Michael’s phone continued to ring.

Everyone in the room watched him. Olivia demanded that he answer. He hesitated, then accepted the call and placed it on speaker.

Eleanor’s voice came through at once, asking where he was. Michael refused to say. She warned him that Olivia was in danger and that they should not discuss the past over the phone.

Olivia interrupted. She demanded to know why Eleanor had been involved in her life for so long. Eleanor refused to explain. Instead she said,

  • HE MARRIED ME FOR REVENGE    CHAPTER 39: THE BOX THEY WERE NEVER SUPPOSED TO OPEN

    Olivia kept staring at the photograph of Richard lying unconscious in the hospital bed. The message beneath it was clear and cold: "Open the box, and Richard dies."Michael told her they should forget the box. Olivia refused. She had spent her entire life losing people because others decided the truth was too dangerous for her to know. “I’m not choosing between my father and the truth,” she said. “I’m finding a way to save both.” Lucien supported her decision without trying to take control. For the first time Olivia realized he was willing to follow her lead rather than make the decisions for her. Lucien used his connections to investigate the person who sent the threat. They discovered that the photograph of Richard had been taken inside the hospital only minutes earlier. The person who took it had access to restricted areas, yet the message had been sent from a heavily encrypted account. The threat was clearly meant to frighten Olivia into abandoning the investigation. I

  • HE MARRIED ME FOR REVENGE    CHAPTER 38: WHAT HAPPENED THAT NIGHT

    Michael’s phone continued to ring. Everyone in the room watched him. Olivia demanded that he answer. He hesitated, then accepted the call and placed it on speaker. Eleanor’s voice came through at once, asking where he was. Michael refused to say. She warned him that Olivia was in danger and that they should not discuss the past over the phone. Olivia interrupted. She demanded to know why Eleanor had been involved in her life for so long. Eleanor refused to explain. Instead she said, “Ask Michael what he did the night Jonathan died.” The call ended. Olivia turned toward Michael. There was nowhere left for him to hide. Olivia demanded the truth. Michael admitted he had been with Jonathan on the night he died. Jonathan had discovered the identity of the person who betrayed their alliance and planned to expose the traitor. Michael was supposed to help him deliver the evidence to Richard. They were ambushed before they could leave. Michael escaped. Jonathan did not. O

  • HE MARRIED ME FOR REVENGE    CHAPTER 37: WHICH FATHER IS LYING?

    Olivia refused to waste another minute. She wanted to find Richard before whoever had taken him could hurt him. Lucien insisted on going with her. They arrived at an old private property connected to Olivia’s mother. The place stirred fragments of childhood memory moments of being brought there when she was too young to understand why. Richard may have taken her there long before she could form clear recollections. Lucien noticed signs of recent occupation. Someone was inside. They entered carefully. Richard’s belongings lay on a table, his medication, his hospital bracelet but there was no sign of him. Panic rose in Olivia’s chest. Then she heard his voice from another room. “Olivia.” She rushed toward it. Richard sat in a chair, weak but conscious. Michael stood nearby. Olivia demanded to know what was happening. Michael told her he had not kidnapped Richard. He had found him after someone removed him from the hospital. Richard confirmed the story. The person w

  • HE MARRIED ME FOR REVENGE    CHAPTER 36: THE VOICE THAT SHOULDN'T BE CALLING

    Olivia remained frozen after the call ended. Richard’s voice kept replaying in her mind: “Don’t trust him.”She called the hospital at once. The nurse confirmed that Richard was still unconscious and had not spoken to anyone. Terror settled over her. If Richard had not made the call, someone was using his phone. She told Lucien. He immediately suspected the caller wanted her to distrust Michael. Michael insisted he had nothing to do with the call. Olivia no longer knew whom to believe. Before they could question Michael further, they realized he had disappeared. His car remained nearby. His phone had been left behind. Olivia’s anger flared. The disappearance seemed to prove Richard had been right. Lucien reminded her that the call itself might have been designed to make her think exactly that. They decided to investigate before reaching any conclusion. Lucien examined Michael’s phone. Several calls from an unknown encrypted number had come in shortly before Michael vanis

  • HE MARRIED ME FOR REVENGE    CHAPTER 35: THE MAN WHO LEFT ME

    Olivia and Lucien stood inside the hidden room as the man stepped out of the darkness. She recognized his voice immediately, the same voice that had spoken to her on the phone. He confirmed that he was the man who had called her. His name, he said, was Michael. Olivia searched his face for something familiar. His eyes resembled hers. The resemblance made the possibility of him being her father feel real. She did not run into his arms. “Why did you leave me?” she asked. Michael’s expression broke. He told her he had never wanted to leave. He had been forced to disappear. Olivia refused to accept another excuse. Richard had raised her. Richard had stayed. Richard had protected her. Michael had not. Michael admitted she had every right to hate him. The people hunting him had threatened to kill her if he remained near her. He chose to disappear because he believed his absence would keep her alive. She asked why he never contacted her once she was older. Every attempt t

  • HE MARRIED ME FOR REVENGE    CHAPTER 34: THE HOUSE THAT REMEMBERED EVERYTHING

    Olivia arrived at the old Carter house with Lucien at her side. The moment she stepped through the gate, emotion rose sharp and unexpected. She had not returned since Richard moved her away as a child. The overgrown path, the darkened windows, the silence everything felt heavier than she remembered. Lucien noticed her discomfort but did not press her to speak. “I was told to come alone,” she said. “And I decided your life was more important than following instructions from a stranger,” he answered. Olivia was irritated, yet privately relieved she was not facing the house alone. They entered. The place appeared abandoned at first glance, but small details betrayed recent presence. A lamp had been replaced. Fresh footprints marked the hallway dust. Someone had been maintaining the property. Olivia found the room where her mother once kept her belongings. The diary was still there, but several pages had been torn out exactly the entries surrounding Olivia’s birth. Whoever
