Semua Bab Billionaire's Second Wife: Bound To Him By Vows: Bab 111 - Bab 120

Jack’s P.O.V.I watched Pearl melting down in Arthur’s embrace.That wasn’t romantic.I could see that on Arthur’s face.They were scared.I was at a good distance from them.So, I couldn’t hear what they were talking about.I guess they were still worried about Evan, and their fear was also related to his condition.I dug my nails into the plaster of the pillar.I shouldn’t be jealous, and to be honest, I had already accepted that Pearl is now my sister-in-law.I didn’t blame her because she was also a victim.If we just talked about marriage, then she was the biggest victim.And I was glad that she was married to Arthur, not to Neil.We lacked a strong emotional base in our relationship.So, reality shouldn’t hurt like this, but it hurt so much.Their synchronization, that silent understanding when they worked together, mutual trust, and their protectiveness towards each other…Everything felt like a sharp jab on my heart.I rubbed my chest to ease the pain while watching them stay

Arthur’s P.O.V.“Why did you call all of us here, Arthur?” Derek Nickelson asked me angrily while entering the living room of the mansion.I called all the people involved in this conspiracy to meet me here or else they will prepare for the consequences.Of course, they had to come.All of them knew very well what the consequences could be if I were directly involved.“Take a seat first, all of you. This is going to be a long conversation,” I replied to him nonchalantly and took the single couch.Pearl wasn’t here.She was with Evan. I asked her to stay behind.They all had grim expressions on their faces except Neil.He still had that arrogant expression on his face that he always had.I waited for them to settle down patiently.Mom and Dad also sat down on the long couch with Pearl’s parents.I looked at Rose, who still had a calm face.“Good morning, everyone,” Summer greeted everyone politely after entering the living room with Jack.“Jack! What are you doing here, son?” Mom excla

Arthur’s P.O.V. (Continued)“Uncle Wilson,” Jack called him softly while holding Wilson tightly against his chest.Wilson’s body went limp into his embrace, though.His reaction was the certainty that he was never a part of this conspiracy.But it didn’t erase the fact that he actively participated in risking Evan’s life.Both Sofia and Wilson were present when Griffin diagnosed Evan with blood cancer and told them to work with him as he was about to get a breakthrough in his research related to inventing medication for blood cancer.Connor and Rhodes stood up, too, and took Wilson from Jack.Jack looked concerned, but he went back to his previous place and sat down on the armrest again.I gave Wilson a few minutes to come back to his senses, but it seemed that the shock was more than he could endure.I looked at my mother with a cold gaze.She took a deep breath and straightened her back.“I admitted that I fed Vera those medications after Evan was born.” She admitted in a low and fi

Arthur’s P.O.V. (Continued)For a brief second...No one breathed.Then I laughed.A slow...Cold...Humorless laugh.It echoed through the living room like something completely out of place.Derek frowned."What is so funny?" he asked in a displeased tone.I stopped laughing and tilted my head a little, staring at him coldly.“The one who died is my wife, Derek. How does this only matter to your family?” I asked him coldly.“If it had stopped after her marriage, it would have been your family's matter only, but they continued poisoning her after she became Mrs. Froste.” I continued without changing my tone.Derek grimaced darkly but stayed silent."When those drugs destroyed her body.""When they slowly damaged her organs.""When they eventually led that research to my son, who is now fighting blood cancer."I slowly leaned forward, locking my gaze with him.“Was she only your daughter?” His eyes widened slightly in the end.“My wife died, and my son is dying.” The words came out far

Arthur’s P.O.V. (Continued)I slowly closed my eyes when Willow didn’t speak further.I looked at her and saw her looking in a particular direction without blinking.Her face was pale as if she were in pain.I didn’t need to see where she was looking.I sighed and slowly moved my gaze to Summer.Her gaze was unfocused.As if she were not in the room.As if she had stopped registering everything around her.Rose sobbed aloud, but no one paid attention to her.“B… but you said th… that the black boxes represent dead members?” Sophie asked in a shaky voice.Willow took a shaky breath again, but my eyes were glued on Summer.“That’s right, Ms. Sophie,” Willow answered.“These boxes represent the dead members who died young. You can see the date of their death under the boxes,” Willow continued, trying to control her voice.“But as you can see, there is no information under that particular black box because his birth isn’t registered.”Nobody raised a question for the time being, but I kne
