last update publish date: 2026-09-30 19:44:38

Brooke's POV

We had gone to her house, which was a dump I couldn't wait to leave. Empty packs of food lay strewn around, and there was a musty smell in the air.

On our way there, she told me what had happened in the past few days. Apparently, after beating me to a stupor, that old lecher, who had always had such a fiery temper, even while he was still pretending to be nice to me, left the compound with his friend in a fit of anger.

They got into his car and drove off, then they promptly got in

  • The Undesired Wife and Her Hidden Heir   Chapter 71: What Leo Knows

    Carter's POVLeo didn't brighten up on the way home either. When I asked him if he wanted us to get ice cream on the way home, he shook his head quietly."Mom says I'm not to have any ice cream.""Okay, but that's when you're with her, not when you're with me."Still, he shook his head and looked out the window. For the first time ever, it fell on me to carry the conversation. He simply responded with one-word answers, barely smiling. This was quite concerning for a child who laughed a lot, both at funny things and things that weren't even the slightest bit funny. Then when we got home, he wouldn't touch his dinner either. "What's wrong, bud?" I finally asked, crouching in front of him where he sat curled up small on the couch.At first he claimed that nothing was wrong, but I could see his lips quiver and noticed that he was desperately trying to hold back his tears.I didn't give up until he broke down crying. "Please, Daddy, don't let her take me. I don't want to go. Please, Dadd

    Carter's POVMy phone was ringing off the hook, but I couldn't focus on work. The digital notification from my lawyers had been open on my screen for over thirty minutes: Intent to Relocate. I had read it over and again, unable to believe that Brooke was serious, despite her visit the other day. It was crazy to think that she had actually filed it.Of course, I was going to challenge it, but after being bitten in the ass countless times by the system, I wasn't sure I trusted them to work in my favor.Finally, after I got over my initial shock, I called Brooke. She let the phone ring for a long time before she picked up."What exactly do you think you're doing?" I asked without preamble.“Oh, I’m just packing up my stuff. Why? Did you need something?” she said with fake innocence.“What’s the meaning of this nonsense I received?”"Don't act so offended, Carter. I already gave you a heads-up, didn't I? I’m finally taking charge of my life for once. You should actually be proud of me. Y

  • The Undesired Wife and Her Hidden Heir   Chapter 69: Utter disbelief

    Brooke’s POVThere it was. I'd been counting on him asking that… praying he would ask it. I nearly sagged in relief, but I kept myself in check and shrugged as if I actually didn't care one way or the other. "My parents' company is drowning. It has been drowning for quite a while now. That's their only source of livelihood and what they know how to do. That's the easiest place I could get the best job for me as well as the best pay. You could help them. Sign a restructuring deal with them and bring the company under Davis Group; you know, get the company stable again. Also, I want you to reinstate my allowance… the real one, not whatever scraps you've been sending. As you well know, the cost of living has gone up, and Leo is already used to a certain lifestyle. I have to maintain that lifestyle."Something flickered across his face, disbelief giving way to something worse. It almost looked like hatred. Well, too bad. Carter could hate me all he wanted, but he had to give in to my

  • The Undesired Wife and Her Hidden Heir   Chapter 68: The decision

    Brooke’s POVI did the only thing left to do… I went to see Carter. I drove straight to his office and walked into the building, ignoring the not-so-subtle stares of his employees.Ever since that day when Carter had me dragged out of here kicking and screaming, most of them seemed to have lost respect for me.It was all his fault. If he couldn't treat the mother of his child with dignity, why would his employees do so? Of course, they dared not disrespect me to my face.But I could feel their eyes boring holes into my back nonetheless. I could hear them sniggering softly when I passed. God, I hated all of them. If my plan worked, which I hoped to God that it would, I would make their lives a living hell… all of them!Whatever I had been about to say died in my throat when I got to Carter's office and shoved open the door without knocking. Maya was in the office with him.Of course, she was. That scheming whore. I had known right from the onset that this contract shit was just an ex

    Maya's POVLucas was already seated when I arrived. I gave him a quick hug and a kiss on both cheeks and sat down."Okay," he said, the second I sat down. "What's going on? I could feel your panic over your text."I wrapped both hands around my glass to stop them from shaking. "You won't guess what happened today.”“Really? What happened?”“I ran into Brooke at Ethan’s school today.”His eyes widened, then he shrugged. “Well, that was bound to happen sooner or later. So what did she say?”“She didn’t see me.”“Oh, I see.”“Yeah, but that’s not all. I need your honest opinion about something.”“Sure. What’s that?”“It’s about telling Carter about Ethan… and vice versa if he responds favorably to him. And no, this isn’t about me becoming soft towards Carter or anything like that… far from it, but telling Carter about his son has been weighing on my mind lately.”The words hung in the air. Lucas went very still, carefully weighing his words before he spoke them aloud. As far as I could r

In a way, I was responsible for his death, and the knowledge of this made me happy as hell.That was what he got for daring to lay his filthy old hands on me. She also informed me that the woman who had me thrown out today was his wife, and they had been married for several years.The woman knew about everything that went on in that compound and didn't care because she
