Your Husband's Real Wife Chapter 47: Their Real Lives
The wedding was simple. A garden ceremony in the late afternoon, sunlight slipping through the trees and touching the lace of Andrea’s gown like a quiet blessing. She didn’t wear white to erase the past or pretend she was starting over from nothing. She chose a soft rose color. It was warm, grounded, and entirely her decision.As her mother adjusted the veil, Andrea smiled faintly. “It’s not a fresh start,” she said, her voice calm. “It’s a continuation. Of me. Of everything I’ve survived.”Her mother nodded, brushing a loose curl from Andrea’s cheek. “You don’t have to start over. You just have to keep going. And this time, with someone who meets you where you are.”Andrea turned, her gaze catching Leonardo’s from across the garden. He stood by the altar, hands folded, eyes full of quiet awe. When their eyes met, he smiled.“Are you ready?” her mother asked gently.Andrea took one last breath. “I’ve been ready. I just didn’t know it until now.”When she finally reached him, Leonardo
Your Husband's Real Wife Chapter 46: Whole and Real
It wasn’t a reunion. Not really.Andrea saw Celina from a distance first, standing in the sunlight outside a small community center near the bay, holding her baby close. The child’s head rested on her shoulder, tiny fingers clutching the edge of her blouse. There was peace in her posture. Not the kind born of perfection, but of choice.Andrea didn’t mean to approach her. But her feet carried her there anyway.Celina turned slowly. Her gaze didn’t harden. It didn’t soften either. It simply held.“Hi,” Andrea said, her voice quiet but steady.“Hi.”A beat passed. Long enough to acknowledge everything they had endured. The lies. The shared man. The shared grief. The lives disrupted, rearranged, forced into truth.“She looks just like you,” Andrea murmured, her eyes on the baby girl.Celina smiled faintly. “She saved me.”Andrea nodded. She understood. “We saved ourselves.”Celina looked at her again, and for the first time, there was no pain in her eyes. Just calm. “I never hated you,” s
Your Husband's Real Wife Chapter 45: Moving On and Regrets
The apartment was small, but it was hers.Celina stood in the middle of the nursery, barefoot, holding a soft yellow blanket to her chest. The window was cracked open, letting in the scent of afternoon rain. Light spilled across the floor where a rug lay half-unrolled, its edges curling.On the wall opposite her was a name. Letters cut out of cardboard, painted lavender, taped gently above the crib."Alina."She smiled at it. The name had come to her like a whisper, one night when she couldn’t sleep. It wasn’t trendy or borrowed from someone else's dream. It was hers.Alina. A name that meant light. Rebirth. A beginning.Celina sat on the edge of the crib, which she had assembled herself after watching a dozen online tutorials. Her fingers traced the wood slowly. There were imperfections. A small chip in the paint. A screw slightly crooked. But it stood steady.Like her.She picked up a tiny onesie from the basket beside her. White with little gray clouds. She held it to her cheek, th

“Celina.”His voice broke the silence before she could close the car door. She froze, fingers still on the handle. The parking lot behind the hospital was nearly empty, save for his car parked a few meters away.She didn’t turn around.“I just want five minutes,” Gabriel said, his footsteps closing the distance. “Please.”Celina let out a slow breath. Her heart had already leapt at the sound of his voice. It was the kind of reaction she hated. The kind she had spent months trying to unlearn. He still had that effect on her, even after all the damage. Even after the nights she had cried herself to sleep, whispering promises that she would never let him touch her peace again.She didn’t turn around right away. Not because she was cold, but because she didn’t trust what would show on her face. Her fingers trembled slightly as she crossed her arms, a weak barrier against the man who had once been everything.“Five minutes,” she repeated, voice barely above a whisper. “That’s all I can aff
Your Husband's Real Wife Chapter 43: Their Lives
Andrea sat at the kitchen table, the same one she had grown up doing homework on, her fingers curled around a mug of chamomile tea. Her mother moved quietly around the kitchen, the soft clinks of spoon against porcelain filling the silence that settled after Andrea finished speaking.“I loved him, Ma,” Andrea whispered, her voice raw. “And he broke me in ways I’m still trying to name.”Her mother didn’t answer right away. Instead, she slid into the chair across from her, eyes soft but worn by years of lived truth.“I know what that kind of breaking feels like,” her mother said. “Your father wasn’t always kind. He loved me like a storm loves the sea. Loud, reckless, and only when it suited him. And when he left, I thought it meant I wasn’t worthy of the quiet kind of love.”Andrea blinked. Her mother had never spoken of him this way before.“But you know what I learned?” her mother continued. “We’re not meant to carry someone else’s failure as proof that we’re unlovable. That kind of p
Your Husband's Real Wife Chapter 42: I'll Still Be Here
“Hi.”Andrea’s voice was soft, unsure, but calm, like she’d practiced it a hundred times in her head and still wasn’t sure it was the right tone.Celina looked up from her coffee, blinked in surprise, then nodded slowly. “Hi. It's you...again."For a moment, neither moved. The quiet hum of the café filled the space between them—ceramic cups clinking, the low chatter of strangers, the hiss of steamed milk.Andrea gestured toward the empty chair. “May I?”Celina hesitated, then pushed the chair out gently with her foot. “Of course.”Andrea sat down. No makeup. Hair in a low bun. Simple linen shirt. She looked... lighter.Celina wore a navy blue blazer, her lipstick faint, her fingers curled protectively around her coffee cup.They studied each other for a beat longer.“I wasn’t sure if you’d say yes,” Andrea admitted.“I wasn’t sure either,” Celina replied. “But I’m glad you came.”A short silence followed, but it wasn’t heavy. Not like before. Not like the months of unspoken war and su
