Chapter 2

Author: Mira
I left the room without looking back and headed to the car.

I had just reached for the car door when he caught my wrist from behind.

He wrapped his arms around me and held on. His voice was low. "You think throwing away a ring is enough to leave me?"

I let out a bitter laugh. "You think keeping it would erase what you did?"

He was quiet for a moment, then kissed my earlobe. "Let's go home first. We'll sit down and talk."

I said nothing and let him lift me into the car.

It wasn't because I'd forgiven him. After years of marriage, I knew how he operated. He'd pay any price to get what he wanted.

I wasn't going to gamble my children's lives on his tenderness.

I sat in the stretch Lincoln with the Wayne crest on the door and refused to look at him.

"Your results came back. Your blood sugar is normal again."

Enzo scrolled through his phone without looking up. "I've already spoken to the estate manager. We'll watch your diet more closely so the delivery goes as smoothly as possible."

"Did you keep track of Linda's test results when she was pregnant, too? Did you arrange everything for her ahead of time?"

He leaned in, put an arm around my waist, and rested his chin on my shoulder. His voice was gentle. "Rita, Linda was an accident. Now that she's had the baby, she means nothing more to me. You're different. You..."

I cut him off. "I'm tired. I want to rest."

I closed my eyes.

Enzo sighed and gently guided my head onto his shoulder.

Back at the Wayne estate, I sat on the living room couch, leaving a deliberate gap between us.

"Mr. Wayne, let's talk about dividing the assets."

"What did you call me?" His face darkened.

"Mr. Wayne. Our marriage will be over soon."

"Rita, I've explained this. I won't marry Linda. You'll always be my wife and the Donna of the Wayne family."

I raised an eyebrow. "And what do you plan to do about Rami?"

"Rami is a Wayne by blood. Whatever else happens, I'll acknowledge him."

I gave him a cold smile. "You acknowledge a bastard, and you give him the name I saved for my own child. So what are the two of you going to take from me next? My children?"

  • My Husband Had a Baby with My Foster Sister   Chapter 8

    When my lawyer told me Enzo had refused the divorce for the eleventh time, I was going over the latest financials with Vivian.He sounded exhausted. "His people have been watching me closely all year.""I'm sorry. I'll add another hundred thousand to your fee. In euros this time.""Rita, your ex-husband is obsessed. He asked me to tell you that Wayne children can't grow up without a father."I smiled. "Tell him the children's name is Bryan, not Wayne.""I should warn you, though. He's trying to rebuild the intelligence network you cut off. He'll find you eventually."After the call, I went to check on the twins. They were both fast asleep.They have my hair and almost all my features. Only their light brown eyes came from that man.I touched their soft little hands and smiled.After I left New Jersey, I gave birth to them alone. Later, Vivian and I started a business.It grew quickly. I earned a second master's degree in education so I could be a better mother to them.The twins are he

  • My Husband Had a Baby with My Foster Sister   Chapter 7

    The next day, Enzo returned to the office to find his desk buried under contract termination notices.Rita had personally managed the company's partnerships and major projects. With her gone, the whole place was in disarray.It took Enzo four hours of meetings and a complete overhaul of their plans just to stabilize the company.His assistant knocked and set a communications log on the desk. "Don, while we were investigating yesterday, we found an anonymous account that had been sending the Donna a steady stream of messages and files. You should look at this."He picked it up and turned the pages.By the last page, his hand wouldn't stop shaking.It was an IP address report.It read, "Anonymous user traced to a patient room at Maria Hospital. Patient name: Linda."The assistant handed him a second file. "These stills came from footage the Donna's doctor sent us."He paused. "The Donna never harmed Rami. Linda staged the whole thing."Enzo grabbed his keys and rushed out the door.He ra

    Before Rami's tests began, Enzo texted his assistant to send a doctor to dress the wound on Rita's hand."Don, we're starting your son's tests now. Phones have to be turned off so they don't interfere with the equipment."He read his assistant's confirmation, turned off his phone, and slipped it into his inner pocket.He stayed with Rami through nearly two hours of testing.Afterward, he took the baby from the nurse, looked at his smiling face, and said quietly, "If only Rita were your mother."Linda's expression soured. She reached to take the baby back, but Enzo turned away.He handed Rami to the nurse, then turned to the bodyguards. "Take her back. No more wandering around. The rival families have been making moves lately."Linda nodded and went with them.He turned his phone back on, and his assistant called at once. "Don! Get to the Donna's room! Something's happened!"He ran.The bodyguards shoved the door open. The window was wide open, cold air poured in, and the room was empty

    His gaze moved between Linda and me before settling on Rami's face.Linda sobbed and crawled to him on her knees."Enzo, I brought Rami to see Rita. She flew into a rage. She said he should never have been born, and then she tried to grab him."Enzo didn't look at her.He crouched, took Rami from my arms, and soothed him with practiced ease. "Rita, I want to hear it from you. What happened?"I looked at him, then at Rami. The whole situation felt absurd."Enzo, who do you believe? Your wife of ten years or the lover crying at your feet?"He was silent for two seconds before he said, "Your hand is bleeding."I knew what he was doing. He was changing the subject.It wasn't out of love. He just didn't want to face the answer.Suddenly, I couldn't even be bothered to argue. I turned away and stopped looking at him.He frowned and started to speak, but Linda tugged at his sleeve. "It's time for Rami's tests. The doctor said both parents have to be there."He didn't move. He looked at me and

  • My Husband Had a Baby with My Foster Sister   Chapter 4

    In the middle of the night, pain in my back kept me awake.I gave up on sleep, sat against the headboard, and took out my phone to catch up on emails from my multinational company.My phone chimed, breaking the silence. I frowned and looked at the screen.An anonymous number had sent me a video clip with no image. I played it and heard Enzo's voice."I'll have someone arrange a new identity for you. Stay close to me, and it'll be easier to look after Rami."So that was how he meant to deal with it.He'd give Linda a new identity, keep her close, and make sure I never knew she was there.It was absurd.The pain in my lower back kept building. I managed to call 911 and give them the address before everything went black.I woke in a hospital.The door wasn't fully closed, and I could hear people talking outside."It's strange. Mr. Wayne hasn't left the private maternity room, and his own wife just came out of intensive care without a single visit from him."The same hospital. The same nig

  • My Husband Had a Baby with My Foster Sister   Chapter 3

    I stood to leave, but he stopped me.I looked up at him, my patience gone. "If Mr. Wayne has anything more to say, he can say it to my lawyer."My phone rang.My assistant had sent me Linda's spending records for the past year, with every expense itemized.I'd asked him to get them through the lawyers when I left the hospital.Of more than a hundred entries, ninety-nine listed Enzo as the payer.As I read, I laughed out loud."On Valentine's Day, you told me you were away on business. You were at Linda's prenatal appointment. Two hundred thousand dollars for basic screening."You bought her a rare medication to support her pregnancy at an underground auction. Ten million dollars with fees."And that's before the smaller expenses, all the supplies for a mother and newborn."I looked up at him. "Enzo, can you name one thing you've done for me since I got pregnant?"Enzo's face went blank.I went on. "You paid for a nutritionist, a private nurse, and a nanny. But you never once came with
