting for her at Saturday's gala, she had to lock down every single loose end.She pulled out her secondary, encrypted burner phone and dialed a private number."Elena," Lydia whispered fiercely into the receiver the moment the call connected. "We need to meet. Right now. Some shit has gone down, and we need to perfect our roles before the gala tomorrow. Meet me at our usual secret spot in fifteen minutes. Don't be fucking late."Without waiting for Elena’s response, Lydia ended the call and slipped the phone back into her purse. She quickly change

"What the fuck do you mean she slapped him?!" Beatrice asked, her voice cracking as her jaw dropped in absolute, unadulterated shock. She gripped Lydia’s hands so tightly her manicured nails dug into her daughter's skin. "Elara? The same quiet, pathetic girl we kicked out of the family years ago? She put her hands on Charlie Vane? In public?!""Yes, she fucking did, Mom!" Lydia cried, her voice rising into a sharp, hysterical shriek as she shook her head, tears of pure, impotent rage spilling over her cheeks. "Mom, you need to see Elara now. She has changed. She has become completely fearless, and she’s out for our fucking blood! I don’t even know why the hell she came back to this town! She’s ruining everything! She’s making things so damn difficult for us, and if she exposes the fake pregnancy to Evelyn before Saturday night, we are all going to end up in a federal penitentiary!"Silas stood by the window, his face turning a dark, dangerous shade of purple as his hands clenched into

The cold, unforgiving reality of her situation hit Lydia the exact moment the chemical warmth of the sedatives finally drained from her bloodstream. She woke up shivering in the center of her massive bed, her skin clammy and her mouth tasting like copper and ash. The beautiful, invincible fo

The morning sun had barely pierced the heavy fog rolling off the Hudson when the quiet of Charlie Vane’s study was shattered by the sharp, metallic ping of a high-priority financial alert. Charlie, who had spent the last several hours staring blankly at fluctuating market tickers, grabbed his phone

The dynamic in the east wing had shifted from a funeral to a desperate, twisted farce. Lydia didn't bother with the formalities of her previous life; she didn't wait for a maid to announce her or for a polite invitation to enter. She threw the heavy oak door open with a violence that echoed against
DIVORCED Back To Claim What’s Mine Chapter fifty six
The air inside Charlie Vane’s private study was thick enough to choke on, heavy with the scent of expensive bourbon and the frantic heat of a man who knew the floor was about to give way. Charlie sat slumped behind his desk, his fingers digging into his scalp, when his personal cell phone began to
