Pregnant and Divorced: My Ex Husband Wants Me Back Chapter 106
EMILY'S POVThe sound echoes again. It’s a dull bang that makes my heart jolt. Carlos and I snap apart instantly, as if the air between us hasn’t just been crackling with heat seconds before. His brows furrow, and he turns toward the hallway."What the hell was that?" he mutters.“I don’t know,” I say, my voice breathless from everything—not just the noise.Together, we rush toward the living room. His hand holds mine as we move. The house is quiet except for that strange sound, but as we reach the wide window near the couch, I hear it clearer.Patter. Patter. Pat-pat-pat.Rain.I move closer, pulling aside the curtains. What I see takes my breath away.It’s not just any rain—it’s a full-blown storm. The huge trees outside look like they’ll snap at any moment.Carlos stands beside me, staring out.“Shit,” he breathes. “That came fast.”He glances at the clock on the wall and rubs the back of his neck. “I should probably get going before it gets worse.”“What?” I turn to him. “No. Carl

EMILY'S POVThe car ride back to my place is quieter than I expect it to be after such an eventful evening, but the silence isn’t uncomfortable. It’s the kind of silence that exists between two people who don’t need words to fill the space, just presence. But when Carlos parks in front of my house and kills the engine, we both exhale at the same time… and then we laugh.Laugh too hard, actually.“That was…” Carlos says between chuckles, shaking his head. “That was something.”I wipe a tear from the corner of my eye and turn toward him. “Dinner was amazing. Everyone was so happy to see me. And us. But I’m guessing you’re not talking about the food?”Carlos looks at me with an amused smirk. “Nope. I’m referring to Lina showing up like an uninvited plot twist.”“Yeah,” I mutter. “Why would she just… show up like that?”Carlos rests his elbow on the steering wheel, drumming his fingers slowly before sighing. “I’m starting to think she’s a little obsessive.”I blink at him. “Obsessive?

EMILY’S POVLina.I blink, unsure for a moment if my eyes are playing a cruel trick on me. But no—there she is.She looks as lavish as ever. She’s wearing a sparkly emerald gown that shimmers with every step she takes inside. Her smile is painted on perfectly, but her eyes—they’re wild.What’s she doing here?“Surprise,” she purrs.The room falls dead silent. A fork clatters somewhere across the table. You can hear the hum of the chandelier. Even the candles seem to flicker more nervously.Juliet leans into her wine glass and mutters not-so-quietly, “More like a nightmare.”Kathy snorts and rolls her eyes. “Of course she wore emerald. The color of envy and delusion.”I can’t move. I just stare at her as she slowly makes her way into the room, like a queen arriving late to her coronation. My mouth goes dry.“Carlos…” I whisper, my eyes never leaving Lina. “Did you… did you invite her?”Carlos turns to me, looking equally shocked. “What? No—no! Emily, I swear to you, I haven’t spoken to

Here’s your text rewritten in present tense, with no changes to the content—only the verb tenses have been updated:EMILY'S POVI stand in front of the full-length mirror in my room. My hand gently cradles my small but growing bump.We are having a baby girl. My baby girl. The thought still makes my heart flutter with disbelief and happiness. I run my fingers lightly over the curve of my stomach, biting my lower lip as tears sting the corners of my eyes.I never imagine I’d be here—expecting a child, standing in front of this mirror. Now, I will soon face Carlos and his entire family at dinner. My heart pounds with nerves.I shake my head, blinking the thoughts away, and reach for the necklace on the vanity. It is a silver chain with a little heart pendant—simple, but it was my grandmother's. I fasten it carefully, take a deep breath, and look at myself again. My stomach pushes slightly against the pale blue dress I wear. I smooth the fabric and smile nervously at my reflection.“You’

