Dead to My husband Chapter 31
Mia pov Sophia laughed at his question. “Come on, Adrian. I can't have friends again?”Adrian folded his arms. “Yes, you can. But you hugged each other like you've been friends for ages.”Sophia laughed again, clearly amused by his suspicion. “And what's wrong with that? Must I explain every friendship I have?”He shook his head. “I'm just asking.”“Well, there's nothing strange about having a maid friend.”I watched their exchange quietly. Adrian had known Sophia through Elena, so I understood why seeing her with me had confused him. What he couldn't understand was how a maid in his house had become friends with someone he already knew.Unfortunately, I couldn't exactly explain that our friendship had existed long before I started working in his mansion.Sophia suddenly remembered something. “By the way, is Vivian around? She called me.”Adrian pointed toward the staircase. “She should be upstairs.”“Alright. Thanks.” Sophia turned to me. “Bye, Mia. I'll see you later.”“Okay. Take

I was cleaning the living room when Xavier walked into the mansion. He stopped as soon as he saw me, looking genuinely surprised. “Mia? What are you still doing here?”I turned toward him with a smile. “Good morning to you too, Sir.”He ignored my greeting and glanced toward the entrance as if expecting to find my bags waiting there.“Didn't you have a job offer to consider? I thought you would have left by now.”“I rejected it.”His eyebrows rose. “You rejected the offer?”“Yes.”“Why?” He stepped closer, studying my face. “I thought you wanted the job.”“I did, but Adrian offered me something better.”Xavier stared at me. “Adrian offered you something better?”I nodded, struggling to keep a straight face.“What exactly did he offer you?”I picked up my cleaning cloth and smiled mischievously. “That's a secret between me and Adrian.”“Mia, don't start with me.”I laughed and walked away before he could ask another question. “Have a lovely day, sir!”He watched me disappear down the

Vivian stormed upstairs, unable to contain her anger. She couldn't believe Adrian had stood in front of everyone and called Mia his wife. The woman was a maid who had barely been in the house long enough to understand the family, and he had done it in front of her without the slightest hesitation. She reached the upper floor and headed straight for her room, but before she could enter, she heard footsteps behind her. "Vivian" she stopped and turned. Adrian was approaching, his expression unreasonable. "What?"she snapped. "We need to talk." "About what? your sudden marriage to a maid?" "Keep your voice down." Vivian let out a bitter laugh."Now you're worried about people hearing us? You didn't seem concerned about that downstairs when you announced to everyone that Mia was your wife." Adrian glanced toward the corridor before looking back at her. "Not here." He walked past her toward their room. Vivian hesitated. then went after him. The moment they entered, she s

The previous night, after Adrian finished talking to me, he returned to his study room. I waited until the mansion was quiet before leaving my room. I couldn't afford to leave this house. I was too close to finding what I had come for, and accepting Jacob's offer would ruin everything. I needed Adrian's help, but asking for it directly would raise too many questions. So I decided to lie. When I reached his study, I knocked twice. “Come in.” Adrian sat behind his desk, reading through a file. He glanced up as I entered. “What is it, Mia?” “I need to tell you something important.” He put the file down. “I'm listening.” I closed the door and walked closer. “Charles Sterling sent me here.” His expression changed. “Who?” "Charles Sterling, Elena's uncle.” Adrian's eyes narrowed. “I know who Charles is. What does he have to do with you?” “He sent me to retrieve some confidential business records and the legal documents concerning the Sterling company and this mansion.” Adrian r

The next morning, I came downstairs and found everyone seated in the sitting room. Adrian sat on the sofa with a cup of coffee in his hand. Vivian was beside him, looking through her phone, while Jacob sat opposite them with a folder resting on his lap.The moment I appeared, Jacob smiled. “Good morning, Mia. I hope you've thought about my offer.”I approached them, trying to ignore Adrian's curious gaze. “Yes, sir. I have.”“And what's your decision?”I glanced briefly at Adrian before turning back to Jacob. “I'm sorry, but I can't accept the offer.”His smile faded. “May I ask why?”“Because my husband doesn't want me to accept it.”The words had barely left my mouth when Vivian looked up. “Your husband?”I turned toward her. She stared at me in disbelief before letting out a short laugh. “I'm sorry, but did you just say your husband? Since when have you been married?”I said nothing.Vivian put her phone down. “I've known you for some time now, Mia, and I cannot remember you ever me

Mia POV I had barely left the kitchen when Adrian saw me. He stood near the staircase with his phone pressed to his ear. The moment his eyes landed on me, his attention shifted. He ended the call and motioned for me to stop.“Mia.” I turned around. “Yes, sir?” “Where are you going?”“To my room.”He studied my face for a moment. “You look distracted.” “I'm just tired.” It wasn't entirely a lie. I was tired of pretending, tired of hiding, and tired of living under the same roof as the man who had once been my husband.“Have you made your decision about Jacob's offer?” he asked.I tightened my fingers around the edge of my apron. “Yes, sir. I've decided to accept it.” His expression immediately hardened. “Then you understand what that means.” “Yes. I would have to leave this house if I accepted the job.” “Good. At least you know.” I lowered my gaze to hide my irritation. Listening had never been my problem. It was obeying him that had become increasingly difficult. I had spent
