All Chapters of The Wife You Shouldn't Have Lost : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

“Zara, leave the room. I need to talk to your father.”She pursed her lips, crossed her arms, and shook her head.Sophia didn't have time to argue. What she needed to discuss concerned Zara, and she couldn't risk the little girl overhearing.“Listen. I know your father just got back, and you want to spend time with him. Why don't you come back when I'm done?”Zara held out her pinky toward her. “Promise you'll come get me when you're done.”Sophia hooked her pinky with Zara's and smiled. “I cross my heart. Now go on to your room.”Zara hopped off the couch and skipped up the stairs. The moment she disappeared, Sophia moved to the seat beside Nolan.“I am troubled,” she began with a sigh. “I never imagined there would come a day when I'd be this worried.”Nolan released a quiet breath. At least this wasn't about the company. Things were finally falling into place, and he had Sophia's unwavering support through it all.“What is this about?”Sophia's gaze drifted toward the staircase. Th

The grand Harthwore mansion stood in its usual quiet elegance, bathed in the warm glow of the evening sun. The marble floors reflected the soft light pouring in through the towering glass windows, while the neatly trimmed gardens outside swayed gently beneath the cool breeze. Inside, the silence carried a comforting warmth, broken only by the faint ticking of the antique grandfather clock and the occasional clink of china from the kitchen.“How did your day go, sweetie?” Natasha asked warmly as Layla walked into the living room.Exhausted yet satisfied, Layla slipped off her heels before dropping onto the plush couch beside her father, resting her head on his chest.“It was fine, Mother. I had a great day with the staff. I got to pick out the winners, and honestly, they all put in so much effort.”A proud smile spread across Natasha's face.“I'm glad to hear that. Let me get you a glass of juice.”She rose gracefully and disappeared toward the kitchen, leaving Layla alone with her fat

The morning headlines continued to dominate every news channel and social media platform. Across television screens, newspapers, and online articles, one name kept resurfacing—the Harthwore family.More specifically, Layla.Footage of the orphanage she had begun renovating played repeatedly on the television mounted on Adrian's office wall. Reporters praised her generosity, speaking about how she had once grown up there before leaving to build a new life. The once-forgotten orphanage had suddenly become the center of public attention, with many applauding her decision to give back to the place that had raised her.Adrian sat comfortably behind his desk, one hand resting against his cheek as he watched the broadcast in silence.For nearly thirty minutes, he hadn't moved.He wasn't particularly interested in the news itself. He was simply passing the time while waiting for Jade, who had insisted on taking him out to lunch as a way of thanking him for everything he had done for her the p

They called her phone repeatedly.They returned to the office and searched everywhere they could think of, but there was still no sign of Layla.Earlier that day, they had received good news from the hospital. The chauffeur, who had been receiving treatment since the accident, had finally regained consciousness. Although his recovery was still slow, the doctors were optimistic.They had planned to share the news with Layla that evening.So they waited.And waited.But she never showed up.Growing anxious, Ethan drove back to the gallery and questioned the security guards. None of them could confirm that Layla had left for home.Questioning her driver wasn't an option either.He had been at home the entire day.Layla had driven herself to the gallery that morning and had insisted on driving herself back.Something wasn't right.Realizing the situation had gone too far, Ethan called Adrian to ask whether Layla had stopped by his office or was with him.“No,” Adrian answered. “She never

The news was all over the place. The police had been informed, and an investigation had already begun. Jade had no idea a trap had been set for her. She was already at the office, waiting for Adrian's arrival. If only she knew what awaited her. To her, this was a way of showing that she still cared about Layla. They had just reconciled, and after seeing the news, she thought visiting Adrian would make him believe she still cared about Layla. Adrian was about to leave the house when he received a message from his assistant. It was exactly what he had been waiting for, so he immediately reached out to Joshua and asked him to meet him at the office. He was going to reveal everything he had discovered. At first, he thought he would have to call Jade over himself, but she was already at the office. He left the house without telling anyone what his assistant had reported, but he made sure to instruct the guards to lock the gate after he left. If anything urgent came up, his assis
