The restaurant's atmosphere got sour as the three people looked at each other, but Hadley was more at a loss because the man in front of her was just looking at the man with pure disgust.“What is going on? Hubby, did you know this old woman?” Hadley asked Maurice, who was still stiffly sitting down.“Don't call me an old woman. I am sure Maurice would disagree with that,” the woman said in a sultry voice and Hadley got offended, wondering why the woman kept talking like she was acquainted with Maurice.“I do not know who you are, but I am going to say this, leave this place now before I drag you out,” Hadley threatened, but the woman just snickers, waving her off.“Looks like you have a fierce wife here, you must have gotten lucky with her…..since I heard you cannot withstand the touch of a woman,” the woman said in a low voice and Hadley noticed that Maurice's expression was off.Ever since the woman stepped into the restaurant he had not said anything and now when the woman was tor
Exchange Fate, Entrapped To My Sister's Husband His Painful Pasts
Hadley does not know why she suddenly does not want to hear the man say anything again. It was like she would not be able to handle the truth.“I was eleven years back then, and we were having a party at the ancestral mansion, but I got overwhelmed by the number of people at the party that I went out for some air, Maurice says, closing his eyes as he would rather not relish the memories at all. “That was the last thing I remembered,” he says and Hadley was beyond speechless. She could already picture the scenario, but she knew she could not possibly ask him to stop talking when she was the one who asked him to tell her everything, but it was more than what she bargained for. “My uncle got me kidnapped to get my grandfather to hand over the group to him….isn't that funny?” Maurice joked, but Hadley could sense the pain in his voice.The room felt gloomy with Maurice's pause and Hadley knew what was to come might not be what she could handle, so she decided to cut her off.“I think we

The drive to the ancestral mansion was quiet and awkward and Maurice decided to be nice towards his wife, but Hadley's words stopped him. “Don't you dare even think of it,” she warned and Maurice gulped his saliva in fear. “I am sorry I should have listened to you,” Maurice apologized, looking at Hadley with a teasing face and Hadley knew he was not being sincere with her.God, how can a man be shameless? He didn't let her get out of bed until when they started preparing for dinner, and she could not even complain about how sore she was, but he wanted to get close to her. In his dreams.“Stay at least 3 meters away from him,” Hadley says, not even bothering to listen to Maurice's words.

The man just confessed his love for her, but it was not to just her but to the whole family that was present at the table. She already hated herself being clumped in about her father throwing her under the bus and Carolina, who was making sure she regretted her actions, but Hadley was happy that the man stood for her even though she still found it unbelievable.It was like she was dreaming, but she knew it was no dream, she was just about to be kicked off the family.“What?

Maurice was saying but Hadley disengaged from the hug and slapped his arm."If I am not that good why do you love me then?" She asked and the man smiled.

Nicholas asked and Hadley creased her eyebrow at him. She knew the man wanted her to be curious and it was just as he wanted she could not help but be curious."What? Should I be curious about how a psychopath's mind works?" Hadley asked and the man chuckled. "You really amuse me…Hadley," he chuckles and Hadley shakes her head at the man's words."Your husband…he owes me a life," Nicholas says, closing the distance between them at the table and Hadley had to shift a little bit backward to create space between them.His words caught Hadley off guard and she could not understand his words.

Are they in pain?” Hadley asked an obvious question, but Ella just chuckled. “I don't think that we should worry about me because I feared that any of us would be able to escape from here.” Ella said.“No, we would be able to escape, believe me, okay?” Hadley assured, but she knew she was the one that needed that assurance.“But how? Did you think we can..” Ella was saying, but she broke into tears. “Why are you crying, Ella? Can you not handle the pain?” Her mother asked, and Hadley got worried.“I'm sorry, I got you all into all this mess.” she said, but Hadley shook her head. “That's

The whole ballroom fell into silence, and Nicholas's gesture raised an eyebrow to everyone in the room, and they were all curious as to what Hadley was going to do. “What are you doing, Mr. Sanders?” Hadley asked through gritted teeth warning the man to behave herself, and she wondered why Maurice was silent on the matter.He wasn't that quiet, so she understood what was going on. Maybe she should be worried after all.“I am asking you to dance, Mrs. Elliot? Did you find it so wrong?” he asked, and she hissed hearing his words.She was sure that he was trying to get Maurice to lose his temper in front of those people, and when Hadley started wanting to lash out at the man, Maurice interrupted her.“You are really funny, Mr. Sanders I almost mistaken you for a comedian instead of a businessman.
