Flew Overseas to Surprise My Husband—Big Surprise! Caught His Mistress There Chapter 05

The bullhorn drowns out the wedding music.

Everyone hears it.

Guests’ faces flip from congratulations to full-blown spectator mode. Pointing. Whispering.

Nathan’s face goes dark. He storms over, rips the bullhorn away, kills the audio.

“What the hell is wrong with you? This is my wedding. Who sent you?”

Guy shrugs. “Got paid. Can’t say who.”

Nathan’s jaw tightens. If there weren’t witnesses everywhere, he’d have them dragged off.

He wants this wrapped up fast-needs to find me after.

His voice drops. Threatening. “Whatever they paid you, I’ll pay ten times that. Leave. Now.”

Still doesn’t suspect me. Probably thinks it’s a business rival.

Guy brushes his hand off. “Can’t do that. Client wants us here till the end. Only way we leave is if you climb in that coffin yourself.”

Chloe’s face twists with rage. “You’re trying to ruin our wedding! I’m calling the cops!”

She turns to Nathan. “Babe, they’re just here to cause trouble. Get security. Don’t let them wreck this.”

Nathan’s done talking. Waves security over.

Lead guy glances at me. Waiting for the signal.

I stand. Walk toward them.

“Wait. I hired them.”

Not loud. But in a venue this big? Might as well be a grenade.

Dead silence.

Every head whips toward me.

Nathan sees my face.

Goes white as a sheet.

“Emma-what the fuck-how are you here? I thought you went home.”

I smile. Sweet as poison. “Look at you. So rattled you can’t even call me ‘babe’ anymore.”

The guests aren’t idiots. They connect the dots fast-funeral procession, angry wife crashing the wedding. Picture’s clear.

Their expressions shift. Disgusted.

Nathan’s scrambling now. “Emma, listen-this isn’t what it looks like. Just let me explain-”

“This wedding’s critical for the company. You’re tanking our stock right now. Just take these people and leave, okay? Be reasonable. I’ll explain everything later, I swear.”

He reaches for my hand.

CRACK.

I slap him so hard his head snaps sideways.

Eyes cold as ice. “What am I, Nathan? A toddler? You think I’m buying that pathetic excuse?”

“You told me Chloe was Jake’s little sister. Turns out she’s your girlfriend. And you know how I found out?”

I pause. Let it sink in.

“She told me. Right to my face.”

Nathan freezes. “When did she-”

I glance at Chloe. She’s looking real nervous now.

“First day I showed up. When she came to your office? I was standing right outside the door.”

Nathan’s pupils blow wide. You can see the memory hitting him like a freight train.

All my weird behavior lately. The distance. The silence.

It clicks.

He thought he had me fooled. Thought he’d covered his tracks perfectly.

Turns out I’ve known the whole time.
