The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) The Manipulation
MARY'S POV:Alistair's face remained ghostly pale, his strong jaw clamped shut tight. He looked exactly like a cornered man who had completely run out of good options to protect his public image. However, the cold calculation never once left his eyes. He was always thinking ahead, always planning his next move, and constantly finding a way to twist every bad situation to his own advantage. Even now, with his own mother standing face-to-face with him in total confrontation, his mind was actively searching for a new angle to exploit."Mom, I know you are extremely angry with me right now," he spoke up, his voice dropping into a smooth, entirely reasonable tone. "But you have to remember that there is an innocent unborn child involved in this situation who will be severely hurt by the public scandal. I am simply trying my best to find the only logical solution to protect everyone involved. All I am asking is for Mary to step forward and acknowledge the open marriage agreement publicly.
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) The Cruel Choice
MARY'S POV:The person who had just opened the door and walked into the grand entryway was Beatrice.She stood frozen in the doorway, her silhouette framed by the dim, quiet light of the foyer, her pale face completely flushed with barely contained fury. Her hands were entirely full as she stood there, heavy shopping bags from the market, her expensive leather handbag, and a warm container of homemade food she had carried all the way to our home. She slammed everything down onto the polished entryway table with a resounding crash that echoed almost loudly through the quiet, empty rooms of the house.The sharp sound was violent, and intimidating sudden noise that made you flinch in surprise even when you were not the direct target of the anger. I stood silently in the living room and watched her stride inside with long steps, her high heels clicking loudly against the floor, her dark eyes blazing with pure righteous anger. Her long winter coat was still wrapped around her body, her
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) His Cruel Bargain
MARY'S POV:The huge house looked completely unchanged when the car finally pulled up to the front entrance. It was the exact same house where I had cried myself to sleep night after night. The same house where I had first discovered his disgusting betrayal. The same house where I had been locked out in the cold, locked inside rooms, and completely hidden away from the world. The same awful place where I had been treated like a paid servant, and like an inconvenient person who did not matter at all. I opened the front door and stepped inside and just as I had anticipated, Alistair was sitting right there waiting for my arrival. He was sitting comfortably on the dark sofa in the living room, his long legs crossed, holding a low glass of dark whiskey in his right hand. The amber liquid caught the dim light, swirling gently around the glass as his hand moved. He looked up the exact second I stepped into the room, his dark eyes sweeping over my body from head to toe, carefully assess
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) A Mother's Choice
MARY'S POV:"Precisely." Marl offered me a sharp, extremely satisfied smile. "You just have to remain patient through the whole process. Let him do all the talking. Let him explain his foolish thoughts. Let him dig himself deeper and deeper into his own pit. And by the time he is completely done boasting, you will hold every single piece of evidence you could ever need to crush him."Standing there, I thought deeply about my little girl Elowen. I pictured her soft face, her hopeful eyes, and the way she had promised me earlier that she would be brave for her mommy. I had to actively fight off the strong urge to pick up my phone and call her line again. I had already called her twice tonight, and every single time I heard her small voice through the speaker, my heart had ached with deep pain.My daughter was far too sensible for a child her age. She did not cry loudly into the phone or ask me complicated questions about why I was not home. She simply kept repeating in her quiet voic
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) The Setup
MARY'S POV:I stood in the warm light of the kitchen and saw Marl give his phone a completely speechless look.His facial expression was settled somewhere right between amused laughter and total disbelief, his dark eyebrows raised high up on his forehead, his lips pressed tightly together in a thin, straight line. He just stared down at his phone screen as if the device had somehow told him something completely absurd, something so crazy that he could not even process it properly in his head. The soft green glow of the lit screen cast subtle shadows across his sharp features, making him look almost mischievous in the room.I looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "What happened over there? Was that your client speaking?"Marl slowly looked up at me, a strange, sharp glint dancing in his eyes. "That was my most difficult client of all, Alistair. It seems he has somehow managed to come up with another terrible idea, and I am genuinely afraid that I might have just accide
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) The Open Marriage
MARL'S POV:Mary patted my back, and I cleared my throat, stepping back."You're not treating me like your daughter, are you?" I asked, my voice light and teasing.Mary lightly smacked my back before letting go. "Don't be ridiculous. My daughter is much better behaved than you."I laughed, the sound was so genuine. "I'm offended.""You'll survive."We stood there for a moment, the tension between us shifting into something lighter, easier. I could feel the warmth of her presence still lingering and her embrace still imprinted on my skin. I wanted to stay in that moment, to freeze it and hold onto it forever.But I couldn't.I had work to do. Alistair was still on the phone.When I returned to the living room, Alistair was surprisingly still on the other end of the line.I had left my phone sitting on the table with the call active, leaving him talking to empty air, but he had apparently spent the last ten minutes rambling to himself in frustration. His voice drifted faintly t
