“What do you want to talk about?” Evelyn asked impatiently. Her arms were folded tightly across her chest, her body leaned back in the wooden chair as if she was ready to leave any moment. They were sitting in a quiet café near the hospital, not too far from where their father was lying in a ward, battling for his life. Evelyn hadn’t wanted to follow Emily here, but something in her had given in—curiosity, maybe, or the hidden need to hear what her stepsister wanted to say.

Emily sat opposite her, staring at the untouched glass of juice in front of her. She drew in a deep breath, pressing her fingers gently against her forehead, as though she had been carrying a heavy headache. Her heart felt heavier than her head. So much had happened in so short a time—Mrs. Katherine was in prison, their father was on life support, and here was Evelyn, sitting across her, burning with hostility.

Emily looked at her sister, her eyes soft but filled with questions. Evelyn’s face was hard, her lips pre

  • The Beautiful Wife Of Mr Rowland    Chapter 141: The Wedding Day

    The church was filled with soft light, golden rays streaming through the tall glass windows. The air smelled of fresh flowers...white lilies, roses, and baby’s breath lined the pews, their petals glowing gently under the glow of the chandeliers. Every corner of the hall seemed to breathe elegance and peace.A quiet hush filled the hall, broken only by the low sound of the piano playing a slow, tender melody. The guests, dressed in their finest clothes, sat quietly in their places as they waited for the bride. Everyone knew this was no ordinary wedding. The Rowland name carried weight, and this ceremony was not just about love...it was history in the making.At the altar, Denovon Rowland stood tall. His black tuxedo fit him perfectly, the sharp lines highlighting his broad shoulders and strong frame. His face was calm, almost unreadable to those watching, but his eyes betrayed a restlessness. He kept them fixed on the door at the far end of the long aisle. His fingers curled slightly a

    “Denovon shouldn’t drink tonight,” Sophia said firmly, her eyes narrowing as she watched Mason pass with two large bottles of wine in his hands. He was heading straight toward the corner where Denovon and others sat together.Mason paused, looking at her in surprise. Then he nodded, instantly understanding her meaning, and quietly turned away with the bottles.“Why shouldn’t he drink tonight?” Grandfather Gregory asked suddenly, his voice strong though aged, as if he truly didn’t understand what Sophia had just said.Sophia turned her head slowly to him, her tone calm and respectful. “Of course he shouldn’t drink, Father. Tomorrow is the wedding. He can’t show up drunk. It’s his day, the most important of his life. He should be clear-minded and steady.”Gregory let out a scornful laugh, shaking his head. “Do you really think those two small bottles of wine can make him drunk? Denovon is not a weak man.”Sophia’s lips pressed into a thin line, but she didn’t give in. “They’re big bottl

    The morning light filtered softly into the villa, spilling across the polished floor and brushing against the curtains. The room was quiet, warm, filled with the gentle rhythm of two hearts that had found each other. Denovon stirred awake, his arm instinctively reaching for Emily. She lay beside him, already awake, watching him with a quiet smile that made his chest tighten.Tomorrow was their wedding. The thought alone carried weight, excitement, and a strange kind of fear that came with such happiness. “You’re awake early,” Denovon murmured, his voice low and heavy from sleep, yet warm as it wrapped around her like a blanket.Emily smiled faintly, her eyes glowing. “I couldn’t sleep longer. Tomorrow is… everything.”His lips curved into a small smile, though his gaze lingered on her longer than usual, as though he wanted to carve the sight of her into his memory. He leaned forward, brushing a tender kiss across her forehead. “Tomorrow is only the beginning.”Tears threatened to ri

    The room was dim, the curtains drawn tight so no light from outside could slip in. A small lamp on the table gave off a weak glow, throwing long shadows across the walls. The air was heavy, stale, and thick with secrets no one outside these walls could imagine.An old man sat in a wooden chair, leaning heavily on his cane. His back was bent with age, but his eyes were sharp and cold, filled with hatred that had burned for many years. His face was wrinkled, his lips pressed tightly together, and every movement he made carried the weight of anger that refused to die.Across from him stood a young man, tall and restless. His fists were clenched at his sides, his chest rising and falling quickly as though he was too eager to sit still. His eyes burned with the same hatred as the old man’s, and his jaw was tight as if he were ready to bite through steel.The old man broke the silence with a voice that cut through the air like a knife.“Tell me,” he asked, his tone deep and commanding. “Did

    Leo pushed the heavy office door open without knocking, his footsteps carrying the lazy confidence of a man who rarely took anything seriously. But his face told another story. His brows were drawn together, his jaw clenched tightly. His whole expression burned with anger as he walked in and sat down opposite Denovon.“What’s up, man,” Leo greeted, but the frown stayed carved on his face.Denovon raised his head, observing him quietly. He noticed the unusual tension in Leo’s eyes. “What’s wrong? It didn’t go well?” he asked in a calm voice, though curiosity sharpened his tone.Leo hissed loudly, the sound sharp with annoyance. His veins stood out on his forehead, showing just how angry he really was. “You won’t believe this. She kept me waiting for more than an hour,” he spat out, rubbing his forehead as if the memory alone was giving him a headache.“For real?” Denovon asked, letting out a laugh as he looked at Leo. His friend’s irritation was as clear as day, and it amused him.“Yes

    “Sir, here is another package sent,” George said as soon as he stepped into Denovon’s office, his face tight and cold. He looked angry....angry at the package, angry at the audacity of whoever had sent it.Denovon slowly lifted his head from his laptop, his sharp eyes narrowing as a frown crept across his face. “From the same sender?” he asked in his calm but deep voice.“Yes, sir,” George replied, his tone clipped.Denovon leaned back in his chair, his lips curving into a faint, dangerous smirk. “Open it. Let’s see what it is this time.” His voice carried an edge of amusement, though there was nothing funny in his eyes. Whoever was sending these packages, whoever thought they could play this game with him...He silently promised it would not end well for them.For the past few days, strange packages had been delivered one after the other. Threatening messages wrapped up like gifts. Denovon hadn’t cared much at first. To him, it was like a buzzing fly circling around...annoying but not
