The car ride home was silent.

Daniel kept glancing at Jamie through the rearview mirror, but the boy didn’t look up. His eyes stared out the window, his lips pressed into a thin line. The happy child who once followed him around with endless questions now sat like a block of stone.

As soon as they parked in front of the house, Jamie unbuckled his seatbelt without waiting and flung the door open.

“Jamie—” Daniel called, but the boy was already halfway to the door.

Lena appeared just as Jamie stormed past her.

“Jamie! You’re back early—wait, what’s wrong?” she asked, stepping aside.

But Jamie didn’t say a word. He didn’t even look at her.

He ran straight up the stairs, his feet stomping with each step until a loud slam echoed through the house. His door had shut, hard.

Lena turned sharply to Daniel, confusion flashing in her eyes.

Lena immediately turned to him. “What happened? Why is Jamie acting like this?”

Daniel pulled off his jacket slowly, his eyes still focused on the stairs. “He

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   The night

    Maya stood in front of the full-length mirror, smoothing the soft folds of her dress one last time. The stylist had done her hair in loose, elegant waves that framed her face, and the subtle makeup brought out the warm tones of her eyes. She hardly recognized herself—not because she looked like someone else, but because she looked like the version of herself she had never allowed the world to see. Tonight, she wasn’t just Maya the fashion designer; she was Elias Carter’s girlfriend, walking into the heart of his family’s world.She had barely finished fastening her bracelet when her phone began to buzz on the dresser. She picked it up and saw his name flash across the screen.“Hello?” she said softly, her voice catching slightly.“I’m here,” Elias’s deep voice came through, smooth but warm. “At the estate gate.”For a moment, her stomach flipped. It wasn’t nerves from seeing him—it was the thought of what came next. Taking a slow breath, she crossed to the window and glanced out at t

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Styling

    The morning sunlight slipped gently through the curtains of Maya’s room, painting golden stripes across the soft cream walls. She opened her eyes slowly, still feeling the weight of sleep on her lashes. For a moment, she lay there, listening to the faint sounds of the estate waking up — the soft hum of a vacuum somewhere down the hall, the muffled voices of maids talking in the distance, and the faint clinking of dishes coming from the kitchen.Today was the day of Elias’s family dinner night.She wasn’t going yet — that would come later — but her mother had made it very clear the night before: Maya would be getting styled properly for the occasion. Whether she liked it or not.Maya sighed and rolled onto her back. She had tried to insist on going simple, maybe just doing her own hair and makeup. But her mother had looked at her as though she had just suggested wearing pajamas to a royal wedding. “Absolutely not,” Mrs. Denovan had said, her tone leaving no room for argument. “It’s y

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Whispers and Wheels

    The morning sun was bright as Maya stepped out of the Denovan estate, dressed smartly in a navy-blue dress and beige heels. A pair of maids had already helped load her handbag and lunch into the car.Her new car.A black Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon waited in the driveway, polished to perfection. It still felt surreal, even though she’d driven it twice already. The seats were smooth, the engine powerful, and everything about it screamed wealth and class.Maya took a deep breath before getting in. She adjusted the mirror, started the car, and pulled out of the estate gates with quiet confidence. She was going back to work—back to her old life—but everything was different now.As she neared her office building, her heart started to race.She parked the G-Wagon carefully in the company parking lot and noticed immediately how heads turned.A few of her co-workers walking past paused mid-step. Others peeked from windows upstairs.Maya got out of the car with a polite nod and a small smile, preten

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Day of Quiet Moments

    Maya woke up to the soft sound of birds singing just outside her window. The curtains were already pulled back slightly, letting in the warm morning sunlight. She sat up slowly in bed, feeling the gentle breeze from the open window brush against her skin.For a moment, she didn’t move. She just sat there, taking it all in.She slid out of bed and walked across the room barefoot. The marble floor was cold but smooth beneath her feet. Everything in her room still looked so new and beautiful—elegant furniture, soft curtains, fresh flowers in a vase. It felt like a dream, but one she was slowly getting used to.After washing up and changing into a soft cream dress, Maya stepped outside her room. The hallway was quiet, and the air smelled faintly of coffee and flowers. She followed the scent down the stairs and into the kitchen, where she found the chef and two maids already working.“Good morning, Miss Maya,” one of them greeted politely.“Good morning,” Maya replied with a small smile. “

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Shopping Day

    The car pulled to a smooth stop in front of a tall, elegant building with a golden sign that read “Maison Élise”. It was one of the most famous designer boutiques in the city, known for dressing celebrities, socialites, and powerful families. The windows were decorated with shimmering gowns, shoes on glass shelves, and sparkling accessories.Maya looked out the window in awe. “Mom… this place looks expensive.”Mrs. Denovan gave her a gentle smile. “Only the best for my daughter.”Anika sat beside them, swinging her legs excitedly. “Can I try something too?”“Of course,” her grandmother said, reaching over to fix Anika’s collar. “Let’s spoil all of us today.”The driver opened the door, and the three of them stepped out. As soon as they entered the boutique, a wave of quiet attention rolled through the store.The attendants, all dressed in neat black uniforms, quickly stood in a line on both sides of the main hallway, bowing slightly as Mrs. Denovan entered.Maya blinked, surprised.

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Morning at the Estate

    Warm sunlight streamed through the soft cream curtains as Maya slowly opened her eyes. It took her a moment to remember where she was. This wasn’t her apartment—it was her new room at the Denovan estate.The room was beautiful. Soft pastel colors filled the space—light lavender curtains, cream-colored bedding, and pale rose wallpaper with a floral pattern. A large window overlooked the garden, and on the other side of the room stood a neat desk with some of her own design tools already placed on top.As she sat up, she heard quiet footsteps around the room. Two maids were already moving about. One was gently dusting the furniture while the other was preparing her bath in the connected bathroom.Maya blinked in surprise. “Oh… good morning,” she said, still a little sleepy.The maids bowed slightly and smiled politely.She stretched and looked around. Everything was perfect—but it still felt strange to be waited on like this. Back at her apartment, she always did things on her own. She
