I walk down the aisle on Leo's arm. My son. My brave, wonderful son who insisted on this honor.

"I want to give you away," he said when we discussed who would walk me down the aisle. "You're my mom. I should be the one."

Blair had offered. But Leo was right. This felt perfect.

The garden chapel is exactly as I imagined. Thirty people. Small. Intimate. Everyone who truly matters.

Riley and Margaret on one side. Tessy with her twins. Catherine. Clara. Sophie, Ana, and Margot from Paris. Blair and

  • My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father   Chapter 108: Renewed Vows

    Chloe thought they were going to Greece for a holiday.This was not unreasonable. They had been to the same private beach estate twice before, once for their honeymoon and once for a summer week when the twins were two and Marcus was not yet born and everyone had agreed that what the family needed was ten days with no schedule and direct access to warm water. She had good memories of the place. When Lucien suggested it for their fifth anniversary, she had agreed without suspicion and spent a pleasant hour researching whether the fish restaurant they had loved was still operating.It was only when the car turned up the coastal road toward the estate and she saw the flower arrangements lining the path to the beach that she understood something different was happening.She turned to look at Lucien.He was watching her with the particular expression he had when he was pleased with himself but attempting to appear neutral."Lucien.""We're almost there.""What did you do?""I'll explain wh

  • My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father   Chapter 107: The Twins' Personalities

    Emma discovered fabric the way some children discover music: suddenly, completely, and with an intensity that made it clear this was not a passing interest.It started with a remnant bin.Chloe kept a large basket in the corner of her home studio where she put fabric off-cuts too small for professional use but too interesting to throw away. Scraps of Italian wool, ends of organic cotton in unusual colours, pieces of experimental weave that hadn't made it into a collection. She had always kept a bin like this, going back to her earliest days designing, the habit of someone who found it difficult to waste good material.Emma, at six, discovered the basket on a rainy Saturday afternoon when she had exhausted every other option in the house and wandered into the studio with the particular aimless energy of a bored child. Chloe heard nothing for twenty minutes, which was long enough to be suspicious, and went to investigate.Emma was sitting on the floor surrounded by fabric scraps, arrang

  • My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father   Chapter 106: Leo's Teen Years

    The first piece Leo sold was a hoodie.He had designed it himself, working at the small drafting table in his bedroom that had started as a place for homework and gradually accumulated fabric swatches, sketch pads, and a secondhand sewing machine he had researched for three weeks before asking for it as a birthday present. The hoodie was oversized, structured at the shoulders in a way that was unusual for the style, made from deadstock cotton he had sourced himself after watching Chloe negotiate with suppliers often enough to understand that deadstock was both cheaper and more sustainable than new fabric.He sold it to a boy in his class for forty pounds. The boy wore it the following Monday, and by Friday, Leo had three more orders.He came to Chloe with the orders written in a notebook, his handwriting still the large, slightly uneven script of someone who had not fully made peace with the size of his own hands. He laid the notebook on the kitchen table and explained what had happen

  • My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father   Chapter 105: Teaching

    The idea started with a CV that arrived in the wrong inbox.Chloe's assistant flagged it as misdirected, a general application with no specific role attached, sent to the fashion house's main contact address rather than the recruitment portal. Standard procedure was to send an automated response directing applicants to the proper channel. The assistant mentioned it only because something in the covering letter had made her pause before deleting it.Chloe read the letter that evening.The applicant's name was Diana Osei. She was forty-one years old. She had trained as a textile designer in her mid-twenties, worked for three years at a mid-sized fashion house in Birmingham, and then left the industry entirely when her husband was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's and required full-time care. She had spent eight years as his carer. He had died fourteen months ago. She was rebuilding from the point where her career had stopped, with a portfolio that was eight years out of date and sk

  • My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father   Chapter 104: Travis's Attempt

    It came in the regular post, which was somehow the detail that struck Chloe most.Not through lawyers. Not through a publicist or a mediator or any of the official channels that had handled every previous communication between them. Just a white envelope with her London business address written in handwriting she recognized immediately despite not having seen it in years, forwarded from the office to the house because her assistant flagged personal correspondence separately.She was at the kitchen table when she opened it, Marcus napping upstairs, the twins at school, Leo at a friend's house for the afternoon. The house was quiet in the particular way it only got during the narrow window between school pickup and the evening's activity, and she had been using the quiet to review fabric samples for a spring delivery, which was why the letter sat unopened for twenty minutes before she got to it.She saw the return address first. A flat in Croydon. Then the handwriting on the first line,

  • My Ex's Boss is My Baby's Father   Chapter 103: Blair's Circle

    The tenth boutique opened in Edinburgh on a grey October morning, and Blair called Chloe from the empty shop floor two hours before the doors opened, walking slowly through the space the way she always did before a launch, checking angles and light and the way the garments sat on their rails."Tell me it looks good," Blair said.Chloe could hear her footsteps on the hardwood. "I can't see it, Blair.""Tell me anyway.""It looks good."A pause. Then Blair laughed, and it was the laugh Chloe had grown up with, the real one, the one that had nothing performed in it. "The Edinburgh light is different. Softer than I expected. The cream pieces look better here than they did in the Paris location.""I told you Edinburgh was right for the cream pieces.""You did. I should have listened to you three locations ago." A door opened somewhere in the background, voices entering. "My team is arriving. I should go." She did not hang up immediately. "Chloe.""I know," Chloe said. "Congratulations. Ten

    Milan Fashion Week becomes a blur of shows, meetings, and stolen moments with Lucien.We have breakfast together the next morning. A quiet café away from the fashion crowd.

    I don't sleep that night. I lie in the hotel bed, replaying the conversation with Lucien, staring at the check, feeling the baby kick.By morning, I'm exhausted and no closer to an answer.My flight to London is at six PM. I have one day left in New York.I'm packing when there's a knock at my door
