His knuckles rapped against the table. A dull thud."A piece of paper. Legal recognition. That's supposed to settle it?""I'm not dead yet.

His Dad Calls Me Baby Chapter 160: Legal Marriage, The Ultimate Power Move!
Gerald paused.His knuckles rapped against the table. A dull thud."A piece of paper. Legal recognition. That's supposed to settle it?""I'm not dead yet. This family doesn't answer to you alone.""A wife is chosen for virtue. For the union of two houses.""You're running Knight Group now. You should know better. Know when to compromise.""Throwing away everything for a moment of impulse. Gambling the company's future on—this."His voice dropped. The last two words landed light. But they hit hard."Is she worth it?"The question hung in the air. Aimed at Alexander. Aimed at everyone watching.A challenge. And a warning.Warning Alexander. Warning them all.He didn't recognize this marriage.Knight Group's future was still in his hands.---My chest tightened.I felt Alexander's grip on my hand. Suddenly firmer.His knuckles went rigid. Veins rose on the back of his hand. But his face stayed ca

My heart slammed against my ribs.Under the weight of countless stares, I set down my glass and walked through the silent crowd toward him.My fingers found his palm, warm.He closed his hand around mine.Tight.The heat of it seeped into my skin, solid and grounding.He faced the room.His voice was steady, carrying to every corner."Since everyone's here, there are two things I need to make clear.""First. The engagement between Miss Voss and me never began. So what exactly did I betray?""Second. There is someone in my life.""She's not a mistress. And she didn't intrude on anything."Alexander's grip tightened.Our fingers locked together."She's my wife. Legal and formal.""We got married this morning.""The law recognizes it. I recognize it. And sooner or later, every member of my family will have to recognize it too."The moment his voice stopped, the world went silent.Like a bomb deton
His Dad Calls Me Baby Chapter 158: Try Laying a Hand on Her Again. Just Try.
Linda's face went white. She could barely stand.She whipped her head toward Alexander, her voice scraping through clenched teeth."You knew all along?"Alexander glanced down, adjusting his cuff."That's an interesting accusation, Linda. You're the one who played the video. How could I have known what was on it?"Linda's voice turned shrill, desperate to regain control."Gerald! Elena must have been forced!"Her composure was gone."Alexander. This is you. You set this up to save yourself!""Elena!"Her voice cracked. One last thread of hope."Tell the truth. Did Luke force you?"Every eye landed on Elena.She stood where the light met the shadow. Her slender back was straight, rigid.Her face was pale. The fabric of her gown was crushed in her grip. But slowly, she lifted her head."No one forced me."Her voice was soft. But clear."I wanted this."Edward Voss shoved away the hands holding hi
His Dad Calls Me Baby Chapter 157: You're Determined to Protect That Girl?
Linda's fingers curled into her palms, nails digging in.Alexander's unshakeable calm infuriated her.She hadn't expected him to be this direct.This unflinching.What gave him the right to stand there so steady?The videos and photos she had were enough to destroy Lisa White's reputation.Enough to drag him through the mud too."Alexander. You're determined to protect that girl, aren't you? To hell with the dignity of both our families?"She drew a breath, as if summoning her last ounce of resolve.Her voice lifted, carrying to every corner of the room."Fine. If you want to see, I'll show everyone.""Just don't come crying to me afterward, begging me to take it back.""Gerald."She turned to him, her voice heavy and cold."I didn't come here to cause trouble tonight. But Alexander has pushed me too far. He's treated my family like we're nothing.""If the Knights won't give the Voss family the respect we're

Gerald's fingers stilled.The lid of his teacup clinked softly against the rim.He looked up, gaze heavy as it settled on Linda."Speak."The music in the ballroom had stopped.No one knew when.Every eye was fixed on the head table.Linda drew a deep breath, as if steeling herself for something monumental.She rose to face the room.The polite smile stayed on her lips, but her eyes held pain."Tonight was supposed to be a happy occasion. Another union between the Voss family and the Knights. I know this isn't the right time to speak.""But for the sake of both their futures, I have to."She turned to Gerald, her voice trembling slightly."Gerald. I've watched Alexander grow up. I've always believed in his character, his abilities.""For Elena to be matched with him... it's an honor for our family. A blessing."Then her tone shifted.Heavy with sorrow."Lately, though, I've heard things. Rumors I di

Luke's breath caught in his throat.It hit him like a live ember, searing his chest.He stared at Elena's closed eyelids.Her long lashes trembling slightly.Her cheeks flushed like a ripe peach.She was setting his heart on fire.Twenty-nine years he'd lived.Reckless.Unattached.A man who played by his own rules.He'd heard every line—flattery, seduction, persuasion.But none of it had ever hit him like this.Just a few words from her, and his whole world tilted.The last two weeks, he'd been the one dragging her into chaos, showing her how to be wild.On the surface, he was in control.But only he knew the truth.This little innocent had quietly pulled him into a different kind of life.And now, what he was about to do to her went against everything she wanted.His chest tightened.A strange ache twisted in it, unfamiliar and sharp.For the first time, he didn't want her to
