All Chapters of The Twisted Truth: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

On the day of Andre Ackhurst's funeral, I found out I was carrying his pup. He was my beloved fiancé.I tried our best to manage the pain of Andre's death for the sake of our pup, but my poor mood inevitably affected my pregnancy.Some of the common symptoms I experienced included dizziness, nausea, and edema. I lost nearly all my appetite, and I struggled through sleepless nights.Without the calming effect of Andre's pheromones, I had to put in extra effort to nurture the pup in my body. In less than two months' time, I lost over 20 pounds. When I looked into the mirror, I could see my protruding ribs and pallid skin.Even my in-laws advised me to abort the pup, forget about Andre, and start a new life. They did not have the heart to see me suffer, but I turned down their suggestion without hesitation."Do not bring that up again! Andre and I loved each other to bits. I will never erase his only bloodline in this world!"In the beginning, I was betrothed to Andre's younger twin

I stumbled away from my in-laws' room in panic.It wasn't until I arrived at my bedroom that I realized my face was tear-stained. My body was shaking like a leaf.The conversation I overheard just now had left a devastating impact on me. My fiancé was the one next to Callie right now. I never knew Andre had had a crush on Callie from a young age and that they were childhood sweethearts.He wasn't that different from Easton after all. Their true love was Callie.I couldn't accept the fact that he was the real culprit behind my disfiguration.When I was disfigured, I had endured insults on my appearance and felt too ashamed to look into the mirror. I grappled with social anxiety to the point where it was almost impossible to get out of the house.All the suffering I had been put through was because they cared more about Callie and wanted to stop me from marrying Easton.To think I had been grateful to Andre for saving me from the fire, and swore not to let him down!But the truth

Silence descended on the dining room. Everyone was in shock.Andre crushed the bowl in his grasp and shot up from his seat."Jane, you're not allowed to abort the pup!"Right after that, he realized that he shouldn't have treated me with that attitude, as he was playing the role of Easton.Eyes closed, he took two deep breaths before addressing me with a more respectful yet desperate tone, "I'm sorry, Jane. I was too worked up."But aren't you a little too cold-blooded to abort Andre's pup and remarry just days after his passing? Do you think he'd be happy if he learned about what you had done?"What you're doing is inappropriate. Andre was so nice to you when he was still alive. How could you abort his only bloodline in this world? Do you not love him anymore?"I was confused by his fake expression of fury, especially when he was in love with Callie.I turned my gaze to my in-laws. Then, I spoke to them with a depressing edge in my tone, "But you were the ones who told me to a

The next morning, just as expected, Andre brought up the idea of marrying both me and Callie. His parents backed him up."Jane, have you lost weight again? That's not healthy.""Pregnancy is tough—you really need to eat more.""George has thought it over for a long time, and he believes it's best if Easton marries both of you. At least someone will be there to look after you. It's better than having no one at all."Felicia chimed in too, "Yes, Andre is gone. George and I are getting old. Easton is now the strongest in our entire clan. It's his responsibility to take care of the family."If he marries both of you, you shouldn't feel uncomfortable. It's the right thing to do. And if he treats you poorly, just come to me. No matter what, we're still family, aren't we?"We hadn't been a family in a long time.I looked around the room. Surprisingly, Callie didn't object to the idea this time. Who knew what Andre had told her? She merely stared at me with burning hatred, as if she w

Andre's face went pale in an instant. He muttered to himself, "No. That's impossible. Jane values her fiancé and her pup more than her own life. She'd never do something like that."Besides, she has slept with her fiancé. Don't these suitors care about that?"As soon as he said that, all the warriors around us looked furious. His words were an insult to both me and them.Some of the hot-tempered warriors came over to challenge Andre, who had no choice but to line up for the challenges. The participants would be tested on their intelligence, strength, and reflexes in each of the three challenges.Andre couldn't even pass the first challenge. He was repeatedly defeated and had to line up all over again.In the end, he had no choice but to bribe someone else for the answers.The remaining two challenges were increasingly brutal. It took Andre a week to make it through all the challenges for the right to see me.Upon meeting me, Felicia started venting, "Jane, what's this game you
