Chapter 8

"Do you like him?" Colin Holmes repeated.

"Who is it?"

"That guy just now."

"No."

Colin Holmes didn't feel surprised.

"Did you ever go to B city when you were a child?"

When I heard this, I immediately became vigilant. Did this person detect something wrong with me, so he came to test me?

B City, isn't that the place where Andrea Bailey grew up?

Under the high-speed operation of my brain, I immediately shook my head and denied, "I have never been there."

Colin Holmes's eyes narrowed as if something was flashing inside. Even his voice was lower. "You haven't been there?"

"I've never been there!" I insist.

I've been hanging out with A city since I was A child. I've never been to B city.

Somehow, hearing my answer, Colin Holmes seemed to be relieved. He leaned against the chair with one hand supporting his forehead.

"Are you familiar with Andrea Bailey?"

If I hadn't been so concentrated, I would have jumped up from the chair!

Who else is more familiar than me?

Then--

Siobhan Bailey's POV

"Not familiar." I rolled my eyes.

"I think so." Colin Holmes seemed to be talking to me or to himself.

I don't know what he is doing.

"Are you full? Let me drive you home if you are full."

"No, thanks." I waved my hands and tried to avoid him. After all, it's my first time to meet him today. Although I'm interested in handsome men, I still have to be careful of their beauty.

Colin Holmes raised his eyebrows and looked at me with a faint smile.

"You have a girlfriend now, and I have a boyfriend now. It's not appropriate."

"Why didn't you say it was inappropriate when I fed you just now?"

"I didn't have a plate just now. Now I have a driver!"

"Oh? Where is your driver?"

Only then did I realize where my driver is?

I didn't see Kelly Moore either.

I made a phone call. It didn't take long for Kelly Moore to come here. She didn't seem to be surprised to see Colin Holmes with me.

The silver gray Rolls-Royce stopped at the gate of the Bailey Family mansion and I got off.

When I walked in the yard, I realized that I went out to buy a dress today, but I didn't buy it back. I was so angry.

What a bad luck.

Whe I opened the door of the villa, I was greeted with a slap.

My heart was still fluttering with fear. If I hadn't dodged quickly, my face would have been ruined?

"Beauty Killer!" Bruce Bailey asked angrily.

"I'll leave it to Chris Harris."

"Siobhan!" Sally Bailey frowned and shouted unhappily, "that's the property of our Bailey Group. How can you give it to an outsider?"

"Then who do you think is your wife?" I crossed my arms over my chest and raised my eyebrows to look at her.

"Even if it's your boyfriend who will take care of it, can you come back after you give it to an outsider?"

"Boyfriend? Where did I get a boyfriend?"

"Isn't Johnny your boyfriend?"

I almost couldn't help laughing out loud. If I could get it back after giving it to Johnny Stewart, it would be impossible!

And... Johnny?How intimate!

"If I give it to Johnny, at least it's our family. Siobhan, you're young. I don't blame you for being thoughtless." Sally Bailey said sincerely, pretending to be generous.

Young? I tilted my head and smiled, thinking about my age.

"Mom!" Sharon Bailey cried out, "I saw her having an affair with Chris Harris today. She must have cuckolded my cousin!"

Cousin? I was stunned.

Was there any relation between Johnny Stewart and Sally Bailey?

Johnny Stewart never told me about it, nor did Sally Bailey!

Just now, Sally Bailey said that Johnny Stewart was a member of her family. Then I finally understood why Sally Bailey kept praising Johnny Stewart in front of me and trying to sell him to me. It turned out they were relatives!

If it weren't for Sally Bailey, I wouldn't have been with Johnny Stewart.

When Johnny Stewart's company was just sarted, the capital turnover was not good, but every time Johnny Stewart had a way to solve the problem. Andrea Bailey had thought about where his money came from. It turned out that he had been swindled from Siobhan Bailey!

