Chapter 43: The Spotlight Burns
Huling Na-update:
2025-07-09 15:00:00The press was ruthless.
They called her the silent wife turned whistleblower. They labeled her brave, dangerous, calculating. Headlines painted her as both heroine and villain, a woman who’d torn the veil off an empire and bled truth onto the floor.Photos of Ava in long black coats, walking out of courtrooms and into cafés, flooded the internet. Paparazzi lined the streets outside the Wolfe estate. Online forums dissected everything from her voice to her motives. Some praised her courage. Others questioned her integrity. But no one was silent about her.Inside the mansion, everything felt still.Grayson hadn’t said much in days. He watched the news with the same detached expression he wore during board meetings. But his fingers twitched every time Ava’s name was mentioned. And it was always mentioned.Ava barely left the house.She turned off all her notifications. Deleted the apps. Refused to open any messages unless Luisa flag

Married to my Arrogant Sponsor Chapter 45: The Speech
Ava was invited to speak at a private panel hosted by women in media and law.She didn’t want to go.The invitation had arrived in a heavy cream envelope, with gold embossing and a handwritten note at the bottom that read, “Your voice matters more now than ever.”Still, Ava hesitated.She stared at it for two days, letting it sit unopened on the nightstand like a loaded weapon. The idea of standing in front of strangers again, being dissected, quoted, and spun into a headline it drained her.But then Luisa, always the grounding force in her life, looked her in the eyes and said, “You’ve come this far. You owe it to yourself to stand tall now.”Ava knew she was right.So she said yes.The day of the panel arrived, and the sky was grey, but not stormy. That strange kind of overcast that makes everything feel like it’s holding its breath.Ava wore a cream suit with a silk blouse beneath. No flashy colors.
Married to my Arrogant Sponsor Chapter 44: A Rift Begins
Grayson’s company took a hit.Not just a dent in profits or whispers in the boardroom a full-blown shake in its foundation. News headlines speculated everything from corruption to internal coverups. Shareholders demanded statements. The legal team scrambled for silence clauses and PR spins. A few board members resigned “to pursue other interests.” The ones who stayed? Cold, calculating, and watching Grayson like a lit fuse.And through it all, Ava noticed something shift in him.It wasn’t yelling. It wasn’t slammed doors or sharp glares.It was something colder. Something quieter.Distance.He still came home. Still kissed her cheek at night. Still brewed her tea just how she liked it, left Post-Its with her schedule on the fridge.But they hadn’t laughed in days.They hadn’t touched in a way that felt like love in even longer.And Ava, for all her newfound strength, didn’t know how to ask for something with

Married to my Arrogant Sponsor Chapter 42: The Leak
It happened on a Tuesday morning.No big explosions. No press conference. Just a quiet drop a single link on a blog known for peeling back layers of polished power and showing what rots underneath.The title was simple:“Silence for Sale: The Hidden Contracts of Wolfe International”By 9:47 a.m., the post had over 10,000 shares.By 10:15, Ava’s name was trending.By noon, screenshots of the contracts were circulating every major forum online.By 2 p.m., the firm’s PR team had issued a vague statement: “We are aware of the circulating documents and are conducting an internal review.”By evening, Ava’s inbox was flooded not with hate, not with scandal but with quiet, tear-stained voices from across the world.Women.Dozens of them.Hundreds.Some sent one word emails: “Thank you.”Others shared more.“I was silenced by a clause just like that.”“I thought I was alone.”“I was t
Married to my Arrogant Sponsor Chapter 41: The Flash Drive
Ava stared at the flash drive again. It sat on the nightstand, no bigger than her thumb, but it carried a weight she couldn’t name.She hadn’t opened it. Not fully. Not yet.But something about it haunted her the feeling that she was holding the match and the gasoline at the same time. That what lay inside had the power to burn down everything. Maybe even herself.Grayson walked into the bedroom, towel slung around his shoulders, hair damp from a shower. He paused when he saw her sitting there, back straight, eyes locked on the tiny silver device.“You okay?” he asked, voice soft but cautious.She looked up too quickly, blinking. “Yeah. Just thinking.”He gave her a slow nod, like he didn’t quite believe her, but didn’t want to press. “If you want to talk”“I know,” she cut in.And that was it. No more words exchanged.When he left the room again, Ava moved fast. Slipped the flash drive into her jacket
Married to my Arrogant Sponsor Chapter 40: The Real Contract
Grayson was waiting in the living room when Ava returned. The soft hum of the fireplace filled the silence, casting long shadows on the walls. He looked like he hadn’t slept his collar undone, sleeves rolled up, and the note she left him still clutched in one hand.“You left,” he said, voice low.“I had to,” she replied, just as quietly.He studied her face like it was a page he’d read too many times but still didn’t understand. “I followed you once. I didn’t this time.”Ava stepped further into the room. “I need to ask you something. And I want the truth.”He nodded. “Okay.”“Is the real contract still active?”Grayson sighed. “No.”She blinked. “What?”“I had it voided two weeks ago,” he said, meeting her eyes. “The morning after you cried into my chest at the lakehouse.”She stared at him, stunned. “Why didn’t you tell me?”“Because I needed to be sure.” He rubbed his jaw. “I needed
