Okay, he was the one who messed up, and now he hadn’t even been careful?Anger flashed through Fatima as the realization hit her. How careless could Nicholas be? Now their daughter was asking questions, questions no child should ever have to ask. And how was she supposed to explain something like this to a little girl who had only ever known her parents happy?Fatima was tongue-tied. She had no idea what to tell her daughter, no idea how to explain why Leslie had kissed her father on the lips. The children had always known Leslie as their aunt. Bonnie was old enough to understand the difference between a friendly kiss on the cheek and what she had seen. That made it worse. Much worse.“And she slept at our house last night,” Bonnie continued, her voice innocent but relentless. “Mama, where did you sleep?”The questions piled up, one after the other. Fatima quickly finished cleaning her daughter’s mouth, then glanced at Wave, who was completely absorbed in his own little world. Making

Tears slowly rolled down Fatima’s cheeks. She hadn’t realized it earlier, but now she saw it clearly, she had trusted Ian more than she should have. Knowing that he might have told Nicholas everything, even after she asked him not to, made her feel deeply betrayed.This had always been her problem. Once a man showed interest and said a few sweet words, she trusted him instantly. That’s what happened with Nicholas, look at where it had brought her. She couldn’t even recognize her own life anymore. And now Ian… what had made her think she could trust him? A player like him! He had promised to bring her phone within an hour. It had been more than seven hours, and not even a phone call.“I didn’t sleep with Ian,” Fatima said quietly.“And I’m supposed to believe you?”“You’re not taking my kids, Nicholas. I won’t allow it.”“Well, baby,” he stopped and looked at her seriously. “You forget who has the most connections between us.”Fatima wanted to scream that she didn’t sleep with Ian agai

The young woman quickly covered herself once Fatima really looked at her. She was young, yes, but clearly an adult. Fear washed over her face as reality sank in. She wasn’t stupid. She knew exactly who the woman standing there was, the wife. She had seen them online before. Everyone had. Nicholas Ashford and his perfect wife.When she agreed to come here, she already knew he was married. That hadn’t been hidden from her. But he had promised her a large amount of money, five hundred thousand. Half a million. To her, that money meant freedom, meant problems disappearing overnight. Half a million just to fuck him once was an offer she wasn’t about to turn down.“Don’t worry yourself, baby. That’s just my boring wife,” Nicholas said casually as he walked to his desk, picked up the bottle of whiskey, and took a long drink. “She can be annoying sometimes.”He noticed the way the girl’s hands shook as she pulled her clothes back on.“But she’s harmless,” he added, almost amused. “In fact, we

On her way, she thought of names. Obviously, she couldn’t just disappear on Nicholas, she knew him too well. He loved his kids more than anything and would turn the world upside down to find them. If she was going to do this, she had to be smart. She had to do it right.“Georgia is too obvious,” she muttered to herself. She couldn’t stay there; Nicholas would find her within a day. After all, it was where they had spent most holidays and vacations.“He knows LA would be my choice,” she continued, thinking aloud. By the time she neared the school, she had decided her best option was to leave America entirely, maybe Australia or Canada. She even considered China.Then her car was stopped at the school gate.“Identity,” the guard demanded. Fatima quickly reached for her card.“Mrs…” she cleared her throat, “Ms. Bennett,” she corrected herself. The divorce was already in process, and soon she would be back to her family name.“It says here you’re Mrs. Ashford,” the guard replied. It wasn’

Fatima didn’t need all this drama. Maybe if she just sat with Ian and made it clear she wasn’t interested, he would finally leave her alone, so she asked him to follow her.“I had no idea your family owned a museum,” Ian said as he looked around, taking in the estate, it was deliberately hidden, meant to stay off maps for a reason. “Can I get a tour?”“I’m sure you didn’t come for a tour,” Fatima replied, rolling her eyes.“True, but who doesn’t like surprises?”“Please, sit down,” she said as they reached one of the outdoor tables set up on the grass. “Would you like a glass of water?” she asked, pushing her hair away from her face as a light breeze passed.“A bottle would do,” Ian said, taking a seat while Fatima called one of the servants over and asked for water. “So, I heard about the divorce,” he added, and of course he had, he could walk into any place and demand answers, all it ever took was a wink, his charm worked effortlessly on both men and women. “How are you holding up?”
