My ex's uncle is my husband. 13: Elizabeth's Bad Reputation
Chapter 13: Elizabeth's Bad ReputationDespite the admiration of many, Elizabeth was also the target of gossip, particularly among the groups Emma associated with."She's nothing but someone trying to seduce wealthy men. My Taylor would be one of the victims of this scammer.""I'm surprised that Taylor, one of the most eligible bachelors for so long, gave space to just anyone. He has lowered himself in my estimation," grumbled one of the girls, watching the couple with disgust."It doesn't matter that he's with her, it won't last long. Besides, Richard seems to have bought her, given that she's a scammer, she won't last, and that means he's open to relationships. I don't know about you, but once this is over, I'm going to try," one remarked."Dream on! I'll manage; I have a more sophisticated way.""Well..." murmured another, pointing at Elizabeth while serving herself, "you'll have to be at least more sophisticated than her.""Good grief, just being from a good family puts you above
My ex's uncle is my husband. 14 "The Hidden Truth"
"The Hidden Truth"Taylor stared at her without a reaction; that woman from afar wasn't the Elizabeth I knew. The old Elizabeth wouldn't have the courage to do what the present one was doing."Maybe some other time..." He sighed heavily, trying to keep calm.He left, returning to the party. Richard continued to watch Elizabeth. After noticing Emma had hidden herself so Taylor wouldn't see her, and as soon as he headed back to the party, she approached Elizabeth."I should have known," he grumbled while Elizabeth lamented her bad luck."I just wanted some fresh air," she grumbled, turning to face Emma."You're shameless. How could you come here after seducing the uncle and even trying to ensnare the nephew as a bonus? You're just trash.""It wasn't me in a committed man's bed! The only person here with no value is right in front of me.""You think you're something now that you're married to that jerk, huh? But you're just a ruthless opportunist.""For God's sake! It's you who needs a s

Chapter 15 Opposites Repel"How is this not what I'm thinking?" he asked fiercely."You're scaring me..." she stammered, trying to push him away, but he held her hands, placing them above her head."Am I? I don't tolerate many things, and one of them is lies. I want to make you regret this so much..." he muttered furiously, then scrutinized every detail of her face, his gaze trailing down her body, instilling fear in her. "But all I feel now is disgust!""If you don't let me go, I'll scream!" she protested, struggling. "Don't insult me..." she pleaded with a trembling voice, showing fear.Richard could feel every part of her trembling in panic, as if she truly believed he would be that kind of scoundrel."I don't handle things like this, Elizabeth, but this lie will cost your family dearly because it's explicit in the contract. You owe me loyalty; they let you do as you please.""What does that mean?" she asked, confused."It means you're in trouble. There's this clause, and I haven't

Chapter 16. Did You Abuse Me?"Good evening, Liz," he sighed softly, taking a few steps, stopping almost beneath her window.Noticing she wore Richard's shirt, he felt a tinge of jealousy and even thought she had surrendered to him."Do you remember how I always gave you these roses? You loved them," he declared, then forcefully tossed one up, landing at Elizabeth's feet. She stooped to pick it up, observing for a few minutes."Now... I hate roses," she grumbled, starting to tear off all the petals at once, holding the stem of the flower tightly, injuring her hand on the thorns, then throwing the petals at Taylor.He smiled and waved a goodbye as she now tossed the flower stem onto the balcony floor, sitting on the lounge chair."You... in one way or another,

Chapter 17. Troubled MarriageElizabeth remained still as he maintained steady eye contact; at that moment, he seemed like a beast about to devour her."Now feeling ashamed for thinking I abused you while you slept?" he asked, making her swallow hard."For God's sake... just yesterday, you didn't believe I was a virgin. What do you want me to think?" she asked, averting her gaze."I've told you I won't force you.""Do you believe me now?" she asked, indicating the papers still in his hands."I might reconsider," he announced indifferently."Can you take me to college now?"Richard looked at her in surprise."You don't even need to be there. Besides, y

Chapter 18. He Will Always Be There"Let's have lunch, and then I'll head to my work. You should spend some time with your fiancé," she suggested. As they left, they noticed dozens of students, and suddenly, Elizabeth was hit by something that broke on her head, dripping down her forehead. Before she realized what it was, she was bombarded by dozens and dozens of eggs."That's what a money-grubbing slut deserves!" one of the girls declared as Gaby dragged Elizabeth away from the crowd."You're not welcome here, leave!""You tarnish this college with your misconduct," they continued shouting, while Elizabeth was still in shock, being led by Gaby to the nearest bathroom.Compared to the target, which was Elizabeth, Gaby was only slightly hit."Damn!"

