MARY'S POV:

The words hung in the air between us, sharp and final, like a blade that had been drawn and would not be sheathed.

"But not yours."

I watched Alistair's face change. The hope that had flickered there moments before drained away, replaced by something colder and something harder. His hands, which had been gripping my arms, loosened slightly. His jaw tightened.

"Not mine?" he repeated. His voice was low, controlled, the voice of someone who was trying very hard to stay calm. "Then who

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   Choosing Myself

    MARY'S POV:​Vesper sniffled loudly, her dark eyes swimming with fresh tears. A single, dramatic tear spilled over her eyelashes and tracked down her pale cheek, catching the harsh light of the room. "But those terrible people outside said such awful things about us," she whimpered, pulling her chin down. "If this whole thing blows up on the news tomorrow, is it not going to ruin your company's reputation?"​"I will take care of the press," Alistair promised her in a quiet, smooth voice that was meant to settle her down. "Just stop crying right now. You are going to ruin your pretty face if you keep making that expression."​Vesper shot him a tiny, playful glare from beneath her wet eyelashes and reached out to tug gently on his jacket sleeve. "I do not look ugly even when I am crying!"​The exchange was sickeningly familiar. It was flirting, plain and simple, full of the sort of easy, comfortable teasing that only exists between two people who have been intimately involved for a very

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   Beyond Forgiveness

    MARY'S POV: ​I watched the expression on her face change second by second. The intense anger that had been driving her all night slowly drained away, replaced by something far worse. It was a look of deep, crushing grief. Her hands began to shake violently, the pages fluttering in her tight grip like dry leaves in a windstorm. Her eyes darted back and forth across the black text, reading the same lines over and over again, as if she were desperately praying that the words would somehow magically change into something else. ​Out of every single person standing in this room, she was taking the news the hardest. ​A deep, dull ache began to rise inside my chest. ​It had absolutely nothing to do with Alistair anymore. I had already accepted the brutal truth that my husband was completely lost to me. The man I had married years ago was long gone, replaced by a cold, selfish stranger who just happened to wear his face. The deep ache in my heart was entirely for Beatrice. This was the wom

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   The Pregnancy Reveal

    MARY'S POV:​The single word hung suspended in the chilled air of the hospital room like an explosive device waiting for the fuse to burn down.​"Congratulations!"​The young nurse’s smile was wide, open, and completely genuine. She was utterly oblivious to the absolute disaster of a situation she had just walked into. She held out a white plastic clipboard, the sheets of paper clipped to it rustling softly in the quiet room. Her eyes were bright with the kind of innocent excitement that usually came with delivering good news to waiting families. Her light blue uniform was neatly pressed, and her plastic hospital badge glittered under the overhead fluorescent lights. She looked as though she had just come straight from a different floor, a happy place where the news of a new life was met with joyful tears, warm hugs, and celebratory phone calls.​She had no idea that she had just stepped directly into a total war zone.​Beatrice stood completely still, staring at the nurse in absolute

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   The Baby Bombshell

    MARY'S POV:Alistair squeezed his eyes shut and pulled his eyebrows together in frustration. His face was pale, and he looked completely exhausted and confused by how fast the night had turned on him. He kept his fists balled up at his sides, his knuckles totally white."Mom, how can you possibly say something so cruel right now?" he asked, his voice strained and angry. "Vesper has millions of fans who care about her. If everyone is suddenly turning their backs on her tonight, there has to be a real reason for it. This is not the time for you to be kicking her while she is down."Beatrice turned her head and stared at her son like he was a total stranger.Her eyes went wide, her mouth set in a hard line, and her body went rigid. I saw the absolute shock on her face as she realized just how far gone her own son really was."Have you completely lost your mind?" she asked, her voice dropping into a hard, dangerous tone. "You are going to regret every single word that just came out of you

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   The Unexpected Twist

    MARY'S POV:A sudden, loud noise boomed out from the main hallway.The heavy sound of security personnel hitting their plastic shields against the wall echoed down the corridor, drowning out my voice. The hospital security team had finally arrived at the fourth floor, their heavy boots stepping firmly on the floor tiles as they barked out loud orders. Within two minutes, the guards began grabbing people by their arms and clearing the room. The blue-haired teenager was pulled backward out the door while still yelling at his phone screen, and the rest of the crowd was pushed out right behind him, their camera lights flickering until the door was cleared.In the rush to empty the space, several glass flower vases and paper food containers sitting on the side tables were knocked onto the floor. Water splashed across the clean tiles, mixing with crushed flower petals and broken glass. A big bundle of red roses sat ruined under a heavy boot print near the wall, and an open lunch box had spi

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   The Hospital Uproar

    MARY'S POV:Even with that one phone smashed on the floor, at least five other people were standing near the door streaming the whole thing live. The bright screens kept flashing, the comment sections kept scrolling, and the video of the fight was already saved online forever. The blue-haired teenager did not even care about his broken phone; he simply reached into his back pocket, pulled out a second device, and pointed it right back at the bed with a huge, victorious grin on his face.The room devolved into pure noise and chaos.People began pushing and shoving against one another near the threshold, their voices rising into an overwhelming wall of sound. The young streamer kept trying to push his way closer to the bed, extending his arm like he was holding a weapon. Alistair threw his shoulder forward to block the doorway, using his body to shield Vesper from the lenses. Behind them, Beatrice was yelling at the top of her voice, though her words were lost in the noise. A helpless n
