The Governor's Wife Chapter 32
As the space between us and the other officials widened, the murmurs began.I leaned closer, barely breathing. “Sebastian… let go. You’re hurting me.”His grip didn’t ease. Not even a fraction. The guards trailed three meters behind us now, far enough not to hear, close enough to pretend they weren’t watching. I knew they’d been trained to read moments like this, to decide when to intervene. And they were choosing not to.“Sebastian, I said let go—”“Just shut up for a second, Lorelie.”He snapped the words over his shoulder, turning just enough for me to catch the look in his furious eyes. It froze me mid‑step, the air catching in my throat.I faced forward again, biting down on my tongue to keep from saying anything else. My free hand curled into a fist at my side as he dragged me down the corridor.We didn’t stop until we reached the SUV waiting outside. The moment we approached, one of the men rushed ahead and yanked the door open. Sebastian didn’t say a word, just flicked his fin

Once inside, I stood near the doorway, eyes scanning the room. “I think I left it near the sink. Could you please check? I’ll wait out here… I just feel embarrassed rummaging through things like that.”Adam looked unsure but eventually nodded. “I’ll be quick.”As soon as the door closed behind him, I turned on my heel and walked with urgency—only looking back once—to find someone. Thankfully, a janitor, standing near a cart stacked with cleaning supplies, looked up at me with surprise.“Excuse me,” I said breathlessly, trying to sound nervous and awkward. “I’m sorry to bother you… I...um...I need to find the control room”She blinked. “Security room?”“Yes, please,” I said, lowering my voice and leaning slightly closer. “I’m a guest. A relative of the Governor. I… I’m just trying to find my wallet, I forgot but I’m too shy to ask him directly.”Still confused, she pointed down the hallway. “There. Next to the service elevator.”“Oh, thank you.”I walked fast, heart hammering against m

I took a deep breath, pulled out my lipstick, and retouched my makeup with trembling hands. A little powder to hide the paleness, a little color to keep myself from looking like a ghost. I smoothed my hair, forcing the corners of my lips into a practiced, sweet curve.But just as I turned to leave, a thought stopped me. If I wanted to survive this place—truly survive—I needed more than poise. I needed to be careful. Smart. And strategic. I had no allies here. No one I could trust with a secret, let alone a plan. If I wanted answers, I had to start acting like someone no one would suspect.And that meant leaving a trail for myself.Quietly, I reached for one of my diamond earrings—a gift from Sylvia, of course, presented with a smile that never quite reached her eyes. I twisted it off and glanced around. There. Just beneath the curve of the marble sink, nestled between a pipe and the wall. A tiny crevice.I crouched, heart still hammering, and tucked the earring inside. If I ever neede

“Excuse me,” I said sweetly, glancing at Sylvia. “I’ll just use the restroom.”She paused for a beat, eyes scanning my face. “Don’t take too long,” she replied with a pleasant smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes.I gave a small nod, turning away—and instantly felt the weight of four pairs of eyes trailing behind me.Leon and Adam flanked me, their steps were enough to give me space. The two other guards followed a few paces back behind them. I walked steadily, pretending not to feel the way my skin itched under the scrutiny. Every hallway corner, every mirror, every step—they were watching. Always watching.Gosh, all this for a restroom break.When we reached the restroom, they let me be. There was no one inside since all the cubicles were open. Leon and Adam assured me this was the private restroom used by important guests—separate from the staff quarters. That gave me a sense of relief. At least I had a moment to breathe.Once I was done with my business, I went to the sink, sett

I pushed those thoughts at the back of my mind and focused on how the press didn't stop following us as we moved toward the main building where the luncheon was held. Guards lined the path, creating a narrow corridor for us to walk through. I caught a glimpse of Leon and Adam a few steps behind, eyes scanning the crowd like hawks.But it wasn’t the guards or the crowd that made my heart pound—it was the sudden swell of cameras and voices trailing us getting louder.“Mrs. Kingston, how did you and Governor Sebastian meet?”“Are you really the youngest daughter of Mayor Victor Montgomery of Rosehill City“Are children in the picture soon?”“Can we expect a sit-down interview with you both?”“What’s your biggest challenge so far as the new Mrs. Kingston?”I felt the weight of their curiosity pressing in. Sebastian didn’t answer. He just kept walking, his face unreadable as always. I, on the other hand, knew what was expected.So, I smiled again. I angled my face slightly toward him so th

Lorelie’s POVIt had been a week since the news of my marriage to Sebastian Kingston resurfaced to the public. What surprised me most wasn’t the reaction—it was how they managed to keep the news for 3 weeks from the public. It was admirable, really, how they could control the media so well, keeping it from spreading like wildfire. No gossip, no headlines until today.Now, I stood beside him at the Inauguration of South Valemont’s newest project—an ambitious green infrastructure designed to boost the state’s environmental image. A ribbon-cutting ceremony, a crowd of press, and a row of seats filled with political figures, donors, officials and supporters.Sebastian in his tailored coat, polo shirt and dark slacks held the scissors with the grace of someone who had done this countless times. Flashes went off. Cameras clicked. But he didn’t even flinch.I stood on his right side, dressed in a pale beige dress that reached my knee. A soft smile was etched on my face—practiced. I made smal
