Amelia’s POV

Rowan ripped himself out of his mother’s embrace. His chest was heaving like a man about to go to war.

But before he could even get a word out, she turned on her heel and left.

He stood frozen for half a second—then, with a deafening roar, he seized the nearest side table and hurled it across the empty hallway.

The wood shattered against the wall, splinters raining onto the marble floor. The sound echoed like gunfire.

I gave a startled gasp, then slowly inched toward him.

"Rowan, hey…" I whispered, reaching out to place my hand on his chest. His heart was racing beneath my palm. "It’s okay. They… they have every right not to like me."

His stormy eyes snapped to mine. "Every right?!" he snarled. "They have NO RIGHT to insult the most important woman in my life."

I froze. The words hit me harder than the furniture hitting the wall.

The most important woman in his life? Me?

"Rowan…" I shook my head, trying to ground myself. "They’re not wrong. Look at me. Sienna—she’s ever

    Rowan’s POVIt felt as if a weight had been lifted off my chest. Finally, the truth was out. Yet the air around the dining table still hung heavy. Thick with silence and the remnants of everything that had just exploded.My mother was the first to break it. She leaned back in her chair, her face a mask of composure, though I saw the cracks in her eyes. "Well," she said coolly. "That was… revealing."I let out a humorless laugh. "Revealing? That’s all you have to say?" My glare sharpened on her. "If you had trusted your own son in the first place, none of this would’ve had to happen. We could have spared Liam, spared Amelia, spared all of us this drama."Her lips thinned. "And how could I have trusted you, Rowan, when you kept all of this from me? This isn’t some minor oversight. You don’t just hide things like this from your family.""I was trying to protect Liam," I said, quieter but no less firm. "He’s innocent in all this. Whatever Sienna did, she’s still his mother. I didn’t wan

    Sienna’s POVEvangeline’s eyes were like daggers, pinning me in place. I could feel it—she believed her son over me. Panic rose like bile in my throat."Evangeline, I…" I hesitated, searching for any thread of control left. I had run out of angles to twist this story. My eyes flicked between her, Rowan, and Amelia. I couldn’t believe this humiliation was happening right in front of my ex’s little toy.I pressed trembling hands to my face, forcing my eyes to tear up."I’m so sorry," I whispered, shoulders shaking. "Rowan just… he never treated me right. I tried. I really tried."I took a deep, shuddering breath. "One night, at one of the galas I organized for Rowan’s company—to support his networking—one of his competitors approached me and…" I sniffled, forcing the image of a wounded wife. "He was so kind. So charming. He became a really good friend—""Friend?" Rowan’s voice cut through my sobs like a blade.I shot him a glare through my tears, my lips trembling. "Yes, friend. That’

    Amelia’s POVRowan’s face froze. The icy fury radiating off him made the air at the table tighten."Excuse me?" His voice was low, sharp, dangerous.Sienna tilted her chin. Her lips curved into a saccharine smile. "You heard me, Ro-ro."I cringed at the pet name, and Rowan’s eyes flickered with rage."Our marriage was arranged by our families in the first place," she went on, "We both know it was strategic, and… it worked. Your mother and I have been talking, and we both agree—it just makes sense to reunite."Rowan barked out a bitter laugh. "This is all very funny, Sienna. But unless the calendar switched to April first without me noticing, I’m not laughing."He shoved his chair back with a screech. "Amelia and I should get going now."I rose slowly, my heart pounding. But before I could fully stand, Evangeline’s voice cracked through the room like a whip. "Sit. Down."The force in her tone made me falter, caught in an awkward half-squat. Rowan’s eyes narrowed at her, his jaw flexing

  • After My Wedding Was Stolen, I Married Ex's Uncle   Chapter 85 - Invisible Guest

    Amelia’s POVRowan and I spent every spare minute of the next days in his sex room. It was as if he’d unlocked a hidden door inside me, showing me a world of pleasure I hadn’t even imagined, let alone lived.By the time I stumbled into the office each morning at Lancaster headquarters, my body was still thrumming from the night before. My clients needed me sharp, present, dependable—and I tried. God, I tried. But every spreadsheet, every phone call, every polished report blurred into flashes of rope against my skin, his low commands in my ear.And whenever Rowan came to "check on me" in the office, the game started all over again.His knock would sound, I’d glance up, and there he’d be—tall, self-assured, eyes glittering with the kind of hunger that set my pulse sprinting. Sometimes he only stood there, smirking, as if daring me to think of the night before. But more often, he didn’t give me a choice.He’d shut the door with a quiet click, cross the room in two strides, and sudden

  • After My Wedding Was Stolen, I Married Ex's Uncle   Chapter 84 - The Sex Room

    "What kind of man do you take me for?" Rowan said, his eyes shining with amusement and something much, much darker. "Of course I have a sex room."My pulse thundered with shock and anticipation. But I couldn't help the insecurity curling sharp and tight in my stomach. After just seeing all those photos in Sienna’s room…Before I could stop myself, the words left my mouth: "How many women have you taken here? Is this where you and Sienna—""Amelia." Rowan lifted a hand. "Don’t."He closed the distance between us until his breath brushed my forehead, forcing me to look up at his towering figure."This," he said slowly, "used to be my man cave. Where I came to escape from Sienna and her endless galas, her shallow friends, her champagne-soaked world."A small, breathy "Oh…" escaped me.His mouth curled into the faintest smirk. "But when I decided you should live here… this idea hit me. So I had this room redone. For you. And, well," His tone dipped to a teasing murmur, "a little for me

    Amelia’s POVI pulled into the ridiculously massive garage, the engine of the ridiculously expensive Porsche humming into silence. Victoria’s voice still echoed in my head like poison.‘Sugar daddy.’I gripped the wheel tighter. God, was that what we looked like to everyone else? Some shallow, transactional arrangement? Even his mother thought so. Even Sienna.I blew out a shaky breath and climbed out.The villa loomed before me—silent, intimidating, and… empty. Rowan was still at work.Since I had nothing else to do, and my mind was too restless to sit still, I decided to wander. Explore. After all, I’d barely seen a quarter of this place.The hallways seemed endless, each turn revealing something more extravagant than the last. An indoor gym the size of a professional studio. A sauna complex that smelled faintly of cedar. A cinema room with seats that looked softer than my own bed.I lost track of time, drifting through his world like a ghost. My footsteps echoed faintly, as thoug
