My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me What He's Started
Chapter 98: What He's StartedPOV: Odette"I'm not leaving without her," Nikolai said, and the words were still hanging there when he moved.He crossed the distance to our table in two strides, fast enough that Julian hadn't even registered where he was coming from, and his fist connected before anyone in that wrecked restaurant had time to scream a warning.The sound landed low in my stomach. A wet, heavy crack, the kind of sound I felt more than heard. Julian's head snapped sideways, his grip finally tearing loose from my shoulder as he staggered back into the overturned table behind him, silverware scattering loud across the marble.Blood hit the white tablecloth in a sudden bright spray, spreading fast across the fabric in an ugly, blooming stain, soaking into the weave before it even had time to pool.He went down hard, one hand flying up to his face. When he pulled it away his palm came back dark red, blood already streaming fast over his mouth and chin, dripping onto his ruined
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me Through the Glass
Chapter 97: Through the GlassPOV: OdetteDessert had just landed on the table, something dusted in gold leaf neither of us meant to actually eat, when the window gave way.I heard it before I understood it. A sound too big to sort into anything that made sense, glass tearing apart all at once, the whole room flooding white, chandeliers above us swinging hard on their chains, light scattering wild across the ceiling.Someone screamed. Then everyone did, a wall of noise closing in while I sat frozen, caught in that half-second gap between hearing something terrible and actually knowing what it meant.A car had come through the front of the restaurant. Black, crumpled, smoke already curling up from under a hood crushed flat against an overturned table. The tires kept spinning against nothing, a useless, grinding sound under everything else. Plaster drifted down slow from a crack in the ceiling, pale against the gold light, settling soft on the shoulders of a man still frozen mid-bite tw
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me He Doesn't Call Ahead
Chapter 96: He Doesn't Call AheadPOV: NikolaiCai had gone to bed an hour ago, and I'd stayed in the study afterward, telling myself I had a contract to finish reading, the pages sitting open in front of me without a single word of it registering.My phone buzzed around ten, one of my security men forwarding a link without comment, the way they did when something needed my eyes faster than a summary could manage.I opened it and the whole room went very quiet around me.Three photographs. Odette at a table, candlelight catching her face, Julian Thorne's hand wrapped around hers like something he'd already paid for. The caption underneath gushing about fate and second chances, some reporter's breathless invention sitting beside a photo of a woman I'd watched flinch at the memory of a man's fingers around her wrist two weeks ago.I zoomed in without meaning to.Her smile didn't reach her eyes. I knew that smile. I'd watched her use a version of it on Clara in a hallway weeks ago, perfo
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me Where He's Headed
Chapter 95: Where He's HeadedPOV: ClaraThe photos hit my feed around nine, three of them pushed to the top of every gossip account I followed, and I propped my phone against my pillow and scrolled through them with something close to satisfaction curling warm in my chest.Odette Sinclair, smiling at some glittering restaurant table, Julian Thorne's hand wrapped around hers, the caption underneath already gushing about fate and second chances. I zoomed in on her face without meaning to, studying it the way I used to study my own in a mirror before a party, checking for the cracks underneath the makeup.There were cracks. I could see them even through a stranger's phone camera, something hollow sitting behind her eyes that no amount of good lighting could fully disguise.Good, I thought, and meant it, the word landing sharp and clean in my chest. Let her feel it. Let her finally understand what it's like.I screenshotted one of the photos and sent it to a friend with three laughing em
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me What the Window Showed Back
Chapter 94: What the Window Showed Back POV: Odette The restaurant Julian chose sat on the top floor of a building downtown, all floor-to-ceiling glass and low gold lighting, the kind of place where the menu doesn't list prices because asking would be the actual insult. A photographer loitered near the entrance when we arrived, too casually positioned to be anything but planted there, and Julian's hand found mine the second we stepped out of the car, fingers lacing through mine tight enough that I felt my knuckles grind. "Smile," he murmured, close to my ear, before we'd even crossed the sidewalk. I smiled. It felt like something separate from my face, stretched on from the outside. The maitre d' greeted him by name, warm, familiar, the particular deference reserved for men who tip in numbers most people don't make in a month. He led us to a corner table by the window, the city spread out gold and glittering below, and Julian pulled my chair out himself, a courtesy performed en
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me Mandatory
Chapter 93: Mandatory POV: Odette My phone had gone quiet in a way that scared me more than noise ever could. No texts from Nikolai. No missed calls I hadn't caught in time from Cai. I kept picking the phone up anyway, thumb hovering over his name in my contacts, and putting it back down before I did something that would cost him more than it cost me. I didn't even know anymore what counted as safe. I just knew my mother's voice saying I will handle it accordingly had followed me into every room since, low and constant, like a second heartbeat. I lay in bed that first night staring at the ceiling, replaying his hand on my jaw, the way he'd stepped back instead of arguing, and hated how badly I still wanted to hear his voice over how afraid I was of what it would cost him if I tried. Maya called twice. I watched both calls ring out, my thumb hovering uselessly over the green button, because I knew the second I heard her say ...hey, how are you.. my voice would crack straight down
