All Chapters of How I Catfished my Husband and his Girlfriend: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

The weeks after the wedding passed faster than Sophia expected.Life settled into something that almost felt normal.Almost.Dominic had returned to training not long after the wedding, leaving early in the mornings and coming home late in the evenings exhausted but proud. His promotion meant more responsibility, and Sophia admired how seriously he took it.Their small home in Georgia slowly began to feel like a real life together.Pictures from the wedding filled the walls.Sophia’s father had insisted on sending furniture that was far more expensive than anything Dominic would have chosen himself. Dominic had protested at first, but Sophia had simply smiled and reminded him that arguing with her father was a losing battle.Patrick and Angelo had moved into a small house only a few streets away.Officially, they were there to help with “family matters.”Unofficially, they were there to make sure nothing ever happened to Sophia again.And most days, Sophia was grateful for that.Her p

The morning started like any other.Sophia stood in the kitchen slowly stirring a cup of tea while Angelo sat at the island scrolling through his phone and Patrick stood at the back door watching the tree line like he always did.The house smelled like coffee and toast.But Sophia felt different.A deep pressure tightened low in her stomach.She paused.Then exhaled slowly.“Hmm.”Angelo glanced up.“What?”Sophia rubbed her stomach casually.“Nothing.”Patrick didn’t turn around.“Don’t say ‘nothing.’”Sophia rolled her eyes.“You two are worse than my father.”Another wave of pressure rolled through her abdomen.This time it was stronger.She leaned against the counter quietly until it passed.Angelo noticed.“You good?”Sophia forced a small smile.“Yeah. Just a cramp.”Patrick finally turned.“Define cramp.”Sophia took a breath.“Probably Braxton Hicks.”Patrick and Angelo exchanged a look.Neither of them believed that for a second.Across TownDominic stood in the locker room a

The hospital room was filled with movement.Nurses moved quickly around the bed while machines beeped softly in the background. The bright lights made everything feel surreal.Sophia gripped Dominic’s hand so tightly he thought she might break it.“Okay,” she breathed. “This is officially the worst pain I have ever experienced.”Dominic leaned close to her, his forehead touching hers.“You’re doing incredible.”Sophia shot him a look.“You say that because you’re not the one pushing a human out of your body.”Dominic laughed nervously.“Fair point.”Another contraction hit.Sophia groaned loudly.“Oh my God… okay… that one was serious.”The doctor looked up from the monitor.“Alright Sophia,” she said calmly. “Your daughter is ready to meet you.”Dominic’s eyes widened.“Wait… already?”The doctor smiled.“That’s how babies work.”Sophia squeezed his hand again.“Dominic… if you pass out I swear I will divorce you.”“I’m not passing out,” he said quickly.But his face had gone slightl

The hospital hallway was quiet except for the low hum of fluorescent lights.Dominic sat in a hard chair outside Sophia’s room, his elbows resting on his knees, his phone still in his hands. Patrick leaned against the wall across from him while Angelo paced slowly near the window.None of them had spoken for several minutes.Inside the room, Sophia slept under heavy medication. The surgery had taken hours. The doctors had done everything they could just to stabilize the damage.Dominic finally broke the silence.“They said she might never walk again.”The words felt like gravel in his throat.Patrick exhaled slowly.“They said might.”Dominic shook his head.“You didn’t see the scans.”Angelo stopped pacing.“What did they say exactly?”Dominic rubbed his face.“The femur wasn’t just broken… it shattered. The bone splintered around the joint. They had to put a rod in to hold it together.”Patrick frowned.“And?”“They said this is just the first surgery,” Dominic continued quietly. “T

The morning Hailey was leaving felt heavier than the accident itself.Sophia sat upright in the hospital bed, her leg wrapped in thick surgical braces and elevated by pillows. The room smelled faintly of antiseptic and baby powder.Courtney stood quietly near the door holding Hailey.Sophia couldn’t stop staring at her daughter.The tiny baby blinked slowly, unaware that her world was about to change.Sophia held out her arms.“Bring her to me.”Courtney walked over carefully and placed Hailey into Sophia’s arms.The moment the baby touched her chest, Sophia broke.She buried her face into Hailey’s soft blanket and inhaled deeply, memorizing the scent.“I’m so sorry,” she whispered.Dominic stood across the room, fighting the urge to step closer.If he did, he knew he would break too.Sophia kissed Hailey’s tiny forehead over and over again.“I love you so much.”Her voice trembled.“You stay safe with Grandma and Grandpa, okay?”Hailey yawned, stretching one tiny hand toward Sophia’s
