The Wife He Loves to Hate CHAPTER 100: YOU HAVE NO RIGHT
For several long seconds, I could only stare at Finn. I never stopped loving you, Abby. Those words should have shattered my world once. Perhaps they would have made the twenty-year-old version of myself weep with bittersweet relief, or wonder whether the boy who had broken her heart might still be the person she was meant to be with. But I wasn’t that girl anymore. At least, not entirely. I carried her memories, her raw wounds, and her unanswered questions. Yet I was also a woman who had a husband standing faithfully beside her, a little girl who called her Mommy, and a life she was actively fighting to claim. I couldn't allow a ghost from my past to write the script for the woman I was becoming. “Don’t,” I said, my voice dropping into a clear, steady register. Finn’s expression faltered, a flicker of hurt crossing his features. “Don’t what, Abby?” “Don’t tell me you never stopped loving me as though those words change a single thing.” “Abby—” “You cheated on me
The Wife He Loves to Hate CHAPTER 99: THE TRUTH
“Stella and I...” He exhaled sharply, running a hand over his neck. “It was never what you thought it was.” A humorless laugh nearly escaped my lips. “I saw you kissing her, Finn.” “I know.” “I saw her holding you. I saw you holding her back. I wasn't imagining things.” “I’m not saying you were, Abby!” “Then what exactly are you trying to tell me?” He glanced around at the surrounding guests, clearly uncomfortable with the public setting. “Our relationship... what happened with Stella... it was never real in the way you and I were real.” I stared at him, incredulous. “You cheated on me with her, Finn,” I said, every word crisp and deliberate. “And now you’re standing here telling me it didn't mean anything?” “That’s not what I meant!” “Then explain it properly.” Finn rubbed his jaw, his composure faltering under my gaze. “Stella and I were together for a short time after that, but it was a massive mistake. We were young, foolish, and reckless. Whatever happened bet
The Wife He Loves to Hate CHAPTER 98: THE BOY WHO BETRAYED ME
The invitation arrived on a Thursday morning. A charity gala hosted by the Bennett Foundation, complete with a formal dinner, a silent auction, and a guest list packed with prominent business leaders, philanthropists, and figures who regularly graced society pages. Under normal circumstances, I would have viewed it as a pleasant opportunity to spend an evening outside the penthouse walls. Tonight, however, a single name on the guest list altered everything. Finn Wilson. I stared at the name displayed on my phone screen, my thumb hovering in midair. Finn Wilson. For a brief, disorienting second, the elegant living room around me dissolved. I was no longer sitting on the sofa in the home I shared with my husband and daughter. I was twenty years old again, standing in a place I had spent years trying to forget, watching the boy I loved kiss another girl. Stella Bennett. The memory resurfaced without warning, sharp and unforgiving—Finn’s hands on her waist, Stella’s ar
The Wife He Loves to Hate CHAPTER 97: THE PHOTOGRAPH IN THE DRAWER
I found the photograph while looking for a charger. Liam had gone downstairs to take a call, leaving me alone in his bedroom. My phone was almost out of battery, and I remembered seeing a spare charger inside the drawer of his bedside table. I opened the first drawer. There were a few pens, a small notebook, and a watch box. The second drawer held some documents and a collection of old photographs bound together with a thin ribbon. I hesitated. I wasn’t sure whether I should look through them. The drawer belonged to Liam, and the photographs might contain memories he had never intended to share. But then I saw Charlotte’s face on the top photograph. I carefully lifted it. It was a picture of the three of us standing in front of a Christmas tree. Charlotte was small enough to fit comfortably in my arms, her cheeks round and her hair tied into two tiny ponytails. Liam stood beside me, his hand resting on my shoulder. I was smiling at the camera. Not the careful smile I had s
The Wife He Loves to Hate CHAPTER 96: I STILL DON’T GET IT
I looked away, staring blindly at the dark wall. For a terrifying second, phantom fragments of a life I couldn't recall flashed across my mind—my father’s furious, heartbroken face across a desk... a legal document resting beneath my pen... Edward’s warm hand smoothing over mine... his voice whispering that I no longer had to live in my father's shadow. The images vanished as quickly as they came, leaving behind a sharp, throbbing ache behind my eyes. I pressed my trembling fingers against my temple. “Did you tell me Liam was keeping me trapped?” “I told you what I genuinely believed at the time.” “Did you tell me that leaving him was the only way I could ever be free?” “I told you that you deserved to choose your own destiny, Abigail.” “That is not the same thing, Edward!” “No,” he conceded softly. “It isn't.” I glared at him sharply. “Then what did you actually say to me behind closed doors? What words did you use to strip my life away?” Edward leaned back, his eyes steady
The Wife He Loves to Hate CHAPTER 95: THE LIFE I CANNOT REMEMBER
I didn’t go to Edward to ask whether I had once loved him. I already knew the answer. Everyone had fed me the exact same polished version of that chapter in my life: I had loved him, I had chosen him, and I had fought for a future beside him. What no one had ever explained was why. More importantly, I needed to know what I had been willing to surrender to him simply because I believed his love was real. The high-end restaurant was suffocatingly quiet when I arrived. Edward had chosen a secluded private dining room in the back, tucked away from prying eyes. I stopped at the threshold. He was already seated near the floor-to-ceiling window, a crystal glass of ice water resting in front of him. He looked up as I entered, but not a single flicker of surprise crossed his handsome, composed features. “You came, Abigail.” “You knew I would,” I replied, my voice steady. A faint, knowing smile curved his lips. “You’ve always been insatiably curious whenever something fails to make s
