"Kaden, you can't do this to me, you can't just throw me out like that!" I stiffened back my tears, my body trembling as I stared at my husband who was holding my worst nightmare in his hands. "Matilda, we were never meant to be. Your little game is over and you need to get lost" Kaden snapped, his words cutting deep as he wrapped his hand around another woman. "Sign the papers and get out. The one who’s meant for me is here to stay just like she was supposed to," ~~~~~~ Matilda never deserved this. All she did was fall in love with the wrong man, the man who hated every single thing about her, he despised her for ruining the life he envisioned When Kaden could no longer bear it, he threw divorce papers in Matilda's face, humiliating her in front of his mistress. Six years later, Matilda returns with two identical twins who are a younger version of Kaden What happens when Kaden comes face to face with the children he never knew he had? Will Matilda let the man who shattered her heart, Into his children's lives? Or will she protect them from the man who not only despised her but humiliated her in ways she never imagined

Tilda snapped, turning her eyes in the kid's direction. I glanced at them —then back at Leo who still had his damn eyes fixed on me like I’d stolen his kidney. Why the hell was he staring like that? I still hadn’t figured out where the hell I knew him from or why he called me a monster. But honestly? I didn’t give a shit."I wasn’t talking to you," I muttered, knowing I sounded like a complete idiot. They weren’t toddlers—they heard me.But what was my business?"You can call me when you’re ready to leave," Tilda’s voice rang out, loud and clear. The kids’ eyes immediately flicked to us. One of them—Austin or Aiden—raised a brow at me, then turned to Tilda."Is Daddy leaving?" he asked.Tilda looked at me, her brows pulled in."No, big boy. Daddy’s sti
[Kaden]My heart throbbed as my eyes shifted to Tilda, she was seated on the couch, her eyes glued to the television. I could see from her eyes that she was lost in thought and not paying attention to any movie. Was she worried? Scared?I tilted my neck, staring back at my kids. Why should I care if she was hurting? She did worse, she kept my children from me for nearly six years and she had no plans of even letting me know if I didn't find out myselfThe doorbell echoed through the house, followed by the kids' squeals, pulling me out of my deep thoughts"Daddy, I think the ice cream is here," one of my boys screamed. I stared at him, my lips curling into a smile, before turning to the other one. Right now, I had no idea who was who anymore. They looked very identical"Let's go check it out then," I said softly as I rose to my feet. My eyes shifted to Tilda before I looked away, walking toward the door with the kids bouncing at my sidesI couldn't contain the happiness in me, the way
[Matilda] "What the hell do you think you’re doing?" I snapped, my jaw tightening as I glared at the man in front of me. He tilted his head slightly, that damn smirk tugging at the corners of his lips. "I don’t know what you’re talking about," Kaden murmured, the arrogance in his tone making my blood boil. I parted my lips to speak but closed them again. I inhaled deeply, swallowing the sudden lump forming in my throat. "Don’t play dumb, Kaden Donovan. What is all this? What exactly are you trying to pull?" I folded my arms tightly across my chest "Just playing the role of a father, sweetheart. What’s wrong with that?" His smirk deepened as his eyes leisurely swept over me before landing back on my face. Is he fucking serious right now? Does he think I’m stupid? "You think I’m blind? Do you think I don’t see right through your little show? But hear me clearly, Kaden—it’s not going to work. I know exactly who you are. A manipulative bastard with no conscience," I hissed, fighting
[Matilda]The moment I saw that stupid smirk on Kaden's face, something snapped inside me.He stood there, his eyes darting from me to the driver who was unloading the different kinds of toys he got. Did I fucking tell him I was about to open a kid's store, because what the hell was this man doing?I clenched my jaw hard, trying to swallow the sudden lump building in my throat. Not here, not in front of themBecause I wouldn't want my kids to see me snap the way my body was pushing me to"Kaden I asked a question, what is all this about?" My voice trembled and I hated that it did not because I was scared but because I was furious. He knew it and I saw it in the way his smile deepened, slow and smug like this was some game he was winningI looked at the twins. They were practically glowing, with wide eyes and jumping up and down like the world had just opened up and poured magic into their little handsMy jaw clenched, my heart thumping hard in my chest as different scenarios made thei
[Kaden]"Daddy! Daddy!"The sound hit me like a bullet straight to the chest. My heart did a goddamn flip, and before I even knew what I was doing, the shopping bag slipped from my fingers. I crouched instantly, arms wide open, catching my boys as they flung themselves at me.My boys.FuckI didn’t even know how to breathe.I wrapped them up in my arms like if I let go, they’d vanish. My chest tightened, and my jaw clenched so damn hard it hurt. The wave of emotion crashed over me with no warningTheir tiny arms clung to me like I was their whole world, making my heart tighten, my jaw clenching fucking hardAlmost six fucking yearsI squeezed my eyes shut as I felt one of them start to sob against my shoulder. My throat burned. My hands trembled slightly as I pulled back, holding them up to get a good look.Tears.One of them had tears rolling down his cheeks, and my heart cracked right down the middle. I couldn’t fucking speak. What was I supposed to say?"Daddy, we’ve been waiting f
