Dominic’s pov:

The boardroom was filled with chatter, screens glowing as Ford gave his report. I sat at the head of the table, my gaze unreadable, jaw tight, arms crossed.

The room buzzed with low voices, papers rustling as updates rolled out, but my mind wasn’t fully in it.

Not after the message Desmond forwarded earlier this morning, an anonymous tip about a possible breach in our private server.

I’d already ordered the team to trace the source. My gut told me it wasn’t random, not with how quiet Tavon had been lately.

And Suzanne… the way she looked last night, wrapped in my sheets, clinging to sleep like it was her only safe place… I couldn’t get it out of my head.

She hadn’t said much this morning, but her eyes said everything. She needed peace. And I would burn the whole world to give it to her.

“Dominic?” Ford asked, catching my attention.

I blinked once. “Continue.”

The glass windows overlooking the city reflected a pristine skyline, one I had built, piece by piece. Brick by

  • Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival   Chapter 108: “What Are You Doing Here, Dominic?”

    Dominic’s pov:I stood frozen.For a moment.For too long.Then, I moved.Fast.Because if I didn’t, I’d lose her for good.I rushed outside, my pulse thudding violently, only to see Suzanne’s car already pulling out of the driveway.She was leaving again.I didn’t think.Didn’t hesitate.I snatched my keys off the console, swung open my car door, and slid in, starting the engine before the weight of my decision could slow me down.I followed her.Not too close.Not close enough for her to notice.Just enough to watch, to see where she was staying, to understand where she had taken Kai.The streets blurred as we drove—Suzanne steady, focused, completely unaware that I was behind her.Then she turned.Into an estate.I slowed, watching as she pulled up to a unit, parked, stepped out, her movements controlled, but tight.I parked a few blocks down, my grip tight around the steering wheel, my chest too heavy, my mind racing.She closed the car door, rolling her shoulders, exhaling sharpl

  • Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival   Chapter 107: “You're Going to Lose Her”

    Dominic’s pov:The house was quiet.Too quiet.I pushed open the door, stepping into the dimly lit space, expecting something that would never come—Kai’s laughter, Suzanne’s voice, the warmth that used to greet me the moment I walked through the door.Instead, there was nothing.Just silence.Just emptiness.I set my keys on the counter, letting out a slow breath, but even that felt wrong in the quiet.One week.It had been seven days since Suzanne left.Since she took Kai.Since the house stopped feeling like a home.I walked further in, my footsteps echoing, the walls too bare, too cold, as if they could feel the loss too.Kai used to run to me the second I walked through the door, arms wide, laughter spilling out as he launched himself toward me, telling me every detail of his day before I had even taken off my shoes.Now, there was no one waiting.No one was running into my arms.No one was filling the space with life.And for the first time in years, I truly felt alone.The quiet

    Suzanne’s pov:My body felt heavy like the weight of my own grief had seeped into my bones, settling there, refusing to leave.I blinked slowly, my vision hazy, my mind struggling to piece together where I was, what time it was, and why my throat felt raw and tight like I had swallowed glass.Then it came crashing back.Last night.Dominic.The truth.My breath hitched, my chest tightening, and for a moment, I thought the world would collapse all over again.I turned my head, scanning the dimly lit bedroom, searching for any sign of him.Nothing.The bed beside me was untouched, the sheets smooth, and cold—he never came to bed.A dull ache pressed against my temples, my headlight, fogged, drained from crying myself to sleep.But even now, after hours of silence, after the passage of time—I hadn’t fully processed it yet.Kai was never sick.I shut my eyes, the words digging into me like jagged edges, tearing through every memory, every decision I had ever made because of him.The sacri

  • Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival   Chapter 105: “I Need to Talk to You”

    Suzanne's pov:Silence.Thick. Suffocating. Deafening.Dominic’s words echoed in my head, but they refused to make sense.“Your first son was never sick.”I stared at him.Waiting.For a laugh. A correction. A clarification.Something, anything, to make those words disappear, to rewind time, to undo the wreckage he had just thrown at my feet.But he didn’t speak.He just stood there, expression dark, body rigid, waiting for me to absorb the truth like it wasn’t shattering everything inside me.My pulse thundered. My breath hitched, uneven, disbelieving.“What did you just say?”Dominic swallowed. His fists clenched.“Suzanne—”“No.” My voice cracked. “Say it again.”He closed his eyes briefly, exhaling through his nose.Then—“He was never sick.”I stumbled back.Like the force of those words had physically hit me.Like they had knocked the air from my lungs and replaced it with a pain so sharp, so unbearable, that my entire body rejected it.“You’re lying.”Dominic shook his head. “I’

  • Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival   Chapter 104: The Heartbreaking Truth

    Suzanne’s pov:The drive back home was quiet, but not in an awkward way—it was the kind of silence that carried unspoken thoughts, anticipation, and the weight of what was about to happen tonight.Stella pulled up outside my house, shifting into the park before turning to me with a smirk.“Alright, this is where I leave you to face the great Dominic Khan.”I scoffed, rolling my eyes. “You make it sound like I’m about to battle a dragon.”She shrugged. “You kind of are.”I sighed, unbuckling my seatbelt, hands settling briefly on my lap.Before I stepped out, Stella’s voice softened slightly. “Hey. You got this, alright?”I glanced at her, and for a second, the teasing faded—this was just my best friend, reminding me that I wasn’t walking into this alone.“I hope so.”Her lips quirked up. “You do. And if he gives you trouble, just remember—food is a powerful weapon.”I laughed, shaking my head, and pushing open the door. “Goodbye, Stella.”“Good luck, Suzanne.”I stepped out, closing t

    Stella’s pov:I pulled up to Suzanne’s house right on time, tapping impatiently on the steering wheel as I waited.Seconds later, the front door swung open, and Kai came bounding down the porch steps like a little rocket.“Auntie Stella!”His voice was pure excitement, cutting through the crisp morning air.I grinned, pushing open my car door just in time for him to crash into me with the force of a small tornado.“Well, good morning to you too, troublemaker.” I ruffled his hair playfully. “Ready for school?”He groaned dramatically. “No.”Suzanne appeared at the door, shaking her head with amusement. “Kai, you are five. What responsibilities do you have that make school feel exhausting?”Kai sighed like he carried the weight of the world. “Math.”I laughed, draping an arm over his small shoulders. “Oh, kiddo. If only I could save you from it.”He brightened instantly. “You could! Just tell Mommy to homeschool me instead.”Suzanne scoffed. “Absolutely not. Get in the car.”Kai groane
