At first, Jamie was happy after Maya left the house. He didn’t cry or ask where she had gone. In fact, he smiled more and looked excited. That was because Lena, his favorite “Auntie Lena,” had finally moved in.

She brought in her soft perfumes and pretty clothes. She smiled at him often and cooked him sweet pancakes in the morning. Jamie thought, This is what a perfect family looks like. And Lena treated him like he was her own child—at least for the first few days.

But something slowly began to change.

Jamie didn’t notice it right away. But as the days passed, he started to feel something different about Lena. She wasn’t as warm as before. When Jamie would run into the room, eager to show her a drawing he made at school, she would just nod without even looking.

“I’m busy right now, Jamie,” she said, waving her hand like she was brushing away a fly. “Later, okay?”

Jamie stood there, holding his drawing. The crayons had smudged a little from how hard he pressed. “Okay…” he said s

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Settling In

    It had been a week since Jamie moved into the Denovan estate, and everything felt different. The house was filled with footsteps, laughter, and a mix of small voices echoing through the long hallways.Jamie had brought a new energy into the home a bright, boyish charm that reminded Maya of what childhood should be: simple, messy, and full of life. He and Anika quickly became inseparable, often found together in the garden or curled up in the library, pretending to study while whispering and giggling about things only children could understand.From the doorway, Maya watched them with a soft smile as they ran around the flowerbeds that morning, their laughter ringing in the cool air. Jamie was chasing Anika with a butterfly net, both of them barefoot and carefree.Mrs. Denovan joined her, holding a cup of tea. “Those two are a handful,” she said, her tone warm. “But I can’t remember the last time this house felt so alive.”Maya nodded. “I think they needed each other. Jamie’s been thr

    The morning air was calm, carrying the soft rustle of leaves across the Denovan estate. The gate creaked open slowly as Daniel’s car pulled in, tires crunching lightly against the driveway. Maya stood by the porch, her heart beating faster than she wanted to admit.Anika peeked from behind her mother, holding a small stuffed bear. “Is that Jamie, Mommy?” she whispered, her eyes bright with curiosity.“Yes, sweetheart,” Maya said, smoothing her daughter’s hair. “Be kind to him, okay? He’s been through a lot lately.”Anika nodded solemnly, though her excitement was impossible to hide.The car door opened, and Jamie stepped out, clutching a small backpack. His eyes darted around the large compound, clearly nervous. He spotted Maya and froze for a second before running toward her.“Mommy!” he cried, his small voice cracking.Maya dropped to her knees and opened her arms. Jamie threw himself into her embrace, burying his face against her shoulder. She felt the tension in his body, the exha

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   A Brother for Anika

    The call came early in the morning, just as Maya was preparing breakfast in the Denovan kitchen. The scent of warm toast and eggs filled the air, and Anika sat at the counter, swinging her legs and humming softly while sketching on her tablet.Her phone vibrated on the counter, and when she saw Daniel’s name flashing on the screen, her heart skipped a beat. For a second, she hesitated. It had been weeks since she last spoke to him But curiosity and something deeper made her answer.“Daniel?” she said softly, keeping her voice neutral.He sighed on the other end. “Maya… I wouldn’t have called if it wasn’t important.”“What happened?” she asked, already sensing the heaviness in his tone.“It’s about Jamie,” he said. “Lena’s gone. She packed her things and left the house. We divorced And Jamie’s been…” His voice faltered. “He’s been refusing to eat. He doesn’t want to talk to me. He says he wants to stay with you.”Maya closed her eyes for a moment, her chest tightening. “Daniel, he’s yo

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   The Turning Tide

    The press conference was supposed to last twenty minutes. It went on for almost an hour.Every major media outlet was there cameras flashing, microphones lined up on the table in front of Mr. Denovan, Colton, and Maya. Behind them hung the Denovan family crest, glowing softly under the lights. The atmosphere was tense but dignified.Mr. Denovan adjusted his tie, his expression calm yet firm. “We are deeply saddened by the recent tragedy,” he began, his voice steady. “But we will not remain silent while lies destroy innocent lives. The Denovan family had no hand in what happened to the late Miss Tyler. Her passing is a tragedy, but vengeance and false accusations will not bring her back.”The reporters scribbled furiously, the clicking of their pens echoing in the room. Maya sat quietly beside him, her hands clasped on the table. Her heart raced, but she forced herself to stay composed. Elias had told her to hold her head high and she was determined to do exactly that.Colton stepped i

    The storm didn’t fade it grew teeth.Within forty-eight hours of Harold Tyler’s outburst, his grief had transformed into strategy. His business empire stretched across industries construction, media, luxury imports and one by one, his allies began to fall in line behind him.By Monday morning, Maya’s phone was flooded but this time, not with hateful messages. It was worse.April burst into her office, her face pale. “Ma’am,” she said breathlessly, “three of our clients just called. They’re canceling their orders. They said it’s… because of the Tyler situation.”Maya froze, the words sinking like stones in her chest. “What?”“They said they can’t risk their brand image right now,” April continued nervously. “One of them even said Mr. Tyler personally called to ‘advise’ them to cut ties.”Maya closed her eyes, steadying herself. “Alright. Thank you, April. Let me handle this.”When April left, Maya sat at her desk, her hand trembling slightly as she reached for her phone. She called Eli

Cameras flashed as he spoke, his voice trembling but sharp.“My daughter is dead because of them,” he declared, his hand shaking as he pointed toward the cameras. “Because of the Denovan family and Elias Carter…the man who broke her heart and humiliated her before the entire world.”The reporters pressed closer, microphones raised, eager for more.“They ruined her,” Harold continued, his wife sobbing silently behind him. “If justice won’t punish them, I will.
