The Rise of The Forgotten Wife Chapter 52: The Traces She Left Behind
[Jasper’s POV]—J? That’s my initial, right? Just like what's written inside the ring.Did she practice baking a cake for my birthday?Before I could confirm it with Ines, my phone rang with an incoming call from Lea. I slipped the book into my pocket.“What is it, Lea?” I asked calmly.“My mother just told me that your parents invited mine to a private dinner. Why are you only telling me now?”I frowned. It was true that I hadn't seen my mother in a long time, but she hadn't even mentioned this to me over the phone.Then again, I was her son. She could summon me whenever she wanted, and I was expected to answer my parents' call at any time.“I just found out too,” I replied honestly. “What is the meeting about, anyway?”“That's exactly what I want to know. My parents are still in Paris. If it's something important, they'll have to fly back immediately to make it to your house the day after tomorrow.”“The day after tomorrow? That's rather sudden.”“So, what do you think? Should they
The Rise of The Forgotten Wife Chapter 51: Mr. Busy
[Axel’s POV]—I needed a moment to process the messages one by one. I’m Giana’s husband? Okay, Okay, Giana once said she called me to pretend I was her husband, but did she actually give my phone number to other people and claim it was her husband’s?It wasn’t that I minded her going around telling people I was her husband. But I—well, I didn’t know. My feelings were all mixed up. I rubbed my face awkwardly.As I read the last message from the unknown number, my heart sank. I had expected Lea’s announcement to have some effect on Giana’s health. Mel hadn’t told me anything about her current condition.Just how bad was it?I decided to call the number.“Good evening,” I said, sounding oddly formal for some reason.“Am I speaking to Giana’s husband?”I frowned. It was an older woman’s voice. Did I really have to lie to an old lady like this? A part of me felt guilty, but I had promised to help Giana with whatever she needed.“Yes, this is Axel, Giana’s husband.”“Ah, finally! I get to
The Rise of The Forgotten Wife Chapter 50: Morgana Leslie Chambers
[Giana’s POV]—The lighting was dim and yellowish. Too dim for a hospital room. A hand reached out from behind a closed curtain. For some reason, I felt compelled to reach for it. So I did, holding it tightly with both of my hands.Then, the curtain opened.The hand belonged to Jasper, who was lying on a bed.Meanwhile, a blonde woman was straddling him, kissing him.“Giana! Giana!”I jolted awake, gasping for breath. Mel’s hand was still on my shoulder. Tears slipped from the corners of my eyes.“Are you okay?”“Yeah,” I replied weakly.“Really? Is your stomach okay?” she asked again, clearly unconvinced.“Mm-hmm. It doesn’t hurt.”“Sorry for waking you up. You looked like you were in pain. I was worried something might be wrong.”“It’s alright.” I understood that Mel was worried about my pregnancy. The doctor had instructed her to keep a close eye on me.“Were you having a nightmare? What was it about?”I nodded, but I didn’t want to tell her what the dream was about.It had been m
The Rise of The Forgotten Wife Chapter 49: A Little Burnt
[Jasper’s POV]—Damn it. Axel was really walking all over me. His words were getting more and more outrageous, and he kept challenging me. If he really had been receiving help from Stevan Ortega all this time, then he didn't deserve to take credit for it.But in my current position, Father wouldn't take my words seriously. I’d better keep this to myself for now and use it as leverage while gathering more evidence.I signed the planning documents, along with the statement to be released to the public announcing that Lea’s engagement was a personal matter and had nothing to do with Nexora. Then I handed everything to Noah to handle.“I’m going out, and—” I glanced at my watch. It was already three in the afternoon. “I’ll head straight home afterward. Call me if anything comes up.”“Yes, Sir. What should I tell people if they ask where you are?”“Just tell them I have a meeting with a vendor.”“But, Sir, there’s no meeting with any vendor on your schedule.”“Just tell them that.”Lea ha
The Rise of The Forgotten Wife Chapter 48: Giana's Husband
[Axel’s POV]—"Good, but for some reason, it doesn't feel as bold as your usual ideas," my dad commented after I finished presenting my proposal.It was just me, Dad, and Jasper in the room, so I presented it in a more relaxed manner. However, I knew the difference wasn’t due to my delivery.It was simply because the idea had come from a different mind.I just smiled, fighting with all my might to suppress a yawn. I'd been working on this until late last night and barely gotten any sleep."Jasper, carry out this plan," my dad said before leaving the room."Yes, Dad," Jasper replied.I was about to leave as well when Jasper grabbed my hand."We're not done yet," he said.I let out an uncontrollable, wide yawn."What? I'm sleepy. I need some rest.""This strategy… it wasn't your idea, was it?"I roughly pulled my hand free. "What kind of accusation is that? Can't you see how huge my eye bags are? I worked my ass off all night, and now you're telling me this isn't my idea?""Well, maybe
The Rise of The Forgotten Wife Chapter 47: Her Husband, If He Exists
[Giana’s POV]—“Giana, you’re still holding up okay, right?” Mel asked, turning her head.“I’m alright,” I replied from the back seat.“We never know. This is your first pregnancy, and I’ve never been pregnant myself. Neither of us really knows what to expect. And we both know you’re the type of person who would say you’re fine even when you’re on the verge of dying,” she scolded. “Just hang in there. We’ll be at the hospital soon.”I let out a long sigh.“I told you, I’m alright.”Ever since I started experiencing stomach pains yesterday, Mel had been so worried that she insisted on taking me for a checkup first thing this morning. Emma had asked Tobias to drive us, and Mel had insisted on coming along. So here we were, the two of them accompanying me to my prenatal appointment.Fortunately, Dr. Susan Vance was scheduled to see patients today, and I was able to see her, even though it was an unscheduled visit.“There’s nothing wrong with me, right, Doctor?” I asked after she finishe
