Chapter 41- My fiancé caught on camera

Elara povThe first thing I saw when I opened my eyes wasn’t the ceiling.It was my phone.And the storm waiting inside it.Notifications flooded my screen—messages, tags, missed calls, news alerts. It felt endless. Suffocating. Like the world had suddenly decided to drag me into its center and tear me apart piece by piece.My fingers trembled slightly as I unlocked it.And just like that—The headlines hit me again.“Elara Wynn: The Barren Fiancée?”“Unable to give him an heir, billionaire turns to ex-lover!”“Celyne Ward—The Woman Who Could Do What Elara Couldn’t.”My chest tightened.No.No

Chapter 42: When Everything Falls Apart

Celyne POV The air felt different today. Lighter… yet somehow heavier at the same time. I wrapped my arms around myself as I walked slowly along the quiet path, my steps unhurried, my mind far from where I was. The soft rustle of leaves and the distant hum of the city should have been calming, but my thoughts refused to settle. They never did anymore. I exhaled slowly, staring ahead without really seeing anything. Alexander. My chest tightened slightly at the thought of him. The way he had spoken to me earlier… the way he had looked at me.

Chapter 43: When Control Slips

Alexander POV The office was quiet. Too quiet. The kind of silence that usually meant control—order—everything exactly where it should be. I preferred it that way. I sat behind my desk, flipping through a stack of documents, my eyes scanning numbers and reports, but my mind… My mind wasn’t here. It was elsewhere. With her. Celyne. My jaw tightened slightly as I paused, the paper in my hand still.

Chapter 44 - Lines are drawn

Alexander POVThe dining room was silent.Unnaturally silent.The kind of silence that didn’t bring peace—but tension.Heavy.Suffocating.The soft clink of cutlery against plates echoed faintly, but no one spoke. No one dared to. It was as if the air itself was waiting… for something to break.I sat at the head of the table, my gaze fixed ahead, my expression unreadable.Elara sat to my right.Celyne… across from me.She hadn’t touched her food.Good.Because neither had I.This wasn’t dinner.This was control.And I needed it back.I placed my fork down slowly.The sound was sharp enough to draw their attention.Finally.I leaned back slightly, my eyes moving between them before settling.“We will be holding a press conference tomorrow.”My voice was calm.Too calm.Controlled.“But—”I continued before anyone could interrupt.“We will all be present.”Silence followed.Then—I looked directly at Celyne.“You,” I said, my tone shifting slightly, firmer now, “will state clearly that

Chapter 45: The Weight I Carry Alone

Celyne POVThe room felt too quiet.Too heavy.Like the silence itself was pressing down on my chest, making it harder to breathe, harder tothink, harder to exist without feeling like I was slowly breaking apart.I stood still in the middle of it, my hands trembling slightly as the echoes of dinner replayed inmy head.Alexander’s voice.Elara’s words.The looks.The accusations.Everything.All of it.They wanted me to take the fall.To stand in front of cameras and lie.To smile through it.To pretend I didn’t matter.My breath hitched.“What… am I supposed to take the fall for?” I whispered to myself.My voice cracked in the empty room.“For what?”My fingers curled tightly into my palms as the anger finally broke through the confusion.Why me?Why always me?My chest rose

Chapter 46: Under the Spotlight

Celyne POVThe lights were too bright.Blinding.Unforgiving.They burned into my skin, into my eyes, into my thoughts—like they were trying to strip me bare in front of everyone.I sat still, my hands resting on my lap, fingers tightly intertwined to hide the tremor running through them. But even then, I wasn’t sure anyone could see past the cameras, the flashes, the expectations.Or maybe they could.Maybe that was the point.To see me break.The room was packed.Voices murmured endlessly, low and restless, like a storm waiting to rise. Cameras were already flashing—rapid, relentless—capturing every breath, every blink, every shift of my expression like I was something to be studied… judged… dissected.This wasn’t a press conference.This was a trial.And I was the one on display.I swallowed slowly, my throat dry.From the corner of my eye, I spotted Clara.Seated not too far from the front.Calm.Composed.Watching.Her lips were curved into something almost like a smile—but not q

