Estranged Wife Novels & Stories

Witness intimidated. The date at the top was five years old—the same year her own life had disintegrated, and the same year her brother, Hogan, was imprisoned for a murder he hadn't committed. The realization hit her like a physical blow: Darius hadn't been investigating Hogan’s case out of charity. He had been hunting the same shadow that had destroyed his own happiness. A mechanical hum signaled the front gates. Panic surged; she shoved the binder back into its hidden corner and fled to the nursery, the only room that felt anchored in the future.

“Lila told me. You’re barren. You’ve been lying to me for years.” The accusation sliced through me deeper than the divorce papers ever could. He believes her. He actually believes her. I looked at him. The man I’d married five years ago was gone. In his place was a stranger with his father’s eyes. Cold. Calculating. Ruthless. The pregnancy test in my pocket felt like lead.

She moved her silk embroidered clutch to her other hand, while she continued to avoid eye contact with Conner.

Could it be that someone else entirely, and not Sandra Ashbourne, was the true target of that warning message? My brain ponders the puzzle, my thoughts racing as my fingers grip my leather jacket. The term 'little lady' didn't just apply to Sandra's petite frame; there was also my estranged, legal wife whom my family forced me to marry—the female I had never once met in person and whose empty marriage contract my status had used to ward off Sade Wintermere's aggressive advances.
