DIVORCED Back To Claim What’s Mine Chapter one-hundred-seventeen
The heavy silence that blanketed the heated terrace was suffocating. Every whisper in the restaurant had died down, and the eyes of dozens of high-society diners were glued to the dramatic stage.Charlie blinked, his mind completely numb, his face still burning with the fiery imprint of Elara’s double slap. Beside him, Lydia was afraid and confused, thinking that the whole truth was going to be exposed soon. Her heart was beating like a wild, trapped animal against her ribs. She knew that if Tyler opened his mouth further, her fake pregnancy, her fake doctor, and her stolen life would be shattered in front of the Vane matriarch. Yet, even as cold sweat beaded at her hairline, she desperately fought to keep her composure, maintaining a polite smile on her face to hide the absolute terror consuming her soul.Evelyn Vane’s brilliant, calculating mind was spinning out of control. She looked at her towering, furious nephew, then at her utterly silent son, and then back again."Tyler, what

The echoing sting of Elara’s double slap still vibrated in the quiet air of the terrace. Charlie stood paralyzed against the glass railing, his hands trembling as they clutched his burning, red cheeks. But as the initial shock of the physical blow began to dissolve, it was replaced by a wave of pure, toxic, and incredibly desperate humiliation. The neighboring diners were staring at him, whispering behind their menus, and his mother’s sharp, questioning eyes were cutting straight through his fragile ego.He couldn't let her leave like this. He couldn't let her win.As Elara turned her back, adjusting her designer bag to walk away with Leo, Charlie’s hand shot out like a striking viper. He caught her wrist once again, his fingers digging into her skin with a tight, painful grip, refusing to let go of her."You are not going anywhere!" Charlie screamed, his voice cracking with a high pitched, hysterical rage. He looked past the terrace doors, spotting the restaurant's heavy set private

"My baby! My baby! My belly hurts!" Lydia shrieked, her voice tearing through the quiet, refined ambiance of the lakeside terrace like a jagged blade. She lay sprawled on the hard, tiled floor, clutching her abdomen with dramatic, trembling hands as she writhed in mock agony. She looked up at the ceiling, tears springing to her eyes as she let out another loud, piercing sob. "She pushed me! She wants to kill my baby!"The sudden, violent outbreak of noise caused an instant, hushed ripple to pass over the entire restaurant. People were turning from their tables, their conversations abruptly halting as they craned their necks to see what was happening on the glass enclosed terrace. Whispers broke out among the high society diners, their eyes locked onto the dramatic scene.Charlie’s face twisted into a mask of pure, protective panic. He quickly rushed forward to assist Lydia up, wrapping his arms around her waist to lift her from the floor."Lydia! Lydia, look at me! Are you okay?" Char

The air on the glass enclosed terrace was thick with a suffocating, electrostatic tension. Evelyn Vane stood rigid near the empty wooden booth, her manicured fingers slowly releasing the grip she had held on the back of the child's chair. She was busy asking Charlie and Lydia who that child was, her voice dropping into a dangerous, low-pitched growl that vibrated with a rising storm of suspicion."I want answers, and I want them right now," Evelyn demanded, her icy blue eyes boring directly into her son’s panicked face. "For a child of his age to call you bad guys, that means he knows you. It means he has seen your faces before today. And more importantly, Charles... he looks exactly like you when you were a boy. The bone structure, the eyes, the forehead it is an absolute mirror image. Don't let it be what I'm thinking, Charlie."Charlie’s throat felt as dry as desert sand, his mouth opening and closing as he struggled to find a single, coherent word to pacify his mother. He was abou

Evelyn Vane squinted through the thick, condensation filmed safety glass of the heated terrace, her sharp, hawk-like eyes desperate to catch a glimpse of the woman standing out on the misty valet deck. But the evening shadows were deepening, and the bright amber floodlights from the restaurant's exterior cast a heavy, reflecting glare on the glass pane. Moreover, the woman in the elegant green silk dress and beige trench coat had her back completely turned to the dining room, her phone pressed tightly to her ear as she paced back and forth near the stone railing.Evelyn let out a soft, frustrated sigh, her fingers gently drumming against the edge of the child's wooden table."Oh, I couldn't see your mom," Evelyn spoke, her voice instantly returning to that deceptively warm, melodic purr as she looked back down at the little boy. She reached out, her fingers lightly brushing the edge of his paper menu. "How about I stay here with you while she comes back inside? A handsome little gentl

"Look... that boy looks exactly like you," Evelyn whispered, her voice carrying a low, chilling intensity that made the fine hairs on the back of Charlie’s neck stand up.Charlie blinked, his glass of red wine halting mid-air. "Mom, what are you talking about?"As Charlie turned to look in the direction his mother was pointing, he was shocked. Sitting under the warm amber patio heaters, happily licking a chocolate covered spoon, was a little boy. The moment Charlie’s eyes locked onto the child, his chest tightened. Every time he saw the little boy, his heart always skipped a beat. For what? He didn't even know. There was a strange, invisible magnetic pull in his chest, an unexplainable biological echo that made his breath hitch. The boy’s high forehead, the shape of his nose, the structure of his jaw—it was like looking at a miniature, pristine version of himself from a lifetime ago.Beside him, Lydia’s face drained of every single drop of its vibrant color. Her hand shook so violentl

The silence in the grand morning parlor was so thick it felt physical, pressing against Lydia’s chest like a lead weight. Her eyes were wide, her heart hammering a frantic, erratic tempo against her ribs as the woman in the pristine white lab coat slowly completed her turn. Lydia’s muscles were alr
