Annabel's POV.

I made my way down the hospital corridor, nodding absently at a nurse as I passed. I stepped outside into the cool October air, the breeze lifting the edges of my hair. The day had that crisp, fresh feeling to it—like the world was holding its breath, waiting for what would happen next.

I allowed myself a moment to stand there, to bask in the knowledge of what was about to unfold. Annabel thought she had the upper hand. She thought she could push me into a corner. But I had been prepared from the start, waiting patiently for the moment to strike back.

I pulled my phone out again, scrolling through the messages until I found the one I’d been expecting after that call earlier. I stared at it for a few seconds, a wicked smile tugging at the corners of my lips as I read the words.

Everything’s ready for tonight.

Perfect.

Tonight would be Halloween for Tristan. But for Annabel, it would be the night she regretted ever crossing me.

Taking one last deep breath, I slipped the

    Annabel's POVThe streets were alive with children rushing from door to door, their laughter and excited shrieks filling the crisp Halloween night. The soft glow of porch lights and the flicker of jack-o'-lanterns cast warm shadows over the sidewalks, but I was focused on one family in particular. From a distance, I watched Ava and Tristan as they moved along, hand in hand, pausing to collect candy from every door. Jayson stood beside me, his little pumpkin bucket nearly overflowing, but he wasn’t done yet.“Mommy, can we go over there?” he asked, his gaze fixed on a house with a skeleton propped up by the front door, waving a plastic bone in the air.“Just a little longer, Jayson,” I murmured, absently patting his shoulder. My eyes never left Ava and Tristan. Tonight wasn’t about trick-or-treating, not really. Tonight was about sending a message, about showing Ava that she couldn’t brush me aside, that she couldn’t pretend I wasn’t a part of her world or try to ruin mine further with

    Ava's POV. Halloween night had left an impression I couldn’t shake. Standing face-to-face with Annabel, watching her world crumble as I whispered the truth about Jayson—it was like I’d taken back a piece of control, one that I hadn’t realized she’d stolen from me. But that encounter felt like just the beginning. I knew Annabel wouldn’t give up easily, and neither would I.The day after Halloween, I was back to routine, trying to move past the unease of last night when my phone buzzed unexpectedly. Glancing at the screen, I saw the hospital’s number. My heart leaped as I quickly picked up.“ Mrs. Ava,” the coordinator’s voice came through, calm and professional. “I’m calling to inform you that the machine for Tristan’s bone marrow transplant is ready. We’re scheduled to perform the surgery the day after tomorrow. We’ll need you both in early to prepare.”A mix of relief and anticipation filled me. Finally, The waiting was over, and Tristan would have his chance. It felt like everythin

  • Revenge Of The Trillionaire Heiress    How is He?

    Ava's POV The day of Tristan’s surgery arrived faster than I’d prepared for. The sky outside was barely beginning to lighten as I stood in the doorway of Tristan’s room, watching his peaceful expression as he slept. His soft breaths were steady and calm, and for a moment, I felt a pang of guilt. Today would be difficult, and even though I knew it was necessary, the thought of him going through something so serious weighed heavily on me.Andrew was already up, quietly moving around the house and gathering everything we’d need for the day. I could hear him in the kitchen, making coffee and filling a thermos, probably packing snacks even though neither of us had much of an appetite. I took a deep breath, summoning the strength I’d need for Tristan and myself. When I walked in to wake him, I wanted him to see a smile, not the anxiety that had been building up inside me.Slowly, I walked over to his bed and knelt beside him, gently brushing his hair off his forehead. His eyes fluttered op

    Ava’s POVA week had passed since Tristan’s surgery, and though his recovery was steady, each day brought a different layer of relief and exhaustion. I found myself constantly watching over him, feeling a deep sense of gratitude whenever he laughed or managed a full smile, though they were still rare. Today, the doctors had given the green light for a short stroll outside the hospital, just enough to help Tristan regain his strength.Tristan was still fragile, but every small milestone—his first steps down the hallway, his tiny voice asking for his favorite snack—felt like a victory. He sat beside me now, wrapped in his blanket, his stuffed dinosaur nestled under his arm, watching the other child playing in the hospital courtyard. The sun was gentle, warming his cheeks as he leaned his head on my shoulder.“Mommy, when we go home, can we make pancakes?” he asked softly, looking up at me with his big, hopeful eyes.I smiled, brushing a strand of hair from his forehead. “Of course, love

    Ava's POV. Twenty minutes later, we left the hospital without Derick knowing. Tristen fell asleep as soon as the car started moving, and neither Andrew nor I hadn't said a word. I sat in the back seat, Tristen on my lap, as I stroked his hair softly, not wanting to wake him up or anything.Andrew kept looking at me through the rearview mirror and trying to start up a conversation, but I either cut him off or did not respond. “Ava, I'm sorry I lost control of my emotions. I shouldn't have said or done anything." He said, his voice apologetic. I sighed, raising my head and leaning my head backward. " It's not your fault, Andrew; you had every right to act and say the way you did. It's me who should be sorry for letting it get his far out of hand. “Andrew, it wasn’t just you. I… I shouldn’t have let things get that far. But Derick…” I trailed off, the conflict of emotions tightening in my chest. “He knows exactly how to press buttons, and I can’t deal with that right now. Not when I’m

