Chapter 111

Sarah’s POVI don’t know when exactly the unease grew more intense, but it was there now, gnawing at the edges of my thoughts every time I saw Isabelle. She was always around, always smiling that too-bright smile or lingering just a little too close to Richard. “Sarah, you’re overthinking it,” I muttered to myself for the tenth time that day. But even as I said it, I knew it wasn’t true. Something about Isabelle didn’t sit right with me. It wasn’t just the way she talked to Richard, though that was bad enough. It was the way she looked at him, like he was the only thing in the room that mattered. And Richard, being Richard, was completely oblivious. I spotted them in the kitchen one afternoon, Isabelle leaning against the counter, laughing at something he said. Her laugh was too loud, too eager, and the way she tilted her head made my stomach twist. I cleared my throat as I entered, making sure they noticed me. Isabelle straightened up, her smile faltering for just a second b

Chapter 112

Richard’s POVLiving with Sarah and Isabelle under one roof felt like walking a tightrope over a pit of fire. No matter what I said or did, someone was bound to get burned. Sarah’s mood had soured over the past few weeks, her usual warmth replaced by sharp glares and clipped words. Isabelle, on the other hand, wore this perpetual mask of sweetness that was starting to feel… off. “Richard,” Sarah said one morning, her voice low but edged. She was standing by the sink, her hand gripping the counter like it was the only thing keeping her upright. “Can we talk?” I can keep count of the “can we talk?” from her.I sighed, setting my coffee down. Here we go again. “Sure. What’s wrong now?” She flinched at my tone, but her expression hardened. “It’s Isabelle. I can’t do this anymore. She’s too… involved.” “Involved?” I echoed, frowning. “She’s just trying to be helpful.” Sarah’s laugh was bitter, humorless. “Helpful? Richard, she knows things about us that we never told her. She’s

Chapter 113

Sarah pov.I purposely did not bring up the photos that I saw in Isabelle’s belongings yet because I need to have just more than pictures to prove her wrong.At first, I convinced myself it was paranoia. After everything Richard and I had been through, wasn’t it natural to be a little on edge? But the coincidences kept piling up, each one more unsettling than the last.I sat on the edge of our bed that morning, staring at my reflection in the mirror. My hair looked dull, my skin paler than usual. I felt off—nauseous even—but I told myself it was the stress.“Sarah, you can’t keep ignoring this,” I muttered to myself, running a hand over my face. I hadn’t been sleeping well, and the tension in the house was eating away at me.When Richard appeared in the doorway, I forced a smile. “Morning,” I said, but my voice sounded weak even to me.“Morning,” he replied, leaning against the frame. “You look tired.”“Gee, thanks,” I said dryly.He chuckled softly and walked over to kiss my forehea

Chapter 114

Richard’s POVSitting across from Isabelle in the dimly lit living room, her words lingered in the air like smoke. I don’t want to lose you too.I didn’t know how to respond. It felt like she was pouring her heart out, but the timing was strange—too convenient, too calculated. I tried to brush it off. “You’re not losing anyone, Isabelle,” I said, my tone careful. “You’ve been through a lot, I get it. But Sarah and I are here for you.” Her eyes glistened as she smiled, that same sweet, innocent smile that had started to make my stomach churn. “Thank you, Richard. That means more to me than you’ll ever know.” I nodded, standing awkwardly. “Well, uh… it’s late. Maybe you should get some rest.” She stayed seated, her gaze holding mine a beat too long. “Goodnight, Richard,” she said softly. I turned and left, but the unease followed me upstairs. ***The next morning, I found Isabelle already in the kitchen. She was humming to herself, flipping pancakes like we were in some sort

Chapter 115

Sarah’s POVThe next morning, I sat at the kitchen table, staring at the stack of papers in front of me. My hands trembled as I picked up the tattered photo, the edges frayed like it had been carried around for years. The man and little girl in the picture didn’t look familiar at first, but the more I stared, the more the pieces clicked. The girl was Isabelle. That man—he had the same eyes as her. My stomach twisted. She’d never mentioned him, never brought up her family. Why was this photo just sitting here, out in the open like a breadcrumb she wanted me to follow again? I heard footsteps behind me and looked up to see her. Isabelle. She stood in the doorway, her head tilted slightly, a serene smile plastered on her face like she didn’t have a care in the world. “Good morning,” she said sweetly, her voice soft but somehow grating. I clenched my teeth, fighting to keep my voice steady. “Is this yours?” I held up the photo. Her smile faltered for just a second, but she reco

