The Playboy Attorney & His Arranged Wife Chapter 77- A Surprise Guest
The peace of the manor was shattered not by the gentle rustle of the Texas wind, but by the rhythmic, heavy thrum of a helicopter approaching from the north. The sound was a physical weight, vibrating through the floorboards and rattling the fine crystal in the dining room. It didn't land at the local airfield; it dropped right onto the manor’s manicured lawn with a territorial arrogance, the fierce downdraft scattering Vivienne’s latest silk sketches across the terrace like colorful confetti.Emblazoned on the side of the sleek, midnight-blue aircraft was the silver anchor logo of Miller Global.Sette Miller, the patriarch of the world’s largest shipping empire, stepped off the craft before the blades had even finished their dying spin. He was a man carved out of granite and old-world ruthlessness, a titan who viewed the globe as a series of ports to be conquered. He was followed by a phalanx of security in charcoal suits that made Garette’s detail look like a neighborhood welcoming
The Playboy Attorney & His Arranged Wife Chapter 76 - Finally, The Heir’s First Cry
The return to the Thorne-Le Brione Manor was unlike any other homecoming the estate had witnessed in its storied, often cold history. This wasn't a victory march or a gala-bound procession; it was a tactical retreat. Following the doctor’s strict orders for absolute bed rest, the sprawling mansion had been converted into a high-end medical sanctuary. The scent of expensive floor wax and old books was now mingled with the crisp, clean aroma of eucalyptus and clinical precision.But Garette wasn't the only one who moved in. To ensure Dianthe had twenty-four-hour care and to make sure the Le Brione business empire didn't skip a single beat, the entire inner circle established a "temporary" headquarters at the manor. The sharks had moved into the lagoon, and they were bringing their laptops, their blueprints, and their egos with them.Life at the manor took on a rhythmic, domestic chaos that would have horrified Garette’s ancestors. Greg remained the vital link to the outside world, coord
The Playboy Attorney & His Arranged Wife Chapter 75: The Le-Brione First Heir
The laughter in the library had only just begun to feel like a permanent fixture of the manor when the air suddenly changed. It happened during a particularly spirited debate between Paolo and Amber over a maritime shipping contract. Paolo was in the middle of a dramatic, sweeping gesture, mocking a clause Amber had defended, when Dianthe had been laughing at his theatrics. Then, the sound simply died.Dianthe went pale, the color draining from her face so rapidly it looked as though a ghost had walked through her. Her hand shot out, gripping the edge of the heavy mahogany table until her knuckles turned a stark, waxy white."Dianthe?" Garette was at her side in a heartbeat. The sound of his voice carried a sharp, instinctual fear—a raw, jagged edge that he had never once displayed in a courtroom or a boardroom."I... I think something is wrong, Garette," she whispered. Her breath hitched, coming in shallow, panicked bursts. A sharp, localized pain flared in her abdomen, a hot iron po
The Playboy Attorney & His Arranged Wife Chapter 74 -The Empire of Ambition
The dust from the gala hadn't even settled before Vivienne made her next move, and she wasn't exactly known for doing anything halfway. She wasn't just in Texas for a social call; she was relocating her entire base of operations. But Vivienne Thorne didn’t do solo acts. When she moved, the earth shook, and she usually brought along someone to help record the seismic activity.The next morning, a sleek black SUV purred up the drive of the Thorne-Le Brione Manor. When the door opened, the woman who stepped out didn't just walk—she radiated a frequency of power that made the birds in the oaks stop chirping. Amber Miller was the sole heiress to the Miller Global shipping empire, but she didn’t look like she spent her time on yachts. Dressed in a sharp, minimalist jumpsuit that cost more than a mid-sized sedan, she carried a digital tablet like a tactical weapon. Like Vivienne, Amber had spent years systematically scrubbing her father’s shadow from her professional life, carving out a repu
The Playboy Attorney & His Arranged Wife Chapter 73 - The Balcony Confession
The air in the grand ballroom was thick with the scent of expensive lilies and the even more expensive perfumes of women who made a hobby of social assassination. Dianthe, guided by Vivienne’s sharp wit and even sharper glares, navigated the remnants of Elena Vance’s socialite circle with a surprising, fluid ease. She moved not like a victim of their gossip, but like a scientist observing a particularly volatile chemical reaction.A drunken, heavily Botoxed matron who is one of Elena Vance’s allies, her silk wrap trailing on the marble floor. She paused, squinting at Dianthe through a haze of gin and entitlement. "Such a shame about that Thorne money," she slurred, her voice carrying just enough to turn heads in the immediate vicinity. "One would think a nurse wouldn’t know how to handle it. It’s like giving a Stradivarius to a street busker."The insult was calculated, designed to draw blood in front of the city’s elite. Before Dianthe could even formulate a polite but firm retort—he
The Playboy Attorney & His Arranged Wife Chapter 72 - The Gala of Reckoning
The Crystal Ballroom in Dallas was less of a venue and more of a cathedral dedicated to the gods of light, oil money, and high-stakes excess. Beneath the towering weight of Austrian crystal chandeliers, the air tasted of expensive lilies and the sharp, metallic tang of over-pressed tuxedo shirts. Every name that carried weight in the South—from the old-guard cattle barons to the new-money tech titans—had gathered for the Annual Children’s Medical Foundation Gala. Yet, as the champagne flowed and the string quartet sawed through a polished Vivaldi, it was clear that the charity was merely a polite excuse for a grand display of social theatre.All eyes, whether hidden behind the rims of crystal flutes or the flutter of silk fans, were anchored to the head table. There sat the newly solidified Thorne-Le Brione power couple. They were no longer just two people; they were a sovereign entity, a merger of empires that felt more like a coronation than a marriage.Dianthe moved through the thr
