THE WIFE HE NEVER HAD, NOW HE REGRETS IT I'M READY TO TELL YOU EVERYTHING
ScarlettThe next day, Adrian and I went to DS prison to see Aurelia. Seated at the visitors' arena, Adrian and I waited for the guard to bring Aurelia in.When the door opened, Aurelia froze in place.“I told you I don't want any visitors!“ she screamed, wrenching against the guard's grip but to no avail.“I just need ten minutes of your time,“ I said, proud of how steady my voice came out.“Five. And not a second longer. Then I'll sit down and listen to what you have to say.““Fine. Five minutes, it is.“Sinking low into the chair across from me, Aurelia asked, “Why are you here? Did you come to lie to my face about the photo?““No. The day Ethan got caught, Cassandra Mills was the person who found him. When I talked to Ethan, he said by the time Cassandra arrived, Durian was gone.“Aurelia let out a shaky breath. “Why didn't you tell me this earlier?“Watching her fall apart should have satisfied me. Instead, I felt pity for her.“Because I thought I could find him, and I still do.

ScarlettThe grandfather clock's hands hanging by the bedroom wall crawled past ten. Yet, Adrian still wasn't back home. I had called him twice, but each time, the call had gone to voicemail.I lunged for my phone when it finally buzzed against the nightstand and answered. “Adrian?““It's me, Pete. Did I catch you at a bad time?“My heart sank low. “No. What is it?““It's about Durian,“ Pete revealed. “I'm still unable to find him. I think it's time we declared the kid missing.“Moving to sit at the edge of the bed, I replied, “Not yet.““Why? Are you worried Aurelia might change her statement if she finds out? The public won't believe her anyway.“That was true but also wasn't what I was worried about. My grip tightened around the phone. “I'm worried she'll think I lied to her. I had promised to keep her son safe if she helped us out. For now, keep looking. There aren't many places a child Durian's age can hide.“Then, I heard the sound of the front door downstairs opening. Adrian.
THE WIFE HE NEVER HAD, NOW HE REGRETS IT THERE WAS AN ACCOMPLICE
EthanConfusion masked my face when I saw Cedric Denver standing outside our cell door with a smug smile on his lips.“Ethan Vale, you look more comfortable in this holding cell than in your office,” he said. “We should make sure you don't get released on bail.”I tightened my fist, holding myself back from smashing this man's head against the iron bars.“Why are you here?” I asked.“To see Nathan, of course. I have no business with you.” Cedric turned to the security guard beside him. “Can I speak with the man privately outside his cell?”The guard lowered his head. “I-I'm afraid you can't do that, sir. I'm sorry.”He let out a heavy sigh. “It can't be helped, then. Please, wait outside.”The guard bowed, then turned and left.“To what do I owe this unexpected visit, Cedric Denver?” Nathan asked. “I don't remember us being close friends.”“Well, desperate times call for desperate measures. You're already in a holding cell, Nathan. Your chances of coming out of there are zero to none,
THE WIFE HE NEVER HAD, NOW HE REGRETS IT STOP ACTING PREDICTABLY
ETHAN“Damn it!” I screamed, banging my hands against the metallic bar, unable to wrap my head around the fact that I was stuck in a holding cell with three smelly men.A cellmate threw a stick at the back of my head. “Shut up. Are you the only person here? Can't you see the rest of us are trying to get some sleep around here?” Turning back, I glanced between the stick and the three men.“Who threw that stick at me?” I asked.Fatso laughed, picking his nose with his index finger while lying across the ground. “It was me. What are you going to do about it, rich boy? Get cozy with us in here because even your money is not going to be enough to get you out.” The two idiots beside him burst into fits of laughter, making my blood boil. I wasn't going to stand here and listen to these low-life prisoners, who I was far better than, mock me. Slowly dragging my feet across the ground, I picked up the stick and stabbed Fatso's foot.A loud scream tore out of his throat as blood gushed from h
THE WIFE HE NEVER HAD, NOW HE REGRETS IT STIGMATIZED AND BULLIED
AdrianWhen we got back home, Scarlett didn't utter a single word. She moved straight up to the bedroom, lay down on the bed, and pulled a blanket over herself, and I gave her all the space she needed because I understood her frustration.She had been ready to pour everything into this project in honor of her late father, Alistair, only to realize she would be finishing it for the very same man who had stolen it from him.Crossing the room, I sank low onto the bed beside her.She spoke first. “I keep wondering why Cedric made my father's idea known to me in the first place. If he wanted it all to himself, why get me involved in it at all?“The answer already slipped out of my lips. “Because a collaboration between Denver Corporation and LG Group would create enough buzz to make the project the center of attraction. It was nothing more than a marketing strategy to Cedric.“A humorless chuckle escaped her lips. “Right. His plan was so flawless I fell for it without batting an eye. I fee

ChaseMy words hung in my throat. “Are you saying that...““Our father had a hand in Alistair's death? Pretty much,” she concluded. “The blood he sheds is also on our hands, so what good are you hoping to gain by acting holier than thou? Just do what you're told for your own good.“Unable to stand what I was hearing, I stormed out of the living room, slipped into the front driver's seat, and drove off with no location in mind.I had driven for about forty minutes before the car came to a halt. While punching the steering wheel in frustration, a loud scream tore out of my throat.I always knew my father was a man driven by greed, but I never imagined he was heartless enough to plot against killing someone just to covet his idea.The mere realization that I knew nothing about this sickened me because no one would believe that. Especially not Scarlett. She would come to the conclusion on her own that I knew the truth but kept it hidden, and I couldn't even blame her for that.A soft knoc

ScarlettAfter finalizing the inheritance, I stepped out of the villa with Mr. Hale walking beside me.“We'll arrange the blind date as soon as possible,” he said. “Does tomorrow evening work for you?”“Perfectly.”“The location will be sent to you shortly.”As Mr. Hale’s car pulled away, I turned

ScarlettWe immediately headed out. Durian stood in the middle of the room, his board game overturned at his feet, pieces scattered everywhere. The TV remote lay broken on the floor nearby. Aurelia stood beside him.“What happened here?” I asked, my voice calm, which seemed to agitate them more.Au

Scarlett“Mrs. Scarlett, I've reviewed the documents,” Lawyer Leonard said over the phone. “If you're certain you want to proceed with the inheritance agreement, we can finalize everything today.”“I’m certain,” I replied, staring at my reflection in the vanity mirror. I looked younger, healthier,
THE WIFE HE NEVER HAD, NOW HE REGRETS IT YOU'RE NOT YOUR HUSBAND'S LEGAL WIFE
Scarlett“You're not your husband's legal wife, Mrs. Scarlett,” the doctor informs me. “So we cannot authorize the use of Mr. Ethan’s medical insurance for your treatment.”My heart plummeted. What?“Doctor, there seems to be a mis–” I broke off, coughing into the blood-stained handkerchief clutche
