Chapter 149

"Ethan!" Elena called out desperately, her voice echoing off the walls. "Ethan, wait!"

But he didn't stop. If anything, he walked faster, his long strides carrying him quickly down the road. Elena could see the rigid set of his shoulders, the way he held his head like he was trying to escape from something painful.

"Where are you going?" Elena asked breathlessly when she finally caught up to him, her chest rising and falling rapidly from running.

Ethan stopped walking but didn't turn around to face her. She could see his reflection in the glass doors ahead of them, and his expression looked like someone who had just watched their world crumble.

"I need to get something from my apartment," he said, his voice carefully controlled, like he was working hard to keep his emotions in check. "The doctor said Mia would be discharged soon, though I don't know exactly when. She'll need some things from home."

His excuse sounded hollow, even to his own ears. They both knew he wasn't r

  • THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: Marry To Rival's Son    MAYBE HE HAD RECEIVED A TIP ABOUT THE MURDER

    Chapter 164He hadn't wanted to believe that his father, Samuel could be involved in something so horrible. Ho would he kill his wife, the mother of his child. But Mia's instincts had always been good, so he had agreed to watch him carefully.That's why Ethan was still living at the Meyer family home instead of his own penthouse. He told himself it was because he was helping with funeral arrangements and family business, but really, he was watching his father's every move.The house felt empty and wrong without his mother there. Every room held memories of her, her laugh echoing from the kitchen, her perfume lingering in the hallways, her voice calling to him from the garden.She was greedy and sometimes cruel, but she was still my mother. She didn't deserve to die like that. ..........For two weeks, Ethan and Mia had been conducting their secret investigation. Mia would visit every couple of days, pretending to check on her grieving brother. Ethan would act like he didn't want to

  • THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: Marry To Rival's Son    I THINK YOU SHOULD KEEP AN EYE ON SAMUEL

    Chapter 163For days, the police kept calling Elena in for interrogation. Each time, the same detective with tired eyes would ask her the same questions over and over again. Each time, she would sit quietly with Stefan's lawyer and repeat that she was innocent."I didn't do it. I didn't kill her. I've never even thought of harming anyone my life" She'd always repeat.She was tired of the constant questioning wasn't what was eating her alive. It was the deafening silence from Ethan.He hadn't called her. He hadn't texted. He hadn't even tried to see her. She had tried calling him dozens of times, but every call went straight to voicemail. Her messages went unanswered. It was like he had completely erased her from his life.She sat in her room at Stefan's house, staring at her phone and willing it to ring. The engagement ring was still on her finger, but it felt heavy now, like a reminder of everything she had lost.Maybe he really does think she killed his mother, she thought, her hear

    Chapter 162"I need to go freshen up," Elena said, heading toward the stairs. She was determined not to let this situation make her cry or feel sorry for herself.She was innocent. There was no reason to be sad or defeated. Everything would work out in the end.She walked into her bedroom and slowly removed what should have been her wedding dress. The beautiful white fabric now felt heavy and cursed. She would probably never be able to look at this dress again without remembering this terrible day.She dropped the dress on the floor and walked naked into her bathroom, turning on the shower and letting the hot water wash over her.As she stood under the spray, Elena allowed herself to think about what had happened. She had never imagined her wedding day going like this. This morning, she had been so happy, so excited about starting her new life as Mrs. Elena Meyer.Now she wasn't even sure if Ethan still wanted to marry her. She wasn't sure he would want to have anything to do with the

  • THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: Marry To Rival's Son    THE STRESS OF THIS SITUATION COULDN'T BE GOOD

    Chapter 161Elena stood there in handcuffs as she watched Ethan walk away from her, his shoulders shaking with grief and shock. She wasn't angry at him for leaving. No, she felt deep pity for him.He had just lost his mother on what was supposed to be the happiest day of their lives. His wedding day had turned into a nightmare, and now he was dealing with the horrible reality that someone he loved was accused of killing the woman who gave birth to him.How do you process something like that?* Elena thought as the police officers guided her toward their car. How do you choose between the woman you want to marry and your dead mother?As she was being escorted out of the courthouse, Elena caught sight of Mia's face through the car window. Her best friend looked terrified and heartbroken, tears streaming down her cheeks as she watched Elena being taken away.The only prayer Elena had in that moment was that Mia would be okay. The stress of this situation couldn't be good for her or the ba

  • THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: Marry To Rival's Son    YOU ARE UNDER ARREST FOR THE MURDER OF MRS. CASSANDRA MEYER

    Chapter 160"Agreed," Ethan said. "And I want to do it today, before they hear it from the press or whoever."They drove to Stefan's house, where they found everyone gathered in the back garden. Mia was sitting on Stefan's lap, both of them giggling at something on their phone while James sat nearby with Sienna, the two of them having what looked like an intense conversation about something."Elena!" Mia squealed the moment she saw her best friend.She immediately tried to stand up and run over, but Stefan caught her around the waist."You need to be careful," he lectured gently. "Remember what the doctor said about taking it easy."Mia rolled her eyes at her overprotective husband but slowed down as she walked to Elena."You're absolutely glowing," Mia said with a teasing smile that made Elena blush immediately.While Elena and Mia hugged, Ethan walked over to greet Stefan with their usual handshake and back pat."I have something to show you," Elena said to Mia, holding out her left

  • THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: Marry To Rival's Son    THEY DESERVE TO HEAR IT FROM US, AND SOON

    Chapter 159Ethan threw on his clothes as fast as humanly possible, his hands shaking slightly as he buttoned his shirt. He leaned down and kissed Elena quickly, tasting the worry on her lips."I'm coming with you," Elena said, starting to get out of bed."No," Ethan said firmly, gently pushing her back down. "Let me handle this. My father can be... difficult when he's angry. I don't want you to have to deal with more of his attitude today."Elena watched him go, her stomach churning with anxiety because she knows exactly what Samuel Meyer was capable of.Through the thin walls of the apartment, she could hear muffled voices from the living room, Ethan's measured tone and Samuel's deeper, more aggressive one.Downstairs, Samuel stood with his arms crossed, his entire body radiating fury. His usually perfect hair was slightly disheveled, like he had been running his hands through it, and his expensive suit looked so clean and polished. He'd always look neat, always."What is it I'm hea
