My ex's uncle is my husband. 89: DNA Test
Chapter 89: DNA TestAfter everyone gathered, Richard positioned himself next to Zeus, facing the grand and luxurious mansion, while the others were now watching, waiting for the announcement."As you all know, Château Lumière is one of the most coveted mansions in this region, and today it has a new owner.""Oh... don't tell me they managed to buy this mansion..." Elizabeth grumbled, lowering her head."Not even Bay could. Was it Richard?" Gaby asked."If it is, I'll demand that he give me the deed; he is my husband.""You're really crazy about this place, aren't you?" Gaby asked, bewildered."You know I spent months trying to book a reservation; I don't know how Richard managed to, as he had none." She continued talking without paying attention to what her father was saying until she heard Richard's voice, but her father had closed the space, limiting any event to hand over his daughter without any contract."Anyway, I tried every means to buy this mansion because I wanted to give i

They remained silent for a few minutes, processing and contemplating."Eliza," Richard called, tapping the door once before entering. "Is something happening?" he asked, puzzled.They exchanged glances, each look questioning what to do, until Elizabeth stood up and walked toward him, showing him the phone with the email, which he quickly read, furrowing his brow afterward."What's this? Whose DNA test is this?""I had seen the photo you showed me, and I realized that this woman, claiming to be Taylor's mother, is different from the one I saw four years ago. He showed me a picture, and it's not her, so I asked Gaby to do the test."Richard clenched his fists and hardened his jaw, his mind in turmoil. He left the room with brisk steps."Do you think he'll be okay?" Gaby asked."He's defin
My ex's uncle is my husband. 91. Something Suspicious.
Chapter 91. Something Suspicious.Before the grand event, Taylor embarked on a secret mission to help Richard unravel the secrets held within that imposing building. Infiltrating the premises, he witnessed the arrival of numerous trucks, indicating the magnitude of whatever was being moved there. After a long and tireless night of observation, all the men finally dispersed. Jayden could now move around the site without facing risks, but access to the containers where the goods were stored remained out of reach."Fascinating..." Jayden murmured as he surveyed the expansive courtyard, pondering how they managed to remain undetected. It wasn't surprising, considering the presence of influential figures in the realm of public security. Moreover, Ricardo and Taylor's agreements with a congressman and other corrupt individuals allowed the discreet use of the hotel's courtyard.It was the eagerly anticipated day of the grand event of the benevolent stars, an annual gathering that brought tog

Chapter 92. Event of the Benevolent Stars."What are you talking about?" Taylor asked as he approached them, showing suspicion."It's nothing serious," she announced, as the man briefly bowed and then withdrew."How so? You were talking to him.""I was asking about the exact time we would take action, and it's going to be quite difficult to get that woman away from the others, isn't it? As I told you, she also seems close to the Leblancs.""That doesn't mean anything. Eliza is just a simple woman to them.""If you say so," she murmured, gritting her teeth, maintaining a serious demeanor."Why are you so upset?" he asked, analyzing her. "Are you jealous? I've told you I have nothing with her. Besides, we're getting married soon; we've already set the date.""Fine, I have no reason to demand anything from you. But if you think you can take that woman and keep her with you, like your father did with his first wife, I tell you, you're very mistaken. I'm not your mother, surviving on every

Chapter 93. A Glass of Wine.Jayden and his men headed to the back of the building where they stored the goods. As they started opening some containers, they were surprised by what they found. Far from being paintings and jewelry, though they did find some ancient objects and supposedly stolen jewels in one of the containers, nothing was more cruel than discovering people. It was easy to recognize that those people didn't belong."Are you sure Richard is in a secure location?" asked an older man, an old friend of Richard, Lieutenant Guedes, who led the mission with Jayden."I warned him not to leave the hall under any circumstances.""And his wife?""Should we call the police now?" one of the men asked."No, let them all gather in the basement, then seal everything so none of them can escape. At least a large number of them will be caught," Jayden warned as they continued to inspect each container, gathering all the evidence they needed.Meanwhile, in the hall, Taylor also set up a di

Chapter 94. Where is Richard?Richard, in turn, quickly headed underground and found the isolated but well-structured location for an illegal construction. There seemed to be several chambers, and he had no idea where to go."I'm underground!" he immediately informed Jayden over the cell phone."Damn it! What are you doing? It's too risky. We were about to close in, surrounding all four sides, and the CIA is already on their way!" Jayden angrily exclaimed."Stick to the plan; we have to find Elizabeth. They managed to capture her," Richard urgently warned."How? I told you my men couldn't be in a VIP area!" Jayden growled worriedly. "Stay on the line and get out of there; I want to make sure you've left safely," Jayden cautioned."I'm not leaving without finding her!"He continued down the corridor, but before reaching the auction hall, he was struck forcefully on the back of his neck. Immediately, the man informed Taylor, taking the phone from Richard's hands and ending the call. Jay
My ex's uncle is my husband. 95 - Meeting for the Plot
Chapter 95 - Meeting for the PlotUpon arriving at the location, the two brothers made their way to the restricted area and were surprised by the number of people being attended to. Among them were many children and adults, with few or no men or boys in sight. It was obvious that the easiest target was the most vulnerable. Passing through that place reminded him of immigrants, people from all ethnicities."What the hell is happening here?" murmured Brian, astounded."The biggest trafficking scheme was busted, and this is what happened. This event seemed like the perfect place for it, as it gathers people from various locations," commented Ryuk, noting the police vehicles, each carrying more than one man for questioning."Still, it seems like it's not over yet; more things are happening. The men working for the older Campbell are on some kind of search," Brian said, observing Jayden giving orders to the men, who quickly spread out searching as if they had lost something."What are you

Chapter 96 - From Missing to FugitiveIn the morning, the city was in chaos. Suddenly, news reports were announcing Richard's disappearance. Even though Jayden had planned to keep it quiet, it became impossible after Taylor spread the information about his supposed disappearance. By morning, the five men had given their statements. Before the halfway point of the day, it was already in all the newspapers.[Richard Campbell was responsible for Elizabeth's kidnapping, but why would the husband try to kill his wife?][Scheme: Richard Campbell attempted to kidnap his own wife. Was he planning to demand a billion-dollar ransom?]The Leblanc family read each news without reaction; it made no sense."This is madness; it seems like Taylor tried once again to harm his uncle," commented Ryuk."But this time, he tried, and we ended up in a scandal," said Zeus, worried."I never thought an ex-boyfriend could interfere so much in our sister's life," confessed Brian."Remind me to put him on the bl
