Chapter 6
I turned to Eleanor, desperate. “Please–1 need a proper urn for Noah
She curled her lip. “Can’t even hold a damu un right. The bottle’s fine. J’an at sasting another
that ungrateful brat. Hurry up my dub’s waiting”
Leon shoved me aside, his friends scooping Road’s ashes into the flity Buttle and tong the ge
like trash.
The workers sealed it immediately.
My nails dug into my palms until they bled. How could they treat my babby like tradi
I went looking for Hudson and only to find them–right in from of West’s memorial porcar
Valeria was straddling him on a chair, her dress hiked up, Hudson’s hands all over her
“Baby… Leon needs a sibling. Let me give you another child”
Hudson’s breath was ragged.
“Val.. you’ve risked so much already–hiding Leon all these years from your husband I caft a more
And this is Noah’s-”
Valeria’s hand slid lower, her voice pure seduction. “For you? I’d sacrifice anything. He’s never home anyway, he won’t know.”
“Shhhh…” Valeria’s hands worked at his dick “Besides doesn’t the danger excite you? Right here? You’re
so tense… let mama take care of you…*
Hudson’s control snapped. He yanked her down into a brutal kiss, hands shoring up her dress while she

My hands shook as I recorded their betrayal before fleeing to Noah’s grave.
My whole body trembled. Hudson, our son’s photo was right above you while you’re… God, I couldn’t stop

The crowd had dispersed. No one cared about me or my baby anymore.
I knelt by Noah’s grave, placing white roses and a small teddy bear among the memorial flowers.
Tears fell silently as I realized our fifteen–year marriage had been nothing but a cruel joke.

A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Box
Chapter 6
Suddenly something knocked the vase over, hot water splashing my hands. I jerked back with a gasp.
Valería appeared, looking triumphant.
“Must have been quite a show, Reese–watching Hudson and me going at it right in front of your dead kid’s photo. Sweet little Noah… all those flowers and teddy bears won’t bring him back.”
Her voice turned vicious:
“You know what? If you’d stayed barren, I wouldn’t have bothered with you at all.”
“But you finally had Noah, didn’t you? You give Hudson a kid. Well, guess what? Nobody – and I mean nobody – threatens my son’s inheritance.”
“The Montclair fortune belongs to us. Hudson loves me most- he even killed your kid to prove it. If I were you, I’d do us all a favor and jump off a bridge.”
I finally snapped, raising my hand – but Valeria was already falling toward the stone steps.
Before I could move, strong hands slammed me down, catching her.
“What the fuck is wrong with you, Reese Roberts? Touch her again and I’ll destroy you!”
