Isabella's POV

Grace's face softened. "Then make them learn the real one."

I stared at her. Something warm and sharp stirred behind my ribs.

"Is that what you came to tell me?"

"Partly." She hesitated. Then she glanced at the door and spoke even lower. "There's something else, Isabella. And I don't want you to panic."

My fingers tightened around the bottle. "What?"

“Some security personnel who are walking in the hotel are partnering with the Ashford group enterprise company. So,” Grace stops a

  • LOVING THE WRONG BRIDE   CHAPTER 96:

    Julian's POVThe knock came three times. It was hard, like someone who wasn't used to waiting.Isabella went quiet.I was sitting beside her on the sofa. She had been scrolling through her phone for an hour, her thumb moving slowly, her face growing smaller with every headline. The second the knock sounded, she dropped the phone and stood up."Isabella?""I can't be seen." Her voice shook. "Not like this. Not today.""Nobody will see you.""Julian, please."She was already walking. She went into the guest bedroom and shut the door so softly I almost didn't hear it.I stared at the closed door. My jaw tightened.My little sister is hiding in my house like a criminal. And the man who made her feel that way is out there somewhere, living his life.The knock came again."Amara," I said. "See who it is.""Yes, sir."Amara crossed the room and opened the front door. She stepped back at once. One of my security guards stood there, with his cap in his hands.He walked in and nodded at me. He

    Adrian's POVI never slept.I sat at my desk until the sky outside turned grey. Scarlett's words circled in my head like a vulture.“Why can't you come to bed?”I didn't respond to her.Suddenly, a knock hit the door. Three hard knocks."Come in."Mark stepped inside. Two security men followed him, their eyes red from the long night's work."Sir," Mark said. "We traced the number."I stood so fast my chair rolled back. "Where is he?" I murmured."His phone is active in a town called Ridgemont. It's about an hour from here.""Then why do you look like that?"Mark shifted. "Because Ridgemont is not an ordinary town, sir. It is a private estate district. Armed patrols. Cameras on every street. Even the gates are guarded. Strangers don't get past the first checkpoint.""So?""So we can't just drive in. If we make one mistake, they will know we are coming."I almost smiled. It was a tired smile, but it came from somewhere deep."Mark, relax. You know me. Have I ever walked into a place I c

  • LOVING THE WRONG BRIDE   CHAPTER 94:

    Adrian's POVI can't help myself as the phone slipped from my hand and hit the floor.I didn't pick it up. I stared at the screen, cracked now, still glowing with Julian's last message.*So you think you will waste the lives of my sisters and still go free?*My chest tightened. I knew Julian would not take it lightly.I grabbed my phone and walked out. I dropped the room key on the front desk. The receptionist called after me, "Sir, should I tell Mr. Marcus..."I was already gone.I drove like a madman. Red lights meant nothing. Every time I closed my eyes, I heard Julian's voice.*Explain what? You fool.*When I pulled into the compound, the house was dark except for one light upstairs. The guest room.Scarlett's room.I clenched my jaw and went straight to my study. Then I sat down and called Tim and Mark.They came in ten minutes. Tim wore a wrinkled shirt, as if I had dragged him from bed. Mark, my head of security, walked in behind him, calm as stone."Sir," Tim said. "What happe

  • LOVING THE WRONG BRIDE   CHAPTER 93:

    Adrian's POVI walked out of the house and dropped into my car. My hands gripped the steering wheel, but I didn't start the engine.“Where will I meet her?” I asked myself quietly.I had called her phone many times. All not available. She had blocked me.I pressed my forehead against the wheel. "Think, Adrian. Think."She had no friends. She had no money and refused to collect the compensation from me. The only person left in her life was… I sat up.*Julian.*Her brother. She had mentioned him several times, months ago. He ran a hotel. I had barely listened. Back then, I only half-listened to everything she said.Now I would give anything to hear it again.I called Dan, my old friend. He picked up on the second ring."Adrian? It's…...""I need a favour. Julian Hart. He owns a hotel. Can you find it?""Isabella's brother? Why?""Just find it, Dan."He was quiet. Then he said, "Give me two hours."It took him ninety minutes. When my phone buzzed, I read the message twice.*J. Hart Ltd

  • LOVING THE WRONG BRIDE   CHAPTER 92:

    Adrian's POVSince Isabella left, my mother has been disturbing me for four days now. She kept asking me whether I had found her.Found her?"Mother, we are divorced.""I don't care what the paper says."She walked away before I could answer. I sat there until midnight, staring at the wall.Now it was morning, and I still had no answers from Tim and Mark.I pressed the intercom. "Send in Mr. Tim and Mark Donald."They came in fast. Mark kept his eyes on the floor. Tim stood straight, but his jaw was tight. That told me everything before either of them spoke."Report," I said.Tim cleared his throat. "Sir, we are still working on it."“Working on it. For how long?”"I gave you an assignment. Find Isabella. How hard is it to find her?""She doesn't use her old phone, sir. No bank card. No taxi app. It's like she's trying to disappear.""She is not trying," I said. "She is succeeding. That is the problem."Mark shifted on his feet. Tim didn't. He looked at me for a long moment, and I kne

  • LOVING THE WRONG BRIDE   CHAPTER 91:

    Isabella's POV "Which country did you choose?"Julian hesitated. "Japan. Tokyo first, then wherever she wants after.""No one we know is there."I couldn't stay quiet anymore. "Excuse me. Am I invisible?"Both men turned."You're discussing my life like I'm a parcel," I said. "You're picking where I go, when I go, and what name I use. Doesn't anyone want to ask what I think?"Julian's jaw tightened. "Isabella—""No. Let me finish." My voice shook. Do you ask me if I want to go?” Silence stretched between us.Uncle Cole set down his pen. He looked at me for a long time, and then, very slowly, he looked at Julian."You haven't told her?""Isabella, I'm doing this for your good.” Julian said."Wait until I accept before you proceed with the process.”“Don't worry, everything will be fine.” Julian murmured as he looked at Uncle.Uncle just nodded at him."Isabella, my dear. I heard about the divorce, and your brother is right in this decision.” Uncle said.My heart pounded. Right? I jus
