last update Last Updated: 2025-08-13 22:05:18

The hospital hallway stretched out before Damien as he paced back and forth. It had been over an hour since the doctor had rushed Elena into surgery, explaining that there was fluid in her lungs and it needed to be drained immediately to restore her breathing otherwise, she might not survive.

He’d been walking that same stretch of corridor ever since, every turn filled his mind with darker thoughts.

Finally, after a few more desperate passes, the door opened and the doctor stepped out. Damien was on him in an instant.

“How… how did it go?” he asked quickly

The doctor gave a small nod. “We did everything we could, Mr. Hughston.”

Damien’s heart sank at the pause, but then

“She’s stable. Her oxygen levels have been restored,” the doctor said with a faint smile.

Damien let out a long, heavy breath of relief. “Can I see her now?”

“We’ll need to run a few more checks first,” the doctor replied.

Damien nodded, his gaze drifting to the glass window at the end of the hall. Through i

  • The Nanny Affair   Chapter 37 : Missing

    Victoria had been smiling the entire eight minutes since Damien arrived. They sat facing each other, and while Damien only looked at her with wondering eyes, she mistook his silence for something else. She thought he was falling in love with her all over again. “Don’t make me shy,” she whispered with a flattered giggle, rubbing her arms as the cool air brushed against her skin. Damien lowered his gaze to the table, a deep irritation tightening in his chest. He didn’t want to embarrass her in public, but the longer she carried on, the harder it became to stay composed. When he tried to rise from his seat, Victoria caught his hand. “Wait… don’t get ahead of yourself. We need to enjoy this first before moving to the other section.” She winked, her eyes flicking to the small side room she had decorated to look like a cozy bedroom. “You still haven’t said how much you love this,” she pressed, beaming proudly. “I know, I know…you didn’t expect me to come up with something so beautiful s

  • The Nanny Affair   Chapter 36 : Anniversary

    Victoria had been on her feet since five in the morning, moving back and forth across the kitchen. The bacon still sizzled in the pan while the scrambled eggs steamed on a plate. She wore light makeup with a simple dress, enough to look radiant without overdoing it. Her hands kept fidgeting, straightening a fork here, fixing a napkin there, her eyes darting back to the clock. It was already six o’clock. She wanted everything perfect before Damien’s alarm went off at 6:15.She was reaching up to the cupboard for a glass when the kitchen door creaked.“Elena! Perfect, you’re awake,” Victoria said without even glancing at her. “Pour the juice into this glass while I finish the toast, please.”Elena hesitated, but stepped forward, picking up the jar of juice. Her hands were steady enough, though her eyes lingered on Victoria’s determined movements. The woman was so wrapped up in the details she didn’t even notice the tension in Elena’s face.Victoria finally removed her apron, smoothing i

  • The Nanny Affair   Chapter 35 : New Nanny

    Damien slipped quietly into Elena’s room once the house had gone still. Both sets of parents had left with Victoria’s parents staying at another residence under Damien’s name.Elena rushed out of the bathroom, still drying her hair, when she heard her door open…“Oh…” she whispered, surprised to see Damien standing there.“I’m sorry,” he said quietly with guilt in his eyes. “They were harsh on you.”Elena shook her head, lowering her eyes. “No need. They were right. I should’ve been more careful.” She turned, about to head back into the bathroom, but Damien caught her gently by the waist.Before she could speak, he leaned forward, resting his forehead against her shoulder from behind. Slowly, his arms wrapped around her, holding her close. For a moment, they just stood there in silence, both with eyes closed, breathing each other in.Then, Damien turned her gently against the wall to face him. Their foreheads brushed together before his lips found hers in a slow, searching kiss. The k

  • The Nanny Affair   Chapter 34 : Second Chance

    Damien’s hands trembled as they held Victoria’s face, the kiss deepening, pressing harder as if it pulled every memory from the past into the present. For a moment, nothing else mattered. Before sense could return, Victoria leaned in closer as her silk nightwear slipped slightly, exposing one of her breasts as it brushed against his chest during the escalating kiss, with moans escaping.But just before it could go further, Damien suddenly tore himself away, breathing hard as if he had just escaped drowning… remembering things had changed. He wasn’t the same man anymore. His heart already belonged to someone else.“I’m… I’m sorry,” he muttered with guilt carved on his face.Victoria blinked, looking confused. “Sorry? Damien, you’re making out with your wife,” she chuckled, cocking her head, wondering why he looked like a man committing a crime.But Damien couldn’t bear it, he ran a shaky hand through his hair and backed away. “Please… excuse me,” he said hoarsely, before walking out of

  • The Nanny Affair   Chapter 33 : Mama?

    “My baby…” A voice Damien hadn’t heard in four years rang out, clear and trembling. Even after all that years, it sounded exactly the same.“Mom! Moooom!” Nathaniel cried, his voice breaking as he ran toward it, his small frame shaking with excitement and disbelief.Both Mr. Hughston and Elena stopped dead in their tracks. Shock washed over their faces as their heads turned toward the direction Nathaniel had rushed.“My baby,” the voice came again, closer this time.And then, Victoria’s figure came into view. Her oval face was framed with soft waves, dimples appearing as she smiled, just like in the portraits that still hung on the walls. Her beauty hadn’t faded….if anything, it seemed sharpened, her complexion smooth and luminous, like she’d stepped straight out of a magazine.She knelt, tears glistening in her eyes as she opened her arms.“Mom…” Nathaniel’s voice cracked as he ran into her embrace. She lifted him easily, holding him in a tight, almost desperate hug. They stayed lik
