Housewife Story Novels & Stories

She couldn’t help but wonder how many unspoken histories were buried in this family — and how many were about to surface. The castle grew taller, Rachel squealing each time the tide kissed the base. To passersby, they looked like a picture-perfect family sharing a simple joy. But under the hum of the waves, the truth pressed heavy — one man’s longing, one woman’s refusal, and a child unknowingly stitching them together in ways neither could escape. The waves had begun to calm, rolling gently as if the ocean itself wanted to listen. Francesca spread out the cooler’s contents onto the mat — fried rice, grilled chicken wings, plantain, and bottles of malt sweating in the sun.

I catch myself and regain my balance in order to avert the disaster in mid-collision. Mrs. Morales is a petite woman with a blue tint to her hair. She's what I like to refer to as "old money." She is the epitome of a professional widow, with incredible stories about each marriage. Her husbands died and left everything to her... all six of them. I'm not one to speculate, but I'm curious if all of their deaths were as natural as she claims.Maybe it's because I watch too many crime shows. Each man she married had a higher net worth than the previous one. She freely spends her money on her dog and whatever new boy toy she picks up for the evening because she has no children.

Beside her, Adrian showed no visible reaction whatsoever, as though being interrogated at dinner was a completely normal part of his routine. William shook his head lightly. “When I proposed to my wife, I spent three entire weekends following her through boutiques pretending to have opinions about lace.” “You complained the entire time,” Evelyn corrected calmly before taking another sip of wine. “That’s not the point.” “It seems very relevant to the point.” Selena bit the inside of her cheek to stop herself from laughing. Somehow, hearing William Kingston casually talk about arguing with his wife over wedding dresses felt surreal. This was still the same man capable of making half the countr

Alina shook her head faintly. “No.” A pause. “I’m just no longer pretending it didn’t hurt.” Silence. Heavy. Then Lucien noticed something else. Ethan was watching from across the room. Waiting. Patient. Interested. Something dark moved instantly through Lucien’s expression again. Possessiveness. Sharp and immediate. “She’s still my wife,” he said suddenly. Alina looked at him for a long second. Then calmly replied, “Only on paper.” That answer hit him harder than expected. Because she said it without emotion.

“The reason is simple. When her ‘lawful husband’ slandered me while she physically assaulted me, my family arrived in time.” I raised my right hand. The faint scar on my wrist was clearly visible under the high-definition camera’s close-up feature. “This is the ‘love’ she left me as a memento.” The press conference fell into a deathly silence. Then erupted into unprecedented chaos. “Fake marriage certificate? “Cheating on her husband while deceiving her amnesiac boyfriend?” “Illegal confinement? Intentional assault? This is a crime!” Public opinion flipped instantly. Eira, stationed at the estate gate, watched it all unfold through her phone livestream. The color drained from her face.

> "I'm the cold, detached wife. I'm the emotionally unavailable physician who spent more time in the trauma bays than in her own home. I was entirely too focused on my own career advancement to notice a lonely, neglected husband." Thelma looked utterly crushed. The absolute silence that followed was all the confirmation I required. I nodded slowly, the pieces of the puzzle locking into perfect alignment. The script practically wrote itself. The highly successful, unyielding female doctor; the busy, neglectful mother; the tragic, cast-aside husband who simply fell into the arms of a warm, supportive young woman. You could almost hear the whispers spreading through the manicured lawns of River

“I have something important for you.” He hurried back upstairs. I watched him go, a small smile on my lips. He was the only reason I still returned to this house. Aside from him and my stepsister, all that remained were vultures disguised as family. “Hello, Mrs. Vivian,” I said, turning toward my stepmother. She acted like she hadn’t even noticed me. “Oh, I thought I wasn’t important enough for you to greet,” she replied coldly. My chest tightened, anger rising, but I forced it down and kept my expression calm.

' A somewhat displeased smile crossed her face as she looked at me. Suddenly, without pausing for a breath, he spat out the following in rapid succession: 'Zara and I met on a work trip, fell in love, and here we are, married.' He didn't even bother to fill me in on the details of our alleged love story, but I can't help but wonder why he lied to his grandmother. Why didn't he tell her we met last night and that our marriage is a contract? What was he upto? 'Now that sounds like a wonderful love story, should we go speak to the media?' Mrs. Irene Colton remarked in a sarcastic tone. She rose from her chair and began to leave the room.

Evelyn sat on the edge of the bed. “You've called me three times in twenty minutes.” “I had a reason.” “What happened?” There was a pause. Then the woman on the other end spoke. “I'm coming home in a few days.” Evelyn sat up. “What?” “You heard me. I'll be back in a few days.” “You said you weren't coming back yet.” “I changed my mind.” Evelyn stood. “Why?” The woman's voice became serious. “Because I just heard Damien Schrett is getting married.”

Maybe he has his reasons. As a newly wedded wife, I waited for my husband in our magnificent room. One thing I didn't mention earlier, is that the Williams are extraordinarily rich. Am still amazed, how a poor street girl like me got to become the daughter in-law of this multi-billion household, their gigantic mansion looks like a castle.
