All Chapters of My Billionaire Husband Wants Me Back : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Evelyn's POV Today is my fourth-year marriage anniversary with my husband, Leonard, and for once, I want to make it special. In the past, our anniversaries were often overlooked or brushed aside. Work always came first—his meetings, his business trips, or his late nights at the office. There was always something. And also because Leonard and I have been distant for a while now. Not that we quarrel or anything. I have plans laid out for today, including an exclusive dinner I've planned with the help of Maya. She encouraged me to do this. This time, I’m determined to break that pattern. I want to show Leonard how much he means to me, even if he hasn’t quite reciprocated those feelings the way I want him to over the years. I've known Leonard to be a man of few words, not knowing how to show affection properly. But this is also one of the reasons I fell in love with him.

Leonard gave it to me two years ago for my birthday—a rare thoughtful gift from a man who’s often too buried in his work to notice such things. The memory brings a faint smile to my lips. Even though my marriage with Leonard started with a simple arrangement, I still fell in love with him and I wish he can see just how much I love him.As I adjust my hair, my phone vibrates on the vanity

Evelyn's POVClara is standing at the center of my kitchen, humming a soft tune as she stirs something in a pot. Her blonde hair is pulled into a high ponytail. She's wearing a casual purple jogger and a black tank top and she moves with this ease and familiarity that makes my stomach twist. Like she belongs here. Like she owns this space.I clear my throat. “What are you doing here, Clara?”She doesn’t jump or look startled. Instead, she turns her head slowly, a small, almost triumphant smile curling her lips. “Oh, Evelyn. You’re home already. I didn't hear you come in. I was just making Leonard his favorite soup. You know how much he loves it.” The way she grins and the casual way says his name, the intimate tone she uses—it grates against my nerves. I take a deep breath, forcing myself to keep calm.“I wasn’t aware that Leonard asked you to cook for him. Or that you even had the right to walk into someone else’s kitchen uninvited. How did you get in?” I ask, folding my arms. The o
