The One He Let Go Congratulations
AdrianThe opening of the D.C. hospital branch was overly formal, with people too eager to make themselves known. The kind of gathering where deals were made over half-filled wine glasses and fake smiles. I wasn’t in the mood, but then again, who ever was? It was just part of the game, and I’d been playing for years. I spotted Davis almost immediately as I walked in. He wasn’t hard to miss, the man had a presence, as usual. He was dressed perfectly, as if every detail had been meticulously calculated, from his suit to the way he carried himself. And that smile, charming but with just enough edge to make you wonder what he really wanted. He caught my eye and made his way toward me, smoothly passing through the crowd. I stood a little straighter, not quite sure what to expect. “Adrian, Congratulations on your hospital opening” he greeted, extending his hand. “It’s good to see you again, my friend.” His grip was firm, friendly, but there was a certain weight behind it. Like he wa

AndersonThe morning after the meeting with Davis, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. My usual instincts honed over years of dealing with the business world sharks screamed at me. But no matter how much I tried to ignore it, the nagging sensation refused to go away. Davis wasn’t just another player, he was someone with deep ties to my life, Kate’s past. And that, more than anything, made my skin crawl.I spent the next few hours digging through old files and financial records. My desk was piled with papers and scattered notes, evidence of my obsession. One after another, I flipped through documents, tracing connections between Kate and Davis, and every little detail that might link them together. Photos, receipts, old event invitations, anything that could provide a clue.At first, there was nothing. But then, hidden in the corners of a file marked “Personal Investments,” I found a string of emails between Davis and Kate, dating back several years. The tone was forma

KellyThe sound of my heels echoed against the polished floor as I made my way to my office. The day had barely begun, yet my schedule was already packed. But the one meeting I couldn’t ignore was with Mr. Davis. He’d reached out again, this time proposing a partnership for a new charity initiative. On paper, it was everything I wanted, an opportunity to support underfunded schools in lower-income areas. Yet, there was something about him that I couldn’t quite place. His charm felt good, his words always walking the fine line between flattery and something more calculated. By the time he arrived, I had prepared myself to keep the conversation strictly professional. “Congresswoman,” Mr. Davis greeted me with a smile as he stepped into my office. He was as polished as ever, his tailored suit fitting perfectly and his confident demeanor filling the room. “It’s always a pleasure.” “Mr. Davis,” I replied, keeping my tone measured as I gestured for him to sit. “You’ve certainly been

KellyThe sound of heels clicking against the polished marble floor outside my office door was the only warning I got before she stormed in unannounced. I didn’t have to look up to know it was her. When I finally glanced up, her eyes were blazing, her lips pressed into a thin, furious line. “We need to talk,” Kate snapped, slamming the door behind her. I set my pen down, taking a deep breath. “What are you doing in my office?” She didn’t bother sitting. Instead, she placed both hands on the edge of my desk, leaning forward in a way that made her look predatory. “Why didn’t you tell me about Dad’s new nursing home?” I frowned, confused. “What about it?” Her nails dug into the surface. “You moved him, Kelly. Without consulting me. Do you realize how humiliating it was to find out from one of the nurses that he’s no longer at the facility I approved? How dare you make that decision on your own?” I leaned back in my chair, meeting her gaze. “I didn’t think it needed discuss

KellyAdrian and I had been too busy to have those conversations about Kate, I had so much on my plate and that includes going to Harper’s school event today. I had been to her school countless events over the years, but none had ever left me feeling as uneasy as this one. The bright lights and cheerful decorations in the gymnasium did little to settle my nerves. Harper walked beside me, clutching the ribbon she had earned earlier that day, her excitement radiating in every step. I should have been happy, proud even, but my mind was elsewhere. I had known Aiden attended this school. I had just found out a week ago after going to pick Harper and seeing Evelyn pick up Aiden. Seeing him here, in Harper’s world, was something I hadn’t prepared for. I had changed Harper’s school more than once, hoping to avoid complications like this, yet somehow fate always found a way to close the gap between them. The moment came faster than I expected. “Mom! Over there!” Harper said, tugging at

Adrian The envelope sat on my desk, taunting me as I stared back at it for the 100th time. A few days ago, I had been desperate for this moment, eager for answers. Now, I wasn’t so sure. I leaned back in my chair, staring at the small logo of the testing lab. It was absurd, really—this small package held the power to change everything. My hand hovered over it, hesitant. The truth had a funny way of unraveling the world as you knew it, and once it was out, there would be no taking it back. A knock on my office door snapped me out of my thoughts. “Adrian? You in there?” Kelly’s voice was soft but carried a tone of concern. I hurriedly slid the envelope into a drawer and cleared my throat. “Come in.” The door creaked open, and Kelly stepped inside. She was holding a folder, her brow furrowed in that way that always made her look more serious than she was. “Amelia said you missed the budget meeting,” she said, her tone casual, though her eyes searched mine for something more

