Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith his position, Nate could have had any woman he wanted with just a snap of his fingers.
So why did it have to be Corrine? "Have you lost your mind, Nate?" Rosalie finally snapped, unable to hold back any longer. "Snap out of it! Corrine was married! Regardless of what her relationship with her ex-husband was, Ralph would never accept her!” The Hopkins family's reputation would never allow a woman who had been married before to join their ranks.
With Corrine's background, she didn't belong in the Independent Continent.
Without Nate's backing, did she really think anyone would ever accept her here? "Who said she was married?" Nate's voice turned icy, his gaze locking onto Rosalie with a chilling intensity. Rosalie felt as if an invisible hand was squeezing her heart. She stood frozen, unable to speak.
Moses let out a quiet sigh, giving Zack a subtle warning not to act rashly.
Having known Nate for years, Zack understood exactly how he operated. Nate showed real kindness only when it cto Corrine.
Had he ever shown mercy to anyone else? Rumors painted Nate as distant, noble, and aloof, effortlessly drawing people in. But beneath that perfect image was a ruthless, obsessive side.
"I'll ask you again," Nate said coldly, his gaze sharpening. "Who told you she was married before?" His voice was casual, but the coldness beneath sent a shiver down the spine.

"Miss Liam, you're excellent at twisting words," Corrine interjected smoothly, her voice calm and distant, as if watching a fish struggle in mud. "If you hadn't rushed off, you would've heard the full story." Rosalie's heart tightened with unease. "What do you mean?"
Corrine looked at her coolly. "What I mean is, I wore a wedding dress and went to the church, out the groom died on the way. The wedding never happened. So, technically, I've never been married."
