THE DOCTOR'S BEAUTIFUL WIFE. Chapter 14
**A Life Changing Revelation**The sun filtered through the large windows of the living room as Isabelle sat on the couch, absently running her hand over her stomach. The past few months had been a whirlwind of emotions, secrets, and choices she could barely keep straight. Her affair with Michael was a guilty pleasure that provided fleeting happiness, while her marriage to Andrew was a crumbling foundation she struggled to rebuild.Lately, however, her body felt different—an inexplicable fatigue that wasn’t just from emotional turmoil. She chalked it up to stress, but when the faint nausea started in the mornings, she began to wonder.One morning, Isabelle stood before the bathroom mirror, pale and uneasy. Her heart raced as she thought about the growing signs. The late period she’d ignored, the strange cravings, and now, the unrelenting waves of morning sickness.She reached into the drawer and pulled out the pregnancy test she’d picked up on a whim during her last grocery run. No ha

**Tangled Lies**The tension in Isabelle’s chest didn’t ease as the days wore on. Every step she took felt heavier than the last, each breath suffocating under the weight of her secrets. The pregnancy—once a distant possibility—was now undeniable. The truth she’d kept hidden from Andrew for so long was finally starting to unravel, and Isabelle had no idea how much longer she could hold it together.She sat at the kitchen table, her fingers absently tracing the rim of her coffee cup. It was early, and Andrew was still in bed. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to break—either her marriage or her own resolve. Either way, it was coming.Isabelle’s phone buzzed, breaking her from her thoughts. She glanced at the screen. The message was from Michael.“We need to talk. I’ll be at your place in an hour. It’s urgent.”Her stomach twisted. What could it be? After their last conversation, she’d hoped things could be simple, that Michael would back off, that she could focus

**The Web of Lies Tightens**A Marriage on the EdgeAndrew turned, catching her staring at him. “Is everything alright, Isabelle? You’re acting strange tonight.”Isabelle quickly snapped out of her thoughts, forcing a smile she didn’t feel. “I’m just tired, that’s all.” She walked over to the table, sitting down with a sigh. The lie was easy, but the weight of it felt unbearable.He didn’t seem convinced, but he didn’t press her further. He was too focused on the meal. Isabelle watched as he moved around the kitchen, his movements automatic and precise. She once admired how he could take care of everything, always in control. But now, those same traits felt suffocating. She couldn’t help but wonder how long she had been blind to the man standing before her.Was he the man she had fallen in love with? Or had she been deceived from the very beginning?As if on cue, the doorbell rang. Isabelle’s nerves tensed. Who could it be at this hour?Andrew looked up from the stove, his face crease

** A New Revelation**Isabelle paced the living room, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion and dread. The events of the past few days had left her emotionally drained. Andrew’s cryptic warnings, Jessica’s bombshell revelations, and Michael’s insistence that they leave—it all felt like too much to process. The weight of the secrets she carried was beginning to crush her, and now, with her pregnancy still hidden from everyone, the stakes had never been higher.The sunlight streamed through the curtains, casting long shadows on the walls. Isabelle hadn’t slept all night, her mind replaying every conversation, every glance, every unspoken word. When Andrew finally came downstairs, his expression was unreadable. He didn’t speak to her; he simply grabbed his briefcase and left without a word. The silence between them was deafening.Isabelle’s heart sank. She felt the growing distance between them like a chasm that could never be bridged. But what hurt more was the growing realization that

**Shadows of Betrayal**The atmosphere in Isabelle’s home felt heavier than ever, as though the walls themselves bore witness to the tension simmering beneath the surface. She paced the living room, her mind replaying the events of the last few days. She had agreed to Michael’s plan to leave, but as the hours passed, the doubts grew louder in her head. Could she really abandon everything she’d built, even if it was a façade? Could she truly trust Michael?As she prepared dinner, Isabelle’s phone buzzed. She picked it up, her heart racing when she saw Andrew’s name. He rarely called, especially from work. Hesitantly, she answered.“Isabelle,” Andrew’s voice was calm but carried an edge of urgency, “Jessica called me earlier. She mentioned you’ve been acting... different. Is there something you want to tell me?”Isabelle’s grip on the phone tightened. Jessica had been meddling again, and now Andrew was suspicious. She scrambled for a response. “I’ve just been stressed with everything go

**The Edge of Betrayal**The night was eerily quiet, the silence broken only by the distant hum of the city. Isabelle sat in her room, her thoughts a chaotic tangle. Andrew’s guilt, Michael’s protective instincts, and Vincent’s chilling threats weighed heavily on her. Every breath she took felt like a countdown to the inevitable.Unable to sleep, Isabelle wandered into the kitchen. She needed to think, to plan, but the suffocating tension in the house made it impossible. As she poured herself a glass of water, she heard muffled voices coming from Andrew’s study. Her heart skipped. It was nearly midnight—who could he be talking to?Curiosity won over caution. She crept toward the door, careful to avoid the creaky floorboards. Pressing her ear to the door, she strained to make out the conversation.“I told you I’d get the money,” Andrew was saying, his voice low and desperate. “But dragging Isabelle into this was a mistake. She knows nothing about my dealings.”A cold, familiar voice re

