The silence didn’t last long.

By the next week, everything started unraveling fast.

Maeve stopped coming around completely.

No more texts.

No more coffee.

No more pretending.

It was like she disappeared overnight.

Sophia stood in the kitchen one morning staring at her phone.

Patrick leaned against the counter.

“She’s gone.”

Sophia nodded.

“Yeah.”

Patrick watched her carefully.

“You okay with that?”

Sophia exhaled slowly.

“I don’t miss her.”

Patrick raised an eyebrow.

“No?”

Sophia shook her head

  • How I Catfished my Husband and his Girlfriend   Chapter 175

    Sophia stared at the screen.Her fingers hovered.Then dropped.Then hovered again.It wasn’t just a message.It was everything she didn’t say that night.Everything she pushed down so she could go home…and hold everything else together.She wasn’t scared of Patrick.Not right now.She was scared of opening something she had worked so hard to close.Sophia just had to think, and then..Her thumbs moved.Slow.Careful.“You didn’t give me a choice.”She read it.Once.Twice.Then hit send.No immediate reply.For the first time—He didn’t answer right away.Her chest tightened.Her heart racing.Not from fear—From release.Finally—The screen lit up.“You’re right.”“I didn’t.”“And I hate that I did that to you. because we had such a good thing, and a close relationship that it all crumbled quickly.”Sophia swallowed hard.Because this wasn’t excuses.This wasn’t “I thought you wanted it.”This was accountability.Her fingers moved again.Faster this time.“You took advantage of me

  • How I Catfished my Husband and his Girlfriend   Chapter 174

    Weeks turned into months.And for once—Nothing exploded.No chaos.No late-night fights.No doors slammed.Just… life.Soccer games on Saturdays.Homework at the kitchen table.Family dinners that actually felt like family dinners.Sophia watched it carefully.Not waiting for it to fall apart—But aware it could.Dominic didn’t slip.Not once.He stayed in therapy.Stayed present.Stayed accountable.And slowly—Sophia stopped questioning every move he made.One night, they laughed.Really laughed.About something stupid.And Sophia caught herself—Not guarding it.Not bracing for the next thing.Just… in it.She looked at him differently after that.Not as the man who hurt her.Not as the man she was rebuilding with.But as both.Because she wasn’t forgetting.She was choosing.Then one afternoon—Her phone buzzed.A number she didn’t recognize.“I know you told me not to contact you, but I needed to say this…”Sophia’s stomach tightened.Patrick.She stared at the message.Didn’t o

    The house felt different that afternoon.Not tense.Not easy.Just… prepared.Sophia moved through the kitchen, straightening things that didn’t need straightening.Wiping counters that were already clean.Anything to keep her hands busy.Her mind focused.Dominic stayed close—but not too close.Giving her space.But present.“Everything’s good,” he said quietly.Sophia nodded.“Yeah".Then—Tires on the driveway.Sophia froze for half a second.Her heart jumping.Everything else disappeared.Not Patrick.Not Montana.Not the fight.Just—Her girls.She moved fast this time.No hesitation.Opening the front door just as they were getting out.“Mom!”They ran to her.Full speed.Arms wrapping around her.Sophia dropped to her knees.Holding them tight.Really tight.Breathing them in.Feeling them.Grounding herself in something real.“I missed you,” she whispered.“We missed you too!” they said, talking over each other.Excited.Happy.Unaware."Dad", Sophia stated.Pasquale stood by

    They stood there in the living room.Not touching.Not fighting.Not pretending.Just… standing.And somehow—That said everything.“I still love you,” Dominic said quietly.No pride.No ego.Just truth.She didn’t answer right away.Because love—Wasn’t the question.It never had been.Then finally—“I love you too.”That was the part that made everything harder.Not easier.Because if they didn’t love each other—This would be simple.Walk away.Close the door.Move on.But they did.Deeply.Sophia looked at him.“Love isn’t what we’re missing.”Dominic nodded.“I know.”“It’s everything around it,” she said.“Trust.”“Respect.”“Safety.”Each word landed heavier than the last.“I want to fix that,” he said.Not defensive.Not desperate.Just… honest.“I want that too,” she said.A beat.“But wanting it isn’t enough anymore.”Dominic stepped closer.Careful.Like he didn’t want to push too far.“What does enough look like?”Sophia took a breath.“Consistency.”“Time.”“And no more b

    Sophia didn’t sleep much.If she did—it was light, restless, broken.Every time she closed her eyes, her mind replayed the night.Not clearly.But enough.When morning came, she was already awake.Sitting at the edge of the bed.Fully dressed.Shoes on.Like she was ready to leave before the day even started.Patrick stood in the doorway.Quiet.Careful.“Morning,” he said.Sophia didn’t look at him.“Don’t.”One word.Flat.He stopped.“I just—”“I said don’t,” she repeated.Still not yelling.Still not emotional.Which somehow made it worse.Sophia stood up.Grabbed her bag.“I trusted you.”That hit harder than anything else she could have said.Patrick didn’t try to explain it away.Didn’t interrupt.“I know,” he said quietly.Sophia finally looked at him.And her eyes—Were different.Not soft.Not confused.Clear.“You don’t get to take advantage of me because I’m vulnerable.”Patrick shook his head.“I didn’t see it like that—”“That’s the problem,” she cut in.Silence filled t

    Patrick didn’t push her that evening.He watched her.Carefully.“Get dressed,” he said earlier, more relaxed than she’d seen him.Sophia raised an eyebrow.“For what?”“Dinner.”She didn’t argue.Didn’t have the energy to.The restaurant was quiet.Upscale.Nothing like the chaos she’d left behind.Patrick let her talk—or not talk.Let her drink.One glass turned into two.Then more.He followed her pace.Not ahead.Not behind.Just… with her.After dinner, he didn’t take her home.He drove.“Where are we going?” she asked.“You’ll see.”The bowling alley lights came into view.Sophia laughed for the first time in days.“Seriously?”Patrick smirked.“Yeah.”They bowled. Patrick just watched her like a hawk.. While she bowledBadly.Laughed.Drank.More than they should have.More than she realized.And for a little while—Sophia didn’t think about Dominic.Didn’t think about anything.The house was quiet when they got back.Too quiet.Sophia changed into a loose t-shirt and boxers.C

    Sophia didn’t tell them because she needed comfort.She told them because she needed calibration.Laura’s kitchen was quiet except for the hum of the refrigerator. Lilly sat at the island. Kathy leaned against the counter, arms crossed. No one interrupted when Sophia finished speaking.She didn’t d

    Sophia’s expression changed when she reached that part.Not softer.Just… unguarded.“I booked my flight to Texas fully prepared to be disappointed,” she said.Lily tilted her head. “Meaning?”“I assumed he’d be late. Or distracted. Or not show up at the gate.”Jacob frowned. “Why would you assume

    Sophia didn’t answer Dominic again that night.Instead, she texted one person.Jacob.Are you in town?Three dots appeared almost instantly.For you? Always.She almost smiled.Jacob had been in her life longer than Dominic. College. First apartment. First real job. He had watched her build herself

    Sophia stared at the floor for a long moment before speaking again.“There’s something else,” she said quietly.Jacob and Lily exchanged a look but stayed silent.“I wasn’t supposed to marry at all,” she continued. “Not officially. Not publicly.”Lily frowned slightly. “What do you mean?”“My fathe
