All Chapters of THE WIFE HE NEVER HAD, NOW HE REGRETS IT: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Adrian “T-That's a lie,” Cassandra stuttered. “You can't make an accusation like that without evidence!” “And who said I didn't have evidence?” Evelyn countered. “All this while I've been in the States, I had been investigating the case of my miscarriage. At first, I believed it had just happened naturally, but it turns out the truth was way uglier than that.” Pulling out her phone, she hit the play button on a recording where Cassandra's voice filled the room. “All you have to do is consistently add two drops into your madam's food,” Cassandra said. “And you're sure this wouldn't harm my madam?” her maid asked. “Trust me, it won't.” Then the recording stopped. “That doesn't prove anything,” Cassandra argued. A disbelieving scoff slipped from Evelyn's lips as she pulled out a photo and slammed it against her desk. “Are you still going to deny it despite this?” Cassandra's expression turned horrified as her gaze landed on the picture, which captured her giving Evely

Adrian“What are you all standing there for? Somebody should get in there and bring out my wife!“ I yelled at the cop beside me on the shore, who immediately sent his rescue team into action.As soon as Scarlett mentioned the necklace I had once gifted her, I got the message and contacted Pete to see if he could pinpoint its location.As expected, Scarlett had inserted a tracking device inside it. Once Pete acquired her location at sea, I rounded up the cops. There, we waited for Aurelia's ship to come into view and apprehend her, but it was foolish of me to assume everything would go according to plan without a hitch.“Right this way, young lady,“ one of the cops said, cuffing Aurelia's arms as soon as she landed on shore.Even though she had lost, she had an amusing smirk on her face, and her gaze never left mine. “Your wife is five feet underwater, Hartley. Even if they find her, it will be too late.“My fist tightened against the wheelchair armrest. “Take her away, officers.“My f

Scarlett“There are my two favourite twins,” Nana squeals, strolling into the room as Adrian hands the twins over to her to hold. “You did well, Scarlett. I'm proud of you.” A faint smile tugged at my lips. “Thank you. Grandpa Hartley didn't come with you?” Nana shook her head. “He's waiting outside. He was worried Adrian wouldn't want his presence in the room.” Over the past three years, Adrian's relationship with his grandfather had gotten worse. Even after his legs made a full recovery and we went down to the Hartley mansion for the usual annual family dinner, the tension in the air was palpable because it was just us, Nana, and Grandpa Hartley gathered. As for George and Halsey? There wasn't even a sign of them being alive, and Nana had considered them dead to her after finding out that they had laundered the money meant for Adrian's father's treatment.After Adrian and I had both laid our fathers to rest, we decided to close the chapter of our lives that contained the past fo

Adrian“How long are you going to keep hating your father?“ Nana asked, outside the waiting room area.“For the rest of my life if I have to,“ I replied, seething with rage. “Do you have any idea what he did?““Are you talking about Benjamin? He told me.“A humorless scoff escaped my throat. “And you forgave him just like that?““What else am I supposed to do?“ Nana asked. “Benjamin is already gone. Hating your grandfather won't change anything.““That's seeing this from one perspective, Grandma, but how about the fact he tried to poison an adopted child just because he hated that it wasn't of his bloodline?“Suddenly, Chase stormed down the hallway with Ryker beside him. His facial expression didn't look good.I grabbed his wrist, but he quickly moved it out of my grasp.“Chase, what's wrong? Where are you going?“ I asked.He didn't spare me a glance. “Coming here was a mistake.““Chase, I—“Ryker stepped in between us, pushing me back. “That's enough help for one day, Hartley. Don't

Scarlett After I got discharged from the hospital, I took three weeks of maternity leave from the company to look after my babies. While I rested, Chase assisted in running the company in my stead, overseeing the LHG project.“There are my pretty angels,” Nana squealed, bursting through the front door. Settling down onto the couch beside me, she received one of the twins from my hands.“Thanks for coming over, Nana.”“It's not a problem. I'm happy I get to see my great-grandchildren this way.” Her smile faltered. “Sometimes, I think about my son, Victor. If he were still alive, would his relationship with Adrian have gotten better? Would he also be excited to see his grandchildren?”“These thoughts have been wandering in my head ever since it was revealed what George and Marianne did with my Victor's treatment money.” She continued, her voice cracking. “I keep thinking about where I went wrong with George. Just how did he hate his own brother to want him gone? Why couldn't I see that