    Derick's POVFive hours earlier. I felt my blood boil after leaving Ava and Andrew’s side. Just because he had been with Ava for five years and taking care of Tristen since he was born doesn't mean he has to take care of him now since I'm around; I mean, just who does he think he is to say such things to me? I didn't know Ava was pregnant five years ago; if I did, I would not have divorced her, I would have chased after her.I scratched the back of my head in frustration. Just because I keep reminiscing on the past doesn't mean it would change the present or the future. I need to look for a way to make her mine again or at least get Tristen.I stood up from the bench and started walking towards Tristan’s room. Upon getting there, Tristen, Ava, and Andrew were no longer there,e and Tristan’s room was being cleared out. “What in the," I said, my voice barely a whisper. Before walking towards a nurse. “Excuse me, the little boy that was here with his parents thirty minutes ago, where did t

    Andrew's POVThe moment I saw Derick storm into the restaurant, I knew it wasn’t going to end well. Ava hadn’t noticed him yet, too busy helping Tristan decide between spaghetti and chicken tenders, but I could feel his eyes on her. And that familiar surge of protectiveness flared up in me, the same one that had been on edge ever since he started showing up and disrupting everything.Without thinking, I stood up and intercepted him before he could reach the table. The last thing I wanted was for Tristan to witness whatever scene Derick was about to make.“Derick,” I kept my voice low, leaning in so only he could hear, “this isn’t the time or place for this.”He ignored me, craning his neck to get a glimpse of Ava. I stepped in his line of sight, refusing to let him bulldoze his way into a peaceful moment we were trying to have as a family.“If you’re here to make a scene, I’m telling you now—don’t,” I warned, my patience wearing thin.He smirked, his eyes sharp with anger. “I’m here t

    Ava's POV.It's been a week since what happened at the restaurant with Andrew and Derick. It popped up on the news and made headlines for six days. This is the third day. I dropped my phone down and fell back on the chair, a sigh escaped my lips. I informed someone to delete the post before it gets even crazier.The funny part is the paparazzi didn't know Derick nor Andrew’s name; they dragged mine, saying I had a child for Derick, and then went off to get engaged with Andrew. Some called me a gold digger, some a whore, some a two-faced conniving bitch. The insults just kept getting worse and worse.Derick had dropped a hundred messages. The first half was apologizing, the middle was blaming Andrew, and the last part was him demanding to see Tristen and be in his life.Andrew, on the other hand, kept apologizing whenever he got the chance to buy. I always kept quiet and did other things. The paparazzi kept following me, Derick, and Andrew and showed up at Triaten's school a few times.

    Ava's POV.Mrs. Pierce smiled through her tears, her gaze fixed on Tristan with a tenderness that tugged at something deep inside me.As the evening wore on, we sat around the dining table, the air still heavy with unspoken emotions. After dinner, Mrs. Pierce folded her hands on the table, her expression serious.“There’s something else I need to tell you, Ava,” she began, her voice calm but resolute.I raised an eyebrow, bracing myself for yet another revelation. “What is it now?”She glanced at Andrew and Tristan, then back at me. “I’ve kept my distance for years because I didn’t think I had the right to disrupt your life. But I’ve been following your journey, and I’ve wanted to come back sooner than this.”“Following my journey?” I repeated, narrowing my eyes.“Yes,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “Ava, I wasn’t just trying to rebuild my life after I left you. I…well, I married someone. A man who believed in me and my dreams. Together, we built a life—a very successful one.”I fr

    Ava’s POVThe weeks that followed Annabel's arrest were a whirlwind of emotions—relief, anger, and a lingering sense of unease. I couldn’t shake the feeling that she wasn’t entirely gone from our lives, even as the police assured me she would be locked away for a long time.But life had a way of throwing curveballs.One morning, as I sat by the window sipping tea, the nausea that had plagued me for days returned with a vengeance. I barely made it to the bathroom in time. Tristan, ever the observant little boy, knocked on the door.“Mommy, are you okay?” he asked, his voice tinged with worry.“I’m fine, sweetheart,” I replied, forcing a smile when I emerged. “Just a little stomach bug.”But it wasn’t a bug. Deep down, I knew. The signs were unmistakable, and a test later that evening confirmed it.I was pregnant.I stared at the test in my trembling hand, the reality sinking in. Another child. A sibling for Tristan. A symbol of everything I’d fought so hard to protect.As the news settled in,

