[Matilda]

My heart hammered against my ribs as I weaved through the crowd, my eyes scanning every face, every corner. My hands trembled as I wiped my wet palms on my jeans. I had already reported to security, but I couldn’t stay put.

"Oh God, where are my kids?"

Tears burned down my cheeks, my breathing uneven as I searched from one aisle to the other, panic clawing at my chest. Maybe I should go back to the security post. Maybe someone had found them and was bringing them there

I groaned and turned to walk back when my entire body suddenly froze.

"Mummy!" My eyes widened.

Austin!

I spun so fast that my vision blurred, and then I saw them, my babies. Standing there, safe and sound.

Before my brain could process anything else, I was already running. My knees struck the ground as I yanked them into my arms, hugging them so tightly that it hurt.

"What did I say about you two running off?" My voice shook, with frustration and relief. "You can't do that to mummy, you can't!"

    [Kaden]"What the fuck is the problem?" Mason asked me for the umpteenth time since we left the mall. My jaw clenched tightly as I stared out the window.What was I supposed to tell them? And why the fuck am I even angry? I saw Tilda with kids, and she not only has a partner but also twin boys! It really shouldn't matter, it fucking shouldn't, but it did, and that pissed me off even more.What gives her the right to be happy? That fucking gold digger is married to that dude and has kids! I wanted to see her break apart! I fucking wanted to see her suffer for the stunt she pulled years ago! But what now? She had what my wife and I couldn't.Are they married? I don't recall checking the dudes' marital status, but of course they should, they have kids, so they probably should!! "Kaden!" Mason tapped me from the back, drawing my attention back to him."Did something happen? Are you okay? You went after the kids and came back looking like you wanted to murder someone,""I'm okay!" I growl

    [Kaden]"Ka...," She made to speak, but I swallowed her words, my hand tightening on her neck as I sucked on her lips—she whimpered, parting her lips for meA guttural growl tore from my throat as I plunged my tongue deeper into hers, claiming every inch. My fingers found the edge of her towel as I pulled it off her allowing it to fall silently at her feetMy hand moved over her tits, grabbing and fondling it hard.'It's not as firm as the one I touched six years ago,' my stupid mind chimed in, making me squeeze harder on my wife's boobs, eliciting a whimper from her.Yes, Tilda fucking disgusts me, which is why I have never fucked her when I am sober, but why does every part of her body seem to be imprinted on my head- why do I have to remember how firm her boobs were when touching my wife's own?She is a whore, a gold digger, a fucking whore who opens up her legs to anyone"Oh!" Cherry whimpered hard, pulling me out of my thoughts. She held my chest and slowly pushed me back, her ch

    [Kaden] My heart clenched so tightly that I felt it would shatter as I walked down the stairs to the kitchen. "Are you done?" I asked one of the maids in the kitchen and she nodded, holding up a tray "Let me have it!" I stretched out my hand and took the breakfast from her as I made my way upstairs. I took a slow deep breath and pushed open the door to our room, my gaze drawn to Cherry's sleeping form! I walked over to the bed, dropped the tray by the side, and plopped down beside her. Leaning close, I placed a soft kiss on her forehead. She whimpered softly, her eyes slowly opening. She blinked twice, moving her hand over to her eyes and wiping off her sleepy eyes. "Good Morning!" I said softly as she bit down on her lower lip. "I brought you breakfast!" She ignored me and tried to get up, only to wince in pain. "Fuck!" She cursed under her breath, slowly pushing herself off the bed My hand curled into fists as I watched her standing up The duvet slipped off her, reveal

    [Matilda]"Julia why would you scare me like that!" I mumbled as I closed the gap and tightened my grip on Julia's waistI've been trying to reach her since yesterday when we got back from the mall and it's almost twenty-four hours and she only decided to pick and rush down to my house this night"I'm so sorry baby, it won't happen again, I got caught up with work and it was just too much, we had this project at hand and we needed to submit it tonight, so we all had to pull an all-nighter, I just got off work this evening!" Julia pouted her lips and gave me that face that I couldn't stay mad at."I was worried, I thought something happened!" We walked over to the sitting room, plopping down on the couch."Nothing happened, I'm here now, I'm taking the day off, so I will be spending the night!""You better do!" I whined"Are the twins asleep?""Yes," I nodded, my hand smoothing my dark long hair as I gazed at Julia, pressing my lips into a thin line."Did something happen?" Julia asked

    [Matilda]"So you two are not going to say bye to mummy?" I pouted my lips as my babies ran into Leo's arms without even looking at me.Leo promised to take them for a drive and believe me when I say Aiden and Austin are obsessed with going for a drive especially when it has to do with Leo's sports cars "But mummy, why aren't you coming with us?" Austin asked as she shifted from Leo's arms, staring back at me."Exactly, why are you not coming with us?" Leo asked, and I rolled my eyes at him."Mummy, are you going to the Mall?" Austin asked, and I shook my head."Mummy is going out with Aunty Julia,""Oh, okay, mummy. I thought you were going to the Mall to pick up everything we left the other day and ran away, because I didn't pick my toys,"My eyes widened as those words left Austin's mouth."Ran away?" Leo asked. "What is he talking about?""It's nothing, don't mind Austin, you know he talks a lot!" I shook my head, staring at Austin, but who was I kidding? Knowing Austin, he would

