Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 199: He Came to Her Father's House
Saturday passes in slow, airless increments.Allie stays in her room. Sleeps until noon. Eats the lunch the housekeeper leaves outside her door without opening it all the way. Stares at Liam's three-line apology until the words stop looking like words and start looking like architecture — the shape of something she can live inside, or something she has to walk around.She doesn't respond.She doesn't know how.By four in the afternoon she's sitting cross-legged on her old bed with her thesis notes spread around her and a cup of tea gone cold, and the house is quiet, and she's almost — almost — okay.Then: a knock.Soft. Considerate. The knock of someone who has decided to be pleasant tonight.Her stomach immediately tightens.Vivian does not knock soft and considerate.Allie opens the door.Vivian is standing in the hallway in a white dress — clean lines, minimal jewelry, hair stra
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 198: Say His Name One More Time. I Dare You.
She should sleep.She lies on her back in the dark of her childhood room with Liam's text still burning on her phone screen — I'm sorry. To you. And to Xiao Han. You were right — and she reads it a fifth time, a sixth, and still cannot decide what to do with it.Is sorry enough?She doesn't know. She genuinely doesn't know, and not knowing is its own kind of exhaustion, the kind that sits behind your eyes and makes the ceiling feel very close.She puts the phone down.Closes her eyes.The door slams open.She doesn't flinch. She doesn't move. She has known this particular hurricane since it learned to walk, and she has learned — over years, over countless versions of this exact moment — to go completely still.Vivian Brooks stands in the doorway with her arms crossed and the specific, luminous pleasure of someone who has just been handed exactly what she wanted."Basic manners,"
Secrets of a Hidden Marriage Chapter 197: Kicked Out — or Running? Even She Doesn't Know Anymore
She doesn't let the tears fall.She tips her head back, jaw locked, forcing them down by sheer stubbornness. The November sky above The Ashwood is dark and moonless, the kind of dark that makes a person feel small, and Allie stands on the private drive watching the place where Liam's taillights disappeared and tells herself, very firmly, that she is not going to cry about this twice.She cried on the bus bench.That was her one.He left again.She asked for one thing — one real, human thing — and he drove away. Which tells her everything she needed to know about where this marriage currently is, and she is done being surprised by information she's been collecting for eleven days.She has nowhere to go.Chloe's apartment is — occupied, in ways that cannot be undone — and she cannot go back there tonight. The Ashwood is technically Liam's building, and even in the borrowed unit she'll spend the whole nig
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

Robert Hart leaned back in his chair, fingers tapping rhythmically against the polished wood of his desk. His sharp eyes settled on the two sitting across from him. “I just spoke with David Brooks. Now that the marriage certificate has been signed, we should move forward with the wedding as soon as

AllisonVivian was just fishing.Tossing bait into still waters, hoping for chaos to bite back.But what she hadn’t expected—what none of us had expected—was how fiercely Liam would defend me. Even now, I could still hear his voice echoing at the dinner table, clear and resolute: "That guy was neve

Scarlett Renwick stood off to the side, arms folded tightly beneath her chest, that signature smirk curling her lips like she was permanently entertained. “He’s in the lounge. Alone. And from what I heard,” she added, her voice dipped in amusement, “even his assistant barely made it out alive.”I d

“Oh? An actor confessed to you, and you turned him down?”“I don’t like him.”Allie could barely breathe. Liam’s gaze burned through her, dark and unreadable.He tilted his head slightly, studying her. “You’re sure?”Her heart pounded. “Yes.”Liam leaned in, his voice a whisper against her lips. “G
