After the monumental discovery that I may have a half sister, I decided to call it a night. Lincoln asked that Ivy take a photo of the document before reinserting it into my grandmother’s necklace again. He wanted to further investigate this and possibly meet with this woman to ask her a few questions about her previous relationship with my father.

But I was more focused at the moment on the heirloom that lay cracked open like a walnut right in front of me. A necklace so sacred to me, tarnished by my own husband. To think he’d ever have some sort of decency in anything of importance to me; was foolish of me. He’s resented me since the moment we married. And that resentment had only blossomed into full-on hatred - over something that didn’t happen the way he was told it had - over a fabrication by one’s self-deflection.

But that not what bothers me most. What bothers me most is how much effort he put into hiding this document. A partial government issued birth certificate with another

  • My Millionaire Husband’s Secret   Chapter 182: Officer Pennet’s POV

    Normally, I’d dread having to pick up Miller for an early morning run, but this time was different. This wasn’t a routine check-in or another dead-end lead—we had a meeting with Mrs. Crenshaw. Blaire’s mother.A pivotal point in the investigation.Maybe even the end of it.The thought alone had been enough to keep sleep light and restless. I’d been desperate for closure since the case began—desperate enough to blur the line between anticipation and dread.I’d taken the patrol car home the night before to avoid waking up any earlier than necessary. After breakfast and a morning beer—something I told myself was for the nerves, not the habit—I beelined straight for Colin’s place.For someone so closed-off, he was surprisingly familiar with his neighborhood. Every house I passed earned a wave, a nod, even a smile. It was the kind of street where people watched through lace curtains and remembered birthdays. An elderly woman next door caught my attention as I stepped onto his walkway.“Are

  • My Millionaire Husband’s Secret   Chapter 181: Alan’s POV

    Jessie is fine.Apparently.And yet she hasn’t even thought to call me.The realization needles at my chest, sharp and persistent. If she were truly fine, wouldn’t she reach out? Wouldn’t she check in—if not for me, then for Jeremy? That’s what wives do. That’s what mothers do - even if she hasn’t accepted that role yet. Instead, the silence stretches on, growing heavier by the hour, until it feels intentional.She’s slipping away. She hasn’t thought about me at all.Worse than that—she’s slipping closer and closer to that insufferable Lincoln. I can picture it too easily: his calm voice, his concerned looks, the way he positions himself as safe, dependable. Everything I should be to her. Everything I am—or was.I can’t lose her.Jeremy needs a mother.I need my wife.I refuse to lose her to anyone.The thought hardens into resolve as I stare out the window, watching my own reflection ghost across the dark glass. The city lights below look distant, unreal—like none of this is actuall

    She’s coherent again.She’s here completely and she knows.What’s more - she knows and she was understanding.I held onto those feeling for over ten years and this moment, was something close to what I’d consider a fever dream or a hallucination at best.But this could be drug-induced as well and there’s only way to find out. So I picked her up effortlessly and stepped into the cascading cold water.Her reaction was quick and she seemed completely alert, even continuing on with what we were previously doing so I pressed her back against the marble wall behind her - cold as it was. If it was drug-induced, I’d have known for sure by now.Instead, I watch as she gasps in shock and the pull me back in.This isn’t a fever dream. This isn’t drug-induced.This is her.I continue kissing her at her pace, never once trying to push her any further. A few minutes later, we’re both trying to catch our breath.“Can we please use hot water now?” She asks between shivers.“Sure.” I say with a sof

    “What happens then?” I hear the question but all I can think about is how soft and warm his skin feels against my thighs. How his woodsy fresh scent fills the air around us and engulfs me and how his eyes are piercingly teal as they stare back at me.“I’m no t worried about then.” My response. Because I’m not, I’m worried about now.I’m worried about him refusing to give into my urges when I feel every particle of my skin tingling against his. When I have this unshakeable urge to touch him, kiss him and have him.“That’s it. Shower.” He decides as he grabs hold of my ass firmly. I gasp at his touch - his hands are so warm.We make it to the bathroom when he sets me down on the counter and turns on the water.“Do you think you can stand in there?” He asked.I could but that wouldn’t get me what I wanted, so I said no. “Fine. I’ll carry you.” He offers until I take off his shirt - the one I’d been wearing and toss it on the floor next to me.His eyes go wide and he freezes. That shoul

    I could feel her pulling me closer, beckoning me to sink in and truthfully, I want to. I’ve always wanted to but this wasn’t how I wanted it.I wanted it coherently.And this didn’t feel that way.I just can’t do it.I slowly pull myself back and grab hold of her hands, gently pulling them from around my neck and holding them in front of me.“This.. isn’t right, Jess.” I state softly.“But I answered your questions.” She says almost pouting. “You did and I believe that you’re there but I don’t believe that this is you and I can’t take advantage of you.” I say as I release her hands, standing from the bed to create distance from her.“Okay.” She says quietly.“I’m going to call Officer Pennet and see what could be causing this, okay?” I offer a small smile as I pull out my phone, dialing his phone number before putting it on speaker.“This is Mike.” I hear on the other line.“Officer Pennet, it’s Lincoln. Jessie’s been seen by the doctor and given a clean bill of health but I’ve notic

    I stand to greet Dr. Hanson as he steps inside.“Dr. Hanson, I’m sorry to have called on short notice. I hope this hasn’t inconvenienced you.” I shake his hand as I apologize.“No need, Lincoln. It’s no inconvenience at all.” He offers.I watch as the officers slide by with a nod and leave without a word, leaving me to tend to Jessie.“I’m glad to hear it. Jessie is just in the other room. Please, follow me.” I begin walking down the hallway to my bedroom and knock before opening the door.“Well, I never thought I’d see the day where you’d have a woman in your home nonetheless in your bed.” He mocked softly. Dr. Hanson was not only my doctor but a longtime acquaintance and he - like others, was more than aware of my skepticism and need for privacy in my house.“Well, she’s not that kind of woman. I’ve known her since we were children and we’re not intimately involved.”“To your dismay or hers?” He asks quizzically.“Truthfully, mine.” I say quietly before opening the door to find Jess
