Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 239: Allie Brooks, Get Out of the Entertainment Circle
I understand now.The crowd. The signs. The matching shirts. The organized, coordinated energy of people who showed up at a specific hospital at a specific time to confront a specific person.They're Mia Stone's fans.I should have guessed. The language on the signs, the terminology, the specific vocabulary of celebrity fandom: "Heavenly Empress," "get out of the entertainment industry," "home wrecker." These aren't random strangers with opinions. These are devoted followers who have been told, online, in real time, that the woman they love is being wronged by the woman standing in front of them.I can argue with three people. Maybe five.I cannot argue with ten women who are screaming and throwing water bottles and swinging promotional boards like weapons.The first bottle hits the ground beside my foot. The second grazes my shoulder. The promotional board catches the edge of my arm and the plastic cuts a thin line a
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 238: Headline
The journalists are still outside.I can see them through the hospital's ground-floor windows, a wall of cameras and microphones and the specific, hungry energy of people who have just been handed the story of the year. By tomorrow morning, every outlet in Chicago will have the same headline: Mia Stone, rooftop, gunman, fall. Liam Hart, hero. And somewhere in the fine print, my name. The wife who stood behind the perimeter and watched the whole thing.George arrives thirty minutes later.He comes through the hospital entrance at a pace that's almost a run, his suit jacket unbuttoned, his hair off-center, dust on his shoes from a terminal floor. I've never seen George look anything other than composed. Right now he looks terrified."How is she? Where is she?"His voice breaks on the last word. His eyes are wet."Neurology," Liam says. "Third floor. She's sedated."George doesn't wait for more. He pushes thro
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 237: Suddenly Going Crazy
His hand leaves Mia's neck.For one second, everything holds. The man is at the edge. Mia is free. Liam is two feet away. The gun is pointed at the ground. The crowd behind the perimeter is holding its breath.Then the man's face changes.He sees something. Some expression on Mia's face, some micro-second flicker that tells him what he already suspected. She's not going to agree. She was never going to agree. The proposal, the marriage, the fantasy he's been building in his head for months, none of it was real. It was his. Only his."You lied to me!" he screams, lunging forward. "She would never agree! She would never!"His hand grabs Mia's wrist.The gun comes up.Liam moves first.He steps forward and knocks the gun out of the man's grip. It clatters across the concrete, spinning toward the far wall. The man stumbles, his balance gone, his feet sliding on the smooth rooftop surface.
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 236: Let Him Die. Is That Okay?
Mia's screaming pushes the man over the edge. Not the physical edge, the other one. The one inside his head, the line between desperation and something far more dangerous.His face changes. The soft, pleading expression hardens into something else. Something ugly. He raises the gun and points it directly at Liam."Bingbing," he says, his voice suddenly tender, almost gentle, "do you see? The man you spent your youth loving married someone else. He betrayed you. Shall I avenge you? Shall I put him down? Wouldn't that make you happy?"Mia's eyes go red with rage."If you touch him," she says, each word precise, each word a blade, "I will never forgive you. Not in this life. Not in any life after. I will haunt you until you die of fear."The man's brow furrows."You're still protecting him?" His voice cracks. "He abandoned you, Bingbing. He chose another woman. And you still love him? Why can't you look at me? I love you
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 235: You Rejected the Most Beautiful Woman in the World
"You lunatic! Let me go!"Mia pulls against his grip with everything she has. Her nails dig into his wrist. Her body twists. For a second it looks like she might break free.She doesn't.The man reacts fast. His arm tightens around her throat and he takes two steps backward, toward the edge. Mia's heel catches on the concrete and she stumbles. For one sickening half-second she hangs in the air with nothing below her but twelve stories of empty space and the Chicago skyline.She screams.The sound cuts through the rooftop like something sharp. It's not a composed sound. Not the controlled, measured Mia Stone that the world knows. It's raw. Animal. The sound of a person who has just understood, in the most physical way possible, what it feels like to almost fall.Nobody moves.The police haven't arrived. The negotiation team is still assembling. The security guards maintain their semicircle, but none of them
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 234: Crazy Fan
Every face in the room goes pale.A cluster of journalists grabs their cameras and runs. The host is already on her phone. The crew is scrambling, pulling up news feeds, trying to piece together what's happening from fragments and push notifications.Liam's expression hardens into something I haven't seen in weeks. Not anger. Something more focused. The face of a man who has identified a problem and is already moving toward it."I'm going up there," he says."I'm coming too."He doesn't argue. We leave Prism Tower and cross the four blocks to Meridian Tower in under three minutes. Liam drives. I sit beside him and watch his jaw work and say nothing because nothing I could say would change whatever is about to happen.---The rooftop of Meridian Tower is chaos.A crowd has formed along the edge, pressed together in a tight circle that tightens further every time someone new pushes through. Securit
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 119: The Power of Wealth and Jealousy
Julian Ford leaned back in his chair, casual as ever, with a smirk dancing on his lips. “She met you first, so I guess I have to accept my fate. But Mr. Hart, if you don’t treat your wife well, I won’t hesitate to steal her away.”Liam, standing beside me, didn’t even flinch. His voice, as cool and

Allie sighed: “We are really married, but we will be divorced soon.”Scarlett’s eyes widened in disbelief. "How can this be?" she asked, her voice laced with shock.Allie turned onto her side, staring at the ceiling. "The truth is simple. He doesn’t love me. I was just a distraction. A temporary fi

Allie’s hands curled into fists as she glared at Liam.“I don’t care anymore, Liam. Julian is better than you, and at least he doesn’t treat me like I’m disposable. I won’t waste my breath arguing. If you don’t sign the divorce papers, I’ll take this to court. Let’s see if you can keep your secrets
