THE STAR PLAYER IS HER EX THE BOY WHO LOOKS LIKE ME
chapter 39"Olivia, answer me."The question wasn't loud. That was what made it terrifying.Olivia stood frozen, Charles's hand still wrapped around hers, small and warm and completely unaware of the ground shifting beneath the room."Charles is my son." Her voice came out careful, measured, buying time she didn't have. "That's all you need to know right now.""That's not what I asked."Mara stepped closer, unable to resist. "Maybe you should ask why she never told you the child's name."Olivia rounded on her. "Get out.""You've lied for seven years." Mara's smile was slow, poisonous. "You don't get to decide when the truth comes out anymore."Killian moved between them without thinking, jaw tight. "This isn't your conversation."Mara left, but not before her eyes cut to Olivia one last time, satisfied, cruel, already knowing what was coming.The door shut. Silence dropped over the room like a held breath.Killian's mind was already working, fast and involuntary. Charles's age. The bi
THE STAR PLAYER IS HER EX YOU WERE PREGNANT?
chapter 38"You were pregnant?"The question sat in the air like something with weight. Olivia's face went bloodless. A few feet away, Charles clutched his football, watching the adults without understanding, waiting for someone to explain why the room had gone so strange.Mara stood in the doorway, arms crossed, watching all of it with quiet, terrible satisfaction."Charles." Olivia's voice cracked, but she kept it together. "Go with Karen for a minute, okay?""But—""Please, baby."Karen appeared beside him, taking his hand, guiding him gently out of the room despite his protests. The door clicked shut.Killian didn't wait."You told me you weren't pregnant.""I was seventeen." Her voice shook."That's not an answer.""I was scared, Killian. I didn't know what else to do."He stepped closer, his stillness somehow worse than shouting would have been. "Scared of what?""Your mother." The words came out fast now, like a dam finally giving. "She came to the hospital while you were getti

CHAPTER 37Killian's hand tightened around the photograph. "Olivia. Answer me."Her phone rang before she could.She almost let it go. Then she saw the number, local, unfamiliar, and something in her gut told her to pick up."Mrs. Hart." A man's voice, brisk, official. "This is Detective Ruiz. We've located the building. We need you here now."The room spun sideways. She was already moving toward the door when Killian's hand caught hers."We go together."She didn't fight him this time.The drive took nine minutes that felt like an hour. Police cars already lined the curb outside a squat, gray warehouse when they pulled up, red and blue light bouncing off broken windows. Olivia was out of the car before it fully stopped.An officer led them up a narrow stairwell to a small room on the second floor. Empty, except for a folding chair, a half-eaten sandwich on a paper plate, and a football sitting alone in the corner.Charles's football.Olivia's knees gave out. Killian caught her, both
THE STAR PLAYER IS HER EX FIND MY SON
CHAPTER 36The photograph blurred in front of her eyes, and the floor tilted sideways.Killian caught her before her knees gave out completely, one arm hooking around her waist, holding her upright against him."Where is he?""I don't know." Her voice came out in pieces. "I don't know, Killian, I don't—"He looked at the photo again. Charles's small face, that unfamiliar room, the message underneath it burning itself into memory. Then he looked at her."We're getting him back."She didn't argue. Didn't tell him she could handle it. For once in seven years, she let someone else carry part of the weight.They hit the school running.The principal met them at the door, already pale. "Whoever picked him up knew things. His birthday. Your maiden name. Enough to convince the front desk he was legitimate.""Show me the footage." Killian's voice was quiet. Controlled in a way that was somehow worse than shouting.They crowded into the security office. The main camera showed nothing useful, a

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVEThe phone rang three times before Mara answered, her thumb trembling against the screen."What do you want?""That's an interesting question," the voice said, calm, unhurried, the same maddening evenness it always carried. "What do I want. What do you want, Mara? Those seem like better questions.""I want you to stop sending me photographs like I'm supposed to do something with them.""You are supposed to do something with them.""If this comes out, it doesn't just ruin Olivia." Mara's voice rose, sharp with something close to panic. "You know exactly what I did seven years ago. If Charles's existence goes public, people are going to start asking who else knew. Who else helped keep it buried."Silence on the line, long enough that she thought the call had dropped."Then I suppose," the voice said finally, "you should think very carefully about how badly you actually want Killian for yourself. Because right now, you're the only one holding the leash on this. And lea
THE STAR PLAYER IS HER EX THE LIE ON EVERY SCREEN
CHAPTER THIRTY-FOURThe cameras hit Killian before he'd made it past the second set of doors."Killian! Did Olivia Hart leave you for your own best friend?""Is it true she orchestrated the whole breakup?""Can you confirm the affair started before graduation?"He didn't slow down. Didn't flinch. He stopped at the edge of the lobby, waited for the noise to settle into something resembling silence, and looked directly into the nearest lens."That isn't the woman I know."Five words. He didn't elaborate, didn't take a single follow-up question, just turned and walked toward the elevator while three dozen microphones strained after him like they could physically drag more out of his back.By the time he reached the stairwell, the clip was already live.Upstairs, Olivia stood frozen in front of a break room television, watching her own face flash beside his on a chyron that read DENIES CLAIMS: "THAT ISN'T THE WOMAN I KNOW." Her hands had gone cold around her coffee mug.He was still prote