    Annabel’s POVThey all thought they’d won. Ava, Derick, even Andrew—they all got to walk away happy. But what about me? Where was my happy ending? Where was the life I’d envisioned? Derick wasn’t supposed to go back to Ava. He wasn’t supposed to turn his attention to some child. Tristan. That boy had ruined everything.I stared at the grainy photo I’d taken of Tristan at the park last week. His laugh still echoed in my mind, grating against my nerves. Derick doted on him, Ava clung to him, and even Andrew looked at him like he was some precious treasure.It wasn’t fair.If Tristan were gone, maybe things could go back to the way they were supposed to be. Derick would grieve, of course, but I could help him heal. I’d be the one he turned to. The one he leaned on.The plan had been forming in my mind for weeks. It wasn’t impulsive—I wasn’t stupid. I’d spent hours studying their routines, noting every detail. Ava’s work schedule, Derick’s visitation days, and Tristan’s after-school activ

    Ava’s POVThe judge’s voice echoed through the courtroom, cutting through the tense silence like a blade.“In the best interest of the child, the court has decided on joint custody. Both parents will share equal responsibility in raising Tristan.”I sat motionless, my fingers gripping the edge of the table. I had prepared myself for this outcome, but hearing the words spoken aloud still sent a chill down my spine. Sharing Tristan with Derick wasn’t what I wanted—but the court had decided, and I had no choice but to accept it.Tristan was my whole world. The idea of someone else, even his biological father, having a say in his life felt like an intrusion. But the judge was right. Tristan deserved both parents in his life. No matter how much I resented the situation, I had to focus on what was best for my son.As the courtroom emptied, Derick approached me. He walked hesitantly, as if unsure of how close he should get. I glanced at Diane, who nodded and took Tristan by the hand, guiding

    Derick’s POVThe small park bench felt impossibly narrow as I sat there, nervously gripping the edge. Tristan was perched beside me, his little legs swinging back and forth, not quite reaching the ground. His curious gaze was fixed on me, a mix of innocence and wisdom far beyond his five years.I took a deep breath, unsure how to begin. The truth was, I had no idea how to talk to a child—especially one who looked so much like me, yet felt like a stranger.“Do you like the swings?” I asked, trying to break the ice.He shrugged, clutching the juice box I’d handed him earlier. “They’re okay.”Silence fell between us again, heavy and awkward. Finally, Tristan spoke, his voice quiet but firm. “Why weren’t you there when I was born?”The question hit me like a punch to the gut. I looked at him, my throat tightening. How could I explain something I didn’t even fully understand myself?“I didn’t know about you,” I admitted. “Your mom didn’t tell me until…until she needed help.”His small brow

    Annabel's POVThe glow of the city lights spilled through the floor-to-ceiling windows of my apartment, casting shadows across the sleek marble floor. I sank into the plush sofa, glass of wine in hand, as my phone buzzed with yet another update.Tristan seemed fine today. No incidents.Ava’s watcher confronted someone near the school, but they got away.Andrew stopped by Diane’s office this afternoon. He’s definitely keeping her in the loop.I smirked, setting the wine down and scrolling through the messages. It was almost laughable how predictable they all were—Ava, so desperate to appear the perfect mother; Andrew, playing knight in shining armor. And Derick, as always, trying to manage things while keeping me in the dark.Poor, naive Derick. Did he really think I didn’t know everything already? The updates he shared during our hushed conversations were a watered-down version of the truth—carefully curated to make him look like the doting father fighting for his son. But I had my ow

I want to know if you see him again.”After hanging up, I texted Diane, filling her in on the new development.We need to discuss this tomorrow. I’m doubling Tristan’s security and contacting the school.Her reply came almost immediately. Agreed. This will only work in our favor if we act quickly.I stared at the phone for a moment, my chest tightening with frustration. Diane was right—this could show the court how vigilant I was and how far I’d go to protect Tristan. But deep down, I hated that I even had to do this. I hated that someone was using my son as a pawn.I called the number again my hand clenching the phone tighter. “Did you get anything? A description? A photo?”The watcher hesitated. “Not really. He wore a baseball cap, pulled low, and kept his head down. It was deliberate—li

    Ava's POV.The courtroom loomed over me as I stepped out of the car with Diane at my side. Her calm demeanor was reassuring, but my nerves refused to settle. Tristan’s laughter echoed in my mind, a reminder of why I was doing this.“Ready?” Diane asked, her sharp eyes scanning my face.I nodded, clutching the folder of evidence she’d helped me prepare. “As ready as I’ll ever be.”The court had given us a month to prepare for this, and every single day had been a battle. Between balancing Tristan’s needs, meetings with Diane, and keeping myself together, I felt stretched thin. Andrew and Kim had been my rocks during this time. Andrew’s unwavering support and Kim’s relentless encouragement kept me going when I wanted to break.“You’re a good mother, Ava,” Andrew had said the night before, his voice steady. “The court will see that. No one could love Tristan the way you do.”Kim had chimed in during one of our late-night calls, her voice fierce. “You’ve got this. You’re smart, you’re str
