Kyle's POV

"You look beautiful."

Because she does look beautiful—standing here in this particular quality of light that streams through the living room windows, wearing that simple blue dress that somehow makes her seem more radiant than any designer gown ever could. Her hair is pulled back loosely, wisps escaping to frame her face in that careless way that looks deliberate but isn't. Her skin is bare of makeup except for a thin sheen of perspiration from the dancing, and it makes her literally glow, catching the afternoon sun like she's made of something more precious than flesh and bone.

Color floods her cheeks immediately. I watch, fascinated, as the blush spreads from the apples of her cheeks upward across her cheekbones, even reaching the delicate tips of her ears which turn a charming shade of pink that reminds me of roses just beginning to open.

"Don't," she says.

    Mia's POVKyle's hand lands on my shoulder. Squeezes.When I look up, his eyes are wet.My mother appears beside us. Her arms wrap around both me and Madison. A three-person hug."My granddaughter," she says. "My official granddaughter."Hugo stands behind her. His hand on her back. Steady.Scarlett is crying. Actually crying. Mascara running down her face. She doesn't even try to hide it.Morton hands her his pocket square. She takes it. Doesn't look at him. But she takes it.Sophie is dabbing at her eyes with a tissue. "This is ridiculous," she announces. "I don't cry at these things. I'm French. We don't cry. We drink champagne and philosophize about the meaninglessness of existence.""You're crying," Thomas observes."I have allergies.""To what?""Emotions."Judge Patterson is smiling. Really smiling. "There are papers to sign. Ms. Williams, if you'll come with me to the clerk's office."I stand. Madison doesn't let go. She wraps her legs around my waist. Clings like a koala."Ca

    Mia's POVJudge Patterson calls the social worker next.Her name is Linda Morrison. She's been assigned to Madison's case since Victoria's arrest.She stands. Walks to the front. Swears to tell the truth."Ms. Morrison," Judge Patterson begins. "You've been overseeing Madison's placement with Ms. Williams. Can you describe your observations?"Linda pulls out a file. "I've conducted five home visits over the past six months. Each time, Madison appeared happy, healthy, and well-cared-for. The home is clean, organized, and safe. Madison has her own bedroom, which she decorated with Ms. Williams's help. She has school supplies, clothing, toys. All her medical needs are being met—she's current on vaccinations, has regular dental checkups, and is seeing a therapist weekly.""What about her relationship with the family?""Excellent. Madison has bonded with Alexander and Ethan. .""And Madison's adjustment?""Better than expected. Initially she had nightmares. Some separation anxiety. Difficu

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 435 You want her to be your mama?

    Mia's POVWe file in.The courtroom is smaller than I expected.Not like the courtrooms on TV. No jury box. No gallery full of people. Just a judge's bench—high, imposing—and a table for us. Chairs. An American flag in the corner. A state flag beside it.Windows on one wall. Tall. The glass is old. Slightly wavy. The light coming through has a golden quality.We take our seats. Madison and me at the table. Kyle beside me. The others fill the chairs behind us.Gas lies down beside Madison's chair. Her head on her paws. Her eyes moving. Watching.A door behind the bench opens.Judge Patterson enters.He's older. Maybe sixty. Glasses. Gray hair receding but neatly trimmed. His robe is black. Freshly pressed. The fabric makes a soft rustling sound as he moves.He sits. Arranges papers on his desk. Picks up a pen. Sets it down. Picks up another pen.Then he looks up.His eyes find Madison first. He smiles. It's warm. Real."You must be Madison."She nods. Doesn't speak."I'm Judge Patterso

    Mia's POVThe courthouse steps are wider than I remember.Gray granite. Each step slightly worn in the center where thousands of feet have walked over decades. The wearing makes a gentle dip. Like a shallow bowl.Madison stops at the bottom step.Her hand squeezes mine. Three times. Quick pulses."Hey," I say quietly. "We're okay."She nods but doesn't move.Behind us, the others are getting out of cars. Morton's black SUV. Thomas's sedan. Sophie arrived in something red and expensive that probably costs more than most people's houses.Gas is pulling on her leash. Alexander is holding the other end, letting himself be dragged forward."Gas wants to go in!" Alexander announces. "She's excited!""The dog is not excited," Ethan says. "The dog smells something. Probably food. There's always food at courthouses because people have to wait a long time and they get hungry.""How do you know that?""I read about it.""You read about people being hungry at courthouses?""I read about a lot of

    Mia's POV"Walk!" I call after him, but he's not walking. He's definitely not walking. He's moving at that particular velocity that's not quite running but definitely not walking either, that in-between speed that kids somehow perfect.I hear the door open.Scarlett appears first. She's wearing a beautiful dress—emerald green silk that moves like water.Morton follows behind her, and the space between them is too big. He tries to reach for her elbow as they cross the threshold.She pulls away.His face does something—hurt and resignation all mixed together—and his hand drops back to his side.Intersting."Morning," Scarlett says, and her voice is bright. She's holding flowers—pink roses and baby's breath tied with white ribbon—and she crosses to Madison, kneeling down despite her dress and her heels. "These are for you, sweetheart. For after. For your special day.""For me?" Madison takes the bouquet carefully, like it might break."For you. Because today you become official.""Thank

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 432 Today

    Mia's POVThe dress hangs on the back of my bedroom door, swaying slightly in the draft from the heating vent that never quite closes properly. Navy blue. Simple. The kind of dress that says "I'm taking this seriously" without screaming "I'm trying too hard."I bought it three weeks ago at Nordstrom, spent twenty minutes in the fitting room staring at myself from different angles, then bought it. Returned it two days later because it felt too formal. Then bought it again last week because everything else I tried on felt wrong.My hands are shaking as I reach for the zipper. Not a lot. Just enough that when my fingers first touch the metal pull, they slide off and I have to try again, catching it on the second attempt and pulling it up slowly. The sound of metal teeth meeting fills the quiet room, and I can hear my own breathing underneath it, slightly too fast, slightly too shallow.Through the wall, I can hear Alexander's voice, high and excited and talking so fast the words blur tog
