Chapter 88: Two Weeks Later
Narrated by Emily:The big day has arrived. You may be wondering which day I'm referring to. It's quite simple. Today is the day I will expose all of Peyton's lies.I told her that I had planned a baby shower for my grandson. She's very excited about what I supposedly prepared.I have the venue where all the guests will gather, not that there are many, only the ones who are genuinely interested."Peyton's friend" Mason will be there, along with Ethan, Sarah, Riley, and my husband. I sent an invitation to Paige, but she confirmed that she won't attend. I explained to her that it's not what she thinks, but she still didn't want to come.I hope that when everything is over, I can explain to her why it took so long to expose this woman who pretends to love my son and a family that was never close to forming with him.In my bag, I have the DNA sample with the result. Even during this time that has passed, I managed to obtain the DNA from her friend, the neighbor. As for the doctor, he didn
Chapter 89: The Signing
Narrated by Mason:The day has arrived. Finally, I will see Paige again. I feel excited, sad, and angry all at once. I wish things could have been different between us, but I can't do anything to change the past.I look at myself in the mirror of our bedroom, where I still sleep, trying to sense her scent. Even though there's nothing left, I refuse to stop sleeping here, at least until Peyton moves in. I've thought about permanently closing this room and using the one next to it for us. That way, the one next to it will be for the baby. I hope Peyton won't mind that.The pregnancy is progressing well. She hasn't had any pain, and her next check-up is in two weeks.I'm on my way to the meeting with my lawyer and Paige and her lawyer. I'm really anxious to see her.I get out of the car and walk faster than I intend to, just so I can see her. As I enter, I spot her from a distance. She looks even more beautiful than before if that's even possible.She hasn't noticed my presence, so I tak
Chapter 90: Cold
Narration: PaigeUpon my arrival, my friends greet me at the airport. Sarah starts crying and hugs me tightly. I don't say anything; her pregnancy has made her very emotional, at least that's what Ethan has told me through messages.Riley is as usual, she's not as affectionate as Sarah. I greet them both and we head to Sarah's house. I'm surprised to see that they have everything planned out, even the lawyer has her own room in this house.At Emily's house, my friend and Mason's father are waiting for me. I greet them both with hugs, and what can I say about Simba? He's thrilled to be with the people he missed. It hurts to see certain things, like my baby being happier here than with me. Despite having space and the ocean to run and enjoy, I feel like he's happier being with everyone here than being with me. It's something I've been contemplating, it hurts to face the truth, but it's an option I will consider when I leave.They update me on my friend's pregnancy news, show me the phot
Chapter 91: Mason
Narrating Mason:After seeing her enter the office and being alone with her, I try to apologize and explain that I fell in love with her, but I couldn't do anything about Peyton's pregnancy. It was something that slipped through my fingers. However, she gets upset and doesn't let me finish talking.There's no point in insisting anymore. She's completely different from who she was before, and I understand that she had to move on. It's the least she can do.I decide not to say anything and just continue working, or rather, bringing her up to date on the company. We have already signed the divorce papers; we are now ex-spouses.I don't know how long we've been here discussing work matters. All I know is that her stomach growled, indicating she was hungry, and I offered to take her out for a meal. It was predictable that she would refuse.We say our goodbyes because she's going to have lunch with Sarah, and I received a call from Peyton. Paige caught a glimpse of Peyton's name on the scre
Chapter 92: Paige
Paige narrates. I find myself at Sarah's house, eating while I look at her, annoyed that she left me alone with Mason. Although she insists that she didn't do it with bad intentions, she just remembered that she had things to do, as if I were foolish.I don't plan on going back to the office. Luckily, Mason explained the most important things to me, and now I understand and can handle all the company matters. Now I'm contemplating whether it would be a good idea to run things from here or from there.The good thing about being the owner is that I can come in only for important matters and manage the company from Brazil or the other option is to stay here and handle everything from here. I could do it, but it's not the best option, at least not for now. My heart is still healing, and I can't just stay, and watch Mason be happy and become a father with that woman.The next day...A new day begins, and my lawyer informs me that she is returning home today. It surprises me because I tho
Chapter 93: One Month Later
Narrated by MasonIt has been a few weeks, exactly four, and Peyton is stressing me out with the house move. The truth is, I've been trying to create as many obstacles as possible to avoid living in that place. However, she's determined to have that house.Through Ethan, I found out that my now ex-wife went back to where she was living, a place that I still don't know about by her orders. I can't see her social media because she deleted me from all of them, but despite the time that has passed, she still occupies my heart entirely.My mother has been visiting Peyton and helping me come up with excuses to live in my own house. She even offered her a better one as a wedding gift, but Peyton is not convinced to accept it.Simba stayed with my parents. Paige left him with them because she didn't think it was fair to take him away and separate him from everyone. That's good because it means she has to visit him from time to time, which works well for me. Although my mother will know when s
Chapter 94: Surprise!
Narrated by Peyton:My pregnancy is going well. I haven't had any problems so far, and it continues that way. Mason spends more time at the office than at home. Well, I can't really call it home because that jerk still hasn't taken me to live where I asked him to. On the other hand, my beloved mother-in-law comes to see me almost every day. She offers to keep me company, or if I want to go shopping, she's available and willing to do whatever I want.I don't fully trust what she shows me. No matter how hard she tries, I won't trust her. I'm sure she still misses and adores her Paige. I don't believe anything she says about the affection she claims to feel for me.I'm convinced that Mason hasn't stopped loving that woman, and that's why he doesn't want us to move into that house. That's why he makes up excuses for us not to get married yet. It has been a month since he got divorced, and I'm very annoyed that he hasn't asked me to marry him.Everything has a limit, and mine is reaching i
Chapter 95: What Are You Hiding, Mother?
Narrated by Mason:After Peyton's phone call, I had only a few minutes to come up with a plan. The first person I call is my mother; she's the only one who can help me in this situation. She has been visiting Peyton as much as possible and building a friendship with her.I explain the problem I'm facing, and she suggests that the best thing I can do is buy a new house, or she can gift us one so that we don't have to live in the same house where I lived with Paige. I like her plan, but I'm not sure if it can be achieved.She proposes that I tell Peyton I'm organizing a surprise wedding for us and that I'll take her to a paradise island. I have no idea where that is, but my mother has many friends and partners through the charitable campaigns she participates in with various foundations. Surely, she will help me arrange everything.Furthermore, she tells me that she will buy us a house because she doesn't want us to live in the same one where I was happy with Paige. I support her decisi
