"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

I growled, dropping the pan with a loud clatter"Ma'am, it's Aiden, he's...he's been vomiting and his body is so hot, I don't know what to do," Ella's voice was breathless, panic raising every word. "I tried cooling him down with a cold towel, but it's not working, it's just getting worse,"A sharp breath left my lips before she could finish, I was already ripping my apron off"Everything okay what's wrong?" Julia's voice cut in as she stepped in front of me"Ella please stay with him, I'm coming right away!" I hung up the phone, my eyes darting around for my car key, my fingers trembled as I patted the counter, my pocket —where the hell was it?"Talk to me, what happened?" Julia grabbed my shoulder, keeping me in place"Aiden—he's sick," I choked out, my pulse hammering in my ears. He was fine this morning before I
[Matilda]The upcoming baking showcase was fast approaching and I would say I was becoming a bit excited about itIt's three days away and managing my bakery which has somehow turned into the neighborhood's daily obsession and perfecting the signature desserts I planned to bake live, I barely had a second to breathe The two part-timers I had interviewed a few days ago weren't exactly what I was looking for and I ended up not hiring them. Now, I could only hope I'd find someone soon because handling everything alone was tearing me out "Are you done?" Julia's voice snapped me out of my thoughts as she strolled into the mini kitchen of my store. She had dropped by to help me out since today was her off dayI had closed the bakery for the day but I needed to practice for the baking showcase. They say practice makes perfect, isn't it? And while I believed in my skills, this wasn't just any event. It was an exclusive showcase featuring NYC's top pastry chefs "What's on your mind, young w
[Matilda] My stomach dropped. My eyes darted from Leo to the kids who had their eyes fixed on the food "Let's talk later!" I mumbled and Leo's eyes narrowed before he nodded, turning his attention back to his food I bit down on my lower lip as I tried to take another bite of my food but my appetite was already messed up. I could see Leo from my peripheral vision staring at me now and then Once we were done eating, I cleared the plate. Leo who I knew was eager to know the reason the kids weren't going to school, helped me out as we cleared the dining. I could feel his eyes boring into mine but I didn't say a word to him as I focused on washing the dishes "You're not saying anything?" Leo's voice pulled me out of my trance. I ignored him, wrapping a few left over the nanny would warm up for the kids later I turned to Leo who had his eyes fixed on mine, his brows creasing together "Why are my boys not going to school? Did something happen at school?" I took a deep breath, swallowi
[Matilda]The next day"Mummy someone's at the door, I think it's our teacher!" Aiden's voice rang out from the dining roomI frowned, glancing at my watch. It was only 7 am. The teacher and Nanny weren't supposed to arrive until 9. Why would they come this early? I wiped my hands on the napkin and quickly carried the kid's breakfast to the dining before heading toward the doorAs I stepped into the living room, my feet frozeCould it be...?" My heart pounded hard in my chest as the thought of who it could be crossed my mind. It can't be Kaden right?The doorbell rang again, snapping me out of my trance. What am I even doing, when I can just check through the peepholeI wiped my sweaty palms against my dress and stepped closer. Pressing my lips into a thin line - I peeked through the hole — only to find nothing My brow creased even further as I stared again and still no oneIf this happens to be Kaden, I would fucking call the authorities on him. I gripped the door handle, pushing
[Matilda]"Mummy, why are we not going to school today?" Aiden asked me as I set their breakfast on the table. His big silver eyes, locked onto mine waiting for an answerI hesitated, glancing at Austin who was already digging into his food, completely unbothered. Taking a slow deep breath, I pulled out a chair and sat down"Because you're going to be schooling from home for now baby," "Really?" Austin perked up instantly, his face lightening up. "Does that mean I can watch swimming sessions and Spiderman at home, yeah!" He grinned, stuffing a forkful of pancake into his mouth Aiden's brows pulled together, his lips pressing into a pout. "But Mummy I don't want that. I want to go to school so I can see my friends," His voice carried a stubborn edgeGod, I knew this would be hardCall me a coward — I wouldn't mind, but was I scared of what Kaden could do? YesI could report the incident that happened last time to the school and make sure my kids are protected. But his last words befo
[Kaden] My fingers tapped against the bar counter as I tilted my neck from side to side trying to shake off the tension tightening my muscles "They are better off without a father," my jaw clenched tightly as Matilda's words echoed in my head She's fucking playing with fire and I'll make sure it burns her deeply I'll make sure she never sees Aiden and Austin again. She'll know exactly how it feels "So what exactly are you trying to say?" Ryan snapped, pulling me from my thoughts. "And could you stop fuming? This is the mother of your children for crying out loud!" His words made my jaw clench so tight, I could hear my teeth gritting Ryan will always find a way to defend her. Even after I laid everything out —told them exactly what happened a few hours ago, he was still on her side I exhaled sharply, shifting my eyes to Mason who had been silent the entire time, before shifting my gaze back to Ryan "Did you just say mother of my kids?" I growled, and Ryan raised a brow at me l
[Matilda] "Fuck off!" I shoved my hand away from the bastard in front of me and pushed my door open. I stepped in and banged the door shut My heart was thumping as I clicked on the door, making sure it was locked. I took long strides towards the stairs, heading straight to my room The moment I reached my bed, my body gave out, and I collapsed onto the mattress. Tears poured down my face, ragged sobs shaking my entire frame "No!! No!! This isn't happening!" My heart pounded louder in my ears, as I clutched my chest tightly. He did... He did a DNA test. How could this man? How did I not think about this? My vision blurred as the words on that paper burned themselves into my brain, looping over and over like a curse Paternity test between Kaden Donovan and the twins, Aiden and Austin: 99.98% What does he mean by the hard way? Would he forcefully try to snatch my children from me? I know Kaden Donovan would likely walk out freely with anything, but this isn't happening I d
[Kaden]"You're insane, I said they are not...," Before she could finish her statement, with a flick of my wrist, I threw the envelope to her, watching as it landed on her feetHer eyes darted to it. She stared at me and then back to the envelopeI could feel my anger burning as I chuckled"Go the fuck on and check what that is, you fucking selfish thing!" I roaredShe inhaled deeply, her eyes flickering back to me again before she snatched it off the ground, rolling her eyes, she tore the envelope immediately. Her eyes scanned the paper, a mixture of shock and disbelief danced in her orbs but the next thing she did suddenly caught me off guardShe threw her head back, her hand tightening on the paper as she laughed hysterically, making my brows crease together"This is insane, oh what the fuck is wrong with this man!" Tilda scoffed, shaking her head as she stared back at me. "You think I'll give you a listening ear for this trash. Tell me, since when does DNA happen without both par
[Matilda] "I've been trying to reach you since last night!" I leaned my back on the kitchen cabinet, with my phone pressed on my ear "Sorry love, I'm here now!" Leo mumbled. I could tell he already knew what I was about to ask "Tell me you don't know what I'm about to ask you? When did you do all of that without my knowledge?" I asked and I heard him chuckle "Tesoro, What are you talking about?" "Don't do that Leo, when did you register me on a baking show without letting me know? I got the call yesterday and your name was mentioned so don't lie to me about it," I mumbled and that was when he chuckled loudly "A few days back! I heard of it from a business partner of mine and well I had to fix in one of the most pastry chefs I've ever seen!" My face turned crimson shade as Leo mumbled making me bite down on my lip "I got their message after the call and it doesn't look like an ordinary competition Leo, how did you manage to get me a slot in it? It looks like a show high-e
[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...
