My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father Chapter 128: Riley's Departure
Riley asked for a meeting on a Monday morning, which was unusual.In fifteen years of working together, they had not met in the formal sense of scheduled calendar appointments between the two of them. They talked constantly, in the studio and outside it, in the natural rhythm of a working relationship that had long since become something else as well. Riley did not schedule meetings with Chloe. She appeared at her desk or called her mobile or sent a message that said can we talk and they talked.The calendar invitation, sent through the studio's official scheduling system, subject line reading Meeting - Riley Chen, was different enough that Chloe sat with it for a moment when it appeared.She confirmed it and said nothing, the way she had learned to give people the space to say what they were preparing to say without anticipating it in a way that changed what they said.Riley came in on Monday morning with the composed steadiness of someone who had made a decision and was not uncertai
My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father Chapter 127: Documentary Impact
Sarah's letter arrived on a Wednesday, two years and three months after the documentary's release.By this point the volume of correspondence had settled into a steady rhythm, manageable in a way the initial flood had not been: thirty or forty letters and messages a week, routed through the foundation's administrative team, sorted by the coordinator who had been hired specifically to manage the response to the documentary and Chloe's expanded public profile. Most were read and acknowledged collectively through the foundation's communications. A smaller number were flagged for Chloe's personal attention, based on criteria she and the coordinator had worked out together: letters where the situation was specific and urgent, where a personal response might make a material difference, where the person had asked for something concrete that the foundation could potentially provide.Sarah's letter was flagged.Chloe read it on a Thursday morning, at her desk in the London studio, in the hour
My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father Chapter 126: Health Scare
The call came on a Tuesday afternoon in October, from Lucien's assistant, which was how she knew immediately that something was wrong.Lucien did not have his assistant call Chloe. In ten years of marriage, across every complicated schedule and missed event and late flight, he had always called himself, or texted, the brief functional messages that said what needed saying without elaboration. His assistant calling her number meant he could not call himself, or had asked someone else to because he did not want her to hear something in his voice before he had contained it."He's at St. Thomas's," the assistant said. "He asked me to let you know. He said not to worry, which he specifically asked me to tell you.""What happened?"A pause. "Chest pains. He came out of a board meeting. He's being assessed now."Chloe was in her studio. She was in the middle of a fabric review that had been scheduled for three weeks. She stood up, said to Riley who was sitting across from her, "I have to go,
My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father Chapter 125: Marcus's Talent
The school play was a production of a simplified version of A Midsummer Night's Dream, condensed to forty minutes for an audience of parents who ranged from genuinely interested to politely patient, held in the school hall on a Thursday evening in December with the characteristic atmosphere of these events: slightly too warm, chairs arranged in rows, a programme printed on yellow paper.Marcus had been cast as Bottom.Chloe had not fully processed the implications of this until she was sitting in the third row and her nine-year-old son walked onto the stage.She had seen Marcus perform in the loose sense of the word his entire life: performing at dinner tables, performing for Clara and the nanny assistants, performing for visitors, performing for the neighbours' dog on one memorable occasion, deploying the specific charm he had been developing since he first understood that an audience was a thing you could have. She had found it endearing and occasionally exhausting and had not under
My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father Chapter 124: Artistic Voice
The drawings had been in a folder under Emma's bed for three months before her art teacher saw them.Emma had not hidden them intentionally. They were simply finished, which meant they had moved from the active workspace of her desk to the completed archive of the folder, in the same way she managed all her work: in progress on the desk, finished in the folder, the folder under the bed because that was where it fit. She did not think of the folder as private. She thought of it as done.Her teacher, Ms. Adeyemi, came to the house for a home visit in November, a routine check-in with parents of students in the advanced art programme. Emma had shown her the current work in progress, the botanical illustrations she had been developing as a separate project, and then had brought out the folder because Ms. Adeyemi had asked to see everything from the past year.Chloe was in the kitchen when Emma came to find her, carrying the folder and wearing the expression of someone who had just been to
My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father Chapter 123: Jack's Business
The app had been in development for eight months before Jack told them about it.This was the detail that gave Chloe pause, more than the ambition of the project itself or the sophistication of what he had built: that he had worked on it for eight months in the spaces between school and homework and family dinners, on his laptop in his room, without mentioning it. Not because he was hiding it. Because he wanted to arrive with something finished rather than something theoretical, to present a fact rather than an idea that could be questioned before it existed.She recognised this instinct completely. She had operated the same way for most of her career.He presented it to them on a Saturday morning, a prepared presentation delivered from his laptop at the kitchen table with the composed efficiency of someone who had rehearsed and was not going to be derailed by questions until he had finished. The app was called Bridge. It connected fashion design students with working professionals wi

The applause still echoed in my ears as I stood backstage, trying to process what had just happened. Models were changing out of the garments, chattering excitedly. Hair and makeup artists were packing up. The controlled chaos of post-show breakdown had begun.But I couldn't move. Couldn't fully be

The morning after the gala, I woke to 247 unread emails.Orders from boutiques wanting to stock the collection. Interview requests from fashion publications. Collaboration proposals from textile manufacturers. Meeting requests from other designers. Messages from industry insiders congratulating me

The night before Fashion Week, Cross Luxury Group hosted a gala for designers, models, press, and industry insiders. It was tradition, a final celebration before the chaos of show days began.I didn't want to go. I wanted to be in my studio, obsessively checking every detail one more time. But Luci

I couldn't sleep.It was two in the morning, less than twelve hours until my show, and I was staring at Tessy's ceiling counting all the ways tomorrow could go wrong.The models could trip. The garments could tear. Critics could hate everything. The audience could walk out. I could freeze backstage
