~~Claire~~

For a moment, it felt as if the whole world had disappeared.

Caleb Reed was standing right in front of me.

Alive. Breathing. Staring into my eyes with those green eyes I'd once fallen so deeply in love with.

And that car that had repeatedly shown iys headlamp when John was kissing my hand…so he was the one. He had been watching me like a stalker. I didn't know how long.

He wore a white shirt and dark jeans, his hair neatly styled. His face looked almost the same, though his jaw w

  • My Bestfriend's Brother Secret Baby   chapter 28:Goodbye, again

    ~~Claire~~Caleb's expression changed.He looked away first, his shoulders drawing inward as if my words had physically weighed them down. His lips parted, but for several seconds, nothing came out.When he finally looked back at me, there was something raw in his eyes.Guilt.I saw it clearly.But guilt wouldn't change anything. If it were that easy, maybe he wouldn't have needed to come looking for me in the first place.“I don't know,” he finally admitted, letting out a quiet breath.“What?” I frowned. “I don't know isn't an answer.”“That’s my answer, Claire.” His voice had gone softer. “I know I ruined your trust. I know I gave you every reason not to believe me. But believe me this time.”He swallowed, his eyes staying on mine. Then, he moved closer, his hand lifting as though he wanted to take mine.I immediately looked at it and that was enough to make him stop. His hand fell back to his side.“So you're going to promise me that if I…” The word kiss caught somewhere behind my

  • My Bestfriend's Brother Secret Baby   chapter 27:Kiss me and I'll leave.

    ~~Claire~~My eyes stayed on her pleading face, and the longer I looked at her, the harder it became to say no.Her fingers were still twisted in my shirt, her little face tilted up at me with so much hope that my resolve started slipping. For one selfish second, I wanted to give in.But I couldn't.“Mira, sweetheart…” I brushed my thumb gently over her cheek. Her skin was warm beneath my touch. “Daddy has his own home to go to.”And by home, I meant Bella and their son.They were probably already wondering where he was. I couldn't let this go any further. The longer Caleb stayed around Mira, the harder it would become to pull him away. Not just from Mira. From me.“But I want him here.” Her bottom lip pushed forward as her grip on my shirt tightened. “I can share my room with Daddy.”My chest tightened.I swallowed and opened my mouth, searching for the right words, but before I could say anything, Caleb's hand settled on my shoulder.I stiffened.He leaned closer, his voice barely a

  • My Bestfriend's Brother Secret Baby   chapter 26:Let daddy stay, mommy

    ~~Claire~~ I tilted my head, my brows furrowing as I tried to make sense of what he was saying. Was he pretending or something? Because none of this made sense. “Wait.” I let out a shaky chuckle. “You didn't get me any gift? Flowers?” “No.” He shook his head, a crease forming between his brows. “I swear I didn't. Did someone send you flowers?” I looked away, my thoughts racing. The note had John's name on it. I'd seen it with my own eyes. So how could he stand here and tell me he had nothing to do with it? I stared at him without really seeing him. His voice became a distant murmur as I tried to piece everything together. “Claire.” I barely reacted until he gave my shoulder a gentle nudge. I blinked and turned to him. “You were saying?” He studied my face for a moment before repeating his question. “Did you receive any gifts this morning?” “No.” I shook my head, forcing a smile that felt strange on my lips. “I mean, yes. Someone sent me something, but I didn't a

  • My Bestfriend's Brother Secret Baby   chapter 25:A gift

    ~~Claire~~ I slipped out of bed and grabbed my robe, tying it around my waist as I made my way to the door. The house was still quiet, and the early morning light was creeping through the curtains. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes before peeping through the peephole. A man stood outside, holding a bouquet of flowers in one hand and a small box in the other. He looked like a delivery man. My brows furrowed as I pulled away from the door. Who could possibly be sending me flowers this early in the morning? I couldn't think of anyone, but rather than stand there guessing, I grabbed the handle and opened the door. The cool morning breeze brushed against my face. “Good morning, ma'am.” The man greeted me with a polite smile. “Hi.” I pushed my hair back and glanced at the flowers in his hands before looking up at him again. Roses. My absolute favorite. “Are you Miss Claire?” he asked. “Yeah.” I nodded, folding my arms across my chest. “How may I help you?” “No need, ma'am.” He held

  • My Bestfriend's Brother Secret Baby   chapter 24:Still thinking about him

    ~~Claire~~He didn't move. For a moment, we stood there in silence, the evening breeze brushing against my skin. But it wasn't going to change anything. It was my turn to make a choice.I lowered my gaze to the black card lying at his feet, keeping my face blank even though a part of me wanted to look at him one last time. Then without hesitation, I turned, opened the front door, and grabbed my handbag.He didn't stop me this time. He didn't reach for my hand or try to get me to listen to him. Maybe my words had finally hit a nerve. Or maybe he was beginning to understand that I wasn't the same woman he had left behind six years ago.After taking my handbag, I moved to the backdoor and opened it carefully, not wanting to wake Mira. She stirred a little when I slipped my arms beneath her, but she only snuggled closer against me, her small hand resting against my shoulder. I held her a little tighter as I straightened up, breathing in the familiar scent of her hair.Then I turned towa

  • My Bestfriend's Brother Secret Baby   Chapter 23:Returning his black card

    ~~Claire~~ I stood there, watching as he walked around the car toward me. My brows were drawn together, and my eyes still burned with the tears I was fighting to hold back. I blinked several times, refusing to let them fall in front of him. When he finally stopped in front of me, he reached for my hand and held it, his piercing gaze fixed on my face. “Do you want me to beg you, Claire?” His voice rose against the quiet night. “Do you want me to kneel and beg you? Fine. I will. But please, I'll lose my mind if I spend one more night knowing the fact that you hate me…without knowing that Mira has her father there for her.” I stared at him, hardly believing what I was hearing. “Are you nuts, Caleb?” I asked, my blood boiling. “How long are we going to keep doing this? What do I have to do to make you leave us alone?” I tried to pull my hand away, but his fingers tightened around mine. “No.” He shook his head firmly. “You're mine. Mira is my daughter, and I won't give up unti
