JASMINE POV

“We will be going to see my family this evening,” William said casually as soon as Gaston left.

I blinked, completely thrown off guard. “Uhm? What?” I scrambled to sit up straighter. “Why?”

He cocked an eyebrow. “Isn’t that obvious? We are getting married. It’s only normal for you to meet my parents.”

“It’s a fake wedding. I don’t think that’s necessary,” I frowned.

When William proposed this arrangement, I pictured a quiet wedding ceremony with no one else involved except a lawyer. I had not envisioned making a luxurious wedding dress or seeing his parents. I had been so caught up in my revenge that I hadn’t seen how deep this charade would go.

“Can’t we just skip that part?” I asked.

He gave me a look like I was being dense. “You have been married before. Why are you acting like you don’t know how weddings work? You meet my parents, I meet yours. We do the wedding. We stay married until we both fulfill our end of the deal. Then we divorce. It’s quite straightforward if y

    WILLIAM POV.I didn’t need a play-by-play to figure it out. The moment Haley’s message popped up on my phone telling me Jasmine was leaving. I knew she had seen the message.And honestly, I should’ve seen it coming.I should've known when I got to the office and noticed the Messages app was open even though I hadn’t touched it that day. Of course, she had seen something. No wonder she was suddenly acting strange, and I fell for the whole sickness act. It was probably because I thought things were finally back to how I wanted them. Boy, was I wrong.She was already planning to leave without giving me a chance to explain.And when I saw Haley’s texts staring back at me like a slap in the face, I knew Jasmine had read them.I bolted out of the building like it was burning behind me. I ran red lights. I ignored my meeting with several important clients. I didn’t care. I took the turn into the estate so fast I nearly shattered the gate.Because if she walked out that door, I wouldn’t just

  • WIFE TO A CHEATER BRIDE TO A BILLIONAIRE    CHAPTER 75

    JASMINE POV. I zipped up my suitcase and double-checked the envelope of cash I had hidden inside the lining—emergency money. I’d been stacking it little by little over the last few weeks. Deep down, I must have known something like this would happen, that the fairytale wouldn’t last. That the man who made me feel safe would eventually become the reason I needed to run again.The Uber was already on the way.I glanced around the room one last time—the soft bed we’d just shared, the wine-stained glasses still on the nightstand, the throw blanket we used to fight over when watching TV on the couch. Everything about this place looked the same.But nothing felt the same.I grabbed my bag, hoisted it over my shoulder, and headed for the stairs.But as I descended the last step, I froze when I saw William standing at the bottom of the staircase, chest rising and falling like he had run the whole way back. His hair was disheveled, his face glistening with sweat, and his eyes—God, those eyes—

    JASMINE POV. I sat by the window of the coffee shop, my fingers curled around a warm mug I hadn’t taken a single sip from. I had texted Haley as soon as William drove out, asking if she could meet. She didn’t ask why. She just said she would be there.Now, I was counting heartbeats every time the door opened.My stomach twisted with nerves. I didn’t know what I would do with the truth once I had it. Part of me didn’t even want it, not because I didn’t care, but because I was tired. Tired of betrayal and always being one step behind love, Tired of my world crashing down every time I started to feel steady.I bit down on my finger, trying to ease the panic bubbling in my chest.The bell over the door chimed.This time, it was Haley.She walked in wearing oversized sunglasses and a bright green jacket, her hair in a messy bun. She looked like she hadn’t slept, or maybe that was just my guilt projecting.When she spotted me, she gave a small wave and a cheerful smile. I smiled back, tryi

  • WIFE TO A CHEATER BRIDE TO A BILLIONAIRE    CHAPTER 73

    JASMINE POV. I could not believe it.All this time, I thought Martin and Kimberly were behind the kidnapping. I thought Elora had been dragged into this mess by their greed and obsession with power.And even when Kiara, my ex-best friend told me that the real danger was tied to William… I still defended him. I trusted him.God. I dismissed her so fast. But now it all made sense.The way William refused to involve the police or the press. How he was always trying to control the fallout, how he kept dodging anything that would expose the truth. I thought he was protecting me. But maybe… he was just protecting himself.How many of those attacks had he known about? How many did he let me blame myself for?I gripped the edge of the blanket, fingers curling until the fabric bunched beneath my nails.What the hell was wrong with me? Why did I keep falling for the wrong men? How could I still be so… naive?Martin destroyed me and now William….William lied to me.He stood there, fed me brea

  • WIFE TO A CHEATER BRIDE TO A BILLIONAIRE    CHAPTER 72

    JASMINE POV I opened my eyes to see I was lying alone in William’s bed. And just like that, the memories of last night came flooding back. Oh God. I buried my face in the pillow and groaned. Why did I do that? Of all the reckless decisions I could have made, sleeping with William, now of all times, had to be the worst. And of course, he was gone. He probably left early to avoid the awkward aftermath. Classic. I thought about the way I moaned his name and instantly wanted to sink into the mattress and disappear. I grabbed the nearest pillow and screamed into it dramatically. A million thoughts spiraled through my head, and none of them were comforting. With everything going on, Elora, Kiara, Martin, my entire life being flipped on its head, was that really the best time to have sex with the one man I swore I wouldn’t get attached to again? At the time, I just wanted to be held and forget everything, to feel something other than fear. But now? Now I was sure he regretted it. T

    WARNING MATURE CONTENT. WILLIAM STONE. “You sure?” I asked. She leaned back against the pillows, stretching out those long, irresistible legs, daring me to lose myself in them. “I’m all yours,” she whispered with a smirk. That was all the permission I needed. I climbed onto the bed, inhaling her intoxicating scent. God knows how many times I have fantasized about this moment, but I wasn’t going to devour her selfishly. At least not until she was begging me to, I cupped her face in my hands and kissed her hard, pouring every unspoken feeling into her mouth. When I pulled back, I stared. Her chest was flushed and heaving, lips swollen from my kisses, eyes dark and hungry. She looked fucking beautiful. A goddess. And she was mine. I popped the clasp on her bra, and her perfect tits spilled out freely, they were more than a handful, her nipples rosy and begging for my mouth. I dragged my finger slowly between the swell of her breasts, down her stomach, stopping just above the
