OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW CHAPTER 49 – OSCAR BELONGS TO ME
ALICIAThe moment I stepped into Monsieur King’s estate, I knew something was off.I had envisioned a warm reception—maybe not overly affectionate, but at least cordial. Yet, the chilling air inside wasn’t just from the temperature. It was from the man seated before me, his gaze indifferent, his posture unreadable.I swallowed, but my smile didn’t waver.With a practiced elegance, I stepped forward and presented the gifts I had carefully selected.“Grandpa, I brought you some things I know you’ll love—rare teas, excellent for the bones, exotic fruits that are hard to come by, and this ointment for muscle relief.”He didn’t move. Didn’t even spare the items a glance.Instead, his fingers tapped against the armrest of his chair, slow and deliberate.The silence pressed against me, but I refused to let it crush my resolve.Still smiling, I turned to the servants, handing the items to them instead. “Take these to the kitchen and make sure Monsieur gets his tea properly brewed. The ointmen

ALICIA’S POVI froze. She was naked, her fingers grazing the delicate lace of my lingerie. “Kristie,” I called, consumed in rage.She startled, her grip on the fabric tightening as she spun around. For a brief second, I saw it—fear. But it vanished the moment she recognized me. In its place was utter disdain.“You,” she spat, her lip curling in contempt.I took a step forward, arms crossed over my chest. “What are you doing with my underwear?” I gnashed my teeth. “How did you get in here?”Kristie didn’t move. The tension crackled between us like an exposed wire, dangerous and unpredictable.Then she let out a slow, mocking laugh. “I don’t need permission to be here.”I scoffed. “You certainly do.”Her smile widened, barely reaching her eyes. “Oh, Alicia, don’t act so high and mighty. You’re not the queen of this house, no matter how desperately you pretend to be.”A bitter laugh escaped my lips. “And you are?” I took a deliberate step closer. “Breaking into a man’s house to flaunt y

OSCAR GRAYI didn’t know how fast I was breathing until I was in the car, slumped against the seat, the headache dulling but still there—lingering like a storm that refused to pass.“Drive,” I muttered to the driver.“To where, sir?”I didn’t hesitate. “Grandpa’s estate.”He nodded and pulled away from the apartment. I leaned back, shutting my eyes. The tension in my body didn’t ease until we passed through the grand iron gates of King Estate.Here, surrounded by towering trees and the familiar stone pathways, I could finally breathe. This place—this home—was where I had spent my childhood, the only place I had ever felt truly safe.Losing my parents in that damned sea wreck had left me with nothing. Nothing but him.Grandpa. The man who had raised me, guided me, shaped me. And now… the man I saw sitting in a wheelchair. I stopped dead in my tracks, my pulse quickening.“What happened?” I demanded, striding toward him. “Why are you in a wheelchair?”He barely looked up from the book i

TILDAThe night air was thick with the scent of whiskey, sweat, and regret.I didn’t remember how I got here—the bar, the half-empty glass in my hand, the burn of alcohol trailing down my throat—but it didn’t matter.Tonight, I wasn’t Tilda the responsible mother. Not Tilda the hardworking employee. Not Tilda the fool who was tricked into a lie.I was just Tilda—the woman drowning in betrayal.The music pounded in my ears, a steady, dizzying pulse that matched the blur in my head. I leaned against the bar, swirling what was left of my drink, the ice clinking lazily. Everything around me spun just a little too fast, like my thoughts—fragmented, uncertain, loud.That’s when he appeared.Tall. Striking. The kind of man who knew he looked good and made sure the room knew it too. His shirt clung just right, his hair slicked back with precision. His smile was smooth, his voice like velvet weaving through the chaos.“You look like you could use some company,” he said, eyes scanning me with a

TILDA“Not possible?” Miranda’s brows drew together. “Why?”I paused. For weeks, I’d buried the truth. Locked it away. Pretended it never happened. But I was exhausted from carrying the weight alone.So I told her—about the night I was robbed. The moment everything vanished. My savings. My future. Diamond’s future. Gone in a blink.The ring... unrecoverable.Miranda’s face went pale. “Tilda…” she breathed.“I didn’t even tell the police,” I admitted. “I was scared. And ashamed. That money was everything.”She reached for my hand. Her grip was steady, grounding. “You haven’t failed,” she said. “You still have your job. Your kids. And me.”Tears pricked at the back of my eyes. I blinked rapidly, but they came anyway.“You’ll work hard,” she continued. “You’ll rebuild. You’ll secure a better future for your children. And you will rise again.”I exhaled, shaky but real. For the first time since last night, a flicker of hope sparked in my chest.I nodded slowly, wiping my eyes with the bac

