last update วันที่เผยแพร่: 2025-12-22 16:45:15

The message appeared on my screen like a death sentence.

It was Friday evening. I was sitting at my desk, pretending to review code for the Project Aether expansion, but mostly I was just staring at the cursor blinking against the black background.

It had been one week since the masquerade. One week since I woke up in a penthouse suite and ran for my life. One week since I blocked ShadowKnight on every platform we shared.

It hurt to do it. It felt like cutting off a limb. But I told myself it w

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 326: Paris Becomes Second Home

    The estate kitchen was a whirlwind of Thanksgiving prep, a symphony of clattering pans, laughter, and the rich scent of roasting turkey and sage.Aria stood at the island, chopping celery for the stuffing. She wasn't just cooking for the immediate family this year; the guest list had expanded again.Theo was home from Paris, looking impossibly chic in a scarf and a blazer that probably cost more than Aria’s first car. He was currently regaling Liam and Hope with stories about a street artist in Montmartre who painted with espresso.But the real focus of the day wasn't the turkey, or even Theo’s return.It was Emma.Emma had arrived an hour ago from D.C., and she hadn't come alone.David was standing by the window, talking to Noah. He was tall, lanky, with kind eyes behind wire-rimmed glasses and a cardigan that looked soft enough to sleep in. He was a social worker, Emma had said. He worked with at-risk youth in Anacostia.He was nice. He was polite. He brought wine.And Noah was watc

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 325: We Really Did It

    The first year of Grace’s life passed in a blur of joy that felt almost illegal.There were no lawsuits. No subpoenas. No reporters hiding in the bushes.There were just first steps (at ten months, because she was impatient). First words ("Mine," directed at Liam’s toy car). First birthday, celebrated in the garden with a smash cake that ended up mostly in Noah’s hair.It was the golden era. The peace they had fought for.But peace, Aria learned, had its own kind of ache."He got it," Noah said, walking into the kitchen one Tuesday morning. He held a letter—an actual, physical letter, heavy and cream-colored."Theo?" Aria asked, looking up from her coffee."The residency," Noah said. "In Paris. The École des Beaux-Arts."Aria felt a sudden, sharp pang in her chest. "Paris.""It's a two-year program," Noah said. "Starting in September."Aria looked out the window. September was two months away."He's twenty-five," Aria said. "He's been ready for years. We just... kept him.""We didn't

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 324: Born Into Love

    The delivery room was quiet.It wasn't the eerie, terrified silence of the ambulance ride with Sienna. It wasn't the heavy, drug-induced silence of the magnesium drip. It was a warm, expectant hush, like an audience waiting for the curtain to rise on the final act of a beloved play.Aria lay back against the pillows. The monitors beeped a slow, steady rhythm. Beep... beep... beep."Pressure is perfect," Dr. Sarah Evans said, checking the readouts. "Contractions are regular. You're doing great, Aria."Aria looked at Noah.He was sitting in the chair beside the bed, holding her hand. He wasn't wearing a tuxedo or a suit. He was wearing a soft grey t-shirt and jeans. He looked older than the man who had paced this same hospital floor years ago—the silver in his beard was more pronounced, the lines around his eyes deeper—but he also looked lighter."You're not pacing," Aria noted, a small smile touching her lips between breaths."I don't need to pace," Noah said. He brought her hand to hi

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 323: A Miracle

    The West family estate had become, once again, a bunker. But this time, it wasn't fortified against lawyers or paparazzi. It was fortified against time.Aria sat in the living room, her feet elevated on a pouf. She was eight weeks along, but the fatigue felt like eight months. The nausea was a constant, rolling sea sickness that made even the smell of coffee—once her lifeline—intolerable.Noah sat beside her, his laptop open but ignored. He was watching her breathe."You're staring," Aria murmured, eyes closed."I'm monitoring," Noah corrected. "There's a difference.""Monitoring is for doctors," Aria said. "Husbands are for distraction.""I can juggle," Noah offered.Aria smiled faintly. "I'd pay to see that."The front door opened. A whirlwind of energy blew into the room."We're here!" Emma announced, dropping her weekend bag in the foyer. She was wearing her "Legal Aid" hoodie and looked exhausted but happy. "And we brought reinforcements."Theo walked in behind her, carrying a ma

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 322: Just the Two of Them

    The travel brochures were spread across the penthouse coffee table like a fan of possibilities.Amalfi Coast. Kyoto. The Maldives."I like the idea of a villa," Noah said, picking up a glossy pamphlet. "Somewhere with a private chef and zero Wi-Fi.""You say that now," Aria said, looking up from her iPad where she was checking flight schedules. "But by day three, you'll be trying to construct a router out of a coconut.""I've evolved," Noah insisted. "I can handle being disconnected. I'm a zen master now."Aria laughed. It was a warm, easy sound. The house was quiet—truly quiet, with all the children out of the nest—and for the first time in twenty years, the silence didn't feel like a prelude to chaos. It felt like freedom."Italy," Aria decided. "We can eat pasta, drink wine, and sleep until noon.""Sold," Noah said.He leaned back on the sofa, stretching his arm along the backrest. He looked at her with a lazy, contented affection."You look a little green," Noah noted. "Did the su

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 321: What Love Looks Like

    The silence in the penthouse was not the same silence that had haunted Aria years ago. That silence had been sharp, anxious, filled with the things they weren't saying.This silence was soft. It was the quiet of a job well done.Aria walked through the living room. The playpen was gone. The textbooks were gone. The stray cleats and dance bags and charging cables that had tripped her for two decades were gone.Emma had moved to D.C. for her job at the Justice Department. Theo was in Paris for a residency. Liam was at Stanford. Even Hope and Lila were away at college.The nest wasn't just empty; it was pristine.Aria ran her hand along the back of the sofa. No crumbs. No sticky fingerprints."It echoes," she said aloud."It does," Noah said.He was standing in the doorway, watching her. He held two glasses of wine. His hair was silver now, a distinguished frost at the temples, but his eyes were the same—dark, intense, watching her with a focus that had never wavered."Does it make you s

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 96: Coming Home

    The drive from Mount Sinai to the penthouse usually took twenty minutes. Today, it took forty-five. I drove the Aston Martin like it was made of glass, wincing at every pothole, glaring at every taxi that dared to merge too close.In the backseat, encased in a car seat that looked like a miniature

    The morning of my wedding didn't start with a sunrise yoga session or a green juice. It started with a diaper blowout at 6:00 AM."Happy wedding day," I whispered to Emma, wiping her down while she kicked her legs happily on the changing table. "You certainly know how to make an entrance."She cooe

    The black envelope from Vertex lay in the recycling bin, but its ghost lingered at the breakfast table.Aria was feeding Emma—now three months old and discovering the joy of spitting pureed pears—but her eyes were distant. She was mentally rearranging furniture, or perhaps load-bearing walls."You'

  • Pregnant With My Twin Sister’s Fiancé’s Baby   Chapter 98: Sleepless Nights and Bonding

    The digital clock on the nightstand read 3:14 AM. It was a hateful, mocking shade of red.Beside me, the bassinet erupted.It wasn't a cute, whimpering cry. It was a full-lunged siren that signaled the end of the world, or at least the end of my two-hour nap.Aria groaned, shifting under the duvet.
