Billionaire's Dead Wife Returns As His Contract Bride Chapter 30
Abel’S POVThe gates of the Lamb estate swung open slowly, the iron bars groaning in the quiet night.The mansion loomed ahead as Abel drove up the winding driveway, a massive beast of stone and glass sitting dark against the sky. A place that never really felt like home.He parked the car and killed the engine, his hands still buzzing with adrenaline from his meeting with Vance a few hours ago.He checked his phone. It was 2:15 AM.Sam was probably sleeping by now. Abel had dropped him off at his place about half an hour ago and then came home himself. Vance was probably working, running some digital tracking algorithms to find the car owner or where that was parked right now.His instruction was for Abel to go home and get some rest while he handled the rest of the work.rest? As if he could sleep knowing his dead wife might be alive somewhere.Abel walked up the front steps and unlocked the front door. The foyer was silent, the marble floors gleaming in the moonlight filtering thro

Abel’S POVThe windshield wipers slashed back and forth, fighting a losing battle against the drizzle that had started up again.Inside the car, the air was thick enough to choke on.Abel had been talking for twenty minutes straight, telling Sam everything.About the way Olivia walked around the rug the first day she came to the manor. The way she hummed a French lullaby that Helen used to sing. He told him in full detail about the panic attack at the gala, not just the psychotic break everyone else saw.And finally, he told him about the deceased doctor that allegedly has his signature signed all over her medicals in Chicago.Sam hadn't said a word. He just sat there, staring out into the dark streets of Chicago through his window, his jaw working as he chewed his gum."Say something," Abel said, his grip on the steering wheel tightening.Sam let out a long breath, his gaze never leaving his window."You know how this sounds, right?" Sam asked quietly. "It just sounds like grief, Abe

Abel’S POVThe restaurant was quiet. A little too quiet.Beverly Royale was the kind of place where people whispered instead of talked. The only sounds were the soft clinking of silver forks against plates, and the low hum of music from the speakers on the wall. It was expensive, exclusive, and completely lifeless.Abel sat in the same private section where he always sat near the window. Outside, the streets were dark and wet with rain. Inside, the candlelight on the table flickering on the face of the woman sitting across from him.Isabella.She was dressed in a deep emerald green that matched her eyes, her blonde falling in a perfect curtain around her shoulders with her back perfectly straight, and her hands folded gracefully in her lap. She was beautiful, there was no denying that. She was the perfect picture of a CEO’s wife."The truffle risotto is excellent," Isabella said softly. She took a tiny bite, barely opening her mouth. "You really should try it, Abel."Abel looked down

Abel’S POVThe elevator ride up to the top floor felt different this time. Usually, the steel box felt like a cage lifting Abel back to his prison. But now, the walls didn't feel like the were closing around himDo whatever you want.Arthur’s words were still ringing in his ears when the doors slid open.He stepped into the outer office where his Secretary, Sarah, was typing furiously on her keyboard. She looked up, her eyes wide behind her glasses. She had probably heard the rumors. In a building like this, gossip traveled faster than light, and she likely thought he was coming back to pack up his things."Mr. Lamb!" she gasped, standing up so quickly her chair rolled back. "I… we heard shouting. Is everything…?" She trailed off, too afraid to ask if he had been fired.Abel stopped at her desk, unbuttoned his suit jacket. "Everything is fine, Sarah," he said. "The board had a spirited debate, that’s all.” He gave her a small, reassuring nod.“I’m not going anywhere."Sarah let out a b

Abel’S POVThe piece of paper in Abel's pocket felt heavier than a brick.He walked down the long corridor of the executive wing, the silence pressing against his ears. Ten minutes ago, this hallway had been filled with the noise of board members murmuring and hissing. Now, it was just him and the soft hum of the air conditioning.He reached the end of the hall. The double doors of the Chairman’s office loomed in front of him. They were old-fashioned, made of solid oak, a stark contrast to the glass and steel that made up the rest of the building.Arthur Sterling.He was the last relic of Abel's father’s era. A man who believed in handshakes over contracts and silence over shouting.Abel took a deep breath, adjusting his tie. Why the secrecy? Why slide a note across the table like a high school student passing a message in class? He could have just emailed him. Or phoned his office.But Arthur never did things the easy way did he?Abel pushed the heavy door open and stepped inside.Th

Maria’S POVThe hallway outside the boardroom was lined with modern art, the kind you would find in museums and art galleries. Maria hated it. Just like she hated the meeting they had just finished.She walked down the corridor, her heels clicking hard against the marble floor.Board members were still moving about near the elevators. One of the board members, George, was whispering to the head of Marketing. They stopped talking immediately when they saw her coming, straightened their ties and offered her tight, nervous smiles."Mrs. Lamb," George said, nodding his head. "Intense meeting today."Maria didn't stop walking, not bothering to turn her head fully as she walked past him. She just gave him a smile that made sure it didn't reach her eyes."A fight for change is always intense, George," she said smoothly. "But also, always necessary."She breezed past them, keeping her back straight and her chin high. She was the picture of calm. A perfect supportive stepmother and concerned
