The Wife He Never Wanted Chapter forty four
I sat on the edge of the bed and took his cold hand in both of mine. The machines were beeping slower now. His face was gray and his eyes kept drifting shut like he was fighting to stay with me.“Tell me,” I whispered. My voice sounded raw. “Whatever it is, just say it before it is too late.”He opened his eyes and looked straight at me. For the first time I saw no walls left. Just a man who knew he was running out of time.“The biggest secret,” he said, each word slow and heavy, “is that I have been dying for almost a year. Cancer. The doctors gave me maybe eighteen months when they found it. The bullet just sped everything up. I was trying to fix every single thing before I left you and the kids. That is why I lied. That is why I hid Lucas. That is why I kept the divorce papers from being filed. I thought if I could clean up the mess I made, if I could protect you all from the partner and from my own family’s old deals, then maybe I could die knowing I had finally been the man you d
The Wife He Never Wanted Chapter forty three
The flatline sound cut through the room like a knife. Doctors and nurses moved fast around Damien’s bed. Someone shouted for the crash cart. Someone else pushed me gently but firmly out of the room again.I stood in the hallway with my back against the cold wall. My legs gave out. I slid down until I was sitting on the floor. Sophia dropped beside me and wrapped her arms around me. I could not cry anymore. The tears had dried up. All that was left was a hollow ache in my chest.Minutes felt like hours.Then the doctor came out. His face was exhausted. He looked at me with careful eyes.“We got him back,” he said. “He is stable for now. But he is very weak. The next twenty four hours are still critical. You can sit with him if you want.”I stood up on shaky legs. Sophia helped me. I walked back into the room.Damien was awake again. Barely. His eyes found mine the moment I stepped inside. They were full of pain and something deeper. Something like goodbye.“Lila…” His voice was so weak

I stood outside the ICU room with my hand on the door. My legs would not move. Sophia stood beside me, one arm around my shoulders. Mia sat on a chair down the hall with Lucas asleep in her lap. The little boy looked so peaceful. So innocent. He had no idea his whole world was falling apart too.The doctor waited patiently. “He is asking for you. His vitals are dropping. If you want to see him…”I nodded. I had to.I walked in alone.Damien looked even smaller than before. His skin was gray. The machines beeped slower now. He turned his head when he heard me. His eyes were full of pain and regret.“Lila…” His voice was so weak. “Come here. Please.”I sat on the edge of the bed and took his hand. It was cold. Too cold.“I am here,” I whispered. Tears fell onto the white sheets. “I am right here.”He squeezed my hand with what little strength he had left. “The boy… Lucas… he is mine. I cannot lie anymore. It happened before I really changed. Before I understood what I had with you. I wa

The room went completely silent except for the beeping machines.Mia stood there holding the little boy’s hand. Lucas looked up at Damien with big grey eyes that were heartbreakingly familiar.“Daddy?” the boy said again, his voice small and hopeful.Damien’s face went white. The heart monitor started beeping faster. “Mia… What are you doing here? I told you never to come.”Mia’s eyes filled with tears. She looked at me, then back at him. “He deserves to know his father. I am tired of hiding. Tired of the lies. You promised me you would leave her. You promised you would choose us.”I felt like the floor had disappeared under my feet. I grabbed the edge of the bed to stay upright.“You have a son,” I whispered. My voice sounded like it belonged to someone else. “You have another family. While I was fighting for us. While I was giving you chance after chance. You had this whole other life.”Damien tried to sit up. Pain flashed across his face. “Lila, please. It is not like that. Lucas…

The hospital lights were too bright. They hurt my eyes. I sat beside Damien’s bed in the ICU, still wearing the same blood-stained clothes from the alley. My hands were raw from washing them over and over, but I could still see the red under my fingernails.He looked so still. So broken. Machines beeped steadily around him, keeping him alive. The doctor had said the next few hours were critical. One bullet had grazed his heart. Another had torn through his side. They had done everything they could.I held his hand. It was cold.“I hate you right now,” I whispered. My voice cracked. “I hate that you lied again. I hate that I let myself believe you this time. But I still love you. God help me, I still love you. So you better fight. You better come back to me and our children.”A nurse came in quietly to check the monitors. She gave me a small, sympathetic smile. “Talking to him helps. He can hear you, even if he can’t respond yet.”I nodded. When she left, I leaned closer to Damien.“I
The Wife He Never Wanted Chapter thirty nine
Everything went black for only a second.The gunshot rang out loud between the warehouses. I waited for the pain. For the darkness. For it all to end right there on the cold ground with Damien’s blood on my hands.It never came.Instead the man with the gun dropped like a stone. A red stain spread fast across his chest. Behind him stood Sophia. She held a gun with both hands, her arms shaking so hard I thought she might drop it. Her face was pale. Her eyes wide with shock.“I followed you,” she whispered. Her voice cracked. “I could not let you face this alone. I could not…”I crawled to Damien. He was still breathing but barely. Shallow, wet gasps. Blood bubbled at the corner of his mouth. I pressed my hands against the wound on his chest. Warm blood kept coming. Too much blood.“Damien,” I sobbed. “Stay with me. Please. You do not get to do this. You do not get to leave me after everything. Not now. Not like this.”His eyes fluttered open. “Lila… I am sorry… for all of it… I love yo
