My thumbs hovered over the message from Susan.

Hi Haley! Jordan and I are going to the children’s park tomorrow morning—would you and Lily like to join us?

I stared at it, reading it over and over again. It wasn’t a threatening message. It wasn’t unkind. In fact, it was kind. Too kind.

But still… a familiar flutter twisted in my stomach. Seeing Susan—now with Sebastian—in a casual setting felt strange. Not painful, not sharp. Just heavy. Like walking into a place you once lived and realizing everything’s been rearranged. The walls are the same. But the warmth? The scent? The little signs of you? Gone.

I swallowed hard.

Was this me clinging to the past? Or was it something else—some residue of how everything changed so fast, and I never really got to catch my breath?

I sighed and looked up. Lily sat across from me, finishing her cereal and humming quietly, swinging her legs under the chai

  • My Ex-husband And Son Wants Me Back After Divorce   Chapter 94 The Engagement Party

    I had never been to my ex-husband’s engagement party before.Well, I never thought I’d ever have to go to one.But there I was, standing beside Logan, holding his arm gently, dressed in a soft ivory gown that hugged my waist and flowed down to the floor. My hair was curled and pinned up with little pearl pins. Simple, elegant. Like I wanted to disappear into the background but still be polite.Logan wore a tailored black suit with a grey shirt underneath. No tie. He looked calm, but his hand never left the small of my back.“You okay?” he whispered near my ear as we stepped inside.“I’m fine,” I said, offering a small smile. “Just… strange being here.”He nodded. “We’ll stay for a bit, then leave. Just let me know.”The venue was a grand hotel ballroom. Soft yellow lights. Classical music playing. Servers moving around with drinks. I spotted Sebastian almos

    The wind had turned cold as I stood up from the swing. The park was quiet now. Jordan had already left with Sebastian. I thought that was the end of it.But it wasn’t.I heard footsteps behind me and turned.Sebastian.Again.“What now?” I asked, crossing my arms.He looked tense. Out of breath. His eyes full of something I didn’t want to see.“I didn’t mean to leave like that,” he said.“Jordan already went with you. You should go with him.”He didn’t answer.Before I could say another word, he leaned in and kissed me.It wasn’t soft.It wasn’t kind.It was desperate.And completely unwanted.For a second, my body froze in shock.Then, anger surged through me. I shoved him back, hard. My palm connected with his cheek in a loud slap that echoed in the empty park.“What the hell is wrong wi

    After dinner, I tucked Lily into bed. She snuggled her teddy bear, yawning sleepily. “Aunt Haley?”“Yes, sweetheart?”She bit her lip. “If Jordan becomes my… something, can I still call him my friend?”I blinked, surprised. “What do you mean, something?”She looked at Logan nervously, then back at me. “You’re Jordan’s mommy… and you live with us now and also about my Mom getting married to Jordan's Dad..." She looked confused.I smiled softly and stroked her hair. “Of course, baby. Even if Susan marries Sebastian, that won’t change your friendship with Jordan. You’ll always be free to be friends.”"So does that mean Jordan is my brother now? Like… real family?”I nodded gently. “If Logan and I get married someday, it will definitely change your relationship. I am sorry, I know this is too complicated for you.”Lily’s face scrunched up, "It's fine as long as you are happy with my daddy."Her words made me smile and I kissed her forehead, "Goodnight." I whispered and Lily closed her eye

    I stood beside Logan at the entrance, my fingers resting lightly in his hand.It wasn’t until I spotted Sebastian across the hall that I hesitated.He was standing near the reception, speaking with one of Logan’s assistants. The moment his eyes met ours, they dipped down to our intertwined hands. He paused—just for a second—and then looked away like he hadn’t noticed anything at all.I turned to Logan quickly, lowering my voice. “Sebastian?”Logan gave a small nod, his expression unreadable. “He wants to collaborate.”“Collaborate?” I blinked. “Since when?”“Just came up this morning,” Logan said calmly. “I’ll explain later.”I narrowed my eyes slightly, unconvinced. “You’re just going to pretend it’s normal that he shows up out of nowhere wanting to work with you?”“Business is business,” Logan replied. “His company’s in trouble. He needs someone with stable footing. That someone just happens to be me.”I bit my lip. “Still feels weird.”Logan gently squeezed my hand. “Don’t overthin

    Logan held out his hand as we walked into the company.“Hold my hand,” he said softly.I looked at him and shook my head with a small smile. “We’re at work.”“So?” he asked, raising an eyebrow.“I don’t want people staring. We’re already being watched,” I whispered.He sighed but nodded, slipping his hand back into his pocket. “Alright. But I’ll hold it later.”I gave him a look. “You always say that.”He smirked. “And I always do.”We walked into the building together. People greeted Logan as we passed. Some smiled at me. Others just stared too long.I wasn’t used to this.Logan’s office was at the very top. It was big, but what I liked most was the little cubicle he had set up for me beside it. Not too fancy, but private. Cozy. Just for me.I placed my bag on the small table, turned on the tablet, and started sketching.Then, the door opened.A woman walked in.She had shoulder-length black hair and wore a sharp white blouse tucked into a pencil skirt. Her heels clicked softly again

    “Lily!” I gasped, laughing as I watched her proudly smear more tomato sauce onto Logan’s grey loungewear.Her little spoon moved like a paintbrush, the bright red sauce streaking across his chest like some kind of edible war paint.“Look, Daddy! You're pizza now!”Logan’s eye twitched. “Pizza,” he repeated slowly, staring down at the mess spreading across his shirt. “Great. Just what I wanted on a Monday morning.”“I can be the cheese,” Lily added proudly, grabbing more sauce.“Okay, okay,” I said quickly, reaching to stop her. “Lily, sweetheart, maybe we—”Before I could finish, a blob of cold tomato sauce landed on the side of my head.I froze.The room went quiet.Lily stared.I turned my head slowly, and there stood Logan with the biggest smirk on his face and an empty spoon in his hand.“Oh, you didn’t just—” I gasped.“I did,” he said smugly, backing away slightly. “And I regret nothing.”“You’re dead,” I warned.“Daddy’s gonna get it!” Lily cheered.I lunged at him.Logan darte
