THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 184- THE UNWANTED GUEST
“What is this?” I asked. Nathan was the first to step forward. He looked at me with a small smile, still holding the large bouquet of roses in his hands. “It’s been a long time since I heard from you,” he said. “I wanted to surprise you. I didn’t know you would be having company.” I looked at the flowers, then at him. “You should have called.” He smiled. “Then it wouldn’t be a surprise.” I sighed. “You always have an answer.” “I'm sorry if I was disturbing something.” Before I could say anything else, Adrian stepped forward. I turned toward him. For a moment, he simply looked at me. Then I heard a loud voice from behind me. “Daddy!” I looked back. Lila and Elias had ignored Emma completely. The moment they saw Adrian through the window, they had rushed outside. “Wait!” Emma called after them. But it was already too late. Adrian immediately bent down on one knee as the children ran toward him. Elias reached him first and threw his arms around his neck. Lila followed, wra
THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 183- THE DAY EVERYTHING FELT NORMAL
The next few weeks were peaceful. For the first time in a long while, my life stopped feeling like a storm that could break again at any moment. There were no sudden calls from anyone about anything, no hospital visits, no threats waiting around every corner. I almost forgot what normal felt like. Every morning, I woke up to the sound of Lila and Elias arguing over something small. Some days it was a toy. Other days, it was who would sit beside me at breakfast. “Mommy, Elias took my spoon,” Lila complained one morning. “I didn’t take it,” Elias argued. “You dropped it.” I looked at both of them and smiled. “Then use another spoon.” They looked at each other. “Okay,” they said together. Those little moments meant more to me than they knew. When it was time for school, everything had changed slightly. My children still went to school, but they were never alone. Extra security followed them every day. I didn’t like having to make them live that way, but after everything that had
THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 182- THE PARENTS I COULDN'T ABANDON
“What are they doing here?” I whispered. “What do they want this time?”I opened the door and stepped out.“Mom. Dad. What are you doing outside in this rain?”My mother looked at me, her eyes already red. “We needed to see you.”“You could have called.”“I know.”I sighed and looked at their wet clothes.“Come inside.”We entered the mansion together. Clara quickly took Lila and Elias from the car.“Come on,” she told them. “Let’s get you upstairs.”“Mommy is coming?” Elias asked.“I’ll be there soon,” I promised.Lila hugged me tightly.“Goodnight, Mommy.”I kissed her forehead.“Goodnight, my baby.”Clara took both of them upstairs. Emma followed us inside and looked between me and my parents. She understood the tension immediately.“I’ll go check on the children again,” she said quietly.I nodded. “Thank you.”We changed out of our wet clothes. A few minutes later, Emma came back downstairs. She looked at me and then at my parents.“I think you should have some time with them.”I

Nathan was silent for a few seconds after I told him we could discuss whatever he wanted over the phone.Then he spoke.“Serena, I’m sorry.”I didn’t respond.“I know I’ve already apologized, but I need you to hear me properly this time. What I did was wrong. I entered your room while you were sleeping, and I crossed a boundary you trusted me enough to have.”My jaw tightened.“I shouldn’t have touched you. I shouldn’t have been there. There is no excuse for it.”I stared at the papers on my desk. Nathan continued.“I’m not going to blame jealousy or confusion. I made that choice, and I have to accept it.”I was quiet.“I understand if you don’t want to speak to me again,” he said. “I understand if you never trust me the same way again.”His words caught me off guard. I had expected him to defend himself or blame his jealousy. Instead, he was taking responsibility.“I hurt you and your trust. I’m truly sorry, Serena.”I leaned back in my chair.“You know what makes this worse?” I aske

I kept my eyes on the man at the back of the room for another second.Something about his expression bothered me, but I wasn’t going to turn my meeting into an interrogation. Not today. I leaned toward Emma and whispered,“Get me his details later.”She followed my eyes and nodded.“Okay.”I turned back to the staffs. “That’s all for now. Get back to work.”The room slowly came alive again. People began talking as they left, but I stayed where I was until most of them had gone. Emma came beside me. “You handled that well.”“Why do you think I won't?”“You looked tired.”“I am tired.”She smiled gently. “Then go and be a mother for a while.”I laughed softly. “That sounds better than being a CEO.”We walked back to my office. The moment I opened the door, Lila ran toward me.“Mommy!”I bent down and caught her in my arms. Elias came running behind her.“Mommy, look!”He held up a toy car. “You like it?” He nodded proudly. “It’s very fast.”Lila pulled my hand. “Come and see what we m
THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 179- A SECOND CHANCE
I walked back into the guard’s room after Adrian left. He was awake, but his eyes looked tired.“You called me back,” I said.He nodded slowly. “I did.”“The doctor told you to rest.”“I know. I only need a few minutes.”I pulled the chair closer. “What is it?”He looked at me for a moment before speaking. “Give Adrian another chance.”I froze. “What?”“I’m not telling you to forgive him today. I’m saying you should think about giving him another chance.”I stared at him. “You were the one who warned me not to fall in love with him.”“I know.”“You told me I would regret it.”“I still remember saying that.”“Then why are you changing your mind?”He took a slow breath. “Because I saw something in him today that I didn’t see years ago.”“What did you see?”“Regret.”I remained quiet.“He didn’t come here to defend himself. He didn’t blame anyone. He admitted what he did to me was wrong.”“He hurt you.”“Yes. And I haven’t forgotten that.”“Then how can you ask me to trust him?”“I’m not
THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 6- INVISIBLE
I stayed slumped against the wall for a long time, his release still sliding down my thighs. The house was quiet now. Too quiet. Later that night, I couldn’t sleep. I wandered the halls, trying to find water, when I heard voices from the guest wing, low, intimate. I froze outside the slightly aj

Where is Lia?” He asked again. His voice cut through the room like something sharp. I didn’t answer. Not because I didn’t want to, but because I didn’t know where to start.He swung his legs off the bed and stood up, running a hand through his hair. The calm from last night was gone. What stood in
THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 4- THE TRUTH HE WOKE UP TO
He smiled. Soft. Warm. Almost boyish. “There you are,” he murmured. My heart dropped. Because even now… He still thought I was Lia. He stepped in, jacket already off, shirt partially unbuttoned, the scent of whiskey and cologne clinging to him. His movements were unstable from drinking, but ther
THE BRIDE HE NEVER WANTED Chapter 3- THE BRIDE BENEATH THE VEIL
The days before the wedding passed like a blur I couldn’t escape. People moved in and out of the house carrying fabrics, jewelry, flowers, and invitations while I stood in the middle of it all feeling completely detached. Measurements were taken and dresses were fitted. Every room was filled with
