THE CRIPPLED BILLIONAIRE WIFE CHAPTER TWENTY
Vivian had tried to ignore Patel's behavior, but after another evening spent alone, she decided she had had enough.Her husband had promised to take her to dinner that night. She had spent nearly an hour getting ready, only for him to send a message saying he had an urgent business meeting.She stared at the message, irritated.Again?She called him, but he didn't answer.Vivian threw her phone onto the bed."Unbelievable!"She was tired of making excuses for him. If he could find time to meet other people, he could certainly find time for his wife.She picked up her handbag and left the bedroom.She wasn't going to sit at home waiting for him.---Vivian went to a restaurant she knew Patel often visited with his business associates. She didn't expect to find him there, but she wanted to have dinner somewhere nice rather than spend another evening alone.As she entered, she noticed a familiar man sitting near the windows.Patel.He wasn't at a business meeting.A beautiful woman sat b

Patel spent the entire night thinking about his older brother.He remembered the days before the accident, when Mich had been the obvious choice to lead the Ethan Group. Their grandfather trusted Mich's judgment, and even the board members who disagreed with him respected his abilities.Then the accident happened, and everything changed.Patel had never asked too many questions. He was busy enjoying the opportunities that came with Mich's absence, and his uncle had assured him that everything had been handled properly.But now he wondered whether he had been too willing to believe what he was told.The following morning, he called Mich.His brother answered after the third ring."Patel?""Can we meet?"There was a brief silence."What is this about?""I'd rather discuss it in person."Mich considered the request."All right. Come to the house this afternoon.""Thank you."When the call ended, Patel sat staring at his phone. He knew he was taking a risk by approaching Mich without tell

Mich barely slept that night.The email mentioning Patel could mean nothing, but he couldn't ignore it. Before the accident, he and Patel had been on good terms. They weren't particularly close, but Mich had never considered his younger brother an enemy.He needed answers before drawing any conclusions.The next morning, he called Emma."Find out whether Patel knew about the changes to the succession arrangement before my accident.""Do you suspect him, sir?""I'm not accusing anyone. I want facts.""Understood.""And don't let my uncle know we're investigating."Emma agreed and ended the call.Mich put his phone away when he heard Lily approaching."Who were you talking to?""Someone from work."She placed a cup of tea beside him. "You should eat something before you start working. You've been drinking too much tea lately.""Is that a doctor's recommendation?""No. It's your wife's recommendation, which is even more important."He laughed.Lily pulled out a chair and sat across from

Mich checked his watch as Emma pulled the car to a stop outside a quiet restaurant. "He's inside," she said. "He insisted that nobody else be present." Mich nodded. "Wait here. If I need you, I'll call." He entered the restaurant and found a man sitting at a table near the back. The man looked older than Mich remembered from the company photographs, with tired eyes and a nervous habit of tapping his fingers against the table. Robert Hayes stood when he saw him. "Mr. Ethan." "Sit down, Robert." Mich took the seat opposite him. For a moment, neither man spoke. Finally, Robert leaned forward. "I wasn't sure you would come yourself." "You said you had information about my accident. I'm listening." Robert swallowed. "I worked in the finance department before the accident. Your uncle asked me to arrange several payments through a company that didn't officially do business with the Ethan Group." "Why?" "He said it was for a private acquisition. I didn't question him at first. H
THE CRIPPLED BILLIONAIRE WIFE Chapter Sixteen
Vivian had been married to Patel Ethan for almost two weeks, but she was beginning to realize that being the wife of a wealthy man wasn't as wonderful as she had imagined. That morning, she woke up alone. She reached for her phone and checked the time. It was past eight, yet Patel hadn't returned to their bedroom. Annoyed, she got out of bed and went downstairs. She found him in the dining room, speaking on the phone while drinking coffee. "No, baby. I'll see you tonight," he said before ending the call. Vivian stopped walking. "Who were you talking to?" Patel glanced at her. "Good morning to you too." "Patel, I asked you a question." "Someone from work." "Someone from work calls you baby?" He put down his cup. "Are we seriously going to start arguing this early in the morning?" Vivian folded her arms. "I'm your wife. I think I have the right to know who you're talking to." "And I think I have the right to make a phone call without being interrogated." H

The following morning, Mich arrived at the dining room to find Lily getting ready for work.She was tying her hair back when she noticed him."Good morning! Did you sleep well?""Yes. What about you?""Very well." She picked up her handbag. "I've already eaten, so I'm leaving soon."Mich glanced at the clock. "Your shift starts at nine, doesn't it?""Yes. And if I don't leave now, I'll be late.""Then go. I'll see you tonight."Lily smiled and hurried out.Mich waited until he heard the front door close before calling Emma into his study."Did you find the person who contacted my uncle before the accident?"Emma placed a file on his desk. "Yes. His name is Robert Hayes. He worked with the company at the time, but he resigned shortly after the accident.""Where is he now?""We're still confirming his location. However, we found a financial transfer from one of your uncle's private accounts to a company registered under Robert's name."Mich opened the file.He studied the documents care
