The Hospital Visit

Chapter OneElena Valdris sat in the waiting room of Thornwick Medical Center, checking her phone for the tenth time. The Kaelthorn family owned half of this hospital, but that didn't mean she got special treatment."Mrs. Kaelthorn?" A familiar voice called out. Elena looked up to see Nerissa Thorne, the head nurse. She knew Nerissa from all those boring charity events Jack's mother dragged her to.Elena stood up quickly. "Yes, is Dr. Mortaine ready?"Nerissa smiled, but it wasn't friendly. "Oh honey, he had an emergency. You'll need to wait much longer.""But I've been waiting for weeks for this appointment," Elena said. "Jack is expecting answers about why I can't get pregnant.""Well, maybe your husband should have called ahead if this was so important," Nerissa said loudly. Other patients in the waiting room started looking over.Elena felt her face getting hot. "Can you please tell me when he'll be back?""Look sweetie," Nerissa crossed her arms and spoke even louder. "Everyone k

Mother-in-Law's Visits

Chapter TwoElena was still in her bedroom when she heard the sound of the car doors slamming in the driveway. Her heart dropped. She knew that sound. Mrs. Kaelthorn had arrived.She quickly fixed her makeup and changed into a simple black dress. No jewelry or designer clothes. Jack's mother hated when Elena looked too fancy. She said it reminded everyone that Elena was just an orphan playing dress up.Elena hurried downstairs just as the front door opened. Mrs. Vivienne Kaelthorn walked in like she owned the place. Which she basically did. She was wearing a white suit that probably cost more than a car and diamonds that sparkled like stars."Mrs. Kaelthorn," Elena said quietly. "I didn't know you were coming.""Of course you didn't know," Mrs. Kaelthorn said coldly. "You were too busy embarrassing our family at the hospital."The head butler, Marcus, appeared immediately. "Mrs. Kaelthorn, welcome. Shall I prepare tea in the sitting room?""Yes. The good china. And call the chef. I wa

First Love Returns

Chapter ThreeElena woke up on the couch in the living room. She had fallen asleep there after crying all night about Mrs. Kaelthorn's visit. Her knees still hurt from kneeling on the marble floor.She looked at the clock. Seven in the morning. Jack never came home last night.Elena went to the kitchen to make coffee. Maybe Jack worked all night at the office again. Maybe he was avoiding her after hearing about the hospital incident. Either way, she felt more alone than ever.She was pouring coffee when she heard car doors outside. Two car doors. Elena frowned. Jack always came home alone.The front door opened and Elena heard voices. Jack's voice and a woman's laugh. A beautiful, musical laugh that made Elena's heart sink.Elena walked to the entrance hall and froze.Jack stood in the doorway with the most beautiful woman Elena had ever seen. She was tall and elegant with long black hair and perfect skin. She wore a designer white dress that probably cost more than Elena's car. Her j

Tears In A Diamond Cage

Chapter FourElena woke up on Friday morning with hope for the first time in days. Today was her appointment with Dr. Mortaine. Today she would finally get answers about the fertility treatments.She dressed carefully in her best outfit. A navy blue dress that Jack had bought her for their first anniversary. She did her makeup perfectly and styled her hair. If the doctor had good news, she wanted to look her best when she told Jack.Elena arrived at Thornwick Medical Center thirty minutes early. She sat in the waiting room, checking her phone every few minutes. Jack hadn't texted her since yesterday when he told her not to wait up for dinner.At exactly ten o'clock, Elena walked to the reception desk."Good morning," she said to the receptionist. "I'm Elena Kaelthorn. I have an appointment with Dr. Mortaine at ten."The receptionist looked confused. "Let me check the schedule." She typed on her computer. "I'm sorry Mrs. Kaelthorn, but Dr. Mortaine is not available today."Elena's hear

Shopping

Chapter FiveElena spent the weekend alone in the house. Jack didn't come home Friday night or Saturday night. His text messages were short and cold. "Working late." "Don't wait up." "Busy with business meetings."Elena knew he was with Victoria. The image of Jack in that hotel towel kept flashing in her mind.By Monday morning, Elena couldn't stay in the house anymore. She decided to go shopping in the Goldenvale District, where all the expensive stores were. Maybe buying something pretty would make her feel better.Elena parked Jack's car outside Luxoria, the most expensive boutique in Vaelthorne City. She had only been there once before, for their wedding dress shopping. Jack's mother had insisted Elena needed "proper clothes" for being a Kaelthorn wife.Elena walked into the store and immediately felt out of place. The saleswomen looked at her with fake smiles. They remembered her as the orphan girl who married Jack Kaelthorn."Mrs. Kaelthorn," the store manager approached. "How l