KellyAiden’s words lingered in my mind, heavy and unresolved, coupled with Adrian’s strange behavior lately. Aiden’s confrontation at the school had shaken me in ways I hadn’t expected. There was something in his tone, his choice of words that made me think he was holding back more than just anger. And then there were the anonymous messages that had started coming through. But as much as Aiden’s confrontation weighed on me, my unease shifted when my thoughts landed on Mr. Davis. Something about him had never sat right with me, even before his recent entanglement in Adrian’s affairs. His charm had always seemed too smooth, his presence too calculated. The way he sticked around Adrian, the call Adrian had received—it all pointed to secrets I could no longer ignore. Sitting in my office late this night, I decided it was time to uncover the truth. My fingers hovered over the keyboard, hesitating for only a second before typing: Mr. Davis life before wealth. The search results loade

Anderson My mind were closing in. The anger, the confusion, the betrayal, it was all too much to handle. Each word Davis had spoken echoed in my head, louder than anything else, until it was all I could hear. My mother, my own mother had known about the past Kate had with Mr. Davis. And worse yet, she hadn’t told me yet. It was as if the ground beneath my feet had cracked open, revealing her face of deceit, lies, and half-truths. I had always trusted my mom, believed in her wisdom, in her ability to guide me, to help me make the right decisions. But now, everything felt like a lie. Why didn’t she tell me?The question kept repeating in my mind, echoeing like a broken record. She had always been so careful, so calculated with what she chose to reveal. But this….this was beyond anything I could have imagined. I was pacing the office, my thoughts spinning with confusion. How long had she known? How much had she hidden from me?I had spent years building this empire, trying to sec

The One He Let Go The end
Dear Readers, I can’t believe we’ve reached the end of Kelly’s story. Writing this book has been an emotional rollercoaster, and I know many of you have felt the highs and lows just as deeply as I have. Kelly’s journey wasn’t easy, there was pain, heartbreak, and moments where it seemed like happiness was out of reach. But through it all, she found strength, love, and a future worth fighting for. To everyone who stuck by this story, who cried, laughed, and rooted for Kelly, Aiden, Adrian, and even the complicated characters like Anderson and Kate, thank you. Your love and support mean everything. Though this book has ended, Kelly’s story will always live on in our hearts. And who knows? Maybe one day, there will be more to tell. But for now, I hope this ending brings you the closure and warmth that Kelly fought so hard to find. With love and gratitude, MOONCHILD.
The One He Let Go Epilogue: The real wedding
Kelly The sun is warm against my skin, the sky a perfect colour of blue. A soft breeze carries the scent of roses and fresh-cut grass. The sound of distant laughter and murmured conversations fills the air, blending seamlessly with the soft notes of a violin playing somewhere nearby. It’s perfect. Everything about this day feels surreal, like stepping into a dream I never dared to imagine. A real wedding. Not a hidden ceremony. Not a desperate attempt to silence rumors. Just love. I close my eyes for a brief moment, taking it all in. The gentle rustling of the trees. The faint sound of conversation. The quiet presence of everyone who matters. Adrian’s family is here. After months of resentment and distance, they came. His mother, his father, Olivia, both watching with cautious but genuine smiles. Susan is here, standing with them, her expression warm, proud. And in the distance, I see Aiden straightening his suit, looking nervous and determined at the same time. Harper,

KellyNine months. Nine long, exhausting, emotional months. And now, I’m here. In a hospital bed, drenched in sweat, gripping Adrian’s hand so tightly that I’m sure I’ve cut off his circulation. My body feels like it’s being torn apart, and yet, I push. “Just a little more, Kelly!” the doctor encourages. Easy for them to say. They aren’t the ones feeling like their body is being split open. Adrian leans close, his lips brushing my forehead. “You’re almost there,” he murmurs, his voice steady, calming. “I’ve got you.” Tears sting my eyes. I don’t know if it’s from the pain or the overwhelming feeling that this moment is actually happening. And then, a sharp cry fills the room. My breath catches. The world seemed to stop. The doctor lifts a tiny, wriggling body into the air. “It’s a girl!” A sob escapes me. I collapse back against the pillows, my whole body trembling. Tears slip down my temples as I hear my daughter’s first sounds. I did it. She’s here. Adrian presses a

