All Chapters of Married To a Stranger : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Ruby pulled off her headphones. She knew this evil partnership was cracking. This was all she needed to pull the trigger. She took out her phone and sent a text to Zoe. Henry can be arrested now. Once done, she looked up at Owen. In an instant, he understood, and gave a slight nod. Despite Carter burying himself in his laptop, he stole occasional glances at the two of them. He had no idea what that was about, but the silent exchange felt like a knife twisting in his gut. Ruby was supposed to be his, and now they were sending signals like they had known each other for years, unable to stop himself anymore. He stood up, so he started. Forcing a smile, with Ruby staying here and with Great Grandma getting the wrong idea, he cleared his throat, ready to land the final punch.

Zoe rushed forward and secured his cuffs to the interrogation table. Sensing Owen worrying next to her, Ruby smiled at him. I'm fine.She turned to Henry, you're the one who called me in here. You said you had something to tell me.Looks like I changed my mind. Henry sneered. He glanced from Ruby to Zoe and took a moment to collect himself. He leaned back in his chair.All right, how about we make a deal? He suggested, I'll confess. But as the victim's son.I can request leniency, right? That bastard pushed me too far. That's why I did it. They can't give me the death penalty for that. Can they?Ruby frowned. Something about Henry's sudden change was off. She gave Zoe a look, and the two of them stepped out of the room.Ruby asked, first, are you really going to get into trouble for this?No, Zoe's expression was still tense. You let the precinct off the hook and you handed us the evidence.Captain Donovan feels

Ruby didn't know how long she stood there in the corner where Sheila had left her. She watched people come and go, faces full of relief, grief, hope, exhaustion. They looked so alive. She felt none of it. She felt hollow, empty. Dead. Inside. A sudden warmth settled on her shoulders, and she knew it would be Owen. She turned her head, and right enough, Owen had draped his suit jacket over her again. For a second, the weight of it felt like a shield against the cruel world. You know what Owen began? And then he hesitated. He stood there blankly as he searched for the rest of the sentence. He wasn't sure where to take it forward before he could find the words. Ruby spoke with a wry smile. I'm fine. Don't worry. Owen blinked. She lifted her head and stepped out of the shadows and into the light. The

Melissa waved Isabel over like a prize. Your great-granddaughter-in-law, Isabel, she announced, has done a great service for the NYPD.They're giving her a public commendation. This is a tremendous honor for the Knight family. A great public image was a priceless asset for a family like the Knights.And Isabel's commendation from the NYPD was indeed delightful news. Isabel offered a smile. Oh, it was nothing.Nonsense. Don't be so modest. Melissa chided gently, you did a fantastic job. And I'm having the Knight Corporation's PR team spin up a whole campaign around this.You're going to marry Carter in style, and from now on, you'll be the true mistress of this house.Isabel's eyes lit up. Her heart was soaring. She never thought Henry's downfall would bring her such glory. She shot Ruby a triumphant look, before turning back to Melissa.Oh, it would be my honor, of course, dear, you've earned it. Melissa replied, crisply. Your image mirrors Carter's. The fami

Melissa and her gang had no clue how to respond.Matilda's message was loud and clear. She was not going to give her shares to this bunch of vultures. It was her final verdict, but not something Melissa and her branch of the family would ever accept.They would fight this, and Matilda with everything they had.Bartholomew's face tightened. Mother. That was decades ago. And let's be honest, this is a completely different situation.He looked at the room and sneered. Owen's wife was and still is a nobody. Isabel is different.To compare her with Owen's wife is absolutely insane. We might be the richest in New York, but we're still a family deeply rooted in business.We love a good image. People love rich philanthropists. And that, he ended triumphantly, is exactly who Isabel is.She benefits the family brand. Matilda banged a fist on the table with unexpected strength.All right, then let's make it fair. You want me to give Isabel shares. Fine, I will d
