Todos los capítulos de Second Marriage to the Billionaire: Ex-Husband Begs Me Not to Go: Capítulo 311 - Capítulo 320

Rachel couldn’t help but worry. If this really was a serious relationship, then why had Aria kept it a secret from the family?And now, she had to hear about it from a complete stranger. She didn’t even know her daughter had moved out—let alone when or where she was living now. If she wanted to know what Aria’s boyfriend looked like, she had to ask around like an outsider.Rachel felt her chest tighten. After a few steps, she struggled to breathe and pounded her fist against her chest in frustration. While waiting for a cab, she called James.The moment she heard his voice, she didn’t even wait for him to speak. Her words came out fast and sharp, “Your sister’s dating someone—married, even! And she’s moved in with him, all behind our backs. I went to her apartment and no one was there. I had to hear it from her neighbor! What is your sister thinking? Something this big, and she doesn’t tell us? I had to find out from a stranger, like some joke. As her mother, I had no clue. Isn’t th

“The Duncan family clearly can’t stand her. You should’ve seen their faces when she showed up—like they’d swallowed something foul. And yet she just sat there like nothing was wrong, clinging to Archer like some smug little girlfriend. Do you know what people were saying about her yesterday?“They said she had no shame. Just divorced Larry Spencer, and now she’s already throwing herself at someone else? What kind of woman does that? It’s disgusting.”“Watch your mouth!” Rachel snapped, her voice rising sharply. She may not always have seen eye to eye with Aria, but she had raised that girl. Criticizing her was one thing—but slandering her in public like this? Absolutely not.Her daughter’s name being dragged through the mud like this? Rachel didn’t care who Aria was dating anymore. She wasn’t going to let Sandra humiliate her like this.“So what if they’re together?” Rachel shot back. “You keep accusing Aria of stealing Kandice’s man. But were Kandice and Archer even dating? Engage

Sandra scoffed, her lips curling in disdain as she shot Aria a look of contempt. “Is that so? That’s just what they said. No real proof. Who knows how much they’re hiding? You say you were together first, and I’m just supposed to take your word for it?”She clutched her purse and gave a dismissive snort. “I came here to reconnect, maybe see if you needed anything—to extend an olive branch. But clearly, that was a waste of time.” Without waiting for a reply, she turned on her heel and marched toward the door.Unfortunately for her, James’s wheelchair blocked the narrow path. Instead of asking him to move, Sandra slammed straight into the side of it, jostling him hard enough that he nearly tipped over.Aria’s expression darkened instantly.Archer calmly reached out and patted her shoulder. Then, in an even voice, he said, “Mrs. Williams, if you walk out that door like this, I promise you the Williams won’t see a single business deal for the next six months.”Sandra froze mid-step.

“That secondhand woman is worth that much protection? And he dares to threaten me over her? He’s lost his mind!”Sandra fumed as she stormed down the stairwell, muttering bitterly to herself. There’s no way the Duncan family would let him marry someone like her, no matter how much he likes her. Impossible!Either way, she absolutely could not afford to lose to the Jacksons in this.Lost in thought, she walked straight into the corner of a large box the chauffeur was carrying. The box was heavy—two full cases of wine—and barely budged. Sandra, on the other hand, felt the sharp jab right in her ribs and winced in pain, gritting her teeth.“Sorry!” the chauffeur apologized quickly.“Are you blind? Carrying all this stuff up the stairs and you can’t even watch where you’re going? Can’t you wait when someone’s coming down?”Already fuming from everything that happened upstairs, Sandra now had someone to vent her anger on. The poor chauffeur, polite and mild-mannered as always, bowed h

Rachel’s eyes fell on their hands—Archer’s fingers were long and slender, his knuckles clearly defined. On his ring finger, the silver band stood out starkly against his pale skin. She glanced down at Aria’s hand resting on her knee. She was wearing the exact same ring on her left middle finger.Something tightened in Rachel’s chest.Deep down, she still didn’t approve of this relationship. Without any real status or support behind them now, who could say what kind of mistreatment Aria might face in the Duncan family? Would anyone stand up for her if she were wronged? Or would they all just think she was lucky to be marrying up—easy to overlook, easy to push around?Rachel was about to speak when the doorbell rang.She cast the two of them a quick look, then stood and went to answer it.When she opened the door, an elderly woman stood outside, arms full of shopping bags. Rachel stared at her, trying to place the familiar face. It took her a few seconds to realize—was this… Arche
