His Accidental Mrs Chapter 60— The Line Between Us
It started with a knock.Soft. Three taps. Not loud enough to wake the children. But enough to raise my pulse.Adrian opened the door cautiously. A man in a gray suit handed him an envelope and left without a word.Consuelo had warned us this might happen.Inside the envelope was a letter.From Eliora’s new lawyer.It read: The petitioner intends to pursue visitation rights for the child known as Lucian. Failure to acknowledge this claim within the next fourteen days will result in a formal summons to court.I didn’t speak. Neither did Adrian. We just stared at the words, the ink still fresh with menace.“She’s not giving up,” I whispered.“She never intended to.” *****************Later that evening, I found myself in the nursery, staring at Micah’s crib. Zaya was asleep beside him, her hand clutching the corner of his blanket. He mumbled in his sleep, a soft sound that reminded me he was still innocent. Still untouched.But Micah wasn’t here.And that gap—his absence—it

The room was quiet except for the faint tick of the clock on the wall. Adrian stood by the window, his silhouette outlined by the soft glow of the moonlight. I sat at the edge of the bed, Micah asleep in my arms, his tiny hand curled against my chest. Zaya had finally drifted off in the crib, her breathing steady, rhythmic, like a lullaby whispered by peace. But peace never lasted long in our house anymore.The report sat unopened on the nightstand.Consuelo had sent it two hours ago.Adrian hadn’t touched it.But I had.And what I read still echoed in the hollows of my chest.A name I hadn’t seen in years.One I never expected to surface again.Kaelen.He was the only secret I had left. The only one Eliora didn’t know about.And now, someone had dug him up from the ashes.Years AgoWe were sixteen. A boarding school hidden in the lush hills of the city. He was the kind of boy mothers warned their daughters about—sharp-tongued, fearless, too confident for his own good. But I loved him
His Accidental Mrs Chapter 58 — Unseen Threads
The tension inside the Vaughan estate was no longer a storm on the horizon,it was the air they breathed.For weeks now, Adrian’s once-pristine empire had turned into a battleground of whispers, secrets, and silent accusations. The press kept hammering at their doors, not with questions about the company’s growth or new launches, but about the family. About custody hearings, court appeals, mental evaluations, and rumors of another woman who might not be who she claimed to be.But today, something new had shifted.The estate’s silence was not peace. It was preparation.The boardroom echoed with tension. The directors filed in with their folders and skepticism. Adrian stood at the head, wearing a dark navy suit that made his posture look even more rigid.Consuelo took the floor first."As of this morning, we’ve received three formal threats of lawsuits alleging fraudulent transfer of power," she began. "All traced to the rival firm owned by Adrian’s uncle. They’re making noise. Enough to

The storm returned, not as thunder in the skies, but as silence between hearts. Silence that screamed louder than truth.Adrian had barely spoken since the last board meeting. Not to me, not to Consuelo, not even to the children. He wandered the halls like a man reliving a war—one that hadn’t ended, only paused. And the moment he received that message from the unnamed number, something cracked in him.We know what you did in Morocco.He didn’t explain.He didn’t have to.I saw it in the way his jaw clenched, in the way he ripped the SIM card out of his phone and dropped it into the fireplace like it was made of poison.Consuelo pressed him for answers, but he refused to elaborate. All he said was, “Prepare the secondary contingency file.”And then he left.For days.The children asked. Zaya, especially. She was two now, too smart for her age, her words already forming questions I wasn’t ready to answer.“Why is Daddy mad?” she whispered one night.I didn’t answer.Because Daddy wasn’t

The house had returned to its quiet rhythm. Micah laughed louder, Zaya ran faster, and for a moment, Adrian and I started believing peace could stay longer than a few stolen days.But peace, like trust, is fragile.It cracked again one Wednesday morning.I was in the garden with the twins, watching Micah chase a butterfly while Zaya tried to eat grass. Adrian was on a call with the Vaughan board inside. Vanessa had taken the day off.And then the gates buzzed.I frowned.No expected visitors.No appointments on the calendar.Security answered the gate intercom, then ran inside a minute later, pale-faced."There’s a woman at the gate. She says her name is Celeste. Says she’s Eliora’s friend."The name hit like ice water down my spine.Celeste.The same Celeste Eliora used to call at midnight. The one who bailed her out of fights, sent cryptic gifts, and disappeared like a shadow every time I tried to meet her."She says she has something to give you."I stood up slowly.Adrian came out

The courthouse steps felt different this time.No cameras. No reporters. Just peace.Consuelo walked beside us, a faint smile twitching at the edge of her lips.“Enjoy this moment,” she said. “You earned it.”Adrian nodded. I squeezed her hand.“I thought it would feel like a victory,” I admitted. “But it just feels… finished.”“That’s exactly what a true victory feels like,” she replied. “Not triumphant. Just clean.”We watched Eliora disappear into the back of a black car.No more yelling. No threats. Just silence.She hadn’t said a word since the ruling. Her attorney, Roth, had barely looked us in the eye. His resignation came hours later.Vanessa met us by the SUV.“They’re rerouting the kids back home,” she said. “Two hours.”I nodded and stepped in.For the first time in months, the drive home didn’t feel like running from something.It felt like coming back.Zaya came barreling into my arms first, curls bouncing, eyes wide.“Mama!”Micah followed slower, wobbling a little, his
