I leaned back against the headboard, the phone pressed against my ear. The silence from Thomas’s end made me more anxious by the second.

“Sallie, Andrew is claiming part of the company,” Thomas said, his voice taking on a serious, professional tone. “He filed a formal claim an hour ago.”

A bitter laugh escaped my lips. “On what grounds? He stole it from me. I had the legal right to take it back, and we both know it.”

“He isn't denying that you started the company or provided the initial funds,”

  • The Wife He underestimated    Secrets of Andrew Evans

    I gripped the phone, trying to make sense of what Rachel had just told me. I even started pacing."Rachel, think carefully," I said. "Describe him to me again.""Sallie, I already told you—""I know, but I need you to be sure. Are you saying he looked exactly like Andrew? The same face, hairstyle, build? Everything?""Yes. Everything.""Not just someone who looked like him?""No, Sallie. I know your husband. I've worked with him for years. I've seen him almost every week." She paused. "The man behind that glass partition had the same sharp jawline, the same dark hair, even the same broad shoulders. I wouldn't have thought twice about it being Andrew if I hadn't seen the real Andrew arrive at the building."I stopped pacing."Wait. You saw Andrew arrive?""Yes. He came in from the parking garage with his client. That's why I know I'm not mistaken. There were two men who looked exactly alike in that building."I rubbed my forehead."An identical twin?" I asked, more to myself than to he

  • The Wife He underestimated    What do you mean?

    I closed my eyes and let out a tired sigh. There was a pause on the other end of the line. I waited, but she didn't speak immediately.Whatever she was about to tell me, I had a feeling it wasn't going to make my evening any easier.“Sallie, Andrew has been telling everyone his own version of what happened,” Rachel said, her voice dripping with pure frustration. “He’s spinning this whole story to all your mutual friends, your old neighbors, and basically every business contact who will listen. He’s telling them that you abandoned the marriage out of nowhere. "According to him, you packed up Kelly and ran away in the middle of the night without giving him a single warning or a chance to talk. She continued, "He’s acting like he was left completely in the dark, a tragic figure forced to handle all the emotional and legal consequences by himself.”I felt a familiar anger settle over me. My fingers tightened around the phone as I listened.Andrew had always known how to make himself

He stole it from me. I had the legal right to take it back, and we both know it.”“He isn't denying that you started the company or provided the initial funds,” Thomas explained. I heard papers rustling on his end. “His argument is that you provided the capital, but he was the one who built the business into what it is today." he continued."He's claiming that his work, his management, and the decisions he made contributed to the company's growth. He's demanding a significant share or a substantial payout.”“He's insane,” I snapped. “He cheated, he lied, he ruined our marriage, and now he wants to take away my livelihood too?”“It gets worse,” Thomas

    I looked at the screen. It was an unknown number, and it wasn’t a WhatsApp call—just a direct, regular ring.I slid the icon to answer and pressed the phone to my ear. “Hello?”“Sallie.”The voice made my stomach drop instantly.“How did you get this number?” I demanded, my grip tightening on the phone. “I changed it before I left.”“Did you really think a new number would stop me from finding my wife and daughter?” Andrew asked, his voice entirely too calm. “You took Kelly and ran to another country, Sallie. Don’t you think that’s a bit dramatic?”“Dramatic?” I echoed, a bitter laugh escaping my throat. “I left a cheating husband, Andrew. There’s nothing dramatic about getting away from you.”“I’m tired of hearing about that,” he said, his tone shifting into genuine irritation. “Most importantly, I need you to look at the bigger picture. I provided for you. I treated you and our daughter well." he paused, I could hear him pacing from the other end. "I gave you a comfortable, luxury

  • The Wife He underestimated    Starting afresh

    I was still trying to figure out where I had seen him before when Kelly returned to my side, dragging Jane along with her."Mom, can Jane come with us?" she asked excitedly.I blinked at her. "Come with us where?""To our house! We just got here, and we haven't even had time to hang out properly."I looked at Jane, who smiled at me hopefully before glancing back at her father."Daddy, can I go with Kelly? Please?"The man looked at his daughter, then turned his attention to me."I'm sorry about this. Jane has been talking about meeting Kelly in person for months. I didn't realise they'd become this close.""It's fine," I assured him. "They seem to get along well.""Very well," he agreed, looking at the girls, who had already started whispering to each other again.He held out his hand."By the way, I'm Alexander."I hesitated briefly before accepting his hand. "Sallie.""I know."His response came so quickly that I stared at him.He seemed to realise what he'd said because he smiled a

  • The Wife He underestimated    New beginning

    The airport was busier than I expected, with people hurrying in different directions, suitcases rolling behind them and announcements coming from the speakers overhead.I kept one hand on my luggage and the other around Kelly's, making sure she stayed close as we walked towards the departure hall.She was practically engrossed in her book. I took a minute to glance at her and didn't notice the man coming towards me until we collided."Oh, sorry!" I said immediately, stepping back.He caught his balance, his hand briefly touching my arm to steady me before he let go."It's fine," he replied.I looked up to apologise properly, but I paused when I saw his face.He was handsome, with dark hair, a well-defined face and eyes that seemed unusually familiar. For a moment, I forgot what I was about to say.Get a grip, Sallie. I was leaving one man behind, not looking for another one to admire. Besides, this man looked far too young for me. I wasn't old, but I knew my age, and I was certain I
