Accidentally Married to my Ex-Boyfriend’s Father Chapter 1
~ Sophia I drove like a madwoman, my eyes glued to the road, heart pounding in my chest, and my hands gripping the steering wheel with a death grip. The sound of the engine roaring as I sped down the highway matched the frantic thumping of my pulse. Ethan's birthday gifts were stacked precariously in the back seat, swaying with every sharp turn and swerve I made. The cake, that perfectly frosted masterpiece, wobbled dangerously close to the edge, threatening to plunge onto the floor at any moment.I glanced in the rearview mirror and saw the cake tilting, dangerously close to disaster. Without thinking, I reached back with one hand, my fingers barely brushing the edge of the cake box, trying to pull it closer to the seat. My focus wavered, eyes flicking between the road and the back seat, anxiety bubbling in my chest. That was when it happened.I heard the screeching of tires, the high-pitched squeal that sent my stomach plummeting. The jarring impact followed immediately, throwing

~SophiaMy heart was in pieces, shattered beyond repair, as I stumbled out of Ethan's apartment. Every step felt heavier than the last, and my body moved on autopilot, numb and disconnected from my racing mind. I didn't even realize I was trembling until my hands struggled to fit the key into the ignition of my car.With a shaky breath, I turned the key, and the engine roared to life. As I drove through the city, the lights and sounds blurred together, creating a dizzying kaleidoscope of colors that matched the chaos swirling inside me. I didn’t know where I was going, but that didn’t matter. All I knew was that I had to get away.Away from the pain. Away from the betrayal that suffocated me, threatening to pull me under.The streets stretched on endlessly, and somewhere in the distance, a neon sign flashed in the night—a club. Without thinking, I swerved into the parking lot, tires screeching against the pavement. I had no plan, no intention other than to drown myself in noise and fo

~ SophiaI woke up to the familiar sound of my phone buzzing on the nightstand. Stretching lazily, I felt surprisingly well-rested despite the emotional chaos of the previous night. Groggily, I grabbed the phone, not expecting to hear my sister’s voice so early."Hey, Sophia! Guess what?" Martha's excited voice burst through the line, "Alex and I are going to the Maldives tomorrow! We're taking his private jet, and we want you to come with us. It’s going to be amazing—what do you say?"My eyes widened as the words sank in. "The Maldives? Are you serious? I’ve always wanted to go there!" My voice rose in excitement. "Of course I’m in!"The moment I hung up the phone, a rush of excitement flooded my body. The Maldives—the dream destination with its pristine white-sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and luxurious overwater villas—was finally within my grasp. I could hardly believe it.I shot out of bed and made a beeline for my closet, grabbing my suitcase in a frenzy. Dresses,

~NathanielThe wine tasting event was in full swing, the room buzzing with laughter and conversation. Glasses clinked as people swirled, sniffed, and savored the various wines on offer. The air was thick with the rich scents of oak, berries, and aged grapes, each sip offering a different layer of complexity. The atmosphere was alive with energy, as guests mingled, comparing notes on the subtle differences between the reds and whites.Among all the excitement, my attention kept drifting to Sophia. She was effortlessly captivating, her movements graceful and poised. Every time she lifted her glass to her lips, there was a delicate elegance in the way she savored the wine, her expression shifting as she contemplated the flavors. I found myself lost, watching her with an intensity I hadn’t felt in a long time.At one point, she caught me staring. A blush crept across her cheeks, a soft shade of pink that only made her more irresistible. She offered a shy smile before quickly diverting her

~ Sophia A few days had passed since our impulsive wedding, and we were both still basking in the glow of our new status as a married couple. As we prepared to leave the Maldives, the resort staff gathered around us, their smiles wide and their eyes twinkling."Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. James ," one of the staff said warmly, her voice filled with genuine happiness. "May your love and happiness shine as bright as the sun and be as clear as the waters of the Maldives."We both responded in unison, "Thank you," our voices mingling in harmony.Martha and Alex approached us, their arms full of luggage and their faces beaming with joy."Well, look at you two lovebirds," Martha said, her eyes dancing with mischief. "A spontaneous Maldives wedding, who would've thought?"She pulled me aside, lowering her voice to a whisper. "So, what’s next for you two crazy kids? What's the big plan now?"I couldn’t help but laugh, feeling a blush rise in my cheeks. "Who knows?" I replied, my voice li

~SophiaThe tension in the room was thick like a storm brewing on the horizon. Nathaniel stood tall, his commanding presence filling the space, but his eyes were on me, searching for answers I wasn’t ready to give. Across from him, Ethan’s face twisted in anger, his fists clenched tightly as though he were fighting the urge to explode. My heart raced as Ethan’s glare burned into me. I had expected a confrontation, but this… this felt like a battleground. “How about you clap for yourself, Sophia, my almighty step mother, indeed?” Ethan’s voice cut through the silence, sharp and unforgiving. He wasn’t just angry—he was furious, betrayed, and confused. Before I could answer, Nathaniel spoke, his voice steady. “Ethan, that’s enough.” Ethan ignored him, his focus entirely on me. “Did you think you could just waltz in here and play house? Is that what this is to you?” His voice dripped with disdain. I opened my mouth to respond, but Ethan wasn’t finished. “This whole situation i

