CAMDEN

I felt my blood boil the second those words left the stranger’s mouth.

I let go of Daisy’s hand immediately and stepped forward, positioning myself between her and the intruder. My shoulders squared, and my jaw tight.

“Who the hell are you?” I demanded, voice low and dangerous as I moved closer to him. “And why exactly do you want to see my mother at this hour, in my house, without any prior notice?”

The stranger didn’t flinch, but he took one careful step back. His eyes remained col

    CHLOE I woke up to the same crushing weight on my chest that had been there for three days straight. The bed felt too big, too empty. And of course, the feeling of Mark's absence was heavy in my heart. He hadn’t called. He hadn’t texted. The wedding that was supposed to happen in three months was gone ...just like him. I dragged myself out of bed and stared at my reflection in the mirror. My eyes were puffy and my hair was a mess. I looked exactly how I felt — broken. “Chloe, breakfast is ready!” Mom called from downstairs. I didn’t want to go down, but I forced myself. When I reached the dining table, Dad was already eating in silence while Mom served coffee. “You look terrible,” Mom said bluntly. “Have you spoken to Mark yet?” I shook my head, staring at my plate. “He won’t pick up my calls. I guess it’s really over.” Dad sighed heavily. “You really messed up at that party, Chloe. Flirting with another man in front of everyone? What were you thinking?” The words stung. I f

    DAISY I woke up with a heavy feeling in my chest. The mysterious man’s visit last night still haunted me. Camden had been restless beside me all night, but he finally fell asleep around dawn. I slipped out of bed quietly and went downstairs, hoping for some tea to calm my nerves. The front door opened just as I reached the bottom of the stairs. Mrs. Whitmore walked in, looking exhausted and disheveled. Her usual perfect hair was slightly messy, and her eyes were red like she hadn’t slept. “Mrs. Whitmore,” I said carefully. “You’re back.” She froze when she saw me, then forced a tired smile. “Daisy. Good morning.” Camden came down the stairs behind me, still in his robe. “Mom? Where have you been? "What's with the questions Camden?" she replied defensively like she had rehearsed her lines repeatedly " We had a visitor last night. A strange man demanded to see you.” Mrs. Whitmore’s face went pale. “What man?” Before she could say more, the same stranger from last night walked

    CAMDEN I felt my blood boil the second those words left the stranger’s mouth. I let go of Daisy’s hand immediately and stepped forward, positioning myself between her and the intruder. My shoulders squared, and my jaw tight. “Who the hell are you?” I demanded, voice low and dangerous as I moved closer to him. “And why exactly do you want to see my mother at this hour, in my house, without any prior notice?” The stranger didn’t flinch, but he took one careful step back. His eyes remained cold and calculating. I continued, my voice was rising with every word. “You barge into my home, disrespect my butler, and demand to see my mother like you own the place? Start talking. Now. What business do you have with her?” The man’s lips curled into a thin, mocking smile. “This is a private matter between me and Mrs. Whitmore. It doesn’t concern you, Mr. Whitmore.” “Everything concerning my mother concerns me!” I snapped, taking another aggressive step forward. My fists clenched at my sides

    CAMDEN I stood on the balcony with Daisy, the cool night breeze doing nothing to ease the frustration still burning in my chest. The party that was supposed to celebrate our baby had turned into an absolute disaster. I tried to push the memory of Mark’s outburst and the shattered glasses out of my mind, but it lingered like a bad taste. “I’m sorry tonight ended the way it did,” I said, wrapping my arms around her from behind and resting my chin on her shoulder. “I wanted everything to be perfect for you and our little one. Instead, it was turned into a battlefield.” Daisy leaned back against me, but her body felt tense. “It’s okay, Camden. These things happen. At least the baby news is out there now.” I kissed the side of her neck softly, breathing in her familiar scent. "Are you okay though baby?" I asked because she seemed awfully quiet which was unlike her. "yes, I am" she said coldly "Are you sure, do you want ice cream?" I teased but she just shook her head and smiled.

    Mark’s POV The silence in the car was deafening. I gripped the steering wheel so hard my hands ached. Chloe sat beside me, staring out the window, with tears silently rolling down her cheeks. Her parents were in the back seat, stiff and quiet. No one dared say a word after the disaster at the party. I pulled up in front of their house and killed the engine. The headlights stayed on, cutting through the darkness. Dad cleared his throat from the back. “Mark… Chloe… whatever happened tonight, you two need to talk it through. Don’t let one bad night destroy what you’ve built.” Mom added softly, “We’re sorry for how things went. Just… fix this. Please.” I nodded silently. I didn't have anything else to say. They got out slowly. The car door shut with a heavy thud. I watched them walk inside before pulling away again. I drove us to the quiet hill spot we usually went to, to escape the world. It had an old tree where we’d park for hours, talking about our future. I parked and turned o

    DAISY “Camden, this is completely unnecessary,” I whispered urgently, gripping his arm as we stood near the entrance of the grand ballroom. The entire place sparkled with chandeliers, fresh flowers, and tables loaded with exquisite food. “I’m only two weeks pregnant. Two weeks! You turned our quiet news into a full society event.” Camden chuckled softly, pulling me closer and kissing my forehead. “Baby, I don’t care if it’s two weeks or two months. Our child is already the best thing that’s ever happened to us. Let me celebrate you. Let me show the world how proud I am.” I sighed, leaning into him despite my nerves. “You’re impossible when you’re excited.” “And you love me for it,” he teased, his hand resting protectively over my stomach. Before I could reply, the butler announced new arrivals. My family stepped through the doors. Mom walked in first, wearing a dress that looked borrowed and too tight. Dad followed, adjusting his tie awkwardly. Chloe came last, holding Mark’s
