You Played Dead, So I'll Bury You
873 Views · Ongoing · Daisy Swift
For three years, I chased the ghost of my missing husband.
When I finally found him, my hysterical tears were met with chilling indifference.
"I'm not the billionaire heir you're looking for," Jaxson said coolly. "Stop stalking me. Mirelle is going to make me sleep on the couch again."
His devotion to another woman shredded my heart. I was ready to walk away forever.
Until I overheard him talking to his brother in the shadows.
"You faked your death on your honeymoon just to be with Mirelle," Kian hissed.
"And now you're faking amnesia to get the Cross Family Fortune back? Haven't you tortured Bryndis enough?"
Jaxson simply downed his drink.
"Mirelle is pregnant," he replied. "I have to bring her into the family officially. This is how I do it."
My despair instantly hardened to ash. The man I had mourned wasn't dead; he was just a monster.
I pulled out my phone and dialed my anxious in-laws, stopping them from rushing over.
