Mia's POV

"Scarlett," I hissed.

But she was grinning. That wicked grin that meant she was enjoying herself far too much.

The string quartet had shifted into something more structured. Not the ceremony music yet. But getting close. That particular transition from background noise to actual performance.

People were settling into their seats. The murmur of conversation was fading. Being replaced by that expectant hush.

Sophie was still standing. Her red dress catching every possible ray of afternoon light. She turned in a slow circle. Taking in the venue. The roses. The silk. The chandeliers hanging from trees like someone had decided gravity was optional.

"This is magnificent," she announced to no one in particular. "Absolutely magnificent. Though I would have used more peonies. Roses are beautiful but predictable."

"Nobody asked for your opinion on the florals," Thomas said.

"That's what makes it so valuable."

Thomas opened his mouth. Closed it. Opened it again.

Kyle's hand came up. To

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 503 The world hadn't ended

    Mia's POVThe apartment smelled something familiar. The lavender of the diffuser I'd left running in the living room. The faint, stubborn sweetness of the cookies Alexander had baked last week, burned on the edges, still somehow lingering in the kitchen walls. The woolly, animal warmth that meant Gas.I stood in the doorway and let the smell of it wash over me.Alexander pushed past me first. "We're HOME!" he announced. "WE'RE HOME AND DADDY'S ALIVE!"His voice bounced off the walls. Off the family photos in the hallway—the one from last Christmas where Ethan was mid-sneeze, the one from Madison's adoption day where we were all crying and smiling at once. Off the coatrack with its tangle of scarves and jackets, the top hook still holding the raincoat I'd been meaning to donate for six months.The lights came on. One by one. The living room with the blanket still bunched on the couch where Madison had been sitting when I told them we were goin

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 502 Almost Home

    Mia's POVAlexander's sneaker squeaked against the linoleum. "Daddy?"Kyle's hand lifted off the blanket. Slow. The IV tube trailing behind it like a leash. His fingers found Alexander's hair.Alexander climbed. His knee caught the bed rail. His elbow jabbed into Kyle's hip. The heart monitor spiked.Alexander's face pressed into Kyle's shoulder. The hospital gown bunched under his cheek, the fabric dotted with small blue diamonds, the kind of pattern. Alexander's fingers found the edge of the gown and twisted. Held."You woke up." The words were muffled. Wet. "You woke up you woke up you woke up—"Kyle's hand moved in Alexander's hair. Once. Twice. His eyes were closed again. At the foot of the bed, Ethan stood."Ethan." Kyle's voice was rough. Sandpaper on wood."Come here, Ethan."Kyle's hand extended. Palm up. The IV line stretched. The needle shifted under the tape. The seconds stretched. I could hear Alexander's breathing. I could hear the fluorescent light buzzing overhead. I co

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 501 Kyle, can you hear me?

    Mia's POVWe took the elevator back up. Madison pressed the button. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.The doors opened.The hallway was quiet. It was always quiet on this floor. The ICU had a particular quality of silence—not empty, but muffled. Held. Like the building itself was holding its breath.I pushed the door open.Alexander was still standing by the bed. Still talking. His voice had gone hoarse now, scratchy at the edges, but he hadn't stopped."—and then the dragon said, 'I'm not scary, I'm just misunderstood,' and the princess said, 'Well, you should work on your communication skills,' and the dragon said—"He stopped when he saw us."Madison, you're back. I'm telling Daddy about the dragon and the princess. Do you want to help? You can be the princess voice. I'm doing the dragon voice."Madison walked to the sofa. Sat down. Pulled Eleanor against her chest."Maybe later," she said."Okay." Alexander turned back to Kyle. "Madison says maybe later. She's shy. But she'll do the princess voice e

    Mia's POV"Daddy, wake up."Alexander's voice was small. Not the usual Alexander voice.He was standing on his tiptoes, his chin resting on the edge of the hospital bed, his fingers curled around the metal railing. The bed was too high for him. He'd dragged a chair over earlier, but he preferred standing. Said it made him feel closer."Mama says if you leave us like this again, she'll never forgive you."The ventilator hissed. A soft, rhythmic sound. In. Out. In. Out.I didn't correct him. I hadn't said those exact words. But I hadn't not said them either.The monitors beeped. Steady. Green lines moving across black screens in patterns. Heart rate: 62. Oxygen: 97. Blood pressure: 118/76. Numbers that meant alive. Numbers that didn't mean awake.Kyle's face was slack. That was the word the nurse had used. Slack."I learned a new word today," Alexander continued. He was tracing patterns on the blanket with his finger. Circles. Squares. A lopsided star. "Ethan taught me. It's called 'com

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 499 I Pray

    Mia's POVThe family lounge was too bright. That was the thing about hospitals—they never let you forget where you were. The fluorescent lights hummed overhead, casting everything in that flat, shadowless glare that made everyone look slightly ill. Even Sophie, with her perfect makeup and her Hermès scarf, looked washed out. Gray around the edges.Madison was asleep against my shoulder.Her breath came slow and even, warm against my neck. She'd been asleep for almost an hour now, her small body heavy with the particular weight of exhausted children."Coffee?"Thomas's voice. Low. Careful. He was holding a paper cup, steam rising from the surface.I shook my head.He sat down anyway. Not next to me—there wasn't room, with Madison sprawled across half the couch—but close. Close enough that I could smell the coffee, dark and bitter, cutting through the nothing-smell of the hospital air."You should eat something," he said."I'm fine."He didn't respond. Just sat there, holding his coffe

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 498 Before

    Mia's POVI didn't sleep.I tried. For the first hour, I lay in bed and stared at the ceiling and told myself that sleep would come.It didn't.So I got up. Made tea. Let it go cold on the counter. Made another cup. Let that one go cold too. I cleaned the kitchen even though it was already clean. I folded laundry that didn't need folding. I sat on the couch with Gas's head in my lap, her pregnant belly rising and falling with each breath, and I watched the numbers on my phone change.3:47. 3:48. 3:49.It came anyway.The light crept through the curtains, gray at first, then that pale gold that means the day has started whether you're ready or not. I watched it happen. Watched the room transform from dark to light, shadow to color. My eyes were dry and scratchy from crying, the skin around them tight and swollen. I caught my reflection in the window glass and looked away.Gas lifted her head when I stood up, her dark eyes following me across the room. She'd been restless all night too,
