While Marrying Mr. Steele Chapter 128: Sienna...
Ethan's povThe drive back from the campaign site felt longer than it should have. The roads wound past farmland and industrial lots, the kind of place where our company had decided to plant its latest "community uplift" initiative. On paper it was about bridging the digital divide, putting tablets and high-speed internet into schools that barely had working roofs. In reality, it was Veronica’s chance to plaster our logo across another corner of the world and remind investors that Steele Technologies cared about “the people.”I leaned back in the town car, scrolling through emails on my phone, when Sienna shifted beside me. She’d spent most of the afternoon posing with schoolchildren, holding up devices she’d never actually use, laughing too loudly at cameras she made sure always found her.“Successful day,” she said, her voice laced with satisfaction.I didn’t look up. “It served its purpose.”Her laugh was soft, practiced. “That’s the thing about you, Ethan. Always so… clinical. Y
While Marrying Mr. Steele Chapter 127 – A clandestine visit
Amelia’s POV“Dr. Steele?”The voice came from my doorway, firm but not unkind. I looked up, blinking at the man framed in the hall. A dark suit, neatly pressed. A badge clipped to his belt.“Yes?” My throat was raw, and I hated that it sounded like I’d been crying.He stepped inside without waiting for an invitation. His shoes barely made a sound against the tile. “Detective Harris. I’d like a few minutes of your time.”Every instinct in me stiffened. Something about the way he said it—measured, unhurried—made me feel cornered before he even sat down. “About what?”He closed the door gently behind him, setting his leather notebook on the edge of my desk. His movements were precise, almost careful, like he was trying not to spook me. “There are some questions coming up in the background of last night’s media coverage. Specifically, questions about your past.”The room seemed to shrink. The blinds over my office window swayed slightly from the draft, but the air still felt heavy, press
While Marrying Mr. Steele Chapter 126: How do you know?
Ethan's povI told myself to leave. I told myself she needed space.“You know what, maybe I should go. I came to check on you, and I've done that.She only made a grunt. “I'll see you at home, Ethan. Just…. we'll discuss everything at home. This is my workplace and there's enough scandal already."I nodded, then pulled her into a hug. Amelia could be stubborn, but she was my everytI kissed her forehead, loving the way my lips felt against her soft s“I'll see you at home.”The door clicked behind me, muffling the sound of her uneven breathing on the other side. I stayed in the hall longer than I should have, one hand braced against the frame as though pressing harder might let me feel what she wasn’t willing to share.Her silence burned. The fact that she turned away from me—turned toward her phone instead—was worse than any words she could have thrown in my face. I had come to check on her, to steady her after the video had ripped through the city like a wildfire. But she hadn’t wan
While Marrying Mr. Steele Chapter 125---Fighting Over Her
Ethan’s POVMy knuckles hit her office door harder than I meant them to. The echo carried down the quiet hallway, far too loud in a place that prided itself on silence. My jaw was tight, my pulse hammering, but I told myself this was simple. I was here to check on her. To make sure she was all right after the storm of that damned video.But the second I heard voices on the other side—her voice, low and uneven, and a man’s voice I knew too well—all my reason snapped.Leo.I didn’t wait for her to answer. I pushed the door open.The scene inside hit me like a blade.Her office looked like the aftermath of a hurricane. Papers were strewn across the floor, books piled in messy heaps, pens scattered like debris from an explosion. And in the middle of the wreckage stood Amelia—her cheeks streaked with tears, her shoulders trembling—and Leo far too close to her, his hand just falling away from her face as if I hadn’t caught it in time.The sight sent fury tearing through me.“What the hell i
While Marrying Mr. Steele Chapter 124: Sensible…
Amelia’s POV“Dr. Steele.”Dr. Marks’s voice cracked through the hallway like a whip. I froze with the folder clenched so tightly under my arm the edges dug into my skin. If I walked faster, maybe he’d let it go. But no—his shoes stalked closer, each step deliberate, until the weight of his presence pressed me into stillness.“Morning, Dr. Marks,” I said coolly, though I knew he could hear the tremor hidden beneath the surface.He didn’t waste time. “We need to talk. Now.”His office smelled of bitter coffee and disinfectant. The blinds were half-closed, letting in jagged slices of light like prison bars. He leaned over his desk, eyes sharp, cutting through whatever defenses I thought I still had.“You’ve seen it,” he said flatly.I lifted my chin. “The video.”“Don’t play coy.” He rubbed his forehead, the kind of weary gesture of a man who wanted to curse but settled for silence. “It’s spreading like wildfire. Staff gossiping. Patients whispering. The clinic doesn’t need scandal, not
While Marrying Mr. Steele Chapter 123: The Public Fallout
Amelia’s POV“Amelia—wait up!”Leo’s voice cut through the cool morning air just as I reached the clinic steps.I stopped, clutching my bag tighter, coffee steaming in my other hand. My body ached with exhaustion, but it wasn’t from lack of sleep—it was from replaying every second of last night on an endless loop. Ethan’s eyes. Sienna’s smirk. My hands in her hair, hers in mine. The papers scattered like bones across the marble.I turned slowly. Leo jogged the last few steps toward me, his dark hair rumpled, his coat half-buttoned. He looked like he hadn’t slept either.“I shouldn’t even be talking to you right now,” I said quietly. “If Ethan sees—”He shook his head, cutting me off. “Forget Ethan for a second. I came because… Amelia, it’s bad.”A cold coil twisted in my stomach. “Define bad.”He hesitated, searching my face like he was bracing me for impact. “Someone was there last night. A journalist. He recorded the fight in the lobby. It’s already online. And it’s spreading.”My b