What am I doing?" she muttered, embarrassed, unable to look at him, while he stifled a laugh."Nothing out of the ordinary," he murmured indifferently as she leaned against the sink, arms crossed."Let's just pretend that didn't happen!" she requested, embarrassed.He sighed impatiently, looking at her. "It's time to go," he advised, ignoring her words.He held her hand and led her out of the bathroom."What are you doing?" she asked, trying to release her hand."If you want to survive here without me expelli

chapter 20Jayden headed back to Richard's mansion after taking care of everything Richard had requested."Where's Richard?" he asked as soon as he entered, crossing the room."He's in his private room," Ailda informed. Jayden quickly made his way there, finding Richard positioned facing the vast landscape of his estate."Any news?" Richard inquired before Jayden could utter a word."The person responsible for pushing your wife has received the deserved punishment.""Depends… was he expelled?""Yes, and... those who set up and attacked her in the corridor... I don't think we need to do anything; her friend handled that problem."Richard turned, facing Jayden skeptically. "What cou

The twins and Gaby were in Elizabeth's room, styling her hair and adorning it with pearl ornaments. It would be the most luxurious party ever seen. Richard and Elizabeth were marrying again, this time officially and grandly, so that everyone could witness this union and celebrate.After so many events, walking down the aisle to meet the man she loved was priceless. As her father led her slowly as if wanting to savor her arrival at the groom."Father?" whispered Elizabeth upon hearing her father's slight sniffle and realizing he was almost crying." Isn't this the second time I'm getting married?"That wasn't a wedding, it was a mistake of your father, right? But now I'm seeing my daughter really getting married, to someone she loves, I'm just a grandfather now." declared Zeus, holding back tears.

When you don't talk about the devil, he shows up anyway, doesn't he?" he asked seriously.The twins, in turn, got up and went downstairs together, barely noticing that the Leblanc brothers followed them while smiling and chatting."What are they talking about?" whispered Brian. Then, they subtly approached when the twins sat at a table in the cafeteria and stealthily listened."You shouldn't think about it, it was right to throw those coats away at that moment. Besides... Think about it, do men like them have anything good to offer? You saw, they attract the attention of all women all the time." she commented with disgust."But isn't that a good thing?" asked Brian, whispering, astonished."True, you know, men like that are after every woman they can find. There's no value in that, and I say this because they kept staring at us the whole time. We're nothing but toys,

Chapter 207: A Pregnant Woman in a Scorpion NestShe rested her head on those wooden planks, holding her belly, thinking she would be alone at that moment. Besides the risk she was taking by being in an old house in a forest, it was obvious that there were insects and wild animals around. So, she tried to stay still, even more so when she saw an unpleasant insect just inches away, making her spine tingle. After all, how many more were there? She closed her eyes in terror. It seemed that under that house had become a shelter for scorpions. So, she even tried not to breathe, even with panic.At such a critical moment, she truly thought she was going to die, until she heard the door of that old house open abruptly."Oh Heavens... He never fails..." she sighed in relief."Stay still!" Richard asserted upon seeing the scorpions crawling over Elizabeth."Save me... Please..." she pleaded, holding her breath."It's okay... Just don't move." he said, keeping calm and carefully removing the sc
My ex's uncle is my husband. 206: A Dangerous and Relaxed Walk
Chapter 206: A Dangerous and Relaxed WalkElizabeth was already nine months pregnant, and with each passing day, she became more anxious. It wasn't because she eagerly awaited the moment to see her daughter, but rather because, after months in that mansion, even with so much entertainment, she was eager and longing to go out and take her last walk alone.The twins were wandering around the mansion's premises, and as usual, they always went to see Elizabeth."You can come in," announced Elizabeth when the twins knocked on the door."Are you going somewhere?" the girls asked, a bit confused to see her already dressed and drying her hair."I'm thinking of making a brief visit to an old place," she said thoughtfully."You're not thinking of visiting someone, are you?" Kemilly asked suspiciously."What are you talking about?" Elizabeth asked, confused."We heard that Taylor is paralyzed, unable to move anything from the waist down. It's a pity for someone so young and handsome.""Why would