KRISTIEA mistake?Tense, I drew in a deep breath, heat blooming beneath my skin.Lady Sheila was my last hope, she was the only one that could get Monsieur King to drop his resentment against my family. Monsieur King would never ignore her.“Yes Kristie. Your marriage,” Sheila continued. “You marriage to James might be a sham, but it will stand on your way of getting Oscar. Such an arrangement doesn’t speak well of you.”I swallowed hard. Sheila doesn’t know the whole truth. I and my mother appeared like the victims to her. She mustn’t know that we’ve orchestrated this from the start and James was the pawn all along..“I had to do it, aunt. Our family was going to lose everything to James and that was the least I could do.”“I understand dear,” Sheila patted me.“The court case,” I admitted. “James couldn’t afford a competent lawyer. We could lose everything.”Sheila’s gaze turned calculating.“Leave that to me,” she said coolly. “Right now, we need to focus on Oscar. If Alicia stays

OSCAR GRAY“What do they want here,” I whispered to grandpa. “You should have informed me of their visit.”“Ah, Lady Sheila,” Grandpa said, his tone polite but distant. He pulled me closer. “I am just as surprised, boy.”Grandpa’s pleasant mood vanished instantly. It was all due to Kristie’s presence. As for Sheila, she was always welcomed to the house.Lady Sheila smiled gracefully. “Monsieur King, it’s been too long.”She cast a brief glance at Kristie, who stepped forward, clearly eager to make an impression. However, before she could speak, the kids burst back into the room, freshly cleaned and full of energy.The shift in atmosphere was immediate. Lady Sheila’s expression faltered. Kristie’s eyes widened in shock. They had not expected to see the quadruplets here.A brief silence fell over the room.Denzel was the first to break it, tilting his head curiously at the two women. “Who... why are they, Mr. Gray?”He shot a glance at me.

OSCAR GRAYLady Sheila’s eyes flicked between Grandfather and me, her smile poised, practiced. I could already predict the words forming on her lips. She had come with Kristie—no further proof was needed.Confidently, she settled into her seat, her voice as smooth as ever. “Monsieur King, wouldn’t it be wonderful to have Kristie as part of the family?”She glanced toward him, gauging his reaction and when there was none, she went on. “She’s always been devoted to Oscar, and I believe she—”“No,” Grandfather cut in, his voice even but firm.Lady Sheila’s expression barely faltered, but I caught the flicker of irritation in her eyes.“Now, now,” she chuckled lightly, waving a delicate hand. “There’s no need to be so dismissive, dear. Surely, you can acknowledge that Kristie has more potential of being loyal.”“She’s been persistent,” I corrected, my voice devoid of warmth.Grandfather folded his arms, his gaze steady. “Sheila, we appreciate your years of dedication to the family.

JAMESThe same old Miranda—always looking so youthful and happy. Seeing her standing before me brought back a flood of memories. It felt as if it was only yesterday that she was sitting with Tilda in our house, chatting about everything and nothing.“I bet. And what about Tilda? Have you heard from her?” I asked, keeping my tone casual, though my heart pounded with anticipation.“No, not really. She’s been... out of touch,” she replied, her voice even, but I wasn’t convinced. Miranda had never been good at lying. There was hesitation in her eyes, a slight flicker of something unsaid.I studied her closely, searching for any crack in her façade. But Miranda simply smiled, keeping up the polite act. Perhaps she truly didn’t know where Tilda was, or perhaps she was protecting her. Either way, I wasn’t going to push. Not yet.I nodded, acting as if I accepted her response. “I see. Well, if you do hear from her, tell her I’d love to catch up.”Miranda hesitated for only a fraction of a sec
OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW CHAPTER 58 - THE ONE TIME KISS
TILDABy the time we arrived at the restaurant later that evening, the tension that had settled between us during the day had softened into something warm, something comfortable. The ambiance was inviting—dim lighting, a soft hum of conversation, and a live band playing slow jazz.As we sat across from each other in a quiet corner, I found myself smiling more than I should. He had this way of pulling me into his world, making everything else fade away.He told me a story from his childhood, about how he got lost at a festival and spent the evening with a kind old couple who mistook him for their grandson.“I didn’t even realize I was missing until my grandfather found me,” he admitted with a chuckle. “I was too busy enjoying their stories and the candied apples they kept feeding me.”I laughed softly, resting my chin on my hand. “You must have been adorable as a child.”He smirked, tilting his head. “I still am.”I rolled my eyes, but my heart did something strange—something warm and

KRISTIEDylan looked up. “Mr. Gray is here now,” he said to his siblings. “We should go home.”Without a second glance at me, the kids left.I smirked. I wasn’t going to let this moment slip away. I strode forward and caught Oscar’s arm just as he was about to enter the vehicle.“Oscar,” I purred, my voice sweet yet urgent.His eyes darkened as he turned to face me.“I know about the kids now,” I whispered, tightening my grip on his sleeve. “What do you think the world will say when they learn of your secret affair?” I smirked. “You have to give in to me, Oscar.”His jaw clenched, but he said nothing.Instead, he exhaled sharply, his forehead creasing in irritation. Without a word, he stepped into the car, shutting the door in my face.The driver pulled away, leaving me standing alone.The next moment, Lady Sheila stepped out. “We are done here, Kristie,” she called to me.I went over to her. “Lady Sheila, how did it go?”I was enthusiastic as I gripped her wrist anxiously anticipatin
