Alina stared at the tray before her with empty eyes.

The chicken soup was still steaming. White rice neatly arranged. Warm tea in a fine porcelain cup.

But she wasn't hungry.

Not after the conversation with Emma. Not after hearing the words "divorce" and "custody battle" spoken aloud for the first time.

But she remembered Mrs. Helen's message. "Ma'am must eat everything."

And Mrs. Helen had taken a huge risk for her. The woman deserved cooperation, at least in this.

So Alina ate.

The warm soup

  • The Billionaire's Insignificant Wife    Confirmation

    The night crawled slowly for everyone who waited.Alina sat in the living room of Thomas and Nora's house, unable to sleep, unable to stay still. She paced to the window every few minutes, staring into the darkness as if an answer might appear from within it.Renee sat on the sofa, laptop open on her lap, eyes fixed on the screen that occasionally flickered with incoming message notifications."Any word?" Alina asked for the third time in an hour."Not yet," Renee answered, her voice staying calm even as she herself began to feel the tension building. "The team out there is checking Blackwood Enterprises' office, David's apartment, and a few other locations that might be relevant."Nora brought in warm tea that no one touched, just set on the table as a gesture of care with nowhere else to go.The clock read two in the morning when Renee's phone finally buzzed.She answered quickly, listening with a serious expression, nodding occasionally even though the person on the other end could

  • The Billionaire's Insignificant Wife    The Hostage Call

    In the small wooden house in New Zealand, Alina had just finished helping Nora wash the dishes when the phone Salvatore had given her buzzed in her pocket.Unknown number.She hesitated for a moment before answering, her heart pounding for no clear reason."Hello?"The voice on the other end froze her whole body."Alina."Daniel.Her breath caught in her throat. The hand holding the phone began to tremble, memories she'd tried so hard to bury suddenly surging back—that voice, that tone, the way he said her name as if it still belonged to him."How did you—""So it's true. Wasn't a waste tracing the number from Richard's call a few weeks ago," Daniel cut in before Alina could finish her sentence. "You've been gone a long time. When are you coming back?"Alina wanted to hang up. Her hand had already moved toward the button.But Daniel's next words stopped her."Don't you want to know how your brother's doing? David Hayes?"Alina froze. "What do you mean?""Your brother," Daniel said, hi

    David arrived at the office in a neat shirt. Briefcase over his shoulder. A small smile for the receptionist in the lobby.He had no idea today would be different.His supervisor called him in before ten o'clock."There's a sudden assignment," the man said, his eyes not quite meeting David's. "A branch out of town. Special training for young management candidates."David blinked. "This fast? I haven't even been here a full month.""That's exactly why you were chosen." His supervisor smiled, but the smile felt too stiff. "Mr. Blackwood himself recommended your name."The name flattered him a little. Made him a little suspicious too, though he didn't know why."When do I need to leave?""Now. The car's already waiting in the basement."The car provided by the company wasn't an ordinary company car.David realized it the moment he got in—tinted windows, two men in black suits up front, no company logo anywhere."Is this really a company car?" he asked, trying to sound casual."Just have

    Daniel's office was filled with blue light from the rows of monitors lining the wall. It had been three days since Junior's outburst calling Alina's name, and since then Daniel had barely touched his own bed.Vincent called close to midnight, his voice carrying a different tone than usual—more cautious, as if aware of the weight of the information he was about to deliver."I found something," he said. "But you're not going to like it."Daniel straightened in his chair. "Talk.""The ship that took your wife isn't just any ship," Vincent continued. "I've confirmed it through three different sources. That ship belongs to Salvatore Russo."The name hit Daniel's ears like a blunt blow."The Russo mafia? How could my wife be involved with someone like that?""It's not your wife who's involved with him," Vincent answered sharply. "It's Adrian Lawson who's involved. And from what I hear, their relationship isn't an ordinary one. Russo owes him a huge debt of gratitude."Daniel's jaw hardened.

  • The Billionaire's Insignificant Wife    A Night That's Never Peaceful

    Elsewhere, it was still daylight.Alina sat on the small porch of Thomas and Nora's house, a basket of cream and light blue yarn resting in her lap.Nora had taught her to knit a few days ago, at first just to pass the time, but now it had become something Alina looked forward to every evening. Her fingers were still stiff, occasionally miscounting stitches, but slowly a pair of small shoes were starting to take shape from the yarn.Baby shoes.Alina looked at her work, a small smile appearing on her lips. There was something calming about this activity, her hands busy while her mind could wander without having to stay constantly alert like the days before."Very good for a beginner," Nora said, sitting in the chair beside her while sipping warm tea. "It's almost done.""Thanks to you," Alina answered, smiling sincerely. "I never imagined I could make something like this."Her routine had started to form over the past few days. Mornings helping Nora prepare breakfast and tidy the hous

  • The Billionaire's Insignificant Wife    Open Wounds

    Daniel arrived at the mansion at exactly ten at night, his steps quick toward Junior's room the moment he passed through the front door.The news he'd received from the attending doctor made his chest churn between hope and worry. Junior's fever had started to drop. The child was starting to show signs of consciousness.The moment he entered the room, Daniel found Junior sitting up weakly on the bed, propped against a pile of pillows, his face still pale but his eyes now open, though listless."Junior." Daniel hurried closer, genuine relief showing on his face. "You're awake, son."But before Daniel could touch him, Junior's eyes moved quickly around the room, searching for something."Mama?" his small voice was hoarse, but full of hope. "Where's Mama?"Clarissa, sitting on the other side of the bed, immediately rose, her face trying to look relieved. "Mama's here, sweetheart."But Junior instead shrank back slightly against the pillows, his eyes widening with something resembling fea
