Chapter 105 Heard it loud and clear

The afternoon felt unusually calm.

I sat on the balcony with my books spread all over the table, pages flipped open, notes scribbled in the margins, yet none of it seemed to stay in my head for long. My mind kept drifting—to the exams, to the rumors, to everything I was trying so hard not to think about.

Across from me, Aiden sat with his laptop, his posture straight, his expression unreadable as usual. Even when he wasn’t speaking, his presence filled the space effortlessly.

  • My stunning bride   CHAPTER 204 ALWAYS YOU

    AidenI had negotiated billion-dollar mergers with less stress than planning a wedding.That realization alone should have concerned me.Instead, I stood in front of the mirror inside my dressing room while Martin adjusted his cufflinks with the seriousness of someone preparing for war.“You look nervous,” he said flatly.“I’m not nervous.”“You’ve checked your watch eleven times in six minutes.”“That’s observation. Not nerves.”Martin looked unimpressed.Behind him, Q lounged carelessly on the couch scrolling through his phone.“Honestly,” he said lazily, “this is beautiful for me personally.”I ignored him.Q continued anyway.“The great Aiden Smith. Feared businessman. Destroyer of criminal organizations. Emotional over a woman in white fabric.”Martin almost smiled.I narrowed my eyes.“You both can leave.”“No,” Q replied immediately. “I suffered through your personality for years. I deserve to witness this.”I adjusted the sleeve of my suit calmly before looking at my reflectio

  • My stunning bride   EPILOGUE ONE THE LIFE THEY FOUGHT FOR

    AriannaOne Week Before GraduationSometimes I still woke up expecting chaos.It happened less now, but every once in a while, my eyes would open in the middle of the night and for a few seconds I would expect screaming phones, encrypted alerts, another emergency meeting, another attack.Instead, I would find warm arms around my waist.Aiden.Sleeping beside me like the world had finally stopped demanding pieces of us.It always took me a moment to adjust to the silence.Not because silence was unfamiliar anymore.Because peace still felt unreal.The morning sunlight slipped through the curtains slowly, warming the room in soft gold. I blinked awake carefully before turning slightly.Aiden was still asleep.Which was rare.Very rare.For someone who practically operated like a machine, sleep always seemed optional to him. Yet over the past few months, he had started resting more. Not fully. Not normally. But enough for me to notice.His arm tightened slightly around me the moment I sh

  • My stunning bride   CHAPTER 202 AFTER THE FALL

    AidenFor the first time in years, the screens in front of me were quiet.No emergency alerts.No red warnings flashing across encrypted systems.No incoming reports about missing shipments, financial breaches, assassinations, or attacks waiting to happen.Just silence.I leaned back slightly in my chair, staring at the collection of reports spread across the monitors in my office.Frozen accounts.Seized assets.Arrests across three countries.Destroyed trafficking routes.Confiscated weapons.Companies under federal investigation.Politicians resigning before evidence could publicly bury them.The organization that had spent years hiding beneath governments and corporations was collapsing piece by piece.Not completely gone.Men like that never disappeared entirely.But broken enough that they would never regain the power they once held.And for the first time in a long time, I allowed myself to think the words clearly.The war was over.The realization should have felt victorious.

  • My stunning bride   Chapter 201 THE PRICE OF AUTHORITY

    AriannaI did not sleep well after reading the file.Not because I was afraid.Because I was angry.Real anger.The kind that sat quietly in your chest and refused to cool no matter how calm you tried to appear.For months, I had bled for this organization without even fully understanding what I had inherited. I had adapted to systems older than me, accepted responsibilities I never asked for, and trusted people whose faces I still barely knew.And now they were questioning me.Not openly.Not honestly.Cowards never attacked directly first.They whispered.They observed.They tested how much pressure they could apply before cracks started forming.I stared at the ceiling above our bed while Aiden slept beside me.The room was still dark.My phone rested against my chest, the encrypted file still open on the screen.Emotionally compromised.Overly influenced by Aiden Smith.Leadership acceleration without complete vetting.I reread the lines slowly.Then again.The wording irritated m

  • My stunning bride   CHAPTER 201

    Arianna For a few seconds after I touched the ring box, neither of us moved.The house was quiet around us, the kind of quiet that only came after weeks of chaos. No calls. No alarms. No updates flashing across screens. Just the soft light from the living room lamps and Aiden watching me like the next few seconds mattered more than anything else in the world.I looked down at the ring again.Then back at him.“You really planned this?” I asked softly.Aiden leaned back slightly against the couch, his eyes still on me.“Yes.”“For how long?”“A while.”“That’s not an answer.”“It’s the only one you’re getting right now.”That made me laugh quietly despite myself.Trust Aiden to propose and still act annoyingly controlled afterward.My fingers brushed lightly over the edge of the ring box.I had imagined a lot of things these past months.Survival.Escape.Revenge.Power.But never this.Never sitting in our living room with the man who once felt like a dangerous stranger, now looking

  • My stunning bride   CHAPTER 200 MARRIAGE PROPOSAL

    AriannaThe house felt different when I walked in that evening.Not because anything had changed physically.But because something had finally stopped chasing us for a moment.Aiden was already inside when I returned from the Merge facility.He let me go by myself today. Which surprises me.He was standing by the window, phone in hand, speaking in low tones.Not rushed.Not tense.Just controlled.I paused near the entrance, watching him for a second before he noticed me.When he did, he ended the call immediately.“Come in,” he said simply.I stepped further inside.“You were expecting me late?”“No,” he replied. “I was expecting updates.”That made me exhale lightly.“Good updates or bad ones?”Aiden looked at me for a moment.Then—“Neutral turning good.”That alone made something in my chest loosen slightly.Not fully.But enough to notice.I removed my shoes slowly, like my body was finally catching up to the fact that I didn’t have to rush anymore.“I’m guessing the world didn’t

  • My stunning bride   Chapter 192 When Truth Shifts Shape

    AriannaThe ride home felt too quiet.Not peaceful quiet.The other kind.The kind that happens when something has already broken, but no one is sure how badly yet.The words from the file were still burned into my mind like a warning that refused to fade.> IF THE MERGE IS COMPROMISED, TRUST NO ON

  • My stunning bride   Chapter 189 Power Moves Quietly

    AriannaRecovery was exhausting.Not physically anymore.Mentally.Somehow, healing turned into work before I even fully realized it.My days no longer revolved around medication schedules and physical therapy sessions alone. Now they were filled with encrypted meetings, classified files, coded sys

  • My stunning bride   Chapter 185 What He Failed To See

    Arianna They had informed me my father was on his way up from the intercom. They said it calmly. Not in a way that sounded like a warning. But I was panicking. I could feel the burning sensation in my chest, something very heavy. Like a weight folding me under. The quiet became tighter.

  • My stunning bride   Chapter 182 Back Home

    AriannaThe first thing I noticed when they moved me wasn’t the change in pain.It was the change in silence. No more hurried footsteps and endlessly sirens Hospitals had their own kind of quiet—controlled, mechanical, measured in beeps and footsteps and distant announcements.But Aiden’s house… O