Charity Gala

Chapter SixElena was having breakfast alone on Wednesday morning when Mrs. Kaelthorn walked into the house without knocking. She was wearing a white suit and diamonds, looking like she owned the world."Elena," Mrs. Kaelthorn said coldly. "Go get dressed. We have a charity event to attend."Elena looked up from her coffee. "A charity event?""The Annual Children's Hospital Gala," Mrs. Kaelthorn said. "Tonight at the Grand Ballroom. You will attend as Jack's wife.""I don't know if Jack wants me there," Elena said quietly.Mrs. Kaelthorn smiled cruelly. "Jack doesn't know you're coming. But the Kaelthorn family must present a united front. People expect to see Jack's wife."Elena felt trapped. "What should I wear?""Something simple," Mrs. Kaelthorn said dismissively. "You don't want to embarrass yourself by trying too hard."That afternoon, Elena went through her closet looking for something appropriate. She chose a navy blue dress that was elegant but not flashy. She did her makeup

Family Dinner

Family Dinner:Elena was still crying about the charity event when her phone rang Friday morning. Mrs. Kaelthorn's name appeared on the screen."Elena," Mrs. Kaelthorn's voice was ice cold. "Family dinner tonight at seven. Don't be late.""Family dinner?" Elena asked."Jack's aunts and uncles are visiting from Celestria. They want to meet Victoria properly."Elena's heart sank. "Victoria will be there?""Of course Victoria will be there. She's practically family now." Mrs. Kaelthorn paused. "You will serve dinner and stay quiet. Don't embarrass us."The phone went dead.Elena spent the day dreading the evening. She knew this dinner would be torture. Jack's family had never liked her, and now they would compare her to Victoria in person.At six thirty, Elena arrived at the Kaelthorn family mansion. The house was huge and cold, just like Mrs. Kaelthorn herself. Elena had only been there a few times in three years of marriage.The butler let Elena in through the back entrance. "Mrs. Kael

Family Dinner (2)

Elena wanted to run away, but she had to keep serving dinner."Victoria, on the other hand," Mrs. Kaelthorn said, "comes from a very fertile family. Her mother had five children.""Five!" Aunt Cordelia gasped. "How wonderful! Victoria, you'll probably have no trouble at all.""I hope not," Victoria said sweetly. "I dream of having lots of children someday."Elena was serving the main course when Victoria suddenly grabbed her wrist."Elena, you're shaking," Victoria said with fake concern. "Are you feeling alright? You look very pale."Everyone at the table turned to stare at Elena. Her hands were indeed shaking from stress and humiliation."I'm fine," Elena whispered."Maybe you should sit down for a moment," Victoria continued. "Oh wait, there's no extra chair. Well, you can sit on the floor if you need to rest."The suggestion was so cruel and humiliating that Elena couldn't speak."Elena doesn't need to sit," Mrs. Kaelthorn said coldly. "She's here to serve, not to rest."Elena fin

The Wrong Wife

Elena waited in the living room until Jack came home. It was almost midnight when she heard his car in the driveway. She had been sitting on the couch for hours, still wearing the servant's uniform from dinner.Jack walked in looking tired. His tie was loose and his hair was messy. When he saw Elena waiting for him, he frowned."Why are you still awake?" Jack asked coldly.Elena stood up slowly. "We need to talk.""I'm tired, Elena. Whatever it is can wait until tomorrow.""No," Elena said firmly. "It can't wait. We're talking now."Jack looked surprised. Elena never spoke to him with such a strong voice."Fine," Jack said, sitting down in his chair. "What do you want to talk about?"Elena took a deep breath. "Why do you hate me so much?"Jack's face went cold. "I don't hate you.""Yes, you do," Elena said, tears starting to fall. "You humiliate me every chance you get. Tonight your family made me serve dinner like a maid while Victoria sat at the table like a queen.""You didn't have

Regret Me

"Then why didn't you divorce me earlier?" Elena asked. "Why did you wait three years to torture me?"Jack paused. For a moment, he looked uncomfortable."Because I kept hoping you would change," he said finally. "I kept thinking maybe you could become the kind of woman I needed in my life. But you never did.""I tried to change!" Elena screamed. "I took etiquette classes. I learned about wine and art. I tried to fit in with your friends. But nothing was ever good enough for you!""Because you were pretending," Jack said coldly. "Victoria doesn't have to pretend. She naturally belongs in high society. She was born for this life."Elena wiped her tears angrily. "And what was I born for? To be your charity case? To be grateful for scraps of attention while you gave your real love to someone else?""You were born to marry someone from your own class," Jack said bluntly.Elena felt rage building inside her. "You're so cruel. So heartless. I loved you with everything I had, and you treated