Kelly The morning is cold, the kind of D.C winter chill that seeps through the layers of your clothes and lingers deep in your bones. I clutch my coffee cup tighter, trying to soak in the warmth as I step out of the café. The city is alive as always, cars honking, people hurrying past, lost in their own worlds. And then I see her. At first, I didn't recognize the figure crouched near the side of the building, wrapped in an oversized hoodie, the fabric frayed at the edges. Her hair is tangled, falling over a gaunt face. Her fingers, red from the cold, clutch a small cardboard sign. ‘Hungry. Please help.’My breath catches. Kate. She’s thinner than I remember. A shell of the woman she once was. She sits with her knees pulled close, gaze darting to every passerby, but no one stops. No one even looks at her. And I realize, this is what rock bottom looks like. For a long moment, I just stood there. Then, before I can talk myself out of it, I move. She doesn’t notice me at fir
The One He Let Go Mending what’s broken
Kelly It happens on a quiet afternoon. Adrian and I are sitting on the couch, Harper curled up between us, absentmindedly flipping through a picture book while Adrian scrolls through emails on his phone. It’s peaceful. And then, I see his posture stiffen. I glance at him. “What’s wrong?” His brows are furrowed, lips pressing into a thin line as he reads whatever message is on his screen. For a long moment, he doesn’t answer. Then, finally, he exhales, setting the phone down on his thigh. “My parents,” he says, rubbing his jaw. “They want to talk.” I blink. I wasn’t expecting that. “Talk… as in?” “As in dinner. A sit-down conversation.” He shakes his head slightly, as if he’s still processing it himself. “They sent an invitation. No conditions. Just… a request to see me.” I can’t tell if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. His parents and I became a sore subject, one of the few places where his love for me had cost him something. I know how deeply it hurt him when they rej
The One He Let Go The final goodbye
KellyThe call came in the middle of the night. I wake up to the sound of my phone vibrating on the nightstand. My first thought is that it’s Adrian, maybe he’s checking in from the living room where he sometimes falls asleep after reading. But when I grab my phone and see Susan’s name glowing on the screen, my stomach twists. I answer on the second ring. “He’s gone,” she says softly. Two words. Just two words, and for a second, I feel absolutely nothing. I sit there in the dark, the phone pressed to my ear, my mind blank. I should have expected it, Anderson’s health had been failing, and yet… hearing it, knowing it’s real, knowing there will never be another word, another regret-filled gaze, it’s different. Susan stays quiet, as if she knows I needed a moment. Then, like a wave finally crashing, it hits. A sharp, aching weight pressing down on my chest. My throat tightens, my vision blurs, and before I can stop it, I let out a small, choked sob. I feel Adrian shift be
The One He Let Go Goodbye that’s long overdue
KellyI grip Aiden’s hand tighter as we walk down the hallway, past closed doors and nurses who barely glance at us. His fingers clutch mine, his other hand curled into a fist at his side. I wonder if he’s nervous. If he regrets coming. Because I do. I swallow hard as we stop outside Anderson’s room. The door is slightly ajar, but I don’t move. Aiden looks up at me, uncertain. His dark eyes are searching, waiting for me to give him permission to go inside. I force myself to nod. “Are you ready?” He hesitates, then nods back. I push the door open. And we stepped. Anderson looks… different. His skin is pale, almost gray under the harsh hospital lights. The strong, confident posture he once carried is gone, replaced by sunken shoulders and frail limbs tangled in hospital sheets. But his eyes, the sharpness in them, the smug curve of his lips, that’s still him. His gaze drifts past me, landing on Aiden. And his smirk, despite everything, still appears. “Thanks for coming.” Hi
The One He Let Go The past catches up
Kelly The call came in the middle of the night. My phone buzzes against the nightstand, dragging me from sleep. I blink, groggy, confusion heavy in my head as I fumble for it. Adrian stirs beside me, mumbling something unintelligible before rolling over. I don’t recognize the number. But the moment I press the phone to my ear, Susan’s voice, low and weighted with something different fills the silence. “Kelly, I’m sorry for calling so late.” I sit up instantly, dread curling in my stomach. “What’s wrong?”A beat. Then….“It’s Anderson. He doesn’t have much time.” The words don’t sink in right away. My fingers tighten around the phone. “What do you mean?” Susan exhales. “His condition worsened tonight. The doctors don’t think he’ll make it much longer. If you—” She hesitates. “If Aiden wants to see him, it has to be soon.” The room feels colder. I glance at the clock. 2:17 AM. The world outside quiet by this moment. But my body knows. My body feels the shift, I felt goo
The One He Let Go A child’s, A mother’s regret
KellyHarper was avoiding me. It wasn’t like the usual tantrums when she was upset over bedtime or not getting a second helping with ice cream. This was different. It had been days now, long enough for the silence to settle like a weight in my chest. She wouldn’t sit next to me at breakfast. Wouldn’t let me brush her hair. Wouldn’t even look me in the eyes when I spoke to her. But she clung to Adrian. If Adrian walked into a room, she was at his side in seconds, grabbing his hand, leaning against him, giggling at every little thing he said. She held onto him like he was her safe place, like she was afraid of something. Or someone. And that someone was me. I didn’t know what I had done. But I knew it was breaking me. ……It was bedtime when I finally couldn’t take it anymore. Adrian had just tucked Harper in, but instead of curling into her blankets the way she usually did, she turned away from me when I walked into the room.