Chapter 116

Sarah's POV The next morning, I sat in my car outside the house, my hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that my knuckles turned white. The warmth of the sun streaming through the windshield felt out of place—mocking, almost. It was a new day, but the heaviness in my chest remained the same. I had gone to sleep in a hotel the previous night, you don't expect me to sleep in the same house as the guy who doesn't believe me, right?Of course, he had tried calling me, and messaging me. I had sent a message to not search for me and switched off my phone.You’re pregnant. The doctor’s words echoed in my mind, and for a moment, I felt a flutter of joy. A baby. Richard’s baby. But then the doubts and fears came rushing in. Could I bring a child into this mess? Into a home where I wasn’t even sure of my place anymore? I sighed, finally pulling myself out of the car. I had to face it. The house. Richard. Isabelle. All of it. The smell of fresh coffee hit me as I opened the doo

Chapter 117

Richard pov.The house was too quiet. The kind of quiet that made you second-guess your decisions. Sarah had left again in a whirlwind of anger yesterday, and even though I understood why, I still felt like I’d been blindsided. She’d accused Isabelle of… what? Stalking? Manipulating? It sounded ridiculous when I thought about it.Still, I couldn’t shake the memory of Sarah’s face before she stormed out. She’d looked hurt. Betrayed. And maybe, deep down, I knew I had something to do with that.Her message about not finding her grounded me from following her, but of course, I knew where she slept, the hotel, and the room and I paid extra security to look after her.I sighed and pushed my coffee mug aside. The sun streamed through the kitchen window, casting long shadows on the table. Isabelle walked in, humming softly. She looked like she didn’t have a care in the world.“Good morning,” she said with a cheerful smile, heading straight for the kettle.I forced a nod, trying to act no

Chapter 118

Sarah’s POV The sound of a car pulling into the driveway sent a rush of relief through me. I glanced out the window and saw Zoe stepping out, her oversized sunglasses and bright red scarf making her impossible to miss. She waved enthusiastically at me before marching toward the front door like she owned the place. When I opened the door, she didn’t waste a second. “Sarah!” she exclaimed, throwing her arms around me. “You look… exhausted. Are they stressing you out here? Should I throw hands?” I laughed despite myself. Zoe’s energy was like a much-needed breeze on a suffocatingly hot day. “You don’t know the half of it,” I said, stepping aside to let her in. She took a moment to look around, her nose wrinkling. “Nice place. But it feels like it’s got tension baked into the walls.” I shut the door, already feeling lighter with her around. “Come on, I’ll make us tea,” I said, leading her to the kitchen. Once we were seated, her vibrant personality filled the room. She didn’

Chapter 119

Sarah’s pov.The next day, Zoe and I spoke at length, she filled me with so many details and I really yearned to visit Mexico to see things for myself. My business was booming and everything was going fine. Well, the figures were high, I've always looked at the stats here but hearing Zoe give me the live news was comforting.It provided me with the sanity I needed. We sat in the living room watching a documentary but noone of us were really watching.Martins and Richard were in the study discussing men's issues. Zara was sprawled on the couch, scrolling through her phone with a casualness that only she could manage in a moment like this. Meanwhile, Isabelle sat in the armchair by the window, her fingers tracing the edge of her mug as if lost in thought.I had the photograph in my hand, the edges worn from how often I’d held it today. My chest tightened as I stared at it one last time before speaking.“Isabelle,” I started, my voice steady. “We need to talk.”She looked up, her expr

Chapter 120

Sarah’s POVI woke up to the smell of coffee brewing. For a moment, I thought Zara was up early, trying to impress me with breakfast. But as I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and padded down the stairs, the feeling of unease settled deep in my chest. The house was quiet—too quiet. When I walked into the kitchen, the scene stopped me in my tracks. Isabelle stood by the counter, her back to me, gripping a knife. She wasn’t chopping vegetables or anything remotely domestic. She just stood there, the knife gleaming under the morning light. “Good morning,” she said, her voice calm, almost cheerful. My heart thudded painfully in my chest. “Isabelle?” I took a cautious step forward. She turned slowly, and the smile on her face chilled me to the bone. “You’re up early. Couldn’t sleep?” My eyes flicked to the knife in her hand. “What are you doing?” Her smile faltered, and her grip on the knife tightened. “Thinking,” she said. “About everything. About what’s fair and what’s not.”