**Betrayal in the Shadows**The morning light filtered through the curtains, illuminating the tension that clung to every corner of the house. Isabelle woke with a start, her heart pounding from another restless night. Her mind replayed Elena’s words over and over. Vincent knew. The thought of him using her unborn child as leverage filled her with dread.Downstairs, the sound of voices pulled her from her thoughts. She descended the staircase cautiously, pausing when she recognized Elena’s cool tone.“This won’t work if you keep second-guessing me,” Elena said.“You’ve given us no reason to trust you,” Michael replied sharply.Isabelle stepped into the room, her eyes narrowing. Andrew stood off to the side, his arms crossed as he watched the exchange. Michael was inches from Elena, his suspicion palpable, but Elena looked unfazed, her composure unshaken.“What’s going on?” Isabelle asked, her voice cutting through the tension.Michael turned to her, his expression softening. “Elena’s

**A Silent Struggle**The house was quieter than usual that morning. Isabelle sat in front of the vanity mirror, her fingers absently brushing through her hair, but her mind was miles away. A dull ache pulsed in her abdomen, making every movement a reminder of how much she had been hiding. Her eyes flickered to the calendar on the wall—a constant reminder of how far she’d come, yet how much more she had left to conceal.Her body had begun to betray her, a constant pain gnawing at her from the inside, the weight of her secrets becoming unbearable. She had tried to ignore it, tried to push through the discomfort, but today it felt different. It felt worse. The thought of telling Michael filled her with dread. How could she explain this to him when everything between them was already so complicated? The affair, the lies, the growing distance between them—it wasn’t just the pregnancy that was tearing her apart. It was everything.“Isabelle?”The sound of Michael’s voice from the hallway p

** Shattered Loyalties**Clara stood in her kitchen, hands trembling as she chopped vegetables for dinner. Her mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions, her stomach twisting with the weight of the secrets she carried. Each time she thought about Michael, about their reckless affair and the unborn child now growing inside her, a pang of guilt stabbed at her heart.Yet, she couldn’t bring herself to regret it entirely. Somewhere deep inside, a part of her had longed for the attention Michael gave her—the stolen moments of passion, the fleeting escape from the shadow of her brother’s overprotectiveness. But now, the consequences of their actions loomed over her like a dark storm cloud.As she turned to place the chopped vegetables in a pot, the doorbell rang, startling her. She wiped her hands on a towel and walked to the door, her heart racing with unease. When she opened it, she found Isabelle standing there, her expression unreadable.“Isabelle,” Clara said, forcing a smile. “What

**A Tangled Web of Secrets**The sound of Clara’s voice carried through the hallway as Michael entered her modest apartment. She was on the phone, her tone sharp, her words clipped. He stood in the doorway, waiting for her to notice him. When she finally hung up and turned, her eyes lit up momentarily before her expression hardened.“You’re late,” Clara said, crossing her arms over her chest.Michael smirked, closing the door behind him. “You know I can’t just disappear without raising suspicion, Clara. Andrew’s been watching me like a hawk since Isabelle started telling him everything.”Clara turned away, pacing the small living room. Her movements were restless, a bundle of nervous energy. “I can’t keep hiding this, Michael. I’m already three months in, and soon it won’t be something I can cover with loose dresses.”Michael’s face darkened. “You can’t tell him, Clara. Not now.”“Then what do you suggest I do?” she snapped, spinning to face him. “He’s going to figure it out eventuall

**Whispers of Betrayal**The morning sun barely broke through the gray clouds that loomed over the house as Isabelle sat at the dining table, absently stirring her tea. Her mind was elsewhere, preoccupied by Clara’s constant presence near their home. Andrew had tried to reassure her the day before, but Isabelle couldn’t ignore the growing unease in her chest. Something was wrong—she felt it in her bones.“Mommy, you’re not drinking,” Liliana’s small voice cut through her thoughts.Isabelle smiled faintly, reaching over to brush her daughter’s hair back. “I’m just thinking, sweetheart. Go on, finish your breakfast.”Andrew entered the room, holding his phone to his ear, his face tense. Isabelle caught snippets of his conversation: mentions of meetings, pressing issues at work, and a request to push some appointments back.When he hung up, he met Isabelle’s gaze. “Things at the office are a mess right now. I might have to leave early and stay late.”“Again?” Isabelle couldn’t keep the d

