**Mia's POV**

"Hey, woman!" Scarlett's voice cut through my thoughts. Her perfectly manicured fingers snapped in front of my face. "You've been staring at that coffee cup for ten minutes. Spill."

I blinked, focusing on my best friend's concerned face across the café table. Scarlett looked exactly as she always did – fiery red hair styled in elegant waves, designer clothes, and an expression that said she'd brook no nonsense.

"I'm fine," I said automatically, the words feeling hollow even to my own ears.

"Right." Scarlett leaned back, crossing her arms. "And I'm the Queen of England. Come on, what's going on? You look like y

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 236 Those boys hit me!

    Mia's POV"What's wrong?" I asked, immediately going into crisis mode."There's kids playing tag in the garden!" Ethan announced breathlessly. "Can we play too? Please?"I looked around and spotted several other children around their age racing through the French doors that led to the terrace."As long as you stay where I can see you," I said. "And no climbing on anything! And if you get dirty, you'll have to sit quietly for the rest of the night.""We promise!" they chorused, already turning to race back toward the doors."Be careful!" I called after them, then turned back to Thomas with an apologetic smile. "Sorry. Parental override.""I love watching you with them," he said softly, pulling me close again. "You're such a good mother, Mia.""I try," I replied, though I wasn't always sure I was doing it right. Single parenting was exhausting, even with all the help I had."You don't just try," Thomas insisted. "You succeed. Every day."His words warmed me."Thomas," I began, not sure

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 235 Here's to Jeo and Leila

    Mia's POV"Mind if I steal Mia for a moment?" he asked Thomas. "I need to practice my speech, and she's always been my best audience.""Of course," Thomas smiled. "Just bring her back before the dancing starts."Nate led me to a quieter corner of the ballroom, near the floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out over the gardens."Nervous?" I asked, noting the slight tension in his shoulders."Terrified," he admitted with a self-deprecating laugh."You'll be fine," I assured him. "Just speak from the heart.""They really are perfect together." Nate continued quietly.There was something wistful in his voice that made my chest tighten. We'd never really talked about his dating life since he'd moved back to New York. I knew he went out occasionally, but nothing serious, nothing that lasted."You'll find it," I said gently. "The right person is out there."He smiled, but it didn't quite reach his eyes. "Maybe. Or maybe some of us are meant to be the matchmaker instead of the match."Before

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 234 Jeo's Wedding

    Mia's POV"Mia," Thomas's voice snapped me out of my daze.I blinked, realizing I'd been staring out the car window for who knows how long, completely lost in thought. The city scenery blurred past us as we made our way to Jeo and Leila's wedding."Sorry," I said, turning to face him with what I hoped was an apologetic smile. "Just thinking."Thomas squeezed my hand gently, his thumb tracing small circles on my knuckles. He didn't ask what I was thinking about, though I could see the question in his warm brown eyes. He never pushed, and it made me feel even more guilty.Because I'd been thinking about Maxwell again.And by extension, about Kyle.The resemblance between them was driving me absolutely insane. Every time I met with Jackson Maxwell for the estate project, I found myself studying his face, looking for differences."Mama, are we there yet?" Alexander's voice piped up from the backseat, cutting through my spiraling thoughts."Almost, sweetheart," I replied, grateful for the

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 233 So damn dramatic

    Mia's POVI picked up the necklace, feeling its weight in my palm. The diamonds caught the morning light, casting tiny rainbows on the bedroom wall like some kind of cosmic disco ball.Why was I even thinking about this?It was just a necklace. Beautiful, yes, but ultimately just jewelry. It had no magic powers, no special mojo. It was just... pretty. Really, really pretty.And it would look absolutely perfect with the outfit I was wearing today.Before I could talk myself out of it, I fastened the necklace around my neck. The star-shaped pendant fell perfectly at the base of my throat.I caught my reflection in the mirror and paused. The woman staring back at me looked polished, professional, ready to conquer the architectural world. The necklace added just the right touch of elegance without being too flashy."It's just a business meeting," I told my reflection firmly. "Just work."My phone buzzed with a text from Thomas: Knock 'em dead today. Love you.I smiled, typing back: Will d

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 232 Standing in front of my jewelry box

    Mia's POVThe sheets were still warm, and I could feel the lingering heat from Thomas's body beside me. My skin felt sensitive in all the right ways, and there was this perfect drowsiness that came after really good sex. Thomas's hand was doing that thing he always did afterward—unconsciously twirling strands of my hair around his fingers, like he was making tiny golden spirals.I stretched languidly, enjoying the pull in my muscles, and turned my head to look at him. His eyes were closed, but I could tell from his breathing that he wasn't asleep. There was this little smile playing at the corners of his mouth that made me want to kiss him again."Mmm," I hummed contentedly, snuggling closer to his chest."You're perfect.", his voice still husky. His arm tightened around me, pulling me flush against his side.I laughed softly. "I'm sweaty and my hair's a mess.""Perfectly messy," he corrected, giving one of my curls a gentle tug. "The best kind of messy."We lay there in comfortable s

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 231 Isn't that enough?

    Mia's POVThe hot water cascaded down my back, washing away the chaos of the day. Bits of cheese from the restaurant, playground dirt, and the general exhaustion of managing two four-year-olds for an entire afternoon swirled down the drain. I let myself stand there for an extra minute, just breathing.When I finally emerged from the bathroom in my soft cotton pajamas, the apartment was blissfully quiet. Thomas had worked his magic again.I padded barefoot down the hallway, peeking into the twins' room. Alexander was sprawled across his bed like a starfish, one arm dangling off the side, mouth slightly open. Ethan had somehow managed to cocoon himself completely in his blankets, only the top of his dark hair visible.Thomas sat in the chair between their beds, reading something on his phone with the screen dimmed to its lowest setting. He looked up as I appeared in the doorway, giving me that soft smile that never failed to make my heart skip."They went down easy," he whispered, stand
