Chloe sat at the small vanity in her room, staring down at the screen of her phone. The room was dark except for the light bouncing off her face and the dim street lamp shining through the thin window curtains outside.

She tapped her fingernails against the edge of the desk—tap, tap, tap.

Three days. The Annual Maritime Gala was only three days away. Every wealthy family, every corporate giant, and every high-society figure in the city would be walking through those doors at the Metropolitan Ha

  • Married To My Husband’s Father    Chapter 74: The Call from the Hospital

    While the rain fell over the gray stone walls of the city prison, a completely different atmosphere filled the quiet master suite of Vance Manor.The morning sun broke through the gray clouds, casting a soft golden light across the wide rugs and dark wooden furniture.Evelyn stood near the large bay window, dressed in a soft beige cashmere sweater and long black pants. Her hair was pulled back into a loose, elegant clip, but the dark circles under her eyes still showed how tired she was after the past days.Beside her, Arthur sat at a tall desk.He wore a dark blue dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms. A clean white bandage wrapped neatly around his lower wrist where the IV counter-agent had been administered. His face had returned to its normal healthy color, his pale gray eyes were clear and focused as he looked through the legal documents on the desk.RING... RING... RING...The sound of Evelyn’s phone broke the silence.Evelyn turned away from the window and reac

    Here’s a full chapter. I want you to help me soften the word so that a non-English speaking countries could understand.The cold evening air inside Cell 4 smelled of old soup, wet wool, and damp stone.The iron door had already been locked for the night, leaving the nine women inside under the dim light of the single bulb mounted high on the concrete wall. Most of the inmates lay on their thin mats, wrapped in rough gray blankets. Some spoke quietly while others simply stared at the ceiling.Chloe sat alone in the corner of the concrete bench.Her eyes were fixed on the floor three feet away. The morning newspaper—the one she had snatched from Monica hours earlier—lay crumpled under the bench, its edges curled and damp from the wet floor.Chloe bent down and picked it up.She smoothed the wrinkles with her hand, pressing the paper against her ruined gown. Some of the ink rubbed onto her skin, but she did not care.She read through the article again.Her eyes moved slowly over every wo

  • Married To My Husband’s Father    Chapter 72: The Headline

    By sunrise on Friday, the news cycle had exploded across every television network, radio station, and digital newspaper in the city.The front page of the Daily Chronicle bore a massive, sweeping headline printed in bold black ink that occupied half the page:THE SECRET OF THE KING ESTATE: TWO DAUGHTERS, A BOMBUnderneath the headline was a clear, sharp photograph of Evelyn Vance standing beside Arthur at a charity function two months prior, flanked by a smaller, grainier mugshot of Lily taken at the police station late Thursday night.The article detailed everything—the existence of an illegitimate daughter of Richard King, whom he had brought in after the death of his wife, the parcel bomb at Vance Global Tower, and the shocking confession that Chloe Henderson had orchestrated the entire plot to destroy Evelyn.Inside the women's holding facility, Friday morning began like every other day.In Cell 4, eight inmates were sitting around the long concrete bench, sharing two morning news

  • Married To My Husband’s Father    Chapter 71: Lily’s Capture and Confession

    While Chloe sat in her cold concrete cell, the shadow of Arthur Vance was moving through the city with terrifying, silent precision. Two days after the Maritime Gala, the heavy rain had finally stopped, leaving a cold fog hanging low over the industrial shipping docks along the riverbank. At the far end of Pier 14 stood a small, weathered warehouse, partially hidden behind rows of empty blue shipping containers. Inside, the air carried the faint smells of salt water, diesel, and aged wood. A simple wooden chair stood in the middle of the concrete floor, illuminated by a single bare bulb hanging from an exposed ceiling beam. Lily sat quietly in the chair, her wrists secured to the armrests with thick straps. Her hair was tangled, her face pale and marked with faint smudges of dirt. Her red jacket was torn at the elbow, and her hands trembled nervously against the straps. Standing a few feet in front of her was Arthur Vance. He did not look like a man who had been poisoned forty-

  • Married To My Husband’s Father    Chapter 70: Inside the Cell

    Forty miles away, on the south side of the city, the air smelled of stale disinfectant, damp concrete, and rusted iron.CLANG!The iron door of the holding cell slammed shut with a sharp, deafening metallic strike that made the floor vibrate underfoot.Chloe stood just inside the bars, her body trembling uncontrollably. Her magnificent emerald silk gown was ruined—torn at the side, covered in dark mud from the service courtyard, and soaked through with dirty rainwater. Her shawl was gone, dropped somewhere in the back of the police car. Her gold hairband hung lopsided across her forehead, the dangling black crystals tangled in her wet hair."Move away from the door, inmate!" a female officer barked through the iron bars, slapping her wooden nightstick against the iron bars with a loud THUD.Chloe stepped back three paces, her hands locked in front of her waist. Her nails were broken and bleeding at the edges. Under the harsh fluorescent light mounted in the ceiling, her skin looked al

  • Married To My Husband’s Father    Chapter 69: The Embrace in the Dark

    Evelyn immediately knelt by the edge of the tub. She picked up a small white towel, dipped it into the cold water, and squeezed it out gently. She smoothed the wet cloth across his forehead, over his neck, and down across his chest, repeating the motion over and over again.Arthur leaned his head back against the cold edge, closing his eyes for three long seconds. But as soon as he opened them again, his gaze immediately returned to her face.He watched her hands work. He watched the way her hair had loosened from its pins, falling in wet strands around her throat. He watched the deep, aching sadness in her eyes."It was Lily," Evelyn whispered, her hands suddenly stopping on his chest. The white towel remained still against his skin."Chloe said it was Lily, Arthur. She said Lily sent the parcel."Arthur reached out of the freezing water, his wet fingers closing firmly around both of her wrists. He pulled her hands gently toward his chest, holding them tight against his skin."Do not
