My husband faked his death to live with his widowed sister in law 1

Chapter

The night she was saved from her third suicide attempt, Liana Langston, still weak and pale, dragged herself to the Graham residence, hoping to retrieve a few of Adrian’s belongings from his mother, Eleanor Grace, to soothe her aching heart

But just as she reached the gate, she heard a deliberately hushed argument coming from inside the house- 

Adrian, how long are you going to keep lying to Liana? She’s already tried to die for you- three times!” 

Her fingers dug sharply into her palm, blood freezing in her veins

Why was her motherinlaw calling Landon, Adrian’s younger twin brother, by that name

Mom, just a little longer.” 

That voiceit was unmistakably Landon’s. But the tone was eerily familiar, exactly like how Adrian used to coax her

Before Landon died, he asked me to take care of his wife. But she’s fragile. If she knew he was gone, she’d follow him. I had no choice but to become himgive her a child, something to keep her living.” 

Liana was struck like lightning. Her knees buckled

So it was Landon who had died, not Adrian

behind his twin’s identity, sleeping every night in the next room- 

With a woman named Zoe Young

“And what about Liana?Eleanor choked up. You sleep in Zoe’s room every night. Do you ever think about how much pain Liana is in?” 

She’s tougher than Zoe” 

That sentence was a blade, slicing straight through her heart

She stumbled backward, knocking over the flower rack near the door

The house fell silent

She turned and fled, as if the abyss itself

As she ran, a sharp pain pricked her palm

She looked down and realized the bullet casing she’d been clutching had embedded itself deep into her flesh, blood seeping through her fingers

For the past six months, she’d held that casing to sleep every night, crying until she couldn’t breathe in her dreams

But now, it seemed laughable

Her husband wasn’t dead

He’d just decided to let her believe itso he could take care of his brother’s widow

Five years ago, she first met Adrian Graham during a military cultural performance

Plenty of female soldiers were infatuated with him. Plenty of officers pursued her

But that night, he sat in the audience, eyes fixed solely on her as she accepted her award on stage

Then, as she stepped down, he stopped her path

He took off his uniform jacket and draped it over her shoulders. His voice was low and magnetic. Liana, the night’s chilly. Don’t catch cold.” 

Wrapped in his jacket, her heart thundered in her chest and her ears burned red

The day she agreed to be with him, he lifted her into his arms and spun her around the training field several times

Liana, I, Adrian Graham, am yours for life.” 

After marriage, everyone said Captain Graham spoiled his wife beyond reason

She had believed it toothat he loved her more than life itself

But now

He even planned to get her pregnant

Meanwhile, she had cried, died, and grieved for him like a fool

Did it ever occur to him that her heart could break too

When she stumbled back home, the neighbor, Martha, came by again

Liana, Colonel Lawson is being transferred to the frontier next week. This is the eighth time he’s asked me to speak to youHe said if you don’t agree this time, he’ll never come back.”

She’d turned him down the first seven times

Because she was stubborn

She believed she’d only ever love Adrian Graham

But now… 

She looked up, her voice calm. Alright. I’ll marry him.” 

Martha’s eyes widened. Areare you serious?” 

I’m serious.She tugged at the corners of her mouth and forced a pale smile. Please tell MilesI’ll leave with him in a week.”

Who are you leaving with?” 

Liana Langston looked at him and suddenly found the whole thing absurd

Landon Graham,” she said softly, that’s none of your business.” 

Though he was speaking to Martha, he gripped her wrist so tightly it felt like he was going to crush her bones. She has me. She doesn’t need to remarry. She loved my brother so muchhow could she be with someone else? Martha, don’t come again, or I won’t be so polite next time.” 

Martha looked confused. But Liana just said” 

Liana cut in, grabbing her arm. Martha, don’t

Reminded of her errand, Martha nodded quickly and left in a hurry

Until she was gone, Adrian’s shoulders relaxed slightly

He took a step forward, voice husky. Liana, even though my brother’s gone, I’ll take care of you for him. From now on, if someone tries to propose, just send them away-” 

At that moment, Liana Langston had never felt anything more ridiculous

He slept under another identity, in another woman’s bed, and now he was afraid she’d 

move on

Afraid she’d leave

But she didn’t expose him

She simply nodded calmly

After all, in one week, she’d be gone with Miles Lawsonfree from this maddening cage forever

Suddenly, creaking sounds came from the room next door

She used to think nothing of themjust Landon Graham and Zoe Young being intimate

Those weren’t Landon’s sounds

They were Adrian’sones she once heard only whispered in her ear

Ah-!” 

A piercing scream split the night

As Liana rushed out, she saw Adrian Graham carrying a disheveled Zoe Young downstairs in his arms

The moonlight spilled cold and pale across Zoe’s white nightgownits hem soaked in vivid red

The base housing area instantly erupted

Dear Lord, what happened?” 

“People say they went too far at nightnow she’s bleeding.” 

Tsk, who’d have thought Landon Graham, all proper on the outside, would be so rough in bed” 

Liana stood at the edge of the crowd, her nails digging into her palmbut she felt nothing

She turned to leave, only for Diana to grab her

Liana, you’re Adrian’s widow. You should be there for Zoe.”

Adrian Graham paced restlessly, tugging at his collar. When he saw her, his pupils shrank

What are you doing-” 

As your brother’s widow,” she cut him off, voice colder than ice, I’m just doing my duty.” 

The operating light above the door suddenly flicked off

A doctor stepped out
