Patrick stood near the window, arms crossed, staring out into the dark driveway as if the answers might appear in the headlights of a passing car. Angelo leaned against the kitchen counter, rolling a toothpick between his fingers — a habit he had when he was thinking through a problem.

Sophia sat quietly at the table, her phone still in her hand after hanging up with Dominic.

The room was heavy with silence.

Finally Patrick spoke.

“We’re going to Georgia.”

Sophia looked up immediately.

“What?”

  • How I Catfished my Husband and his Girlfriend   Chapter 231

    The silence after the police left felt unfamiliar.Not peaceful.But temporarily stable.Patrick checked the cameras again from the kitchen table.Empty street.No headlights.No movement near the driveway.“She’s gone for now,” he said quietly.Sophia stood near the staircase, staring at nothing for a moment too long.The adrenaline crash was finally starting to hit her.Dominic noticed immediately.“You need to sit down.”Sophia shook her head faintly.“If I sit down, I’m not getting back up.”Patrick gave a tired half-smile.“Honestly? That’s fair.”For the first time all night, a tiny crack of normal human energy slipped back into the room.Brief.Fragile.But there.Dominic walked slowly toward Sophia again.This time softer.No frustration.No panic.Just concern.“You haven’t stopped moving since this morning,” he said quietly.Sophia rubbed both hands over her face.“I feel like if I stop paying attention something bad happens.”That honesty hit hard.Because everybody in the

    A firm knock echoed through the house.Not aggressive.Official.Patrick moved first, checking the front camera one more time before unlocking the door.A uniformed officer stood outside beneath the porch light, another patrol car idling farther down the street.“Evening,” the officer said calmly. “Who made the call?”“I did,” Patrick answered, stepping aside slightly.The officer entered carefully, immediately noticing the tension inside the house.The packed bags near the stairs.The exhausted faces.The laptop open to security footage.“This is Sophia,” Patrick said quietly.The officer nodded politely toward her.“Ma’am.”Sophia stepped forward slowly, arms crossed tightly against herself.“She was here again,” she said quietly.The officer’s expression stayed professional.“Kristi?”Sophia blinked slightly.“You know her name?”The officer exchanged a brief glance with his partner outside before answering carefully.“We’ve had prior calls tonight involving the same individual.”T

    Downstairs, the glow from Patrick’s laptop reflected across the dark kitchen as he watched the street cameras again.The same vehicle.Same slow pass.Same deliberate pacing.Patrick leaned back in the chair, jaw tightening.“She’s not even trying to hide it anymore,” he muttered quietly to himself.The house stayed still around him.Kids asleep upstairs.Sophia finally lying down for the first time all night.Dominic beside her.And outside—Kristi circling like she couldn’t let the night end.Patrick grabbed his phone and took another screenshot for the file.Time-stamped.Documented.Pattern established.Then another notification appeared.Motion detected — side street camera.Patrick opened it immediately.The car had stopped farther down the block this time.Lights off.Parked.Patrick’s entire expression changed.Upstairs, Dominic was still awake beside Sophia.He could feel it in her breathing.Too shallow.Too alert.“You still thinking?” he asked quietly.Sophia laughed softl

    Dominic watched Sophia sitting at the kitchen table, shoulders tight, eyes exhausted, phone still buzzing every few minutes like the night refused to let her breathe.For the first time all day—she looked overwhelmed.Not focused.Not strategic.Just tired.Patrick stayed crouched beside her for another second before finally standing.“She needs rest,” he said quietly.Dominic nodded slowly.Then moved toward Sophia without hesitation.He gently took the phone from her hands and muted it completely before setting it face down on the counter.“No more tonight.”Sophia looked up at him, exhaustion written all over her face.“I can’t shut my brain off.”Dominic reached down and took her hand carefully.Not forceful.Grounding.“Come on,” he said softly.“Let’s try to sleep.”Sophia looked toward the windows instinctively.Then toward the stairs.Then toward Patrick.Patrick gave her a small nod.“I’ve got downstairs.”Dominic squeezed her hand lightly.“Come on,” he repeated quietly.“L

    Sophia stayed quiet for a moment after Pasquale said it.Let me carry this part now.Those words hit harder than anything else had tonight.Because she hadn’t realized how badly she needed to hear them.The kitchen around her blurred for just a second.Patrick quietly turned back toward the cameras, giving her space.Dominic stayed seated, watching her carefully but not interrupting.Sophia finally spoke softly into the phone.“I don’t know how this got this bad.”Pasquale answered immediately.“Because you kept trying to handle it peacefully.”Sophia let out a shaky breath.“She followed the kids today.”Saying it out loud again made it feel even more real.“I know,” Pasquale replied quietly.“And tomorrow, everybody else is going to know too.”Sophia leaned against the counter slightly, exhaustion finally catching up to her.“She keeps texting like she knows everything we’re doing.”Pasquale’s voice hardened again.“That’s because she’s spiraling. She’s trying to maintain psychologi

    The house stayed tense long after the headlights disappeared.Nobody trusted the quiet anymore.Not after tonight.Patrick kept monitoring the cameras from the kitchen table while Dominic stood near the living room window, forcing himself not to look outside every thirty seconds.Sophia stayed in the middle of it all.Calm.Focused.But exhausted down to her bones.Another motion alert flashed across Patrick’s screen.Everyone looked immediately.Empty street.No visible car this time.“She’s parking farther down now,” Patrick said quietly.Dominic let out a sharp breath.“She’s literally hunting us.”Sophia looked toward the stairs instinctively.Toward the sleeping kids.“No,” she said quietly.“She’s trying to intimidate us.”Patrick nodded once.“And she’s escalating because she knows tomorrow changes everything.”That hung in the room.Because tomorrow did change everything.The mayor.The EMS Chief.Official attention.Questions she wouldn’t be able to manipulate away.Dominic f

    Headlights cut through the dark road like knives.The truck rolled slowly along the quiet Georgia street, gravel crunching under the tires. The driver killed the headlights before the vehicle even reached the end of the road.John sat behind the wheel, staring through the windshield.There it was.

    Months passed, and the initial whirlwind of eloping settled into a rhythm for Sophia and Dominic. Their love, tested and tempered by threats, distance, and chaos, had only deepened. Every day together felt more solid, more real.

    Sophia moved to the back of the house, her hand lightly resting on the railing of the second-story balcony. The security cameras gave her a perfect view of the driveway, the dark silhouettes of trees framing John’s truck like a scene from a movie she never wanted to star in.Patrick and Angelo flan

  • How I Catfished my Husband and his Girlfriend   Chapter 42

    Morning came slowly over the estate, the soft Texas sunlight slipping through the tall windows of Sophia’s room. She hadn’t slept much. Every time she closed her eyes, flashes of the night before crept in—John’s anger, the way Patrick stepped between them, the sound of Angelo pulling his gun.But i
