Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle

Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle

Ming Yue
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.

The doctor looked at Caroline Harper with a smile and said, "Miss Harper, congratulations! You are two months pregnant."

Caroline was surprised to hear this. She took the test result from the doctor and looked at it carefully. Was she really pregnant?

After confirming it, she left the doctor's office joyfully. She was so happy that when she got to the door, she took out her phone and made a phone call.

"What's up?" As soon as her call was connected, a man's deep voice sounded from the other end of the line.

Caroline called Damian Mayson, her husband. When she heard his cold voice, she felt a little sad. But when she thought of the good news that she was pregnant, she became happy again.

She was about to say something, but she hesitated for a while. In the end, she just said, "Are you coming back tonight? I have something to tell you."

Caroline thought she'd better tell him the news in person later.

"I'm not sure."

After saying this, Damian hung up the phone without even giving her a chance to say something more.

Caroline sighed and returned home. As soon as she entered the door and took off her shoes, she heard a harsh voice coming from the living room. "Caroline, where have you been all afternoon? You left without doing the housework. I've been calling you, but you're not answering your phone. How dare you!"

It was Damian's mother, Megan Mayson. She stood up, looked at Caroline disgustedly, and snapped, "Hurry and cook dinner now!"

Caroline lowered her head. She was already used to Megan's attitude, so she didn't retort. Instead, she replied in a weak voice, "Okay, Mom."

Caroline had already eaten dinner, but Damian had not returned home yet. She sat in the living room to wait for him. She couldn't help touching her belly, feeling a little disappointed.

It was late at night, and she had fallen asleep on the sofa. She only woke up when she vaguely heard the sound of a car outside.

Then Damian, in a black suit, came in. He was handsome, but he exuded a cold aura.
