Tara Westover Husband Novels & Stories

The man she referred to was her husband, Nolan. "Is that a promise?" "Yeah, pinky promise," Hailey said, playfully pinching his cheek. Hailey stood up after making a promise with James and turned to Tara. "A-Are you really married to that man?" Tara stuttered, referring to Nolan. Hailey nodded quietly, with a smile. Tara never imagined her friend marrying into the most powerful family. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier," Hailey added. Tara nodded. "It's okay, as long as you're happy with him."

My disappointment was probably written all over my face, because he held me tight and said tenderly, “I’ll try not to go overseas as much after those kids settle in. Once I start staying at home more, I’m sure we’ll have our own baby soon. Believe me.” Staring at his familiar features, I remembered how he had hugged me just like this, promising me he would come back soon… right before his flight to Switzerland. He had come back, but his heart remained in the Alps. “Alright.” I forced a smile and watched him rush away. Since the New York administrative system did not contain any records of our marriage, that meant the marriage certificate we obtained in Vegas had no effect. That saved me the

Only thousands of students, professors, cafeteria workers, security guards… He held my hand as we walked down the aisle and said to everyone, “Today, Westhaven University’s princess, Jennifer Walsh, officially becomes my wife.” At that moment, I believed I had finally escaped that cold family and found a real home. But now— The mother-in-law standing before me, criticizing my background and manners… The same mother-in-law who refused to attend my wedding five years ago… The elegant lady calling me “ill-mannered”… The woman hugging my son and calling him “grandson”…

'Tara asked, "thanks to almighty" she replied, "and how is your husband?" she asked, "he's at home sleeping" 'Tara replied, "Have you moved to another level in your relationship?" she asked, "nothing changes" 'Tara replied, "You mean he didn't touch you last night?" she asked, "Ma'am, don't worry, he will touch me one day" 'Tara says, "I believe you" she replied, "Are you hearing from your parents?" she asked,

Muted. “Did she cheat on you?” Tara asked bluntly. “No,” I said quickly. “It’s not that.” “Then what?” she pressed. I swallowed hard. “Did you know Lena and Alexander Knight were once married?” The words felt heavy leaving my mouth, like I was handing her something fragile and broken. “What?” Tara almost screamed. “Married?” She stared at me like I had just told her the earth was flat. “Yes,” I said quietly. She scoffed. “You’re joking.”

“Maybe she felt something for him and tried convincing herself that it was love. But soon, she realized it wasn't. She was having an affair with Richard. He made plans to divorce his wife and run off with your mom after his father died. But your mom was already sick. That didn't stop her, though. It didn't stop Richard either. He made sure the best doctors treated her. She was going to get better, I was sure of that. But I couldn't let them break my poor daughter’s heart like that. Tara didn't deserve that. She loved her husband. He’s the only man she’s ever loved.

"I'm like this because I learned from you. You used women to satisfy your desires." "But, Tara, you're still young! I want you to get married and have a happy family in the future." Tara laughed. "Married? Happy family?" She burst into even louder laughter. "You mean like your marriage with Mom? Like Sasha's parents' marriage?" My heart felt a stab when Tara said that. Apparently, the shattered state of my marriage traumatized Tara. She doesn't believe in love and happy marriages.

“But, how is it that you were married to her all these years and didn’t even know what she liked to eat? That’s pretty pathetic for a husband…” “Ex-husband,” Adam corrected with a smirk. “What about you?” I snapped, glaring at Arlington. “Your pathetic pining for my wife from a distance, for years, has clearly gotten you nowhere. Talk about pathetic…” Arlington froze for a moment before smiling politely. “Not so distant, I admit.” “You are not the father of my child,” I replied, stepping aside for a nurse who had come down the corridor. “And neither are you, Adam.” “You’re sure of that?” Adam asked, crossing his arms. “How many times have you slept with Alice over the years? A dozen? Less?”

He apologized sincerely. Bryant sat purposely. He sighed softly before he began. “ There's something you should know son, your parents aren't going to direct your life but give you the support you need. , And more also, if you truly love someone you should trust the person with your secrets. In marriage, there shouldn't be secrets. When another woman is involved in your marriage, you start doubting each other. I hope you cherish what you have now before you lose it. You're the one hurting her, Richard.” “It was all my oversight, I failed to see it that way.”

For the first time, I let down all my defenses. I spoke with complete honesty. “Zachary, the man you saw at the gate today is Simon Castor. We grew up together. Before I married you, I was very fond of him. In fact…” I paused before continuing, “Both my refusal to marry and my eventual decision to marry you were because of him. But now, I am no longer certain that my feelings for him are what they once were.” Zachary held my gaze, his eyes dark and unwavering.
