TILDA

My son, Denzel, had Huntington’s Disease—a cruel, relentless condition that I had fought tooth and nail to manage for him. And now, here was Oscar, displaying symptoms so eerily familiar that it sent a chill through me.

He had been admitted to the hospital recently, though he had brushed it off as mere exhaustion. But I knew better. I had seen these signs before. The subtle loss of coordination, the brief lapses in control—things others might overlook, but I couldn’t.

Yet, despite what I suspected, I couldn’t say anything. Not without exposing a truth I had kept buried for years. My children—my quadruplets—were my greatest secret. A secret I had protected at all costs, for their safety and for mine.

Revealing what I knew now would only invite questions I wasn’t prepared to answer. Still, ignoring what I saw felt impossible.

Just as I was lost in thought, a voice pulled me back.

“Hello, Tilda,” a coworker greeted with a knowing smirk.

I turned, recognizing the speaker. “Lovett,”

    KRISTIE“I told you it wouldn’t take long. Oscar knows better than to mess with me,” Lady Sheila bragged, her voice loud as the last of our things were being moved in.“You can leave those items right there,” Mom instructed the movers carrying in the vanity. “I’ll take them to the right place later.”Lady Sheila strode over. “Put them down gently, will you? Don’t even think about stepping into their private room,” she warned.“We’ll leave it right here,” one of the men replied.“Good. Now go bring in the rest,” Lady Sheila spoke condescendingly at him. “Don’t just stand there like statues,” she barked.“Where is James?” Mom asked, glancing around until she spotted him descending the stairs. “James, go direct the men. Show them where to place the rest of the things.”Without a word, James gave a small nod and followed the movers.“You know,” Lady Sheila said, turning to Mom with a grin, “I’ve always told Kristie to be patient. Soon, Oscar will have no choice but to submit to me.”Mom s

  • OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW   CHAPTER 101 – IT WAS HAPPENING TOO FAST

    THIRD PERSON“Can you please pack an extra lunch for me, Miranda?” Diamond asked sweetly.“Why would you need extra lunch, Diamond?” Miranda replied, raising an eyebrow. “This is already more than enough. You barely finish your food as it is.”“Maybe just a little more today,” Diamond pleaded.“Not unless you have a good reason for this unusual request,” Miranda said firmly as she closed the lids of the food flasks.Tilda walked in, having overheard the kitchen conversation. She was curious as to why Diamond would ask for extra lunch.“I want to share with Shantel,” Diamond explained quietly.“Shantel?” Tilda repeated, surprised.Diamond turned toward her mother. “Mommy, please ask Miranda to give me more food today,” she begged.“Why do you want to share your lunch with Shantel?” Tilda asked, concerned.The request sounded oddly familiar. It reminded Tilda of her childhood with Kristie—always giving, always sacrificing, only to end up hurt. She couldn’t shake the worry that Diamond m

  • OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW   CHAPTER 100 – A TEXT FROM OSCAR GRAY

    OSCAR GRAYI glanced around, but the room was unusually quiet. The lights were off, and even her desktop had been shut down. Had she closed and left already? I asked myself. But why would she leave so early? Surely, there were still tasks left to be completed.It was only when I pulled out my phone to call her that I noticed the time—it was past 7 p.m. I hadn’t even realized it had gotten this late.I sighed and quickly dialed Steven.“Hello, boss,” his voice came through.“I need that now, Steven,” I said, then hung up.Definitely, this will get her to forgive me.With trembling fingers, I sent her a text.TILDAI had just finished eating dinner when my phone beeped.“Mommy, it’s your phone,” Dixon said, bringing it to me.“Thanks, Dixon,” I replied as I collected the phone from him.I opened the message. It was from Oscar. It read: Can you come to my office first thing in the morning?“Who is it?” Miranda, who had been observing me the whole time, asked.I sighed. “Mr. Gray.”Immedi

    TILDAI stopped by the door the moment I saw Lady Sheila seated in Oscar’s office.“You can come in, Tilda,” Oscar called out, not even glancing in my direction.“Actually, sir…” I began nervously.Lady Sheila cut in before I could finish. “Is she still here, Oscar? You should have fired her already.”Oscar flicked a quick glance at me, fuddling with the pen in his hand.“I can come back later, Mr. Gray,” I said, trying to excuse myself.“No,” his voice cut in, firm and clear. “You should leave.”I paused, confused. “I... I should?” I stuttered.He nodded, eyes returning to his desk. “Aunt Sheila, you can go now. I must focus on work.”Lady Sheila scoffed, rising slowly from her seat. “Hmph… You can’t possibly have her here after what you found out.”When Oscar didn’t respond, she slammed her fist on the desk. “Oscar! I am speaking to you.”To my surprise, Oscar stood and calmly took her by the arm.“I won’t appreciate any more interference in my work, Aunt,” he said as he led her tow

  • OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW   CHAPTER 98 – SHE IS ONLY USING THE KIDS

    THIRD PERSONLady Sheila had barged in so suddenly that neither Tilda nor anyone else had time to react.The kids, who had been taken by surprise, looked helpless in her grip. Tilda had been about to announce them as hers before Sheila interrupted. Now, they weren’t sure whether to react or wait for Tilda to.When Tilda could finally muster her voice, she mumbled, “Aunt Sheila.”She wanted to give the news, but Lady Sheila’s sudden arrival had disrupted her plan. She was utterly confused and didn’t know what to do.Lady Sheila grunted. “You cannot use them to get to Oscar. I can see right through your scheme.”Oscar stood up. “You shouldn’t interrupt us that way, Aunt.”Lady Sheila retorted, “You are all blinded by her, but I am not. She’s only using the kids to get to you. I stopped her the first time—now she’s doing it again. Who knows what she’s up to?” She turned to Tilda. “These are kids, Tilda. It is shameful to use them for your hideous motive.”“That is not true,” Tilda counte

    TILDAWith uncertainty, I leaned on the door as I watched Miranda get the kids dressed to leave for Monsieur King’s estate.It was today—I would have to reveal everything to Oscar today, even the fact that I wasn’t sure of the kids’ real father. He might think low of me or even push me away, but I wasn’t going to continue living these lies anymore.“Won’t you be there, Mommy? You aren’t dressed yet?” Dixon asked.“Oh,” Dylan stared at his phone. “Mr. Gray says he will come to pick us,” he announced.“No!” My heart skipped a beat. He couldn’t find out just yet. I already had my plans on how to go about it.“Are you changing your mind now, Mommy? We can cancel,” Dixon said.“Yes, Tilda, if you don’t want this yet, we would understand,” Miranda agreed.“No, I mean to... to tell Mr. Gray not to come over,” I stuttered.Their curious eyes turned to me, none saying anything.“Um, just tell him you’re already out and will find your way to the estate,” I explained. “He shouldn’t know you live
