Sansa’s POV

I stood frozen as Winston’s eyes widened at the sight of her, coughing blood and now unconscious in his arms.

Was she dead? Was she finally dead?

I didn't feel as pleased as I wanted. I pitied her.

"Get the nurse! Now!" he barked to the guards outside the penthouse door.

My heart raced painfully against my ribs as I stared at Eleanor.

She was slumped forward, coughing violently, blood staining her pale lips and chin.

Although her eyes were closed, her body kept twitching as the blood poured down her lips.

The sight of it made my stomach twist uncomfortably, a spike of fear shooting through me.

What would Winston do if she died? She'd said she had a few months to live after all. What if she was wrong? What if the cancer had gotten worse?

“Where the fuck are the doctors?!" Winston bellowed angrily.

“I've just called for the estate clinic, the doctor will be here shortly," the maid replied hurriedly.

I was frozen, I couldn't say a word.

Moments later, the door bur

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 51: Defending Her Dignity

    Winston's POV I stared at the closed door for a long time after Sansa walked out.What did she think she was doing? Talking to Killian after everything he's put her through? The way her shoulders had slumped, the way she couldn’t meet my eyes after I asked if she was still speaking to Killian, it told me everything. I didn’t need words. I saw the guilt in the way she clutched her phone, the way her lips trembled before she whispered, “Nothing,” and turned to leave.But it wasn’t “nothing.” It was everything.I should’ve stopped her. Should’ve asked her to sit. To talk. To scream if she wanted to. But I didn’t. Instead, I did what I’ve always done, buried it under a mountain of coldness and watched her walk away. I’m Winston Wolfe. Billionaire. Kingmaker. CEO of a multi-billion dollar empire. I’ve built nations out of dirt and ashes. I’ve outmaneuvered governments and watched men crumble from just one glare. But one look from that girl, one word, one sad expression and I felt li

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 50: Broken Silence

    Sansa’s POVThe moment I saw the photos, the world tilted.My fingers trembled, my throat closed, my vision blurred and splintered like shattered glass.I couldn’t breathe.What?! He wasn't lying. Christian really wasn't lying when he said he'd had his way with me. But why was it in the photo? Who took pictures of us? Did Christian do this? My hands shook as I tried to pick up the phone and call Ellen. Or maybe Christian himself. But what would I say? What was I going to tell him? The shame froze me in place. I didn’t even realize Winston had come out of the bathroom until I heard the soft shuffle of his feet on the carpet behind me.Gone was the man who had held me, who had kissed me like I was the center of his universe.I didn't see him the same way right now. In fact, I wanted to run. A towel hung low on his waist, his body was still glistening from the shower and a lazy, crooked smile tugged at his lips as his eyes found me.“Sansa,” he said, voice low, amused. “You look li

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 49: Captured Shame

    Sansa’s POV As quickly as I could run, I fled to my room and slammed the door shut. Breathing heavily, I leaned against it, as if it were the only thing keeping me from collapsing to the floor. My legs ached. My chest felt hollow. I hadn’t even bothered to take off my heels. I crossed the room and let myself fall face-first into the bed. The events of the last twenty-four hours clung to my skin like a second layer of grime I couldn’t scrub off.“What have I done?" I was beginning to sound like a broken record? How long is before I stopped being so pathetic? My phone buzzed again and I jerked up. Ellen.Of course.I groaned and turned my head to the side, ignoring it. Again.But the guilt wouldn’t let me breathe. I owed her something, I had to explain why I was suddenly unreachable. I couldn’t keep shutting people out, could I?The buzzing returned persistently until I reached out with a sigh and finally answered. “What the hell, Sansa?” Ellen's voice pierced my eardrum. “I’ve

