Married As His Contractual Wife, Now He Spoils Me Silly! Chapter 173
AVERY WINTERS “It’s honestly hard to believe that Aaron actually turned out to be Bernard biological son,” Scarlet said in complete disbelief over the phone.“So how exactly is Bernard reacting to all of this now?” Ivy chimed in.I sighed heavily before leaning back into my chair tiredly.“Well…” I trailed off slowly. “I honestly don’t even know how to explain it properly. Ever since he returned from the hospital, he’s been acting strangely.”I rubbed my forehead lightly before continuing.“Right now, as we’re speaking, he’s inside his study burying himself completely in work.”“If I were in his position, I would probably do the exact same thing,” Charlotte admitted immediately. “Just give him some time, Avery. He will eventually come around.”“You really think so?” I asked uncertainly. “Because honestly, I’m confused. He should be happy about this, shouldn’t he? I don’t understand why he’s still so moody.”“You need to understand what he’s going through emotionally,” Scarlet said so

AVERY WINTERS“Oh my goodness…” I gasped out in complete shock.The paper slipped right out of my fingers and fluttered onto the floor as both of my hands flew toward my mouth instinctively. My eyes widened so much that they almost popped out of its socket. For a moment, my entire body froze from disbelief before I regain my composure back.“Dear, what does it say?” Rose asked immediately, her voice filled with concern as she stared at my shocked expression. “Why do you look so startled? Is Aaron really not Bernard's child?”I quickly bent down, picked up the report with shaky hands, and looked back at her with tears already welling up in my eyes.“He’s… he’s truly Bernard's son, Mom,” I whispered softly. “Aaron truly carries Bernard's blood in his veins.”I handed the paper over to her immediately as those words left my mouth.Rose calmly collected the document from me and carefully went through the result herself. Surprisingly, unlike me, she remained completely composed. There was

AVERY WINTERS NEXT MORNINGMorning came far earlier than usual for the both of us.Normally, he would wake up around 6:30 every morning, but today, by exactly five o’clock, he was already awake and getting dressed.Honestly, I doubted he had gotten any sleep at all throughout the night.I remained silent and simply watched him quietly as he prepared himself. I knew his mind was restless, and there was nothing I could say right now that would calm the storm raging inside him completely.Once he finished dressing up, he walked toward me and stopped directly in front of the bed.“You’re leaving this early?” I asked softly, my sleepy voice barely above a whisper. “It’s not even six o’clock yet, Bernard. At least wait until the weather clears up a little.”“That’s exactly why I need to leave now,” he replied immediately. “I need to get this over with once and for all. I just… I don’t know anymore, Avery.”His voice sounded tired, anxious, and emotionally drained.“Do you want me to come w

AVERY WINTERS THREE MONTHS LATERBernard and I arrived home at the same time, and the moment we stepped inside the mansion and made our way upstairs to our bedroom, we both decided to take a shower. The entire house was quiet and calm, wrapped in the stillness of the late night, and honestly, all I wanted was to crawl into bed beside my husband and sleep peacefully in his arms.The moment he walked out of the bathroom with only a towel hanging loosely around his waist, a sudden knock echoed through the room.Both of us immediately turned toward the door at the exact same time, exchanging confused glances because we were not expecting anyone at this hour. It was already very late into the night, and neither Bernard nor I had invited anyone over.“Who’s that?” Bernard asked coldly, his deep voice sharp and controlling.I instantly noticed the slight change in his mood again. Ever since we returned home earlier, he had been unusually quiet and distant. In fact, his mood started shiftin

AVERY WINTERS Finally, peace had returned to the house.For the first time in a long while, the mansion no longer felt suffocating or filled with hidden tension. Everywhere felt calmer, lighter… cleaner. It was almost as though the bad omen that had been hanging over this house for months had finally disappeared together with Hazel.Now that she was gone, we could finally focus on something else— the spies she had planted all over the places and within the mansion itself.Although Bernard had already managed to fish out many of them, deep down, I still believed there were more hiding among us.And if there truly were more traitors left, then we would definitely deal with every single one of them.“So, what’s next now?” Charlotte asked curiously.I smiled softly before grabbing her hand and gently caressing her arm.“What else besides your wedding?” I asked teasingly. “It’s already around the corner, and we absolutely cannot afford to make any mistakes.”“Avery is right,” Harper immed

AVERY WINTERS The same punishment that had once been bestowed upon Jonathan was now being given to Hazel too. However, hers was far worse than what Jonathan had suffered. Exactly the way Bernard and I had discussed it in private was exactly how he carried it out before everyone.While Bernard was exposing every single thing Hazel had done, he almost revealed Aaron’s true identity as well, but I quickly stopped him before the words could leave his mouth completely.Even after all her secrets had been exposed before the entire organization, Hazel still refused to admit to any of it. Despite the countless accusations, the evidence against her, and the hateful glares directed her way, she continued denying everything stubbornly. She kept insisting that Bernard was mistaken, as if all the proof against her meant absolutely nothing.Even while the guards dragged her away, she continued screaming and threatening me at the top of her lungs. She kept yelling that Bernard belonged to her, and

AVERY WINTERSLater, in the evening, I sat in the living room, scrolling through my emails. I hadn't gone to the office that day, so I was trying to catch up with work before it becomes overload for me. Just then, the main door swung open, and my gaze snapped up.Harper Reed walked in, and my eye

AVERY WINTERSIt's been two months already. Two months of torture of Harper staying with us. I'm still in the dark about whether Bernard had resolved the issue with the Nikolai psychopath or not.Maybe, he has, considering that he's been assuring me everything was now fine. His men had also stoppe

AVERY WINTERS"I know... But I wan-" "Shhhh" he said, placing his index finger on my lips. "Why would you even doubt this? This is about us, and we should be positive," he paused, and then continued again."Yes, you've tried before, and it didn't work, but it will be different this time. Listen, D

AVERY WINTERSButterflies were at work in my stomach, and my toes curled up in excitement. If I was told my relationship with Bernard would progress this far— in such a positive way and get to this stage, I would've denied it. The kiss started slowly, but as the moment passed, he quicken it's pac
