THE DOCTOR'S BEAUTIFUL WIFE. Chapter 10
**A Web of Deceptions**The afternoon sun filtered through the canopy of trees as Isabelle walked briskly toward the park bench where Michael sat waiting. Her heart pounded with every step, her mind replaying the damning words from Andrew’s emails.Michael looked up as she approached, his expression a mix of concern and urgency. “Isabelle,” he began, standing to greet her. “I’m glad you came.”She crossed her arms, her voice sharp. “This better be important, Michael. I’m not in the mood for games.”Michael’s jaw tightened. “It’s not a game, Isabelle. I’ve been digging into Andrew’s background, and I found something you need to see.”Michael handed her a folder. She hesitated before opening it, bracing herself for whatever was inside. The first page was a financial document, showing significant sums of money being transferred to an account under Jessica’s name.“What is this?” Isabelle asked, her voice trembling.“It’s a pattern,” Michael said. “Andrew’s been sending money to Jessica f

**Shattered Pieces**Isabelle sat motionless, her breathing shallow as Jessica’s words echoed in the room. “I want everything.” The confidence in her tone, the smirk playing on her lips—it was all too much.Andrew stood rooted to the spot, guilt and helplessness etched on his face. Isabelle’s chest tightened as realization struck her like a blow. She was standing in the middle of a nightmare, and Andrew, the man she trusted most, had invited it into their lives.Jessica walked over to the couch and sat down as if she owned the place. “It’s amusing, really. You built your life around him, didn’t you?” she said, her tone dripping with mockery. “The perfect wife in the perfect little marriage. But you were never more than a placeholder, my dear.”“Stop,” Isabelle whispered, her voice shaking.Jessica’s smirk widened. “Why? You deserve the truth. You’re living in my shadow, Isabelle. Always have been, always will.Isabelle turned to Andrew, her eyes pleading. “Is that true? Am I just… a s

** A Forbidden Flame**The days following Isabelle’s discovery were a blur of confusion and heartache. Her world had been flipped upside down by Andrew’s betrayal, Jessica’s schemes, and Michael’s cryptic warnings. As much as she wanted to confront Andrew about everything, the growing distance between them made it impossible. He buried himself in his work, offering no explanations, while Isabelle found herself drawn to the one person who seemed to understand her turmoil—Michael.It was late in the evening when Isabelle decided to meet Michael again. She told herself it was for answers, that she needed clarity about the secrets he hinted at. But deep down, she knew there was something more—a longing she couldn’t admit, even to herself.Michael was waiting at the same café, a steaming cup of coffee in front of him. His face lit up when he saw her, but there was a flicker of hesitation in his eyes.“You came,” he said softly.“I needed to,” Isabelle replied, sitting across from him. “You

**Secrets Unfold**Andrew’s sister, Miranda, had always been a force to be reckoned with. Sharp-tongued and fiercely independent, she had never been one to let others dictate her life. Leaving Andrew’s house after the chaos she had stirred felt like shedding a heavy weight. But Miranda wasn’t retreating; she was merely recalibrating her plans.Miranda drove to the city, her thoughts racing. Her mind replayed the heated exchanges at Andrew’s house, but she brushed them aside. Andrew’s problems were his own now. She had bigger things to focus on.She pulled up to an upscale apartment complex and made her way to the 15th floor. A man opened the door—a tall, well-dressed figure with piercing gray eyes and a mischievous smile.“Miranda,” he greeted her warmly, pulling her into a tight embrace.“Zachary,” she murmured, her voice softening. “I missed you.”Zachary had been Miranda’s secret for months—a whirlwind romance that she had kept hidden from everyone, especially Andrew. Their relatio

**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

**Unraveling the Past**Isabelle’s fingers trembled as she clutched the letter, the words blurring before her eyes."You were never supposed to be born."The weight of the sentence pressed against her chest, making it difficult to breathe. She felt Michael’s presence beside her, steady and grounding, but even he couldn’t anchor her against the storm raging inside.“How can that be?” she whispered, her voice barely audible.Michael gently took the papers from her hands, scanning them with furrowed brows. “This… this doesn’t make sense.”Eric stepped into the room, his gaze flicking between them and the letter. “What does it say?”Isabelle swallowed hard before continuing, her voice wavering."They wanted to erase me. To erase you. I thought I had hidden you well enough, but the past has a way of catching up. If you're reading this, Isabelle, it means I failed to keep you safe."The room seemed to shrink around her.Michael exhaled sharply, setting the papers down. “Who is ‘they’?”Eric

**A Reflection in Time** Isabelle’s breath hitched as she locked eyes with the woman standing at the top of the stairs. It was like looking into a distorted mirror—everything about her was the same. The way her dark curls framed her face, the curve of her jaw, the way she stood, still and silent. But something was different. The woman’s eyes were hollow, almost… distant, as if she wasn’t fully there. Michael stepped forward instinctively, his protective nature kicking in. “Who is that?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper. The woman didn’t move, didn’t speak. She only watched. Isabelle felt frozen in place. The air around her thickened, heavy with something unspoken, something ancient. The house seemed to be holding its breath, waiting. Eric’s voice broke the silence. “Isabelle… are you sure you’ve never been here before?” She swallowed hard, shaking her head. “I—I don’t know.” Alistair exhaled sharply. “This house remembers.” The words sent a chill down her spine. And

