“Cut the theatrics, wife. You’re playing your role way too exaggeratedly.” I couldn’t help but utter, my tone laced with disgust and sarcasm.

I saw shock and hurt flashed across her face. For a moment, I regretted speaking to her that way and I couldn’t explain why. But then I reminded myself: she’s an opportunist, only after my family’s wealth. She deserved it. She’s nothing but a social climber, an exploiter just like the rest of her family.

The only reason I agreed to t

  • My Deceptive Heart   Chapter 86: Unfair Comparison

    Because of our fight the night before, Zeke left for the office early the next morning without even taking breakfast. The silence he left behind inside the house felt unusually heavy.It was obvious he was still upset with me. Honestly, I could not blame him. Even after he left, the tension from our argument still lingered in my chest, making it difficult for me to focus properly. But instead of dwelling on it, I tried to continue with my usual routine for the day.I planned to finish the painting I had been working on for days and later call Sybil to check how things were going at the gallery. I thought immersing myself in work would help distract me from the uncomfortable thoughts clouding my mind but before I could even begin painting, my phone suddenly rang. It was my Mom so I answered immediately."Andra darling, the investigators your father hired reported that Kyle is in the country," she announced without preamble.Her voice carried both surprise

  • My Deceptive Heart   Chapter 85: Fire and Ice

    I didn’t even think about the fact that he was right behind me. Not until I felt his presence closer than before. I paused for a fraction of a second. By then, I had already taken off my bra. The fabric was gone, leaving my skin exposed to the cool air. I was only wearing my thong, my back partially turned to him. I didn’t need to look to know he was watching.But I did anyway, just for a moment. And I saw it. The way his eyes lingered on me. The way they darkened slightly. The unmistakable flicker of desire that passed through them. It caught me off guard, even though it shouldn’t have.He had seen me like this countless times before because we had been so intimate so many times and even had sex multiple times. There was nothing new about it. So why did it feel different now?I forced myself not to react. There was no point in acting shy, no reason to pretend. Instead, I simply turned my back fully to him and faced the closet, pretending to search through my cl

  • My Deceptive Heart   Chapter 84: Cold War

    “I want to be angry at you,” I continued, my voice firm but not raised. “At both of you. Do you even realize how selfish you were?”“I’m sorry,” he said immediately. “I’m really, really sorry.”“Let me finish,” I said, taking a breath.“I want to hate you. I really do. But seeing you like this… seeing how unhappy you are after everything…” I shook my head slightly. “I guess it’s true. You can’t build happiness by hurting other people.” My voice softened despite myself.“I did love you once. You were my best friend and that is exactly why this pain cuts so deep… And yet… despite everything, I still find myself trying to forgive you, trying to forgive both of you because at the end of the day, she is still my sister, and in some way, you will always be a friend to me too.” I lowered my gaze for a moment before looking back into his eyes.“Thank you,” he whispered, his voice thick with relief. I could see the overwhelming gratitude shining clearly in

    "I knew she was ambitious," he continued, his gaze hardening slightly, "but I never thought she would go that far. I never thought she would use her beauty and her body just to get what she wants." The words felt wrong the moment I heard them.They did not fit the version of Alexa I knew. The sister I grew up with who always seemed so confident in everything she did. The one who had loved fiercely, at least from what I had seen. But doubt crept in anyway.How well did I really know her now? It had been years since we last lived under the same roof. I had spent so much time in France, building a life far from home, far from her. People change. Circumstances change them, ambitions shape them, and sometimes they become someone you no longer recognize. Maybe I had been holding on to a memory instead of the truth."It hurts. To think that she did that to me again." Kyle said, his voice tightening, pulling me back to the present. I frowned slightly, confusion replacin

  • My Deceptive Heart   Chapter 82: Broken Vows

    “I’m the only one who came back, Andra. I honestly don’t know where she is right now.” His tone was steady, but there was something beneath it. Something raw, something that sounded dangerously close to anger. I knew it was not directed at me, but that did not make it any easier to understand.“How could you not know? Weren’t you the ones who left together? Do you even realize the mess you both caused?” I demanded, leaning forward slightly, my frustration rising.“I know,” he said quickly, cutting through my words. His voice dropped, quieter now but heavier. “And we are so sorry. Especially to you. I know we caused you a lot of trouble.”He took a deep breath, as if trying to steady himself, and looked away. His eyes lost focus, fixed on something I could not see. It was at that moment that I noticed it clearly. The exhaustion, the sadness, the way his entire demeanor seemed weighed down, like he had been carrying something far too heavy for far too long.

  • My Deceptive Heart   Chapter 81: Heart's Direction

    I was in a boutique for shopping, slowly moving from one rack to another, letting my fingers brush over fabrics without really seeing them, when I heard someone call my name. The voice was familiar, enough to make my heart skip in surprise."Andra?"I froze for a split second before turning toward the sound. The moment I saw him, my breath caught in my throat."Kyle?" I said, the name coming out almost uncertain, as if I needed to say it out loud to believe it."W-What are you doing here?" Out of everyone I could have run into, I never expected it to be him.My eyes instinctively scanned the boutique, searching for someone else. For her. For Alexa. He was never without her, not after everything. But there was no sign of her anywhere. No familiar figure standing nearby, no presence that hinted she had just stepped away. It was just him."I'm obviously shopping just like you," he replied with a small, casual smile.His tone

    It was Friday night when we attended a lavish party put on by one of the company's most important clients. It was a formal event in a big, beautiful room with sparkling lights hanging from the ceiling and soft tablecloths on every table. I wore a long red dress with a halter neck that flowed to m

    He gently let go of me and climbed out of the tub, a deep scowl etched across his face. I couldn't look away from the way his jaw clenched and his forehead furrowed before he turned his back on me and stepped into the shower to rinse off.My eyes drifted over his naked body, and I couldn't help but

    When we got back to the city, I don't know how it happened but I just let him convince me to sleep in his room from then on. I still haven't heard him say what we are or where our relationship stands. Yet he remains so sweet and incredibly attentive. He brings me flowers, chocolates, and all sort

  • My Deceptive Heart   Chapter 64: When Passion Meets the Soul

    Once inside our room, he pulled off my bikini top, not roughly, but with a hunger that matched my own and kissed one breast while massaging the other with his hand. We were both still dripping from the jacuzzi, but cold was the last thing on my mind; in fact, I felt so hot and thirsty. His kisses
