The Star's Secret Husband 48. Who is your smile for?
***"Max...""Yes, how?" Maxmilian looked at the woman softly.Anastasia was silent, and on the beach it felt so quiet, accompanied only by the roar of the waves coming and going, like the breath of the ocean slowly touching the beach. Under the soft sunlight, Anastasia stood sculpting in front of Maximilian, her heart beating faster than usual. There was something different today, something that made him feel uncomfortable and fascinated by every move Maximilian made.Maximilian looked at him with a gentle yet intense gaze. Anastasia wanted to say something, but her words caught in her throat. His breath was ragged while his heart was pounding. How does he feel? Why does Maximilian make him feel so restless and at the same time so comfortable?"Ana," Maximilian's voice broke the silence, sounding so close and deep.Anastasia wanted to answer, but her lips seemed to be sealed. Nervousness enveloped his body, freezing every word he wanted to say. She could only stare at the man in fron

***"I'm serious! I really like this girl," Selene said."Hmm, Selene. Since when did the Kingsleys choose a daughter-in-law from among celebrities? Isn't the Kingsley family willing to accept someone from the entertainment industry?"Selene smiled slightly and stared at Christian with a gentle look. "Let me tell you something. You know, at first I didn't care about the celebrity world at all. I just like classical music, as you know."Christian nodded, interested in Selene's change of tone. She knew very well that Selene was a true lover of classical music - she often attended major concerts and adored the works of famous composers like Bach, Mozart and Beethoven. The pop world, let alone modern celebrities, seems too far out of reach."That's true. I've never seen you interested in pop music before. What has changed?"Selene took a deep breath and began to tell the story. "One day, about a year ago, there was an event that completely changed the way I looked. I had just come from a

***Athena's music studio was filled with the soft sound of the piano as Anastasia finished the last lyrics of her song. In the midst of the busyness, there was a knock at the studio door. Christian appeared in the doorway with a smile on his face."Anastasia, there's someone who wants to meet you," Christian said.Anastasia stopped playing the piano and looked at Christian curiously. "Who?Christian smiled, his eyes flashing as if he had a big surprise in store. "You'll find out soon enough. Come, he's waiting for you in my room."With a hint of curiosity, Anastasia got up and followed Christian into the living room.

The woman turned her head and smiled when she saw Anastasia."Anastasia, may I introduce... this is Selene Kingsley," Christian said.Anastasia was stunned. The name is well known. Selene Kingsley is one of the richest women in the country, the wife of a successful businessman who owns many la

***"Max... "Maximilian looked at Anastasia intensely, her eyes radiating the longing she had been harboring. Without saying anything, she moved closer and before Anastasia could react, Maximilian's lips had already touched hers. The kiss was soft, slow, but full of deep feelings. Anastasia was shocked for a moment, but then her body relaxed and she allowed herself to sink into the kiss. Both their bodies seemed to melt in a warmth and longing that could not be expressed in words.The kiss slowly stopped, but Maximilian's lips were still very close to Anastasia's. The woman still closed her eyes, trying to feel every second that had just passed. His heart was beating fast, as if it wanted to leave his chest. A strange feeling crept through his body, a feeling that was hard to define, yet so strong. He didn't want to open his eyes, he didn't want this reality to end so quickly.Maximilian, still staring at Anastasia's flushed face, smiled slightly. He brought his lips closer to Anasta

Selene called out in a surprised tone, her eyes full of confusion.Maximilian had just left Anastasia's fan meeting place when she suddenly heard a familiar voice.Maximilian was immediately startled. He turned his head to see his mother, Selene, standing not far from him with a questioning look on her face. He hadn't expected to meet his mother here, at an event so far away from Selene's always elegant and noble world."Mama? Why are you here?" asked Maximilian, trying to hide his surprise. He took off his mask and his sunglasses.Selene frowned and looked at her son with the same shocked expression. "It's mom who's wondering why you're here? Have you come to Anastasia's fan meeting? Since when do you like this world, Max?" he asked in a curious tone.Maximilian was stunned for a moment. He hadn't expected his mother to recognize him, even though he tried to disguise himself with a hat, sunglasses and a mask. As he tried to make excuses, he scratched the back of his neck

***"Who, Ma? Was that person the one who helped Mama in the past?" asked Elora.Aria smiled triumphantly. "Yes, and it works! He can get rid of the woman, and Noire's extended family can accept Mama even though she brings you, who is not Rhett's biological daughter. So Mama will ask for your help so the damn girl can join her mother in hell!"Elora smiled happily. "Don't hesitate, Mama! I want to see Anastasia ruined and I don't want Leon to come back to Anastasia.""Calm down, baby. Mama will make sure that the fucking girl's pleasure is only for a moment and you are the winner!"***That night, the atmosphere in the Kingsley family's main residence was very quiet. Maximilian was sitting with his parents, enjoying a warm dinner. However, the peaceful atmosphere was suddenly disturbed when his phone rang. Anastasia's name appeared on the screen, making Maximilian smile a little."I picked up the phone," Maximilian said to his parents, then answered the call away from the dining room.

