The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 240: Corrosion Takes Its Toll
[Alice's POV]The snap I had been waiting for didn't come.Instead, there was a different sound; not the shriek of a snapping cable, but a clank. Metallic. Mechanical. Coming from above me.I opened my eyes.Someone was at the anchor point. A figure in dark clothing, helmet, tactical harness — one of the security team. He had attached a secondary cable to the winch mechanism, a thick braided steel rope that ran back to a vehicle at the edge of the bridge. A winch truck. They had brought a winch truck, and they were running a stabilization line to my anchor point, trying to arrest the drop before the original cable failed entirely.And behind the security operator, pressing forward, shoving past another team member who w
The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 239: An Impossible Choice
[Alice's POV]I watched him go. I watched him reach the west anchor point, grab the cable with both hands, and shout something to the security team — instructions, commands, the voice of a man who had finally, irrevocably committed. I watched him wrap the cable around his forearms and pull, his legs bracing against the railing, his whole body straining against the weight of the woman hanging below.I watched Adam.He was standing where David had been, at the center of the bridge, looking at me. His face was a ruin — the composed CEO, the controlled strategist, completely and utterly shattered. He was shouting something, but the wind took the words, and all I could see was the shape of his mouth moving, the desperation in his eyes, his hands reaching toward me across seven meters of empty bridge.
The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 238: Suspended Reality
[Alice's POV]"I deserve him more than you," she shouted. "I've earned him. I've sacrificed for him. I've become what he needs. And you — you just existed, and it was enough. Just by being in the same room, just by breathing the same air, you were enough. And I hate you for it. I have hated you for it my entire life."The cable above me groaned again. Louder this time. I felt myself drop — a sudden, stomach-lurching fall of maybe ten centimeters, followed by a sickening swing as the cable oscillated. The river below seemed closer. The roar of the water seemed louder."David is coming," Lily said. "I can hear the cars reaching the bridge. And when he gets here, he's going to see exactly what I've arranged. The woman he'
The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 237: The Bridge Of Destiny
[Alice's POV]I was standing on a narrow metal platform; a maintenance walkway, maybe, or a section of grating bolted to the exterior of some kind of structure. To my left was open air and darkness. To my right, a lattice of rusted steel — the framework of a bridge. An old bridge, industrial, the kind that might have serviced a hydroelectric dam or a factory in the mid-twentieth century.Directly below me, ran the river. I couldn't see it clearly. The darkness was too deep, the current too violent, white water catching fragments of moonlight and scattering them like shattered glass. But I could hear it. A low, continuous roar that seemed to come from the earth itself, as if the ground had torn open and was pouring its guts into the void.I looked up.Lily was headi
The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 236: Horror Piled On Horror
[Alice's POV]Lily’s two thugs moved in and hauled me to my feet roughly, but with an unexpected carefulness, as if they'd been given specific instructions about how to move me. One of them stepped behind my back while the other held my shoulders. I heard a click, a soft mechanical snap, and then something hard was pressed flat against my sternum, just above my breasts.The contraption felt cold against my chest, and I caught my breath. I could feel the chill seeping through the fabric of my clothing.The thing was heavy. Glancing down, I detected the unmistakable texture of molded plastic and metal components.A harness was tightened across my back. Buckles clicked into place, four of them, two on each side, pulling the device flush against my upper body. I didn't
The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 235: Whatever It Costs
[David's POV]"I choose both," I said. "Lily is carrying my child. I'm not abandoning her. But I'm not leaving Alice to die, either. Whatever it takes, whoever I have to call, whatever it costs — I'm bringing them both home!”Adam's jaw worked. I could see the calculations running behind his eyes. The suspicion, the hesitation, the urge to reject anything I said on principle because the principle had become more important than the practical reality.Then something shifted. Something small but decisive, like a tectonic plate settling into a new position."You're not going alone!" he exclaimed."I don't recall inviting you."
The Perfect Wife Walked Away Chapter 89: The Calm Before the Storm
[Alice’s POV]The late afternoon sun cut sharp strips of light across the polished floor, through the hospital room blinds. The smell of disinfectant was barely tempered by the faint fragrance of the bouquet of white orange stems at Lily’s bedside. They were the flowers I had brought in for her, th

[Alice ‘sPOV]After we washed up in the bathroom, I sat on the sofa with Camilla in my arms. I was reading her a story. We had changed our clothes and were trying to regain the sense of security we had known before the stormy intrusion of my parents.When the doorbell rang again, I didn’t even look

[Lily’s POV]There was still a lingering burnt smell in the air, in the manor’s main bedroom, reminding me of that heart-stopping night. Restoration had been swift. It was nearing completion and the main areas of the big house were habitable once more.I’m sitting up in the large bed; my right hand

[Alice's POV]The dull pain in my stomach struck again, more intense than at any time before. I staggered for a moment, and Adam firmly supported me.“You need to get checked out right away.” Adam’s tone was serious. “You’re paler even than Lily.”“Could you take me back to Lily’s room? I’ve left m
