last update Terakhir Diperbarui: 2025-05-22 18:01:39

Jace's POV.

I was angry with Clara, but I couldn't send her away, especially after hearing that she is pregnant by me.

I was stunned and unable to believe the news.

I knew that I had unprotected sex with Clara, but she was not pregnant then, and she didn't tell me about it until now.

It made me feel more guilty that I had been sleeping with Celine unprotectedly before her sister got back.

Unfortunately, Celine wasn't pregnant, and I couldn't tell if she went to get another contraceptive in her bakery shop or not to get rid of all my effort to make her pregnant.

I sat in my study in the penthouse, thinking of all that I had done with Celine.

If only I had confronted her and not listened to Edwin's advice to play along, then Celine and I wouldn't have gone far with our affairs.

I felt guilty as I went through some of our past videos that I had saved.

I knew that during the last moment that I spent with Celine, she was nervous mainly because she knew that she had lied to me and she was p

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 66

    Jace's POV.The police inspector invited me into the room and asked me multiple questions, "Senator Jace Augustus. We haven't thought of you to be involved in this scandal despite your loyalty and preaching of uprightness in the society.""Mmm. It's a personal problem and I never intended for any of this to happen. My wife tricked me into marrying her twin, and I am trying to get myself out of the mess that she had created," I said, as I looked at the police officer's face."It's understandable. Kindly share with us what you think and who you feel is holding your wife hostage. Did she run away or did she leave on her own and told you not to contact her again?" The police woman asked, but I shook my head sadly."It was my fault. If I had my guard up, I shouldn't have allowed Celine to leave my house without my security. I never allowed her out of my sight, but that particular day, I was broken and ordered her to sign the divorce papers and leave me. Which she declined because she wasn'

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 65

    Clara's POV.I hadn't expected to see Luca arrive here to arrest me.Jace tried to defend himself, but Luca refused."Luca, you are taking this too far. Do you not care more about your reputation if this gets out to the public? Celine is not a public figure, and she said that she would leave once I returned. Have you thought of it—if it was her decision to leave us?" I asked my older brother, even when I knew that he cares more about Celine than he cares about me."Cut the crap, Clara. I know about all that, and it will be best for the public to know that you are aware of where Celine is. But you do not want to tell us. Officer, take them away. They have to confess where they have taken Celine too, and I want them searched. Including their phones and call logs," Luca deadpanned, and the two police men looked at me and Jace and ordered us, "Madam, Chief Augustus, we are sorry for the inconveniences. But you have to follow us to the station for questioning and bring your phone along too

    Jace's POV."Babe…" Clara walked into the room further to meet me, as I had just stepped out of the bathroom door. "I cannot sleep alone. I am having so much pain in my stomach, and that's because I need you," she said, making me scowl.I felt that Clara wanted to use her pregnancy to trap me. Especially now that I had filed for a divorce."But you left for three months and could sleep alone in Los Angeles?" I asked her coldly, and she flinched."Yes, it was torture." However, her hands flew to her stomach and she cried, "Ah! I am so sorry, Jace. I am sorry, please…"I sighed, knowing that I cannot send Clara away now. As much as her presence irritated me, I cannot risk losing my child."It's fine. Since you want to sleep here, you can move over to the bed and sleep on it, but know that there's no cuddling between us," I told her coldly, as I moved away to the closet to find my night robe and donned it."But I want you close to me," Clara started sobbing, but I silenced her."Don't te

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 62

    Clara's POV.Luca was silent at first, then he asked me, "Do you not feel any shame, Clara? How could you be pregnant and yet allow Celine to sleep with Jace? What if she is pregnant by him too? Because she told me that she and Jace had sex.""Mmm. Celine told me that she wasn't pregnant. I think you saw her before she disappeared and went home," I countered, not expecting my brother to know so much."Can you listen to yourself, Clara? What if Celine is unable to tell any of us that she is pregnant? What if that's why she ran away because she cannot stand the shame of being pregnant by her twin sister's husband?" Luca's voice was filled with regret as he said, "I wish she had told me before agreeing to your nonsense. I find it repulsive that Jace slept with both you and Celine. He is not the only man, Clara. Why not divorce Jace and come back home?""No way. What about my baby? I cannot divorce Jace, and do not tell me this rubbish again. Goodnight." I ended the call with my only brot

