Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 196: Get In the Car — and Everything She's Been Holding Breaks
They are absolutely, definitively, not fighting.Allie processes this in the roughly three-quarters of a second before her brain mercifully instructs her to stop processing and leave."Sorry—" Her voice comes out somewhere between a squeak and a whisper. "Sorry, I'm — you carry on, I'll just—"She turns.She hits the doorframe.She stumbles through it anyway.She doesn't look back.She walks very quickly to the stairs, then very quickly down the stairs, then very quickly through the front door and down the private drive of The Ashwood, and she keeps walking until she's well past the garden lights and the trees close around her and the building is behind her and she can stop and press both hands against her burning face and stand completely still for a moment.Chloe West, she thinks, staring into the middle distance. Hates him. Will definitely divorce him. Didn't move when he kiss
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 195: Gentleman on the Outside, Chaos on the Inside
Preston looked at Liam and waved one hand with the idle authority of a man who has decided the topic is closed."Forget my problems." He dropped back into the chair. "Let's talk about yours. When are you going to go get your wife?"Liam's gaze stayed on the window. The city. The ten thousand lights that were easier to look at than anything else right now."I'll figure it out.""That's not an answer.""It's the only one I have."Preston studied him — the rigid set of his shoulders, the way his hand pressed flat against the glass, the particular stillness of a man who has run himself into a wall and is still deciding whether to try to climb it or just stand there."You were insufferable, you know," Preston said. "When you first got together. Walking around like you'd invented happiness. Made the rest of us want to push you into traffic." He paused. "And now you're standing at a window at midnight like something out of a Victorian
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 194: Has Liam Hart Lost His Mind?
"He accused you of what?"Chloe is sitting cross-legged on the guest bed, staring at Allie with an expression that suggests she has just heard something so absurd it physically offended her."You and Adam," Allie says flatly. "He thinks there's something between me and Adam."Silence."Adam Hart," Chloe says carefully. "His nephew.""Yes.""The one who was just discharged from the hospital.""Yes.""With broken ribs. From saving your life.""Chloe—""Has Liam Hart lost his actual mind?" Chloe puts both hands flat on the bed. "Like — genuinely. I want to understand the cognitive pathway that takes she visited him in the hospital and arrives at something is happening. That's not a misunderstanding, Allie, that's a malfunction."And somehow, despite everything — despite the bus bench and the tear tracks and the cold-lit horror of
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 193: No One Is More Shameless Than You
Preston Whitmore.Allie stares at him and the pieces rearrange themselves so fast she almost gets dizzy.Liam's best friend. The one who showed up at his birthday with three bottles of single malt and a story that kept the table laughing for an hour. The one who Liam trusts the way you trust someone you've known long enough to have survived things together.That man is standing at the top of Chloe's staircase in a gray robe with damp hair and an expression that has just gone from possessive-toward-Chloe to completely blindsided-by-Allie in under three seconds."Sister-in-law?" he says again, like maybe he misidentified her the first time."Hi, Preston." Her voice comes out surprisingly level. "Didn't expect to find you here.""I could say the same." His eyes move to her face — reading her the way men who are good at reading people do, fast and comprehensive and landing on the parts that hurt. "You're alone."Not a quest
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 192: He Called Me Sister-in-Law
"You live here?"Allie stares at the building in front of her — different entrance, different unit, same complex — and then at Chloe, who has her key out and her expression arranged into something carefully neutral."I told you I was married," Chloe says."You told me you were waiting to get divorced.""Both things can be true."Allie opens her mouth. Closes it. Looks at the building again. "You live ten steps from my husband's front door and you didn't think to mention this?""You've been busy." Chloe pushes the door open. "Come inside."The Ashwood is the kind of building that was sold before the first brick went down — developers calling future owners before construction, asking for preferences, building every unit to spec. Every apartment is different. Intentional. Personal.Liam's is clean lines and low drama, the aesthetic of a man who finds visual noise exhausting.Chloe'
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 191: I Also Live Here
She makes it two full blocks before the tears come.She doesn't mean them to. She has been fine — she has been walking in a straight line with her chin up and her hands steady and she has been absolutely fine — and then she hits the bus stop and her legs just stop working, and she sits down on the bench, and everything she's been holding together for the last two weeks stops holding.The city moves past her. Cabs, pedestrians, a couple sharing earphones outside a restaurant. The ordinary machinery of a Tuesday night completely indifferent to the fact that she is sitting on a bus bench in the dark, crying, because her husband has decided she's a person she's never been.She presses the heel of her hand against her mouth.Don't.She breathes. In through the nose, out through the mouth. She has survived things that were worse than this. She has survived Cher. She has survived a forum post and a rigged scaffold an
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 67: A Toast to Liam Hart
Allie’s survival instincts screamed at her. Sitting anywhere near Liam Hart tonight would be asking for trouble. She quickly scanned the room and chose the seat farthest from him, sliding into it with quiet determination.From across the table, Julian Ford chuckled loudly, his deep voice carrying o

The ride home was suffocatingly quiet.Allie Brooks stole glances at Liam Hart from the passenger’s seat, her reflection flickering in the rearview mirror. His jaw was clenched, his eyes fixed on the road, every muscle in his face a portrait of restrained anger. The tension in the car was so thick

David Brooks set down his coffee cup with a sharp clink, his piercing gaze fixed on Vivian. “You auditioned? And you didn’t think to tell me? This production is a collaboration between Cherry Scoop and Time Entertainment. I should’ve known about it beforehand.”Vivian Brooks, her voice laced with d

Every room here had a terrace, and the terraces were close enough that you could almost hear a neighbor’s whispered words.Allie stepped out onto her terrace, breathing in the crisp night air. But as her gaze wandered to the neighboring balcony, her breath caught. The figure standing there, illumin
