POV: Lewis | Location: Edinburgh

Lewis called Sienna directly.

She picked up on the third ring.

"The Granville Terrace offer," he said. "That's you."

A pause. "Yes."

"You're trying to buy our house."

"I'm trying to buy a house." Her voice was careful. "I didn't know it was the specific one you'd chosen until my agent sent me the address this morning. By then the offer was already in."

Lewis looked at Yessica. She was watching his face, reading it the way she'd learned to over the past year.

  • His Billion-Dollar Regret: The Forgotten Wife Returns   Chapter 302: Each Their Own

    [POV: Lewis] [Location: Edinburgh — Home / Various]The days between Christmas and New Year had a specific texture.Not quite holiday, not quite ordinary. The house ran on a looser schedule — later breakfasts, no school runs, the particular freedom of a week that didn't require full accountability from anyone.Lewis had always liked this week. He'd been working in some capacity for most of it for twenty years, but this year he'd blocked it out deliberately. No board calls, no Sterling Industries correspondence, nothing that required him to be in professional mode until January second.He was paying attention to the week as itself.On the twenty-seventh, Rose's phone rang at half nine in the morning.He was in the study. He heard her answer from the hallway — a single short conversation, her voice controlled in the way she controlled things now, which was different from the wall she used to hide behind. The control had become something more functional. Less defensive.She appeared in

  • His Billion-Dollar Regret: The Forgotten Wife Returns   Chapter 301: Christmas Day

    [POV: Yessica] [Location: Edinburgh — Home]She'd texted Regina back at eleven-thirty the previous night.Take a test in the morning. Call me after. You're going to be fine.Regina had replied: I already took three. All positive. David is lying on the kitchen floor staring at the ceiling.Yessica had replied: That's normal. Tell him to get up.Regina: He's up now. He made tea. We're okay.Yessica: You're more than okay. Merry Christmas.Regina: Merry Christmas. Also please tell me it gets easier after the first trimester because I am currently terrified.Yessica: It gets different. That's the honest answer.Regina: Perfect. That's exactly what I needed to hear.Christmas morning moved the way it always did — Grace awake first, then Ethan, then the slow assembly of everyone else into the kitchen for the particular chaos of a large family on a morning with too much to do before noon.Lewis made the good coffee and started preparing things in the quiet methodical way that meant dinner w

  • His Billion-Dollar Regret: The Forgotten Wife Returns   Chapter 300: Christmas Eve Together

    [POV: Yessica] [Location: Edinburgh — Home]The tree was Rose's project this year.She'd announced it in October, two weeks after the twins news had made its way through the family, with the tone of someone proposing a solution to a problem that hadn't been identified yet. Someone needs to do the tree properly this year, she'd said, and nobody had argued, and she'd spent the following six weeks occasionally sending links to things she intended to acquire.The result was better than any tree the house had seen.Not because it was elaborate — it wasn't. It was thoughtful. Each ornament had a reason to be there that Rose could explain if asked. The lights were warm rather than cool because Ethan had said cool lights looked like a crime scene and Rose had agreed with the dignity of someone whose opinion had been validated. The star at the top was Grace's — the paper one she'd made at age six that had survived five years of storage in a box that had clearly been dropped at least twice.Gr

  • His Billion-Dollar Regret: The Forgotten Wife Returns   Chapter 299: Yessica's News

    [POV: Yessica] [Location: Edinburgh — Home / Dr. Sarah Chen's Office]She'd known for three weeks.Not known exactly — suspected, then confirmed, then sat with the confirmation while everything else was happening and decided there was no right moment to say it out loud and then run out of reasons to wait.She closed the journal.Lewis was downstairs. She could hear him moving through the kitchen, the specific rhythm of him making tea before bed, the sound that had become so embedded in her sense of what home was that she registered its absence before its presence.She got up. Went downstairs.He looked up when she came in."Tea?" he said."Sit down," she said. "I need to tell you something."He set the kettle down and sat at the table. He read her face with the careful attention he'd been giving her since the garden trip — present, not alarmed, but fully focused."Three weeks ago I went to Dr. Chen," she said. "Not for the grief about my mother. I went because I'd been tired in a spe

  • His Billion-Dollar Regret: The Forgotten Wife Returns   Chapter 298: Before She Left

    [POV: Lewis] [Location: Edinburgh — Home / Study]He didn't sleep well.Not badly — just lightly, in the way of someone whose mind was still running through something and hadn't decided to stop.The recordings.He'd grown up in a house where Catherine controlled everything, including what was kept and what was discarded. She'd been systematic about it. After the divorce, after the conviction, after every stage of her removal from his life, he'd assumed the past was gone with her. Not just her presence — the evidence of it. The physical record.She'd kept recordings of his voice. From when he was small.He didn't know how to feel about that. He was still working it out.At six in the morning he got up and made coffee and sat at the kitchen table with a blank notepad, which was what he did when he needed to think without direction.He wrote one line: She remembered what she had before she destroyed it.He looked at it for a while.Then he turned the page.Eleanor called at nine with th

  • His Billion-Dollar Regret: The Forgotten Wife Returns   Chapter 297: Claire's Decision

    [POV: Yessica] [Location: Edinburgh — Claire's Flat]Claire opened the door before they knocked.She'd heard the car. That was Claire — always one step ahead of the sequence, already positioned for what came next.She looked at both of them, assessed their faces, and said, "You heard about Catherine.""Eleanor called," Lewis said."Are you okay?""Yes. Come in. I made actual food this time, not just coffee."The flat was warm. Something was in the oven — a proper tray bake, the kind that required actual preparation. Yessica registered that and understood it: Claire cooked when she'd made a decision she felt settled about. The cooking was the tell.They sat at the small kitchen table. Claire served food without ceremony and sat across from them with her hands flat on the table and the direct eye contact she used when she was about to say something she'd been thinking about for a long time."I'm still going to Stanford," she said first. "I want that on the record before anything else."

    POV: Yessica | Location: EdinburghThe room was smaller than she'd expected.Cream walls. A table. Two chairs facing the registrar's desk.
