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

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

Chapter 209: The Last Farewell Today at the mansion, everyone was excited, people came and went, both the Campbell and Leblanc families, employees went up and down bringing and taking things. 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.

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

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
