My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2605
When going down the stairs, Clara bumped into Mandy, who was about to walk past her. Mandy stopped abruptly and turned to Clara, seemingly unimpressed. "Why did you come back?"Clara stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the other woman."Mr. Birch was seriously ill after his operation, but you never came, not even once. You didn't care about him when he needed you the most. So, why are you coming back now?"Jealousy and resentment twisted through Mandy, and she spoke like she was in charge of the family."Mr. Birch is about to divorce you. Why are you still clinging to him, unwilling to let go? Are you trying to get more out of the divorce? Is the terms of the divorce not good enough?" Mandy questioned further.Clara's face sank. "Mandy, it's not your place to question my marriage. You're just a nurse, responsible for taking care of my husband's health in the meantime." "You—!" Anger rose in Mandy. She knew she was just a nurse, but Clara's words struck a nerve. Mandy was

Clara fell silent at the helper's words. Their attitude and disrespect were apparent. She could speak to Mandy for medicine but likely be refused or put in constant frustration.Not wanting to get herself into more trouble, Clara limped out of the villa and took her cell phone with her. When she arrived at the intersection, she took a taxi and went to a nearby drugstore. She was about to leave after buying the medicine, but a car stopped in front of her."Ms. Wells," the man greeted respectfully. "Madam Birch would like to meet you."Clara felt her heart sank. She knew this day would come sooner or later. She was back in Latveria and could not avoid Wilson's mother forever.Clara had previously made a promise to Lessie. She agreed to separate from Wilson, but instead, she came to Latveria in the hope of reconciliation. Clara even refused to sign the divorce papers. How could Lessie not know about this?Clara got into the car and went to Lessie's residence. She followed the maid to

Lessie looked pensive. The Birch and Wells family had been tangled in matters complicated beyond salvage. At this point, she could no longer tell who was right or wrong. Hopefully, the woman would keep her promise and divorce Wilson without any hesitation. And it would be another three months of waiting."I hope you'll keep your promise," Lessie finally uttered softly.The lights in Clara's eyes dimmed. Apparently, Lessie still hoped she could sign the divorce papers willingly despite the three-month wait. Right. In Lessie's eyes, Clara was just a woman who kept hurting his son."I will," Clara promised. As she turned to leave, she saw Wilson standing near the entrance of the living room. God knows how long he had been standing there. Did he overhear everything?"Mom, I told you before. Don't interfere in our affairs!" Wilson said in a low growl. He strode from the entrance and grabbed Clara by the wrist to lead her away.Clara stumbled and nearly lost her footing in just a few

Clara's froze. She heard him continue, saying, "Didn't I show you the wound last time? Still interested in it?""I just want to see if you're alright," she said with a little sob. "You picked me up so suddenly—""I'm not that weak. I can walk properly. Besides, it's been two months. You think my wound will reopen after this long?" Wilson scoffed, feeling ridiculous.Clara's breath hitched at Wilson's reply. It seemed a little silly of her to be this worried. The average time for an incision to fully heal was roughly 1 to 2 months. Wilson's wound should be fully healed already. Besides, he showed no sign of discomfort, so he should be perfectly fine.Wilson told the driver, "Drive."The car drove away from Lessie's residence and headed home. Silence stretched on until Wilson started speaking."You sprained your ankle. Why did you go out alone? Did my mother tell you to meet her?" he questioned. He had received news that Lessie's men had taken Clara back to the family mansion. Only

"You want to walk slowly? And then limp into your room?" Wilson grunted, silencing her.Feeling embarrassed, Clara chewed on her bottom lip, her cheeks red.Wilson probably carried her only because he was annoyed by her walking speed. Or maybe he was sympathetic. It had been very long since she had felt such a sense of security while being so close to him and in his arms.Wilson carried Clara into the house and carefully placed Clara on the sofa in the living room. He ordered the maid, "Go and bring the medicine box. Also, call Mandy over to take a look at my wife's foot.""Yes," the maid responded and hurriedly left to find Mandy.The other helpers in the living room watched Wilson and Clara's interaction with some surprise. Meanwhile, the helper who had refused Clara's request for a medicine box before had a look of fear on her face. The helper became worried, afraid Clara would tell Wilson about her refusal, causing her to lose her job. Although she was just a maid working fo

Wilson could have let someone else do it for him instead of taking the matter into his own hands."Either way, you're still legally my wife. We haven't officially divorced yet. Those working here should understand this," Wilson stated.Clara felt a warm feeling swelling in her heart. Wilson had always been like this, speaking with his actions rather than his words. Hopefully, the helpers in the residence would not take her lightly anymore and finally stop making things harder for her."Thank you," she said. "Thank you?" he repeated in surprise. He was the reason why she was being mistreated during her stay here. All he did was give her the respect she deserved, but she still thanked him in such seriousness!"By the way, did you promise my mother anything? What happened to the promise you made to her in the hospital?" Wilson asked abruptly.Clara felt nervous suddenly and clenched her fists. He must have overheard their conversation earlier. How was she going to tell him? That hi

"What do you want me to believe? Did you forget? You told me countless times that you don't love me," Wilson reminded, wanting to push her away. He could not bear to see her wet and begging eyes. It hurt whenever he saw the tears in her eyes. When his hands clutched her shoulders, she lowered her head and kissed his lips.Her kiss was impatient and rough. She seemed desperate to use her kiss to show him all the emotions she could not name. What would it take to convince him that she loved him?What should she do to get him back? She wanted to be with him, grow old together with him. Wilson used to love her deeply, so much he could risk his life and health for her. But it seemed an impossible task to make him believe she loved him back.Clara slowly fluttered her eyes closed, and tears spilled as she devoted herself to the kiss. Wilson stiffened. His heart was pounding, his senses heightening on his lips. Her desperate kiss sent him into a daze, and his hands on her shoulders b

Serenity came to the bookstore, wanting to pick up a few books and some stationery for Yanny. Clara had left for Latveria, leaving the two children in Mrs. Wells' care. As Yanny and Amy's godmother, Serenity naturally wanted to do something more for her godchildren.Serenity became a little worried thinking of Clara's three-month bet with Wilson. She never thought Clara would make such a bet with Wilson.Clara only had three months. It was hard to make Wilson fall in love with Clara again unless she broke the hypnosis. "You should've said a longer time. Maybe a three-year bet would've been better." Serenity had even said that to Clara in their previous video call."Three years is too long. Maybe he'll directly file for divorce. I think three months is about as much as he'll allow," Clara had said at that time."And what if he still insists on a divorce after three months?""Then we'll get a divorce.""But what about you?""I'll raise Yanny and Amy alone. Maybe it's fate. Maybe

“……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me! The

"Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

"Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

"Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
