Novel & Cerita Scarlet Overkill Husband

He’d held her up when her atrophied legs gave out on the physical therapy mats, catching her every single time she fell. He really had pushed back his naval recruitment for six months, trading his own career momentum for endless hours in uncomfortable hospital chairs. That was the trap. How do you fight back against the man who put you back together? Every time Theron snapped at her, every time he looked at her scars with that thinly veiled pity or left her alone in the drafty guest house, her mind dragged her right back to the ICU. The guilt was heavy and paralyzing. It was why she forgave the cruelty. Why she swallowed the neglect and sat quietly through his mother's daily insults.

The problem was that there were too many pieces pointing in the same direction now. Dimitri, Zedd said again, quieter now. I couldn't dismiss it anymore, no matter how badly I wanted to. The possibility I had been refusing to name finally took shape, and my chest tightened as another thought followed close behind. Her husband. Scarlett had been married to a man from Ironclaw, a man whose name she had refused to give me until the question alone left her struggling to breathe. My grip tightened around the cup. The maids continued moving through the room, the ordinary sounds of their work fading beneath the pounding of my heart.

Her voice shook as she spoke to hundreds of thousands of viewers. "My husband and I grew up together. My dad died saving his life. That woman has no shame! She tried to seduce my husband…" I lifted my gaze and looked at Miles, steady and cold. He fumbled and shut the stream off, guilt written all over his face. "She's making things up. You have to trust me." I gave a short, dismissive laugh and picked up my phone, dialing. "Hello, I'd like to file a report for defamation…"

"No. You've forced my hand with your shortsightedness. Any opportunity you might have had to change the requirements of our alliance have passed. You will come with me, and we will get married. That is final." "I won't." She bared her teeth in a challenge, daring him to make her. The lines around his eyes relaxed, and he leaned away from her. Without breaking eye contact, he said, "We will do it your way, then. Kill the maid." Scar's heart shot into her throat when the rusted goblin sword lifted from Hazel's neck, intending to stab him. "No! Wait!" The sword stopped

After my husband, Leo Barton, sent me back to my hometown for a month, he used this window to remove my daughter’s kidney to save his childhood sweetheart, Rosette Smith. While his childhood sweetheart was rescued, my daughter caught a severe case of acute kidney failure due to an infection. When I rushed to the hospital to see my daughter, she strained a smile and whimpered, “Mom… I saved Aunt Rosette. Does that mean… does that mean that Dad won’t leave us?”

Neither was willing to let go. Haley sighed in exasperation. "What are you two doing? If we don't hurry, we'll miss the plane!" Shane glared at Zac, his voice carrying a warning tone. "Let go." Zac did not back down, gripping the suitcase tighter. "You let go." Shane sneered internally. "Seriously, Zac? I'm her husband!" Zac shifted the suitcase closer to himself, a smile playing on his lips but his eyes unwavering. "And I'm your brother-in-law."

“I would have been proud to announce my pregnancy, but I discovered something else.” “Scarlett…” Scarlett laughed as she wiped away her tears. “With the pain I was feeling, I kept quiet and hide for a few years because I was ashamed that I disobeyed rather than do my responsibility to the family.” Scarlett looked up to wipe away her tears, but it was a traitor because regardless of what she did, tears remained in her eyes. She turned to face the chairman, who had been silent. “Do you know who my husband is? You seem to know him,” she smirked. “Yes, Dominic Stone is my husband.”

Scarlet did not want to discourage Jim, but given his scumbag-like behavior in the past, even she would not choose to marry him if she were in Riley’s shoes. “I’ve already stood up for you in front of Riley, but she’s still unwilling to forgive you. She’s extremely determined not to get married to you. If you don’t want to stay single forever, you’d better marry someone else.” Scarlet wanted him to know that he should not have any hope in Riley anymore.

She stopped directly in front of Zeta close enough to smell her rage. Scarlet smiled. “I see,” Scarlet said quietly, her voice silk wrapped around steel, “my step daughter has been the only one brave...or stupid...enough to kill my lovely husband..the Lycan.” The hall gasped. Zeta’s head snapped up. Her eyes burned into Scarlet’s. Scarlet leaned in closer, lowering her voice so only Zeta could hear. “I don’t make mouth like you all,” she whispered. “I take action.” Her lips curved slightly. “And you should all understand something,” she continued softly, venom sweet on her tongue. “That lowly girl you always mocked? The one you called unlucky, worthless, disposable?”

Scarlett said coldly, “I’m warning you. If you dare tell my family—especially my dad or brothers—that I was married, I’ll skin you alive.” “Of course I’m telling them!” James growled through the pain, standing upright with righteous fury blazing in his eyes. “Uncle Taylor and your three brothers have treated you like a princess your whole life. They’d never let anyone hurt you. That jerk Everett married you in secret and still had the nerve to make you suffer. You’re just gonna let him get away with it?” Scarlett had already taken her seat, casually flipping through the menu. “I chose him. I’ll deal with it.”
