Hart looked at the message on his mobile phone.

You have 12 hours.

For several seconds, he didn't move.

Then another came along.

Be careful, Mr. Matthew; choose wisely: between your empire and your wife.

Hart's eyes hardened.

You are wrong!

He typed the words.

The answer was quick to arrive.

**Am I?**

A photograph followed.

Lucy was sitting on the floor, her back against the wall. She had a few tears in her eyes and her hair was disheveled.

Hart's chest tightened.

He zoomed in.

    Hart looked at the message on his mobile phone.You have 12 hours.For several seconds, he didn't move.Then another came along.Be careful, Mr. Matthew; choose wisely: between your empire and your wife.Hart's eyes hardened.You are wrong!He typed the words.The answer was quick to arrive.**Am I?**A photograph followed.Lucy was sitting on the floor, her back against the wall. She had a few tears in her eyes and her hair was disheveled.Hart's chest tightened.He zoomed in.There wasn't any sign of her being hurt.The only thing that kept him cool was that.His phone rang."Mr. Matthew."The same warped tone."Say what you want!""I already did."You need to have my company.I want you to break it!Hart had his back to the desk."Then you'll let her go," he replied.If you follow the instructions precisely."And if I don't?"A pause.Another photo will be sent to you.Hart's jaw tightened."Don't touch her."The man chuckled in a quiet manner.“You're just starting to get it.”The

  • The Billioniare Secret Student Wife    Chapter 25 – The Truth About My Father

    Lucy couldn't take her eyes off the picture.The face of her father loomed back at her from a time she could not forget.But it wasn't his face that frightened her.The man who was standing by him.Hart.Younger but definitely him.Lucy nodded her head."No..."She studied the photo once more.Perhaps the woman I was seeing was seeing things.Perhaps it was a rewrite by Adrian.Perhaps this was just one more ploy.However, the photo seemed authentic.Too real.She was holding and shaking her fingers.Why would my dad know Hart?She whispered to herself.No response was given.The only thing that she could hear was her own breathing.The door suddenly opened.Adrian walked back in the house.Lucy jumped up and looked around.You told me that my parents were murdered," he said."Yes.""How?"Adrian pulled a chair up to her and sat.Your father found something out that he shouldn't have known."What?"He worked as an accountant at one of the companies involved in my family.Lucy frowned.

    Hart didn't breathe.His gaze was on the unoccupied side of the bed.The blanket was still warm.But Lucy was gone."Lucy?"No answer.He went around the bathroom.Empty.The balcony.Empty.His heart raced crazily."Lucy!"He went into the hall."Security!"Ethan came out of the other corridor in less than a few seconds."Sir?""Where is my wife?"Ethan's expression changed.“She was in your room.”"She isn't now.""What?"He was picked up on the shoulder by Hart.Lock up the house!Ethan hurriedly pulled out his cell phone.Everyone, Code Black, everybody stays at the estate.Throughout the mansion, the alarms started going off.The security guards went into the corridors.Hart ran downstairs."Check every exit!""Yes, sir!""Search the gardens!""Yes, sir!"“Look in the basement garage,”Ethan came in second."Sir, no one has come out the outside guards haven't seen anybody leave.She's still here, then.Hart stopped.His mind raced.Somebody had gone off with Lucy but not raised t

    Lucy stared at Hart.She was unable to take in what he just said for several seconds.“Are they going to kidnap me?”His fingers gripped her, firm, tight."Yes."Her heart started to beat rapidly."Who?""I don't know yet."But how is it possible to know?Hart's jaw tightened.“He or she who left that file knew exactly what he/she was doing.”He tightened his embrace and drew her to him."And I'm not going to wait until they make their move."Lucy swallowed."What are you going to do?""Protect you.""How?"His eyes hardened.“You shall never leave this mansion.”Lucy stared at him."What?""Until I know who is behind this, you're staying here."Hart, I'm in class."No.""My exams—""No.""My job—""I'll handle it."Lucy pulled her hand from his.“They can't shut me up in this house!”Hart looked at her.I don't want to control you.If only I could just tell you what I'm doing?I'm here to save YOU!His voice was suddenly loud and harsh.Lucy fell silent.Hart took a deep breath and t

  • The Billioniare Secret Student Wife   Chapter 22 – The Door Opened

    The bedroom door handle slowly turned.Lucy stopped breathing.Hart rushed forward and went to stand in front of her.One arm resting behind him, telling her to stay out of it.Everything about him had changed.The teasing husband of just a few moments was now gone.The ruthless CEO that everyone was afraid of stood in his place.The handle was moved again.Slowly.Hart's eyes narrowed.He looked over to the bedside table.His cellphone was there.No signal.Security system was still all off."Ethan," Hart whispered.Nothing.He pressed the intercom once again.Have everyone move to the east side of the building.Static answered him.Lucy held on to his back of his shirt."Hart..."He glanced over his shoulder."I'm here."What shall we do?"Stay behind me.""But—""Lucy."His voice softened."Please."That one word brought her to a halt.Hart was very rarely polite.She nodded."Okay."He looked back towards the door.The handle came to a stop.Silence.Five seconds passed.Then ten.

    Lucy remained motionless at the door to Hart's bedroom.The room was dominated by a king-sized bed, which was covered with dark wooden frames and luxurious grey silk sheets.She swallowed nervously.Is there any other bed?Hart shut the door after them."No."Lucy sighed.I wanted one to magically appear, said I.“There are no miracles, I don't do miracles.She crossed her arms."No?""No.""You've disappointed me."It was the first time that evening that Hart smiled.I will work more diligently when I go to work next morning.Lucy blinked.Was... was he joking?She pointed at him."You're smiling again.""I am.""And making jokes.""I'm adapting.""To what?"His eyes met hers.Life together with my wife.Lucy's cheeks got red.Lucy's cheeks turned red, immediately.She didn't wait long before she turned away without him noticing.Hart went to the wardrobe and grabbed a well-packed oversized black T-shirt.He gave it to her."Sleeping will be easier in this.Lucy studied the T-shirt."
