His Obsession with the Wrong Bride Chapter 57 - The Second Step
The morning came dressed in haze and heat, the kind that made even the air feel heavy with secrets. Jannah moved quietly through the house, every motion deliberate, every sound measured. Alyssa was resting after her checkup, their mother tending to her as if nothing in the world was wrong.But Jannah’s heart thudded with the weight of everything that was.She told them she’d be heading to the market again—her voice calm, her face composed. Her mother barely glanced up from the kitchen, too occupied slicing fruit for Alyssa. It was easier than Jannah expected. Too easy.Outside, the streets were already awake. Vendors shouted prices, tricycles rumbled by, and the sun glared against tin rooftops. But none of it felt real. The world had blurred into a hum beneath her fear.By the time she reached the café, her palms were slick with sweat.Mia was already there, seated at the same window table, a manila envelope resting between her hands. Her expression softened when she saw Jannah approa
His Obsession with the Wrong Bride Chapter 56 - Vanished
Jannah stood frozen long after Adrian’s footsteps faded up the staircase. The air in the Vasquez foyer felt thick, as if every breath was borrowed. She pressed a trembling hand to her chest, trying to quiet the erratic thud of her heart, but it wouldn’t calm—not when his voice still lingered in the air.He had asked for her. Not Alyssa. Her.It wasn’t a simple question—it was a crack in the wall she’d built so carefully between them. And if Adrian Cruz had learned anything from their months together, it was how to notice the smallest fractures.Jannah forced herself to move, to sit on the nearest chair like she belonged there. She folded her shawl neatly over her lap, pretending calm while her body screamed to flee. From upstairs came the faint murmur of voices—Alyssa’s bright and careful, their mother’s trembling with joy, and Adrian’s low tone that made her stomach twist.He was with Alyssa now. Her sister. The rightful one.That thought should have brought her peace. Instead, it ho
His Obsession with the Wrong Bride Chapter 55 - Lies and Escape
The next morning broke quietly, sunlight spilling in soft gold through the lace curtains. Jannah moved carefully, waiting until Alyssa and their mother had gone to see the doctor for her sister’s follow-up. The house felt lighter, emptier, and for once, it gave her space.Her heart pounded as she pulled out the small wooden box again. The folded list she had written the night before stared up at her like an accusation. She tucked it into her pocket, along with a few bills, then slipped a shawl around her shoulders.She left her room quietly, not as a daughter walking through her own home, but like an intruder. Every step down the staircase creaked too loudly. Every sound in the kitchen made her flinch. But she kept walking.At the corner store down the road, she borrowed the payphone—the same one she used years ago when she wanted to call without anyone listening. Her fingers trembled as she dialed the number of an old schoolmate, Mia, who now worked in a travel agency.“Hello? This i
His Obsession with the Wrong Bride Chapter 54 - Between Lies and Love
The first sign was subtle—a dull nausea rolling through her stomach as she rose from bed. Jannah pressed a hand to her lips, willing it away. She told herself it was from lack of sleep, from nerves, from the constant knot in her chest that never seemed to loosen. But when it returned the next morning, sharper and more insistent, she could no longer pretend.Her reflection in the mirror betrayed her: paler skin, tired eyes, a faint softness to her face she couldn’t explain. She gripped the edge of the basin, breath trembling as the truth began to gnaw at her.No. It cannot be.Not her. Not now.She sank to the floor, arms wrapping around herself as the memory of her promise came back—the one spoken in a whisper, desperate and sincere, to her mother and Alyssa on the night before everything unraveled.“I will never betray her. I will never take what is meant only for Alyssa. Adrian may be my husband on paper, but I will never… I will never go that far.”Tears burned her eyes. She had br
His Obsession with the Wrong Bride Chapter 53 - The Ache of Letting Go
The sun had barely risen when Jannah slipped out of her room, dark circles shadowing her eyes from a sleepless night. The Vasquez residence felt suffocating in the quiet—the creak of the floorboards, the faint hum of voices from Alyssa’s room, the scent of breakfast wafting through the air. Everything screamed of home, yet for her, it felt like she was a stranger walking in borrowed spaces.Her gaze lingered on the closed door down the hall. Alyssa’s door. The real daughter, the real wife. She clenched her fists against her chest. If I just keep my distance… if I just let her take her rightful place, maybe this ache will stop.But before she could retreat to the garden, the sound of an engine rolling up the driveway made her breath hitch. Tires on gravel. The low hum cut straight through her chest.Adrian.He had come again.Jannah’s heart pounded, her body caught between running and staying. Every time he appeared, it felt as though her resolve shattered a little more. She pressed he
His Obsession with the Wrong Bride Chapter 52 - Whispers in the Dark
The house was awake by the time Jannah finally dragged herself out of her room, though she felt like a ghost among the living. Her mother’s voice drifted faintly from Alyssa’s room—soft, warm, relieved. Laughter, too. Real laughter. Alyssa’s. It made Jannah stop halfway down the hall, clutching the bannister for balance.Her heart twisted. This was how it was supposed to be. Alyssa returning. Alyssa glowing. Alyssa reclaiming the life Jannah had borrowed like a thief in the night.Jannah forced her feet to move again, heading toward the kitchen. She needed water, something—anything to ground her. But when she turned the corner, she froze.The butler stood in the entryway, speaking in hushed tones. And beyond him—Adrian.He had come unannounced, dressed in crisp black, his presence filling the space with quiet command. His dark eyes scanned the foyer, restless, searching. Jannah lingered in the shadows of the archway, her chest tightening with every breath. From her hidden place, she
