Early JuneVanessa’s POVTwo weeks had passed, just like that. With the gossip blogs dying down, Edward and I had fallen into a rhythm. Soft, unspoken, but grounding. The mornings began with Liam’s sleepy smile and Edward’s hand brushing mine over breakfast. Evenings were filled with quiet walks, stolen kisses in the kitchen, and dinners where we spoke like we were learning each other all over again. It felt like we were just meeting each other for the first time, opening up and discovering things we didn’t notice or see previously.Edward was patient with me, gentler than before. He’d begun to lean into fatherhood in small but steady ways, taking Liam to school twice a week, reviewing his silly drawings with exaggerated admiration, and reading him bedtime stories when I got home late from the fashion house. And when Liam fell asleep, we had all the time to be intimate, passionate and crazy about each other, in ways I never imagined, ways I never thought possible. Edward Silver was a

Vanessa’s POVI couldn’t believe it. She was here, like my worst nightmare. Why would she choose to show up now? Everything was already starting to get better. Now it all felt worse.The edges of my vision blurred as I stepped into the grand foyer, i felt the air thick with tension. The first thing I saw was Edward’s clenched fists. And his mother, Jules Silver. Both were locked in a fervent argument just beyond the double doors. Daniel trailed behind me, expression unreadable but his fingers subconsciously brushing mine.I knew Daniel wouldn’t leave me, especially not now. There was no point telling him to go.“What’s going on here?” I asked walking further in. Edward turned at the sound of my voice, his expression going from thunderclouds to something softer, concern. Then back to fire.My eyes landed on Jules as she stood rigid, a queen dressed in an ivory suit that screamed wealth and control, sharp cheekbones, steely gaze, unapologetically cold. Upon seeing me, her lip curled.

Edward’s POV“Alessa,” I exhaled,my voice barely more than a whisper as my gaze locked on the woman standing in the living room of the mansion.She looked exactly as I remembered. Elegant, poised, but now her stomach curved unmistakably outward, the kind of pregnancy you couldn’t hide. Maybe five months along. My chest clenched. My mind spun with the impossible.No. It was possible. Because I had made a mistake.Vanessa stood frozen beside Daniel, her face pale, eyes wide with confusion and heartbreak. My mother stood tall between them, her chin lifted, victorious like some general in the final act of a long and calculated war. The air was thick with something venomous.Jules broke the silence first, with a cold smile. “There she is. I believe you remember Alessa, don’t you, Edward?”I turned to Vanessa immediately. “Nessa, I didn’t know—I swear, I didn’t know she was pregnant. I haven’t seen her since—”“Don’t,” Vanessa whispered. Her voice shook. “Don’t call me that.”“Please.” I r

Edward POVThe echo of the door slamming shut still rang in my ears.I stood there, frozen in place, the living room drenched in a suffocating silence that felt far louder than any scream. Vanessa was gone—again. And this time, I wasn’t sure if she’d come back.My hands dropped to my sides, fists clenching until my knuckles turned white. I could still hear Jules’s voice, cold and precise: “She’ll never be a Silver. And Alessa’s child will be the true heir.”It had taken everything in me not to scream. Not to break something. Not to fall to my knees.Instead, I’d stood there and watched the woman I loved, the woman I’d fought so hard to win back, run from me in tears. I was the villain again, whether I meant to be or not.And damn it, this time, I couldn’t even blame her.I ran a hand through my hair and dropped onto the edge of the couch, elbows on my knees. Alessa had left with Jules, but they promised to be back later. She hadn’t said much before she left, just a smug smile, as if s

Vanessa’s POVJune 8thTwo days.That’s how long I’ve been hiding at Bella’s, pretending that everything isn’t slowly collapsing around me.Her guest bedroom is cozy. Too cozy. Like it’s trying to comfort me, trick me into pretending I’m not devastated. I’ve scrolled past Edward’s name at least fifty times. Missed calls. Messages. Voicemails I can’t bring myself to listen to. Every time I close my eyes, I see Jules’ wicked grin, Alessa’s baby bump. The shock in Edward’s face when she walked in.And the way my heart cracked open like broken glass.I stir my coffee slowly, watching Liam rush past me, his tiny Spider-Man backpack bouncing as he heads for the door. It’s his last day of school before summer break, and he’s excited. He and Jacob have been talking about a sleepover all week, like the one he had here these past few days wasn’t enough.Lucky for me, our bodyguards Harris and Cole went to the mansion on my behalf to get spare clothes plus Liam’s school uniform. I wasn’t ready t
