Third person's POV…

The cold brass of the doorknob bit into Darren’s palm, but he couldn’t move. He stood frozen by the slightly ajar door, every breath caught in his chest as the words from within wrapped around him like a noose.

Inside, Vito’s voice was still low, gravelly, and unaware of the silent audience just outside.

“You know I wanted to let him do his own things, give him room to grow,” Vito said into the phone. “But seeing as he’s turning now, I think it’s high time I stepped in.

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 80

    Tracy's POV…“Of course I still care about you," he paused. “But you're making things difficult here," “Why are you doing this?" “Come on Tracy, don't act dumb," he snapped. “You know I've always liked you. I've known you for more than a decade. Then I professed my feelings to you and you turned me down and left me for that billionaire,”"My response had nothing to do with Adrian. I didn't just feel anything for you," I spat. I saw how horrified he looked at me. He quickly masked it with a smile. “By the time I'm done with him, he'll realise that the worst mistake he made was coming near you," “What are you going to do to him? What are you planning?" I asked. "I'm not that stupid to tell you my plans," he said, glaring at me."What did you want?” I asked. "You know what I want,” he said and leaned down, his face inches away from mine. "I want you. I've always wanted you since the first day I laid my eyes on you,”I looked down immediately, but he was quick to use his index fing

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 79

    Adrian's POV…Two days later…I was in the car, heading to the office when Aria called me. I connected immediately. “Hey Aria…”"Did you break up with Tracy?” She asked, cutting me off. She sounded nervous. I frowned, even though she couldn't see me. "What do you mean?”"I mean what I said. Did you break up with Tracy?” Her voice was louder this time. "No. I didn't,” I answered. "Then why isn't she picking her calls? I've been calling…" “I thought she was with you?" I said slowly, trying to understand what was happening. “No, she's not," “What do you mean? She clearly told me the last time that she was going to stay with you," That was our plan. She would stay at Tracy's place and try to convince her into telling me about her plans. “Well, she's not here. We last saw two days ago,”“Then where is she?" I shouted into the phone. “I'm so sorry Adrian," her voice broke. “I don't know where she is," "You better be kidding Aria,” I said threateningly. “Where are you now?" I as

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 78

    Adrian's POV…I watched as she shifted uncomfortably on her chair. “What about her?" She asked nervously. "What did she tell you?” She asked again as she swallowed her food. "What?” I feigned a frown. "Is there something she's supposed to tell me?”"I… um… yes… I mean no. That's not what I meant to say," she paused and I raised a brow at her. I laughed softly. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “What happened this time? Did you both have an argument?" "No. Not really. But she's been acting off and suspicious,”"Suspicious?” She asked. "Yeah” I nodded. "She's changed and it's almost like I don't recognise her anymore,”"So?”I sat up and cleared my throat. "I want you to help me talk to her. Find out from her what's actually going on," “Come on Adrian. I don't think it'll be that serious. I mean, she must have had her reasons," “You keep saying that, every single time. If we're an item like we claimed, why can't she tell me about it then? Couples tell each other everyt

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 77

    Adrian's POV…“He's the guy I told you about that night," I said. She was gaping at me wide-eyed. "Um… what was his name?” She snapped her fingers as she tried to remember. "Stephen,” she shouted, as soon as she remembered. "That was his name back then,”"Oh wow. Maybe that's why she wants to get back at him so bad,” she looked at me. "Because he dumped her,”I shook my head. “Aria is not that petty. She can't be doing all these you've said over a mere high school dump," “That's true," “Back to you," I said and sat straight. She quickly lowered her gaze. “Why didn't you tell me earlier about this?" “I promised her I wouldn't tell anyone, not even you," “Wow," I clapped dramatically and scoffed. “Not even me… then what am I to you if you can't even tell me something like this? You couldn't even trust me and obviously thought I'd blab about it,”She shook her head. "No. No. No,” she stood from her seat and came and sat next to me on the chair. "I'm sorry for not telling you earli

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 76

    Tracy's POV… “Aria?" I screamed as I bursted inside her house. “Aria?" I screamed again, slamming the door. I was heading towards the stairs in search of her when I heard the kitchen door downstairs open. My chest was rising and falling as I tried to maintain composure. “Why are you screaming my name like that, dear sister in law?" She asked with a smile. I scoffed. “I don't think I'll be your sister in law any time soon," her brows furrowed in confusion. I bit my lips. “Adrian suspects something. In fact, he hates me now. He's calling our relationship off," “What?" Her eyes widened in surprise. “That's… um… how did he find out," “He's not stupid. I've been off lately and he senses that something is wrong and he asked me about it and guess what… I lied to him. We were supposed to go see a site yesterday evening, but I was out with you working. I lied to my mom that I was going on a date with him only to come back and see him in our shop," “No way," she hit her

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 75

    Tracy's POV…I was shocked to see Adrian at our shop. I didn't expect him to be here. But he was here… right in front of me. Looking betrayed. “What are the bags for?" Mom asked. “I would have asked how the date went but it seems you both didn't go anymore,"I was giving my mom signals to stop talking, but she wasn't having any of it. “Date?" Adrian asked, looking at my mom then at me. “Yeah. She said you both were going out on a date, but seeing as you were here the whole time," she paused and looked at me. “Where were you then Tracy?" I blinked nervously. “I… I was…" “And what's all those bags for?" She asked again. “Who got you those things?" I felt a huge lump in my throat. The cafe felt suddenly hot. “I got them for her," Adrian said. My head quickly snapped to him. He was looking at me. “I sent them to her. We had to call off the date and I figured she must feel bad, so I bought her these to make her feel better," he added. The way he lied so effortlessly was surprisin

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 39(Darren's Father)

    Alina’s POV… Pregnant. The word echoed in my mind like a whisper refusing to fade. I sat still on the edge of the bed, one hand resting over my belly, my heart racing wildly. How? I mean, I knew how, but...how, in the midst of all this chaos, had something so sacred, so delicate, found space to gr

    Alina’s POV…Warmth.Not just from the sunlight peeking through the curtains, but from the man lying beside me. My bare skin tingled under the sheet, his arm still loosely draped around my waist as if holding me even in sleep.I didn’t move. I didn’t want to. Not yet.Last night kept replaying in m

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 38(Trouble)

    In a sleek, dimly lit lounge nestled in the heart of the city, the air hung heavy with the scent of cigars and aged scotch. A mellow jazz tune played in the background, blending with the low murmur of private conversations scattered across the room. A circular booth tucked into the far corner offere

  • Wrong bride to the right husband    Chapter 36(His coldness)

    The cool dawn breeze stirred the trees gently, rustling the leaves like whispers in the wind. Darren’s eyes fluttered open to a dim sky, where the first signs of morning teased the horizon. The air was still, but something felt different. Something… missing. His arm reached out instinctively. Em
