Married To a Stranger Chapter 282
Mr Smith froze, then whipped his head around. Leo was striding toward him with a broad grin, hand already outstretched. "Mr Smith, a pleasure to meet you." Mr Smith blinked, caught off guard. He recognized Leo immediately, Owen's right-hand man. On the call, Leo's assistant had been dismissive. This warmth was unexpected. "Mr Yates." Leo didn't waste time. "You brought the contract, right?" "Yes, I did," Mr Smith replied, still trying to process the sudden shift. What changed? Why is he treating me like an old friend? "Great. Let me take a look. If everything checks out, we can sign today." Mr Smith followed him inside, still dazed. The office was sleek and modern, exactly as he'd imagined, yet he never thought he'd actually step into it. Leo skimmed through the contract, and minutes later, it was done, signed and finalized. Walking out with the contract in hand, Mr Smith felt like he was moving through a dream. His fingers brushed the paper again and again, as if confirmin
Married To a Stranger Chapter 281
Mrs Smith stared, her eyes flicking from Owen to Ruby. She had to have heard them wrong. "What?" Owen didn't seem inclined to elaborate. Ruby just smiled. "Pardon?" "Tomorrow. Good morning. Have your husband bring his company's contract to the Knight Group." Mrs Smith was floored. She couldn't stop herself from sizing up Owen again. In a simple track suit, he carried himself with an air of old money. Not your average guy. Could he actually be someone powerful? The thought crossed her mind. Mrs Smith watched Ruby scoop up Gigi and slide into the backseat of their car. Owen got behind the wheel. Now Mrs Smith was just plain confused. Is he her driver? she wondered. Or maybe her husband? No. That's ridiculous. A man like that wouldn't be driving his own wife around like some chauffeur. Would he? Standing there, completely baffled, she shook her head, bent down to scoop up her own son, and headed to her car. In the car, Gigi clung to Ruby, her arms wrapped tightly around h
Married To a Stranger Chapter 280
Ruby glanced at Owen and raised an eyebrow. "She's talking about a marriage alliance with Mr Knight."Owen, who was dressed in casual workout clothes, looking nothing like a billionaire CEO, shot Beatrice a look of pure disgust."Why not? I'm sure he is dying to marry you."Penelope turned to Owen, her eyes raking him up and down, taking in his casual clothes. She sneered."Reina, I know you're divorced, but really, a gym instructor? Is this the new boy toy you picked up?"She clicked her tongue and turned to Owen. "Do you even know what a high society marriage alliance is, sweetie?"Ruby bit back a laugh. Boy toy, gym instructor. She had to admit, Owen did look the part in his workout gear.The irony was almost too delicious. If only you knew you were insulting the very man you're trying to marry your sister off to.Penelope continued. "The alliance between the Knight and Sterling families has been in the works for years. It was only put on hold because Mr Knight got married. But sin
Married To a Stranger Chapter 279
After climbing out of that sea of pain and guilt from reading her sister's diary, an icy fury Consumed, Ruby thought, Reina was the innocent lamb the Nortons had slaughtered.But she refused to let her twin's life be lost in vain.Fueled by her need for vengeance, Ruby's goal was clearer than ever, though her mind was full of questions.Who are the Nortons? And what the hell do they ultimately want? Why had they exiled Reina here?There was only one way to make them come to her. She had to shatter the cowardly image Reina had so carefully constructed all these years.She had to make them see the new Reina, to show them she was no longer a pawn they could just toss aside.That would piss them off, and they'd definitely step out of the shadows and contact her.I don't have the answers yet, but I know how to get their attention. Now Ruby tapped her fingers lightly on the desk, lost in thought.She wasn't sure how much time had passed. When a knock sounded at the door, she turned and saw
Married To a Stranger Chapter 278
Ruby entered the study and settled into the old oak wood office chair at the desk. She pulled open the top drawer and picked up the dusty, old diary with a faded cover. "I hope this helps me figure you out, Reina," she murmured. "I can track those Norton bastards down." She stared at it for a fleeting moment, then flipped through the pages. Her eyes landed on Reina's first entry. It was from 15 years ago. Ruby read it out loud. They just see me as some dumb, idiotic thing. That's why they tossed me aside, right? But maybe living a quiet life here with my adopted parents, far away from their terrifying world, isn't so bad. It's actually kind of nice. At least I can be myself here. No one will mock me or criticise me till I cry. It's nice to feel wanted. For once. Ruby clamped her palm over her chest. Oh, Reina, you poor thing. She knew that her twin had a difficult childhood, much harsher than even the one she had endured because of Shelia. But this tiny chunk of wri
Married To a Stranger Chapter 277
When Caleb returned to his family's estate, his face was a thundercloud.Women threw themselves at him every day. This wasn't his first time being in such a situation, and yet he found himself feeling more restless than usual."Why the hell am I getting so worked up?" He sighed, frustrated. He already knew the answer.Yet he didn't want to acknowledge it. Mia wasn't like those other girls. She was different.But Caleb was still choosing to be blind.He stormed into the Sterling Mansion. He caught Penelope complaining to their parents."Seriously, I've never met anyone so classless. I said one little thing about her kid, and she actually slapped me. She also shoved me after that."Caleb's father, David, looked scandalized. "What?This woman didn't know who you were? The nerve of her!""Oh, she knew," Penelope insisted."I made sure to tell her exactly who I was, thinking she'd back down. I mean, nobody disrespects the Sterling name.But you know what? After she heard who I was, she got

Miss Anderson, you're already married. You cannot marry again. The shocked city clerk said flatly as he slid a paper towards Ruby. Here's your marriage certificate, so we cannot register you again. Ruby blinked, shocked. I'm sorry. What did you just say? You're married? He snapped, waving to the

Married To a Stranger Owen Knight
In an instant, Owen's face darkened, his eyes narrowed, completely void of emotion. He stared at her for a second, then turned to head back into the party. Ruby quickly stepped in front of him, blocking his path. Owen's brow furrowed. Move, he ordered. His voice was low and smooth. The kind of v

With Ruby lost in her own thought,"Shelia was taking her own trip down her memory. Had that wretched Natalia not appeared over twenty years ago. I would have been Warren's bride. Sheila reflected sourly. For two decades, she had lived with a secret only she knew. Her hatred for Natalia had ru
