Amber sat quietly at the edge of Cedric's bed after taking her shower, staring at the unfamiliar darkness of his room.

Five years ago, she had known everything about him, or at least, she had thought she did.

She knew how he took his coffee, which side of the bed he preferred, how much he hated being woken up early, and how he would rather skip breakfast entirely than eat something he didn't like.

She knew the boy who used to sneak out with her when they were teenagers, the young man who had o

  • The Cripple CEO's Soldier Wife: Touch My Husband And Die    An Angry Wife

    “CEDRIC!” Amber's scream tore through the mansion as she ran toward the staircase so fast that Lily barely managed to keep up with her, while Victoria and Elena rushed forward from the opposite direction. Cedric's wheelchair had overturned near the bottom of the stairs, his body lying awkwardly against the floor, one arm trapped beneath him as the shattered pieces of a decorative vase scattered across the steps. For one terrifying second, Amber couldn't breathe... Then Victoria dropped beside her son. “Cedric! Son, are you okay?” Elena was already kneeling on his other side, her hands trembling as she carefully reached for his shoulder. “Brother, are you hurt? Cedric, please say something.” Cedric groaned, his face twisted with pain as he tried to move. “I’m fine,” he managed, though his voice was strained. “I just... lost control of the chair.” Amber's eyes immediately snapped upward, and her gaze landed on Julian, who was standing halfway up the staircase with his fac

    Julian's face turned red. “Shut up!” Cedric's voice remained painfully calm. “She chose me, Julian. Get over it.” “Shut up!” Julian shouted again. Cedric didn't even flinch. “She returned after five years and married me the same day.” Julian's breathing became heavier, his anger quickly overtaking whatever restraint he had left. Cedric watched him closely. “You can spend the rest of your life trying to take her from me,” he said calmly, “but you will never become the man she wants.” Julian's fists clenched. “You think you're better than me?” Cedric shook his head. “Yes.” A faint smile appeared on his lips. “And I'm also the man she loves.”The sentence struck Julian harder than any insult could have. He stepped forward angrily, his voice rising as he spat, “You're nothing but a cripple sitting in a chair!” Cedric's eyes turned ice-cold. “Then why are you so afraid of me?” Julian froze. For a moment, neither man moved. Then the front door opened downstairs, and voices drifted

    By the time Amber returned to Sterling Mansion, it was almost evening. The shopping bags filled nearly the entire back seat, but the women inside seemed far more interested in reliving the events of the afternoon than in the expensive purchases surrounding them. Elena had spent most of the drive home laughing about the incident at the mall, occasionally repeating the expression on Cassandra's face when she discovered that the entire place belonged to Amber's maternal family. Victoria had laughed too. Not once or twice. But again and again. It was the kind of laughter Amber hadn't heard from her since returning, and that was exactly why she kept making Elena tell the story again. “So then you should have seen her face,” Elena said between bursts of laughter. “She actually thought she could have us thrown out!” Lily laughed beside her. “And then Amber fired the employee.” “He deserved it,” Amber said matter-of-factly. Victoria shook her head, still smiling. “I can't believe you d

    A familiar voice suddenly stopped them. “Well, this is unexpected.” Victoria froze, and Elena's smile disappeared immediately. Amber noticed the change in both women and turned around. A group of people stood near one of the luxury boutiques, and at the center was a beautiful young woman dressed in an expensive designer outfit. Cassandra Sterling! She was one of Cedric's relatives and had always considered herself one of the most important young women in the Sterling family. Beside her stood her mother, Diana Sterling, surrounded by several other relatives and acquaintances. Cassandra's eyes landed on Victoria, and a mocking smile slowly appeared on her face. “Well, well, well.” Victoria immediately lowered her eyes without saying anything, but Cassandra walked toward them. “I didn't know you still went shopping.” Victoria remained silent, and Cassandra looked her up and down with obvious contempt. “Actually, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. With Cedric becoming useless, s

  • The Cripple CEO's Soldier Wife: Touch My Husband And Die    Let's Go Shopping

    The previous day in the mansion had been filled with arguments, accusations, and the shock of Amber and Cedric's sudden marriage, and by nightfall, everyone had been exhausted enough to retreat to their respective rooms. But even this morning, tension continued to fill the mansion. Victoria avoided Margaret's gaze, and especially in the way Elena had barely spoken since breakfast. Amber noticed all of it. She had been trained to read a room before entering it, to recognize discomfort before someone spoke, and to observe the smallest changes in posture and expression. After spending only a day in the Sterling household, she had already realized something that bothered her deeply. Victoria and Elena had learned how to disappear. They were physically present, but they made themselves as small as possible. They spoke softly, walked carefully, never interrupted anyone, never challenged Margaret, and whenever someone said something cruel, they swallowed it. Amber hated it!

  • The Cripple CEO's Soldier Wife: Touch My Husband And Die    Breakfast With the Sterlings

    The next morning, Amber woke to sunlight slipping through the curtains. For several seconds, she remained still, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling as she tried to remember where she was, but the memories of yesterday came rushing back almost immediately. She was married. She had actually married Cedric. Goodness!A smile slowly spread across her face as the realization settled over her, and she turned her head toward the other side of the bed, only to find it empty. Amber immediately sat up. “Cedric?” she called, but there was no answer. She pushed the covers aside and got out of bed, still wearing the loose shirt she had slept in, then glanced around the room and noticed that the bathroom door was open. Before she could wonder where he had gone, she heard voices coming from downstairs. Amber quickly changed, tied her hair into a messy ponytail, and headed downstairs, still trying to shake the last traces of sleep from her mind.The moment she reached the dining room, she stoppe
