“He’s just so charming. Every little gesture pulls me in. I can’t stop watching him,” Sienna gushed, pressing a hand over her heart like a girl in love. “I check his social media every day. I even go to the gym just to run into him. You should see how good he looks in a suit. I really, really like him. But I’m too scared to tell him. What should I do?”“Leo Lincoln really is attractive,” Xena said with a gentle smile. “But don’t worry, Sienna. I’m sure he’ll like you too.”“Do you really think so?” Sienna’s voice softened with doubt. She had always been proud and confident, but in front of the man she liked, a hint of insecurity crept in. After all, falling for her brother’s best friend made her feel embarrassed.Xena studied her for a moment, then said with a reassuring smile, “You’re beautiful. What man wouldn’t like you? Who knows—maybe he’s already noticed you.”Sienna was visibly pleased by the compliment and looped her arm through Xena’s. “Okay, then what about you? When

“Go sleep in the bed,” Felix said coolly.Miranda glanced at her phone. It was just after midnight. Without hesitation, she made a decision.She was going home.Grabbing her coat and draping it over her shoulders, she picked up her phone. “No need. I’ll sleep at home.”Felix paused mid-motion, halfway through hanging his jacket. Then, without a word, he slipped it back on and said coldly, “I’m leaving.”He picked up his phone from the bed, pulled open the door, and walked out.Miranda sat frozen for a moment. The chill he left behind still seemed to linger in the air. She closed her eyes, forcing herself not to let it affect her.Felix didn’t come back for the rest of the night. And as for where he ended up sleeping, Miranda didn’t care.*The next morning, Miranda came downstairs to the sound of Mia’s cheerful voice echoing through the house.After breakfast, she was planning to take Mia home with her, but Susan was quick to shut it down. “Let her stay here for a few days.

In the second photo, Xena was getting an IV drip, nestled sweetly against Felix’s arm. His suit jacket was draped over her shoulders to keep her warm.In the third, Felix was holding an umbrella, walking side by side with Xena in the light rain. She was still wrapped in his jacket, and he had one arm around her.“Miss Stone, these photos clearly suggest your husband is having an affair,” the private investigator texted. “Don’t worry. I’ll keep tracking him. I’ll update you the moment I have anything new.”“Got it,” Miranda replied calmly. She saved the photos in a private folder on her computer, quietly preparing for the divorce.The days grew colder, and soon, New Year’s Eve arrived.At 9 a.m., Susan called to urge Miranda to bring Mia over early.Felix came downstairs in a casual suit, picked up the car keys, and carried their dressed-up daughter out the door.The streets were full of holiday cheer. Twinkling lights wrapped around the trees, and shop windows were decorated wit

Mrs. Gibson Sr. insisted on giving the card, and Miranda knew that if she refused again, Mrs. Gibson Sr. would surely get upset. She finally accepted it, making a silent note to return it after the divorce.After dinner, Sienna went out to meet friends. Susan and Mia settled in to watch a movie in the living room. Felix was there too, scrolling through his phone. Miranda came down the stairs, already thinking about how she could bring Mia home with her.“Mia’s going to spend the night here,” Susan said, holding Mia close. “You two go on home.”Miranda glanced at Felix. She hadn’t driven that day, so if he wasn’t heading back, she would have to call a cab.“Mia, are you sure you don’t want to come home with Mommy and Daddy tonight?” Felix asked gently.“I’m sleeping with Grandma tonight,” Mia replied cheerfully, still munching on fruit.Miranda gave her a warm smile. “Be good, sweetie. Mommy will come visit you tomorrow.”“Bye, Mommy and Daddy!” Mia waved.Miranda waved back and

Miranda let out a cold laugh and turned around. “Xena, you and I both know whether that was really an accident.”“What are you trying to say?” Sienna snapped. “Are you actually accusing her of pushing you?”“Sienna, that’s enough,” Felix said coldly, standing up and walking over.Sienna bit her lip and backed off.Felix looked at Miranda. “Are you alright?”“I’m fine,” she replied, turning her face away.“Xena just got over a cold. If anything, she’s the one you should be worried about,” Sienna muttered from the side.“I’m okay,” Xena said gently, covering her mouth with her hand as she gave a delicate cough. “I just swallowed some water, that’s all.”Felix glanced at Xena with concern, then turned back to Miranda. “I’ll take you home.”“That won’t be necessary,” Miranda said briskly. She turned to a hotel staff member. “Please throw out my wet clothes.”Then she picked up her bag and walked over to Leo. “Thank you again, Mr. Lincoln.”Just as she reached the door, Xena stag
