All Chapters of Fractured Hearts : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

'Is this how it feels to be happy again?'As Rosie pulled up to Moore mansion, her smile faltered, and a sense of foreboding settled in. The excitement that had been building inside her gave way to a growing unease; her heart racing with a bad feeling about what awaited her inside.Distracting herself from the growing unease, she rummaged through her bag and pulled out the pregnancy test result. She unfolded the paper, her eyes scanning the familiar words until they landed on her name, boldly printed in black ink. A smile spread across her face; one that hadn't surfaced in years. For a moment, her worries receded, and all that mattered was the life growing within her."Finally!" She screamed silently, her eyes still lingering on the test result, clouding how the pregnancy would overshadow the harsh realities of her life in the Moore mansion.To the world, she was the envy of many; the wife of young billionaire Moore Archie, living a life of opulence and privilege. Yet, the truth was

After hours of walking, Rosie finally reached the bus station, her feet aching but her spirit unbroken. A bus pulled in, its destination sign not registering with her; she didn't have a particular place in mind. All she knew was that she needed to get away from the toxic environment and negative energies surrounding Archie and his family. She boarded the bus with a singular focus; to create distance and start anew. Her thoughts were consumed by the baby growing inside her; this tiny life was all she had left to hold onto, and she was determined to protect it at all costs.As the bus doors closed behind her, she felt a sense of liberation wash over her; she was taking control of her life, and that of her unborn child. Wherever the bus was headed, it was far enough.As the bus pulled into the station, Rosie stepped off and onto unfamiliar ground. The moment her feet touched the pavement, her stomach growled loudly; reminding her that she hadn't eaten all day. She had rushed out early,

Five years later~"Sorry for your loss." The mourners said, their voices filled with genuine sympathy. "Thank you for coming." Dominic replied, his expression somber as he bid them farewell at the entrance of the bereavement center. He bowed his head respectfully, watching as the influential guests departed. As the last of them disappeared from view, he turned back to find Rosie and Liam approaching him. Liam's face lit up with excitement as he spotted Dominic, and he quickly pulled his hand free from his mother's grasp, racing towards Dominic with an uncontainable enthusiasm.Before Liam reached him, Dominic bent down, arms wide open. "My boy!" He exclaimed, scooping Liam up in a warm embrace. He lifted him high and settled him on his shoulder, walking closer to Rosie with a gentle smile. "Sweetheart," he said softly, slipping his arm around her shoulders. "It's good to have you back in the city. Welcome back."Rosie's smile faltered, her eyes dropping as she spoke. "It's heartbre

"Hun!" Archie exclaimed, taking a step backward, his eyes darting between Dominic and Rosie. The unexpected turn of events left him reeling, his mind struggling to process how things had escalated so quickly. He didn't expect Dominic's bold move, and the realization that another man was standing up for Rosie left him looking flustered and out of his depth.Dominic strode to Rosie's side, his face etched with concern. "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice low and gentle.Rosie nodded, her expression still tense. "Yes, I'm fine.""Dominic, sorry for your loss." Archie offered a belated apology, attempting to salvage the situation.Dominic's gaze turned cool as he responded, "thank you," his eyes locked onto Archie, and his tone dripped with disdain as he gestured at Phoebe with a finger. "Archie, who's this... woman? What are you doing with someone like her?"Phoebe felt a surge of anger, but she bit back her retort, choosing to compose herself in Dominic's presence. With a calm smile, s

A moment later~The funeral was in full swing, a polished affair tailored for the organization's business partners and close associates. The atmosphere buzzed with polite applause and clinking glasses, the kind of gathering where handshakes sealed silent deals and every speech was a chess move.As the final name on the program wrapped up their remarks, the MC stepped back up to the podium with a practiced smile and a gleam in his eye. "And now," he said, his voice echoing lightly through the room, "we'll hear from Wright Dominic, who will be sharing a brief insight into the organization's upcoming plans and initiatives."A low murmur stirred across the room as eyes turned toward the stage, anticipation thickening the air like the calm before a storm. Dominic rose from his seat, his suit catching the soft lights above as the crowd responded with polite applause. Calm and composed, he made his way to the stage with a quiet confidence. "Good day, everyone," Dominic began without pause,
