The Husband In Law Novels & Stories

Having no clue what his grandpa would demand next, he didn’t make a promise so she wouldn’t be disappointed. "Is there a need for that?" she asked and pursed her lips. “Of course, we are married, isn’t it right that I meet my in - laws?” Matthew said with raised eyebrows. “I am your legal husband, so as long as we aren’t divorce yet, I still have the obligation to show myself to my in - laws.” The word divorce struck a chord in her. Kirsten looked away and turned her back on him as her tears refused to be contained within the boundary. She bit her lips to smother her sobs while her tears flowed unrestrained.

She stood up and faced him defiantly. “That kiss… and this one… it shouldn’t have happened. I’m a married man,” he retorted. His voice trembled, and his teary eyes were evidence of how deeply affected he was. He was lost, unable to sort out his thoughts and emotions, consumed by guilt. “I already know you’re getting a divorce; I even greeted your lawyer myself, remember? I don’t see anything wrong with us starting a relationship if you’ll soon be a free man.” Pablo began to laugh bitterly.

Rhea answered smugly. “Then you should know basic family law, right?” Alia replied, her tone light but her words sharp. “When a man and a woman are legally married, they are the lawful husband and wife. Tell me—where did you learn that the person the husband happens to love suddenly becomes the ‘real wife’? In legal terms, Ms. Caldwell, that’s not how it works. Under the law, you are what we call a mistress. Or…” her smile deepened, sweet but lethal. “Do you prefer being called my husband’s lover instead?” To Rhea, that smile looked like Alia was calling her a complete fool.

“Don’t talk about you and other men in any way, even if it’s way into the future. I don’t want to hear it.” I raised an eyebrow, a mix of frustration and amusement bubbling up. “Why do you care so much, Cole? I am never going to tell you what’s going in my life if you keep reacting like this.” He exhaled sharply, clearly trying to keep his cool, “I am your husband legally and that means something, I don’t know what. But it definitely means something.” I couldn't help but let out a small, incredulous laugh. “So, you’re saying you’re the authority on what every guy is thinking because you are my husband and I have to just listen to you.”

It was clear he wasn't ready to give up. Before I could say anything, Brian replied, "I missed my chance before, but I'm not going to miss it again. I hope you can at least give me a second chance. I know what I'm doing. To be honest, I've been married too and got divorced, just like you." I was taken aback. After all, Alicia had never mentioned this to me.

“You think you’ve got everything figured out, don’t you? But let me ask you something. Where’s your wife, Lucas? She left you, didn't she? You're so good at getting everything to work out in your favor, everything falling down before your feet… except your marriage.” The jab hits harder than I expect, but I don’t let it show. I just sit there, listening as he takes his shots. “Unlike you,” he continues, “some of us actually value the sacred bond of marriage. I don’t intend to fail. Julie and I? We’re going to stay married. Right up until death do us part.” I smile. “Let’s hope you live long, then, Mr. O’Brien.” “Are you threatening me?”

My turn. "You taught me that love isn’t supposed to hurt. That being seen isn’t a threat. That softness isn't a weakness. I vow to walk beside you, not in front or behind. I vow to laugh with you, build with you, and lean on you when I can’t do it alone." By the time the rings were exchanged, everyone was crying, Even Raymond. "By the power vested in me," the officiant said, "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride."

Yesterday I had been with Harl, nothing sexual, just talking and laughing and today, I woke up to this message. My husband ignored me for hours, and all that he could give me in return was a picture of him with another woman. My hands tightened around the phone as I stared at the picture that burned through me. How did we get to here? What happened to him keeping his actions hidden, letting me believe that I would have to see it? “Is anyone home?” Lennie’s voice echoed through the house as she walked into the room.

Tears freely flowed from her eyes. The door banged open. Revealing a shirtless man. He has long, dark purple hair, a sharp jaw, emerald eyes, and dark skin. Xia looked at him. She saw the man she longed to have in her life. This man is her husband. Ren Liu Wang is a great doctor and owner of first-class hospitals all over the country. The man is ten years her senior. Even though her attitude towards him was not favorable, the man continued to favor her.

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
