Ariana's pov

I didn't know when I slept off last night and I checked the other side of the bed I didn't meet Chris

But where could he be??.....

I was surprised with the way he acted yesterday.... could it be that he is still angry??.

He has never acted like this towards me before.

Could it be that he was angry about something before??

We both agreed to wait till on our wedding night..... why is he now changing is mind now.

I yawned and stood up from the bed tiredly to check up on him and know what really happened?? Or could it be awake before me??.

So I decided to walk to the sitting room and I did not see him.....I checked everywhere and I did not meet him and I was surprised.

"How come??" I thought.

But he just left the room not long ago.

Suddenly I noticed I started perceiving something...... like someone was smoking so I decided to trace the odour....... So I walked through the balcony and that was where I met him he was holding a cigarette.

"Or could it be that I am dreaming.... maybe he is not the one" I thought.

Or maybe I am not awake fully that is the reason why I am thinking he is the one.

"But he is the one, I can still recognize is side view well" I said to myself.

He was facing outside and I noticed he was staring at the sky.

But if he is the one, why would he be smoking this early morning.

As I walked towards him he still didn't notice me.

I got choked immediately and I saw the cigar in his hand.

I didn't know when I started coughing....

And that was when he noticed me.

And he turned immediately.

I was very surprised because I have never seen such a thing in his hand before.

But why?? Why didn't I notice that he smoked.

"you..... you smoke??" I asked him.

"Yes once in a while" he replied.

"But why?? And why have you not mentioned it to me before" I asked.

" It was because I don't know how you would feel.... since you've figured it out by yourself now, no problem" he said.

"Am sorry" he said.

"Sorry?? Sorry for what??" I asked him.

"Am sorry for shouting at you.... is just that I was in the mood that time" he said.

"Ok no problem.... have forgiven you since, moreover you did not offend me but am still pissed at you for not telling me this" I said.

"I know and am sorry" he said and drew me closer.

"You know I love you right" he asked.

And I nodded.

And he pecked me on my cheek.

"No matter what he does ,I will always love him" I thought.

Kidwell's pov

The next morning......

The blaring sound of my alarm woke me up, so I woke up tiredly and stood up from the bed.

I quickly entered the bathroom and brushed my teeth, after I finished brushing.... .I removed my clothes and I bathed.

After I finished bathing I picked up my arranged clothes and wore them

After I finished wearing my clothes I left the house.

"No breakfast this morning because I have not employed a new maid so I am going to eat at work" I thought and shook my head.

I entered my car and drove straight to the office.

Immediately I entered my office,I received an email to work on a file and submitted it.

And I started working on it....

After I finished working on it,I stood up and left the office so I could deliver the file.

Husband's Affair, My Loss

I stared at the pregnancy test in my trembling hands, hardly daring to breathe. The morning sunlight streamed through our kitchen window, casting a golden glow across the marble countertop where I'd placed the test after the longest three minutes of my life. Two pink lines. My heart skipped, then raced as tears welled in my eyes. After months of trying, of temperature tracking and disappointments, of Michael's reassuring hugs and whispered "next times," it had finally happened. I was pregnant. We were going to have a baby. "Oh my God," I whispered, pressing a hand to my still-flat stomach. Inside me grew the tiny beginning of our family—Michael's eyes, maybe my smile, a perfect blend of us both. Michael.

The scent of garlic and tomatoes filled our tiny kitchen as I stirred the sauce, watching Lucas chop onions with methodical precision. After a nine-hour shift at the café, my feet ached, but there was something soothing about our evening ritual—cooking together in this cramped space we called home. "How was work?" Lucas asked, his voice gentle as always. Three years of living together, and he still asked every day. "The usual. Mrs. Henderson complained about her coffee being too hot, then too cold." I smiled, remembering the ornery old woman who secretly left generous tips. "How about your day?" Lucas shrugged, his broad shoulders rising beneath his faded t-shirt. "Meetings. Phone calls.

Reborn Heiress: My Ex-Husband's Ruin

8.6

Genevieve was heavily pregnant, holding the legal papers that would transfer her massive family trust fund to her loving husband, Clinton. But as she approached his study, she heard a familiar giggle. Through the cracked door, she saw her cousin Carolynn sitting on his desk, her skirt hiked up, while Clinton smirked and poured bourbon. "Once she signs those papers, we don't need her anymore," Clinton laughed coldly. "The kidnapping is staged for tomorrow. She and the brat disappear permanently." Genevieve gasped, and he spotted her. When she frantically tried to run, her trusted housekeeper blocked the stairs. Clinton dragged her back, beat her mercilessly, and locked her in a freezing, underground cellar. Denied any medical help, she endured agonizing hours of labor alone in the dark, only to deliver a stillborn child. Clinton then walked in, ruthlessly tossed her dead baby's tiny body into a pile of dirty rags, and brutally strangled her. As her lungs burned and the world faded to black, her heart shattered into a million jagged pieces. She had given him everything. How could they be so monstrous as to murder her and her innocent child just for money? Opening her eyes again, the freezing cellar was gone. She was standing in an emerald silk gown at an elite charity gala—the exact night their original kidnapping plot began, a month before she even announced her pregnancy. This time, the naive socialite was dead, and she was going to make them pay in blood.