Chapter 205: Visiting my former marriageDuring that same period, Taylor was now living with his mother. She took him to her home, even though it was a simple place. Now he had to accept that this was his fate, being completely ignored by his father, who didn't even visit him. Coralie now sat daily in a chair in front of Taylor's bed and dedicated herself to feeding him."Do you know I can feed myself, right? Why do you keep doing this?" Taylor asked, annoyed."And I want to take care of my son, as I never could before," she grumbled as he refused to eat."You don't have to, just leave and let me die. We can't even live in this place, no money, no life, nothing. That bastard who claims to be my father only defends his own interests.""I'm here. Besides, I know how to get money, so don't worry.""How?""Let's just say I made a great friend, even when I was practicing evil," she smiled tenderly. "At least she says she never made a mistake when she chose to trust me.""I abandoned you. S

Chapter 204 - Ambitious and InsistentAs soon as the girls received Elizabeth's message, they didn't think twice before rushing to meet their mother and uncle to share the news and their decisions at that moment.Richard was gathered in the garden with his sister Rayssa and Aloury. The girls talked to their guardians and asked for permission to go with Elizabeth."How come Elizabeth asked you two to go with her?" Richard asked skeptically."Actually, we asked her. We believe we can learn more from someone like her.""Did she say where she's going?"The girls shook their heads negatively."No, actually she said she didn't want you to know.""What am I to her? Is she always going to be avoiding me? Does she think it's fair while dragging my daughter everywhere?" he grumbled annoyed, leaving the twins confused."What do you mean? But if it was your son, why did you let Taylor bother her so much?"At that moment, Richard averted his gaze, showing shame."At first, he implied that baby was

Chapter 203: Things Seem to Be Falling into PlaceRayssa went upstairs to see her sister; Aloury still had no idea that her older sister had been rescued."Do you think she'll be happy?" Rayssa asked, leaning on Richard's arm as he escorted her."You can be sure, just the two of us was a bit lonely.""I heard she married that man, now that I'm back, I'll have to face a divorce while her marriage will be annulled," she sighed thoughtfully."Indeed, it seems our family has a karma related to marriage annulment.""Why? Speaking of which... Elizabeth is your wife, right? Why didn't you bring her?""It's a long story, actually, a story so far-fetched it might take days to know it all," he suddenly commented, remembering the time he was kidnapped.He smiled awkwardly at the thought that it was his grandfather who did that; he was now sure that Rayssa and Aloury's encounter was more dramatic than expected, filled with Aloury's remorse and regret, now that she was lucid. She had awakened from

Chapter 202: Elizabeth's DepartureThe twins eyed each other cautiously, silently communicating with their gaze. Emile nodded in agreement to what Kemilly indicated by looking towards the grand entrance, then turned to his sister."Let's take you, since you can't walk...""No!" Kemilly asserted, using all her strength, pulling her sister and running into the hospital, leaving the two men stunned."What's going on?" Brian asked, furrowing his brow as he watched the girls struggling to run."Interesting, I expected them to jump into our arms instead of running past us..." "Oh... I guess we're quite presumptuous, but perhaps there are really tough women out there in the world," Brian commented, interrupting his brother and suppressing a laugh."Did they make it seem like a game?" Ryuk asked, sliding his thumb over his chin with a light smile, much like Brian.The twins ran to Elizabeth's room, finding her things already packed, feeling disappointed to see her leaving."You're leaving wi

Chapter 201: An Old Problem.She smiled disappointedly, took a deep breath, gathering courage for what she wanted to say."Just forget it, I'm not going anywhere with you. If you think she's not yours, I don't want you to assume a responsibility that isn't yours," she said calmly, not even looking at him."Even if she doesn't have my blood, it doesn't mean I can't love her as a legitimate daughter, Liz... Don't keep rejecting me..." he tried to hold her hand, but she pulled away."Excuse me," Eliza entered the room, interrupting the conversation."I'll let you two talk..." Richard announced, albeit unwillingly."Why are you treating him like this?" Eliza asked, concerned."Because he's stubborn. Clearly, he's doing this out of pity. He wants to accept this child not because he loves me or loves this child, but because he feels sorry for everything I've been through. But the truth is, I've realized that nothing happened between me and Taylor.""What do you mean?" Eliza asked, intereste