Chapter 47: A Familiar Stranger

Liam POVThe hospital room was too white.Too clean.Too lifeless in a way that made everything inside it feel heavier than it should be.The faint smell of antiseptic clung to the air—sharp, cold, and clinical—reminding me this wasn’t a place people came to live. It was where they came when something had already gone wrong.The only sound was the steady beep of the monitor.Beep… beep… beep…Like a fragile heartbeat holding everything together.On the bed, she lay still.Celyne.Too still.Her face looked different like this—stripped of everything the world had been forcing her to carry. No cameras. No whispers. No judgment. No pressure.Just her.But even in rest, she didn’t look peaceful.She looked exhausted.The kind of exhaustion that sleep alone couldn’t fix.I stood a few steps away, hands tucked into my pockets, watching her chest rise and fall slowly.Carefully.Fragile.Like one strong emotion could break her rhythm completely.The door opened behind me.A doctor stepped in

Chapter 48: Cracks Beneath Control

Alexander POVThe office door slammed shut behind me.The sound echoed sharply across the room.My hand hit the table before I could stop myself.Hard.The impact sent a dull ache through my palm, but I barely felt it.“What was that?” I muttered under my breath.My chest rose and fell unevenly.Was that a prank?Or was she serious?My jaw tightened.“What is going on…”I ran a hand through my hair, pacing.Images from the conference replayed in my mind—too fast, too loud.Celyne.Standing.Shaking.That look in her eyes—Unsteady.Fragile.Then—She fell.My steps slowed.“I was going to reach for her…” I said quietly.But I didn’t.Because Elara held me back.Her grip tightening on my arm.The sharp pinch.The silent warning.And before I could move—Someone else did.In a blink.My expression darkened instantly.“Who was that?” I muttered.The man who caught her.The one who moved without hesitation.The one who held her like she mattered.My jaw clenched.“I know it doesn’t concer

Chapter 49: Lines That Shouldn’t Be Crossed

Liam POV“Look who finally decided to show up,” I said casually.My gaze stayed on him.Unmoved.Unimpressed.“Alexander Hale.”He stepped fully into the room, his presence filling the space like he owned it.Cold.Controlled.But I could see it—That slight tension beneath the surface.“What brings you here?” I asked, leaning back slightly in my chair. “Did you suddenly remember your surrogate?”The word rolled off my tongue deliberately.Sharp.Intentional.“That’s what you call her, right?”His jaw tightened.I didn’t miss it.“Alexander…” I tilted my head slightly. “Or should I say… Kelvin?”That did it.His eyes snapped to mine.Sharp.Dangerous.“Who are you?” he asked, voice low.I chuckled softly.“What does that matter now?”I leaned forward slightly, resting my elbows on my knees.“How do you know my middle name?” he pressed.I smiled faintly.“No one knows that, right?” I said lightly. “Interesting.”A pause.Then—“What brings you here, Alex… and Mrs. Elara?”Elara stiffen

Chapter 50: The Man They Didn’t Expect

Celyne pov“Where am I?”My voice came out weak… almost like I wasn’t fully awake.Everything felt blurry. Heavy. Distant.Before Alexander could answer, Liam spoke first.“You’re in the hospital,” he said calmly. “But you’re fine.”My eyes blinked open properly now.Hospital…The word didn’t fully register at first.Then it hit me.My hand immediately went to my stomach.“What about the baby?” I asked quickly, panic rising in my chest.Liam stepped slightly closer.“The baby is fine,” he assured me. “But the doctor said you need complete rest.”His expression softened a little.“And you’ve been crying a lot lately… that’s not good for you or the baby.”I looked away immediately.My throat tightened.Because he was right.Silence followed for a moment, heavy and uncomfortable.Then—“Why are you crying, Celyne?” Liam asked gently.I shook my head quickly.“It’s nothing,” I said fast. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”But even I could hear the lie in my voice.And so could he.“You’re not,” he