***That morning, warm sunlight streamed through the cracks of Anastasia's apartment windows, illuminating a room that felt calmer after a tense night. Maximilian, who had been with him all night, stood by the door, waiting for someone.Soon there was a soft knock at the door. Maximilian quickly opened it. Standing behind the door was Steven, the personal physician he had hired to examine Anastasia."Thanks for coming, Steven," Maximilian said as he made room for Steven to enter."No problem, Max. You rarely ask me for help, and the second time you ask me to come is for the same reason. What really happened?" Steven asked as he entered the modest apartment.Maximilian didn't say much. He just gestured to Anastasia who was sitting on the sofa with her legs wrapped in thin bandages. His face still looked tired, but he smiled a little to welcome Steven's presence."Good morning, Dr. Steven," Anastasia greeted him in a soft voice. "Sorry for the inconvenience. I was surprised that Max ca

***Maximilian sat on the sofa in his apartment, staring at the nearly empty wine bottle in front of him. His mind raced as he continued reading the document about Anastasia's past, which was open on his tablet screen. His heart was in turmoil. Every word he read felt like a thorn in his chest. He never realized how hard Anastasia's life had been—abandoned, scorned, hurt, and treated cruelly by the world. How had such a small girl survived?He reached for the wine glass on the table and took a quick sip, trying to chase away the sudden pain haunting him. Seeing Anastasia's smiling face in public photos confused him even more. The woman he knew was so cheerful and vibrant, yet there was so much hidden suffering underneath it all."How can that be?" Maximilian muttered quietly, putting down his glass roughly. "How can she keep smiling when the world is so cruel to her?"His eyes remained glued to a photograph of Anastasia as a child standing alone on a school stage, hugging the micropho

Renata and Selene Kingsley were standing near the boutique's entrance, smiling at her. With graceful steps, they approached her."Anastasia, what a coincidence to meet here," Selene said warmly. "It's been a while since we had dinner together."Anastasia smiled and arranged her long, flowing hair. "I'm glad to see you, too. How about we have dinner together? Aunt Celine might be able to join us, too.”“Sure, dear,” Celine replied.After they agreed, they headed to a fancy restaurant in the city center. The restaurant's atmosphere that night was elegant. It was dimly lit by candles and decorated with white roses on every table.

Congratulations! I know you'll always be

***"So, then. Can you trust me and tell me everything? You said I was valuable, right?"Maximilian looked lovingly at Anastasia, a soft smile forming on his lips as he brought his face closer to hers. "Because you are precious, Ana," he said in a low, sincere voice. "I will definitely take care of you."Anastasia's eyes glazed over at the words of the man who had been filling her days. "You know," Maximilian continued, still looking deeply into her eyes, "in all my life, I've never felt this crazy about a woman. I'm scared that if you leave me one day, my life will fall apart."Anastasia was silent, listening to every word that came out of Maximilian's mouth. A sense of warmth ran through her chest, but a faint worry lurked behind all her mixed emotions.Maximilian swallowed, trying to formulate his next words. “Whatever happens in the future, please believe in my love.

***Elora slammed everything on the table in an uncontrollable rage. Notebooks, pens, even a half-full cup of coffee flew and shattered on the floor. Her eyes blazing with hate, her voice shaking as she glared at Anya, who stood trembling across from her."You are completely incompetent," Elora shouted, her tone filled with anger that threatened to explode. "I've given you time, money and everything you need to make sure that Anastasia's latest album fails. But look what's happening now!"Anya looked down and tried to calm her increasingly labored breathing. "I... I did everything as planned, Elora.

"If you feel something's wrong, it's better to talk to him from the heart," Lyra finally said, her tone full of tenderness and support. "If Max really loves you, he wouldn't be able to lie to you."Anastasia fell silent for a moment, trying to take Lyra's advice in. She knew that talking to Maximilian was the only way to find answers.

***"Do you know Dr. Steven?" Anastasia asked.Lyra nodded. "You really don't know who he is? He's very famous.”Anastasia nodded. "As you know, I don't really get along with anyone in the entertainment world. I never go to parties or anything like that. Didn't Leon say that I'm socially inept?"Lyra nodded slowly. She had looked uneasy since they entered the apartment. Her eyes scanned the room, and she occasionally glanced at Anastasia with a doubtful look. Sitting on the sofa, Lyra finally took a deep breath and moved closer to Anastasia. She whispered in a serious tone,"Okay, I want to talk about something important, but not here," Lyra whispered.

The laughter and excitement of the Athena Records staff filled the room as they celebrated the success of Anastasia's latest album, which would be released in two days. Music played softly in the background while warm lighting added to the festive atmosphere. However, in the midst of the fun, a sudden feeling of unease came over Anastasia.She sat in a corner of the room, holding a sparkling glass of red wine and staring out the window.
