My Husband's Unwanted Wife Chapter 97
Lily’s POVI had planned my outfit perfectly, knowing all eyes would be on David and I. It was time to announce to the world that we were together and that I was going to be the matron of the Neighely family. The banquet seemed like the best place to do that. However, I had forgotten that Alice was on the guest list. It wasn’t my choice but a last-minute addition because she had won the court case for Neighley Group recently.I didn’t like it but at the same time, it was a great event to make it clear to Alice that she had lost and I had won. I was with David, I was going to marry him, and everything was going to be my way from now on. Her accusations were pointless, silly – she had nothing and I had everything. That thought made me smile but also made me even more excited for the banquet.When we arrived, all eyes were on us. Of course, I noticed Alice immediately and couldn’t help but steer David and I away from her for as long as possible. Our conversations with colleagues and fami

Alice’s POVThe trial had ended and I had nailed my closing argument. I don’t know if it made a difference, but when the verdict came back, it was satisfying. Neighley Group had won their lawsuit and was finally out of scrutiny. The congratulations from my colleagues, and others, were satisfying but I was happy to have preserved grandpa’s legacy. It was the first step – the next was taking care of my baby. Grandpa would have been proud, despite his anger over the divorce. I wasn’t expecting the invitation in the mail though. The Neighley Group’s annual celebration banquet was this weekend. They were celebrating 125 years of business, and it was a bittersweet moment. Grandpa wasn’t here but his legacy lived on and I felt determined to attend. I could see that I was only invited as a formality since I was the lead counsel in the case that allowed them to celebrate yet another year of business.I bought a beautiful black evening dress, something designer but subtle, cool, and regal. I w

Alice’s POVDelilah requested to meet me in person, and I thought after court the next day would be perfect. Adam, who had heard the conversation between us, insisted on coming along.“Just don’t scare her,” I reminded him when he met me at the courthouse after the day’s trial. It took longer than I anticipated and I made sure Delilah knew we were running late.“I won’t scare her, but after your last meetup with a stranger…” Adam surmised, reminding me of the kidnapping.“Yes, it’s best to be cautious,” I agreed. “Come on, she’s meeting us at a café a few blocks away.”“Let’s go,” he insisted, my arm wrapping around his as he led me up the street from the court.“Thank you for coming along,” I said to him when we approached the intersection a few blocks up where the café was across from the park. “I appreciate it. Did you have to work today?”“I took the afternoon off,” he nodded, smiling sweetly. “This was too important. Why are you meeting her again?”“I talked to Terrance, the butl

Alice’s POVThe court case had been going on for over a week now and I was becoming tired and was still incredibly busy. The trial would soon be over though and the conclusion was uncertain. It was approaching the end, and I was both relieved and disappointed. I loved working on trials, I loved doing my job well, and this felt like the end of something big.I would often stay up late working on the paperwork, going over testimony, and reading over my notes. It was a habit – sometimes Arlington would stay up late with me but tonight he was in bed early. He had his own case starting tomorrow and needed some rest. I stayed up later, mulling over the work, reading emails, and considering what my closing arguments would be.Adam emerged from his room that night, smiling at me. He was wearing his usual pajamas without a shirt, having already showered and readied himself for the next day.“Burning the candle late tonight?” he asked, moving to sit next to me on the couch.“Oh yes, the usual,”

David’s POVIt was snowing, the flakes whipped around me, but I didn’t feel cold. It was familiar but strange, standing on the side of an empty street, my mind anticipating the fear. I looked around, trying to understand what was happening but then a figure emerged from the haze of snow and wind. It was her- the girl with the colorful scarf. That was the only color in this white landscape, and I reached out to her, trying to get her attention. I couldn’t see her face, couldn’t speak, the sound of the intense winds the only thing I could hear.I couldn’t move, rooted in place as the scarf around her neck wafted in the heavy breeze. Then, it sprang loose and drifted toward me on the breeze, wrapping itself around me warmly, comfortably. I looked at the familiar blue and red fabric, clutching it tightly. It was familiar, it was soft, and it made the fear fade away. When I looked up for the girl, I was horrified to see she was gone. I tried to call out, tried to see through the constant w

Adam’s POVAfter the opening of the trial, Alice had been busy and occupied with work. She was excited, confident, and entirely in her element. I could see it in her when she ate breakfast and left the apartment every day. Sometimes I’d be working early and I’d miss her, but I’d always catch the news interviews outside the courthouse when I couldn’t be home to see her. Of course, I arranged my schedule at work to accommodate her new, busier, schedule.I wanted her to take it easier, to be careful with her health, so I decided that I would be helpful by planning out her breakfast and dinner. When I was home, I could cook it for her though she loved cooking in her kitchen. It was her favorite hobby that had nothing to do with work. I wanted to encourage her too – it was good to keep occupied and do what you loved. She was in a much more positive mood. All good things for the baby.However, today was my day off. I didn’t want to go to the courthouse to watch the trial itself – I think Al
