The Wife You Shouldn't Have Lost 136
That evening, when Harthwore arrived home, he instructed the guards to tighten security around the house, just as he had advised Salvatore to do. What he had witnessed earlier made him realize it could be a new tactic to gain access to someone's home.He marched into the living room, and the first thing he asked was, “Where's my daughter?”“She's upstairs,” Joshua replied, rising from the couch. He had been keeping Natasha company ever since he returned home. “You never made it back to the office. Your meeting had to be rescheduled.”Harthwore patted him on the shoulder.“Thank you for taking care of that. Something came up, which is why I couldn't return to the office.”He lowered himself onto the couch.No sooner had he sat down than King came running toward him, excitedly showing him something he had scribbled on a piece of paper.Harthwore turned to his wife.“Layla didn't go to the office today?”Before Natasha could answer, King quickly scribbled another message and held it up f

“I hope you understand why my wife reacted the way she did,” Harthwore began after the long silence that seemed as though it would never end. “No parent wants to lose a child, especially after being separated from them for so many years.”Ruth nodded as though she understood. But the moment she spoke, her expression hardened.“Mr. Harthwore, is this about her losing her child, or about the accusations she threw at me?”A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips before he could stop it. He had always known Ruth to be wise and intelligent, but today she was proving to be even more perceptive than he had expected.“I apologize on her behalf. Our families have shared a good relationship for many years. It's difficult to believe that you would do something like that.”“Oh, please.” She let out a bitter laugh. “What you're saying may be different from what's truly in your heart. You also believe I had something to do with all of this.”“Of course,” he admitted.Her eyes immediately narrowed,

“What should we do?” Harthwore asked, his voice low with concern. “The method we used to catch Salvatore's wife—couldn't we use it here too?”Joshua smiled, but it never reached his eyes.“This isn't like that one,” he said, adjusting in his seat. “That case was different. With this, we need confirmation. We need to catch her admitting it herself.” He paused, studying his father's face. “And it's different from Ruth's case. Do you know why?”Harthwore's brows furrowed as he gave a small shake of his head.“Because she's not the only one involved.”That only deepened his confusion, and it showed clearly on his face. Joshua didn't wait for him to ask. He rose from his chair and moved to the seat opposite his father, leaning forward with his hands clasped together.“It started with her daughter and her husband,” Joshua explained. “But that wasn't enough. Her sister got involved too. Even her mother.”Harthwore's expression hardened.“Ruth's involvement might be because those are her chil

“I am not leaving without my mother!” Annabelle cried, struggling as the security guards dragged her toward the door.Unlike his sister, Xavier said nothing.He held himself together and followed them out in silence, though the disappointment in his eyes was impossible to miss.Their mother had failed them—just as their father once had.For so long, he had believed she would do better. He had wanted to believe she could be both a mother and a father figure to them.But he had been mistaken.And a part of him was consumed with remorse.He had done most of the things she asked of him, obeyed her unquestionably, and now this was the reward for all of it.Not only had they been humiliated in front of the maids and the guards, but they were also leaving with nothing.Their allowance had already been cut off.At this rate, they might even have to transfer to another school.“Please!” their mother cried, her voice cracking as she reached for Salvatore. “You can't do this to me. They can't le

That morning, the chaos downstairs jolted Adrian awake. At first, he assumed it was too early for whatever drama was unfolding in the house. But when he reached for the clock on his nightstand and saw the time, he shot upright in bed.He had overslept.That rarely happened.Without wasting another second, he got out of bed and headed toward the bathroom, intending to rush through his morning routine before leaving. But the moment he reached the restroom door, he stopped.There were enough security guards and household staff in the mansion to handle almost anything. So if the noise downstairs had something to do with his father, then it was serious enough for him to step in.He turned away from the bathroom and left his room, making his way downstairs instead.The closer he got to the living room, the louder the voices became.

The very person they had been talking about walked into the house. At once, every gaze in the room turned to her.Layla froze, unease creeping into her chest.Why was everyone staring at her like that?Then her eyes landed on her mother.Natasha's face was pale, tear-streaked, and visibly swollen from crying. It was impossible not to notice.“Is everything okay?” Layla asked the question, slipping out before she could stop herself. She stepped further into the room, her heart pounding hard against her chest.Natasha rushed to her and pulled her into a tight embrace, breaking into another sob.That only made Layla panic even more.She gently pulled away and held her mother's hands, searching her face anxiously.“Please don't tell me this has something to do with me.”Natasha shook her head at first, tears streaming down her cheeks.Before she could say anything, Joshua stepped forward and gently pulled her away from Layla, gathering her into his chest so she could cry there instead.“Y
