Married To My Husband’s Father Chapter 129: Julian’s Involvement
The next morning, the sky was heavy and grey, covered in thick clouds that promised an afternoon rain.Inside the grand dining hall of the Whales Estate, the long mahogany table was set for breakfast. Silver platters of fresh fruit, warm pastries, scrambled eggs, and hot coffee sat atop white linen tablecloths, but no one was eating.At the head of the table sat Chris Whales.The man looked tired. His skin was pale, deep lines carved around his dark eyes, and his hands trembled slightly as he held a teacup. The disaster on the red carpet at the gala had already made the morning financial news, with headlines speculating about the "fragile health and erratic behavior" of the newly returned Whales heiress.Ethan sat to his grandfather's right, wearing a sharp grey suit. He had untouched black coffee in front of him, his dark eyes fixed on the empty chair across the table.The heavy double doors of the dining hall opened.Chloe stepped into the room.She had spent two hours in front of

The line had rung until it hit voicemail every single time.Ethan’s thumb brushed over the screen, his jaw tightening until the muscles along his cheeks turned rigid. He had wanted to ask Julian one simple question.Did Evelyn really threaten Chloe because of you? Or was Chloe lying?Julian had not answered.Ethan set the phone down on the desk, its screen going dark. He walked over to the floor-to-ceiling balcony windows, staring out into the grounds of the Whales Estate. Down on the driveway, the soft amber lights of the security gates glowed against the dark palm trees.He rested his forehead against the cold glass, letting out a slow, heavy breath that fogged the surface. The doubt inside his chest was no longer a small, quiet spark. It was a wild, roaring flame, burning through every piece of trust he had tried to build with his long-lost sister.Fifteen miles away, on the upper floors of Vance Manor, the grandfather clock in the main hallway struck eleven slow, deep chimes.In
Married To My Husband’s Father Chapter 127: Fingers Crossed
Two male house stewards rushed out from the dining hall, their faces pale as they saw the shattered glass and the screaming woman in the center of the room."Miss Monica, please calm down—" one steward began, taking a cautious step toward her."You are fired!" Chloe screamed, her voice cracking into a high, ugly screech as she kicked a heavy velvet footstool out of her way, sending it sliding five feet across the marble floor. "All of you! Fired! Pack your things and get out of my house!”The servants stood frozen in absolute terror, trembling under the terrifying, delirious venom dripping from the young woman they had been told was a delicate, refined heiress.Chloe didn't wait to hear another word. She turned her back on them, her heavy dress rustling violently as she sprinted up the spiral staircase, her leather heels slamming against the wooden steps like rapid gunfire.She reached the second-floor VIP wing, running down the long, carpeted hallway until she reached her bedroom do
Married To My Husband’s Father Chapter 125: Ethan’s Reaction
As Ethan walked back toward the bright lights of the grand ballroom, his face grew darker and darker with every step he took. He reached into his inner pocket, pulled out his phone, and opened his contacts list.He scrolled down until his thumb stopped over a number.Julian Vance.Ethan stared at the name on his screen, his jaw locking tight as a cold suspicion took root deep in his chest.He had known Julian for years.“If Chloe’s story were true…” he thought, “Julian would know what had happened between her and Evelyn.”He tapped the screen, holding the phone close to his ear as he stepped back into the loud, shining crowd of the ballroom.…Outside the Grand Horizon Hotel, the night air was cool and crisp, carrying the salty smell of the ocean bay across the wide concrete driveway.The black custom Rolls-Royce Phantom rolled silently up to the VIP departure line, its dark tinted windows reflecting the golden lights of the hotel entrance.A valet opened the rear door.Arthur Vance s

Married To My Husband’s Father Chapter 124: Ballroom
The doors of the grand ballroom swung open, letting out the warm, golden light and the soft humming sound of stringed violins into the quiet corridor.Evelyn walked back into the crowded room, her gown brushing softly against the polished marble floor. Her face was smooth, calm, and completely still, like the surface of a glass lake. She held her head high, her delicate silver heart pendant glittering under the high crystal chandeliers as she moved through the crowd.Arthur Vance stood near the central pillar, his broad shoulders filled out inside his dark velvet tuxedo jacket. He held an untouched glass of water in his right hand, his eyes sweeping over the room with silent authority. His jaw was locked tight, a heavy knot of tension sitting between his dark eyebrows.Then, his eyes caught the dark blue dress moving smoothly through the crowd.Arthur’s chest rose and fell in one long, silent breath. The tight muscles along his sharp jaw relaxed, his broad shoulders dropping a fracti
