All Chapters of Hired My Ex's Sister as Wife: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Author's POV“Who are you?” Hannah managed to ask, shielding her face away from the man’s piercing gaze.The man in question was Alfred’s right-hand man, Dillon Chambers. He had a visible scar on the side of his face, one that Hannah could tell was from a knife wound. But his terrifying face was in contrast to his complete appearance. He wore a beige suit that showcased his intimidating figure, matching his dark blonde hair, with a wrist chain with a scorpion emblem on it.The emblem caught Hannah’s attention. She had heard of many mob groups in the city who associated their groups with various animals, bullhorns, snakes, scorpions, spiders, and more, but never had she come across one.As this thought crossed her mind, she felt even more frightened.Dillon had been rescued by Alfred some years ago from a group of gamblers he had been indebted to, and since then he had been in charge of Alfred’s underground dealings. Drug trafficking, mobbing, covering up his fraud charges, and anythin

Author’s POVHannah’s breath caught in her throat as Nicolas’ words sank in, in confusion. If he didn’t save her, then who did and why? She shifted her gaze away, looking around and scratching her head in confusion. She glanced back at him, searching his face for answers. However, seeing how calm he was made her nerves flare even more.“You didn’t save me?” Hannah asked with a raised brow.“Then why are you here? What is this?” Hannah asked, a sudden fear creeping up her bones.She couldn’t trust anyone, least of all, anyone with a huge status as the Cranes.Nicolas’ expression remained composed, although there was a flicker of emotion in his eyes, a look of understanding. He raised his hands, approaching Hannah cautiously,“It’s okay Ms. Young, you don’t have to be afraid anymore. You’re safe with us.” He said assuredly.Hannah shot him a cautious yet softened gaze as Nicolas continued, “I didn’t save you,” he repeated, his tone gentler, “because it wasn’t an act of rescue, it was a

Author’s POVHannah stared at the message, her heart pounding in her chest. “I know where Lily is.” Those words shattered everything around her. Her hand shook as she held the phone. It couldn’t be real, could it? After all this time, someone finally knew where her sister was. The one person who ruined her life. The one that she had been trying to forget, but couldn’t. Nicolas noticed her change in expression. His eyes narrowed, “What’s wrong?” He asked, his tone laced with suspicion. Immediately, Hannah’s mind raced, but she couldn’t tell him, not yet. If Nicolas found out someone knew where Lily was, he would certainly tell it to Ethan and things could spiral out of control faster than she could handle. But she needed answers. She needed revenge. “Nothing,” Hannah said quickly, slipping her phone back into her pocket slowly.“Just a reminder about something.”Nicolas didn’t seem to buy it, but before he could say anything, the two men from the SUV reached them. They looked as col

Author’s POV“Conditions?” Ethan asked, a little surprised, his eyes narrowing at Hannah’s boldness. He could not help but wonder where her sudden boldness had come from. He had expected her to bend, to follow his lead, not make demands of her own. This was absurd. Hannah seemed not as weak or easily controlled as he thought.Staring at her now, his fingers itch in irritation. He was used to being in charge, having the final say in everything, whether in his personal life or business-related, but here Hannah was, his new wife, standing her ground, and it incensed him.Hannah folded her arms with a stern look seeing how nonchalant he seemed about her request. “You’re hardly in a position to make demands, Hannah,” Ethan said with a low intimidating growl.At this moment, Hannah’s heart was pounding, but she wouldn’t let him see her fear. She knew if she was going to survive in Ethan’s world and not have him disregard her as just some girl he’s married to, she’d have to play her cards c

Author’s POVHannah’s steps quickened as she moved down the long corridor, and then suddenly stopped, realizing she didn’t know where she was going.Ethan had instructed her to stay in his mansion tonight and then have her things packed the next day, to ensure her safety.Much against her will, she finally gave in to his instruction, but now she realized she didn’t even know which room she was supposed to stay.“Let me show you to your room,” Reginald said,- approaching her with slow measured steps.He stopped in front of Hannah and a warm smile appeared on his face,“This way, Ms. Young.” He said and walked away, leading her to her room.Hannah heaved a tired sigh and then followed him.Her heart was still pounding in her chest as she followed him, the words from the mysterious text still echoing in her mind. “Midnight, the old pier. Come alone.”Hannah was unsettled. All she wanted was to get to her room and then sneak out before midnight, but with Ethan’s suspicions and watchful ey
