All Chapters of My Secret Husband: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I felt dizzy as I sensed something cold against my forehead. Slowly, I opened my eyes and saw a woman's face in front of me, causing my brow to furrow. She was gently wiping my forehead with a cold, wet towel, adding to my surprise. Where was I? What had happened?"You're finally awake," she said, offering me a smile.I gradually sat up and glanced around. This wasn't my room. The entire space was neat and tranquil. The decor was sleek, mostly black with hints of gray. The appliances and furniture looked luxurious, even the bed I was on. The ambiance, too, hinted at wealth. Clearly, this was a residence of affluent people."How are you feeling? Your body temperature is still low. You need plenty of rest," she continued.I turned my attention back to her as she spoke. She

"Agatha is in the hospital. Someone beat her on her way home from university."The first thought that crossed my mind when Ares shared Agatha's condition was, "How did he know?" But that thought swiftly disappeared as I arrived at the hospital with Elena. Even she was curious about how Ares found out so quickly and where he had come from.But even as the girlfriend, I didn't have the answer. Furthermore, why would someone beat Agatha? From what I knew, she was one of the most feared and high-ranking students at her university. This was the first time such an incident had happened to her. Was she being bullied?"Are you okay? You've been quite silent. What room is it?" Elena asked, but I was lost in my thoughts.

"Have you talked yet?" Elena asked me as soon as we got out of the building. I just looked at her and shook my head.After a short conversation earlier that ended in a misunderstanding, I never saw him again. I didn't even realize he had left his office. I tried calling him, but he wasn't answering.Then I also remembered that maybe that's why he didn't answer my call—he thought I was using Elena's cellphone. I still couldn't gather the courage to go home. Especially given today's situation."Didn't he say goodbye to you? I saw him leave earlier, seeming in a hurry," I heard Elena say again as we walked towards the parking lot.I just shrugged and quietly continued walking. Even the truth was bothering my mind. Before, the uneasiness would last only a few seconds e

As I glanced at my cell phone again, I saw the last message from that man.Unknown NumberText me once you get home. Please. Be safe. I bit my lower lip and realized I was typing a reply while my hands shook. To Unknown NumberThank you very much, Apollo. After sending it, I left that house completely. I hailed another taxi and headed to Elena's condo. My heavy heart added to the weight of my luggage.The rain was falling heavily again, darkening the sky. I no longer knew what to prioritize, whether it was Ares or my family. I felt utterly alone at that momen

"Ana, are you leaving?"I was almost startled when I heard that voice. I turned to find Lily, her hair still wet, standing there in front of me, a pleasant smile on her face as she continued to comb her hair."I'm sorry, Lily. I'm just going to head over to the Hacienda for a bit. I'll leave you with her for a while. Let me know if there's anything wrong," I explained, giving her a reassuring look before I left the room."It's alright. What about you? I'd love to go to the Hacienda too, but my mother would surely scold me. I saw Sir Anton and his business partners; they're all handsome!" She exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement, and she seemed to be giddy. I couldn't help but chuckle.As I made my way towards the bathroom to change my clothes, I could still hear Lily's animated commentary. When I came out, she was still at it, so I couldn't resist joining in."Did you see them? Do you know who they are?" I asked as I adjusted my attire.She rushed to the window and gazed out at
