~Lora~

By the time night settled over the city, I had finally managed to leave the hospital.

As much as I needed everyone to believe I was still devastated by the miscarriage, there was only so much time I could spend lying in that hospital bed and staring at the ceiling. I had played my part well enough for one day, and I wasn't particularly interested in spending another night there pretending to be a grieving wife.

Besides, I had other things to attend to.

    ~Lora~"Well, there has to be a reason why something else is more interesting."Alex's sulking voice made me smile.He stood there with the cigar between his fingers, looking thoroughly unimpressed by my little performance. Apparently, my outfit wasn't enough to distract him from whatever had been bothering him all evening.Well, I wasn't about to give up that easily.Before he could say anything else, I rushed towards him and threw my arms around his shoulders, jumping against him with enough force to make him stagger backwards. He barely had time to react before his arms instinctively wrapped around me, catching me against his chest."Whoa..."I didn't let him finish.I pressed my lips against his, kissing him before he could come up with another excuse to push me away. He tried to steady himself, but with my legs wrapped around his waist and my arms holding him close, we lost our balance and tumbled onto the grass.The lawn mower rolled a short distance away as Alex landed on hi

    ~Lora~ By the time night settled over the city, I had finally managed to leave the hospital. As much as I needed everyone to believe I was still devastated by the miscarriage, there was only so much time I could spend lying in that hospital bed and staring at the ceiling. I had played my part well enough for one day, and I wasn't particularly interested in spending another night there pretending to be a grieving wife. Besides, I had other things to attend to. I had just finished speaking with Michelle and Christian over the phone. They were both staying at James's place for the night, which meant I didn't have to worry about them being alone or getting caught up in anything happening at home. As for me, I had a little visit to make. I stood in front of one of Alex's mansions, staring at the tall gates while adjusting the bucket hat on my head. I had gone out of my way to make myself look as unrecognisable as possible, wearing a loose brown coat that concealed most of my figur

  • Dear Husband, Let's Have An Open Marriage    Chapter 86: One Step At A Time

    ~Lora~It was nearly more than an hour after the first shenanigans and now Mother-in-law was just about to leave when Michael got up from his chair, reaching for his jacket."I should get going too. I have some work to attend to."I immediately turned towards him. "You're leaving?"He paused, looking at me. "I won't be long. I'll come back later."I stared at him for a moment before lowering my eyes to the tray of food he'd brought earlier. Then I pushed it away with a small frown. "I don't want this."He glanced at the tray. "What's wrong with it?""Nothing. I just don't want it.""Then what do you want?"I looked up at him, allowing my lower lip to tremble slightly. "I want homemade food."He blinked. "Homemade food?"I nodded. "Yes. I don't want anything from the hospital. I want something prepared at home."Michael glanced towards his mother, then back at me. "Honey, you can't be serious. You're in a hospital. What do you expect me to do?"I frowned. "Is it that difficult to get m

  • Dear Husband, Let's Have An Open Marriage    Chapter 85: Miscarriage

    ~Lora~When I opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed was the unfamiliar white ceiling above me. The second was the uncomfortable ache in my head.I blinked a few times, slowly turning my head to take in my surroundings. I was in a hospital room, lying on a bed with an IV attached to my hand. Beside me sat my mother-in-law, looking rather unsettled as she watched me regain consciousness.For a moment, I simply stared at her.Then I lifted a hand to my forehead and winced."What happened?"She immediately leaned forward. "Lora? You're awake."I closed my eyes again, pressing my fingers against my temple. "My head hurts.""Oh, dear." She reached for my hand. "Don't move too much. You've been through quite an ordeal."I swallowed, allowing my brows to draw together as though I were struggling to remember something."What happened?" I asked again. "I can't remember anything."She hesitated.I noticed it, of course. The slight pause, the way her eyes moved towards the door before returni

  • Dear Husband, Let's Have An Open Marriage    Chapter 84: The Best Performance

    ~Lora~I slowly lowered my phone, still trying to process everything we'd just witnessed.For a moment, neither Christian nor I said anything. There was too much to think about, and although I had a thousand questions running through my mind, I knew this wasn't the time to start asking them.I turned towards him, holding out my phone."Save the footage. Even though we couldn't use it today, I don't want us losing it. Make sure you keep a copy somewhere safe."Christian nodded, taking the phone from me."And collect the file from Adrian when he arrives. We won't need to use that one again for now, but I want everything preserved. We might need it later.""Alright. I'll take care of it."I watched him for a moment before glancing in James and Ellie's direction. They were still occupied with the preparations, and James seemed to be doing a particularly good job of keeping her attention away from us.Good.At least one part of the plan was still going smoothly.I slipped my hand into my p

  • Dear Husband, Let's Have An Open Marriage    Chapter 83: Deep

    ~Lora~I made my way towards James and Christian, who were still occupied with the preparations for the fashion show.James was standing beside Ellie, explaining something about one of the designs while she listened attentively. Christian, on the other hand, was looking through his phone.The moment he noticed me approaching, he slipped it into his pocket."Adrian is on his way with the evidence," he informed me quietly.I nodded."Good."That was exactly what I wanted to hear. Hopefully, Adrian had managed to find everything we needed. I was getting tired of all the guessing, and I wanted something concrete that I could put in front of everyone."Let's hope we get what we're looking for," I muttered.Christian gave a small nod before glancing towards James and Ellie."So, what happens if the first plan doesn't work?"I looked at him for a moment."Then we move to the next one."It was as simple as that. I wasn't going to let anything ruin what we'd been working towards. If our initia

    ~Lora~“Mrs. Brown, can you hear me?”A faint voice stirred me from the darkness. I blinked rapidly as everything became clear.“Thank God you're awake”, the nurse said, smiling warmly, relief washed over her.“What happened?” I asked hoarsely, my body feeling strangely light...numb.“You collapse

    ~Lora~"Why do you still have this?" I jabbed his chest with my index finger.He tensed, his jaw tightening. "Why? Does it bother you that I didn't erase it?""I told you to get rid of the tattoo, Alex. What do you want people to think when you finally meet someone?"“Sssh,” he murmured, leaning in
