Semua Bab Married To My Husband's Sworn Enemy : Bab 41 - Bab 50

Lyla’s POVI tried to slam the door in his face, but Collins wedged his hand between it and the frame. I wasn’t interested in hearing anything he had to say; I needed him to leave and never come close to Bailey again. Not now. Not ever.“Please, you have to listen to me, Lyla,” he pleaded, his voice strained. “Give me a chance to explain myself.”“Explain yourself?” I interrupted, my anger bubbling over. “What more is there to say? Are you going to feed her more lies, manipulate your way back into her life? That’s not going to happen, so you better leave now before I call security and let the dogs loose on you.”I was seething, my words sharp and filled with rage. Every part of me was bristling, ready to snap. I made another attempt to slam the door, but he blocked it again.“Lyla, please, just hear me out. I swear, you can do whatever you want with me if I don’t make sense. Please, just listen.”At that point, I realized there was nothing I could say to change his mind, so I opened t

Lyla’s POVI watched Mrs. Karev walk away until she faded out of sight, my mind still reeling from her harsh words. Over in the corner, I noticed Sasha speaking with a group of people. I couldn’t make out their conversation, but when she caught my eye, she immediately turned her focus to me and Jace. I felt the intensity of her gaze, sharp and critical.Jace seemed to notice her too. Without saying a word, he pulled me closer, planting a passionate kiss on my lips. The crowd around us seemed to blur as he held me tight, guiding me into a slow dance. I could feel Sasha’s eyes burning into us, her anger unmistakable. She dismissed the people she had been talking to and walked toward Mrs. Karev, likely to report everything she had seen.Part of me wanted to roll my eyes—there was nothing she could do to stop us. But I couldn’t help the small sense of satisfaction that bubbled inside me. Watching her fume was oddly reassuring.“Can you see that?” I heard Sasha’s voice from across the room

Lyla’s POV.It had been such an exciting night. Bailey and I didn’t sleep at all, staying up in her room, dancing, celebrating, and laughing until we were breathless. We had some drinks, but I didn’t go overboard—I was already tipsy, and Jace would’ve hated it if he found out I continued drinking after he got home. We finally collapsed on her bed, but the joy didn’t stop. We kept talking, laughing, and sharing our happiness.“I can’t believe this, sis! I’m getting married!” Bailey’s voice was filled with pure joy. “I’m getting married to the man I love the most. Can you believe that?”“I’m so happy for you, Bailey,” I said, my heart swelling with pride. “I knew everything was going to work out. God always has a plan for us.”“Sis, you have no idea how much I love this man,” she continued. “He’s not just wealthy, but also so caring and kind. And you won’t believe it—he gave me another million to help with my business startup!”“What?!” I sat up, completely stunned. “Girl, you are so lu

Lyla’s PovMy mood changed instantly.“What?

You did what? Tears filling up and blurring my vision.How could you babe, you were present at the rebranding party, you were there when she said all those mean things to me and you still accepted for her to move in with us without even informing me?How am I supposed to live with a woman who hates me so much, who's never pleased with anything I do as long as it comes from me.How could you Jace, I feel betrayed,how could you do this to me Oh! My nightmares just began.You're rarely home during the day,how do I cope at home alone with your mother now.Before I c

Lyla’s POV“So, because you managed to pull off just one project, you think you can sleep all day? Is that how Mr Karev and I built this company?” Mrs. Karev’s voice sliced through the room. “I always knew you were the bad egg dragging Jace down. I have never liked you and you always give me a reason to hate you! How can you still be in bed by this time? No wonder you cannot produce any child because God knows you cannot take care of them.“Mum!” Jace barked, his voice frustrated. “It’s too early for this.”“Early?” Mrs. Karev scoffed. “It’s past 10 AM, and here you are, sleeping like a couple of jobless people.”“Good morning, Mrs. Karev,” I said, my voice cutting through the tension.“There’s nothing good about this morning, Lyla. You’d better get up, get out of bed, and make breakfast for me and my son. I’m sure Jace didn’t marry you to have you lounging around the house. If there’s nothing else to do, go unload my suitcases from the car.”“Suitcases? I thought you were only stayin
