Chapter 42 Sienna's Pov“Mama,” Daphne whined, tugging at my arm as I sat at the dining table, reviewing a few things on my laptop. “Can we see Lucas? Please?”I frowned, trying to focus. Daphne had been bringing Lucas up more frequently, and each time she did, it unsettled me. I didn’t know how to explain to her that Lucas wasn’t part of our lives anymore, at least not in the way she wanted.“Sweetheart,” I started, choosing my words carefully. “Lucas is busy, you know. He’s working.”Daphne pouted, her eyes wide with that innocent look she always used when she wanted something desperately. “But I miss him, Mama. Can we please invite him for dinner? Just tonight?”I sighed, knowing how persistent she could be. The thought of having Lucas here again, sitting at the same table, stirred something in me, something I wasn’t ready to deal with. But seeing Daphne this sad… I couldn’t say no. Not to her.“Fine,” I relented, grabbing my phone. “I’ll call him. But no promises, okay?”Daphne’s

Chapter 44 Sienna's Pov“Lucas isn’t my daddy,” Daphne’s voice echoed in my mind, the words stabbing at me as I sat at the edge of my bed, staring blankly at the wall. She had cried herself to sleep after the dinner, her little heart broken by the truth I had to force on her. A truth that, even for me, was hard to accept.The evening had been a disaster, and as much as I wanted to pretend that everything was going according to my plan, Daphne’s words haunted me. The way she had looked up at Lucas, her innocent hope shining in those wide, brown eyes, only for me to shatter it by telling her he was married. I hadn’t meant to be so cold, but I had to. I couldn’t let Daphne live in a fantasy. Lucas wasn’t her father, and he never would be.Still, I couldn’t help but wonder what could have been. If things had gone differently. If Lucas hadn’t walked out of my life the way he did. Would we be a family? Would Daphne be calling him daddy, and would I be waking up next to him instead of sit

Chapter 46 Sienna's Pov“Lucas always thinks he can get the last word,” I muttered to myself, pacing the room after leaving the cafe. My mind was still buzzing from our conversation. The nerve of him, coming here and demanding answers like he had some right to know everything about my life, about Daphne’s life. The fact that he even asked if Daphne was his? That was laughable. Lucas never really understood me, and now, he was playing catch-up in a game I had been controlling all along.I paused in front of the mirror, catching a glimpse of myself, my reflection was calm, composed, but beneath the surface, I felt the familiar current of anger swirling. Lucas had gotten under my skin more than I’d like to admit. Why did he care so much? I had told him the truth, Daphne wasn’t his, but still, he kept hovering around her, around me. He couldn’t let it go. I needed to regain control, to remind myself why I was doing all of this. Everything had been calculated. Every move I made was meant

Chapter 48 Lucas's Pov“I’m done with this,” I muttered to myself, gripping the steering wheel as I drove toward Sienna’s place, my mind racing. I couldn’t take it anymore, the constant sabotage, the twisted games, the manipulation. If Sienna wanted me out of her life, she should have just said it years ago, instead of this endless back-and-forth of tearing down everything I tried to build. If she was intent on ruining me, fine. I’d let her know exactly how I felt about it.When I finally arrived, I barely registered my own footsteps as I stormed through the hallways until I reached her door. I didn’t even knock. My mind was a blur, my heart pounding with the frustration I’d buried for far too long. I pushed the door open, and there she was, sitting with Daphne, the two of them playing with some toys on the floor.“Sienna!” I barked, causing both of them to look up in surprise.Daphne’s eyes widened, and she instinctively moved closer to her mother. But my focus was on Sienna, and I

Chapter 50Lucas’s Pov“Where… where am I?” I mumbled, trying to sit up, the room slowly coming into focus. Every inch of my body ached, a dull throbbing in my side pulling me back to reality. Beside me, Lisa’s face came into view, and she smiled, though something guarded behind her eyes.“You’re in the hospital,” she replied softly, reaching for my hand. “I found you lying at home, covered in blood. You scared me half to death.”The memory rushed back, jagged fragments of pain and darkness. “Someone stabbed me,” I whispered, still trying to piece together what had happened....Lisa’s expression turned, then hardened. “Why does it even matter who did it?” she snapped, a touch of resentment in her voice. “You should be more careful about where you go… and with whom.”I took a steadying breath. “Lisa, just… please call the doctor. I need to leave here. There’s something I have to do.”“What, so you can run back to Sienna?” she demanded, her tone rising. “I can’t believe you went craw
