The Wife No One Knows
From Lies To Love/Lummy's Pen
Chapter One: The Wife No One Knows I stepped into the sleek, modern lobby of Brennan Enterprises, my heart racing with excitement. Today was meant to be a surprise—something I hadn’t done in a long time. I missed the early days of our marriage, when Adrian and I would steal little moments together. Lately, work had consumed him—meetings, business trips, endless responsibilities. But today, I wanted to remind him that I was still here. Still his wife. The lobby buzzed with quiet conversations, employees glued to their phones or hurrying past. A normal morning for them—but for me, this was special. I carried a carefully wrapped gift in my bag: a limited-edition watch Adrian had wanted for months. A small gesture, but one that mattered. I approached the front desk with a bright smile. “Good morning. I’m here to see Mr. Adrian Brennan. I’m his wife, Lily.” The receptionist’s eyes widened for a fraction of a second before she masked her surprise with a polite smile. But I saw it—that

Chapter Two: The Truth Hurts I sat in the dim living room, my body trembling, my chest so heavy it felt like I couldn’t breathe. Tears kept falling, no matter how hard I tried to stop them. I thought I was strong. I thought I could handle anything. But nothing had ever hurt like this. Adrian. The man I loved. The man I trusted. The man I had built my life around. Had been lying to me all along. I went to his office today to surprise him, to remind him that we were still a team. That after everything, we were still us. But I was wrong. The name Sophia wouldn’t leave my head. The way they called her Mrs. Brennan. The way everyone knew her—but no one ever told me. I had given up everything for Adrian. I sold my father’s land, the last piece of his legacy, so Adrian could build his company. I stood by him, supported him, believed in him. I thought we were building something together. But now… I realized I was building a dream alone. The front door opened, snapping me back to rea

Chapter Three I sat at the kitchen table, gripping the edge as I watched Adrian get ready for work. He moved quickly, as if nothing was wrong, as if last night’s conversation never happened. After our talk, I had called his sister, hoping she would remind him of the family we once dreamed of. I could barely look at him, but I had to try. “Adrian,” I said, my voice unsteady. “Your sister called yesterday. She wants to see us. She said it’s been too long since we visited.” Adrian paused, his hand stopping mid-air as he adjusted his tie. His face darkened, and he narrowed his eyes at me. “What did you tell her?” His cold tone felt like a slap. I swallowed the hurt. “Nothing, Adrian. I didn’t say anything about… us. She just wants to see you. Is that so wrong?” He turned to me fully, his jaw tight. “Don’t involve my family in this, Lily. Whatever is happening between us stays between us. The last thing I need is you running to them with your emotions.” His words cut deep. I tried t

From Lies To Love/Lummy's Pen
: Chapter Four The sun rose too fast, dragging me into a day I wasn’t ready for. My eyes were swollen from crying, my heart hollow from the pain Adrian had caused. His smile at her, the way he kissed her hand, his voice declaring his love for Sophia—it all played in my head, over and over, like a cruel joke I couldn’t escape. I sat on the edge of my bed, staring at the divorce lawyer’s number on my phone. My fingers trembled as I pressed the call button. A polite voice answered. The assistant scheduled my appointment for the afternoon. It was done. I was filing for divorce. I should have felt relief. Instead, a crushing sadness settled over me. I had given everything to this marriage. I had fought for Adrian, sacrificed so much of myself—only for him to destroy me without looking back. He wasn’t worth my tears anymore. But still, they fell. I gripped the steering wheel, listening to the rain hit the windshield. The city blurred past me as I drove, my mind tangled in too many th

From Lies To Love/Lummy's Pen
Chapter Five: Aftermath and Betrayal I woke up with a start. Light sliced through the dim room, my head pounding, my body sore. For a moment, I didn’t know where I was. The sheets beneath me were unfamiliar. The air smelled of something that wasn’t mine. And then it all came rushing back. The man. The stranger. The night. Panic surged through me as I bolted upright. My clothes were in disarray, my skin humming with the aftermath of what we’d done. My breath came in short gasps. What have I done? I turned my head, my heart hammering. He lay beside me, his back rising and falling in slow, steady breaths. So different from the broken man of last night, the one who clung to me like I was his last lifeline. Now, in the cold light of day, I couldn’t even look at him. I scrambled out of bed, grabbing my clothes with shaking hands. Shame burned my skin. I had come here to escape, to breathe, to clear my mind. Instead, I had done the unthinkable. I needed to leave. Now. As I reached fo

