You've been a bit distant lately," I said carefully.Barbara frowned."No, Alexa. You've been the distant one."I blinked."I don't know what's gotten into you. Yes, I know you've been going through a lot lately."She folded her arms."But I'm your best friend. What happened to telling me when you're having a bad day? What happened to telling me everything that's bothering

ALEXA'S POV"Alexa..."The moment I heard my name, I froze.My eyes widened in shock."Jason?"Tears instantly filled my eyes.He was awake.Jason slowly opened his eyes and looked around, appearing confused. He tried to sit up, but I immediately stopped him."No, don't. You need to rest."I quickly signaled to Jennifer."Go get the doctor!"Jennifer's face lit up with relief. She squeezed Jason's hand before rushing out of the room."How long have I been asleep?" Jason asked weakly.I let out a shaky laugh through my tears."Asleep?" I sniffled. "You were in a coma for a week."His eyes widened slightly.A whole week.Unable to hold myself back any longer, I leaned forward and hugged him carefully.Jason groaned.I immediately pulled away."I'm sorry!"A small smile appeared on his face."It's okay."I wiped my tears, but they refused to stop falling.I had truly thought I was going to lose him.For an enti
ENTANGLED MARRIAGE CHAPTER FORTY SIX: THE SAFE
ALEXA’S POVHis condition had improved.Thankfully.I sat quietly beside Jason’s hospital bed, holding his warm hand in mine. The steady sound of the heart monitor filled the room, but it did little to calm the storm inside me.I lowered my head onto his hand and shut my eyes briefly.Everything felt exhausting.The fire.The lawsuit.The missing documents.The deaths.One disaster after another.A shaky breath escaped my lips as guilt settled heavily in my chest. Ever since I came into the Anderson family, chaos had followed. Sometimes, I wondered if their lives would have been better if I had never shown up.My fingers tightened slightly around Jason’s hand.Then my thoughts drifted back to that morning.The coffee.My headache.Josie.My brows furrowed.Why had she suddenly taken a leave that very day?Something about it no longer sat right with me.But then again… Josie had worked for the Andersons since she was a teenager.

ENTANGLED MARRIAGE CHAPTER FORTY FOUR: ALL HOPE LOST
LISA’S POV I nervously played with my fingers while staring at the floor. My parents stood in front of me, both waiting for an explanation. “So,” my mom said sternly, folding her arms, “there has to be a reason why you suddenly decided to leave Jace’s house.” I swallowed hard. What exactly was I supposed to say? That Jace caught me having sex and kicked me out? “Speak, Lisa,” my dad said firmly. I forced a pout. “Nothing happened. I just missed you guys.” They exchanged glances immediately. Mom clearly didn’t believe me. Without another word, she picked up her phone. “I’m calling Jace right now.” Panic flashed through me. “Don’t call him!” I snapped. “Then explain why you came home with all your luggage,” Dad said calmly. I hesitated. “I… did something.” Mom narrowed her eyes. “What exactly did you do?” I suddenly got irritated. Why were they making such a huge deal out of this? “It was just sex!” I blurted out. M

What’s going on?”“Mrs. Stones has severed ties with all our contractors… including Mr. Palmer from Lorenzo Enterprises.”My heart skipped.Mr. Palmer was one of Gresham’s Building’s biggest international partners.Patrick continued in a lower tone.“The company revenues are dropping drastically. She’s ruining everything.”Silence followed.I tightened my grip on the phone.“Patrick

“Erm…” I stammered.“You had no right to kiss me,” he said coldly.“I only wanted to prove to her that we’re really in love.”“Are we?” he asked sharply.I fell silent. Why was he even overreacting? It was just a kiss.“I warned you before, Alexa,” he added. “Don’t start building false hopes that w

The sun rose gently, announcing a new day…A day I never imagined for myself — the day I would marry someone I did not love.I opened the curtains and stared at my garden. My beautiful garden. I remembered cutting flowers for my parents back when things were simple and happy. My chest tightened.Ho

“Hey, Alexa.”Mika’s voice cut sharply through the room, her expression twisted into a deep frown.I noticed immediately how Jace and Mika’s eyes locked—too interested, too flirtatious for my comfort.“Oh… is this the rich guy you’re supposed to marry?” Mika asked with a smug little grin. “You’re l
