Mia's POV

My world tilted on its axis as I stared at the medical report in my trembling hands. This couldn't be right. The dates, the details - everything was wrong. Three months? That was impossible. I'd only discovered my pregnancy two weeks ago. The black text seemed to swim before my eyes, each word a fresh blow to my racing heart.

The study felt smaller somehow, the walls closing in as Kyle's presence loomed larger than life. The lamp on his desk cast shadows across his face, making his expression even more terrifying. I could hear my own shallow breathing in the thick silence.

"Kyle," I whispered, my voice barely audible in the thick tension of his study. "This isn't... this can't be..."

"Can't be what?" His voice cut through the air like steel, each word precise and deadly. "Can't be true? Can't be discovered?" He stood behind his desk, shoulders rigid, knuckles white where they gripped the polished wood. The veins in his hands stood out, betraying his barely contained r

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 479 Single Lady

    Mia's POV"YOU'RE AT A CLUB!" Alexander shrieks. The camera shakes with his excitement. "MAMA'S AT A CLUB! MAMA'S AT A CLUB!""Alexander, quiet—"But he's already spinning. Already running. The camera becomes a blur of motion—floor, wall, doorway, the edge of a cabinet, Kyle's bare feet on the tile, Kyle's gray sweatpants, Kyle's back getting closer and closer—"DADDY! DADDY! GUESS WHAT!"No no no no no—"MAMA'S AT A CLUB! A REAL CLUB! WITH DANCING MUSIC! AND PRETTY BOYS!"I'm going to kill my dear Alexander.The camera steadies. Kyle has turned from the stove. The spatula frozen mid-air. Batter dripping back into the pan in slow, deliberate drops. There's flour on his cheekbone—a white smear against his jaw like war paint. His gray t-shirt is slightly damp at the collar. His hair is pushed back from his forehead, messy in that way that suggests small hands have been grabbing at it all evening.He looks domestic. Soft. Nothing like the CEO in tailored suits who commands boardrooms and

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 478 MAMA'S AT A CLUB

    Mia's POVMy phone buzzes in my clutch.The vibration travels through the leather, through my thigh, demanding attention. I pull it out. The screen is too bright in the dim VIP section, a rectangle of harsh white light in all this careful purple and pink and blue.Alexander (video call)My stomach drops.Guilt. Immediate and irrational. Like being caught with my hand in a cookie jar, except the cookie jar is a nightclub and the hand is my entire body in a dress that costs more than my children's monthly daycare."Drink this," Marcos says, appearing at my elbow with a shot glass. The liquid inside is amber, glowing like something molten in the shifting lights. "Daniel's special."I take it without thinking. My other hand is fumbling with the phone, trying to silence the buzzing, trying to buy myself time. The shot glass is cold against my palm. The phone keeps vibrating."You gonna answer that?" Tyler asks. He's leaning back, watching me with those blue eyes. Amused.I down the shot.T

    Mia's POV"Anyway." Daniel stands. Straightens his shirt. The fabric falls perfectly, because of course it does. "I need to check on things downstairs. Make sure the staff isn't burning the place down. But—" He points at all three of us. His finger catches the light—purple, then blue, then pink. "—you're staying. I'm sending up champagne. The good stuff. And—"He pauses. A smile spreading across his face. Slow. Deliberate. The kind of smile that suggests mischief."Actually, I have a better idea.""What kind of idea?" Scarlett asks suspiciously. She's leaning forward now, her arms crossed on the table, her chin resting on her forearms."The kind that involves attractive young men who are paid to be charming." He's already pulling out his phone. The screen lights up his face from below, making him look almost demonic for a second before the VIP lights take over again. He's texting someone. "I'm sending up some of my VIP hosts. The pretty ones. To keep you company.""Daniel—" I start."

    Mia's POV"Is Sophie about to seduce your friend?" she whispers. Her breath is warm against my ear. Close enough that I can smell the cranberry on her lips."It looks that way.""Should we stop her?""Can anyone stop Sophie?""Fair point."Sophie has released Daniel's hand finally. She's sitting down now. In the seat next to him. Closer than strictly nChapter 475 The Divorced Women Energyecessary. Her thigh almost touching his. The leather booth curves around them, creating an intimate half-circle that separates them from the rest of the VIP section."So," she says. Her voice has dropped. Gone smokier. The words almost lost in the pulse of the bass. "You own this place?""Co-own. My business partner handles the boring parts.""And what parts do you handle?"The question hangs there. Loaded. The lights shift again—purple to blue to pink—and Daniel's face cycles through colors like he's in a dream. His smile widens. The expression is different now. Less practiced. More genuine."The fun

  • The Unwanted Wife and Her Secret Twins   Chapter 475 A CLUB NIGHT

    Mia's POVDaniel is still staring at me. His mouth slightly open. The whiskey Sasha brought him sits untouched on the table, the amber liquid catching the purple neon light from the ceiling, turning it into something that looks like liquid amethyst."Wait," he says finally. "Wait wait wait. Back up. Pregnant with twins? From a CLUB NIGHT?""Yes.""The twins. Alexander and Ethan. Those twins?""Those are the only twins I have, Daniel.""Oh my GOD." He leans back against the leather booth. The material creaks under him, that expensive sound of real leather being tested. He presses both hands to his face. His rings catch the light—three of them, silver and gold and something with a small diamond. "Oh my GOD. This is—this is like a MOVIE. This is like a terrible Lifetime movie that I would absolutely watch.""It wasn't that dramatic.""You got PREGNANT. From a CLUB NIGHT. With TWINS. That is the DEFINITION of dramatic."I take a sip of my sparkling water. The bubbles are going flat alread

    Mia's POV "OH. MY. GOD."Each word is its own sentence. Its own dramatic beat.I turn.And there he is.Daniel.He's frozen in the middle of the dance floor. One hand pressed to his chest like he's been shot. The other hand extended toward me, fingers splayed, like he's trying to stop traffic."STOP," he says. Louder now. "EVERYONE STOP. I need a MOMENT."People are actually turning to look. He's causing a scene. He doesn't seem to notice. Or care."Daniel—""NO." He holds up his hand. "Don't speak. Don't move. Let me LOOK at you."He does. He stands there, in the middle of the dance floor, and looks at me. His eyes moving slowly. Taking inventory.Then he SHRIEKS.Actually shrieks. High-pitched and delighted and entirely too loud."MAMI." He's moving toward me now. Not walking. Strutting. Each step deliberate. Performative. His hips doing something that suggests choreography. "Mami, mami, MAMI. That DRESS. That DRESS.""It's Sophie's—""I don't CARE whose it is. I care that it's on
