Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 14- MISSED MOMENTS
Our son kept growing. His father kept missing it.I was on the nursery floor with Luca between my legs when it happened.He'd been working at it for a few minutes — that focused, determined rocking that meant something was coming, and I had my phone ready, because I'd learned that milestones didn't wait for you to find a good angle."Come on, baby," I said quietly.He made a small, concentrated sound. Rocked forward. Rocked back. His whole face scrunched up with the effort of it.Then he rolled — clean over, stomach to back, completely on his own."Oh my God." I screamed with joy.Luca blinked up at me, took a moment to process what had just happened, and then laughed — that short, delighted laugh of his, like he'd surprised even himself. I scooped him up immediately and kissed both cheeks, his forehead, the tip of his nose, his forehead again because once wasn't enough."You absolute clever boy."For one bright, uncomplicated moment, everything else disappeared. The distance. The a
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 13- THE WRONG PERSON
The realization followed me everywhere. Into the nursery while I changed Luca. Into the kitchen while the coffee brewed. Dominic had talked to Celeste about our marriage. That irritated the hell out of me.Maybe not everything. Maybe not the 3am feeds I'd done alone, or the dinners that went cold, or the particular silence of a bed where one person was asleep and the other was lying awake trying to understand what had happened to them. But enough for her comments to land with that specific, practiced accuracy. Enough for that calm, knowing smile to make complete sense now that I understood where it came from.I had spent weeks telling myself I was imagining things.The worst part about being right was that it didn't feel like a victory. It just felt like the floor had been there all along, and I had finally stopped hovering above it.Luca kicked his feet as I lifted him from the changing table, unbothered and delighted, the way only babies can be."At least one man in this house is
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 12- ALWAYS WORK
Celeste glanced between us. For the first time since she'd arrived, she looked like she wanted to be somewhere else."I should go upstairs," she said quietly."Good idea," I said.She looked at Dominic once — just once, a look I couldn't fully read, then walked toward the guest room. I waited until I heard her door click shut before I turned back to my husband.The silence between us had weight. He loosened his tie, slow and deliberate, like he was buying himself a few seconds. "Amara—"I held up my phone. "The dinner." His jaw tightened. "I know.""You knew about it." I kept my voice level, which cost me more than it should have. "And you cancelled twenty minutes before we were supposed to leave.""Something important came up."I laughed — a short, hollow sound that surprised even me, because there was nothing funny about it. "Something important always comes up, Dominic.""That's not it Amara." He said."No?" I crossed my arms, a small, instinctive gesture, like bracing for impact.
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 11- THE THING HE DIDN'T SAY
I barely slept after Diana's call. Long after we hung up I sat in the dark living room turning the same sentence over and over like something I couldn't put down.“Someone connected to that company specifically requested information about you.” Diana's words kept coming back.Not Dominic or the merger. Me.I reached for explanations the way you reach for something in the dark — blindly, hoping. Maybe Diana had misread it. Maybe there was a simple reason that would make all of it collapse into nothing.But every time I'd convinced myself I was overreacting, something happened to prove I wasn't. I had stopped trusting the voice that said ‘you're imagining this.’ That voice had been wrong too many times.By morning my head ached and I was no closer to solid ground.Dominic was at the island when I came downstairs — tablet already in hand, already somewhere else. He glanced up."Morning.""Morning." I said.No kiss, no asking how I slept or how I'm feeling. Nothing that acknowledged I wa
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 10- THE CONNECTION
The problem wasn't who Celeste worked for. It was who was behind her. The phone rang just after midnight. I was still awake — sitting in the dim living room with the baby monitor on the cushion beside me, Luca's soft breathing the only thing keeping the silence from feeling completely suffocating. When Diana's name lit up the screen I answered immediately, because Diana didn't call at midnight for nothing. What I wasn't ready for was the way she sounded. Not her usual brisk, get-to-the-point self. She was careful and controlled. Like someone carrying something fragile and walking slowly. "Diana," I said quietly. "What did you find?" "I checked Celeste's company," she said. "Then I checked it again from a different angle. Then I checked it a third time because I didn't trust what I was seeing the first two." Something cold moved through my chest. "And?" "It's not what it looks like on the surface." I leaned forward, pulling my knees in slightly without noticing. "She said it w
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 9- WATCHING QUIETLY
I stopped defending myself and started paying attention. It happened without announcement, without a conscious decision I could point to. Just a morning where the exhausting work of explaining myself to people who had already made up their minds felt suddenly, completely pointless. Like trying to fill a container with a hole in the bottom — effort, and effort, and nothing held. So I stopped. And the moment I did, everything sharpened. Dominic left early again. He barely looked up from his phone while Luca reached toward him with both hands — that open, hopeful reaching that asked for something so simple and never quite got it. "Dada," Luca babbled. Dominic paused. Glanced down. Produced a smile that didn't travel past his mouth. "Busy today," he said, and he was already walking before the sentence was finished. I watched him go and said nothing. That moment should have hurt less by now. It didn't. It landed in the same quiet place it always did, like a stone dropped into sti
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 7- A WOMAN'S INSTINCT
The doorbell rang just as Luca finally drifted off. I checked the camera on my phone — eyes closed, fists loosened, fully gone, and crossed the apartment before the bell could ring again. Nina swept in with two shopping bags and enough energy to power the building. "Tell me you haven't been cryi
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 3- JUST A COLLEAGUE
Every time I closed my eyes I saw that name, glowing on a dark screen, sharp as a paper cut. Celeste Vane. A name I had never heard in my life. A name that shouldn't have mattered at all. And yet it sat in my chest all night, refusing to leave. By three in the morning Dominic was asleep beside me
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 2- THE NAME ON THE SCREEN
The ridiculous thing was, I couldn't even prove he had deleted a message. . I stood in the kitchen with my phone in my hand, staring at the same conversation for the hundredth time. Four months ago, I was worrying about labor and feeding schedules. Now I was standing in a kitchen worth more than
Too Late Mr SINCLAIR CHAPTER 1- THE SECOND CUP
I poured two cups of coffee that morning as always. One for me, one for my husband. He stopped touching my coffee for months now. But I kept making it anyway. A part of me was still waiting for the version of him who used to drink it standing right behind me, one hand on my waist, complaining that
