Who Did I Marry Chapter 43: Where do I sleep?
Adrian’s POV***For a few seconds, I couldn't say anything. I just stared at Aria through the car window. She looked scared. Really scared.Her eyes moved from me to the firefighters, then to the house. The question she had asked me earlier suddenly came back to my mind. What is happening here?I still hadn't answered her. And now, looking at her frightened face, I knew I couldn't keep avoiding everything forever. But I wasn't ready. Not yet. There were too many things happening at once.Nora was dead. Someone had started a fire in my house. Someone had been running through the hallway. Aria had been receiving strange messages. And now she had returned to find her home looking like this. I didn't know what to tell her. The whole situation already said enough. The smoke, the firefighters, the people standing outside, the damaged part of the house. I looked away for a moment.Then Ethan stepped forward. “Mr. Cole, welcome back.”Aria's father slowly stepped out of the car. He looked at
Who Did I Marry Chapter 42: She was back
Adrian’s POV***The smoke was getting thicker. Ethan and I had tried everything we could. We moved through the hallway, checking every room we could reach. We shouted, called out, and searched for the person we had seen running through the smoke. But whoever it was had disappeared because we found nothing. No person, no clue, nothing.I stood near the entrance, coughing as I watched the firefighters move around the compound. The fire had already spread through part of the house, but they were doing everything they could to control it. Water sprayed toward the building. Firefighters moved quickly. Some were shouting instructions to one another while others carried equipment into the house. At least they were succeeding. The flames were slowly becoming smaller. But the fire didn't scare me. Not anymore.Aria did.My mind kept going back to her. Where was she? Was she safe? What if the person we had seen running away had already escaped? What if that person wasn't running away from the
Who Did I Marry Chapter 41: Don't be scared
Aria’s POV***I stared at my phone after the call ended. But I didn't move. I didn't even know what to say.“What's wrong?” My father's voice brought me back. I looked at him. He was standing beside me, waiting for an answer.“I don't know.”“What happened?”“Adrian called.”My father frowned. “Adrian?”I nodded. “He asked where I was.”“And what did you tell him?”“I told him I was here.”My father looked toward Nora's house. “Then what?”I swallowed. “He told me to get out of here.”My father's expression changed. “What?”I shook my head. “Exactly. I don't even understand him.” I looked at my phone again. “He was so rude about it. He didn't even explain anything. He just kept saying I should leave.”My father was quiet.“And I heard something.”“What?”“People are screaming.”His face became serious. “Are you sure?”“Yes. I heard shouting in the background. There was also some kind of alarm.”My father looked toward the house again. For a few seconds, he didn't say anything. Then h
Who Did I Marry Chapter 40: Dangerous Family
Aria’s POV***“Poison?” The word came out of my mouth almost like a whisper. I stared at Nora's mother, hoping she would shake her head and tell me that I had heard her wrong. But she didn't. She just looked at me with tears in her eyes.I felt fear move through my whole body. Someone had injected Nora with poison. Someone had actually killed her. I looked at my father. He was sitting quietly across from us, but I could see the fear on his face. He wasn't saying anything. He wasn't even moving.“Poison?” I asked again, this time in a shaky voice.Nora's mother nodded slowly. “Yes.”I placed my hand over my mouth. I couldn't believe it. Nora was not sick. She had not been fighting any serious illness. She was fine because she called me. She had been trying to tell me something. And now she was dead because someone had poisoned her. My eyes moved toward my father again. He was looking at the floor.“Dad?”He slowly looked up. “What?”“Did you hear what she said?”“Yes.” His voice was l
Who Did I Marry Chapter 39: The Truth about Nora
Aria’s POV***I looked at my father again. His face was turned toward the window, and he kept staring outside as if the road was suddenly the most interesting thing in the world. But I knew what he was doing. He was avoiding me. A few minutes ago, I asked him a simple question.Where were you the night Mom died?He had looked at me, and for the first time in a long time, I saw something strange in his eyes. Fear.I waited for him to answer but he didn't. Instead, he had looked away and remained quiet. At first, I wanted to ask again. I wanted to force him to tell me the truth. But I was tired. I was tired of asking questions and getting silence. I was tired of people looking at me like I was getting too close to something I wasn't supposed to know. So I gave up.I turned my face toward the window and let the journey continue. The car was quiet. I could hear the sound of the tires moving against the road, but my father didn't say anything. Neither did I. My mind kept going back to Nor
Who Did I Marry Chapter 38: Smoke in the House
Adrian’s POV***I stood beside the window, staring down at the driveway. My father’s words kept replaying in my head. For some reason, they bothered me. Maybe because of the way he said them. Or maybe because I knew my father. He wasn't the type to worry about other people's problems. Not unless there was something behind it.I turned away from the window. Ethan was sitting on the couch, scrolling through something on his phone.I looked at him. “Did you notice something?”He raised his head. “Notice what?”“My father.”Ethan frowned. “What about him?”“He sounded… concerned.”Ethan slowly put his phone down. “He was concerned.”I stared at him. “You think so?”“Yes.”I walked toward my desk. “He sounded sad.”Ethan gave me a strange look. “Well, Aria lost her friend. Anyone with a heart would feel bad about that.”I stopped. “Anyone with a heart?”“You know what I mean.”I looked away. My mind went straight back to Aria. Her crying, her face, the way she had looked at me earlier. Li
