His Tamed Wife, The Wild Heiress Chapter 100
Chapter 100: The Hospital ClipADRIA"Someone's going to have to explain to me," Marcus said, into the new quiet, "who keeps getting this on camera. Because it's been—" He held up his phone. The notification light was practically strobing. "It's been approximately forty minutes since the hospital and people are already commenting.""What?" I said."The parking lot cameras," Damien said, with the resignation of a man who had accepted a fact."The parking lot cameras were from before," Marcus said. "This is new." He turned his phone around.Someone had filmed through the hospital window. The discharge waiting area had large windows facing the parking access road, and someone—a passerby, someone in a car, someone with a phone and an angle—had filmed through the glass. The footage was distant and slightly blurred by the window, but it showed two people in a waiting area, shoulder to shoulder, one with a wrapped ankle. And it showed the moment where the person with the wrapped ankle had pr

Chapter 99: Tension Between Kieran and DamienADRIAIt opened with exactly the energy I had come to associate with the arrival of Damien's friends—all the way, fast, the energy of people who were moving with purpose and not expecting to interrupt anything because the concept of interrupting things had apparently not taken firm root in their collective understanding.Marcus came through first. Then Thomas. Then Robert.And then, a beat behind them, Kieran.I registered all four of them in the same second. Registered Damien's hand on mine, and the fact that we were shoulder to shoulder with approximately no space between us, and the particular expression on my face that I had not yet managed to compose into something neutral because I had been in the middle of a moment and moments were difficult to exit quickly.The four of them saw all of this.Marcus stopped.Thomas walked into Marcus from behind.Robert, who had better spatial awareness than the other two, stopped before the collisio

Chapter 98 Complicated Feelings ADRIAThe hospital discharged me at four thirty in the afternoon.Sprained ankle, wrapped firmly, instructions about elevation and ice and not doing things that would aggravate it, which I planned to follow for exactly as long as it was convenient and then reassess. Damien's stitches had been checked and declared intact, which he received as confirmation that everything was fine and I received as relief that I kept to myself.We were waiting for Yusuf to bring the car around.This was the specific, transitional quiet of the end of a medical event—the paperwork done, the discharge instructions received, the immediate crisis resolved, and nothing yet to fill the space that the crisis had been occupying. Damien was sitting beside me on the edge of the discharge area seat, closer than he needed to be given the available space, and I was not examining why I hadn't moved to create more distance.The ankle throbbed. I was managing it."You should have the ele

Chapter 97: ViralADRIA "Then I think you're being quite hard on yourself for not having anticipated something that had never happened before," I said.He was quiet for a long moment. Something in his expression shifted—very slightly, barely visible, the small movement of someone who had been carrying something and had just felt the weight redistribute slightly."I will not let it happen again," he said."I know," I said.He nodded. Stepped back to the entrance of the bay.Damien had been watching this exchange. When I looked at him, he was looking at me with the expression I had started to think of as the unmanaged one—the one that appeared when he had stopped deciding what to show."What?" I said."Nothing," he said."You're looking at me like something.""I'm looking at you like someone who just talked Yusuf out of resigning," he said. "Because that was where that was going."I looked at Yusuf.Yusuf was examining the curtain that separated bays with the focused interest of someon

Chapter 96: Yusuf Apology ADRIA I stared at the ceiling of the ambulance as it started moving and did not think about the cameras that had been running the entire time. I thought about the pressure of his hand and the twenty minutes I had to wait and the ankle that was going to be complicated and the fact that somewhere out in the world the footage was moving at a speed that Elijah had said was faster than anything else this week.I thought about all of that from a very great distance.---Elijah called again when I was in the imaging room.I'd asked the technician for thirty seconds and she'd been kind about it. I answered with one hand while the other lay flat on the table."I need you to know some numbers," Elijah said. He didn't say hello. He understood that I was somewhere busy."Tell me.""The main compilation clip is at two point one million views. That's in forty minutes." A pause. "The specific clip of him carrying you out of the stairwell is separate. Someone isolated it.

Chapter 95: Twenty minutes ADRIA"The paramedics want to take you in the ambulance," he said. "Imaging for the ankle.""I know. You agreed to it.""I agreed to it for both of us," he said. "My arm needs the stitches checked.""The ambulance is going to be on camera.""I know," he said."Damien—""I know," he said again. "It doesn't matter."I looked at him.He looked back."Come on," he said. He stood up and held out his good hand.I took it.---The ambulance loading was, as I had predicted, on camera.Not just the parking lot cameras. The person filming from across the street was still there—I clocked them as we crossed the lot, phone raised, the particular stillness of someone recording rather than simply watching. There were also two other phones visible, people who had been in the parking lot when everything started and had stayed.I was aware of all of this and I was also aware that I was not performing anything right now. I was tired and my ankle hurt and I had heard a gun fir

Chapter 45DAMIENAnd maybe, if I played the part well enough, I could convince myself that it was true.That I wasn't a monster who'd married someone out of pity and then punished her for accepting.That I wasn't the villain in this story.That I was just a man who'd made some mistakes and was try

Chapter 44DAMIENBecause the truth was, I didn't care. Not really. I cared about how her unhappiness reflected on me, about how her misery might impact my reputation or my business. But I didn't care about her as a person, didn't care about what she wanted or needed or felt.I'd married her becaus

Chapter 41ADRIAI sat in my empty apartment, holding my phone, staring at that last message and trying to decode what she'd meant.Do you know me?The question echoed in my head, mixing with the fragments of my dreams—the screaming child, the impact against my skull, the darkness that swallowed ev

Chapter 40KIERANThree hours of Adriana sitting across from her husband and his ex-girlfriend, probably being ignored and dismissed and made to feel small.My hands clenched into fists.This was why I couldn't go to the Met Gala. Because if I saw Damien treating her like that in person, if I watch
