Rejected by my Husband Chapter 30
Third Person POVThe office floor was eerily quiet. The hum of computers had died down, the chatter of colleagues silenced. One by one, the lights across the hallways had flickered off as people left for the night, until only a single pool of light remained in the vast expanse of the building.Karline Russo sat at her cubicle, her back aching, her eyes stinging from staring at spreadsheets that blurred into one another. She rolled her stiff shoulders, sighing softly. The silence pressed on her, heavy and suffocating.Her gaze drifted toward the corner of her desk. A small photo frame sat there one she always kept close.It was a picture of her and Ethan. His round cheeks pressed against her, his wide smile showing tiny baby teeth, his small fingers curled around hers. Her heart softened instantly. She reached forward, brushing the glass with her fingertips.Her lips trembled. Just one more hour. One more unbearable hour.The tick of the clock above her seemed cruel. Every second dragg

Third Person POVThe office was vast, designed with clean lines and intimidating elegance. Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the cityscape beyond, gleaming like steel and glass reminders of power. At the far end sat a large desk, dark wood, pristine. And in the chair behind it, turned deliberately away from her, was a figure she knew far too well.Reid Carter.Her throat tightened. She closed the door behind her with slow, careful movements, as though even the click of the lock might betray how violently her heart pounded. She walked further in, each step heavier than the last, until she stood silently a few feet from his chair.She didn’t dare speak. She didn’t dare breathe.For a moment, there was only silence. Then his voice cut through it, low, measured, commanding.“Miss Russo, you’re late. Thirty-three minutes and fifty-four seconds late, to be exact.”The precision of it struck her like a blow. Her lips parted slightly, but no words came.“And,” he continued, still facing away,

KARLINE’S POINT OF VIEW The fever hadn’t gone.All through the night, Ethan tossed and turned, his tiny body burning with a heat that terrified me. His cheeks glowed red, his lips dry, and every so often, he whimpered my name. Each sound splintered my heart into pieces.I sat by his side, cloth in hand, wiping his forehead again and again, whispering soothing words I wasn’t sure he could even hear. Each time the medicine worked, it lasted only a few hours before the fever surged back with vengeance.I begged silently, to God, to fate, to anyone who would listen just take the fever away. But the night dragged on, and morning came with no mercy.The doctor had been useless. “It’s just a fever,” he had said again. “Children bounce back. Don’t worry too much, Karline”Don’t worry? How could a mother not worry when her child was suffering?When her child is burning in fever. Still, life was relentless. I had already taken two days off work. Bills were piling up, rent looming, and Ethan n

KARLINE'S POINT OF VIEW The evening carried the damp scent of rain as Karline pushed open the wooden gate to her parents’ farmhouse. Her shoes tapped against the gravel path, her shoulders heavy from another long day at the office. Normally, this walk home gave her comfort the smell of baked bread drifting from the kitchen, Ethan’s laughter echoing across the yard. But tonight, there was no laughter. The door opened before she reached it. Isabella stood there, her apron still tied at the waist, her face pale with worry. “Mamma?” Karline asked quickly, alarm spiking in her chest. “What happened?” Isabella’s hands twisted together. “It’s Ethan. He’s burning up. We tried to cool him down, but his fever isn’t breaking.” Karline’s heart lurched. She didn’t even wait for more. She rushed down the narrow hall and flung open the door to her bedroom. There, curled under the blankets, was Ethan. His cheeks flushed deep crimson, his tiny lips parted as he breathed shallowly. A damp clot

Third Person POVThe sound of keyboards clicking filled the office, mingling with the faint hum of the air conditioner and the occasional ring of a phone. Karline adjusted her headset, her eyes fixed on the spreadsheet glowing on her computer screen. She had always been efficient, always focused. Yet today, her mind kept wandering back to Ethan, who was with her mother on the farm.She smiled faintly at the thought of him chasing the chickens again, his little feet stomping the soil, his giggles echoing across the yard.“Karline,” a voice broke her reverie. It was Chiara, her desk mate, leaning over with a mischievous grin. “You’re smiling again. Let me guess, your little one?”Karline chuckled softly, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “Ethan. He’s probably running wild in the garden right now. My mom says he has too much energy.”“Children are like that.” Chiara sighed dramatically, dropping her pen on the desk. “Meanwhile, look at us. Chained to this office. No chickens to c

Reid’s POVIt’s been three years.Five years since everything fell apart.Five years since I first felt the void in my chest...the silence, the emptiness, the ache that refuses to leave.Five years since Karline… cheated on me. I don’t know how to describe it anymore. I don’t even know if I still believe it. Some days I do, some days I don’t. But the pain doesn’t change. The doubt never fades.I tried to move on. I dated, I entertained, I smiled at dinners, I let women hold my hand. But every time, I stopped. Something inside me wouldn’t let me take the next step. Because no matter what I did, no matter who stood in front of me, my heart always went back to her.Karline.Who was once mine.The only woman I ever loved. The only one I still… can’t let go.Even when I approached her years ago, calm, ready to forgive, she looked me in the eye and confessed… confessed that she had betrayed me.Those words haunt me. And so, my heart burns with two things, love and anger. So tangled I can’
