TRAPPED WITH MY DAD'S BESTFRIEND CHAPTER 220
The calm after the exhibit was short-lived. Bridgette’s triumph was celebrated in Monaco’s circles, her sculpture making waves beyond the event. But success had a way of drawing out old ghosts, and soon enough, whispers began to circulate—whispers that hinted at the return of someone neither of us wanted to deal with: Cynthia.It started with a simple call from Lucia.“She’s back,” Lucia said, her tone sharp. “I overheard her talking at a private luncheon. She’s been asking about you and Thiago.”Bridgette was seated across from me at our breakfast table, savoring a fresh croissant when I put the phone on speaker. Her relaxed expression turned icy at the mention of Cynthia’s name.“What does she want now?” Bridgette asked, her voice steely.“Leverage,” Lucia replied. “From what I gathered, she’s trying to position herself back into Victor’s favor—and that means dragging your name through the mud.”Bridgette clenched her jaw, her fingers tightening around her coffee mug. “She never kno

{thiago]The pressure was relentless, and even with our best efforts, the weight of Cynthia and Justin’s schemes loomed over us like a storm cloud. Bridgette, always so composed and strong, had been working tirelessly, determined to protect her family's legacy. But as the days dragged on, I began to see the toll it was taking on her.One evening, I found her in the studio, staring blankly at her unfinished sculpture. Her hands trembled as she tried to work the clay, but it crumbled beneath her touch.“Bridgette,” I said softly, stepping closer. “You’ve been pushing yourself too hard.”She shook her head, tears welling in her eyes. “I can’t stop, Thiago. If I let up even for a moment, they’ll win. They’ll take everything.”I reached for her, gently pulling her into my arms. “We’re fighting this together. But you have to take care of yourself too. What happens to all of this if you burn out?”She didn’t answer, just buried her face in my chest, her body trembling with suppressed emotion

Despite the glimmers of hope and progress, Cynthia and Justin refused to back down. Their next move came in the form of a court summons—an audacious lawsuit claiming defamation and damages from the public fallout after Bridgette’s pregnancy announcement.“They’re claiming we ruined their reputation?” Bridgette exclaimed, pacing the living room. Her hand rested protectively over her belly as her frustration mounted. “They’ve been the ones spreading lies about us!”“They’re bluffing,” I reassured her, though I couldn’t hide my own irritation. “This is a scare tactic. They want to distract us from the real fight.”Victor, seated across from us with a stack of legal documents, nodded in agreement. “Their case is flimsy, but we’ll need to counter it aggressively. If we can prove malice and falsehood in their claims, we could turn this into a significant win.”We decided to take control of the narrative once and for all. I arranged a press conference where Bridgette and I addressed the rumo

With the chaos behind us, our days slowly found rhythm. Bridgette’s health continued to improve, and her confidence grew stronger with each passing day. Though we had overcome so much, the weeks leading up to the baby’s arrival were filled with new challenges, albeit ones we welcomed.One afternoon, Bridgette stood in the middle of the nursery, her hands resting on her belly. She’d chosen soft greens and whites for the room, accented with woodland animal decals along the walls. The crib sat under the large bay window, sunlight spilling over its polished wood.“It’s perfect,” she whispered, her voice thick with emotion.I stepped behind her, wrapping my arms around her waist and resting my chin on her shoulder. “It’s not just perfect—it’s ready for our little miracle.”She smiled, leaning back against me. For the first time in months, her laughter came easily, like music filling the quiet of the room.As we moved forward, an unexpected visitor brought a reminder of our past. Victor arr

