Semua Bab My Ex-husband And Son Wants Me Back After Divorce: Bab 61 - Bab 70

I didn’t want to talk to him.Not after everything he had done. Not after everything he had ruined. But there Sebastian stood, as if nothing had happened. As if we could pretend we were fine.“Healey,” he said softly, “can we talk?”I crossed my arms. “No. I don’t think we should.”He frowned, stepping closer. “I just thought maybe… we could still be friends.”I stared at him, stunned. Friends? After all this?“We’re not friends, Sebastian,” I said coldly. “We can never be friends.”His smile dropped.“The only thing we share now,” I continued, “is Jordan. That’s it. We’re just his parents. Nothing more.”“But—”“No,” I said, cutting him off. “Don’t try to turn this into something it’s not.”He looked away for a second, then back at me. “Don’t you want to know what Logan told me?”I hesitated.He took that silence as a yes.“He warned me,” Sebastian said. “Told me to stay away. Said I’ve hurt you enough.”I nodded once. “He was right.”“But that’s not why I stepped back,” he said quic

Susan's POV:Everything was starting to become very interesting. The woman I had “saved” — the one I had seen struggling and thought I could help — turned out to be much more connected to my life than I had imagined. She was the nanny for my daughter, Lily. And even more shocking, and Logan was my ex-boyfriend. What a small, twisted world this was.I had originally planned to take Lily away from Haley after I found out Lily had autism. I thought maybe I could give Lily a better life, or at least control what happened to her. But tonight, watching Lily so happy, so full of laughter and cheerfulness, made me rethink everything. Haley was good to Lily. Lily needed Haley, and I didn’t want to ruin that.Still, there was one person I wanted to hurt, one person who had to pay — Logan’s mother. Her arrogance and coldness toward me had always been a thorn in my side. She treated me like I was a problem, like I was beneath her. If I wanted to make her angrier, I needed to play my cards right.

I didn’t expect to run into them here.The restaurant was lively—full tables, soft music playing, wine glasses clinking—but as soon as I saw Lily walk in with Logan and Susan, the entire room shrank to just them.And yet, the moment Lily walked in—with her curls bouncing, hand clasped in Logan’s, and Susan trailing beside them—the entire room seemed to fall into a hush. For me, at least. My pulse slowed. The silverware in my hand suddenly felt heavier.Lily’s eyes lit up the second they landed on me. Her face broke into a wide grin, eyes full of unfiltered joy, and before I could fully process her presence, she was already running toward me.“Aunt Haley!” she called out, her voice high and eager, little feet pattering against the hardwood floor as she weaved around a passing waiter.I rose quickly, heart tight in my chest as I crouched down to meet her open arms. She threw herself at me without

The night air was cool when I stepped out onto the balcony. The breeze carried a hint of salt and pine, like the kind you smell near a quiet lake in the woods. The wooden boards beneath my feet were smooth and slightly damp with dew. I wrapped my arms around myself to block the chill until Logan appeared beside me and handed me a cold bottle.“Beer?” he asked, his voice a low rumble in the quiet.I took it with a small nod. “Thanks.”We stood side by side in silence, the only sound being the soft clink of glass as I tapped the bottle cap against the railing. The sky above was vast and dark, scattered with faint stars. Below, the city lights twinkled like fireflies—distant, golden, and dreamy.Logan leaned on the railing, elbows resting heavily, turning his beer bottle slowly in his hand like he was lost in thought. “Susan doesn’t want custody of Lily,” he said flatly, like he'd rehearsed it a thousand times.I glanced at him, the bottle paused halfway to my lips. “I know.”His head tu

The car stopped in front of a huge white mansion. It looked like something out of a movie.Tall iron gates stood wide open. Bright windows stretched across three floors. The mansion’s walls gleamed under the soft glow of garden lights. There was a big stone fountain in the middle of the driveway, its water gently trickling. Around it were trimmed flowers, marble statues, and a garden that looked perfectly cut, like it had been designed by a professional.My heart thudded.Logan helped Lily out first. Then he turned to me.“You okay?” he asked.I nodded, even though my hands were sweating. “Just a little nervous.”He smiled and reached for my hand, his touch warm and steady. “You’ll be fine.”Lily tugged at my other hand, full of excitement. “Can I go play in the garden? I saw kids outside.”I looked through the glass doors. Fancy-looking children in pressed shirts and pretty dresses were running around near the trees. Their laughter echoed faintly.“Alright,” I said slowly, “but be ca
