The Wife He Never Married 170
JUNELayla froze and my father looked at her with an expression so cold that I barely recognised him.“June took a sample of his hair, and we had a DNA test done. The results are clear, they aren't siblings. Ares is not my biological son.”Layla shook her head violently. “Thats impossible.”“It’s the truth,” he argued. “No!” Her voice rose into a scream. “You must have faked those results! You’re doing this because you don’t want to give him what he deserves!”My father’s face darkened. “What he deserves?” His expression darkened and his voice became quiet, but something in it made even Marco fall silent. “Tell me, Layla. Did I deserve what you did to me fourteen years ago?”She opened her mouth but nothing came out.“Did I deserve to lose my company? To lose my home? To spend fourteen years mourning a woman I believed was dead?”“Henry, I—”“Did I deserve to discover that my wife had been sleeping with my closest friend behind my back?”Layla went pale and I felt Dante’s arm tighten

JUNEHe didn’t look remotely convincing. Still, Maya eventually agreed to arrange home care, provided my father followed her instructions and allowed her to monitor his recovery.By late afternoon, we were finally heading home. I sat in the passenger seat beside Dante, while my father occupied the back seat while the others followed behind us in separate vehicles, but Maya had to stay back in the hospital until her shift was over.For most of the drive, I watched the scenery pass through the window, my thoughts circling back to the DNA results and the confrontation waiting for us.Ares wasn’t my brother, the fact still felt strange, even after I had had time to absorb it. I felt sorry for him because he hadn’t asked to be born into this mess, he hadn’t chosen Layla’s lies and her Victor’s betrayal. He was simply a young boy who had been told one version of his life and was now being forced to question everything, but I couldn’t let my sympathy for him become another weapon for Layla t

JUNERaphael had barely finished giving us the address before Dante started making arrangements to leave.“Enzo, get the cars ready and bring a few men with you,” Dante ordered, then turned to my father before continuing, “the guys and I are will pick the bastard up and have him here before he knows what’s happening.”“I want to go with you.” My father’s declaration stopped everyone.I turned toward him so quickly that the movement made my head spin. Dad, you can’t. You’ve barely recovered from surgery.”My father looked at me, his expression tightening with frustration. “June, I’m not going to sit in this place while that man walks around freely after everything he’s done to me.”“I know, Dad. And I’m not asking you to let him get away with what he did. I just don’t want you putting your health at risk when you’re only just beginning to recover.”His mouth tightened. “I appreciate that, sweetheart, but I need answers. I need to look that man in the eye and hear him explain why he did

JUNEBefore I could finish, Maya turned to my father. “Henry, I think you should return to your room and get some rest. You’re pushing yourself too hard.”He stared at her. “I’ve rested enough.”“You’ve had surgery.”“And my daughter has been drugged!”“I know. I’m treating her.”“Then you can treat her while I sit here.”Maya pinched the bridge of her nose. “Henry, please don’t make me argue with you.”I glanced at my father. “It’s okay, Dad. You can stay.”He looked at me. “June—”“If you want to know, you should stay.”His brow furrowed. “Know what?”I took a deep breath. “The results are here.”His gaze shifted to the paper in Maya’s hand. “What results?”I reached for Dante’s hand, needing something solid to hold on to. “The DNA test.”My father looked between us and Maya drew a breath, before speaking up, “we received the results from the samples collected for the test. June, if you’re ready, I’ll read them.”I nodded because my mouth had gone dry.I’d spent so long imagining wh

JUNEThe first thing I heard was a steady, irritating beep, the second was someone arguing.“If you don’t sit down this instant, I swear I’ll have you sedated myself.”“Try it, Maya. I dare you.”“Dad?” My voice came out as little more than a whisper, but the argument stopped.For a moment, nobody moved, then a chair scraped against the floor, footsteps hurried toward me, and several faces appeared above mine.I blinked against the harsh hospital lights, trying to make sense of the people gathered around my bed. Maya stood closest, her white coat hanging open over her clothes. Raphael hovered behind her, his expression unusually serious. Enzo was near the window, and Dante… he was sitting beside me, his fingers wrapped around mine as though he had been holding on for dear life, but it was my father I noticed first.He was sitting on the other side of the bed, leaning forward with one hand gripping mine. The lines around his mouth looked deeper than I remembered, and there were dark ci

DANTEI lifted June into my arms and she felt impossibly light. I tucked her hand against her body, covering her fingers with mine as I carried her out of the studio.The sight of the men lying in the street barely registered, neither did the distant wail of sirens, all I could think about was getting her to the hospital.I laid her carefully across the back seat and climbed in beside her. Raphael took the driver’s seat, Ares sat beside him and the car surged forward before the door had fully shut.When the hospital finally came into view, I was already unbuckling my seat belt.I was out of the car before Raphael had fully stopped.“Help!” I shouted, carrying June toward the entrance. “Where is Maya?”A nurse rushed toward us with a stretcher, followed by two others. I laid June down reluctantly, my hands lingering around her shoulders until they began wheeling her away.“Sir, we need you to stay back.”“I’m coming with her.”“Sir—”“That’s my wife!” My voice cracked against the hospi

DANTE“Send me everything you can find out on what Angelo has been up to lately. I want to know what that fucker plans to do next before he does it.” I whispered to Enzo as he took a seat next to me.He nodded, pouring himself a drink and I lifted a brow.“Are you…”“Listening? Of course, I am boss

JUNEWhen I returned home, my father didn’t say I told you so and that alone nearly broke me again. The moment I stepped through the gates with my suitcase in hand, he walked toward me without hesitation and pulled me into his arms.I cried like something inside me had finally shattered beyond repa

JUNEI pushed the front door open slowly and stepped inside the house that had once felt like the safest place in the world. Now it felt unfamiliar and cold, like I was walking through a stranger’s life.The silence pressed against my ears as I dropped my bag beside the couch and stood there starin

JUNEFate had to be mocking me. There was no other explanation for this kind of cruelty.My father had warned me from the very beginning, and somehow that made everything hurt worse.I gripped the steering wheel so tightly my fingers ached while tears blurred the road ahead of me.I could still hea
