My ex's uncle is my husband. 73. Joke?
Chapter 73. Joke?Ailda knocked on the door and then entered without waiting for a response, finding Elizabeth sitting on her knees on the bed, holding the sheet covering her breasts, and Richard at the edge of the bed applying ointment to her back."Good morning," greeted Ailda, placing the coffee on the dresser next to the bed."I've told you not to work so much," he scolded her while she instructed Coralie to place the other tray next to the first one."I've done what you asked, hired someone to help me. You can stop bothering me; I'm much better now," she grumbled irritably.Elizabeth curiously stared at the person who came in with Ailda, and for a moment, their eyes met. Then Coralie lowered her head as a sign of submission, but in truth, Elizabeth felt as if she had been recognized, even though they had never met."Who is she?" she asked once the two of them left."Ailda's new assistant. I hired someone so that she doesn't overwork herself, and I end up losing one of the few peo

Chapter 74 - Surprise EngagementRichard helped her out of the bathroom, dressing himself while she sat on the bed wrapped in a towel, looking at him provocatively as she subtly shook her hair."I'll take care of some things now, have your breakfast and rest. If you need anything, I'll be here," he informed, leaving the room as if trying to escape, while she held back her laughter.Jayden was already in the office with Richard's trusted lawyer, both examining and reading scattered documents on the table."Good morning, Mr. Campbell," the lawyer greeted with a brief handshake."Good morning, Monark. How are things?" Richard asked."Let's say I found a loophole. I analyzed your plan, and we might be able to act quickly, but I think it's a bit risky for you to relinquish your fifty percent.""But it will be for a good reason, and I want the media to announce it in detail so that no one else dares to try to steal from me!" he declared, annoyed.After sitting at the table, he began listeni

Chapter 75 - Bay is still BayElizabeth observed Coralie for a few seconds and then forced a smile."No, it's not really a private matter. Since my husband is a very influential man, sometimes I may not be secure.""Being from a simple family, it may not be easy. But I believe he always protects you, right?" Coralie asked calmly, brushing her hair."Yes... Richard is always protecting me."Coralie sensed the sincerity in her words, as well as her emotions when her eyes sparkled."It's a shame that people like us don't stand a chance with such powerful men," she mused."Seems like you've been through something like that?" Elizabeth asked, noticing Coralie's discomfort when touching on the subject."No, a lady like me, how could I..." She pressed her lips with a discreet smile."When I was younger.""No, but I've seen some girls in that situation, and you're no different, right? Since your supposed husband has another engagement planned," she commented casually, but inside she was thril

Chapter 76: Conflicts of a Heart"Why are you asking?" Elizabeth inquired, her expression odd."You seem strange," he commented, scrutinizing her suspiciously."It's nothing, just curious. What's happening in these three days?""Your recovery. A stylist will come in three days, and on that day, I want you to be more beautiful than you've ever been," he declared with conviction, leaving Elizabeth puzzled.Meanwhile, Taylor was in the same restaurant where Richard had met Bay. The secluded place seemed perfect for all kinds of meetings, including a secret gathering organized by Taylor, Emma, Ursula, and her father."I can't believe you found a weakness to bring down Richard," Taylor celebrated, holding a glass of wine."Well, he toyed with my daughter and decided not to keep his own word. Obviously, I wouldn't let that go," Afonso explained."As soon as I read that invitation, I couldn't have received better news."At that moment, Ursula looked at him in surprise."But who told you the

Chapter 77: Richard's Mysterious SurpriseShe rose, still sitting on the edge of the table, only to find a knife at her throat. A hooded man had cornered her."Don't think you're invincible just because you kill deliberately," he declared with a fierce look. However, she smiled and lay back down, sighing calmly."If you were thinking of saving them, I'm sorry, they're all dead," she smiled, and her laughter sounded like music to Jayden's ears."Why do you do these things?" he asked, putting away the knife."It's my job.""Since when?""Can we talk here?" she asked, standing up and facing him, realizing how close he was. He didn't even notice the position he was in, between her legs. "There are too many dead people, and the smell of fresh blood is starting to bother me, but you being between my legs is intriguing me a bit," she teased, making him step back awkwardly."Don't let your thoughts wander to things that don't exist!" he scolded, while she held back laughter disappointedly."H
My ex's uncle is my husband. 78: What Richard is Planning
Chapter 78: What Richard is PlanningElizabeth didn't see Richard, even when she was ready. The stylist bid her farewell and left her alone in her room, with orders not to leave. Finally, someone knocked on the door, but thinking it was Richard, Jayden entered the room and briefly stared at her with no reaction."Mrs. Leblanc," he sighed, bowing slightly in reverence, extending his hand as an invitation."Where is Richard?" she asked uncertainly, feeling her chest tighten."He has already left and will be waiting for you. Shall we?" he called again, getting up and straightening his posture. She then passed by him without looking at him."You look as beautiful as the first time you were seen in such a gorgeous dress," he commented as they walked slowly down the corridor."Are you trying to be nice? I know you don't like me, so why are you complimenting me?""It's not that I don't like you; I just didn't trust you. Both Richard and I have had our reasons to stay away from people.""I al

Chapter 79: Ursula's Dark PlanThe hall was filled with anticipation; criticism and suspicion permeated the conversations until the door finally opened. Ursula was divine, smiling when, suddenly, an unexpected scene took over the hall, leaving everyone surprised."But... what's happening?" murmured Ursula, reacting instantly as attention turned to the elegant man standing at the main entrance, and beside him, a woman who dazzled everyone in her wedding dress. Though not overly extravagant, it was richly crafted, filled with details that added even more radiance to its wearer."That scoundrel," Ursula's father grumbled. Like everyone else, they were confused, except Ryuk and Brian, who had already understood Richard's choice."He barely escaped." Ryuk whispered to Brian."Well, well..." Emma smiled contentedly. "I said a man like him wouldn't surrender to any threat." Taylor smiled bitterly as he looked at Emma."What are you now, an admirer of my enemy?," he asked, annoyed."No, I jus

I don't see you as women, wouldn't have any wrong desire."How boring!" She grumbled, pushing him away and walking towards the hall, leaving Jayden behind."Ah, I'm so frustrated with Elizabeth." Brian grumbled again." How can I not dance with her? This time, she seems so happy... just today, it's a one in a million day..." he sighed enviously."Because she is." Ryuk commented indifferently." Sometimes I even think she's ashamed to be our sister."Relax, and again with this topic." Their mother, Eliza, sighed." Your sister is being happy like an ordinary woman. Maybe there's no price for the media to see a man like Richard openly declaring his love for such a simple woman. It's like a fairy tale."I doubt he would do that if she were really a simple woman." Brian grumbled."As far as I know, he would. After all, he tried." She commented ironically.G

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.

Chapter 208: Implications and Departures."You know..." sighed Brian as he saw Emma, who stared at them with disdain." 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

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
