My Best Friend’s Uncle… and My Baby Daddy Chapter 175
“Of course I know,” Sebastian answered, his voice dropping its friendly cadence and replacing it with neutrality that suddenly made the hairs on the back of Autumn's neck stand up. “I read through your assessment. Anyways, let's discuss your rates,” he said, casually waving his hand to dismiss her question, trying to divert the topic.“No, we won't.” Autumn’s hand tightened around the strap of her purse under the table, her knuckles turning a stark white. “I never wrote down the particular number of accounts on any of my assessments. Even the team doesn’t know that figure.”A thought bloomed in her mind, spreading through her chest like wildfire. ‘Was **he…’’“Autumn, you must be stressed.” He reached across the table, his fingers wrapping around her caress. “Pregnancy brain is a real thing,” he tried to coax her, his eyes softening into a sympathetic look that now felt hollow. His voice was a gentle murmur, meant to soothe a hysterical woman, but his grip remained unyielding. “You’ve

In a quiet café in London, Autumn sat alone in a secluded corner booth, her hands folded tightly on her lap. Underneath the table, out of sight from the casual patrons around her, her hands shook with a noticeable tremor. Her heart was pounding so hard against her ribs that she was terrified that other people might hear it.‘I should have just fled from him. I should have packed my bags and run the second I left the hospital. I am not a detective,’ she thought bitterly, a cold sweat breaking out across the back of her neck. ‘For god sake, I am not Nancy Drew,’ she added,a knot twisting in her stomach. The weight of self-doubt over her reckless decision was already creeping deep into her mind—doubt that she should have ever arranged this meeting in the first place. She was a pregnant woman trying to play a game with a potential murderer. ‘Maybe if I leave right now, before he walks through that door, I can just make up a medical excuse—’ She was already shifting her weight, sliding acr

She stared blankly at the screen after hanging up the call, her heart aching from hearing the panic and fury in his voice. ‘It’s for the best,’ she thought to herself, steeling her resolve before pocketing her phone.“Mrs. Autumn Martins?”The sound of her name brought her snapping back from her thoughts. Answering the nurse’s call, she stood up and was ushered down a hallway. She noticed the nurse shooting her a sympathetic glance before opening the door to the office, which only made her chest tighten further.“Good day, Doctor,” Autumn greeted as she took her seat across from the desk.“Good day, Mrs. Martins,” the physician replied. He looked up from her file with a solemn expression.Autumn frowned, a cold dread settling into the pit of her stomach. She already had a terrible feeling about this. “Doctor, is something wrong?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly. “Is it the baby?”“Ma'am, I need you to walk me through your exact diet,” he requested gently, his refusal to answer
My Best Friend’s Uncle… and My Baby Daddy Chapter 172
In New York City.From the exact moment Eric had touched down in New York, he had been pulled into one relentless meeting after another with no time to rest. The only time he even had a spare moment to catch his breath or think was late at night right before going to bed.Securing this specific phase of the Omni Core contract was his top priority, but he still couldn't help the heavy knot that tied in his stomach the moment he was left alone. He had been in New York for two full days now, and not once had Autumn called to check up on him or ask how he was doing. His anxiety was over the roof as he stared blankly at the presentation slides in the boardroom, his right leg rhythmically bouncing up and down underneath the table. It was a tall tale of his stress.He, Eric Kingston, was nervous. He had never been nervous before in his entire life; nothing in the business world had ever possessed the power to make him feel this way. But the agonizing thought of Autumn’s silence stirred somet

Autumn arose just as the sun was rising, exactly as she had the previous day. She stood by the window overlooking the London skyline, taking in the vast beauty of the city but the view was the furthest thing from her mind.She had slept very little. The chaotic events that had transpired over the last forty-eight hours had made her, and even the baby in her belly uneasy.“I need to get back to it,” she whispered to herself, turning away from the glass and moving back into the living room.She kept one hand placed safely over her baby bump, anchoring herself as she sat down on the couch. Sprawled out across the coffee table was a wide range of papers on the issues she had on hand. One section was dedicated entirely to Miranda, covering everything she currently knew about her, alongside notes on what she remembered from reading Miranda’s letters back in Edinburgh. ‘The beginning of all my problems,’ she thought bitterly.The second section focused on materials for the Ministry’s competi

Hunched over on the edge of the bed, her eyes were already wide awake long before the crack of dawn. She kept replaying the past six years on a continuous loop in her mind. ‘Maybe I should have just returned back home to my family. Maybe it would have been so much better if I had just gotten another job somewhere else.’ All those painful thoughts and more were the only things she could focus on. She knew she couldn’t take back the actions she had already taken in her past, but she could certainly make up for them in the future.“Enough wallowing on his infidelity. I need to focus on uncovering the truth about Miranda and finding more concrete evidence of Sebastian's attempts on my life,” she whispered-yelled to herself, slapping her cheeks lightly to break the trance of her grief.“With Eric gone across the Atlantic, I need to move quickly,” she said, getting up from the bed and moving to grab her phone.Now that her emotions were back in check, she was far more rational, more clear

Eric’s POVWe sat in her modest living room and talked about a few things. As the hours went by, I got to know so much more about Autumn’s childhood than I ever expected. If the stellar grades I had seen in the files were not enough, the physical proof of her achievements sparked even more respect

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,

I had spent the last few days trying to settle into the new house in Edinburgh. On the outside, everything looked perfect. The stone walls were strong, the air was fresh, and we were far away from the chaos of London. But inside the house, a different kind of war was starting.I had tried to get to
