REID'S POINT OF VIEW

I took Natalie out on a date.

Not because I wanted to.

Not because I love or wants to prove her something.

I took her out because I needed her trust, fully, blindly, irrevocably.

The restaurant was excessive. Glass, gold accents, soft lighting engineered to make people feel important. Powerful. Safe. The kind of place where people loosen their guard because they believe they’re being celebrated. I chose it deliberately. Natalie had always loved places like this, places that

  • Rejected by my Husband   Chapter 215

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW Reid didn’t waste a second. He carried Ethan straight to the small attached washroom, supporting his head carefully against his shoulder so he wouldn’t jolt too much. The boy was still trembling, breath uneven, tiny fingers twisted into the fabric of Reid’s ruined shirt. “It’s okay… it’s okay,” Reid kept repeating quietly, more for Ethan than for himself. Karline followed closely, grabbing fresh clothes from the overnight bag with shaking hands. Inside the washroom, Reid set Ethan gently on the counter, keeping one arm firmly around his waist so he wouldn’t slip. “Baby, I’m going to clean you up, alright?” he said softly. Ethan nodded weakly, eyes glossy, face pale. Reid turned on the tap and wet a soft towel. He wiped Ethan’s mouth carefully first, slow and gentle, as if afraid even the cloth might hurt him. “It tastes bad,” Ethan muttered miserably. “I know,” Reid said. “Let’s rinse it out.” He filled a small cup and brought it to Ethan’s lips

  • Rejected by my Husband   Chapter 214

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEWThe hospital always smelled the same.No matter how many times they came, it never felt familiar.Ethan held Karline’s hand tightly as they walked through the corridor. His other hand was wrapped around Reid’s fingers, smaller, tighter, as if afraid one of them might disappear if he loosened his grip.Reid didn’t let go.Not once.Procedures, checkups, lunches.Ethan pressed himself closer to Karline when a nurse approached with the first tray.Reid crouched beside him immediately.“I’m here,” he murmured.When the needle came, Ethan’s fingers dug hard into Reid’s palm. Hard enough to hurt.Reid didn’t flinch.Karline stroked Ethan’s hair, whispering soft reassurances, her voice steady even though her eyes were glossy.“It’ll be over soon, baby… breathe… just breathe…”Ethan squeezed tighter when the needle pierced his skin. His face twisted, eyes flooding instantly.Reid leaned closer.“Look at me,” he said gently.Ethan tried. His lower lip trembled.“Angr

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW ONE WEEK LATERThe morning felt heavier than usual.The small overnight bag lay open on the bed. Carefully folded clothes. A soft toy. Ethan’s favorite blue sweater even though the hospital rooms were always warm. Karline packed methodically, the way she had learned to do over the past years. practical, organized and steady.Ethan stood near the door at first.Then he realized.And the realization broke him.“Mumma, I don’t wanna go, no no no,” he said, his voice already shaking.Karline turned immediately and knelt in front of him. His eyes were glossy, lips trembling in a way that shattered her composure every single time.She pulled him into her arms.“Baby, it’s very important for you. Try to understand, dear,” she said gently, brushing his hair back.He buried his face into her shoulder but shook his head violently.“Mumma it’s so bad there. Miss Rosie don’t let me play, and I feel so so bad… they they give me so many needles in my arms… it’s so bad.”

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEWBy the time they walked back from the pond, the air around the house had shifted into that warm, golden calm that comes just before evening. The smell of grilled meat lingered thick and comforting. Isabella noticed them first.Her sharp mother’s eyes took in everything in a single glance, the way Ethan was holding Reid’s hand, the quiet in Karline’s face, the slight redness around Reid’s eyes that he clearly hadn’t bothered to hide.She didn’t ask questions.Instead, she smiled warmly.“You helped a lot with the grilling,” Isabella said, wiping her hands on her apron. “If you want, you can stay for lunch. James too.”James, who was currently attempting to balance two plates while Mia loudly gave unnecessary instructions, looked up immediately.“Yes, please,” James said before remembering to look polite. “I mean... if it’s not trouble.”Reid shifted slightly, instinctively cautious.“I don’t want to cause any problems,” he said evenly. The words were respect

  • Rejected by my Husband   Chapter 112

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW Karline called him gently. “Ethan…” He turned from where he had been poking at the grass and walked toward her without protest. There was laziness in his eyes. He slipped easily into her arms when she opened them, settling against her chest as he had done since he was small. She kissed his hair. “Ethan dear… mommy is going to tell something very important to my little baby today.” He leaned back slightly to look at her face. “What’s that, mommy?” Her fingers brushed over his cheek, lingering there a moment longer than usual. “You know what father means? What papa means?” His face lit up immediately. “Nonno!” A faint smile curved her lips. “Yes, baby. Nonno is papa… but he is my father.My papa.” Ethan blinked, processing. “Ohhh…” he said slowly, turning his head slightly. “He’s not my papa, mommy?” Karline shook her head gently. “No, sweetheart.” He grew thoughtful. Not upset. Just thinking. “Do you want to know who you

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW The smoke from the grill drifted lazily into the warm afternoon air when Karline finally moved.Karline had been watching them longer than she intended.Something inside her had been turning quietly all morning.She stepped down from the porch and walked toward him.“Reid.”He looked up immediately.Not distracted. Not delayed.Just attentive.“Yes?”“I need to talk to you.”The words weren’t sharp.But they weren’t light either.Reid straightened instinctively, handing the tongs back to Matteo without question. Matteo glanced between them once but said nothing.Ethan was still running in circles, chasing something invisible.Karline turned slightly and called softly, “Ethan, baby, come here.”He came without hesitation, small feet pattering across dry soil. She bent and lifted him into her arms, pressing a brief kiss to his hair. He wrapped his arms around her neck lazily.She looked at Reid again.“Not here.”He understood immediately.He nodded once. “Ok