EMILY’S POVThree days. Just three days since the fire and here I am. Back in my studio like it never happened. Carlos did everything to try to convince me to stay home and rest but I still have a lot to do plus I’m feeling a lot better. I won’t let a little incident keep me down.The place is still in recovery mode, with ladders leaned against the walls and the sound of hammering echoing somewhere in the back. The constructors are fixing a lot of things. But I’m here. I’m working. And I’m grateful.My office window overlooks the worksite. A large tarp covers a partially scorched wall outside, but my design space—the heart of everything was mostly untouched. Thank God for insurance. Thank God for second chances.My sketchpad lies open in front of me, filled with new silhouettes and fabric swatches. My laptop rests on the cleanest part of my desk, set up for the biggest Zoom call of my life. The screen lights up with faces—eight board members of Juille Hart, one of the most luxurious f

EMILY'S POVI’m trapped.The air is thick, black, suffocating. I can see the flames all around me. It burns, just like the day my office caught fire. A baby cries in my arms. My heart pounds loudly with fear in my chest. Every step I take is so painful that it feels like a marathon. My legs shake beneath me as I trip over the remains of something I can't even recognize. The smoke goes into my lungs. My throat burns.The door slams behind me.I scream and twist toward it. “Carlos!” Suddenly, I hear someone calling my name—his voice? A shadow in the fire. I reach, but I can’t get to him. The flames close in like a cage. The baby wails louder. I jolt awake.A choked scream rips from my throat. My body convulses, launching me sideways off the bed. I hit the wooden floor hard. Something crashes—glass shatters.I scramble backwards on instinct, gasping for breath. My fingers dig into the floorboards.reality. The room is dark but all I see are flames. I can still see smoke in the corners.

Lina’s POVThe TV is on in the background, casting a soft glow over the living room. I’m not even really listening to the news report anymore—I’ve seen it so many times by now, I know it by heart.“—no suspects have been confirmed, but authorities believe the fire at the boutique was intentional…”I take another slow sip of wine, smiling a little as I watch the screen. The anchor’s serious voice tries to make sense of something they’ll never fully understand.“You should’ve stayed away, Emily,” I say to myself. I swirl the glass in my hand. “Now you’ll see what happens when you take what’s mine.”Then, my phone buzzes on the counter. The sound cuts through the silence.I pick it up.Unknown Number: Emily survived. My heart stops.I stare at the words for a second before they really hit me. Then the glass slips out of my hand.I throw it and it smashes against the wall. I barely notice the shards on the floor. All I can think about is that one line.She survived.I feel heat rise thro

DANIEL'S POV The minutes tick by slowly I stand near the corkboard, looking at every photo of Lina that I've managed to get. I tap my fingers on the table nearby, waiting impatiently for Carlos to get here. Just when I'm about to call him to ask where he is, I hear the slam of a car door outside. That has to be him. Finally.Carlos walks in nearly an hour late, and the second I see him, my chest tightens. Not from anger. From worry. My little brother looks like hell. Dark circles bruise the skin under his eyes, there's something that looks like soot on his jacket, and his eyes are red—bloodshot from exhaustion, worry, or maybe crying. He looks stiff, like every muscle in his body has forgotten how to relax.He doesn’t say hello. Doesn’t ask what’s going on. His voice is low as he walks forward. "Talk.” he says. I nod once and step away from the corkboard. “I’ve been doing some research on Lina.”Carlos frowns, confused. “Why?”“Because,” I say, “you’re too naïve to see that Lina

DANIEL’S POVThe room is dark. Papers are spread across the table like a crime scene—photos, documents, notes scribbled in red ink, and right in the center… her face.Lina.The corkboard is above my desk. Red string crisscrosses the board, pinning together events that, at first glance, seem unrelated. But I see it now. A pattern. Her name, her face, connected to outbursts, fights, assaults and now…I stare down at the folder in my hand—its edge creased from how tightly I’m gripping it. My thumb brushes over the bold red stamp on the front: Sealed Record. It took an old favor and an uncomfortable call to a cop I hadn’t spoken to in five years to get this. But it was worth it.I open the folder slowly and my eyes scan the page.Name: Lina Veronica HaleDOB: 09/14/1996Juvenile Record: SealedCharges: Arson, Harassment, Assault, StalkingI whisper to myself, breath catching in my throat. "Arson. Harassment. Assault. Stalking..."I drag a hand down my face "This girl’s been unhinged sinc
