The Stranger I Met On The Altar Chapter 93
ELIZABETH’S POV“Are you at least remorseful about all you've done?” I asked my mum.She smiled. “Not at all, honey. But I do have a few regrets though”“What regrets?”“I shouldn't have married your dad and I shouldn't have had you. But most importantly, I should never have let Charles marry that wench”My chest tightened so hard. This was why she never treated me with warmth, because she regarded me as some sort of mistake. It hurt, but it didn't surprise me much.“What…” my voice croaked as the tears were welling up. I didn't bother fighting it. I just let it drop. “What you did, could have ruined Dad. It could have ruined dad if truly the company had collapsed and the merger didn't happen”She smirked. “The merger is just an unfortunate incident I should have prevented”“Why are you so heartless?”“Heartless?” she laughed dryly. “Betty, you don't half the shit I've been through or the things I had to lose to get here. So yeah, feel free to call me heartless, I accept the title wit

When Bruce proposed, of course Alexis was going to turn it down. She told Bruce that things were a bit complicated and she didn't want to get married.When Charles heard this, he was furious and called her stupid, saying that getting married to Bruce was the smartest and quickest way to get what they wanted.“This is such a good turn of events. Why didn't I even think of that?” Charles said. Then he snorted. “Typical Bruce, always digging his pit with his own hands. Always has been stupid”“But… but what about us?” Alexis asked, almost teary-eyed.“Nothing is going to happen to us, sweetie. Trust me. You will always be the only woman I have ever loved. But you have to marry Bruce. You will be my planted spy. Feed me everything I will need to destroy him. And when my own marriage ends, you will divorce him and we will finally be together” Charles assured.And so she went back to Bruce and told him she was just overwhelmed as at the time he proposed but after she did some thinking, she

ELIZABETH’S POVMy destination today was clear as day - my father’s office.So I picked up the first pair of jeans and the top closest to my reach and put them on.I climbed down the staircase with a heavy heart, knowing that Aaron possibly wasn’t back home yet.Last night, after he stormed out of my room, I stood rooted for a few minutes, still trying to process everything going on and decide what to do. Then I decided that the best first thing to do at the moment was to match after Aaron and have a conversation.I needed to let him know that whatever was happening between our parents didn’t have to change us, we were married, our union was legal, theirs were forbidden. And since I was at a crossroad at the moment, we could both decide what to do and how best to handle the situation and get Charles and Alexis to quit their affair.But when I went after him, his room was empty.I ran downstairs, barefoot hoping to find him around, maybe in the bar, drinking but he wasn’t there.Luckil

“W-what?” I stammered just looking at the pictures. I raised my head and looked at him. “What are these?”“What do they look like?” his voice was cold, body stiff, jaw clenched.“I… i” Oh God! Why tonight? Why did he have to find out tonight?“I asked a question,” he said. “Did you know about this?”Do I lie? Do I tell the truth? What would be the best possible way out of this? Elizabeth, fucking think fast!His gaze was fixated on me, not blinking momentarily as he waited for my answer.“I just found out about it tonight”Really Elizabeth? Was this the best you could come up with? I mentally palmed myself.But I couldn't lie. There was no point. Aaron knows.“Let's say I believe you. Were you eventually going to tell me or were you going to keep it to yourself?” he asked.“I… yes” I stuttered.“When?”“In the… morning?”He looked at me. Doubt was evident in his eyes.“So you knew that my father was having an affair with your mum and you chose to just say nothing? Was this your famil

I froze where I stood, my heart beating even faster than now.My pulse was pounding so hard it almost drained everything out.Everything came flashing back, including the conversation I had with my dad at the merger gala about some private information from Knight Corp being leaked, which was top secret only someone from the inside could get.I had my suspicions that it was Charles Vanderbilt. But Dad had told me that even he had no access to the information as it was classified.It was… mum.It had been mum all along. Leaking out secrets to Charles Vanderbilt. But… why?“Why mum?” My lips quivered as I spoke, the tears threatening to fall.“Why what?” my mum asked with scorn. “Why did you have to betray Dad this way? It wasn't enough that you had to go and have an affair with his long-time enemy, you also tried to sabotage our family company and legacy. Why? What did you stand to gain? What do you want?”“I want Charles,” she said icily. “Charles wants Knight Corp. I give him Knight
