Chapter 139 “Tori p> “This marriage is a lie, you’re trying to convince the entire city that you love the devil. If I were in your situation, I would lose my fucking mind. But Catherine, you’re now incorporating that lie into your real life, and that could have pushed me
Chapter 138 How does she know that? Theo’s meeting with King Corp wasn’t exactly broadcast on the news. I have wondered who this source of hers was, and now I’m beginning to think it was definitely someone working in the Corp. I nibbled on my nail. There was someone leaking
Chapter 137 “Are you okay?” Tori asked, probably worried, because I was chuckling at random. I sighed heavily before rubbing my forehead. “I’m in a dark place, Tori. I’m lost in a way I can’t find myself anymore, and it’s scary. It’s only been like three months, and it already
Chapter 136 I sat up slowly, the process making my entire body feel like it was going to break, bones and all. But I successfully made it, resting my back against the headboard, releasing a relieved sigh. I reached for my glasses and put them on. I still can’t believe
Chapter 135 Athena faced me with her hand on her chest. “Are you insinuating that my brother’s a criminal p> “N-No, I — “ She broke into a pearl of laughter. I just stared at her, confused as she basked in amusement for a whole minute. “You should have seen

Chapter 130 My blood ran cold, and my breathing turned shallow. I had no idea how I found it in me to form a smile. “Contract? I’ve no idea what you mean.” I grabbed my purse to leave, hastening my steps, with my heart feeling as if it were about
Chapter 129 [Music: I Should’ve Let You Burn By Raviel Blackthorn] I passed a quick look, and everyone was watching us. Great! Right at the center of high-class judgment. How’s this gonna help? Ares yanked me back up, my leg still trapped around his waist. “Everyone will think my wife
