The Wife He Never Wanted Chapter thirty
The police station lights felt too bright. They buzzed above us like angry insects. I sat in the hard plastic chair for what felt like hours, rocking Rose while Liam slept with his head on Sophia’s lap. Every time the door opened I looked up hoping for news about Damien. Every time it was just another officer or someone bringing coffee.My mind would not stop spinning.What if he was hurt?What if he was gone?What if this was the moment everything finally ended?A senior officer finally came back. He looked tired but kind. “We have teams searching the area. We found tire tracks leading into the woods. There was blood at the scene but no sign of your husband or the other men. We are treating this as a possible kidnapping. Do you have any idea who might want to take him?”I almost laughed at the question. Where did I even start?I told him everything I could. The threats. The partner. Elena. The old family business wars. He wrote it all down and promised they would follow every lead. B

The black car stayed glued to us like a shadow that refused to disappear. I gripped the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white. The highway stretched ahead like a long gray ribbon cutting through the mountains. Every mile felt like another step deeper into danger.Liam’s crying had turned into quiet sniffles in the back seat. “Mommy, is Daddy okay? Why are those cars chasing us?”I forced my voice to stay calm even though my heart was breaking. “Daddy is right behind us, baby. We are going to be safe soon. Just hold your sister’s hand for me.”Rose had stopped crying but her little face was red and frightened. She clutched her blanket like it could protect her from the world. I hated that my children had to experience this fear. They deserved peace. They deserved a normal life. Not this endless nightmare.Damien’s voice came through the phone again. He sounded tense but in control. “Do not slow down. The next exit has a police station. Stay on this road. I will keep them b

The next morning brought a different kind of fear. I woke up to the sound of my phone buzzing on the nightstand. I had left it on after the video call. A single message waited from an unknown number.Open the door. I left something for you.My stomach twisted. Sophia was already up checking the windows. I walked to the front door with my heart in my throat and opened it slowly.A small box sat on the welcome mat. No note. No sender. Just a plain brown box tied with string.I carried it inside and set it on the kitchen table. Sophia stood beside me. We both stared at it like it might explode.I cut the string and lifted the lid.Inside was a single photo. Me holding Rose at the park two days ago. Behind me in the background was a man in a black jacket watching us. On the back of the photo someone had written in red ink.You cannot hide forever. Bring the original files your father hid or your daughter will be next. Forty eight hours.Sophia covered her mouth. I felt the room spin. They

The cousin’s house smelled of fresh bread and old wood. I stood at the kitchen sink washing dishes just to keep my hands busy. Outside the window the town looked peaceful. Children laughed in the distance. Birds sang. Everything felt normal except my life.Sophia walked in carrying a grocery bag. “I bought some things for the kids. Also changed the plates on the car. No one should track us easily.”I nodded but my mind was far away. Every sound outside made my shoulders tense. Every car that passed by the house felt like a threat.Liam ran into the kitchen holding a drawing. “Look Mommy! It is all of us. Daddy is smiling big because he is coming soon right?”My heart squeezed. I knelt down and hugged him tight. “We will see. Right now it is just us having an adventure.”He seemed satisfied with that answer and ran off again. Rose toddled after him giggling. Their innocence was the only thing keeping me together.Later that afternoon while the kids napped I sat on the back porch with a

The beach house was quiet except for the sound of waves crashing outside. I sat on the porch wrapped in a blanket watching the sunset paint the sky red. Liam and Rose were inside playing with Sophia. For the first time in weeks I felt like I could breathe.But the peace did not last long.My phone rang. It was my father.“Lila” he said. His voice sounded tired and worried. “There is something you need to know. I just received documents from an old partner. Damien never stopped the business deals with the family that hurt us. He has been signing new contracts behind your back. Contracts that put the children in the inheritance line. If something happens to him they own everything.”I felt cold all over. “What are you saying Dad?”“He is still playing the game Lila. He never really walked away.”I hung up and stared at the ocean. Tears burned my eyes again. How many times could one man break me?Before I could process it another call came through. This time from an unknown number. I ans
