Love You Kill You Female Edition

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.

When Mango Shen got the pregnancy test result, she shed tears of joy.

She was pregnant!

She was pregnant with Nathaniel Ye's child!

After three years of marriage, she finally had his child, which was too difficult for her.

She was on her way out with the test result in her hand, and a smile on her face. She couldn't wait to deliver the good news to Nathaniel. Yet, when she turned around a corner, a familiar figure flashed by.

"Macy Cho?"

Nathaniel's first love! She came back! How come?

Mango quickly followed her, only to find that Nathaniel, who was supposed to be in the company, was accompanying Macy and carefully holding her. And her stomach was obviously impregnated with a baby more than five months old.

"Nathan, I'm fine. Don't be nervous. The child is going to be OK."

"Be more cautious. After all, the child in your belly is the first child of our Ye Family. We can't take the risk."

Macy's smile looked happy, and Nathan treated her gently. This scene deeply hurt Shen Mange.

"What are you doing?"

Mango suddenly held the pregnancy test sheet in her hand, and her nails pierced her palm through the paper, but it was less than one-thousandth of the pain in her heart.

Mango was not always in her best health condition. In order to give birth to a child for Nathaniel, she tried all the folk prescriptions and tried every hospital in the past three years. She almost died several times. Yet, when she finally confirmed her pregnancy, the least she would expect, was that Macy pregnant with Nathaniel's baby too.

"Why are you here?"

Nathaniel's brows suddenly furrowed. His eyes, which were as gentle as water, had also become sharp and cold, as if the temperature around him also dropped to subzero.

Mango could not help but went forward to question him, when seeing the change of his attitude.

"Why am I here? Nathaniel Ye, I am your wife. Now you are accompanying the mistress to the pregnancy test. How dare you ask me why I am here?"

Her question attracted the attention of the people around.

Macy suddenly cried with grievances.

"Nathan, I'm sorry. I got you into trouble. If I hadn't come back and told you about the existence of our child, or if I had forced myself to give up the baby, maybe I wouldn't have you misunderstood by Mango. Sorry, it's all my fault."

After that, Macy turned and ran.

"Tom, follow Miss Cho and watch out for her. Make sure everything is alright with her and the baby. Or you are in trouble."

Sense the anxiety in Nathaniel's voice, Thomas Song, Nathaniel's assistant, sprint to follow her.