From Lies To Love/Lummy's Pen
Chapter Six: The Unwanted Encounter I took a deep breath as I sat in my car, staring at the lawyer's building ahead. Today was the day. I had made up my mind. Nothing, absolutely nothing, would stop me from walking into that office, signing those papers, and ending everything with Adrian. Not the pain, not the humiliation, not the past. I was done. I had to be. Adrian had pushed me too far, and now it was my turn to push back. I didn't care how messy it was going to get, how much my heart would shatter in the process. I had made a promise to myself: I would be free. My palms dug deeper into the skin of the wheel as my eyes fixed on the road ahead. Familiar streets now seemed to mesh together as my mind started running riots of memories of Adrian's lies, his deception. I couldn't afford distraction with thoughts of him-not when I was so near the point of finally assuming my life. A weird, peculiar kind of determination was building up in my head, a fire I hadn't felt for a long

Chapter Seven: The Revelation of the Truth - Lily's POV My heart was racing in my chest as my fingers wrapped around the cool metal handle and turned it, the door to the law office creaking open. I tried to steady my breath, but my pulse refused to cooperate. I had to do this. I had to finally bring an end to the nightmare that was my marriage to Adrian. But as I stepped inside, I could already feel him behind me. The steady rhythm of Simeon's footsteps echoed in the silence, growing louder, until it was impossible to pretend he wasn't there. Lily," his voice cut through the air, smooth and commanding, yet underlying that was something sharper. I resisted the urge to turn around, to acknowledge him. Instead, I focused on the receptionist, my voice barely a whisper. "I have an appointment with Mr. Coleman," I said, the words coming out far frailer than I had meant them to. Before the receptionist could say anything, I heard it-his voice, low and insistent. "I'll wait right here."

Chapter Eight: A DealLily's POVThe air was thick in the car as I followed Simeon. He didn't say much, his expression unreadable as his hands gripped the steering wheel. I wasn't quite sure what made me follow him. Perhaps it was the curiosity, the allure of answers, or that strange pull toward him.Simeon had dropped a bomb on me back at the lawyer's office. Adrian's lies and betrayals had already wrecked my trust in humanity, and now here I was, driving behind a man who seemed to hold pieces of a puzzle I wasn't even sure I wanted to solve.My breath caught as his sleek black car turned into a gated estate. The iron gates alone looked to cost more than my car. They slowly creaked open, allowing a glimpse of the sprawling mansion beyond them. The house-or rather, the palace-was a masterpiece in modern architecture: towering glass windows, cascading fountains, and perfectly manicured gardens.I parked behind him, getting out of my car a little apprehensively. The cold night air bit a

Chapter Nine: The Locked DoorLily's POVMorning sunlight came through the high windows and delicately beaded on the furniture in a sheen of the most expensive varnish. None of this brought me tranquility. Images from the previous day, the contract, Simeon's incomprehensible behavior, and this house-a prison-end.I couldn't merely sit in my room. The quiet of this house was constricting. It was the kind that always made one have the impression somebody was watching one-even when there really was no one around.I swung into the passage, where I sank into deep carpet and promenaded haphazardly. The corridors were really endlessly long, bathed in eerie quiet-but every little squeak from a floor made me jump.And then I saw it:.A door stood at the far end of a narrow hall, plain and unadorned from all the others I had passed. There was something about it that felt… off. It wasn't just a door but a boundary, and I couldn't help but wonder what lay behind.My hand hovered over the doorknob

From Lies To Love/Lummy's Pen
Chapter Ten: The Mafia Lord's Double LifeLily's POVThe moment we passed those heavy-duty gates, it was like I stepped into a completely different world-an even more treacherous one. Hard-faced guys with black suits seemed to block each street; others casually grasped arms that were big weapons, which, to me, seemed simply a part of the accessories to carry. Then my tummy twisted, like something started wrong inside me.From the moment Simeon had stepped out of the car, the whole ambiance had changed. All heads turned toward him. The men—they looked like bad news—were already going into bows, some right down almost to their ankles, as if he was some sort of king or something."Welcome, sir," one of them greeted in a deep, respectful tone, his head down.Simeon didn't even acknowledge them. He walked past them with this calm, calculated air, his black suit pristine and commanding in his movements. I followed him hesitantly, legs feeling weak beneath me.What the hell was this?I stuck