[Matilda]It was almost 4 pm and the house looked like it had gone under a mini makeover. I had cleaned, rearranged, and double-checked everything—twice, or maybe three times.The kids were in their room, picking out what to wear like they were about to meet Santa and a superhero at once. They were excited, overjoyed that their Daddy would be meeting them in a few hoursMy nerves, on the other hand, were everywhere I stared at my body all over again. I was dressed in black fitted jeans and a blue top that hugged my body perfectly, with my hair tied up neatly in a ponytailMy palms were sweaty and for heaven's sake, I had no idea why I was sweatingI took a slow deep breath and glanced at the time. 3:50 pm. I made my way to the kitchen to check the cookies that I had placed in the ovenAt least courtesy demands that you make your visitor feel a bit at home, not like I love the idea of him coming here anyway but whatever"Mommy, do I look good?" Aiden's voice pierced through my ear jus
[Matilda]My eyes scanned the message in my phone as I yawned loudly, ignoring the growl in my stomach Last night I must have picked up and dropped my phone a dozen times before finally giving in and calling Kaden. I could tell that he was at least thrown off by how blunt I was and how I ended the callBut what I didn't expect was waking up to a message from him saying he'd be free this evening. So soon?"Well you wanted the kids to meet him and get it over with," I mumbled under my breath. It was still 6 am and I knew the twins were still asleep if not they could have stormed right into my bedroom"Let's get a few things done, it's Saturday," I mumbled under my breath, pushing myself off the bed, I slipped into my flip-flops, and made my way out heading to the kids' roomI chewed on my bottom lip trying to figure out where Kaden could meet the kidsHis house is a no for us, that would never be possible, and following that this is their first time meeting. I don't think a public plac
[Kaden] "What the hell was that, Kaden?" Cherry snapped as she stormed into the bedroom, slamming the door behind her. I exhaled, working my fingers around the knot of my tie, ignoring whatever nonsense she was spewing behind me. "I’m talking to you!" she barked. I closed my eyes for a second, taking a deep breath, before turning to stare back at her "Listen, Cherry, I'm tired and right now, all I need is some need peace," I muttered, sliding off my suit jacket. "I don’t give a damn about your peace right now!" she shouted. "I’m talking about that embarrassing stunt you pulled! How could you tell your accountant to block the money I requested?" "And why the hell shouldn’t I?" I snapped, my fist curling. "Don’t you think you’re pushing it? What in God’s name are you doing with that amount? It hasn’t even been two weeks since I gave you fifty million, and now you want a double of that amount?" My patience was hanging by a thread. Lately, it felt like I was staring at a stranger.
[Matilda]I took a deep breath my eyes scanning Sage who leaned back on his seatIs this a lost cause or what?"We are to win this case and I want you to do everything you can. She can't lose, it's not even an option," Leo said firmly beside meSage turned to Leo before turning his attention back to mine."You have the documents I requested for?" He asked and I nodded, pulling out the file I had in my handLeo had told me earlier that he requested some of the kid's documents, their birth certificate and school enrollment with medical recordsI stretched out the file towards him and he gave a firm nod, before pulling out the contents and going through them one after the other"I'll have them photocopied right away," He mumbled and placed a call before the lady we met earlier walked in and took the file from him after he gave her instructions on what to do"So let me understand what we are fighting for exactly," Sage said turning his attention back to mine. "He's fighting for full custo
[Matilda]"You mean he's not yet back?" I bit down on my lower lip as Julia, my best friend asked on the phone. I nodded as if she could see me, pressing my lips into a thin line."He's not back Julia, it's been a week, I'm scared I don't even know if he's okay!" My hand moved to my eyes as I wiped off the tears that were rolling down my cheeks "Don't tell me you're worried about that asshole of a man, you fucking know that he's having the best time of his life right now with that whore he calls a mistress. Tilda listen the man who made you enter that disgusting marriage is dead, don't you think it's time you leave that asshole of a husband!" Julia snapped, I shut my eyes for a moment, allowing the tears to fall freely.Yes, Mr. Black Donovan, my father-in-law, passed away a week ago, and he was the reason why I got into this marriage. Even though I knew Kaden hated me so much up until now because of what happened three years ago. Even when I was innocent of his accusations, that did...
