LOST TILL FOUND Chapter 1 BROKEN 💔

I was so tired after a long day in school just for me to walk home and find Martha and Francis screaming at each other, my parents are just the worst, I look past them without even offering a hello and go straight to my room upstairs. I plan on taking a brief nap before going down for some food but I end up sleeping till dinner, while half asleep I hear mom walking into my room ,I know it's her because of that ridiculous slippers she likes wearing indoors that makes so much noise than she realizes .

She sits by my bed and taps me gently on the shoulder when I don't stir she takes a deep breath and then taps me again, this time I gently sit up and ask her whats wrong,she says it to me directly no beating around the bush."your dad and I are getting a divorce, as you know things haven't been great between us and I don't want you guys growing up and thinking this is how things are between couples so it's better we get a divorce ". I look at her wanting to ask who brought up the Idea but I already know who,so I just smile and tell her it's okay that we'll be fine ,she says thank you sweetheart and walks out.

When she's gone I sit down on my bed and laugh for about 30seconds ,then I stop, wondering why I was laughing in the first place

I look out my window and stare into the night then I hear something calling my name vera it was so faint I thought I imagined it but it called again ,I was about to ask who's there but before I could mom called me from down stairs "sweetheart come down for dinner and bring pete along" .I quickly jump down from my bed ignoring my imagination and going to find my cute little brother who I hadn't seen the whole day.I walk into his room ,pete mom said it's time for dinner where are you ,I don't see him in the bathroom or under the bed I start to panic but thats when I hear his little sobs in the closet ,I open it and join him in silence, I ask whats wrong and he says "I don't want mom and dad to split up" I tell him it's okay that we'll be fine ,he hugs me and I just can't help but cry.

We go down for dinner and mum and dad are already at table dad's already eating while mom is waiting for us ,when we sit down she says why did we take so long ,I say nothing and pete keeps quiet to,I could tell she knew by the look on her face that we'd been crying, so she said we should say grace and I did then we ate in complete silence. After dinner I went to my room after making sure pete got ready for bed and was tucked in ,he tells me he's a big boy but to me 6yrs is still a baby.I go through my routine before bed then I go on my knees to pray as mom taught me,she says prayer makes everything easier "Talk to God "she said so here i am talking to him. I go through the normal procedures i was taught thanks,mercy,then I pray for what I want.Talking to God in prayer always gave me peace but now I don't feel it anymore, I feel restless. I lie down after my little prayer and I close my eyes.

I hear my alarm blaring telling me it's time to wake up ,it's so annoying it makes me wonder why I even set it up in the first place, I wake up lazily and decide today's going to be my happy day,I'm going to pretend my life is perfect. I take a shower put on the nicest dress I have for school, put a little bit of makeup take my backpack and head downstairs for breakfast ,I don't need to worry about pete because mom handles him in the mornings. I greet everyone with a bright smile, mom looks happy when she sees me while dad looks shocked I'm smiling at him and he doesn't know how to respond .So I give pete a kiss on his cheek pick up an apple and leave mom says I should atleast have one pancake I say I'm good, I blow her a kiss and leave.

At school I meet Cindy, she's my BFF since kindergarten and I just love her she's the total opposite of my moody self and she's so pretty i wonder how we even became friends don't get me wrong I'm not ugly I'm just not as bubbly and confident as she is.Hey I say when she meets me and pulls me into a tight hug we walk hand in hand to class,it's our last year of high school so she wants us to do everything together because we're both applying to different colleges. We take our seats and the teacher goes on and on about something but I don't hear anything because I'm staring out the window at lost in thoughts, when I hear the voice say my name vera ,I listen carefully trying to find out if the voice is familiar, but I jolt suddenly when the teacher yells "vera damore can you tell us what's so intriguing out side "and the whole class starts laughing and thats when I realize this window faces the basketball court and some students are having try outs ,Cindy looks at me with amusement in her eyes and I just know I would never hear the end of it.During lunch time ,I tell Cindy I'll be back and go to the restroom, when I'm done ,I look at the mirror and I see someone behind me I turn and he's gone I look at the mirror again and he's there smiling at me ,I do what anyone would do I scream and i run.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

Rising From Wreckage: Starfall's Epic Comeback

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.