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 61

    Clara's POV.I watched Jace's hardened expression soften."Are you sure that you're pregnant, Clara? How am I sure that you are pregnant by me? We have to do a pregnancy test to be sure that you are carrying my child. Why would you hide it from me all this while?" Jace asked as he paced in front of me.Though I hadn't expected him to forget about Celine so easily, he appeared conflicted, so I brought out the medical test result of Celine's pregnancy and showed it to him.I ensured the test result didn't have any address in this area, as I showed him the result as positive."I am pregnant by you, Jace… Here, take a look. I cannot believe that you hate me so much and would think that I cheated on you during my stay abroad. How can you do this to me and our child?" I sobbed as I walked back to sit on the living room black couch.Tears streaked down my cheeks, and Jace came and sat beside me. I knew that he was concerned for the baby."I am sorry, Clara. I didn't mean to make you cry. It'

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 60

    Clara's POV.I paced about the living room, waiting for Jace to return after he left the house angrily. I knew that he was into my sister, and I thought I made the right decision to capture Celine, but she made things difficult for me and Jace. As much as I regretted using my twin sister to keep Jace, I cannot lose him to her. I have never lost, and I cannot stand the thought of it now.Why would Jace be acting so cold to me? Why would he storm out of the house and threaten to file for a divorce?I did everything because I love him. If he had waited for me to return from the award ceremony and winning my rightful place as the top model of the year, Celine wouldn't have gotten involved with him.I hadn't thought of the repercussions, but I didn't take the nightmares seriously.As I phoned Jace to ask him where he was after having my dinner alone, I could sense the nervousness in his voice when he asked me if Luca contacted me.I didn't want to give Jace the benefit of the doubt that I

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 59

    JACE'S POV "Where is Celine!" I asked Luca like I was a mad man who was already losing his mind. "Celine?" Luca asked me with widened eyes, as he was stunned, thinking that I already found out the difference in his younger twin sisters. "Celine is not here. I thought she wanted to stay with you and Clara until tomorrow. She said she was not coming home," Luca said. As I strode to meet him, I grasped his shirt and yelled at him, "Do not lie to me. Clara was the one who said that. Clara was the one who traveled abroad, and my wife is not Clara. You and your parents, alongside Celine, colluded and presented Celine to me as my bride while Clara went for her awards event. Do you think I am a fool or someone to be easily gullible?!" Luca gulped hard, as he couldn't say any more words. He lowered his head in shame and apologized to me, "I am sorry, Jace. I was not aware of it all. It was all Celine and Clara's doing. Clara threatened to cut ties with Celine, and she made her do it. I was

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 58

    JACE'S POVAs I arrived at the Edwin's Clubhouse, I had a sinking feeling that everything was not right. My heart felt so heavy, and I felt like someone close to me was in danger.Celine… I thought about her as I had waited for Roy to call me to let me know where Celine was, but he hadn't called me yet.Unable to hide my panic, I stood at the front of the clubhouse and called Roy instead.Night had fallen, and darkness was gradually enveloping everywhere. I watched the happy lovers going into the clubhouse. Some young women gazed at me with desire and thought maybe I was single, but none of that mattered."Roy, have you found Celine?" I asked him as I broke out in a cold sweat."Boss, I am sorry to say this, but we lost track of Celine. The cab driver who took her took a turn, and before I could catch up with him, he had disappeared, and there's no trace of him," Roy told me, and I could hear the anxiety in his voice."Damn it, Roy! How did you allow Celine to go missing? Where was he
