All Chapters of Married As His Contractual Wife, Now He Spoils Me Silly! : Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

AVERY WINTERS The moment those words left my mouth, Aubrey’s expression instantly turned anxious again. Her eyes widened slightly, and she looked completely flustered, as though she could not believe I had spoken to her in such a manner.“Forgive me, Mrs. Reed,” she said quickly, panic evident in her voice. “It’s just that I—”“You are not some insignificant maid to me, Aubrey,” I interrupted gently before she could continue degrading herself again. “You are far more than that. Ever since I stepped foot into this house, you have cared for me sincerely. You looked after me when I was sad, comforted me whenever I felt lonely, and always treated me with kindness. To me, you are like a mother figure, and I cherish you deeply.”As I spoke, I reached for her hands once more and held them firmly in mine.“It is my responsibility to protect the people who care about me,” I continued softly. “And that includes you too. So never belittle yourself in front of me again.”The corners of Aubrey’s

AVERY WINTERS Just as Rose had instructed, Harper moved in with me, and thankfully, everything had been going smoothly. Today made it the fifth day since Bernard left for his business trip. Deep down, I had secretly hoped he would return today, but earlier this morning when we spoke on the phone, he told me they still hadn’t finalized the deal yet and wouldn’t be able to come back.The disappointment lingered heavily in my chest, but I tried not to dwell on it.Earlier this morning, Harper had left the house very early because she had an important deal to seal. Since I was the only one left at home, the silence inside the mansion began to suffocate me. Feeling bored and restless, I decided to go outside for some fresh air... perhaps take a walk around the garden or the field nearby.After getting dressed, I stepped out of my room and began heading downstairs. But suddenly, I felt a forceful shove against my back.“Ahhhh!” I screamed in terror as my body lost balance instantly.Befo

AVERY WINTERS Harper was just about to speak when Caden suddenly cut her short.“She’s right,” he said softly.I shot him a brief glance, only to see him forcing out a bitter smile.“I’m only repaying an old debt,” he continued softly. “I’ve been indebted to her for the past twelve years.”“What?!” Harper exclaimed in shock, her eyes widening dramatically. “Twelve years?”Caden nodded slowly.“Yes,” he replied gently, his gaze fixed on me. “Avery once saved my life years ago… even though it nearly cost her own in the process. She got hurt because of me, yet I never even realized it at the time. Instead, I treated her terribly. I hurt her in more ways than I can count.” His voice grew heavier with regret. “So if I ever get another chance to save her again, I will gladly do it without hesitation. Because she deserves far more than that.”“But that day will never come.”Bernard's cold voice suddenly echoed through the room. And the atmosphere changed instantly.My breath caught as Bern

AVERY WINTERS Bernard stubbornly fed me until I was completely full and couldn’t take another bite.At first, I refused to eat no matter how much he tried convincing me. But instead of coaxing me, he shamelessly threatened to do something crazy if I continued starving myself.And honestly?Knowing Bernard very well, I had no doubt he would actually do it. So in the end, I had no choice but to give in.He also explained everything the doctor had told him regarding my condition. And surprisingly… I managed to recover from it faster than anyone expected.No, don’t get me wrong.I wasn’t over losing my baby. I didn’t think I would ever truly get over that pain. Even now, it still hurt as though it had happened only a minute ago.The emptiness inside my chest still felt unbearable. But at least I was beginning to regain control of myself mentally.I wasn’t letting the grief completely consume me anymore.After I finished eating, Bernard informed me that I would be discharged tomorrow.App

AVERY WINTERS “What’s going on, Bernard?” I asked, staring at him in confusion while a soft chuckle still escaped my lips.He didn’t do something crazy… did he?I thought he had finally given up his playboy lifestyle.Wait… He didn’t get another woman pregnant, did he?“Did you…” I began slowly, my anger already starting to rise. “Did you impregnate another woman?”I stared hard at him, my chest tightening.“Tell me you didn’t get another woman pregnant, Bernard. I thought you pro—”“Of course not, my love,” he cut me off immediately, his voice gentle but firm. “I already made you that promise, and I’m never going back on my word. So please… stop imagining things that could never happen, okay?”I blinked at him.Okay… then what exactly was wrong with him?If he didn’t cheat… And didn’t get anyone pregnant, then why was he acting this strange?Could this be about Hazel?The thought flashed through my mind, but I instantly pushed it away.No.There was no way Bernard would suddenly com
