The Kingston estate was quiet, settling into the heavy,silence of the late evening. While the rest of the household was occupied—Autumn likely wallowing in her room after her failed escape attempt, and Eric out conducting whatever secret business he had suddenly prioritized—Eleanor seized her opportunity.

She moved through the hallway with the practiced grace of a woman who owned every room she walked into. She had been waiting for this moment, waiting for Eric to be distracted enough to leave

  • My Best Friend’s Uncle… and My Baby Daddy   Chapter 136

    “Surprise!”The loud chorus echoed through the space as a burst of colorful confetti rained down, painting the room in a warm, playful glow. Autumn stood frozen in the doorway, staring in absolute shock at the vibrant scene and the smiling faces greeting her. Her lips parted slightly as she took it all in. The usually sterile conference room had been completely transformed into a chaotic sanctuary of shredded colourful paper and bright balloons.“What is all this?” she asked, stepping cautiously into the room. She distinctly remembered reading an urgent notification sent through the company group chat before she left the estate this morning, fully anticipating another grueling, all-day gauntlet of corporate meetings.“It’s a surprise party, organized specifically for you,” the male colleague standing closest to her said, his smile wide.“A surprise party?” Autumn asked, still entirely puzzled. “What for?”“Well, it’s your birthday, is it not?” Sebastian’s smooth voice rang out from be

    The days went by faster, blurring together in a haze of meetings and data analysis until it was finally the day before her birthday. She had been so occupied by the chaotic events fracturing her life that the date had nearly slipped past her unnoticed.‘This time last year, what did I do?’ Autumn thought, leaning her head back against the office bench and looking out at the sky. She remembered how she had celebrated her twenty-seventh birthday the previous year. It had been just like any other day. She hadn't bought anything for herself; instead, she had personally bought a small cupcake for Fin, celebrating her life through her son's happiness.To her, birthdays had become constant reminders of all the trauma she had been through—milestones she often wished to ignore. For the past couple of years, she had forced herself to view them as nothing more than twenty-four hours on a calendar. But she used to love her birthday. It was a day that celebrated the literal end of autumn and the c

    “Meeting adjourned,” Liam Hayes announced, gathering his leather-bound files from the sleek mahogany table. He made his way out of the conference room, shaking the hands of various executives who offered their congratulations as he passed.While the room emptied, Autumn remained in her seat, meticulously going through the meeting notes she had taken. Ever since she arrived this morning, her schedule had been an endless gauntlet of consecutive meetings.“Ah, man,” Rosaria groaned, stretching her aching muscles. Just like Autumn, she had been stuck in the boardroom for hours. “I swear, I wish I could just find a sugar daddy to take care of all my needs.”The words were spoken loudly, ringing through the room now that the executives had left, leaving only the junior colleagues behind. Autumn winced internally at the comment. It struck a nerve, dragging up a part of her past that she had long since tried to bury and let go of.Rosaria turned her gaze to Autumn, trying to sound genuinely c

    “Yo, Gracie, it’s lunch time,” a coworker said, knocking lightly before sticking his head into her office. “Rosaria said that good-looking lunch container on the counter is yours. Do you think I could have it?” Autumn glanced up from her desk, her mind entirely detached from the office around her. “Sure,” she replied quietly. The coworker offered a quick word of thanks and left, leaving her alone with her thoughts. For the rest of the afternoon, she was trapped in a cycle of overthinking, mentally preparing for what she would do when she went home. When the workday finally ended, she walked out of the department, responding to her colleagues' halfhearted waves with a distant nod. She climbed into the awaiting car, leaning her head against the cool glass of the window as the driver pulled out into traffic. The news of the impending divorce still weighed heavily on her chest. As the city lights blurred past, her thoughts swam with the legal realities of what a separation from Eric Kin

    The morning sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains, blanketing the two figures tangled in the sheets. Instinctively, Eric shifted, placing his arm securely around Autumn’s waist and drawing her flush against his chest. He relished the quiet, peaceful warmth of the moment before trying to slip back to sleep, his grip tightening slightly as if afraid she might slip away the moment he let go.With the movement of his hand, Autumn stirred awake. Her mind was a groggy, distorted mess until her eyes focused on the digital clock on the nightstand. Realizing she had drastically overslept, she bolted upright.“Oh my god, what time is it?” she panicked, throwing the duvet off her body.Eric’s hand shot out, catching her gently by the wrist and pulling her back down. “Autumn, relax. You don’t need to hurry off in such a rush.”She twisted around to glare at him. “Well, excuse me, Mr. CEO,” she grumbled, struggling to free her hand from his grasp. “But some of us can’t afford to oversleep

    Autumn spent the next few days buried in deep-dive research with her team, rounding up their share of the first phase. She had personally dug into Epic Industries, searching for any thread that might connect the dead company to their current project. But all she found was the same surface-level corporate history Eric had already detailed.Despite the team’s growing curiosity, Autumn stood firm. She refused to get them involved in what felt like a personal investigation. She wasn't about to tarnish the department’s name over minor office gossip or old rivalries. She wanted their work to be clean, professional, and final.When the last file was attached and the "Send" button clicked, a collective sigh of relief filled the conference room.“Whoo-hoo!” someone cheered, collapsing back into their chair.“With this, we are officially done with Phase One,” Autumn said, her eyes finally moving from her laptop to the exhausted faces around the table.“Can’t we go out and celebrate?” a junior a

    Sebastian’s POVHe sat on the leather sofa overlooking the London skyline. It was a starless night, the moon’s rays smothered by heavy, glowing clouds. Below, the city buzzed with artificial life, yet it was nothing compared to the absolute darkness residing within the sanctity of this room.“Repor

    The chandeliers gleamed high up in the ceiling, casting a beautiful, intricate spiral of glass against the ornate plaster. Why was I so invested in a ceiling and a bunch of crystals? I didn't know. Maybe it was just the sheer weight of the stress, the kind that makes your neck stiff and your mind l

    Chloe was still acting perfectly normal with me, laughing at the same jokes and leaning into our old rhythms, but I couldn't shake the feeling. It was like a splinter under my skin—tiny and impossible to ignore. I kept watching her, looking for a slip-up, a glance at her phone that lasted too long,

    The sound of designer heels clicking echoed through the dimly lit, marble-clad hallway, the sharp, rhythmic strike against the polished floor being the only thing breaking the heavy, oppressive silence of the hallway. To anyone else, the sound might have been jarring, even threatening, but to Elean
