My Husband Flirted With His Childhood Sweetheart

Summer Moreno, Jasper Clarke’s childhood sweetheart, went abroad years earlier.

After returning to the country a year ago, she learned that he had secretly married Esther Rivera.

Using her excuse of being his childhood sweetheart, she would pick fights with Esther at every opportunity.

Esther had cried, voiced her jealousy over Summer, and had even made a scene. However, Jasper only said that he saw Summer as a younger sister and told Esther to be patient and give in.

Back at the police station, Esther touched her belly, ignored Summer, and looked toward the station’s entrance.

Jasper arrived quickly. His tall frame drew everyone’s attention the moment he entered.

He did not look at Esther even once and walked straight to Summer.

“Sunny, are you okay?”

Summer shot a smug glance at Esther. She then jumped up from her chair and threw herself into his arms, looking at him with a pitiful expression.

“Jas, you’re finally here. I’ve never been to a police station before. I was so scared!”

He naturally wrapped his arm around her waist and comforted her, saying, “I’m here now. I’ve got you.”

The police officer, John Hayward, politely said, “So, Ms. Moreno is Mrs. Clarke after all. That pregnant woman sure sounded convincing. I can’t believe she turned out to be an imposter.”

Jasper turned to look at Esther in the corner like she was a stranger. He only glanced at her briefly before looking away.

He then said to John, “I’ll be taking my wife with me now.”

When he took Summer’s hand and turned to walk away, Esther spoke up in a hoarse voice.

“Wait,” she said.

She opened her bag, took out a marriage certificate, and handed it to John.

“This is my marriage certificate with Jasper. It has an official stamp. Feel free to verify it.”

Summer’s face turned pale. She looked at Jasper with a flustered expression and said, “Jas...”

He frowned.

Before John could reach out for the marriage certificate, Jasper snatched it away.

He tore it to pieces without hesitation, tossed them to the floor, and said, “It’s fake.”

Esther stared blankly at the pile of shredded paper on the floor. She then looked at him in disbelief.

Summer quickly recovered her composure. She leaned against his chest and let out a snicker.

“You probably don’t know this, but she’s just some low-level employee at Clarke Group. She has been living in a fantasy world, thinking she can marry up the social ladder.

“A few months ago, she got fired for constantly sending Jasper creepy love messages. Everyone at the company knew about it. Look at her now. She has gotten so unhinged that she is even bringing out fake documents.”

John frowned and looked at Esther, saying, “You got a fake marriage certificate just to pass yourself off as Mr. Clarke’s wife? Do you know that forging documents is a crime?

“He is the heir of the Clarke family. How dare you try to pull such a stunt on him?”

She stared stubbornly at Jasper. “Tell him, Jasper. Tell him if it’s fake.”

He just ignored her and took the triumphant Summer’s hand and left.

Esther stood there quietly, watching them leave. All the tears she had forced down while Summer tormented her finally came pouring out.

Due to her pregnancy, she was only detained for three days.

As she walked out of the police station, she spotted Jasper’s car parked at the curb.

When he saw her, he reached out and touched her pale cheek.

She turned her face to avoid his touch.

His expression stiffened.

What he said was meant to explain, but it came out more like an accusation.

“I told you from the start that we have to keep this marriage a secret. There was no reason to let your drama with Sunny escalate to calling the police and forcing me to acknowledge you as my wife publicly.

“Besides, she’s fragile. I couldn’t stand the thought of her being locked up, so I had to let you take the fall instead.

“Come on. Let’s head home first.”

Esther subconsciously traced her heavily swollen belly and smirked.

So, he could not bear to have his childhood sweetheart detained, yet he had no problem having his eight-month-pregnant wife detained.

“Jasper, I want a divorce.”