The two people's memories were connected, making everything clear that could not be explained at the beginning. And this also exposed the conspiracy of Sally Bailey.

Conspiracy, it was a conspiracy!

Sally Bailey had been paying attention to my mother's will, but she couldn't do anything about it. It was clearly written in the will that the shares of the Bailey Group belonged to Siobhan Bailey, so Sally Bailey could not fight for it openly, but could only fight in secret!

"Sharon, don't talk nonsense! Siobhan is your sister!" Of course, Sally Bailey didn't know that I had thought everything through. As before, she still wanted to act as a good mother.

"Because of her, I lost my face in front of Colin!" Sharon Bailey was still crying. She hadn't seen Colin Holmes for many times, and it was ruined by Siobhan Bailey. How could she not be angry!

Thinking of this, Sharon Bailey really wanted to strangle her.

"It doesn't matter. You are his girlfriend. There will be many chances in the future." Sally Bailey tried to comfort her.

The noisy living room finally calmed down a little. Bruce Bailey rubbed his forehead wearily and said, "I don't care what method you use. You must get the shop back from Chris Harris!"

"What if I say no?"

"Believe it or not..." Bruce Bailey raised his hand high again.

"Beat! right here!" I pointed at my face and said, "remember, beat hard!"

"I haven't been beaten for a long time. I almost forget what it feels like." I ironically looked at Bruce Bailey's stiff movements.

"I'm sleepy. I'll go upstairs first." I strode up the stairs and made a phone call. "Send me a set of Beauty Killer's clothes this year to the Bailey Family mansion. Yes, one for each style!"

Bruce Bailey almost fainted when he saw how lawless I was.

Sharon Bailey glared at the empty stairway. Why! Why could she be so arrogant!

The person in charge of the Beauty Killer was very efficient. After a short while, he came over with his men and hung all the things in the cloakroom of my bedroom. There were also a variety of jewelry, shoes, bags... The people in the hall were sitting on the sofa, staring blankly at a group of people coming and going.

An hour had passed, but the things were still not sent out. Bruce Bailey couldn't help but stand up and pull a person.

"Isn't it a little too much?"

Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle Novel Cover
7.8
Twenty minutes before the "Wedding of the Century" at The Plaza, I stood outside the Presidential Suite in a fifty-thousand-dollar Vera Wang gown. I was the girl from a West Virginia trailer park about to marry Hugh Maxwell, the golden heir to a billion-dollar defense empire. I pushed the door open only to find Hugh pinned against the bed with my own stepsister, Floy. She was wearing my bridal diamond necklace, and the sounds of their laughter scraped against my eardrums like sandpaper. I didn't scream; I listened as Hugh grunted that once the wedding was over and the trust fund unlocked, he’d dump "that hillbilly trash" on a bus back to the mountains. They weren't just cheating; they were planning to steal my family’s land deeds and leave me with nothing. When I set off the sprinklers and exposed their naked bodies to the paparazzi, the Maxwell family didn't apologize. They called me a "greedy peasant" and threatened to ruin my life unless I signed a new deal to save their crashing stock. I realized then that I was never a bride to them. I was a transaction, a rounding error in a ledger to be used and discarded. They thought my poverty made me weak and my silence made me a victim. "If we don't have a marriage certificate by midnight, the bank freezes thirty percent of our liquidity," their lawyer warned. So, I gave them exactly what they wanted. I used a loophole in their hundred-year-old family covenant and married the only other direct heir available. I didn't marry Hugh. I walked into the ICU and married his uncle, Fleet Maxwell—the legendary war hero who had been in a vegetative state for months. Now, I am the matriarch of the Maxwell dynasty. I’ve suspended Hugh’s executive powers, exiled my mother-in-law to the Swiss Alps, and taken control of the family vault. They think I’m just a gold-digger waiting for a "corpse" to die so I can collect a fifty-million-dollar widow's payout. But last night, as I lay beside my comatose husband, the man they called a vegetable gripped my hand back.
