I had finished showering, scrubbing my skin until it was raw, as if I could wash away the events of the evening. The scent of the expensive perfume I had worn for the party swirled down the drain, replaced by the scent of my own soap, but the anxiety remained clinging to me like a second skin. I changed into a set of soft, worn loungewear, but it offered no comfort.

My mind was racing, hitting a million miles an hour. I knew exactly why Eric had asked me to meet him in his study. I knew it wasn

  • My Best Friend’s Uncle… and My Baby Daddy   Chapter 238

    Autumn stood in front of the mirror, straightening out any misalignment on her dress as she let out another sigh. It was the umpteenth time today.She had been melancholic ever since she found out her daughter’s name.For fuck’s sake, she had learned her own child’s name from a plaque.A damn plaque on the wall. And instead of answering her, Eric had thrown her own words back at her.The first thing she did when she got home was search for any grave marked with that name. If Eric didn’t want to tell her where their daughter was buried, she would find it herself.That search led her to one conclusion: either Eric had scattered the ashes, or the remains were currently in an urn with him. The urn made more sense.Still, the thought only made her feel worse. She had never gotten to see what her baby looked like, and this was how she found out the name.“He’s being so unfair,” she whispered, biting her lip to stop herself from crying. She had made a promise not to cry over him anymore.But

    Gabriel stood stiffly in the foyer, looking out of place as he waited for Eric to appear.“Gabriel, it’s the weekend. You know my policy about being disturbed on weekends,” Eric said the moment he descended the stairs. “Don’t you have a personal life? What is it?”“It’s very important, sir. We can’t speak here in the open,” Gabriel replied, clearing his throat.Eric studied him for a moment, noticing the way his eyes kept darting around the room.“Alright. My office,” he said, already turning and leading the way.Once inside, Gabriel shut the door and locked it. Eric raised an eyebrow at the behaviour but said nothing. He simply leaned against the desk with his arms folded.“Speak. What’s so important that it couldn’t wait until Monday?”“It’s about Madam, sir.”Eric’s body stiffened at the mention of her name. “What about Autumn? What happened to her?” His voice carried that familiar sharp edge.“It’s not what happened to her,” Gabriel said carefully. “It’s what ‘will’ happen to her.

    Sophia walked steadily through the dimly lit hallway. The air smelled of mildew and grime, and she felt a wave of repulsion at her surroundings.*I am doing all of this for a reason.* The words repeated in her head like a mantra.She was doing this for the position of Mrs. Kingston — to stand beside Eric as his wife and the mother of his children. For that dream to become real, Autumn had to disappear.She knew Eric was still hung up on her, no matter how much indifference he displayed.She saw it in the way he surrounded Autumn with round-the-clock security. She saw it in the way he reacted whenever something happened to her. She saw it in the way he tensed when he heard she had been spotted with another man. She saw it in the way he still put her first, even when he pretended not to care.The final proof had been the children’s play centre.She had seen the original plans with her own eyes. The site had been intended for a restaurant or a luxury hotel. Eric had scrapped ever

    Sophia was seething.It had only been a few days since Eric ordered the PR team to release that clarification statement — written in the most brutal language possible. She could barely show her face in social circles anymore.Most of her time was spent at the office, burying herself in work. But the moment she left, she drowned her humiliation in alcohol. She turned the situation over and over in her mind, and every time she reached the same conclusion:She didn’t deserve this. None of it was her fault.She had simply loved a man who never loved her back — despite everything she had done to stay by his side.And every path of her rage led back to one name.Autumn Martins.Even though they were divorced, even though Eric was single again, Autumn still haunted her and ruined every chance she had.“Just like *her*,” Sophia spat bitterly, swallowing another mouthful of wine.Her anger hardened into something colder. That was how the plan formed.She spotted the man she had come to see — t

    Autumn arrived at the address Gabriel had sent her. It was a children’s play centre.Her expression soured slightly when she realised she hadn’t brought anything for her son.The moment she stepped onto the premises, she noticed the men dressed in black stationed around the area. It wasn’t hard to tell that someone important was inside.*He really pulled out all the stops to make sure nothing happens to him,* she thought, taking in the tight security.*He’s his heir and only child.* She had almost forgotten that crucial detail. Finn was still a Kingston. That was the main reason Eric had demanded sole custody — he didn’t want his son’s life put at risk.And as much as she hated to admit it, he had been right. He had seen a danger she hadn’t fully understood at the time.She showed her ID to the attendant at the door and stepped inside.The place was massive and brightly designed. Laughter and the sound of children playin

    Autumn woke up feeling fresh and relieved.Her mood was lighter, more relaxed. She couldn’t help smiling to herself as she ate breakfast.“Good morning, ma’am,” Anita greeted her with a warm smile, immediately noticing the change in her expression. She had to do a double take. This was not the same woman she had left the afternoon before.“Good morning, Anita,” Autumn replied, still carrying that same peaceful look.“Had a good sleep, ma’am?” Anita asked, more out of curiosity than courtesy.“Wonderful rest. I haven’t slept like that in days.”“You look like you did.” Anita gave her a longer look. “You look really good this morning, ma’am. Really beautiful.” She added a small wink before turning back to the counter she was wiping.“Oh—thank you,” Autumn said, a little surprised. A faint blush rose on her cheeks at the compliment.She finished her breakfast in silence while scrolling through her emails. Out of curiosity, she switched to her front camera. She did look better. Her hair s

    The " Neon Light" motel she described was even grimmer up close. It was nearly midnight by the time Eric’s tires screeched into the cracked asphalt lot. The place looked like it had seen better days decades ago; now, it was just a graveyard for broken dreams and people who were hiding from life and

    We talked late into the night, the television long since forgotten. The conversation had drifted from the disaster of the wedding to safer, quieter topics—Finn’s new school, the security protocols for the house, the logistics of living under siege. I yawned, a jaw-cracking sound that I couldn't su

    ​Silence overtook the entire garden. It was a heavy, suffocating silence, the kind that usually precedes a natural disaster. The birds seemed to stop singing; even the wind died down, as if nature itself was holding its breath to witness the carnage.​"Rebecca, how dare you say such things at a ti

    The morning sun filtered through the high windows of the estate, casting long, golden rectangles across the breakfast table. It was the first morning since the hospital that the air felt light. "Chloe, this will help you feel better," I said, gently setting down a bowl of special steaming porridge
