The billionaire ex-wife: we have a child Chapter 41
Ethan Carter POVSummer came slowly.Serena grew the way babies grow very fast, and it surprised us every time. One week she only slept, ate, cried sometimes, and looked at the world like she was not sure about it. The next week she was looking at people’s faces with her big dark eyes, reaching for things with her tiny hands, and smiling.Her smile looked so much like Aria’s smile that the first time I really saw it, I had to sit down.“She smiled at me,” I told Aria. She was in the kitchen making tea like nothing big had happened.“She’s been smiling for a week,” Aria said.“Not like that.”Aria looked at me over her cup. “Like what?”“Like she knew what she was doing,” I said. “Like she knew I needed that smile.”Aria smiled softly. “She's Carter,” she said. “Of course she knows what she’s doing.”Mason was sitting at the kitchen table eating cereal and listening to us like he always listened to grown-up talks. He looked up.“I smiled early too,” he said. “Mommy told me.”“You did,”

Aria Bennett POVWe brought Serena home on a Thursday.Mason spent the two days while we were in the hospital changing what was most important to him, with the focus of someone getting ready for a big mission. By the time we walked through the front door, he had put his stuffed dinosaurs in a circle around the baby bed “so she has friends when she wakes up,” drew three different welcome pictures and taped them to the wall above it, and checked every corner of the baby room for what he called “suspicious things,” which looked like dust.“All clear,” he said when we walked in, looking very happy with the good job he had done.“Thank you, Mas,” I said, gently putting Serena into the baby bed and fixing the blanket around her.“You’re welcome.” He looked at her. “She’s sleeping again.”“Babies sleep a lot,” Ethan said, standing behind him.“How much?”“Most of the time.”Mason looked a little disappointed. “When does she start doing things?”“Give her a few months,” I said.“That’s a lon

Ethan Carter POVApril came much faster than we thought.One morning, Aria was slowly walking around the kitchen because she was very pregnant. She kept saying she was “perfectly fine” and “not uncomfortable at all,” but she also wouldn’t let anyone carry anything for her.Then, before we knew it, we were in the hospital at two in the morning. Aria was holding my hand very tightly while she breathed through her labor pains. She stayed calm and focused, just like she always did with everything in life.“You’re doing great,” I said.“Don’t talk,” she said nicely. “Just hold my hand and stay quiet.”“Okay.”“And stop looking at me like that.”“Like what?”“Like you’re scared. You’re making me nervous.”“I’m not scared.”She looked at me.“I’m a little scared,” I admitted.“Better,” she said. “It’s better when you’re honest.”Harper got to our house only twenty minutes after Aria called her. She looked a little shocked, but she stayed calm and quickly took care of Mason so he would be ok

Aria Bennett’s POV Our honeymoon lasted only four days.It wasn’t because we didn’t have money. Ethan said we could go anywhere in the world. He had become very kind and generous.But neither of us wanted to stay away from Mason for too long. He was only four years old. He had been kidnapped not long ago, and sometimes he still woke up from scary dreams. Being there for him was more important than any beautiful beach.So we went to a small town by the sea, about three hours from the city. It was quiet and peaceful. Every morning smelled like the ocean and fresh coffee, and nobody bothered us.Every evening, we called Mason.Both times, he didn’t seem to miss us much because he was having so much fun with my dad and Vivian.On the first day, they baked together.On the second day, they went to an aquarium. Mason spent 45 minutes telling us about every fish he saw and one funny crab called Gerald the Second.“He’s okay,” Ethan said after we ended the call on the second night. We were s

Ethan Carter POVSpring arrived quietly.The garden behind Richard’s house transformed slowly over the weeks leading up to the wedding Vivian’s doing, mostly, working alongside a florist with a focus that seemed to channel every bit of guilt and love she had nowhere else to put. White roses climbed the back wall where someone had once stood in the dark and taken a photograph of my sleeping son. I noticed it every time I walked through the garden and felt something settle further.The past couldn’t be undone. But it could be covered over, slowly, with something better.The morning of the wedding, I stood in Richard’s study in my suit while Oliver straightened my tie with the careful precision of someone who had decided to earn his place in this circle through sheer consistent effort.“You’re nervous,” he observed.“I’m not nervous.”“You’ve checked your inside pocket four times since I walked in.”“I’m making sure the rings are there.”“You put them there yourself twenty minutes ago.

Aria Bennett POVMason’s reaction to the engagement was exactly what Ethan predicted.“Can I carry the rings AND be the boss of the wedding?” he asked the next morning, examining my ring finger with intense scrutiny over his cereal.“There’s no ‘boss of the wedding,’ baby.”“There should be.”“I’ll think about it,” I said, which he accepted as a victory, going back to his cereal with satisfied purpose.Harper’s reaction, when I called her, involved a scream loud enough that I had to hold the phone away from my ear.“SHOW ME THE RING. RIGHT NOW. FACETIME ME IMMEDIATELY.”I did. She screamed again.“Aria. Aria, this is the most perfect ring I have ever seen in my entire life. I’m sobbing. I’m actually sobbing right now.”“You’re laughing, not sobbing.”“It’s both. It’s a complicated emotional response.” She wiped at her eyes, still grinning. “When’s the wedding? Please say soon. Please say I get to help plan something.”“We haven’t decided anything yet. We literally got engaged last nig

“Mummy!”“Mummy!”“Mummy!”A Little hands shook me as a small voice filled the quiet of the room.“Wake up! Wake up! It’s my first day of school!”My eyes flew open at his words.I blinked several times, rubbing the sleep from my eyes before glancing down at the little boy grinning at me. Mason stoo

The clouds drifted past the window as the plane dipped inside, the skyline of the city slowly unfolding beneath us. My stomach knot, not from the landing but from everything that waited for me down there.Yesterday felt like a movie. After leaving with Mason, I found myself back at the house, relie
