Hart's eyes were locked onto Ethan's.

There was a warning flashing across the security screen.

ONE OF YOUR OWN WILL BETRAY YOU.

Ethan stood a couple of feet away from Hart. His face was expressionless.

"You can't really believe that," he said.

Hart didn't reply straight away.

"Where were you when the vault was opened?"

"I was with you," Ethan replied frowning.

"Before that?"

"I was at the security station checking the system."

"Convenient."

Lucy looked between them both. She'd never seen Hart a

    "Explain why you were standing with those two men who destroyed our families."Hart's voice was eerily calm.Ethan stared at the photo in his hands.Lucy looked between the two men."Tell us the truth Ethan."He swallowed."This photo was taken when I was seventeen. I was with my dad who worked at Matthews Enterprises. I didn't know what they were talking about."Hart raised his eyebrows."Why didn't you tell me this when I employed you?""I recognised my dad but I didn't recognise Adrian until recently.“That doesn't explain why you kept quiet.”Ethan looked down."I was scared you would find out what my dad did."Madam Matthews stepped forward."What did your dad do?"Ethan looked up."He helped organise your fathers disappearance."A silence fell over the room.Lucy felt a knot in her stomach."So you knew he was alive?""I knew he had been taken but I didn't know where they were keeping him.""Who took him?"Ethan hesitated."My dad and two men from Mr Matthew."Hart stepped closer

  • The Billioniare Secret Student Wife   Chapter 34 — The Man Who Never Died

    Lucy stared wide-eyed at Ethan."Taken? Taken where?"Ethan looked away."I was working for Matthews Enterprises when your father came to talk to Mr. Matthew. He had uncovered some issues with the company and was desperate to get the proof to somewhere safe.""Why didn't he go to the police?" Hart asked."He didn't trust them. He had been told by someone that they knew he was going to expose them."Lucy grabbed her desk."Now where is he?""I don't know.""You're joking, right? You've known this all along and let me believe they were dead!"Ethan didn't argue."I was told he had passed away. I only recently found out there was evidence that he may still be alive."Hart's eyes narrowed."Who told you?""Someone anonymous. They sent me a photo 3 weeks ago."Ethan pulled out his phone showing them.Lucy took the phone, her hands shaking.It was an old photo of a man sat in a room. His face was partially covered but she recognised his nose shape and the watch on his wrist.Her father's wa

She'd never seen Hart act like this towards Ethan. They had worked together for years, and he trusted him with almost everything."We should let him explain," she suggested.Hart shot her a look."I am."Ethan took a deep breath. "Somebody has been messing around with the security system. They could have put that message in there to make you doubt me.""Prove I shouldn't."Ethan reached into his jacket.Hart instantly took a step forward."Don't."Ethan paused."It's a flash drive. I found it under the security panel

    The words reverberated in the vault.“It was I who commanded them to be killed.”Lucy couldn't breathe.She looked through the tiny security camera above the door at Madam Matthews.“No.”Madam Matthews was very frightened.That recording is a fake”.Hart moved toward her.“Then explain it.”“I can't.”“You'd better.”Lucy shook her head and tears began to roll from her eyes.“You were the ones who believed in my parents.”“I know.”“And you slaughtered them?”“No!” Madam Matthews' voice broke. “My attempt was to save them”.Hart stared at her.So why is your voice telling me otherwise?”Madam Matthews turned to the recording device.“It's because some one edited that recording.”Lucy wiped her beautiful tears.“Who?”Before Madam Matthews could answer, the intercom came alive again.The vault was full of laughter, a man's laughter.“You're getting closer.”Hart immediately recognized the voice.“Adrian.”“Very good.”Hart's jaw tightened.“Open the door.”“No.”“What do you want?”“L

    Hart looked at the message on his cell phone.CHECK YOUR COMPANY'S MAIN VAULT.His expression hardened.“It's Matthews Enterprises we're going to.”It was immediately, that Lucy was beside him. “I'm coming.”“No.”She wrapped her arms around herself. “Hart.”“What do we walk into? I don't know.”“And I do?”He took a moment to glance at her.Lucy spoke softly. If there is some secret that my father was interested in, and he left it behind, I have a right to know what it is, this secret involves my family.Hart sighed.“You're becoming impossible.”There was a slight smile on her lips.“You married me.”This was the first time on Hart's face that night the tension had relaxed.“I know.”He stretched out his arm and extended his right hand to her.“Just because, that's why I'm bringing you with me.”Madam Matthews only looked on in silence.“There is something else you should know.”Hart turned.“What?”“Just the key won't open the vault.”Lucy frowned.“What more is there?”Madam Matth

    The study door began to open gradually.Hart promptly pushed Lucy to the rear.“Stay back.”The door gaped open.A man entered the room.Lucy saw him immediately.“Ethan?”Regrettably, Hart looked at the assistant.Where have you been on the planet?”Ethan was gasping for breath, panting slightly torn shirt.The thief struck me at the store.Hart's expression hardened.So how did Adrian get your phone?I don't know, he must have taken it before I escaped.”Lucy stepped closer.“Are you hurt?”Ethan gave a shake to his head.“I'll be fine.”He studied him carefully.“After the attack,?”I followed one of the men; he took me to a disused building, but when I arrived, all was silent.Ethan examined the pictures on the desk.His face changed.“Where did you obtain that?”Lucy held it up.My parents, Hart's father, and me.”Ethan went silent.Hart noticed.“You've experienced this before.”Ethan slowly nodded.“Once.”“When?”“It was presented to me by your father a few years ago.”Hart's
