All Chapters of My Husband Faked His Death, So I Moved on : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

12: Back to StrangersDAMONHonestly, I haven’t felt so relieved in months, Aurora was finally out and that meant i could finally sleep without the guilt feeling of hearing her screams in my head . I sat at the corner of the bar waiting for Lyon, my eyes fixed on my phone. The news was everywhere: The wife of Bryan Wolfe, who was accused of his murder, had been released. But another clause of the news caught my attention.“Her case was opened by her ex-lover from years ago. Rumors have it that they had been engaged to be married…”I immediately scrolled past the news, dropped my phone, and took a deep breath. I didn’t want it messing with my head. I never wanted to think about or even hear anyone say anything about my relationship with Aurora and why it ended. They knew nothing about us.“There’s the big man of the season,” Lyon called out from behind. Good, something to take my mind off this, whatever it was.“You should work on your punctuality. It sucks,” I scoffed, and he chuckle

Chapter 14 : The Wolfe Family Since Aurora stepped out of prison, the Wolfe estate had been in such a provocative state. Every member of the family who did all they could to keep her behind bars was more than annoyed. It was as though hell had been let loose. Bryan’s mother, his father, his sister, his aunt (his mother’s sister) everyone was not having it. And poor Jake had to stay in that toxic environment. Yet they called his mother the toxic one? How pathetic.“Arghhhhhhhh!! That witch!” Gracie screamed, pushing the door open when they arrived from court. Her assistant rushed to grab her bag.“ How could Bryan betray us like this ! “ Lola , Gracie’s sister added . “Aunty…don’t say that “ Wendy responded quickly before her mom could even reply . “ When did he see that ex boyfriend’s could be their ex girlfriend’s lawyer !” Gracie yelled . “ He wasn’t the lawyer …”“ Stop defending him ! Did he or did not help her get out of prison ?” Gracie screamed with annoyance “Put yoursel

Chapter 16: A Mother’s Cry 2AURORAThe moment I stepped out of my mother’s room, only one thing was on my mind, I needed to go to my son and hear from him that he didn’t want to see me. I searched the house for the car keys but couldn’t find them. I figured they were on my mom’s nightstand, but I couldn’t risk going back in, she’d know what I was up to.Fine. I’d take an Uber or a bus. But then reality hit me, I had no money. My account was frozen, locked, and dormant. There was no way i could access it , I couldn’t even pay for my uber . I stood there, trying to think of a plan, but there was none. The only option left was to walk. If I started now, I could probably make it and be back before my mom wakes up . I didn’t know if my body could take it, but I had to try.“For Jake,” I whispered as I ran out of my father’s compound and into the street.“You can do this… it’s for Jake. You have to see him,” I muttered to myself as my feet pounded the pavement.At the nearest bus stop, t

Chapter 18: Your SideDAMON“Whose side are you on, Damon?”Her eyes met mine; she was searching for answers. My heart spoke, but my mouth didn’t. My heart was racing; I took a deep breath but didn’t respond.“Your side. I am on your side. If I wasn’t, I wouldn’t have tried to get you out, I said in my head, but I didn’t tell her.”“You should go home and change,” I said, looking away. Her body was still on mine; I cleared my throat and she helped herself up.“You are bleeding. We should get you cleaned up and take you home.”“I asked you a question. Don’t try to change the topic. I am aware I’m soaked and bleeding. You haven’t answered my question.”I took a deep breath, avoiding her eyes. I stood up. It wasn’t easy to say what my heart wanted to say. I didn’t want to complicate things further for her. What she wanted me to confirm would make everything messy.“I am on nobody’s side. What you did was embarrassing and uncalled for, and that’s why I asked you to leave and took you out

20: A Heart Like StoneAURORAMy mom chasing me out of the house was not the reaction I had expected. There was no way I could talk her out of it especially after I had embarrassed her like that. For someone who valued her ego so much, I could only imagine what it must have felt like when Bryan’s mom called.“I just wanted to see my son. I never knew things would escalate…” I muttered, my head bowed to the floor.“He doesn’t want to see you! What part of that do you not understand? I told you! Didn’t I?” she yelled.“I just wanted to see him…” I repeated, doing my best to hold back my tears.“What is your problem? Haven’t you suffered enough? Why can’t you come back to your senses? I told you I was going to handle it! You just got out of prison, and you went there? Didn’t Damon tell you about the court order?” She paused, then turned to Damon.“Didn’t you tell her they now have custody and she can only see him when they permit it?”“I did,” he replied, his voice barely above a whispe