** Unraveling the Threads**Isabelle felt a strange sense of déjà vu as she stared at the photograph in front of her. The woman—Eleanor Beaumont—looked exactly like her, down to the smallest detail. It was as if time had folded in on itself, pulling her into a mystery that had been waiting for her all along.Michael and Eric exchanged glances, both sensing the gravity of the revelation.Professor Alistair studied Isabelle carefully. “You don’t seem surprised.”Isabelle exhaled slowly. “Because deep down, I think I always knew something was… off. My whole life, I’ve had this feeling like I was searching for something I couldn’t name. Like there was a part of me I’d forgotten.”Alistair nodded. “And now, you’re starting to remember.”Michael frowned. “Are you saying she’s… reincarnated?”“Not necessarily,” the professor replied. “But there’s a pattern here—one that suggests she’s been tied to this history for a very long time.”Eric crossed his arms. “That still doesn’t explain why some

**A Step Into the Unknown**The weight of her decision settled in Isabelle’s chest like a stone. No more running. No more hiding. She was ready to face whatever lay ahead, no matter how tangled or dangerous the truth might be.Eric leaned back in his chair, studying her with a mix of admiration and concern. “If you’re really committed to this, there’s someone you need to meet.”Michael frowned. “Who?”“A historian,” Eric replied. “Someone who’s been tracking the legacy of your family for years. He might not have all the answers, but he knows more than anyone else.”Isabelle hesitated for only a moment before nodding. “Then let’s go.”The drive to the historian’s house was long and filled with tension. Michael’s hand rested protectively over Isabelle’s, while Eric focused on the road, his jaw tight with unspoken thoughts.When they finally arrived at the secluded cottage, Isabelle felt a strange sense of familiarity. The place had an old-world charm, with ivy crawling up its stone wall

**Secrets Unraveled**Isabelle sat frozen, her mother’s letter trembling in her hands. The truth she had just uncovered was almost too much to process. Her entire life had been built on a lie. The man she had always called her father… wasn’t. And the man she had never met—the one her mother had loved in secret—was the key to everything.Michael watched her closely, his expression unreadable. “Are you okay?”She let out a shaky breath. “I don’t know. I feel like my whole life just flipped upside down.”Michael reached for the letter, scanning it once more. “Your mother must have had a reason for keeping this hidden. But why now? Why did Andrew’s father want you to find this?”Isabelle frowned, her mind racing. “Maybe he wanted to tell me himself but never got the chance. Or… maybe there’s something bigger at play here.”Michael set the letter down, leaning closer. “If your real father is connected to Andrew’s family, that means you have a direct link to their legacy.”A chill ran down

**The Key to the Past**The cold metal of the key felt heavier in Isabelle’s palm as she clutched it tightly. The world around her blurred as Michael guided her through the maze of Rosewood Garden. Carla and Victor had stayed behind to delay their pursuers, but time was running out.“Where are we going?” Isabelle whispered as they reached the garden’s back gate.Michael glanced over his shoulder, making sure no one was following them. “Somewhere safe.”Safe. The word felt meaningless now. Ever since she had uncovered the truth about her father—or rather, the man she had always believed was her father—nothing had felt safe.They reached Michael’s car, parked a short distance away on a quiet side street. As soon as they were inside, Michael started the engine, pulling away from Rosewood Garden. Isabelle exhaled a shaky breath, staring down at the small key in her hands.“This key… it must lead to something important,” she murmured.Michael nodded, his eyes focused on the road. “And we’r

** Secrets Beneath the Roses**The drive to Rosewood Garden was filled with tense silence. Isabelle clutched the music box tightly in her lap, her mother’s words echoing in her mind.“Follow the roses. They will lead you home.”What did she mean by home?Michael sat beside her, his hand resting protectively over hers, as if sensing her anxiety. Carla and Victor kept their eyes on the road, ensuring they weren’t being followed. The black SUVs had disappeared, but they all knew it was only temporary. Whoever was after them wouldn’t give up so easily.As Victor pulled up to the entrance of Rosewood Garden, a rush of nostalgia hit Isabelle. The place looked exactly as she remembered—rows of lush, blooming roses in every shade of red and pink stretched out in an intricate maze. A cobblestone path led to a quiet fountain at the center, the water glistening under the afternoon sun.Isabelle stepped out of the car, her heart pounding. “We need to find it.”Michael followed closely, scanning t

**Echoes of the Past**Isabelle’s fingers trembled as she turned the key in the lock of her old apartment. The place smelled faintly of lavender, just as she had left it, yet the air felt heavy with the weight of the past. Michael stood behind her, his presence a comforting anchor, while Carla and Victor waited outside, keeping watch.She stepped inside cautiously, her gaze scanning the familiar surroundings. Everything looked untouched—except for the slight shift in the picture frames on the wall.Someone had been here.Her heart pounded. Had they found the music box already?Michael noticed her hesitation and gently placed a hand on her shoulder. “We’ll find it,” he assured her.Taking a deep breath, Isabelle walked toward her bedroom. The antique wooden music box sat on the top shelf of her closet, right where she had last placed it. It was small, delicate, with intricate carvings of roses on the lid.She carefully pulled it down, running her fingers over the surface. Her mother ha

**Secrets Unfold**Isabelle stared at the black envelope in her hands. It felt heavier than it should, as though it carried the weight of decades of secrets.Michael and Carla stood close by, their eyes filled with concern. Even Victor, the father she had just found, remained tense, watching her reaction carefully.She inhaled sharply before sliding her finger under the seal and pulling out a neatly folded letter along with a small, aged photograph.Her mother’s face stared back at her.A younger version of her, smiling softly, standing beside Victor. They looked happy—like a family. But the back of the photograph had something written in neat, slanted handwriting:“Protect her at all costs. No matter what.”Isabelle’s hands trembled as she unfolded the letter. The first few lines made her breath hitch.“Isabelle, if you’re reading this, then I’ve failed to keep you away from this world. I never wanted you to be involved, but fate has a way of pulling us back in.”Her grip tightened.
