Secret Billionaire’s Contract Bride: Marrying My Enemy’s Lover

Chapter 80

I missed my wife. Getting on that plane had been the hardest thing I’d had to do as of late but I had to leave her to work. The time away in Paris had been good for us. I loved every single second of it. We were much closer than we had been in a long long time.

I wasn’t overly worried about the Prince Charming wannabe, I trusted my wife and if she wasn’t worried then I had no reason to be worried either.

She had my name, not his and I was the one who she was coming home to, not him. I should have had all the confidence in the world but I was still so damn annoyed at that man. He looked so smug in that hotel lobby.

I had my suspicions that my wife had her reservations because she didn’t like Angela.

“I just want this whole mess behind me and I don’t want your sleazy brother to get even a cent of my money.”

“We all want the same thing here.” I sighed, digging into my pocket and looking at my wife’s messages.

She was on set right now and I knew she would only wrap up much later. I hated that we had to be far apart but it was only two weeks then she would be back in my arms again.
