Esmeralda Upton Husband Novels & Stories

I devoured the article, my heart racing: "Model Jessica Freeman alleges romance with Cade Callaghan, despite his recent marriage to Emily Wilburn. Freeman claims Cade was still dating her when he married Emily." "I knew it!" I exclaimed, rushing to show my husband the magazine. "I should have sensed something was off." My husband's expression remained calm, but I saw a flicker of concern. "I knew my son would never choose someone so beneath him," I said, venom in my voice. "But they are married," he reminded me. "Didn't you read it?" I pressed. "Jessica Freeman says they're not married. My son never married that girl." His eyes narrowed, calculating.

As Peach was about to defend herself against her step-uncle's words, Elmer suddenly cut in rudely, allowing his through color to show, now that he could see in the investor's eyes they were horrified at Elijah. “That is her husband... he's a lowlife thug, who gets his money by robbing others, sleeping around with rich women… a gold digger, and now! he is using my niece to scam the family and steal our wealth... He is a disgraceful excuse of a human!” Elmer yelled, spitting his last words furiously. “I have the will, Elmer. So you can stop talking like a deranged man, especially since you don't know a damn fact about my husband!” Peach casually uttered, her eyes narrowed angrily at her uncl

she hissed and I shook my head. “So, what job do you want to do? Teacher? Dancer, or Chef?” I snapped my brows together in irritation and she shrugged her shoulders off. “You do not need to worry about that.” “I will, wifey.” “Can we mind our businesses? You are only my husband, don’t think you are responsible for me.” “That is where you are wrong, Emerald. As long as I am your husband, you will follow my rules.”

Jiang Hui Yin who read these comments was pleased with the response but it wasn’t enough and that stupid husband and wife hadn’t even bothered to stop the comments or clear things up. What made things worse was her partner in crime was missing in action. There weren’t any traces of him leaving the country at all and the branch he was supposed to be at said he was never supposed to arrive in the first place, not even the company knew where he was.

Olivia had a funny look on her face as she greeted Emerald but she brushed it off and entered her office. Emerald almost lost her footing when her eyes settled on her husband whom she had not seen in a week. He was more handsome than the last time she saw him. Pain flickered in Clayton’s eyes as it seemed that Emerald wasn’t happy to see him. Yesterday, he ran into Olivia in the Marriott Hotel when he went to have a business dinner there. Longing to see his wife who had been away for a week, he left in the middle of the dinner. But was saddened that she hadn’t come home. He couldn’t contact her as it seemed that Emerald had blacklisted him.

Camilla smiled that I thought was as fake as her husband. “Why not. Evenings with you are always fascinating.” Hayden’s gaze was still lingering when his lips curled in a smirk. “Speaking of fascination…” his orbs landed besides me and my body tensed. “Wouldn’t you introduce your wife, Theodore?” Instead of Hazel, my mother answered after beats of hesitation. “She’s Hazel, and Hazel, he’s Hayden, your husbands cousin and she’s Camilla, his wife.” She graced them with a tentative smile. Something dark and volatile emitted through me.

Jayden seemed to think of something and pulled me slightly away from his body, looking at me with his beautiful face full of concern. "Was it that guy from earlier? Your ex?" He asked, clenching his fists. I just nodded and started crying again, being comforted by him. "There’s just one thing I don’t understand. If Jayden is here, and he’s fine, who was that idiot talking about when he mentioned a loved one?" Maryna asked, intrigued. When I understood, my world stopped for a few moments, and the desperation took hold of me again. "Daon!" I called out my husband’s name like a prayer, hoping he was okay, but knowing Bobby, I was sure he wasn’t.

"That… but how? The reward will go to the first place… how can it know who will win? Did he already know about the one that will win? The Duke? He is the only candidate." Elton turned to see Emma that was also impressed, but hearing the words from Elton she turned to see the empty place on her side. Her shameless husband was hiding from her and hadn't come back from wherever he might be. She wasn't concerned as he will always appear at the right time. "Miss Silver Fairy, do you know where is that shameless man?" Emma shook her head as that husband of hers had escaped and left her alone with a sore waist in the room. "I… I don't know, Mr. Green Robe."

“She was… a friend.” He leans back, slow and tense, like he’s trying to find space to think. The silence between us grows heavier, uncomfortable. For a moment, I think about asking if he wants to step out and get some air, but I don’t. I just sit there quietly, watching him, waiting. “Her husband was abusive,” he continues. “Emotionally. Physically.” He swallows hard. “Se-sexually.” My chest tightens. Holy shit. I want to reach for him, to say something, anything but when he glances up, the look in his eyes roots me in place. It’s raw and haunted.

"What happened two years ago was entirely my fault. Please give me a chance to atone for my mistakes." My mom began to cry. "When I was blinded back then, no one was willing to take our case except you. You stepped in to help us, and Alex had never forgotten about that. He didn't want to mistreat you after the two of you got married. So, he'd always tried to give you the best of everything," my mom said. Then, she continued, "What did you do for him in return? You didn't even try to build a life together or make your marriage work. On top of that, you even helped his murderer destroy evidence! Do you have no conscience as a lawyer?"
