My steps faltered, and I stopped, my grip on Adrian’s hand tightening. He turned to me, concern etched across his handsome features. “Emily, talk to me,” he said gently. The dam broke. Tears welled up, spilling down my cheeks as I confessed the truth. “Do you know what Nathan’s sister said to me on my wedding day? She called me barren. She said no man would ever want me if I couldn’t give him children.” My voice cracked. “And for a long time, I believed her.” Adrian’s jaw tightened, his eyes darkening with barely restrained anger. “That woman is vile. You know that, don’t you? You’re worth more than a hundred heirs. You’re worth... everything.”

"Isn't it crazy how you act like everything is yours? You slept with my ex-boyfriend. And where is Clinton now? You had Mother punish me for things I never did. And then—thank heavens—she arranged a marriage for me. “Let me make something clear, Marianne. You will never marry Vincenzo. You didn't even see him until now, after returning from wherever you disappeared to. If anyone stole anything from me, it was you.” “Lies!” she screamed, her voice shrill and desperate. Her gaze darted to Vincenzo, eyes blazing. “I was supposed to be your bride! I was supposed to be your bride!” Vincenzo didn’t flinch. “Enough,” he said coolly, turning to me with a calm authority. “Little mouse, give us some s

she began, her voice filled with a familiar blend of excitement and nervousness, "I'm writing a book." My heart skipped a beat. A book about us? About the extraordinary circumstances that had brought us together? Ethan,sensing my surprise, squeezed my hand reassuringly. "A book, huh?" he asked, his voice laced with amusement. "Another family exposé?" Lily laughed, the sound echoing through the room. "Not exactly," she said, shaking her head. "It's not just about you two.It's about…" she paused, searching for the right words, "it's about unexpected love stories, about finding connection in the most unlikely places."

Penelope and the two ladies led me outside the house, where a Lamborghini was already waiting for me. I got into the car and soon we started our journey to the church where the wedding would be taking place. My heart beat rapidly in my chest as I thought of all the ways this could go wrong. Allen and Ian might not succeed in stopping Sophie from coming to the church, which means there were going to be two brides. If they succeeded in stopping her, she could eventually find her way to the church since it was supposed to be her wedding. I wondered what Allen was going to tell his parents and everyone when they found out he wouldn't be getting married to Sophie but to me, someone he barely knew

Uncle Brandon said, casting a piercing glare at Gemini's father, tension crackling in the air. The mention of the father made him shift his focus entirely from his conversation, finally confronting the weight of Uncle Brandon’s words. “I know, and now that woman is buying buildings in Venice and an art collection that costs a fortune... why is she laundering money elsewhere?” Gemini remarked, incredulity and anger mingling in her tone. Uncle Brandon shot her a look before redirecting his attention towards Mrs. Ciara, his exasperation palpable. Perhaps it was time for one final reckoning with the woman who had betrayed his sister.

I asked him as I could not bear the suspense anymore. “Alright, I have a business proposal that I’m sure you would be interested in,” he said as he brought out a document from the drawer of his desk. “A business proposal which is?” I asked. “I will partner up with your company and give you some of my clients and share some profits with you,” The proposal sounded too good to be true. “Alright, so what’s the catch?” I asked with an arched brow. “That you agree to marry me, Miss Bennet,”

Another girl is lying face down on the bed, naked at the top and in denim shorts at the bottom. Brandon's eyes find mine and his lips set into a straight line. "Is that your girlfriend?" The blue eyed blonde angles her body to the side to get a better look at me. My eyes meet hers and then go back to Brandon who remains silent. "That, my dear sweetheart, is his fiancée." Jonathan says with a bit of slur. The girl who was obviously giving him a blow job chuckles. "Isn't it too soon?" She says and anger simmers inside of me.

Crystal still looked at her target without taking her eyes off, she watched the whole process of the waiter giving it to him, and him receiving it and opening the piece of paper. But before she could meet his eyes, an unwanted person blocked her view. Crystal, slowly looked up at the person that blocked her view and the faint smile that was on her face was nowhere to be found again, "Weren't you supposed to come up to me as soon as you arrived here?" The so-called fiancee of hers walked over as Crystal sighed. "Can you at least move out of my way... You are blocking my view." She glared at him and tried to look over his shoulder but he blocked her yet again.

So did Isabella. That tiny flicker in Mercer’s expression. Recognition. Of what Ethan was to her. And what she was becoming to him. Mercer smiled faintly. “There it is.” Daniel muttered darkly, “I don’t like when old rich men notice romance dynamics.” Another crash thundered from the cliffs behind them as part of Blackwater House finally collapsed inward completely. Flames exploded upward into the rain-filled sky. Everyone glanced back instinctively. The mansion was dying. Really dying now. And strangely, Aria felt no grief watching it burn.

💍 CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE — THE SECRET BRIDE The city woke slowly. Morning light spilled across the penthouse, touching the walls in gold and amber. For the first time since Amara had entered Dante Knight’s world, the silence didn’t feel dangerous. It felt peaceful. Amara stood in the kitchen, barefoot, holding a mug of tea she had barely touched. Her thoughts were loud, replaying everything from the night before—his confession, the kiss, the way he had looked at her like she was no longer a weakness but a decision.
