BETTY

We step out of the car into the cool night air to stretch our legs, both of us needing a moment to recover after that ridiculous make-out session.

The sky above us is clear, scattered with stars, and for the first time all evening, the world feels quiet.

I stretch myself along the hood of Rhys’s car, leaning back until my shoulders rest against the warm curve of the windshield.

The metal beneath me still holds a trace of heat from the engine, and the night air carries the faint scent of g

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 163

    NATHANIELI can already tell the thoughts that are sitting inside her head right now.Who is she? Why didn’t he mention her? Why does he look comfortable sitting there? Is she the reason he has disappeared?She doesn’t scroll any further. She simply lowers the phone slowly before tossing it onto the armchair behind me like suddenly touching it has become unbearable.And without a single word, she turns around and walks back to the couch she was sitting on earlier and grabs her phone.Then, she begins walking towards the door, and without thinking, my hand grabs her wrist just as she is about to pass me, and I pull her gently but firmly enough to stop her.“Betty, wait…”She spins halfway toward me, startled by the contact, and yanks her hand away like I am contagious, making her stumble backward slightly.“That photo doesn’t mean anything.”The words leave my mouth before I can stop them, and the second they do, confusion hits me hard because what the fuck?Am I seriously standing her

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 162

    NATHANIELMy phone vibrates against my palm, and the sound cuts through the quiet living room instantly.It’s a text from my FBI contact. “Found something on Rhys. I need you to wire the payment first.”A dry scoff escapes me. Of course, he wants the money up front. But honestly, I cannot even blame him.These days, everyone moves like they are one bad decision away from betrayal. Trust has become something people sell in pieces, and after everything that happened with Amanda, I am not exactly in a position to judge.The memory tries to surface, but I shove it away immediately before it poisons this moment, too.I navigate toward my banking app and quickly transfer the agreed-upon fifteen thousand dollars without hesitation.The second the confirmation clears, another notification pops up.A folder with photos. And alongside it, a short message. “Here is everything I could pull from the last twenty-four hours on short notice.”My chest tightens. Because across the room, Betty still ha

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 161

    BETTYI am pretty sure this is the longest Nathaniel and I have ever been in the same room without yelling at each other, throwing accusations back and forth, or looking at one another like we would rather be anywhere else on earth.And that’s why this has been nothing but uncomfortable.The living room is quiet except for the occasional tick of the giant clock mounted near the hallway and the soft crackling of the fireplace across the room.I am seated near the window, curled into the edge of the couch, while Nathaniel occupies the armchair closest to the door, as if both of us unconsciously chose positions that would make escape easier if this became too much.Harriette left almost an hour ago, claiming she needed her beauty rest before she “aged ten years from stress,” before pointing her cane at both of us dramatically and ordering us to wake her up the second we heard anything about Rhys.I cross one leg over the other before uncrossing it again moments later, my heel tapping ligh

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 160

    NATHANIELFor several long minutes, I simply stand there motionless while the vest clings heavily against my body and droplets run down my face in steady streams.It feels strange. Like waking up after being unconscious for too long, before my hands eventually move.The soaked vest lands on the floor first. Then the sweatpants.Steam thickens around me while I drag both hands through my wet hair and force myself to keep moving.I step out several minutes later, stop in front of the mirror, and my hand reaches for the shaving cream automatically.The foam spreads across my face slowly before I grab the razor.The first swipe feels almost foreign against my skin, but gradually my hands begin to move faster and steadier, until hair starts to disappear into the sink, my actual face beginning to return beneath all the damage.“There you are,” I mutter. Still exhausted. Still hollowed out.But at least now I resemble Nathaniel Blackwell again, rather than some conspiracy theorist living ben

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 159

    NATHANIELThey have been sitting out there for almost 2.5 hours now. And I know because I have not stopped watching them once.From the balcony outside my room, the garden stretches beneath me in soft evening light, the roses swaying gently every time the wind brushes through them, while the fountain somewhere in the distance pours water in quiet little streams against stone.Right in the middle of all that calm sit Betty and Harriette with enough tension wrapped around them that even from up here, I can feel it.Harriette keeps adjusting the spoon beside her teacup without actually drinking anything.Betty keeps checking her phone every few minutes before placing it back down again, only to grab it again moments later, like somehow the screen might suddenly change if she stares at it hard enough.My fingers tighten unconsciously around the whiskey bottle hanging loosely from my hand.I have only taken one sip since I retrieved it from the cellar after they left me standing there alon

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 158

    BETTYI feel overwhelmed by the time Harriette finishes speaking.Not in a dramatic, earth-shattering kind of way, but in the quiet kind of way that slowly settles inside your chest and refuses to leave.Because nothing about this visit is going the way I imagined.I came here expecting tension, resistance, coldness, maybe even a fight if I am being honest with myself.Yet somehow, I’ve ended up seated in Harriette’s garden while she orders tea and snacks like I had merely returned from a short vacation instead of disappearing from this house for three whole months.The staff moves around us quietly, placing everything on the small round table between us with familiar ease.A silver tea set. Chocolate chip cookies. Small pastries. Fresh fruit.And somewhere inside the house, someone is apparently preparing my favorite meal together with Grace’s favorite strawberry milkshake because, according to her, I can’t go back to her empty-handed.The entire thing feels strangely domestic. Warm.

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN WIFE: My Husband's Redemption   CHAPTER 023

    NATHANIELFor the first time in a very long time, I feel good.Good in a way I can’t quite explain, lighter, almost giddy. The kind of good that only comes when you finally convince yourself that the storm has passed.The hum of violins floats through the air, soft and expensive, matching the rhythm

    BETTYI stare at the black gown draped over my body, and I nod. It’s simple and elegant. The kind of dress that whispers rather than shouts.I chose it because I don’t want to stand out tonight, mainly because Rhys seems to command every room he walks into.My stomach twists with nerves, but undern

    BETTYThe Virnkirk’s really do know how to throw a party.Every corner of this house hums with quiet wealth, soft jazz, expensive laughter, and glasses chiming like silver bells.I look around and recognize more faces than I expect to. Most of them are always on Harriette’s guest list and part of he

    BETTYI shift in my seat, heat flooding my cheeks, embarrassment prickling under my skin, and I glance at Grace, praying she’s not paying attention.Luckily, she’s busy playing with the ribbon on her dress, humming softly to herself, blissfully unaware of the tension wrapping the room like a storm c
