Victor Hale's POV

Sleep had become a luxury. I hadn't slept for more than two hours at a time in weeks.

Every sound outside the motel room pulled me awake. Every passing siren made my heart pound. Every knock somewhere down the hallway convinced me the police had finally caught up.

That wasn't paranoia, It was experience. Men who survived as long as I had didn't survive by ignoring danger, they survived by expecting it.

The room was still dark when I sat up and looked across at the second bed.

  • Rejected Plus-Size Wife, Claimed by My Husband’s Brother   Chapter 131

    Victor Hale's POVSleep had become a luxury. I hadn't slept for more than two hours at a time in weeks.Every sound outside the motel room pulled me awake. Every passing siren made my heart pound. Every knock somewhere down the hallway convinced me the police had finally caught up.That wasn't paranoia, It was experience. Men who survived as long as I had didn't survive by ignoring danger, they survived by expecting it.The room was still dark when I sat up and looked across at the second bed.Matteo was asleep, or at least he looked asleep. One arm rested over his eyes while the television continued playing with the volume turned low. At some point during the night, another interview featuring Audrey had replaced the news.Even unconscious, he couldn't seem to escape her. I quietly stood, careful not to wake him.From beneath a loose floorboard near the bathroom, I removed a small waterproof pouch.Inside were things Matteo didn't know existed. A forged passport, another driver's lic

    Matteo's POVThe television refused to shut up."...Audrey Williams continues inspiring women across the country..."I stared at the screen without blinking.The reporter smiled as images of Audrey filled every corner of the broadcast.She stood confidently in front of cameras, laughing with women wearing Love Plus designs. Behind her hung a banner for the foundation gala, while photographers scrambled to capture every smile she gave.She looked… Happy, beautiful, and untouchable. The woman on that screen didn't resemble the wife I'd left behind.The Audrey I remembered lowered her eyes whenever I criticized her.She apologized when she hadn't done anything wrong, she waited for scraps of affection I never intended to give her. This woman… She smiled like she owned the world.My fingers tightened around the remote until the plastic creaked."She's supposed to miss me,” I murmured.The words escaped before I realized I had spoken them aloud. Instead, she looked free.The broadcast shif

    Audrey's POVThe morning sunlight spilled across the bedroom, warming the white duvet as I slowly opened my eyes.For a moment, I simply lay there. I felt peace, it was still a strange feeling.Some months ago, every morning had begun with anxiety. I used to wonder whether Matteo would come home, whether he'd ignore me again, or whether another headline would appear reminding the world how insignificant I was.Now… I woke up beside a man who made me feel cherished before I even opened my eyes.Logan was already awake. He sat against the headboard, scrolling through emails on his tablet, reading glasses balanced on the bridge of his nose."You look ridiculously handsome with those,” I muttered with a smile and he glanced over the screen."The glasses?" he asked."They make you look like the world's most intimidating professor,” I muttered and he laughed."I'll take that as a compliment,” he muttered."It was,” I replied and leaned over and kissed my forehead."Good morning,” he muttere

    Audrey's POV I blinked at Logan, heat rushed to my cheeks as his words hung in the cool night air. "Take off your panties, Audrey," he had said, voice low and commanding. My surprise melted into a thrill that shot straight between my legs. I hooked my thumbs under the lace and slid them down, stepping out of them while he watched every move."Like this?" I asked with a breathy voice.He nodded, dropping to his knees right there on the rooftop. His hands spread my thighs wider. The city lights twinkled below us, but all I could focus on was his hot breath against my bare pussy.He leaned in and licked along my folds in one long stroke. "Oh fuck," I moaned, gripping the low wall for balance. His tongue flicked over my clit, circling it before sucking hard. My hips jerked forward. "Logan... yes, right there,” I moaned.He didn't rush. He licked deeper, his tongue thrusted inside me while his thumb rubbed steady circles over that sensitive spot. Wet sounds filled the air between my

    Logan's POVThe conference room on the thirty-fifth floor of Lowill Group was unusually quiet.Nobody reached for coffee, nobody exchanged casual conversation.Every person seated around the polished walnut table understood that today's meeting wasn't about another corporate acquisition.It was about ending two men who had spent years believing they were untouchable.Ryan dimmed the lights before projecting several financial reports onto the screen.John sat beside me, reading through a thick binder while Detective Harris stood near the front of the room with two investigators from his department.Our legal counsel occupied the opposite side of the table. The atmosphere was tense."Let's begin," Detective Harris said.Ryan tapped his tablet, bringing up a timeline."We've completed the forensic review of the offshore accounts connected to Matteo Williams,” Ryan said.Lines of transactions appeared across the screen. Millions of dollars had moved through shell companies over several ye

    Kylie's POVSilence since I got back from travel…That was all my apartment had become.The silence mocked me. Every room that had once hosted photographers, stylists, and luxury brands now felt cold and empty.I shifted uncomfortably on the sofa, one hand supporting my swollen stomach. Just then, the baby kicked again."Easy," I whispered, though I wasn't sure whether I was speaking to the child or myself.The doctor had warned me to avoid stress. I almost laughed. How was I supposed to avoid stress when my entire life was collapsing around me?I reached for my phone on the coffee table, still nothing. No missed calls, no messages, no Matteo. I pressed his contact again and the same automated response answered."The number you are trying to reach is currently unavailable”Unavailable for days. The call disconnected and I tried again, but there was nothing. I tried once more, still nothing. Frustrated, I threw the phone onto the couch."You promised," I muttered."You promised you woul

    Audrey's POV As we stepped out of the car and started walking towards the house, Logan's hand brushed lightly against my back, guiding me forward. “From now on, any text Matteo sends you, you show me,” he said casually. “Every single one?” I asked as I glanced at him. “Yes,” he said. His tone

    Logan’s POV I was going to lose my patience. I’d been sitting there for a few minutes in a very boring meeting.“---And if we look at the projected growth margin for Q3, we can clearly see that,” he was still talking.I leaned back in my chair, dragging a slow breath through my nose as my fingers

    Audrey's POV The question hit harder than I expected, even though I knew it was coming, even though I had prepared for it. For a split second, my mind went blank.“Your marriage to Matteo Williams” the words echoed in my head, it was heavier now that they were out in the open, broadcast for everyo

    Audrey's POVThe knock came again, sharper and closer this time. This caused my entire body to go rigid. Every muscle locked as panic surged through me, my heart slamming violently against my ribs.“Oh my God,” I whispered, my voice barely there. We were going to get caught, this was it. This was e
