Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 105: The Message
Hailey POVMy eyes stayed fixed on the raw, pale gouges in the stone, the fresh dust from the masonry still clinging to the edges of the jagged lines. The letters seemed to glow in the darkness of the driveway, a blunt command screaming out from the grey pillar.Evans gripped my upper arms tightly from behind, his hands warm but trembling against my cold skin as he forced me to turn around toward the house. "Inside, Hailey, right now," he muttered, his voice low and urgent as he guided me back up the gravel path, his eyes scanning the tree line one last time before he pulled the heavy front door shut and locked the deadbolt with a loud, metallic click.I let him lead me back up the grand staircase and into our bedroom, but I didn't take off my coat, and I didn't climb back into the bed. I sat on the small armchair by the window, staring out into the dark yard, watching the empty space where that silent sedan had been parked at the end of the road.The hours dragged by in total silence
Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 104: The Decision
Evans POVI didn't argue with her. I held her against my chest on the kitchen floor for a few seconds longer, feeling the terrifying stillness in her body, and then I nodded my head against her shoulder."Okay," I said, my voice cutting through the heavy silence of the room. "We leave."I got to my feet and pulled her up with me, guiding her over to a chair before I pulled out my phone. The next forty-eight hours became a blur of silent, frantic coordination. I stayed up through the nights, working from the small desk in the corner of our bedroom, utilizing secure channels that had absolutely no connection to the Wilson family name or the corporate registry. I moved personal assets through secondary offshore accounts, shifting funds into private liquidity where the board members couldn't track the movement.Marcus was the only person I contacted outside of the house, calling him from an encrypted burner phone at three in the morning."I need the deed to the property near Grasse," I to
Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 103: The Phone Call
Hailey POVMy fingers gripped the plastic casing of the phone so tightly that the edges dug into my palm, but my voice stayed completely level when I spoke. The initial shock had receded, leaving behind that strange, icy focus that always came when my deception-sensing ability took over. I could hear the erratic rhythm of his breathing on the other end of the line, a chaotic flutter that told me he was terrified, but I needed to hear the truth beneath his panic."Who is he, Dad?" I asked, keeping my tone measured, slow, and entirely unhurried because I needed to anchor him before he spun out of control.I heard him draw in a sharp, ragged breath, the sound of paper rustling in the background indicating he was moving around a room. "His name is Victor Vance," he whispered, the name sounding foreign and heavy as it spilled through the small speaker. "You won't find him in the standard news, Hailey, because he doesn't want to be found. He is one of the oldest and wealthiest private colle
Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 102: Evans Confesses
Evans POVThe silence in the kitchen stretched so tight that I could hear the faint hum of the refrigerator. Hailey stood directly across the marble island from me, her small hands flat against the edge, leaning forward as if the distance between us was the only thing keeping her upright. Her question hung in the air, cold and sharp, cutting through the quiet room.I looked down at the old photograph lying between us. The black and white image was grainy, but the face of the man standing next to Helena Frost was unmistakable. It was her father, looking decades younger, his jaw set in that familiar, formal way. I had looked at that exact same image months ago, in the dark of my study, feeling the exact same sickness that was currently washing over her face."Eight months," I said, my voice sounding rougher than I intended. I didn't try to look away from her. I owed her that much. "Marcus found the connection when he was digging into the early financial backers of the initial facility."
Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 101: Her Father
Hailey POVThe table between Calix and me felt like it was miles wide, and my eyes stayed glued to the yellowed edge of that second photograph. My breath caught in my throat, thick and dry, because the man standing next to Helena Frost had the exact same square set of the shoulders that I used to watch from the back seat of our old car. It was him. It was the man who had tucked me into bed, the man who had checked my homework, the man who had held my hand when I scraped my knees."Hailey," Calix said, his voice coming from somewhere far away, rough and careful, "you need to breathe."I didn't answer him right away because my lungs wouldn't work, so I just stared at the ink on the paper until the edges went blurry. "He was there," I whispered, the words scraping against my teeth as I forced them out. "He wasn't just a bystander, Calix. He was standing right next to her.""He was one of the primary reasons she had the money to build the first facility," Calix said, leaning forward, his
Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 100: Calix
POV: HaileyI told Evans I needed air.He looked at me for a second longer than was comfortable and then he nodded and said, "Don't go far," and I said, "I won't," and walked out the front door and down the street and didn't look back.The café was three streets away, small and quiet at this hour, the kind of place with steamed-up windows and mismatched chairs that nobody goes to on purpose. I pushed the door open and saw him immediately, in the corner with his back to the wall and his hands around a coffee he hadn't drunk, and five years collapsed into nothing because he looked up and it was just Calix, it was still just Calix, except older, yes, something in his face had been filed down by whatever the last five years had been, but the way he looked at me when I came through the door was exactly the same as it had always been, checking first that I was alright before anything else.I sat down across from him.Neither of us said anything for a moment."You look terrible," I said."Yo

POV: Evans WilsonThe weight of the secrets I carried was finally starting to crush my bones. Every step I took toward Valarie’s penthouse felt like walking deeper into a swamp. I was drowning, and the worst part was that I was dragging Hailey down with me while telling her I was saving her.I grip
Married To My Best Friend; Her Blood, My Passion Chapter 48: The Missing Twins
POV: Hailey WilsonThe mansion felt like a graveyard. After David dropped me off, the silence of the hallways seemed to press against my ears. Evans wasn’t home. He was out dealing with "emergencies," leaving me alone in a house that felt less like a home and more like a puzzle with missing pieces.
