Mr. Billionaire, Your Wife Is Playing You! Chapter 67: Ninety Seconds
The lock clicked. I stepped back from the door, phone still in hand. Miguel Caldwell stood there.He looked at me, then at the blue binder on the table, then back at me. "You're early."I stared at him. "You knew I was coming?""I knew you would eventually."He stepped inside and closed the door quietly."How did you get a key?""Olivia took her mother's spare. She asked me to hold on to it until you were ready.""Ready to discover that my husband has been planning to destroy my life?"His expression hardened. "I imagine that's not quite what Olivia had in mind."I turned toward the table. "You knew what was in here?""I knew enough to understand why you needed to see it.""Then you should have told me.""I wasn't going to walk into your marriage with accusations I couldn't prove."I almost laughed. "There's plenty to prove in those binders."Miguel approached the table. His eyes settled on the custody petition."Zoe?""They're using her medical records to question my ability to rais
Mr. Billionaire, Your Wife Is Playing You! Chapter 66: What 4B Was Really For
Zachary's car left the driveway at 6:45.I watched from the upstairs window until the taillights disappeared. Marcus was with him, just as Ashley had promised. The second security guard remained outside, waiting beside the car.I had eleven minutes to get dressed, leave the house, and reach the subway before anyone thought to ask where I was going.By 10:58, I was standing across the street from the building on Madison.I didn't approach the entrance immediately. I watched the doorman through the glass. At 11:02, he disappeared into the back office. Three minutes later, another man took his place.Ashley had been right.I crossed the street.The brass key felt strangely heavy in my pocket. I handed it to the doorman and gave him a polite smile."Apartment 4B."He glanced at the key, then at me."Expecting someone?""Something like that."He let me through.The elevator doors closed, and I watc
Mr. Billionaire, Your Wife Is Playing You! Chapter 65: Where Marcus Can’t Follow
I wrote the number on my wrist in eyeliner at six that morning, stared at it, then washed it off. Numbers on skin were for women who wanted to be caught.At 6:12, a message arrived from an unknown number.It's Ash. New phone. Don't tell Z. I need to see you somewhere Marcus can't follow. Please.Ashley Linden had never been fond of the word please. Usually, she preferred having someone else do the begging.I read the message twice.Then I made Zoe's toast, kissed Zachary goodbye, and asked whether he'd packed his charger for Boston."What would I do without you?" he said."Lose things. Constantly."He laughed.He always laughed.At 9:40, Marcus dropped me outside Sculpt & Soul."I'll be right here, ma'am.""I'm sure you will."I went inside, waited until the instructor turned away, and slipped through the delivery exit. A yellow cab was parked in the alley. Ashley sat in the back wearing a gray hoodie, her face almost hidden."Second Avenue," she told the driver.No designer bag. No ex
Mr. Billionaire, Your Wife Is Playing You! Chapter 64: The Door at 4B
The building stood between Madison and Park, tucked behind a black awning. Pre-war limestone, discreet entrance, no name on the door. The kind of address designed to keep curious people outside.I paid the taxi two streets away and walked the rest.A plain coat, flat shoes, sunglasses. My hair was tied back. I looked nothing like the woman who usually arrived at buildings like this with a driver and someone carrying her shopping bags.The doorman looked up."Can I help you?""I'm here to check apartment 4B. My friend is considering renting it. She asked me to look at the fixtures.""4B isn't listed.""She said the broker had already arranged access under a company name." I glanced at my phone. "Linden Holdings, I think."His expression changed. Barely, but enough.He picked up the desk phone, spoke quietly, then replaced it."Fifth floor. Don't touch anything.""Naturally."The elevator climbed slowly. On the fifth floor, the corridor smelled of expensive cleaner. Apartment 4B stood at
Mr. Billionaire, Your Wife Is Playing You! Chapter 63: The Other Woman's Message
Zachary had chosen my dress, a deep green number that looked expensive without appearing desperate for attention. He had always enjoyed dressing me for these occasions. A beautiful wife was apparently another accessory worth investing in. As I put on my earrings, he stood behind me, his hands settling on my waist. The familiar gesture made my stomach turn. Once, I might have leaned into him. Now I had to resist the urge to remove his hands and ask whether he'd washed them after touching someone else. "Beautiful," he murmured. I caught his eyes in the mirror. "You do enjoy having something pretty beside you." Zoe spun in front of us in her navy dress, the oversized bow bouncing against her back. "Do I look pretty?" Zachary scooped her up. "You look like trouble." She giggled. I watched them in the mirror, keeping my expression soft. *** The ballroom was already half full when we arrived. Crystal chandeliers scattered light across the tables, a pianist played something familia
Mr. Billionaire, Your Wife Is Playing You! Chapter 62: The Woman at His Table
The charity luncheon was held in a private room at the club on East 63rd. White tablecloths, low flowers, and the usual mix of school mothers who treated every gathering like a performance.I sat between Beatrice and Cordelia. They were already talking about the family luncheon and who had donated the better auction item. I nodded when needed and kept my answers short.Across the room, a woman I didn't know well kept glancing toward our table. Dark hair, expensive dress, the kind of quiet confidence that came from knowing people who mattered. When Beatrice noticed her looking, she waved her over."Celeste, come sit for a minute. You know Rhea, don't you?"Celeste smiled and took the empty chair. "Of course. Zachary's wife."She said it like a title."I hear the school is lucky to have you both involved this year," she continued. "Zachary's been so generous. And you... well, you've held everything together at home."I smiled. "That's one way to put it."Celeste tilted her head. "Some wo