    [Matilda]"Who in the world do we have here?" Cherry smiled as she snatched her phone from my grasp. My jaw tightened, my eyes sweeping all over her body. It's been six years, but she looked even younger"You can stop gawking sweetheart, I already know I'm beautiful!" There was mockery in Cherry's voice pulling me out of my thoughts.I drew a deep breath, my eyes shifting away from her as I tried to move past her, only to have her block my view, her eyes scanning me from head to toe"And where do you think you're going?" She snapped, blocking me. I honestly didn't have time for this. I could still feel the hatred I harbored for this thing over the years, but I wasn't ready to cause a scene.I looked at Julia as she made to speak, but I raised my hand and told her to let me handle it.I turned back to Cherry. "Could you please move out of the way?" I asked politely, hoping that she would be civil enough to do what I said, but I guess I was wrong.She laughed sarcastically, wiggling he

    [Kaden] My eyes lifted from my laptop as I noticed my home office door open with a loud thud. My jaw clenched. Cherry stood in the doorway, her gaze locked on mine. She has refused to talk to me since the last time, and the more I tried to apologize, the more she distanced herself. So I just let her be "Hey!" I mumbled, watching as she stalked towards me and plopped on the seat opposite mine. "Are you okay?" I asked. She rolled her eyes as if she had not just come in here uninvited. She pulled out her phone and dropped it on my desk, making my brow crease as I stared at the shattered screen. "How can I be okay when that miserable thing decided to deliberately bump into me just to break my phone? Does she know how much this phone costs?" Cherry snapped, making my brows crease even more. What is she talking about? "What happened?" I asked with a low voice. "I ran into your miserable, gold-digging ex-wife, and she did this. Showed up in my face after six years just to un

    [Kaden] "What the fuck was my business?" I asked myself this question for the umpteenth time since I left the restaurant heading to my office He's not their father, okay. So? 'Why don't you mind your fucking business?' My inner mind chimed in, making me growl. I pushed the thought aside heading straight to my office. I swerved my steering as I came to a stop in the lot of my office. Turning off the engine, I stepped out and made my way in. Giving a firm nod to some of my employees as I walked toward the elevator car leading directly to my suite I walked out of the elevator car, my gaze shifting to Vince my PA, as he walked towards me. "Good day, Sir." "Let's talk later!" I dismissed him and he nodded as I walked down the hallway to my suite. I knew Mason was already inside! My two best friends were more like brothers, and there was almost nothing they didn't know about me. Pushing open the double doors to my suite, I walked straight towards my desk when I spotted

    [Kaden]"What exactly is going on here?" I snapped, my brow creasing together as I watched the dude take a step back from my wifeCherry opened her mouth to speak but quickly shut it back. I was about to say another word when she quickly beat me to it"Baby, hi...I...you said you're supposed to be in court, I...,""I asked you a question and don't make me repeat myself. What exactly is going on here?" I snapped and she bit down on her lip, taking a step toward me"Baby, meet...meet my cousin's brother, Liam," Cherry said making my brow crease even more"Liam, my husband, you...the one I was just telling you about,""Cousin brother?" I gritted out watching as Cherry took a step back, her lips pressed into a thin line"I'm Liam, your wife's cousin. It's nice to meet you, I've heard so much about you," My eyes shifted from the dude's face to his hand. I blew out a breath and turned back to my wife"What cousin of yours do I not know about?"

    [Kaden]The second that gavel slammed down, my jaw clenched so tight it hurt. My eyes darted to the damn judge watching as he rose to his feet and the next second he was making his way out"What the fuck does this old man think he's doing?" My eyes shifted to Tilda and she was already on her feet as they all made their way toward the exitWhat the hell does he need my kids in court for?I blew out a deep breath as Richard walked back to where I was seatedI think I know exactly what to do."Sir, are you...,"I didn't wait for Richard to finish his statement. I rose to my feet and headed for the exitJust why the hell would he postpone the damn thing. Shouldn't he have given me what was expected of him? Full damn custody of my kidsMy heart clenched and for some reason, I felt like relieving this anger before it exploded but just before I could take another step ahead, my legs came to an instant halt as I watched Tilda right in the hallway with her phone pressed firmly against her ear

    [Matilda]"Objection overruled. Counsel, you may proceed," the judge said clearly. I lifted my head, locking eyes with Richard, who wore that damn smirk on his face. The tears betrayed me, spilling freely no matter how hard I tried to fight them."Miss Matilda, your ex-husband visited a few days ago and met you in an intimate position with your lover? Then I would have no option but to ask this question—what exactly have these children been exposed to? They're minors. This kind of environment—well, I don't think it’s suitable..."I couldn’t take it anymore "That’s a damn lie," I snapped, my eyes burning red. "And throwing accusations with no proof? That’s not only wrong, it’s unprofessional. Leo is my friend. That’s it. Nothing inappropriate ever happened," I said, choking on my tears.This wasn’t the time to cry. Not for that bastard. Not for someone so vile he’d twist everything just to hurt me. Why the hell would he make all this up?"But is it true or not?" Richard pushed, voice

