My Wife's Unspoken Secret

[Faithful to each other, both dominant, marriage before love, with sweetness, angst, and a touch of suspense. A gripping story!]

Love at first sight? In truth, it was the rekindling of a youthful heart-flutter. Gu Xinyao, the very embodiment of privilege, fell for the cool, beautiful Jiang Lanyue at first glance and decided she was the one.

Just ten days after they met, he ignored her wishes and acted first, announcing their engagement to the public, then dealt with the aftermath by winning over her father, mother, and younger brother. Caught between a rock and a hard place, she could only agree to marry him to balance her family’s needs against the secret she was keeping.

Unfortunately, President Gu’s love life did not go smoothly. Before their sweet married life could even begin, they suffered the painful rupture of a bitten tongue.

On the third day of their marriage, their relationship took a sharp turn. He had unwittingly touched the trauma she had carried for twelve years. Her heart shut down again, turning cold. She feared him and kept her distance...

As one incident after another unfolded, he finally began investigating what had happened to change her personality. But the results left him deeply conflicted, and he had no choice but to plan to use a child to keep her by his side.

Through threats and promises, he finally won her body. But jealousy made him act rashly, and his excessive demands left her fed up. Their relationship grew strained once more: she resisted his advances, while he knew he was in the wrong and could only give in to her.

What comforted him was the new life quietly growing inside her. Unfortunately, she could not accept getting pregnant before the search for the person she was looking for had been resolved. He could only try every way he could to hide her pregnancy from her.

Can he keep it a secret? Will their child be born safely? And where will their story go from here?
