All Chapters of The Wife You Shouldn't Have Lost : Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

The investigation was still ongoing when Salvatore flew back into the country that afternoon. One of the security personnel picked him up from the airport, and the first place he went was the Harthwore mansion to see his wife.He had spoken to Natasha over the phone earlier, but she hadn't sounded like herself. Her voice was shaky, as though she had been crying, and knowing her, she would never have called him unless she truly needed him.The moment he stepped into the house, he found her sitting in the living room, staring blankly at the television as the news continued reporting Layla's kidnapping.A faint smile tugged at his lips as he walked toward her.“That's not good for you,” he said gently.The moment she heard his voice, Natasha sprang to her feet and threw herself into his arms. The tears she had been holding back came pouring out as she sobbed uncontrollably, soaking the front of his shirt.Salvatore wrapped his arms around her without saying a word.He understood what it

It had been days since they kidnapped her.Layla had long since lost track of the days and nights.Since being tied to the chair, they had given her barely enough food to survive.She never argued with them.She never begged them to let her go.The men who had kidnapped her had kept their faces hidden, but deep down, she was convinced the Watson family was behind it.Nolan was the first person who came to mind.If not him, then his mother.Or Ashley.One thing was certain—no matter how long they planned to keep her there, eventually, someone would have to reveal themselves.Layla was terrified.But fear wasn't going to save her.She had only ever seen kidnappings in movies. Never had she imagined she would become a victim herself.The ropes dug deeper into her wrists with each passing day, leaving them raw and swollen.She had once pleaded with them to loosen the ropes, but her request had only earned her harsher treatment.Suddenly, the heavy warehouse door creaked open.A flood of s

Ashley shot daggers at Adrian as she stood before him. Ignoring his calls had made her believe she had outsmarted him. That confidence disappeared the moment she received his text message.Without wasting a second, she rushed out of the house and drove to the address he had sent. Adrian let out a quiet chuckle.He could see the tension written all over her face. Even now, she was trying to act stubborn.He had no interest in playing games.He went straight to the point.“Layla walked away when she realized she was no longer wanted.”His voice remained calm.“She chose to live quietly. She found happiness because she wanted the two of you to be happy.”He paused before looking directly into Ashley's eyes.“But even that wasn't enough. You still went after her for something she knew nothing about.”A bitter laugh escaped him.Behind it was the pain of realizing how deeply everyone had been involved in Layla's suffering.If he hadn't returned to the country…He might never have uncovered

The day had finally come to an end. Joshua had planned to take his father to the hospital for his appointment with the doctor, so he made sure everything was ready before escorting him to the parking lot. Once they reached the car, Natasha, who had accompanied them, handed Joshua Harthwore's medication before waving goodbye to her husband. He smiled and waved back before getting into the car.Watching his wife grow thinner with each passing day broke Harthwore's heart. He felt he had failed not only as a father but also as a husband. Years ago, it was his negligence that led to the loss of their daughter, and now that she had finally returned, they had carelessly allowed her to be kidnapped.They had just gotten onto the highway when Joshua's phone vibrated with a notification. Without hesitation, he glanced at the screen. At a time like this, any message could contain information that might lead them to Layla. Business was the least of his concerns.As soon as he opened the message a

“We can't tell them we didn't find her,” Ryan said as he dressed the cut on Adrian's shoulder. “Father's condition is already serious. There's no way I'm letting him find out we lost her again.”“I agree,” Joshua added. “Father mustn't know about this, and neither should Mother. We'll come up with another plan.”Adrian gently pushed Ryan's hand away and sat upright, resting his hands on his waist.They still needed to catch the figure, and he hadn't received any updates from the men he had sent after him.“I don't think he's working alone,” Adrian said thoughtfully. “He received a message while we were talking, and the name that popped up…”“We just need evidence,” Joshua interrupted. “I'm certain he has a connection with Ruth.”Adrian nodded slowly. He was beginning to believe the same thing. At that moment, one person came to mind—Jade.“We managed to rescue the old lady,” he informed them. “She's back at her apartment. I asked Jade to stay with her until I returned.”Joshua leaned