The weeks following Emilia’s birth were filled with tender moments and sleepless nights, but it was a rhythm Bridgette and I quickly embraced. She was thriving in her new role as a mother, and seeing her light up whenever she held Emilia made everything we had gone through feel worth it.But peace never seemed to last in our world.One afternoon, as I was working in my study, Lucia burst into the room without knocking—a sure sign something was wrong.“What is it?” I asked, putting down my pen.Her face was pale, her usual confidence replaced by unease. “Thiago, there’s a situation.”My stomach tightened. “What kind of situation?”She hesitated before replying. “It’s Victor. He’s back, and he’s making noise about challenging your position in the company.”Victor. My former right-hand man turned adversary. He had been ousted years ago after betraying my trust and attempting to sabotage a critical project. I thought I’d seen the last of him, but apparently, he had other plans.“What’s hi

The weight of the unknown pressed heavily on me as I stared at the cryptic message on my phone. Someone was playing a dangerous game, and they knew exactly where to hit—Bridgette and Emilia.Lucia was already making the security calls when I stepped out onto the balcony, needing a moment to clear my head. The city below was alive with lights and movement, oblivious to the storm brewing in my life.I had dealt with enemies before—rivals, corporate snakes, even men who thought they could intimidate me into submission. But this was different. This was personal.And if someone thought they could come after my family, they had no idea who they were dealing with.Back at the house, Bridgette was pacing in the nursery, watching over Emilia with a troubled expression. I could see the worry etched into her face, the way she held her arms tightly around herself as if shielding against an invisible force.She looked up the moment I walked in. “Thiago…”I crossed the room and cupped her face, for

Thiago paced in his office, fingers drumming against his desk as Lucia sat across from him, her arms crossed."You need to get ahead of this," she said. "If Cynthia really has something on Bridgette's father, you know what that means."Thiago exhaled sharply. "It means she has leverage that could ruin us."Lucia nodded. "Bridgette almost lost the baby from stress once. Do you think she can handle finding out whatever it is Cynthia has?"That was the part that haunted him. Bridgette was strong, but her body had already suffered under the weight of everything that had happened. Another shock, another betrayal—he wasn't sure she could take it.He pulled out his phone and dialed Marcus."Find out what dirt Cynthia has on Bridgette’s father," he ordered the second Marcus picked up. "I don’t care how. Just get me answers—fast."Bridgette sat in the nursery, watching Emilia sleep. The rhythmic rise and fall of her daughter’s tiny chest should have soothed her, but her mind wouldn’t stop raci

Bridgette could feel her pulse in her ears, her breath uneven as she stared at Thiago. His words hung between them, thick with tension, but she couldn’t process them—not fully.Could she still stand by him?After everything?Her father had ruined his family. He had been keeping the truth from her. And yet, Thiago still chose to stay.Bridgette’s fingers curled into fists.“You don’t get to put this on me,” she hissed, her voice raw. “You should’ve told me the moment you found out. Instead, you let me be the fool while you—”“While I what, Bridgette?” Thiago cut in, his tone low, controlled. “While I stayed by your side? While I protected you? While I—”He stopped himself, his jaw clenching.Bridgette’s heart slammed against her ribs.She shook her head. “I need space.”Thiago’s gaze darkened. “No.”Bridgette flinched. “What?”“I’m not letting you walk away from this,” he said, stepping forward, closing the space between them. “I’m not letting you run just because it’s easier than faci

A sharp, searing pain tore through my abdomen, yanking me out of sleep. A strangled gasp escaped my lips as my hands clutched at my stomach, an unbearable pressure building in my lower body. A cold sweat broke out across my skin, and nausea churned violently in my gut.Something was wrong.I tried to shift, but the pain only intensified, sending another wave of agony through me. My breathing hitched, coming in short, desperate pants. I barely registered Thiago stirring beside me, his brows furrowing at the sound of my distress. Then, as if sensing my panic, his eyes snapped open.“Bridgette?” His voice was sharp, laced with concern, as he reached for me.“I—” The word barely left my mouth before another stab of pain stole my breath away. My vision blurred, dark spots dancing at the edges.Thiago didn’t hesitate. He was out of bed in an instant, already grabbing his phone.“Marcus! Get the car ready. Now!” His voice was tight with urgency.I barely noticed the frantic rustling of movem
