    Let  Chapter 265 ckmailing +8 Pearls


    Everyone was mesmerized by the romantic proposal Alessandro Valentino had nned for his wife. Adam had thought he might feel jealousy, but instead, he only felt happiness for Mia when he saw the pure love reflected in her eyes as she looked at her husband. He shook his head, smiling hopelessly and thinking that kind of love only happened in fairytales or movies. In real life, true love rarely found a heart that could cherish it.


    But Alessandro and Aria were the exception. He nced around the crowded hall, where everyone was capturing and recording the couple''s heartfelt confession. He felt relieved that, for once, the media had finally left him alone. But then, he suddenly realized ire was no longer by his side. Concerned, he looked around, searching for his wife-only to spot her walking off with her... boyfriend?!


    Fuck! He cursed, scowling. What was she trying to do? Hadn''t he told her to keep her rtionship with Daniel under wraps until the contract period of their marriage was over and they were divorced? So why had she invited him here, risking his public image? With all the media and news channels present, if anyone had captured them together, it could easily turn into a major scandal.


    The audacity of that woman! His breathing grew heavy as fury burned inside him, shattering his happy mood in an instant.


    He quickly left the ceremony to follow his wife and her boyfriend, moving discreetly so as not to attract attention. But what he saw next only fueled his anger further.


    Daniel and ire entered a bathroom together and locked the door. Was that supposedly decent woman really this desperate? He couldn''t believe what he was witnessing-his wife, alone in a confined space with another man. It wasn''t hard to guess what might be happening behind that door.


    He stormed toward the bathroom, prepared to break the door open, but suddenly an uneasiness stopped him in his tracks, leaving him stunned. The realization was unexpected-he never thought he''d feel this way. His heart pounded loudly, and now, anger mingled with something else, an unsettling nervousness. He was actually afraid of what he might find inside.


    Fuck! Adam Whitmore wasn''t ready to face the reality of seeing his wife with another man.


    ire was stunned to see Daniel at the wedding. He hadn''t been invited-so what was he doing here? When he tried to approach her among the guests and media, she panicked, knowing it would be very risky and could reveal the true nature of her marriage to Adam. Leading him to a far corner, she noticed the bathroom area was empty, as everyone was focused on Alessandro and Aria''s vow renewal. She slipped inside with him to talk.


    "What the hell are you doing here?" she snapped the moment she locked the bathroom door. Her eyes were furious, filled with disgust as she looked at her boyfriend-correction, ex-boyfriend.


    "Don''t be upset, sweetheart," Daniel smirked, stepping closer and reaching to touch her face. ire pped his hand away, making him chuckle wickedly..


    "I had toe find you since you weren''t responding to my calls," he exined in a sly tone.


    "What''s left to discuss, Daniel?" ire shot back. "After caught you fucking my cousin, everything ended that day." She red, her chest heaving with anger boiling inside.

    Chapter 265 ckmailing


    Once, when Daniel hadn''t answered her calls all day, ire had worried about him. Knowing his struggles with drup


    addiction, she feared he might have hurt himself. She went to his apartment to check on him, only to find him in bed with her own cousin, Hannah. Heartbroken and crushed by the betrayal, she''d pped him hard and left without a word.


    After that, she cut him offpletely, refusing to send him any more money. But now he was ckmailing her, threatening to go to the press and expose her contract marriage with Adam if she didn''t keep paying him.


    "Babe, I''m short on money since you haven''t sent any this month," Daniel replied shamelessly.


    "Then why don''t you ask Hannah? I''m sure she''d be happy to provide for you," ire mocked.


    "Don''t try to be clever," Daniel snapped, grabbing ire''s jaw tightly in anger as he threatened, "Give me the money, or I''ll go outside and tell the media about your contract marriage with Adam Whitmore." "Are you trying to ckmail me?" ire shot back, struggling to free her face from his grip. But before Daniel could do any more damage, the bathroom door mmed open, and Adam stormed in, looking very furious.
