Live A Happy Life With Your First Love, Dearest Wife

Alden looked around to make sure no one was paying attention. Then, he lowered his voice and took a step closer.

“We’re at the office. Let’s find somewhere else to talk. This isn’t appropriate.

“It’s not what you think. Celene’s reputation is at stake. Do you really want people to be pointing fingers at her?

“Let’s find a place to sit down and talk this through properly.”

‘Talk?’ I thought.

I had seen this with my own eyes. What was there to talk about?

A man who was from the dead and a newborn baby…

Was that not enough?

I shot him a cold glare, shoved him aside, and stormed straight toward the elevator.

Rage burned in my chest and threatened to consume me.

All I wanted now was to drag Celene out and confront her face-to-face. I wanted to see what other excuses she could come up with.

I moved with lightning speed. Just as I kicked open the office door, Alden finally arrived.

But the office was empty.

Alden closed the door and blocked the prying eyes outside.

“I already told you! Celene is busy. We can talk about this another time or discuss it at home.”

He spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, but I was so furious that my head was spinning. “Home? Where exactly?

“To the apartment we bought for our marriage, or the three-bedroom place you two call your love nest?”

I had bought her a three-bedroom apartment because I was concerned that she was working too hard, only to learn that she had built a new life there with another man.

It was disgusting!

Just then, a pair of adorable little girls ran out of the break room.

The two children looked remarkably alike, with fair, delicate skin that made them utterly charming.

If they were not Celene’s children with another man, I would have felt sorry for them.

“Daddy, why are you back?”

“Daddy, do you miss Mommy again?”

The two children spoke up one after the other.

I looked at them and finally understood.

All her excuses of late-night overtime work, her reluctance to drive home, and her staying up at the office were to spend time with her other family.

That was a place that felt more like a home to her than the marriage she shared with me.

On her desk sat a family portrait of the four of them. Celene and Alden nestled together, each holding a child in their arms.

That image truly made them look like a happy, loving couple.

I could no longer contain my anger and immediately dialed a number. “I want you to get all the evidence of Celene’s affair, as well as the paternity test results for her and the children, as soon as possible.

“I want her to leave with nothing. You know what to do.”

I hung up.

Alden’s face darkened. “Are you going to ruin Celene?

“Do you have any idea how much blood, sweat, and tears she’s poured into running this company? How can you ruin it just like that?”

The way he so eagerly defended Celene left me momentarily dazed.

It was as if I were the one who had committed an unforgivable sin.

“Alden Lane, who do you think you are? What right do you have to question me here?”

I glared at him coldly.

His face darkened. He took a few steps closer, still holding the child, and lowered his voice so only I could hear. “Emrys Clark, don’t you think we look a lot alike?

“Actually, you’re just my stand-in. Celene married you only because she thought I wouldn’t be coming back. Otherwise, do you think she’d ever marry you?”

His words were shameless, yet they hit the nail on the head.

I looked so much like him that even our friends struggled to tell us apart. If we did not look so alike, I would not have found any of this.

Provoked by his words, my composure snapped, and I raised my fist to punch him.

But before I could strike, he screamed and clutched the child as he fell backward onto the floor. His face was etched with terror.

“Emrys, how could you be so cruel? Hitting me is one thing, but you’d hurt my child, too?”

He dropped the child onto the floor with a thud.

Immediately, he scrambled to his feet and rushed over to pick up the child. “Baby! Are you okay?”

“Emrys, I know you like Celene, but she and I already have children. We’ve been together for so many years. Why won’t you just let go?”

As soon as he said that, the onlookers could no longer contain themselves and rushed in.

Most of these people had never seen me before, and even if they had, they would not know who I was.

All they saw was a furious and aggressive person, while Alden looked distressed with a child in his arms.

They scrambled to help Alden to his feet, then turned to confront me.

“You’ve gone too far! Even if you like Ms. Zeller, it doesn’t give you the right to hit someone!”

“Exactly! You wouldn’t even spare a newborn baby! You’re out of your mind!”

“Who gave you the nerve to act so wild here? Do you even know whose turf this is?”

The twins started crying. Their shrill wails added to the chaos.

“You’re picking on Daddy, and you’re picking on my little brother, too!”

“I’m going to beat you up! You big meanie!”

The two little girls began kicking and punching me.

“What’s going on? Why isn’t anyone working? Why are you all gathered here?”

Celene’s stern voice rang out, and the crowd instinctively parted to make a way.

She walked in and saw Alden sitting on the sofa with red, swollen eyes.

“Celene!” Alden immediately threw himself at her with tears streaming down his face. “If you’d been a moment later, the kids and I would’ve been beaten to death!”

She wiped his tears and soothed him softly. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here. No one can hurt you.

“What on earth happened?”

Only then did her gaze fall upon me. The two little girls were still kicking and punching me.

She instinctively panicked but forced herself to remain calm.

“Celene, save our child! He not only hit me but also tried to throw our son to his death!”

Upon hearing this, Celene completely lost control. She rushed toward me and slapped me hard across the face.

“Emrys, who gave you the nerve to hurt my child?

“There’s a limit to your nonsense! Do you think just because I’m paying your father’s medical bills, you can take advantage of me? Are you sure that I won’t stop his treatment after this?”
