Blind No More: Seeing My Wife's Double Life Chapter 22
Ellie stared straight into my eyes, as though wrestling with a deep internal struggle.She took a deep breath and spoke up. "Zander, I actually have feelings for you. I've liked you ever since the day you stood up for me back in college, but I never dared to reach out to you."So when you introduced me as your girlfriend earlier, I was truly happy. Because in those brief moments, I could hold your hand out in the open and call you mine."My eyes widened in complete disbelief.To be honest, it wasn't as if the thought had never crossed my mind that Ellie might harbor feelings for me, but I always dismissed it as wishful thinking.It wasn't just because she kept her distance so impeccably. It was also because she knew everything about my past—that I was divorced, that I had been blind, and that I had dragged myself through the mud of a terrible relationship.Even though I seemed carefree on the outside, I was already hollow inside.Could someone like me really be loved again?As

Mya's eyes darted frantically back and forth between Ellie and me."Zander, who is she? What is she to you?" she asked.After a brief pause, I reached out and took Ellie's hand in mine. "She's my girlfriend. Just give up, Mya."I felt Ellie's body go rigid for a fraction of a second, but she caught on almost instantly. She tightened her grip and interlaced her fingers through mine.Mya stared at us, her eyes wide with complete disbelief. "That's not true. Zander, you couldn't possibly fall in love with someone else."A cold sneer escaped my lips as I shot her a sharp look."Why not? You could cheat on me with Alfred in the middle of our marriage, but I'm not allowed to fall in love after our divorce? I've never heard of such ridiculous logic."I was blind enough to fall for you and give you endless opportunities to lie to and hurt me. But those days are over. Mya, you don't need to tell me what you did to Alfred and Selena. None of it matters to me anymore because you don't matt

Over the following weeks, my days consisted of nothing more than soaking in the unconditional love of my parents and Alena and heading to the hospital for my routine checkups. I didn't have to worry about a single thing.Alena mentioned she had already poached a massive chunk of Murray Corp's primary clients, but she had no intention of slowing down. Her ultimate goal was to acquire Murray Corp, force Mya out, and destroy the career she was most proud of.Honestly, hearing all this barely stirred a ripple in me anymore.Perhaps having my family and friends by my side filled my life with so much light that love and hatred both faded into the background. Even the grand revenge against Mya began to feel secondary.Still, since Alena was so determined to see it through, I was content to let her take the lead.Today, my checkup with Ellie finished right around lunchtime. A newly opened restaurant nearby was buzzing with hype, so we decided to grab a bite together.Through our recent i

After Alena gave Dr. Hooper a quick summary of my condition, she excused herself and shut the door to give us a private space for the checkup.Dr. Hooper reached down to pick up a few diagnostic tools. My eyes stayed locked on her the entire time. An undeniable feeling of familiarity washed over me.A memory suddenly clicked into place, and I blurted out, "Ellie Hooper?"Having likely reviewed my medical chart beforehand, Ellie hadn't shown much reaction when I first walked in.But hearing me call her name caused her to freeze instantly. A surge of raw emotion rippled through her eyes, and her voice stumbled as she spoke. "Y-You still remember me?"Of course I remembered Ellie.During my freshman year, she was a senior at the top of her class. With her wealthy background and striking beauty, she was the dream woman for half the guys on campus.Yet she had a cool, distant personality and rarely interacted with men. Once, while playing truth or dare at a bar with my roommates, the

I never expected Alena's first words after hearing my plan to be, "Zander, when you chose to stay in Hartwell back then, Mom and Dad had already transferred all the shares of that subsidiary to your name. You've been the primary shareholder all along."Before I could even process the shock, she added, "If I'd known that 100 million dollars was to get back at Mya, I would've caught the first flight to Hartwell to back you up. Zander, you've carried this heavy load all by yourself for too long. Now that you're home, just rest."Whether it's the parent company or the subsidiary, they belong to our family, and that means they're yours. From here on out, I'll dismantle Murray Corp in your name. I'm going to make Mya pay back every single ounce of pain she inflicted on you."A swell of emotion tightened in my chest. But this was my personal battle, and Alena was already running herself ragged managing the family business."Alena, but—""No buts," she interrupted and steered me back towa

Zander's POVOver in Arleston, before stepping off the plane, I snapped my Hartwell SIM card in half and tossed it.I was planning to hunt down a payphone outside the terminal to call Alena, but the moment I walked into the arrivals hall, I caught sight of Alena and my parents waiting in the crowd. They were holding a ridiculously over-the-top sign that read, "Welcome home, Zander!"Alena jogged over, grabbed my suitcase, and guided me toward Mom and Dad. They hadn't just brought a sign. They were holding a massive bouquet of fresh flowers.I greeted them with a smile. "Dad, Mom, Alena, sorry for making you all worry about me."Mom looked me up and down, her eyes brimming with tears. "Zander, why are you so thin? You look so pale. Did someone hurt you?"Having just broken out of the psychiatric ward, I had thrown on fresh clothes and rushed straight onto the flight. I slept on the plane and skipped every meal, leaving me exhausted.Not wanting them to worry, I brushed it off. "N