~SophiaThe warmth of the Jacuzzi wrapped around me like a soothing embrace, washing away the tension of the evening. As the gentle bubbles massaged my skin, my mind wandered to the chaotic series of events that had led me here. When Nathaniel and I exchanged vows on that sun-kissed beach in the Maldives, I had told myself it was a mistake. An impulsive, reckless mistake. I’d planned to annul the marriage the moment we returned. But now, as I leaned back against the tub, the truth settled in my chest with surprising clarity: I didn’t want to annul it. Ethan had made sure of that. His arrogance, his audacity to cheat on me with Sarah, my so-called best friend, and then call me a gold digger? I laughed bitterly at the thought. No, Ethan deserved every ounce of this. He would regret what he did to me—every day for the rest of his life. And the irony? Nathaniel. Ethan’s father. That twist of fate was too delicious not to savor. The bathroom door creaked open, pulling me from my th

~SophiaThe limousine glided smoothly through the bustling streets, its plush leather seats and darkened windows cocooning us in a private world of luxury. I leaned back, my gaze fixed on the diamond ring in my hand, the way it sparkled under the soft interior lights. It wasn’t just a ring; it was a statement. A reminder of how drastically my life had changed in just a few short weeks. I turned the ring slowly between my fingers, my heart swelling with disbelief and excitement. “Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d become a trophy wife to a billionaire,” I muttered to myself, shaking my head. Nathaniel, seated across from me, chuckled, his deep voice resonating in the enclosed space. “Trophy wife?” he teased, his lips curving into a sly smile. “Is that how you see yourself, Mrs. James ?” I looked up at him, my cheeks warming. “I mean, look at this ring, Nathaniel. It probably costs more than my entire existence.” He leaned forward, his elbows resting on his knees as he

Accidentally Married to my Ex-Boyfriend’s Father Chapter 55
~NathanielThe moment I stepped into my bedroom, I loosened my tie, exhaling deeply. The dinner had been exhausting—hours of forced smiles, polite greetings, and pretending I gave a damn about Isabella’s grand return. If it were up to me, I would have canceled the entire affair. But appearances had to be maintained. The public expected it. The media expected it. And most of all, Isabella expected it. But none of that mattered now. Because as I stood there, unbuttoning the top of my shirt, she walked in. Sophia. Still draped in that orange gown that had my entire world tilting on its axis. My eyes followed her every move, drinking her in like a man starved. The way the dress hugged her curves, the way her hips swayed ever so slightly with each step—it was like she knew exactly what she was doing to me. Damn her. She glanced at me, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "What?" I smirked, tossing my tie onto the chair. "You know what." Her laughter was soft, teasing. "I

~NathanielIf it were up to me, this dinner wouldn't be happening. But I didn’t have the luxury of making that choice—not when the entire city expected it. A powerful man like me couldn’t afford to be seen as ungrateful, especially when my ex-wife—no, my wife—had returned after years of absence. The public had to see this as a joyous reunion, a celebration of family. So here I was, hosting an elaborate dinner party in honor of Isabella’s return, putting on a show for the world. The grand dining hall was alight with golden chandeliers, their crystals glinting in the soft glow of candlelight centerpieces. Laughter and chatter filled the air, accompanied by the soft melody of a string quartet playing in the corner. Guests dressed in their finest attire mingled, sipping wine and exchanging pleasantries. The scent of roasted lamb, honey-glazed vegetables, and freshly baked bread wafted through the room, mingling with the rich aroma of aged wine. And then, there was Sophia. Dressed in

~SophiaI stood outside, tapping my foot against the tiled porch, my arms crossed as I glared at the empty backyard. The sun was setting, casting a golden glow over the mansion, but I was too irritated to enjoy the view. The maids had forgotten—again—to take Lily’s clothes out of the laundry before closing for the day. I huffed, mumbling under my breath as I bent down to pick up the small basket of half-dried clothes. “I swear, if I have to remind them one more time—” A gust of wind blew past me, making one of Lily’s tiny dresses slip from the basket. It was almost on the ground when— A hand caught it. I froze. My eyes followed the hand, trailing up the long fingers, the muscular arm, the broad chest… until I met a pair of familiar hazel eyes. Ethan. My grip on the basket tightened. Of all the people I expected to see here, he was the last. I stepped forward and yanked the dress from his hand. “I’ve got it,” I muttered. Ignoring him, I continued gathering Lily’s cl

