All Chapters of WIFE FOR 365 DAYS (ENGLISH VERSION): Chapter 71 - Chapter 77

UPON ENTERING the living room of his mansion, Valix found Damon lying on the long sofa. Their connection wasn’t quite friendship, but bound by a single goal—to bring Uno down and end his life—Damon often sought shelter here. “I’ll remind you, Arquilles, my mansion isn’t a hangout spot. You have your own home, so why do you keep coming here?” Valix chided, settling firmly on the single-seater sofa across from him. Damon turned to him with a smirk. “I prefer your mansion over my house.” “Do you prefer my mansion, or are you just hiding here in case your half-brother is looking for you? The pawn you used might be telling him about all your manipulations.” Valix grinned, and at once, Damon pushed himself up from the sofa. “Hiding? This isn’t hiding, Zamora—I’m playing the game. If that woman told him exactly what I said to push her into doing what she did, he’s no doubt sending his men to find me. There’s a damn right time for us to face off, and besides… you’re playing your own game

THE NEXT MORNINGManuela decided to leave her room and head to the garden, unwilling to spend another moment bored inside her quarters. She was alone in the manor save for Uno’s staff—an emergency had arisen at La Corrs, requiring her husband’s immediate presence. Lucas had already left earlier, dropped off by Don Victorino.Though Manuela felt well enough to return to her office, Uno had refused to allow it. With no choice but to comply, she’d resigned herself to his wishes.“It’s okay, Manuela,” she murmured to herself as she settled onto a swing in Uno’s garden. “Rest is what you need to get better fast.”Her thoughts drifted to the kiss she and Uno had shared the night before, leaving her wondering why he’d suddenly grown so tender toward her. Part of her wanted to cling to Suzie’s encouraging words, but fear of heartbreak held her back. For now, regardless of whether his change of heart stemmed from guilt or gratitude, she resolved to cherish every moment he treated her with kind

"Oh, you're back. I thought you'd already gone back to your condo."Damon turned to see Valix descending the staircase. Damon was simply sitting and drinking whiskey."Don't worry, I'll be heading back to my condo soon.""So, where have you been? I thought you were limiting your time outside so Urquio wouldn't find you…" Valix said, settling onto the sofa across from Damon."I am limiting myself, but I'd die of boredom in your house. I went to the park for some air. I made it back to your place, so that means I'm fucking safe. Anyway, how did your conversation with Urquio go?" Damon asked, changing the subject, which made Valix smirk."Curious?""Of course, he's my enemy.""Well, he just threatened me to stay away from his wife. I think Urquio has developed real feelings towards his contract wife. His warning to me speaks volumes, all the more reason for me to get Manuela," Valix stated, causing Damon to frown."Urquio has feelings for his contract wife?""That's what I saw in his eye

After HOURS of travel, Manuela and Uno arrived at a pier, a place Manuela vaguely remembered visiting before. She had long since stopped questioning Uno about their journey, realizing he wouldn't give her a straight answer.She was confused by him. Ever since he had been shot, his treatment of her had changed, yet she didn't want to get used to it, afraid of being hurt in the end.Night was falling, and Manuela still had no idea what Uno was planning, or why they were suddenly going to Isla Paraiso."What exactly are we going to do at Isla Paraiso? Why that place? Do I have bad memories there?" Manuela asked as Uno took her hand and led her onto the pier."We need some fucking privacy, wife.""Privacy for what?" Manuela asked, her brow furrowed in confusion."You'll see later.""S-Should I be worried?" Manuela asked, making Uno smile slightly."Maybe, or you should feel excited.""Why? You're making me nervous, Uno. You're not planning to sell me on Isla Paraiso, r-right?" Manuela ask