    [Matilda]"Thank you." I had said those words so many times to Sage since we stepped out of the courtroom. But I couldn’t stop myself. I didn’t know how else to show him my gratitude. He’d somehow managed to flip the script and push things slightly in our favor—giving us a breath of air on a battlefield that had nearly suffocated me.Still, I knew better than to think Kaden was done. His lawyer had made it clear, they were still pushing forward. That statement alone had my stomach in knots. Whatever they were planning, it wasn’t going to be light.“We have to head in. The court will be resuming soon,” Sage said, voice cold, not sparing another glance in our direction as he turned and walked awayJulia arrived just minutes before, standing next to me with her arms folded tightly under her chest.“Why’s he acting so cold?” Julia scoffed loudlyI turned to her, my brow knitting together, clearly telling her to shut up. “You don’t expect him to be all smiley, do you?

    [Kaden]My jaw clenched hard as I watched Matilda walk right out of the courtroom, with that bastard right beside her, fucking holding her handsMy eyes snapped towards her lawyer. Did I underestimate what he was capable of doing?I almost laughed my ass out when he started questioning the witness not until he flipped every dam thing. The fucking whispers behind me, I heard them loud and clear — people calling the witness a liar and how she was trying to frame Matilda upMy eyes shifted to Richard as he made his way back to where we were seated and without sparing him a glance, I stood up and made my way outI tucked my hand into my pocket, walking right to the lot where my car was parked with Richard following behind meI took a deep breath and leaned against my car turning to face him"I hope you have a way to fix this," I drew in a deep breath, my hand curling right into my pocket. "Because you know that losing is not an option. And like I said if you don't pull through consider yo

    [Matilda] I couldn't help the tears that rolled down my eyes as I watched Clara on the witness box spilling things that she knew to herself were all lies Have I ever dropped my kids at Clara's house? Of course. But that were a few times when my kids would ask to go over to play with her daughter This woman who was right at the witness box was the only true friend I had in Miami. I wouldn't say we were so close but we were more than just an acquaintance. She was there for me a whole lot of times because Miami was a new city to me when I relocated. and I was new to so many things. I wouldn't deny that she was a very great help to me But what I didn't expect was for her to stand right there and spill out lies about me I wasn't surprised that Kaden would do this kind of thing. This is a man who would go to any length to see me suffer. To see that I shed tears "Counsel for the respondent would you like to cross-examine the witness?" The judge's voice pulled me back to the moment "Yes

    [Kaden] "I would love to call forth our first witness. Mrs Clara Williams," Richard called out and I couldn't help how my lips curled into a big smileMy eyes shifted to Tilda and my lips widened even more as I watched the shock on her faceShe's fucking too little to think she can stand against me. I know she would never in her lifetime be expecting her friend from Miami to be here today as a witnessShe was her very good friend from when she arrived in Miami and was almost the only close friend she had over thereWell I could go any length when I want something and she's fucking too small to think she could win against meMy heart clenched as the image of that bastard hugging her a few days ago in her room made its way to my head again. The fucking statement that left her mouth that day.I tilted my neck, shifting my gaze away from her to the main entrance where the red-headed lady was walking in majesticallyI blew out a deep breath, turning my eyes right back at Tilda, and damn t

    [Matilda]"Counsel for the respondent, please step forward," the judge called out and my heart pounded loud in my chestThis is truly happeningI held my breath as Sage rose from his seat, his movement smooth and calculated. I blew out a breath, my hand curling tighter, finger digging into my palmThe air was thick with tension as if the courtroom was closing in on me. I was acutely aware of every second. The tap of Sage's polished shoes against the marble floor as he made his way to the front row of the courtroom, standing tall and composedI took a deep breath, watching as he introduced himself, his calm demeanor making me feel a sense of calm for a split secondThe judge nodded as he was done introducing himself, signaling him to proceed"Your Honor," Sage continued.

    [Matilda]The soft hum of the car's engine barely registered in my mind as I took a slow deep breath. My heart was trembling and despite my best efforts to stay calm, it still felt like my chest was tightening with every passing second. It was finally the day that had given me a sleepless night for a while now. The day I would be facing Kaden in courtMy jaw clenched as I tried to calm my racing heart. My kids haven't stopped asking about him since the day he left a few days back. He had once called to talk to them but I denied him access, telling him that the kids were asleepI blew out a breath, my eyes shifting to the driver's seat, where Leo was seated with ease, his hand firm on the steering wheel, the other hand gripping the gear tightlyMy hand curled around the hem of my fitted black knee length gown"We're almost there," Leo's voice pulled me out of my daze. I turned my attention to him, watching as his eyes locked into mine before he turned his attention back to the roadI