~EthanI stood in the parking lot, hands stuffed into my pockets, trying to steady my nerves. The sun was setting, casting an orange glow over the house. Nathaniel had just arrived home, stepping out of his sleek black car when I called out to him. “Dad,” I said, my voice firm. “I need to talk to you.” Nathaniel raised a brow, shutting his car door with a thud. “Sounds serious.” “It is.” He studied me for a moment before nodding. “Alright. Let’s talk inside.” I followed him into the house, my heart pounding with every step. I had been waiting for this conversation for a long time. Waiting for the truth. We stepped into the living room, but just as I opened my mouth to speak, my breath caught in my throat. Sophia. She was walking down the grand staircase, her soft curls bouncing with each step, her delicate hands brushing against the railing. But that wasn’t what made my heart stop. It was the dress. A silky, emerald-green dress that fit her perfectly. A dress I

~NathanielThe faint hum of the air conditioning filled my office, blending with the rhythmic tapping of my fingers on the mahogany desk. Jeremy, my assistant, sat across from me, a notepad in his hand and that perpetually eager look on his face. "Sir, we’ve confirmed the deal with Harrington Enterprises. The papers just need your signature," he said, sliding the folder toward me. I flipped it open, scanning the pages. "Good. This partnership has been long overdue. Anything else on the agenda?" Jeremy cleared his throat. "There’s also the charity gala next week. Mrs. James asked if you’d be willing to give the opening speech." I couldn’t help but smile at the mention of Sophia. "Of course. Let her know I’ll handle it." Jeremy nodded, scribbling on his notepad. "And about the—" The door swung open suddenly, cutting him off. My gaze darted up, and there she was—Isabella. She stepped in like she owned the room, her hips swaying with deliberate confidence. Her figure was wra

~EthanI carried the small tray with my mother’s pills balanced in one hand, a glass of water in the other. I’d made this same trip every day since she came back, but today felt different. This morning, she’d looked pale and fragile, like someone made of glass. She’d barely said a word when I checked on her earlier, lying there under the covers, barely moving.But now... The moment I opened the door to her room, I froze. There she was, sitting on the edge of her bed, brushing her hair with deliberate care. But she didn’t look like the mother I’d grown used to these past two days. No, this version of her was something else entirely—alive, radiant, like she’d stepped straight out of a memory from 25 years ago. Her skin glowed, her hair shimmered like spun gold, and the dark circles that had clung to her eyes were gone. She looked... young. Beautiful. Not like the woman who had stumbled back into our lives, broken and distant. The tray in my hands wobbled. She noticed me then, he

~SophiaThe phone rested between my shoulder and ear as I paced the living room, trying to organize the mess of toys Lily had scattered everywhere. Martha’s voice crackled on the other end. "So, how are you feeling about it? I mean... Nathaniel’s ex-wife is back. That’s a lot to deal with," Martha asked, her voice laced with curiosity and concern. I rolled my eyes, placing one of Lily’s stuffed bears on the shelf. "I’m unbothered, honestly. I know why she’s here, Martha. It’s obvious she’s here to fight me, but she’s wasting her time." "You think so?" Martha’s skepticism was evident. "I thought they said she went missing years ago?" I sighed, picking up another stuffed animal from the floor. "That’s the story they told everyone, but Nathaniel told me the truth. She left on her own, Martha. She just walked out on him—no warning, no explanation. It was never his fault. And now she’s back, probably because she found out that I’m married to Nathaniel now. And you know the craziest

~NathanielThe morning sunlight streamed into the dining room, highlighting the polished surface of the table set for breakfast. Sophia sat to my right, Lily to my left, her small legs swinging back and forth as the maids moved swiftly, placing dishes of food before us. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee, warm pastries, and sizzling bacon filled the air. Lily clapped her hands in excitement as her plate was set down. “Pancakes!” she squealed, her smile lighting up the room. I chuckled, watching her dig in. “Do you like them, princess?” I asked, cutting into my own stack of pancakes. “I love them!” she said between bites. “Uncle Nate, can we have these every day?” I grinned. “If that’s what you want, consider it done. What about the clothes I got for you yesterday? Did you like those too?” Her eyes lit up, syrup dripping from her fork. “Yes! Especially the sparkly shoes. I felt like a princess!” I laughed, feeling a sense of pride swell in my chest. “Well, you are a princes

~NathanielI clenched my fists at my sides, the words catching in my throat. She was playing a game—she always played games—but I wasn’t the same man she used to manipulate. Still, seeing her here in my home, addressing me as if nothing had happened, had me completely off balance. "I’ll ask you again," I said, my voice low and sharp this time. "What are you doing here?" I stood there, my feet planted firmly on the hardwood floor, watching Isabella’s lips curl into a smile that had once made my world spin. Now, it felt like a dagger piercing the calm I had finally built in my life. "What are you doing in my house, Isabella?" I asked again, my voice sharper this time. She didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she stood, staring at me with an unreadable expression, the silence stretching until it became unbearable. Then, with a slow, deliberate turn, she headed for the door. I frowned, following her movement as she opened it and gestured outside. Moments later, a man in a black s