**A Hidden Revelation**Isabelle’s heart was heavy with a mixture of fear and determination. She couldn’t ignore the nagging feeling that there was more to Liliana’s rapid growth and uncanny abilities than she or Andrew could understand. Her daughter was extraordinary, but being extraordinary came with its challenges. Isabelle was willing to confront anything to ensure Liliana’s safety and happiness.That morning, Isabelle decided to take a deeper look into her family history. The nagging thought that there might be a connection to her past wouldn’t leave her alone. As Andrew busied himself with work and Liliana played in the garden, Isabelle retreated to the attic.The attic was a place she rarely visited—a dusty, cobwebbed space filled with old boxes, forgotten trinkets, and family heirlooms. The air smelled of aged wood and mothballs, but Isabelle pressed on, rummaging through boxes marked with her maiden name.After nearly an hour of searching, she stumbled upon a leather-bound jo

**The Mystery Deepens**Isabelle paced the living room, her eyes darting toward the stairs where Liliana slept peacefully in her room. She couldn’t ignore the subtle but undeniable signs anymore. Her daughter wasn’t just developing quickly—she was advancing at an unprecedented rate. At six months old, Liliana spoke in full sentences, displayed an uncanny understanding of her surroundings, and even corrected Isabelle’s grammar once, much to her bewilderment.The whispered remarks from Clara and others were beginning to eat away at Isabelle’s resolve. She needed answers, but more than that, she needed reassurance.Andrew entered the room, rubbing his temples after a long day at work. “You’re still up?” he asked, dropping onto the couch.“Andrew,” Isabelle began, her voice shaky. “We need to talk about Liliana.”Andrew’s brows furrowed. “What about her?”“She’s... growing too fast. It’s not just her height or the way she speaks. It’s everything,” Isabelle said, sitting beside him. “Peopl

**A Daughter’s Secret**The morning sunlight spilled into Isabelle and Andrew’s home, casting a warm glow over their tranquil surroundings. Yet, Isabelle couldn’t shake the growing unease that had settled in her heart. Her daughter, Liliana, was changing in ways that defied explanation. At just three months old, she appeared closer to a three-year-old, her body developing far beyond normal growth patterns.Isabelle stood at the doorway of Liliana’s nursery, watching as her daughter quietly flipped through a picture book, her tiny fingers moving with an agility far beyond her age. Liliana’s piercing eyes glanced up, locking onto Isabelle’s gaze. A shiver ran through Isabelle—those eyes held an intelligence she couldn’t comprehend.“Mommy, why are you staring?” Liliana asked, her voice unnervingly articulate for a child so young.Isabelle’s heart raced. “I’m just... amazed at how quickly you’re learning, sweetheart,” she managed, forcing a smile.Liliana tilted her head, studying her mo

** Threads of Deception**Clara sat in her bedroom, the weight of the secrets she had kept pressing down on her chest like a boulder. Michael’s manipulation had become unbearable, but what truly haunted her was the looming confrontation with Andrew and Isabelle. She had tried to maintain the facade, yet it was clear to her now that everything was unraveling.Meanwhile, Michael was far from idle. His motivations were no longer limited to his relationship with Clara; he now saw an opportunity to divide Andrew and Isabelle entirely. He had always been a man of schemes, and this time, his plan was more sinister than ever.That evening, Andrew was working late at his study, attempting to focus on the paperwork piling up on his desk. However, his mind kept drifting to Clara’s recent behavior. Her evasion and odd remarks played over and over in his thoughts, mingled with the chilling warnings from Michael.Suddenly, his phone buzzed. It was a message from an unknown number.Unknown Number: A

**Secrets in the Shadows**Clara sat in her small apartment, staring at her phone as a stream of conflicted thoughts swirled in her mind. The visit to Andrew had been a step toward reconciliation, but her affair with Michael continued to weigh heavily on her. She had cut ties with him after realizing the devastation it had caused, but Michael wasn’t willing to let go so easily.A message popped up on her screen.Michael: We need to talk. This isn’t over.Clara clenched her fists, her heart racing. She knew she should delete the message, block his number, and move on, but a part of her feared what he might do if she ignored him. Michael had a way of making himself unavoidable, and his persistence was beginning to feel like a noose tightening around her neck.She grabbed her coat and headed out, hoping the cool night air would clear her head. But as she stepped onto the dimly lit street, she couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was watching her.Back at home, Andrew and Isabelle sat

**Healing the Wounds**Days turned into weeks, and the silence in Andrew and Isabelle’s home grew heavier. Andrew became a shadow of himself, often leaving early for work and returning late, avoiding confrontation. His anger at Clara and Michael simmered beneath the surface, but what consumed him most was his lingering uncertainty about Isabelle. Her reassurance that the baby was his brought him some solace, yet his wounded pride left him unable to fully open up.One evening, Isabelle couldn’t bear the distance any longer. She found him sitting in his study, staring blankly at a pile of untouched paperwork.“Andrew,” she said softly, stepping inside.He glanced up but didn’t respond.She closed the door behind her and moved closer. “We can’t keep living like this. This silence—it’s killing us.”Andrew sighed, rubbing his temples. “What do you want me to say, Isabelle? I trusted people I loved, and they broke me. I don’t even know where to start.”She knelt beside his chair, taking his
