SHE IS MY WIFE
last update2026-02-18 14:30:26

Casper’s mouth stayed open for a second too long, like his mind refused to accept the sound that had just entered his office.

“My daughter?” he said again, slower this time, as if saying it differently could make it less true.

His eyes moved from Ethan to Selene, then back to Ethan, searching for a crack in their faces that would prove this was a mistake.

For a second, he almost expected Ethan to laugh and say this was all a misunderstanding. But Ethan’s expression did not change. There was no

  • BEFORE THE TRUTH WAS SPOKEN

    Roland’s grip tightened around the phone as the vehicle continued through the evening traffic. The excitement he had felt moments earlier disappeared, and it was replaced by a cold pressure inside his chest.“What about Dr. Arnold Wagner?” he asked. “Speak clearly.”The insider lowered his voice. “Sir, there has been a serious breach in our secret operations. Several areas that were never supposed to connect have been accessed through the hospital system.”Roland sat forward. “What areas?”“We are still checking,” the man replied. “But Arnold’s access records were altered. Someone used his credentials to enter restricted files, and several documents appear to have been copied.”Roland glanced at Ethan’s invitation still glowing on his other phone. “Which documents?”“I cannot confirm everything yet,” the insider said. “We found activity around insurance billing, supplier agreements, internal approval records, and files linked to outside accounts.”Roland’s fingers tightened around the

  • A TABLE FOR TWO

    His assistant checked the attached instructions. “Grand Master Ethan is known for avoiding public political displays. He may not want reporters turning the dinner into a campaign event before both of you reach an understanding.”One investor leaned against the table. “Powerful men do not meet publicly when discussing the future. They speak privately first, decide what they want, and allow the cameras to see only the final result.”Roland nodded slowly. “Then he intends to speak honestly.”For a brief moment, Felix Vale entered his thoughts. Felix had lost his job and licence after an unknown visitor caused trouble inside the hospital. Hilton had acted with unusual speed, and the timing of it all still troubled Roland.He looked at his assistant. “Did Xavier Group explain why Ethan chose me?”“No, sir,” the assistant answered. “They only said the discussion concerns Verdanis, healthcare, and the future.”The answer pushed Felix out of Roland’s mind. Healthcare and the future were the e

  • A PRIVATE AUDIENCE?

    Roland read the invitation three times before he allowed himself to believe it was real. The Xavier Group seal, encrypted verification code, and executive signature were all present. No campaign office in Verdanis could have forged something this secure.Roland checked the digital signature again and compared it with previous documents issued by Xavier Group. Every security marker matched. Even the private access code had been generated through the same encrypted system used for Khagan Council communications.For the first time, he stopped searching for signs of fraud and began considering what the invitation could give him.He looked at his assistant. “Did Xavier Group contact you directly?”The assistant nodded quickly. “Their executive office verified the request twice, sir. They confirmed your name, your position, and the time of the meeting.”Roland returned his attention to the screen. “And Grand Master Ethan requested this personally?”“That is what they said,” the assistant r

  • THE UNTOUCHABLE DOCTOR

    “Speaking of problems, I heard your assistant, Felix Vale, lost everything including his job and medical licence. What do you have to say about that?” Roland barely reacted. “I already know.”“He wasn't just dismissed,” The other investor said. “His licence was suspended the same day.”“He was enforcing your policies,” the oldest investor added. “Why did Dr. Hilton sacrifice him?”Roland shrugged. “Felix was only an assistant. Assistants are replaceable.”One investor frowned. “Replacing a man is easy,” he said. “Replacing someone who already knows every hidden corner of this business is much harder. If Felix ever talks, he could become dangerous.”Roland gave a dismissive wave. “Fear keeps loose tongues under control. Felix knows exactly what happens to people who betray us.”“But from what I hear, he was protecting this secret operation of ours,” the investor insisted.Roland's expression hardened slightly. “He was protecting it badly and without sense.”“He forgot the first rule,”

  • DARK SECRETS

    Three days after the incident at Verda Medical Center, the executive boardroom overlooked the capital through walls of polished glass. Every detail reflected success, from the imported furniture to the campaign banners showing Roland Verda smiling beside grateful patients. Around the long conference table sat three of the corporation's largest private investors, each holding a confidential report while security guards stood outside the locked doors.Roland stood before a large presentation screen wearing an expensive tailored suit. He clicked to the next slide with an easy smile. “Our expansion plan will establish new rehabilitation centers across four provinces,” he said. “We'll also introduce specialist clinics, mobile health units, and advanced diagnostic facilities. These projects will strengthen Verda Medical Corporation's reputation while increasing revenue.”One investor leaned back impatiently and tapped the table with a gold pen. “Cut the public speech, Roland,” he said. “No

  • EVIDENCE OF A KILLER

    Ethan adjusted the strap of the old document bag across his shoulder. “Now that is a good lesson for you to learn.”He turned and walked away without looking back. Behind him, Felix continued begging, but the sound grew weaker as Ethan entered the main lobby.The people who had mocked Ethan earlier now moved out of his path. Some stared at him with fear, while others lowered their heads in shame. Ethan ignored them all.A middle-aged man who had witnessed the confrontation stepped forward hesitantly. “Sir,” he called, “I judged you the moment you walked in. I was wrong.”Ethan paused without turning around. “Then remember today,” he said quietly. “Judge people by their actions, not their appearance.”The man lowered his head. “I will never forget it.”The weight of the document bag felt different now. Before the veteran’s death, the evidence inside it had been numbers, account records, and secret payments. After what Ethan had witnessed, every page carried a human cost.He tightened h
