Chapter 7
Kieran’s words made the classmates who had just been cursing and spitting at me all gasp in shock.[]
“Did I hear that right? Mr. Holt said Sarah Channing is the billionaire’s wife?!“]]
“How is that possible? Isn’t Sarah just some bottom–feeder loser?“]
“Yeah, what the hell is going on?”
Not only were our classmates confused, but Autumn looked at Kieran in complete disbelief:]
“Kieran, you’re joking, right?“]
“Sarah Channing is just disgusting trash from the gutter. How could she be your wife?“]
Faced with Autumn’s questioning, Kieran said earnestly and lovingly:]
“Autumn, my marriage to her was arranged by my father. I couldn’t refuse it.“[]
“But the only person I truly love is you.“]
Kieran was publicly declaring his love for Autumn right in front of me.]
This was a complete slap in the face to me as his legitimate wife.]]
Hearing this, the classmates who had just looked at me with shock immediately returned to their sneering expressions:[]
“Ha! I thought someone had actually made it big, but turns out she’s still just a fake!“[]
“Mr. Holt dares to admit his love for Autumn right in front of his legal wife–that shows how important Autumn really is to him!“]
“Exactly! Whoever has Mr. Holt’s love is the real billionaire’s wife!“]
“This Sarah Channing is still nothing in the end!“]
Autumn’s expression went from shock to pain to being moved.]
“Kieran, hearing you say that makes my love worthwhile.“]
She looked at Kieran with adoring eyes, then turned to me provocatively:]
“Sarah Channing, if you know what’s good for you, you’ll leave my Kieran alone.“[]
“Some positions aren’t meant for bottom feeders like you.“[]
I looked at Kieran and asked:]
“Is that what you think too?”
Kieran’s face was cold as he said bluntly: “Our marriage was always just a business arrangement–no feelings involved.“]]
“But Autumn is different.“[]
“She’s carrying my child. I’m giving her a proper wedding, and you should accept that.“]
“If you can have that awareness and accept me being with Autumn, then you can keep the title of billionaire’s wife.“[]
I laughed.
“You think I actually care about being the billionaire’s wife?“]
Kieran frowned slightly, his voice arrogant and icy:[]
“What else?”
“This position is what countless women dream of.“[]
Kieran’s face was filled with unmatched arrogance and disdain.]]
As if I were some useless parasite living off him.]
As if I couldn’t survive without him.]
But I found it absolutely ridiculous.]]
“Kieran Holt, you’re underestimating me.“]
P
He should think about why his father had come begging me repeatedly back then, asking me to agree to this arranged marriage.
Kieran snorted coldly, adding a note of contempt to his gaze:[]
“Sarah Channing, you’re the one overestimating yourself.“[]
“If my father hadn’t told me to maintain this marriage, you wouldn’t even be worthy of a second glance from me.‘
“Let alone coming to disrupt mine and Autumn’s wedding.“]
Disrupt?
I looked at Kieran and laughed softly:]]
“As a married man, you’re betraying your family, marrying someone else and having a child with them, and instead of feeling ashamed, you think I’m disrupting things?”
“Do you understand what bigamy is?“]
“Do you have any respect for the law?”
Kieran looked completely disdainful: “Only incompetent people resort to talking about the law.“]
Chapter 7
“All you need to know is that as Chicago’s richest man, I can make you the billionaire’s wife, and I can make you nothing.“]
I raised an eyebrow: “Are you threatening me?“]
Kieran stared directly at me: “I’m giving you a chance.“[]
“From now on, when Autumn is home, you just need to take good care of her and the child. Don’t upset her, and don’t get any ideas you shouldn’t have.“[]
“Take good care of them, and your life will be easier.“]]
I asked again: “And if I don’t agree?“]
Kieran’s face darkened: “Then I’ll take away everything you have now.“[]
“Leave you with nothing.“[]
Leave me with nothing?
I laughed:
“Kieran Holt, since you’re planning to be so ruthless about this.“]
“Then I don’t need to spare your feelings anymore either.“[]
“Let’s see who can really leave whom with nothing.“]
