Don’t Beg for Love 75. Her Husband
Annalise’s POV The taxi drove through towering wrought-iron gates that opened onto an estate unlike any I had seen before.A broad stone driveway curved gracefully through immaculate gardens filled with date palms, jasmine, and blooming bougainvillea. Marble lanterns lined both sides of the path, their intricate carvings casting delicate patterns across the ground even beneath the afternoon sun. In the distance stood an enormous mansion, its creamy sandstone walls glowing warmly beneath the Egyptian sky.The architecture blended traditional Arabian elegance with modern luxury.Towering arches framed the entrance. Delicate geometric carvings decorated the walls, while vast floor-to-ceiling windows reflected the gardens surrounding the estate. Domed rooftops rose behind the main building, and slender palm trees swayed gently in the warm breeze, softening the grandeur of the place.The taxi came to a stop before a circular courtyard.At its center, a magnificent marble fountain sent cr
Don’t Beg for Love 74. Checked Out
Andrew’s POVThe Next MorningI checked my wristwatch again.8:17 a.m.My gaze drifted, almost instinctively, to the suite beside mine.Its door remained closed.For what felt like the hundredth time that morning, I resisted the ridiculous impulse to walk over, unlock the door myself, and confirm she was still inside.She wasn’t a prisoner.Nor was she obligated to remain where I wanted her.Yet…My eyes kept returning there.A housekeeping attendant pushed her cleaning trolley down the hallway.She stopped before the adjacent suite and swiped a master keycard.The door clicked open.I frowned.Walking over, I asked in German, “Where’s the guest staying here?”The attendant looked up politely.“Oh.” She smiled apologetically. “She checked out late last night, Sir.”My expression hardened.“I see.”She bowed slightly before entering the room.I remained standing in the hallway.So…She had run.From me.A quiet scoff escaped me.How long exactly did she intend to keep running?I took o
Don’t Beg for Love 73. Heartless
Everything inside me went still, my fists clenching involuntarily.For one dangerous second, I wanted to look up.To meet his eyes.To ask him what kind of game he thought he was playing.It took every ounce of self-control I possessed to remain where I was, my gaze fixed on the glowing screen still displaying the translation as though the words meant nothing to me.I forced my fingers to loosen.Then I breathed once.Twice.I silently handed the phone back to Linda, behaving as though I had never seen the translation.As though I hadn’t just heard the most absurd sentence Andrew Hale had ever uttered.My future bride?What a ridiculous joke.…The rest of the evening unfolded in a way that only confirmed my suspicions.Mr. Hoffmann’s attitude toward me changed completely.The guarded businessman who had carefully weighed every condition only hours ago suddenly became unusually accommodating.After dinner, he personally led Linda and me through different wings of the estate.The mansi
Don’t Beg for Love 72. His Future Bride
Linda sucked in a sharp breath beside me.She leaned closer until only I could hear her. “Isn’t that Andrew Hale?”I didn’t answer.If it had only been his face… If it had only been the impossible resemblance,Perhaps I could have convinced myself fate had created another man who looked exactly like him.But… He was looking directly at me. Not with curiosity. Not with surprise.With recognition. With the kind of familiarity that only existed between two people who had once known each other far too well.My fingers tightened around the knife and fork in my hands.‘Don’t react.’I forced my breathing to remain even.What was he doing here? Was this really another coincidence?No.I no longer believed in coincidences where Andrew Hale was concerned. Which only left one question.What exactly was he planning now?“Mr. Hale!” Mr. Hoffmann’s face lit up as though he’d just welcomed royalty into his home. “I never imagined you would personally visit my residence.”He laughed heartily, almost
Don’t Beg for Love 71. The Dinner
An Hour Later.The car slowed before a pair of towering wrought-iron gates.They swung open soundlessly.Our chauffeur drove through, following a long cobblestone driveway lined with perfectly sculpted hedges and ancient oak trees whose branches arched overhead like a natural cathedral. Soft golden lamps illuminated the path, their warm glow dancing across marble fountains and carefully tended flower gardens.Then the mansion came into full view.I found myself sitting a little straighter.The estate looked as though it had been lifted straight out of another century.It was an imposing German manor, built from pale sandstone with steep slate roofs, ornate gables, and tall arched windows framed by intricate carvings. Ivy climbed parts of the ancient walls, adding a timeless charm rather than neglect. Balconies with black wrought-iron railings overlooked expansive terraces, while warm lights spilling from every window softened the grandeur of the historic architecture.It wasn’t flas
Don’t Beg for Love 70. Inexplicable
Annalise’s POVGermany was beautiful.After checking into my suite, I took a quick shower to wash away the fatigue of the long flight. By the time I stepped onto the balcony, my damp hair had begun to dry beneath the gentle evening breeze.Several floors below, the city stretched into the distance with effortless elegance.Rows of historic buildings stood shoulder to shoulder with sleek glass towers, neither overshadowing the other. The Main River wound through Frankfurt like a ribbon of silver, reflecting the fading hues of the sky as sightseeing boats glided lazily across its surface. Tree-lined boulevards softened the city’s steel and concrete, while church spires pierced the skyline between modern skyscrapers. People strolled along the riverside promenades, cyclists passed without haste, and cafés spilled onto sidewalks.The city breathed at its own measured pace; Calm. Orderly. Unhurried.I rested both hands on the cool balcony railing and closed my eyes for a brief moment.Th

My fingers instinctively tightened around the phone, hearing Tania’s words.I didn't hear her wrong, did I?“I checked your marriage certificate, Anna. It was fake!” Tania groaned. “Don’t tell me the scumbag tricked you!”Tricked me…Aiden himself asked me to marry him.Three years ago, he’d knocke

The next day, I discharged myself from the hospital.Standing across the bustling street outside the hospital’s skyscraper, my eyes squinted at the burning sun.For thirty minutes, not a single taxi stopped.Then, suddenly, a convoy of black luxury cars swept onto the street, instantly drawing ever
Don’t Beg for Love 1. The Twentieth Time He Chose Her
“We are sorry, Miss. We tried our best, but the fetus was gone. We had to evacuate it to prevent damage to your womb.”The word “it” echoed through my mind, cutting through my last strand of hope.Yet, the doctor’s words, along with the beeping of the heart’s monitor and every noise inside the hosp
