The unexpected slap

Sarah stared at the unknown number until it stopped ringing.

Nathan was watching her. She could feel it. She set the phone face down on the table and looked up at him and said, ā€œI’ll deal with that later.ā€

He didn’t push. He looked at her for a moment in the way he had been looking at her lately… like he was trying to work something out and wasn’t quite there yet, and then he looked down at Alex who had gone completely slack against his arm, mouth slightly open, fully aslee

  • Triplets for the Cold-Hearted CEO Ā Ā Ā A Reason To Return

    Nathan had read the same paragraph three times without understanding a single word.He lowered the document and leaned back in his chair, staring at the city beyond the glass walls of his office. His mind kept returning to the apartment he had left that afternoon, particularly the sight of Alex laughing with Aria and Adin.It was a sound he rarely heard at home.Alex had always been a quiet child around people he didn't know. Even at family gatherings, he preferred staying close to Nathan or spending time with his toys rather than joining other children. Yet, with Sarah's children, he had behaved as though they had known each other for years.And Sarah...Nathan rubbed his forehead.He still couldn't understand why his son had become so attached to a woman they had only recently met. She had been kind to Alex, certainly, but kindness alone didn't explain the way the boy clung to her or how quickly he had started calling her Mummy.His phone rang, interrupting his thoughts."Yes?""Sir

    "Daddy, are we going to see Mummy today?"Nathan looked at Alex through the rearview mirror. His son had asked the same question three times since breakfast, and judging by the hopeful expression on his face, he wasn't going to stop until he got an answer he liked."We're going to see Sarah," Nathan corrected gently. "And you need to behave when we get there."Alex frowned. "But I always behave!"Nathan raised an eyebrow."Mostly," Alex amended quickly, making his father chuckle despite himself.The truth was, Nathan hadn't needed much convincing to bring him. When Alex had mentioned wanting to visit Sarah again, Nathan had found himself considering the idea longer than necessary. He could have suggested another day or made an excuse about work, but somehow, neither option had appealed to him.He had told himself it was because Alex missed Sarah and the other children. That was a reasonable explanation, and Nathan intended to stick to it.Still, as he turned onto the road leading to S

  • Triplets for the Cold-Hearted CEO Ā Ā Ā The Final Truth

    Chapter Forty-SevenJane stared at the court officers approaching her, unable to accept that she had just been sentenced to five years in prison. Her eyes immediately found Emma, who stood beside Mrs. Reed with tears running down her cheeks."Emma, tell them the truth!" Jane shouted desperately. "You know I didn't do this alone!"Emma looked at her in disbelief. "Jane, how can you blame me for your own actions?"For a moment, Jane couldn't speak. Then her face twisted with anger. "Your own actions? You're the one who came up with the plan to destroy Sarah! You promised me everything would go smoothly, and now you're standing there pretending to be innocent!""Enough!" Mrs. Reed snapped, glancing at the reporters watching them. "Do you both want to bring more shame to this family?""Mrs. Reed, please believe me!" Jane pleaded. "Emma is lying!"Mrs. Reed hesitated, but she couldn't bring herself to believe that Emma would deliberately deceive her. "If you have evidence, present it. Don'

    CHAPTER FORTY SIX"What?"Jane's voice came out sharp and disbelieving as she stared at Emma. For a moment, she genuinely thought she had heard wrong, but the tears running down Emma's face and the way she avoided her gaze made her realize that this girl was serious."The authorization letter wasn't handled by me," Emma said through her tears. "Jane told me not to worry about it. She said she had connections and would make sure everything was taken care of. I trusted her because she was helping me."Jane almost choked on her own breath."Emma, what nonsense are you talking about?"Mrs. Reed's expression immediately darkened. The moment she saw Emma crying, her instincts pushed her to protect her daughter-in-law."Jane, enough."Jane turned toward her in disbelief. "Mrs. Reed, she's lying.""And do you have proof of that?" Mrs. Reed asked coldly.Jane opened her mouth but couldn't answer immediately.Emma lowered her head further, her shoulders trembling. "I didn't know the signature w

    IT'S JANEEmma's face turned pale the moment the judge finished speaking.For several seconds, she simply sat there staring at him, her fingers gripping her handbag so tightly that her knuckles turned white. The confidence she had walked into the courtroom was disappearing little by little, replaced by a growing sense of panic she could no longer control."I..." she began, only for her voice to catch in her throat.The entire courtroom was watching her.The reporters sitting in the back had completely forgotten about taking notes. Every pair of eyes was fixed on Emma as they waited for her answer.Beside her, Jane's expression wasn't looking much better. The older woman kept glancing between the judge and the documents on the table as though hoping someone would suddenly announce that there had been a mistake.Unfortunately, nobody did.The judge remained patient for a few moments before repeating the question."Miss Emma, can you explain how this authorization letter came into your p

    IN THE COURTROOM "We will now begin the hearing regarding the plagiarism case against Miss Sarah Irish."The judge's voice echoed through the courtroom and everyone became silent.Emma sat confidently beside Jane, her expression calm and composed. She glanced toward Sarah, waiting to see the fear she expected to find.But Sarah only sat there quietly and that irritated Emma more than she wanted to admit.How could she still remain so calm? She thought to herself, clenching her jaw.The judge looked toward the plaintiff's side."The plaintiff may present their evidence."Emma's lawyer stood immediately. "Your Honor, my client is not the original creator of the design. However, she has received authorization from the original designer to pursue legal action against Miss Sarah Irish."The lawyer opened the file in front of him. "We have submitted the ownership records, the original design documents, and the authorization letter proving that the original creator has given permission for
