  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Patriarchal Advise

    Our relationship had always been thin, stretched to its absolute breaking point by years of silent battles, control games, and his relentless, suffocating desire to mold me into a carbon copy of himself. To Byron Rider, business wasn't just a career, and he had always viewed my collaborative, trusting nature as a fundamental flaw in the family bloodline.Yet, as I stood by the towering bookshelves, my fingers tightly tracing the edge of the manila envelope Sam had compiled, I knew there was only one man in the entire tri-state area who truly understood how to handle a betrayal of this magnitude. Irrespective of the decades of resentment between us, irrespective of his controlling nature, my father had spent his entire life swimming in a dark ocean filled with corporate sharks. If I wanted to survive this structural collapse, I needed the perspective of the apex predator who had taught me how to walk.My father sat behind his massive, carved oak desk, his silver hair immaculate, his ta

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   A Snitch in His Circle

    "There is absolutely no way you are being serious right now, Sarah," I said, my voice coming out rough. I dropped the photograph onto the center table, shaking my head not wanting to believe everything she had just laid at my feet.I took a heavy step toward the center of the room, my hands coming up to rub against my temples as a sharp, pulsing ache began to bloom behind my eyes. I looked back at her, desperation bleeding into my tone. "Sarah, listen to what you are actually saying. I know you and Miller have never exactly seen eye-to-eye. But coming up with a story about him working against me behind closed doors? This is extreme, even for you."Sarah stayed perfectly still on the leather sofa, her brilliant blue eyes locking onto mine with pity that only made my stomach twist violently."Tyler," she began softly, her voice carrying a calm, grounded weight that I desperately wanted to tear down. "Look at me. Do you really think I would walk into your home, bring a private investigat

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   The Puzzle

    Tyler's POV The quiet inside my townhouse felt entirely different without the chaotic, beautiful noise of Caleb and Leena running down the hallways. The expansive living room was bathed in the gray light of the late afternoon, the heavy silence between Sarah and me magnified by the sheer weight of everything we were hiding from the rest of the world.I stood by the marble fireplace, a half-empty glass of scotch resting in my hand, watching Sarah as she sat on the leather sofa. She looked remarkably composed, dressed in a sharp ivory blazer that practically radiated executive control, but I knew her too well. I could see the tight, almost imperceptible line of her shoulders, the way her fingers traced the edge of her phone with a rhythmic, mechanical precision."I appreciate you driving out here without a detail, Sarah," I began, my voice low as I took a slow sip of the amber liquid. I leaned against the mantle, my mind already racing through the legal defenses we had drawn up over th

    SARAH’S POV "He’s not backing down, Sarah," Tyler said, his voice ringing from the Bluetooth speaker of my car. "I sat across from him, he’s completely broke because his accounts have been frozen, now he’s using the only leverage he thinks he has left. He’s demanding access to Leena." A cold spike of adrenaline shot through my veins. I gripped the wheel tighter, my eyes darting to the rearview mirror as if expecting to see Norman lurking in the traffic behind me. "You met with him? Tyler, why on earth would you go behind my back and meet with Norman without telling me first?" "I wasn't trying to go behind your back," Tyler countered smoothly, though I could hear the defensive edge in his voice. "When he first reached out, I didn't think it was necessary to drag you into it." "Nothing about Norman is simple, Tyler, and you know that," I snapped, my heart hammering against my ribs as the familiar, suffocating weight of our past began to press down on me. "What exactly did he say?"

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Another Media Mess

    Tyler's POV I sat by the window, my eyes tracing the steady stream of morning commuters hurrying past on the sidewalk, their faces buried in coats to block out the crisp New York breeze. The young café attendant approached my table, her apron neat, carrying a silver tray. She offered a warm, professional smile. "Can I get you started with anything while you wait, sir?" "Just a black coffee, please," I murmured, keeping my tone polite but distant enough to discourage any prolonged conversation. "Thank you." She smiled, nodding efficiently before turning on her heel to fetch the order. I checked the time on my watch. He was behind schedule. A few seconds later, the bell above the heavy glass entrance chimed, and a familiar figure stepped into the warmth of the café. Norman. He scanned the room with an easy, unbothered confidence that made my jaw instantly tighten. Spotting me by the window, his lips pulled into a casual, performative smile as he walked over, sliding into the lea

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Childhood Trauma

    The drive to Caleb’s School was the first time in weeks I had been completely alone with my thoughts, without the constant, watchful presence of a security detail in the passenger seat. I hadn't brought myself to hire a replacement for Dex yet; the idea of someone else sitting in that driver’s seat felt like a betrayal I wasn't ready to commit. I gripped the steering wheel, my knuckles white as I navigated the winding roads of the valley, the silence in the car amplified by the roaring of my own pulse.The school was a fortress of privilege, a sprawling campus designed to keep the world out and the elite safe within. As soon as I pulled into the designated parking lot and stepped out of the vehicle, the atmosphere shifted. One of the perimeter security guards spotted me immediately, his hand flying to the telecom unit on his shoulder as he spoke in a low, urgent tone.By the time I reached the grand stone archway of the main entrance, I didn't even have to reach for the door.
