Chapter 10 - Eden

last update Huling Na-update: 2025-07-13 23:56:07

Michael Mycroft hadn't changed at all. I still hadn't gotten used to Connor's hatred because, for most of my life, he'd been the man I loved. And who, as far as I could tell, loved me back. My ex-husband had been cruel enough to create many fond memories in my mind, which made it all the more painful to know he was my enemy now.

But, Michael? My only surprise would be if he'd stopped hating me after all these years.

“So it’s true,” he growled, taking a step into the playroom, his eyes fixed on me as if I were a ticking time bomb, about to destroy everything around me. “She’s here.”

“What are you doing here?” Connor grumbled, his expression turning frustrated, almost as if Theodore had been stubborn and turned back to the room “I thought I was clear when I said I was going to take responsibility for everything regarding Theo’s treatment…” he said that as he looked at Jane, a clear accusation in his tone.

“I can’t believe that, after everything, you’re still subjecting yourself to being

  • Dear Ex-Husband, I'm Only Here to Save Your Son   Chapter 91 - Eden

    My heart was racing like I'd run from a pride of lions, but at least I was able to close my bedroom door behind me and Theo before any of them could reach us. I still felt like I was in a dream, my body heavy and my mind incredibly confused. I didn't even know if the confusion inside me could be called thoughts.But there was one thing I had no doubt about: the only thing that mattered was that little boy curled up in my arms, clinging to me as if he, too, was afraid that we would be separated at any moment.Theo was still crying, but the moment I looked down, I caught him looking at me too, his expression a mix of fear, hesitation, and wonder. Yes, I wasn't the only one there who was still in disbelief at what had just happened. In fact, a part of me was still on edge, waiting for Connor to appear at any moment and tell me it was all a lie, but…The more I thought about it, the more it made sense. The Mycrofts' unjustified rush to bury my daughter, their refusal to let me see their b

  • Dear Ex-Husband, I'm Only Here to Save Your Son   Chapter 90 - Eden

    The only thing I achieved by slapping Connor was to make my hand hurt, but that was the only reaction I could muster at that moment.How could he be acting as if what Jane had just said was true? It was complete nonsense to even think that… It was impossible that… I knew very well what had happened to my baby! I might never have seen her, but that didn't mean that… There was no possibility that…“Don’t you understand me?!” I half-snarled and half-whined, grabbing Connor’s shirt with both hands and struggling to shake him until he stopped avoiding my gaze “Tell me that’s a lie! Tell me right now!”“It shouldn’t have happened this way…” he growled through gritted teeth, seeming to be talking more to himself than to me “I was going to tell you the truth myself, and those bastards were supposed to be here just to confess… I should have known they’d find a way to fuck it up again…”“Stop talking like that!” I begged, the tightness of despair in my chest growing more and more suffocating “St

  • Dear Ex-Husband, I'm Only Here to Save Your Son   Chapter 89 - Eden

    I don't know how long I remained in that position, with Theo in my arms while Connor hugged us both, both clinging to me as if they never planned to let me go. We certainly stayed like that longer than we should have, since I should have had the strength to simply walk away and make them understand that this was inevitable.But I had no strength. I just stood there, my heart aching and my eyes brimming with tears. When was the last time I'd felt that feeling? The feeling of being truly wanted, of having a family who wanted me around? That's why I should have protected myself more before letting the Mycrofts into my life again. Nothing, not even Michael's worst scheme, could hurt me as much as that: knowing that, in the end, I meant something to Theodore and Connor, too. That my departure wouldn't be painful just for me.If I really wanted to, I could stay there. I could try to pretend the past never happened and that nothing was stopping me from building my little family alongside the

  • Dear Ex-Husband, I'm Only Here to Save Your Son   Chapter 88 - Eden

    “I wish you would come with me today…” Theo whimpered, one hand on his lunchbox and the other on my face, as I held him in my arms “There’s a new seesaw on the playground. We could play together before school starts…”“That sounds amazing, honey, but I’m really not feeling well,” I lied, needing all my strength not to cry as I stared at his sweet little face “I need to stay home and get some rest to feel better.”“Do you want me to stay home and take care of you?” He leaned closer, concerned “Everyone is learning the alphabet, but I already know it. I can skip school today…”“No, sweetheart. Your friends will be sad if you don’t go. I… I’ll be fine on my own…” I hugged him, p

  • Dear Ex-Husband, I'm Only Here to Save Your Son   Chapter 87 - Eden

    I had made a big, big mistake.And I wasn't talking about my pounding head or my dry mouth, with all the alcohol from the night before taking its toll. Instead, I had that sweet, exhausted feeling all over my body that I hadn't felt in a long time. Damn, I hadn't even realized how much I'd missed it until last night. Everywhere Connor had placed his hands… My hips, my back, my breasts… It was like he'd left a mark there that I'd feel forever.I think that was what was making my chest hurt so much.It was painful to know that something so wrong could feel so good. So right.Look what you did, Eden. You just created a new memory to fill you with pain in the future. Congratulations.That thought almost made me whim

  • Dear Ex-Husband, I'm Only Here to Save Your Son   Chapter 86 - Connor

    The moment she gave me permission, whatever little control I had left vanished, and I leaned over her completely. Hell, we were so close there was probably barely enough room for air, but I couldn't care less. I ran one of my hands around the back of her neck, tilting her face up so she could receive my kiss. Well, maybe it would be more accurate to say I was devouring her, my lips pressing fervently against hers and my tongue deep in her throat, as she released those soft sounds I'd missed so much.Tasting her mouth again made my blood boil and filled me with a mad need. I ran my hands wildly over her body, just as I'd wanted to do all night. Her curves seemed softer, even more succulent. Her smooth thighs and that perfect ass were begging for a good squeeze. She whimpered with desire as I did so, but I didn't gi
