The Forgotten Wife's Comeback //Ch 75//
[Isabella Hayes]The familiar crunch of gravel beneath my tires faded as I cycled into the driveway. The beach house stood exactly as I’d left it that morning—a modern blend of stone, cedar, and floor-to-ceiling glass perched above the cliffs. Warm amber lights glowed through the windows, welcoming me home against the cool blues of the evening sea.I slipped my shoes off the moment I stepped inside, letting the silence wrap around me. The scent of salt drifted in through the partially opened sliding doors, mixing with the faint aroma of cedar and vanilla from the candles I’d burned the night before. Beyond the living room, waves crashed rhythmically against the rocks below, a sound so familiar it had become part of the house itself.My home didn’t overlook the busy stretch of beach where locals spread towels, and children laughed in the surf. Instead, it sat on the quieter side of the coastline, where jagged cliffs met restless water. There wasn’t much sand to see from here, but I’d n

[Ethan Blake]Isabella was in my left ear talking about everything she’d done from the moment she woke up.This wasn’t something we did all day; our phone calls happened in the evening, but I figured she was really excited and wanted to share how the meeting with the Realtor went.It made me happy, I’ll admit. Being married to Adrian had dimmed some of her light. I remember the months before Olivia returned. She wasn’t this chatty, at least not in public.These days, Isabella was a happy woman. She had deleted all social accounts, changed her number and email. She started fresh, and I loved this new version of her even more.“–and she loved the name. Just like you did. I had a thought while we were chatting. It was about you.”I tried not to chuckle. She was rambling endlessly, but the melody of her voice was something I obsessed over.I was listening intently, knowing she didn’t need me to say anything back. She liked to talk about things, and I was a good listener.The only reason I

[Isabella Hayes]Arella is a much nicer place to live in than Aurelia.It was a stunning beach city with lots of gorgeous sights, many sandy spots to surf and relax, and friendly locals who weren’t big on social media. They still used newspapers, lots of magazines, so publishing houses thrived here.I’d been here for just a few months, but I feel so fucking alive.Ethan bought me a beach house in a nice neighborhood. He stayed with me for an entire month, listening to me discuss in vivid detail my idea. He then told me to explore Arella and find several things I would need to kick my business off in a year.My excitement was… well immeasurable. I remember hugging him tightly and screaming because this dream that he had fed me was about to become my new reality.I haven’t seen him since that day. We talk every evening, text each other during the day, but we haven’t seen each other's face.I was loving Arella and all the wonderful people who had no clue about my past. The only person th

[Adrian Cole] [FOUR MONTHS LATER]I thought being divorced would bring me some sense of joy, but all I felt was a tightness in my chest each time somebody talked about Isabella.And talk they did. She was the subject of a terrible hate campaign for two months before a report came out saying she had just vanished.No one spotted her on the streets, malls, or grocery stores. Nobody could find her.I’ll admit I was worried. Then I recalled our last conversation. During mediation, she had brought up not wanting anything to do with my family, not even sharing the same city.So at first I thought, maybe she left Aurelia. Then the body of a badly beaten woman was found by the riverbank. There was no way to identify the body, and it was strange; she was wearing a custom gold ring with a specific engraving.One that I had personally chosen when I purchased said ring.‘You’ll always have a home in my heart—A.’I saw it on the news; reporters were asking people to confirm if this meant anything

[Isabella Hayes]“Tell me what you heard.”Naomi’s eyes always had this way of showing what she felt; then her face would follow suit. She wasn’t shy about showing how she felt, consciously or subconsciously.This time they were displaying her most common emotion, which was anger. Naomi was almost always angry or irritated. She wasn’t people-friendly, but she was still a nice person who learned to live for herself.I watched her intensely because I knew she was about to give me some bad news, and it was fueling her inner rage.Not to mention her earlier conversation already put her in a bad mood.“I bits and pieces. But the general idea is that Olivia sent them.”My mouth fell open, and my eyes widened to the size of saucers. “Olivia? Why? How did she know where we lived? Again, why?”Her shoulders rose then fell shortly as she shrugged off my questions. “How would I know? But I found it weird that she wanted to hurt you. Did you two get into a fight? Do you think she’s worried you mi

[Isabella Hayes]Just as I surrendered myself to whatever they had planned, footsteps thundered through the apartment.The voices outside my bedroom cut off."Shit.""Go!""The other one wasn't bluffing. We'll come back for her."Their words tumbled over one another before they bolted. Heavy footsteps pounded across the apartment, growing fainter with every second until the front door slammed shut.Then another set of footsteps chased after them.Silence.My lungs finally remembered how to breathe.A broken sob ripped out of me before I could stop it.They were gone.They were finally gone.My entire body shook so violently my teeth began to chatter. I curled in on myself, arms wrapping around my stomach as if I could somehow hold myself together.Who were they?Why me?What would have happened if whoever scared them away had arrived a minute later?The questions crashed into me one after another until I couldn't tell whether I was crying because I was alive or because I had come terr

[Isabella Hayes]“Mrs Cole? Mrs Cole, are you still there?”The assistant’s voice drowns out as something in my brain clicks into place, but that can’t be right. The call… the reason he was so happy… it couldn’t have been because of her.I never worried about Olivia, even though Adrian’s parents be

[Isabella Hayes]Later in the day, I met up with my best friend for a chat and some drinks to help me process my embarrassment.“You didn’t call him out?” Naomi shouted, alerting other people in the cafe to our table. She was acting like I’d committed a cardinal sin.“I…” I fumbled over my words, f

[Isabella Hayes]There’s a saying my best friend uses constantly.‘The public never forgets, so be careful what you do around them.’You stumble once on stage, they’ll bring it up every single chance they get. They love to humble people at the top.Cheat on your wealthy husband with a busboy? And w

[Isabella Hayes]I sat in the front row, in view of the cameras, feeling so many things at once. The cameramen seemed to love me because every now and then, a round of clicks would go off in my direction. Something like this would bother a normal person, someone who wasn’t used to being the center
