OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 101 - チャプター 110

THIRD PERSON“Can you please pack an extra lunch for me, Miranda?” Diamond asked sweetly.“Why would you need extra lunch, Diamond?” Miranda replied, raising an eyebrow. “This is already more than enough. You barely finish your food as it is.”“Maybe just a little more today,” Diamond pleaded.“Not unless you have a good reason for this unusual request,” Miranda said firmly as she closed the lids of the food flasks.Tilda walked in, having overheard the kitchen conversation. She was curious as to why Diamond would ask for extra lunch.“I want to share with Shantel,” Diamond explained quietly.“Shantel?” Tilda repeated, surprised.Diamond turned toward her mother. “Mommy, please ask Miranda to give me more food today,” she begged.“Why do you want to share your lunch with Shantel?” Tilda asked, concerned.The request sounded oddly familiar. It reminded Tilda of her childhood with Kristie—always giving, always sacrificing, only to end up hurt. She couldn’t shake the worry that Diamond m

TILDAI didn’t even realize someone had walked into the office. I was too caught in the whirlwind of emotions. Joy mingled with questions I couldn’t shake off.How did Oscar find out about the ring?Was he the one who bought it back? Had he done all this just to stop someone else from having it?I reached out my hand to take the ring, but his eyes remained locked on the door.There was a shift in his expression. More of regret, hesitation, perhaps even fear. Something had changed.I turned—and that was when I saw her.“Alicia Strafford,” I murmured, my eyes landing on Oscar’s ex-girlfriend.She had left years ago. What was she doing here now? And... and, I don’t want to be seen by anyone I knew. Words might get to James.Alicia walked in confidently, carrying herself with the same elegance she had back in high school. Somehow, she still managed to intimidate me.At one time, she was Kristie’s closest friend. Yet, she had never spared me a second glance back then. She always made me fe

TILDAIt was all falling apart—and I never saw it coming.Oscar had taken me for a fool. There was no other explanation. What kind of twisted game had he been playing? Why would he attempt to propose to me while still involved with Alicia?She had lived with him, cared for him, and had even been by his side when I thought I was the only one. She said all of this right in front of him—and he hadn’t even tried to deny a single word.I sped down the highway, ignoring the traffic signs and honking horns. My hands gripped the wheel tightly, fury and heartbreak battling inside me.If only Oscar had been honest. If only he had warned me that Alicia was back—or that she had never truly left—I could have handled this differently. I wouldn’t have felt so blindsided, so utterly humiliated.And now James and Kristie likely knew where I was. All thanks to Oscar. Everything I had tried to shield the kids from was about to catch up with us.I parked a block away from the house and jumped out before

OSCAR GRAY“This is all your doing, Alicia,” I snapped, breath ragged. The mere sight of her churned my stomach with disgust.She raised her eyebrows in mock innocence. “Me? No, Oscar. I’m not the one trying to force you to raise someone else’s bastards.”Eddy came downstairs then, holding his phone in one hand. His voice was grave.“Sir, I think… I think she’s moved. The kids too. It seems they packed the important stuffs and moved.”My heart sank. “No. No, that’s not possible,” I whispered, staggered.It all started to make sense—the timing of the move, how distant she had suddenly become, how I never got to see the kids and her together at the party. I should have realized. I should’ve known.Didn’t she trust me enough to tell me about them?“She’s been exposed,” Alicia said triumphantly. “Of course she ran. That’s what she’s good at—running and hiding.”I ignored her taunts and turned to Eddy, my eyes burning.“We must find her. Where would she go with the kids? She can’t just van

OSCAR GRAY “Okay, I get it,” Grandpa said for what must have been the tenth time that evening. “Alicia entered, and Tilda ran off.” He paused at the exact spot he always did, just as he had every other time he retold the story—like he couldn’t believe it, like he was still trying to give me one last chance to make it right.He gave me a hard look, his eyes lined with disappointment. “No, that’s not it. You did nothing and watched her leave—after hearing the truth from Alicia. Then, somehow, she made it back to her place before you, even though you used the restricted lane. And by the time you got there, she had already left with the quadruplets… who turned out to be hers.”His stare was unwavering, burning straight through me. Then, just like clockwork, he asked again, “Tell me, boy—how long did it take you to finally start looking for her?”I opened my mouth to reply, but he didn’t wait.“You say you tried. You say you’ve been sear
