Lahat ng Kabanata ng Cold-Hearted Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back : Kabanata 211 - Kabanata 220

[Kaden]My hands were trembling as I tightened it on the steering wheel. Driving straight to the hospital.I had left just as a few officers arrived on the scene. One asked if I’d seen anything suspicious.I said no.Because I wasn’t going to give Cherry the fucking satisfaction of prison. She didn’t deserve the easy way out.She’s crossed the goddamn line—and if anything happens to Tilda, if she lays a single finger on her. If she dares to.The emergency units had tried to stop me from driving with the bullshit of I needed to be checked by the paramedics all because I was in a smoke for not even up to twenty minutes. When my kids are right at the hospital and their mother is nowhere to be found.Yes, I fucking ran back into the damn house with one of the firefighters following behind me. I told him there were places he didn't know in the house. That was all lies. I just wanted to be fucking sure that Tilda was seriously not in that house and I confirmed it. She was nowhere near that

[Matilda]"Are you sure you're okay? If there's something that bastard said to you that you don't like...""He didn't say anything," I cut Leo off, my hand still clamping over each other.I bit down on my lip hard as I tried to calm the way my heart was pounding loudly in my chest. I wanted to call Kaden back to ask what he was trying to say but I know so well that Kaden had absolutely nothing reasonable to say to me, not with the way he's been constantly calling me for days now.But why was I still feeling some kind of way?"I don't like the way you are," Leo's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I turned toward him and shook my head."I'm okay. I just feel sad knowing that the children must have been worried," I said, and he nodded, dropping his hand on my thighs."I'm sorry about that. It's my fault and not yours. I shouldn't have slept off," Leo apologized again for the umpteenth time."It's fine," I mumbled, staring outside the window as the city blurred past us.I rested my head

[Matilda]"Doctor...doctor," I rushed toward the doctor. My heart slammed so hard against my chest as I watched him slip off his gloves and the next second his hand dropped to his side.I swallowed hard, my eyes fixed deeply on his. I took another step forward, taking his hand in mine.Everything else went still around me. It was clear that he had walked in our direction and called Kaden's name to give us an update, but why...why was he not saying anything?"Doctor," Kaden's voice sliced beside me and the doctor stared at where I was holding him. With my hand still on his, he took another step forward."I'm sorry," he mumbled and my whole body stiffened."What are you sorry about?!" I yelled, not giving him a chance to say another fucking word. "How are my kids? Where are...""Please calm down ma'am," he said and Leo immediately stepped forward, grabbing me and peeling my hand away from the doctor's coat."Tesoro," Leo whispered, holding me still. I stood still, my jaw clenching hard

[Kaden] My jaw clenched so hard as I walked out of the doctor's office. Not paying attention that he followed behind me, heading back to the emergency unit My heart ached as I tried to put out the picture in my head. One of my sons didn't make it out alive It felt like my heart was being carved into tiny pieces. It hurts! It fucking hurts I stepped into the hallway, the walls closing in on me, my chest heavy like it was dragging my heart down to my knees. I expected her to be gone by now. But she wasn't She was no longer kneeling, and crying her eyes out. She was standing near Ryan and Mason, and that bastard Leo was still there, holding her hands. And the moment she heard my footsteps, she turned. Red-rimmed eyes locked on me, and without hesitation, she stormed forward. A bitter smirk tugged at her lips as she wiped her tears roughly with the back of her hand. "You have the guts to blame all of this on me," she said, voice hoarse but steady. "Because I left my kids in the n

[Matilda]The hallway was too quiet.Not empty...nurses moved past, doors opened and shut, footsteps echoed—but the silence inside me was louder than anything else. I stood still, my back leaning against the cold white wall just outside the emergency unit. My arms wrapped around my middle like they could hold the pieces of me still breaking.They said they still needed time until I could go in and see my baby who had survived I didn’t even know which one. Aiden or Austin. Neither did I know which one was declared deadNo, I couldn't see who it was yet. There was no way I could request to see my dead child. No way! Not now! Not now! Not fucking now!My body ached, but not nearly as much as my chest. The pain there was hollow and constant, like something had been scooped out of me and left unfilled.I stared blankly ahead. Just wanting to breathe again "Wait, what? You mean the other twin...?"I spun around so fast that the world tilted.I didn’t hear the rest.Two nurses walked past