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 48: Walk of Shame  

    Sansa's POV The road blurred as I sat in the backseat of the cab. It was slightly cold that morning and I could see the dew clinging to my hair but I couldn’t feel a thing. My arms were wrapped tightly around myself, as if that alone could stop the tremble running through my body. I was dying inside. The shame, the confusion, the rawness of everything I had just done, it clung to me like a second skin. I hadn’t picked up my bag from the office. Hadn’t returned Ellen’s calls. Even as I sat in the backseat of the car, my phone rang again and again, but each time I saw her name flash across the screen, shame crawled up my throat like a lizard. What would I even say?"Hey, I went ahead and slept with my business partner. That thing we said we’d never do? I did it."Shit. I couldn’t say that. Not to her. Not to myself. It sounded pathetic. Just like I felt. “We're here," the cab driver said as we pulled close to the Wolfe Estate. I nodded, paid him by transfer and moved out of the

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 47: A Wanton Heiress 

    Sansa’s POVI recovered from the darkness slowly and painfully, as if I was clawing my way up from deep underwater. My head was pounding like a freaking drum, each throb in my skull made me wince. I groaned aloud, my body twitching helplessly as the sheets tangled around my limbs. "Ugh..." I whimpered, trying to move, but it felt like my arms and legs were weighed down with iron.Through the haze, only one name found its way to my lips. "W-Winston..." I croaked, with a desperate and broken voice. Where was he? He should be here to hold me. To make me feel safe. I reached blindly for him. For the only man who could ever make me feel safe. Where was he? Where was Winston?He's always come to my aid somehow. I stirred and my head pounded terribly. Slowly, the memories began to drift to me. I could remember it in bits and pieces. What was happening to me? I remembered sweet chocolate at the Wolfe Estate. I remembered Eleanor as she almost died in front of me. But then, fl

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 45: The Unpleasant Distraction 

    Sansa's POV My heart nearly stopped. “Two weeks?" The words came out a little broken. He was going to be away for two weeks? What was I to do with myself? What could I possibly do without Winston? He was a thorn in my flesh no doubt but still the thought of him not being close to me left me panicked. “Yes, that's why I want you to come." "I won't come,” I replied coldly. Yeah. Like that was what I really felt. Of course I wanted to leave the mansion. I couldn't stay in the company of Eleanor alone. I didn't know what I was more comfortable with. The part of her that was crazy and wanted me to leave her family or the part of her that was sober and had actually apologized. "Come on, I know you don't want to be here all by yourself.” "I'm not a child. I'm a grown woman. Married and with a company to handle.” Winston looked at me oddly. "You don't have to remind me of the mistake you made marrying my son.” "It's not my fault that you seem to forget I'm not a child.” "Tryi

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 44: A Chocolatey Promise 

    Sansa's POV I almost didn't show up. “Is he threatening me?" I hissed as I paced my bedroom. What would he do? I knew Winston could hurt me. He was in fact the only safe thing about my current chaotic life. But knew he had his ways of messing with my head. Ways that would leave me drained and begging for more. “Damn it!" I hissed and decided to do as he said. Slowly, I moved to my closet and picked out a dress. It wasn’t bravery that dragged me upstairs to the penthouse floor, it was pure survival. I was trying to not get on his bad side. I was avoiding trouble, avoiding more drama with him. And maybe, avoiding the fire Winston Wolfe kept setting inside me every time he looked at me.As I got to the elevator and stepped in, I smoothed my hands over the simple navy blouse and pencil skirt I wore for work. The elevator chimed softly as it reached the penthouse. I stepped out into the part of the mansion I hadn't seen before. The floor-to-ceiling windows framed the balcony

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 43: A Thorn Among Roses

    Sansa's POV I didn't want to have dinner with her. No. I didn't even want to see her. She reminded me of what I thought I had. Winston. But somehow, I couldn't refuse her. I nodded and followed her into the dining room. Dinner with Eleanor was strange. Eleanor had prepared a small feast. There was soup, grilled fish, lamb and pork sauce, salad, parfait and a bottle of white wine. It smelt amazing and tasted even better. I sat stiffly across from her, not quite sure if this was another trap. “How was work today?" She asked. I nodded quietly. She must have noticed my stiffness because he sighed heavily. “You have every right to be upset. I would be too if I was in your shoes.” "It's fine, I guess I was wrong about you.” I replied. She nodded. "And I was wrong about you too. I guess I thought Winston liked you some other way, but I was wrong, he only cares about you because you're Killian's wife.” If only she knew how wrong that was. But I couldn't say anything so I nodded
