My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 076
ANABEL’S POV A soft chime rang through the hall, and the low hum of conversation gradually faded as a host stepped up to the small podium near the front of the room. “Ladies and gentlemen, if I could have your attention. Representing Ambercaz this evening, please welcome Mrs. Anabel Wilson.” My stomach dropped slightly at the sound of my own name echoing through the microphone, a hundred faces turning in near-perfect unison toward where I stood. I smoothed my hands down the front of my gown, grateful I’d chosen something fitted enough that it wouldn’t shift awkwardly with every step, then made my way carefully toward the small stage, my heels clicking softly against the polished floor. I reached the podium, adjusted the microphone slightly, and let my eyes sweep briefly across the room before settling into the words I’d memorized so many times over the past week that they’d finally begun to feel like my own. “Good evening, everyone,” I began, my voice steadier than I actually fel
My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 075
ANABEL’S POV We walked in together, side by side, Dmitri’s presence beside me somehow both comforting and unnerving at the same time. The moment we stepped through the grand entrance, I felt several sets of eyes shift toward us, quick, assessing glances that lingered just a beat too long before darting away. He didn’t say much as we crossed the main floor, just a brief, quiet reminder near my ear to stay close until the introductions were finished. Then a small cluster of men in tailored suits called out to him from across the room, waving him over with the easy familiarity of people who’d known each other for years. He glanced at me once, something almost apologetic flickering across his expression, before excusing himself and making his way toward them, leaving me standing alone beside one of the long, elegantly dressed tables near the edge of the hall. I let out a slow breath, grateful for a brief moment to simply stand still and take everything in without anyone watching my
My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 074
MILES’ POV Grandfather let out a slow, heavy sigh, his eyes dropping to the floor as he crossed the room and pulled out one of the dining chairs, lowering himself into it as though his legs had suddenly given up under the weight of everything he’d just heard. “I have a great-grandson on the way,” he said quietly, almost to himself, as if he were still turning the words over, making sure they were real. “And it’s Zach’s.” “If he were here, he’d be jumping around with joy right now,” I said, hoping the line landed the way I needed it to, one last nail hammered firmly into place. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Grandfather asked, looking up at Cierra. “Because it’s still a lot to take in, sir,” Cierra said, her voice trembling just enough. “Things have been so hard for me. When I first found out, I actually considered ending the pregnancy because I couldn’t bear the thought of this child growing up without a father. That’s the cruelest thing any parent could do to their own child.
My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 073
MILES’ POVI swallowed hard, cursing internally at the fact that Grandfather always seemed to walk in through that second entrance, the one with hinges so quiet you never heard him coming until he was already standing there in the middle of whatever you were doing. Of all the nights for him to slip in unannounced, it had to be this one.But that was hardly the biggest problem sitting in front of me right now.First, there was Cierra, standing in my living room, dressed like she was heading somewhere far more scandalous than a quiet night in, somewhere Grandfather was never supposed to see her in the first place. What exactly was I supposed to tell him? Why my dead brother’s wife happened to be standing in my house, dressed like this, at this hour, looking every bit like she belonged here?And that, as bad as it already was, wasn’t even the real problem.He’d heard it.He’d heard the word pregnancy leave her mouth, clear as day, and that single word carried far more weight than anythin
My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 072
MILES’ POV I took the last bite of the roasted chicken on my plate, chewing slowly before finally setting my utensils down, satisfied. Dinner had been a good call before heading out, something to settle my nerves before the night actually began. I was already dressed, my suit fitting exactly the way I wanted it, and now that the meal was finished, there was nothing left standing between me and the door except time itself, which was quickly running out. I glanced down at my watch, doing the math in my head. The gala would be starting soon, and the last thing I wanted was to walk in late, missing the opening remarks or, worse, the moment they started calling out company names for recognition. Grandfather had made it more than clear how much this night mattered, and I wasn’t about to give him another reason to lecture me about appearances. I wiped my mouth, grabbed my phone off the table, and had just started to rise from my chair when I heard the distinct click of heels on the stairc
My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 071
ANABEL’S POV I raised my brows in surprise, my heart already picking up its pace as I hurried toward the window to confirm whatever Chloe thought she’d just seen. And there they were, unmistakable—three sleek black vehicles parked directly outside our apartment gate, their engines idling, the kind of presence that looked wildly out of place against the modest, slightly rundown building Chloe and I called home. How had he even found this place? And more than that, why had he come here himself? A few hours earlier, he’d sent a short text letting me know he’d be picking me up, and I’d assumed, reasonably, I thought, that he meant from the office, since he hadn’t asked for my address and had no obvious way of knowing where I lived. I’d already been in the middle of getting ready to head there myself, mentally preparing for the awkward car ride ahead, and now here he was, parked right outside my apartment instead. None of it made immediate sense. “I thought you said everything between

My Husband Brought His Mistress Home CHAPTER 002
ANABEL’S POVMy fingers trembled over the laptop as I looked at the screen, still trying to convince myself there had to be another explanation for what I was seeing. Maybe I misunderstood something. Maybe my mind was twisting everything because of what happened last night. But the more I went th

ANABEL’S POVA low groan pulled me out of sleep.At first, I thought I was dreaming. My eyes stayed closed while I turned on the bed, reaching for Miles out of habit.The sheets beside me were cold.I frowned and opened my eyes. The other side of the bed was empty.The digital clock beside me read
