One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 283
Evelyn's POV“Evelyn.”The way he said my name instantly made my throat tighten.Not because it was dramatic.Not because it was rehearsed.Because it sounded real.Completely, painfully real.“For a very long time,” Julian began, his gaze never leaving mine, “I was convinced I was the unluckiest man on earth, because I fell in love with the girl who saved my life, and somehow that girl not only mistook me for somebody else, but managed to forget I existed entirely.”The crowd burst into laughter.I immediately covered my face.“Oh my God.”Somewhere behind me, Dean nearly choked.Frank looked delighted.Maddie looked as though this was the greatest day of her life.Julian, meanwhile, seemed entirely determined to make sure I never recovered from the embarrassment.“I spent months convincing myself she would remember me eventually.”More laughter.“She did not.”“Julian!”I heard my own voice somewhere through my tears.He smiled.The soft, helpless smile of a man who had waited years
One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 282
Evelyn's POVBack then, I never could have imagined that the man lying injured in the rain would one day become my future.The horse came to a stop directly in front of me.Julian swung down from the saddle with an ease that immediately reminded me of the first story he'd ever told me about this place, then started walking toward me one slow step at a time, and somewhere along the way the crowd seemed to disappear. The laughter faded. The conversations died away. Even the distant sounds from the stables dissolved into the background until all I could hear was the wind moving through the grass.The breeze lifted the hem of my dress.It tugged lightly at the sleeves of his shirt.And for reasons I couldn't explain, I suddenly became nervous.Not the kind of nervousness that comes before a presentation.Not the kind that comes before an important decision.Something softer.Something infinitely more dangerous.Because this was Julian.The man who had already seen me at my worst.The man
One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 281
Evelyn's POVThe moment I thought of Julian, my heart gave a small, unexpected flutter.Then the gates began to open.Slowly.Almost ceremonially.Beyond them, the sun was sinking behind the distant hills, and the last light of the afternoon spilled across the training grounds in waves of molten gold, turning the grass into something that looked less like a riding field and more like a memory.And then I saw them.So many people.For a second I genuinely forgot how to breathe.My coworkers from Wild Haven Rescue.Former classmates from UCLA who had once survived impossible deadlines and all-night research sessions with me.Veterinarians from the animal hospital.Volunteers.Friends.People who had drifted into my life at different moments and somehow stayed.They stood quietly on either side of the path, each holding a photograph.And together those photographs told a story.My story.There was a picture from my graduation.One from the first year at WHR, when I'd ended up sitting on
One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 280
Evelyn's POVIf someone asked me to name the most nerve-racking day of my life, I'd probably say today without hesitation.Not the day I discovered Sebastian's affair. Not the day I signed the divorce papers. Not even the night I thought everything might fall apart in that hotel room. Somehow, despite everything that had happened over the past few years, nothing compared to the strange, escalating sense that I was currently being escorted toward some enormous secret while every person I loved conspired to keep me in the dark.Two hours earlier, I'd been convinced Julian had simply talked me into attending another equestrian charity event. An hour earlier, Dean had somehow managed to get my favorite dress delivered to my hotel room before I even knew I needed it. Thirty minutes earlier, Maddie had practically held me hostage in front of a mirror while touching up my makeup with the concentration of a neurosurgeon and refusing to answer a single question about why she suddenly cared so
One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 279
Evelyn's POVIf I hadn't heard his voice.If that knock hadn't come through the door.If the words open the door hadn't cut through the panic and reached me when I was drowning inside it.I think a part of me would have remained trapped in that room forever.Not physically.Emotionally.Because fear has a way of shrinking the world until nothing exists beyond it, and in those moments before Julian arrived, it felt as though the darkness was closing in from every direction at once, swallowing reason, swallowing hope, swallowing the certainty that everything would eventually be okay.Then I heard him.Just a voice.Just two words.Yet it felt like the first light breaking through a storm.Something solid.Something real.Something I could reach for.So I did.I held onto that voice with everything I had.And when Julian finally appeared in the doorway, standing between me and the nightmare that had been unfolding only seconds earlier, the only thought left in my mind was that I wanted t
One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 278
Evelyn's POVI couldn't stop wondering what Sebastian looked like through Julian's eyes.The thought settled into my mind and refused to leave, because if I was being honest with myself, there was a part of me that wanted something terrible to happen to him. I wanted him to suffer. I wanted him to lose something he could never get back. I wanted him to understand what it felt like to have fear lodged inside his chest like broken glass, to have his sense of safety stripped away piece by piece, to know what it was like to stand helpless while someone stronger decided your fate for you.Those thoughts were ugly.Cruel.The kind of thoughts decent people weren't supposed to have.Yet they kept surfacing anyway, dragged up from some dark corner of my heart that I had never wanted to examine too closely.And what shook me most wasn't discovering that those feelings existed.It was realizing that Julian seemed to be carrying them too.His eyes were like a mirror held up to everything I had b

Evelyn's POVAutumn in Seattle looks like someone spent an unreasonable amount of money commissioning the world’s most relaxing landscape painting.Maple trees are on fire with color, the ocean stretches out in the distance like it’s posing for a postcard, snow-dusted mountains sit on the horizon p

Evelyn's POVWhen I got home, I tossed Sebastian’s latest “cheating compensation”—a brand-new Louis Vuitton Capucines BB—straight into my bag cabinet.The moment I let go—I froze.What used to be one neat row… had somehow turned into an entire wall. A full-blown luxury forest. Every color. Every s

Evelyn's POVWhen I woke up, it was already 8:30. Crap! Totally broke my 7 a.m. morning run streak. And of course… all thanks to this man. God knows how we ended up going all the way until 5 a.m. last night. Honestly, I think I passed out from exhaustion in the end.I only planned to do it once… af
One Night Stand With My Hubby's Cousin Chapter 3
Evelyn's POVI’m pretty sure his brain took a swim in Lake Como. Otherwise why on earth would he suddenly want to sleep with me again?I still remember that ridiculous line of his—— “I don’t do easy.”Well, if you don’t want me, I don’t want you either. Same rule I’ve got for Sebastian—I’m not turn
