After four years with Killian, I got pregnant. I took the pregnancy test and my ID to a private hospital to set up a file, but when entering insurance information, I was stopped by the blonde administrative specialist. "Mrs. Smith, the system shows there is a problem with your marital status." She looked at me awkwardly. "Your marriage to Mr. Killian is not legally effective." I was stunned and instinctively retorted, "That's impossible. We registered in Las Vegas, all the procedures were..." "There is only an application record, no final signed effective document." The specialist turned the screen around and tapped the keyboard a few times. "Moreover, Mr. Killian's legal wife... shows another lady's name." That name was like a thorn, piercing fiercely into my retina. Elena. Killian's personal secretary, and also publicly recognized as the benefactor who saved his life in the Alps avalanche five years ago. I felt all the blood in my body flowing backward. How could it be her?

Getting Away From Fake Marriage, I Met True Love Chapter 22
We chose a private island in Seychelles for our honeymoon.There were no annoying media here, no endless paperwork—just pure white beaches and the gentle breeze of the Indian Ocean.In the afternoon, Ethan went to the kitchen to prepare a fruit platter for me.I leaned lazily on the sofa and casually turned on the wall-mounted TV.BBC World News was playing.The footage was shaky and grainy, with a background of devastated ruins and the continuous sound of gunfire."This is a war zone in Central Africa. Although government forces have intervened, the medical situation in the refugee camps remains dire..."The reporter's voice sounded a bit distorted against the noisy background.The camera panned over desperate refugees and finally settled on a makeshift field medical tent.A man wearing a bulletproof vest, covered in dust and blood, was kneeling on the ground, fully focused on bandaging a child whose leg had been blown off.His hair was long, his stubble messy, and he was so thin he l

Late at night, after the banquet ended.I thought that "rebellious" declaration would bring down severe punishment on us.But Ethan held my hand, leading me through the long corridor hung with portraits of past patriarchs, to a mahogany door deep in the manor.That was the sitting room of the Rothschild family's true matriarch—Ethan's grandmother."Don't be afraid."Ethan squeezed my cold fingers, his gaze firm."If she doesn't accept you, we'll go back to Bordeaux and never return."The door opened.It wasn't the oppressive inquisition I had imagined.The fire in the fireplace was burning brightly. A silver-haired elderly lady sat in a velvet armchair, flipping through an art book.It was my portfolio.Hearing our footsteps, she slowly raised her head.Those eyes, weathered by time yet still wise and sharp, looked exactly like Ethan's."Grandmother." Ethan bowed slightly, his posture respectful, yet he still guarded me closely.The old lady ignored her grandson, her gaze landing strai

Although our days in Bordeaux were peaceful and idyllic, as the heir to the Rothschild family, Ethan eventually had to face his responsibilities.At the end of the year, Ethan took me back to the centuries-old estate in London for a family banquet.Every blade of grass and every tree there exuded an air of ancient, austere nobility.Looking at the portraits of past patriarchs hanging on the walls and the predatory gazes of the distant relatives eyeing Ethan, that sensitive nerve in my heart was struck once again.My body had suffered irreversible damage in that wine cellar at five degrees below zero, due to the prolonged hypothermia and that traumatic miscarriage.The doctor had said my uterine lining had become dangerously thin. It would be difficult for me to conceive again in this lifetime, and even if I did, there was a high probability of another miscarriage.On the eve of the banquet, I sat at the vanity, looking at myself in the mirror wearing a luxurious gown, yet I felt incred

Three years later.Bordeaux, France.September sunshine poured like golden honey over the rolling vineyards.The air was suffused with the aroma of fermenting grapes and the fragrance of the earth.I was wearing mud-stained overalls and a straw hat, squatting under the grape trellis pruning branches."Easy does it, Halen. Don't hurt the vines."A warm voice sounded from behind.Ethan wrapped his arms around me from behind, his broad palm covering the back of my hand, patiently correcting my movements.For the past three years, we had settled in this ancient winery named "Serendipity."Far away from the noise of New York, and far from the schemes and deceit of wealthy families.We were like an ordinary farm couple.We rose with the sun and rested with the moon.We made wine together, watching the purple juice ferment into mellow nectar in oak barrels.We rode horses through the morning mist in the woods to watch the sunrise from the mountaintop.Ethan's gentlemanliness and respect were

When I woke up, I was in a hospital room filled with the smell of disinfectant.The emptiness in my abdomen told me the result even before I asked the doctor."Mrs. Smith, I'm sorry."The doctor took off his mask, his tone professional and cold."You arrived too late. The prolonged exposure to low t
