My Wife’s Double Life Chapter 8
Despite her frantic efforts, Krystal could do nothing but watch her empire crumble bit by bit. Every day, she would stake out the Greene estate, desperate to meet me. However, I didn’t think there was anything more to discuss. She drained every last ounce of my affection for her over the past seven years, so now, I wished her the worst. A week later, Lynne threw me a huge birthday bash. It was a high-profile event to announce who I was to the city’s elites. It never occurred to me that Krystal would sneak into the party dressed as one of the servers. She cornered me while I was on the way to the bathroom. I turned and walked the other way the moment I spotted her. Krystal grabbed my hand and dropped to the floor right there and then. “I was wrong, Ray! I’m so lost with you. Please come back to me…” Yanking my hand away, I said curtly, “Krystal, just stop. You make me sick. You’re not lost with me. You’re struggling to live without power.” Krystal replied in tears, “No, I

With the kids in her arms, Krystal hurried to a hospital and told the doctors to draw blood for the DNA test. “We’ve collected the samples, ma’am. Please return in a week for the results.” Krystal couldn’t wait a week. Flashing her cash around, she managed to cut the waiting time to just three hours. Those three hours felt like eternity. It didn’t take long before the twins voiced their hunger through wailing. As if she hadn’t heard a thing, Krystal sat there, numbly on the bench. The longer her eyes traced the twins’ facial features, the more she couldn’t find any resemblance to her. Despite the simmering rage building in her chest, she had nowhere to let it out. The cries of hungry infants echoed through the hallway. Many nurses approached to check the situation, murmuring among themselves. “Why is the woman so heartless? Can’t she hear the babies?” “She’s dressed in designer. It’s not like she can’t afford formula.” “She is loaded. She just dropped 100k to fast-tra

I had two bodyguards haul Dennis before me, then struck his fleshy face back and forth. “Weren’t you talking a big game about putting me in my place? Go on. Show me.” After beating him with a flurry of punches, I cracked open a bottle of red wine and poured the liquid over his head. Dennis, his cheeks swollen, wailed, “I was wrong! I won’t do it again! Have mercy, please…” I smashed the bottle on the floor before giving the security detail a look to bring Dale over. Before I could do anything, Dale dropped to his knees shakily and begged for his life. “I was wrong, Ray! Can you be the bigger person and forgive me this once?” Letting out a chuckle, I said, “Sorry to disappoint, but I’m petty and vengeful as hell.” I instructed the security personnel, “Smack him around, twenty times. Then, strip him and take some photos.” These bodyguards were highly trained and massive. Their heavy-handed strikes reduced Dale’s face to a pulp, blood trickling down his lips. By the t

Standing in reverence behind Lynne, Kerry replied, “This is Lynne Greene, the CEO of Greene Apex.” Krystal’s face drained of color. She looked up at Lynne, then me. “How do you know Ms. Greene, Ray?” I clutched the blazer tighter around me, resentment reflecting in my eyes as I met Krystal’s gaze. “Why did you think Greene Apex, the city’s top player, would choose to partner with a little-known company? “Did you think your brilliance shone through?” I scoffed and added. “You might be a competent woman, but talent is everywhere in the city.” Krystal read between the lines. “Greene Apex reached out because of you? The only reason I got the best deals and resources over the years is because of you?” The cold reality sank in. Scrambling to her feet, Krystal murmured to me, “Ray, why didn’t you say so? I’m not a dinosaur. I would never have looked down on you for securing all the resources for me. “Put in a good word for me and tell her it’s all a misunderstanding. I’ll turn

Krystal and the crowd shifted their gazes to the door. Once she got a good look at the person, she plastered a smile on her face and approached with welcoming arms. “Ms. Gibson, what brings you here today?” Kerry Gibson was Lynne’s assistant and served as the official liaison between Greene Apex and the Markham Group for all partnerships and investments.To Krystal, Kerry was the key figure controlling the Markham Group’s financial lifeline.The person, carrying an air of authority, next to Kerry caught Krystal’s eye. Krystal asked, “Ms. Gibson, and this is?” Before Kerry could answer, Lynne ran to me, pulling off her blazer to shield my indecency. “Are you alright, Ray?” With Lynne there, I knew I was safe. Tears rolled down my cheeks. “Lynne, t-they did this to me…” The crowd exchanged looks, trying to connect the dots between us. Just then, Dale jumped out and said, his finger pointing at us, “Oh, so you’re Ray’s sugar mommy.“Krystal, she must be the side piece R

Krystal paused for a second before bursting into laughter. “Ray, if you’re going to lie, at least make it believable. We all know you’re an orphan. Where did this sister come from?” Dale said with a smile, “I think you finally lost the plot. The Markham Group’s funding comes from Greene Apex, the city’s biggest financial player. Do you honestly think that by changing your last name, you can associate yourself with the family?” It was true that I was an orphan, but two years into my relationship with Krystal, my biological sister, Lynne Greene, tracked me down. She told me that I had been abandoned at an orphanage, a casualty of an intense power struggle within the family. Our parents’ dying wish was for her to find me. Given the dangers lurking in every corner of the elite world, I had no intention of inheriting the family business. By going back to the family, I would likely become Lynne’s vulnerability. In the end, I chose to take the family name without going public about wh
