The Hostage Negotiator My Husband Gave Away My Billion-Dollar Case to His Childhood Crush

An Oscar-winning actress’s secret child was kidnapped. To please his childhood bestie, my husband secretly deleted the text message informing me of the last-minute location change.

By the time I rushed to the scene, the first round of negotiations was already over.

Before I could even ask what was going on, my husband went on the attack:

"If it wasn't for Chloe, you wouldn't just have gotten the actress's son killed today—you would’ve gotten all of us killed!"

"Hurry up and thank Chloe! We're counting on her for the rest of this."
