For several long seconds, no one answered.

The oppressive silence that settled over the living room seemed to grow heavier with every passing heartbeat, pressing down on everyone present until it became difficult to breathe.

The bodyguard could feel beads of cold sweat trickling down the back of his neck beneath the stiff collar of his suit.

His pulse thundered inside his ears, drowning out every other sound.

Although the room was comfortably cool, he felt as though he were standing ben

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [178] You Are Not My Wife

    The next morning, the Lockwood mansion felt strangely quiet. The children were in the living room, watching a cartoon, but even their laughter seemed softer than usual.Clara sat beside them, occasionally running her fingers through Sophie's hair while Emily leaned against her side. Lucas sat on the opposite couch with his phone in his hand, though he hadn't looked at the screen for several minutes.Something was different, and none of them could quite put their finger on it.The mansion was still their home, the same walls surrounded them, and the same familiar routines should have brought them comfort, yet there was an uneasiness hanging over everything.Jade had been gone since early morning. Alexander and Connor had left shortly after breakfast, and neither man had explained where they were going.Clara already knew, however. They were going to bring Vivienne back.She had gone out the night before, and never returned. For the first time since the woman had walked into their li

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [177] The Horrible Truth

    Vivienne Ashford!Not the woman they had seen recently, but a younger Vivienne standing beside a vehicle.Another photograph followed. Vivienne talking to a mechanic.Then, in another photograph, Vivienne was handing someone an envelope.Then another picture appeared. Vivienne was entering a private garage.Jade stared at the photographs without blinking. The pieces finally fit together with horrifying precision. Vivienne hadn't simply taken advantage of Lena's death. She had created it. She had removed the woman standing between herself and the life she wanted, then disappeared long enough to transform herself into the person she had envied for years."She killed Lena! She fucking killed my wife!"Nobody answered. They didn't need to. Because the evidence was enough.For six years, Jade had believed that the woman he loved had died in a tragic accident. He had mourned her. He had buried her. He had raised their children while carrying the weight of her absence, forcing himself to

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [176] The Woman Behind the Mask

    A FEW DAYS LATER!Jade stood at the center of the study with his arms folded across his chest, his gaze fixed on the large screen Connor had connected to his laptop. Alexander stood beside him, his expression unusually grim, while Connor remained near the desk, scrolling through the final pieces of information their investigation team had gathered. None of the three men had spoken for several minutes. They had spent the better part of the night putting together fragments that had seemed meaningless individually but horrifying when placed beside one another. The more they uncovered, the more impossible the truth became, and yet every new piece of evidence continued pointing in the same direction.Clara's name appeared repeatedly in the documents.So did Lena's.And beneath both names was another name that none of them had expected to see.Vivienne Ashford.Jade's eyes narrowed as he stared at it. "Who is she?"Connor slowly exhaled and placed the tablet on the desk. "That's exactly

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [175] A Mother's Rage, A Father's Judgment

    The silence that settled over the Lockwood mansion was suffocating. Not even the servants dared to breathe too loudly. Shards of shattered glass still glittered across the floor, catching the afternoon sunlight pouring through the towering windows. Water continued spreading slowly over the tiles, yet no one stepped forward to clean it. Every maid, servant, and bodyguard remained exactly where they were, too frightened to interrupt the confrontation unfolding before them. Lena slowly lowered the hand covering her burning cheek. The marks from Clara's two slaps were still clearly visible. Fresh tears rolled down her face, making her look every bit like a helpless woman who had been unfairly mistreated. Had anyone walked into the mansion at that moment without knowing what had happened, they would have undoubtedly believed Clara had been the aggressor. Unfortunately for Lena... Jade had witnessed everything. His expression remained unreadable, but everyone present could feel

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [174] The Line She Would Never Allow Anyone to Cross

    Clara's chest rose and fell with ragged breaths, her hands trembling at her sides as she fought to control the fury surging through her veins. Her eyes burned with a rage so fierce that everyone instinctively stepped back, even though she hadn't moved toward them. There was something almost primal in her expression, something that made it painfully clear that the gentle woman they knew had disappeared beneath the protective instincts of a mother who had just discovered someone had hurt her children. Clara pointed directly at Lena. "You touched them?" Her voice shook violently. "You actually dared to lay your hands on my children? HOW DARE YOU?!" Lena clutched her burning cheek in disbelief, her eyes widening as she stared at Clara. "C-Clara... You don't understand—" "I understand perfectly!" Clara shouted, her voice echoing through the mansion. "They're little girls! They're children! How dare you hurt them!" Lena hurriedly shook her head, tears already gathering in her

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [173] "Mom Pinched Us! A Mother's Fury

    Nearly two months had passed since Lena's sudden return. On the surface, life inside the Lockwood mansion had settled into something that almost resembled normal. Everything looked peaceful from the outside, yet everyone inside the mansion knew that nothing truly was. No one spoke about it aloud because no one wanted to disturb the fragile balance they had somehow managed to maintain. It was a peace built entirely on silence, and everyone understood how easily that silence could shatter. The children carried the heaviest burden of all. They loved Clara with all their hearts. She had become the mother who tucked them into bed each night, kissed scraped knees, chased away nightmares, cooked their favorite meals, celebrated their smallest achievements, and comforted them whenever tears appeared. To them, Clara was simply Mom. She was the person they ran toward when they were frightened, the person whose arms always felt like home. But now, the woman they had been tol

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [5] You Are All Fired!!! Mother Hen!

    Clara pulled Sophie closer, pressing the little girl gently against her chest as the child’s sobs shook her small body. “Shhh…” Clara murmured softly, her voice low and comforting as she rubbed the girl’s back in slow, steady strokes. “It’s okay… you’re safe now. Mommy is here.” She let Sophie

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [4] What Happened?

    The living room remained frozen in stunned silence after the slaps. No one moved. No one even seemed to breathe. Vanessa still sat on the floor exactly where she had fallen, her once elegant posture shattered as both hands clutched her burning cheeks. Her entire body trembled faintly as she

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [3] Facing An Enemy From The Past

    Clara’s heart shattered the moment she saw them. For a brief moment, she remained frozen at the top of the staircase, her fingers gripping the railing as a crushing wave of emotion surged violently through her chest. The three children looked painfully small standing in the center of the vast l

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [2] Returned From The Dead

    Clara's eyes flew open as a sharp, ragged gasp tore from her throat. Her chest heaved violently, as though she had just been dragged from the crushing depths of a frozen ocean, and her lungs burned as she sucked in air again and again, each breath loud and uneven. Her body trembled uncontroll
