Alle Kapitel von Abandoned at Wedding, I Became His Aunt: Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 8

The airport was swarming with people. Zach Martin had a limited-edition bag in one hand and was pushing a suitcase with the other.Yvette, who had also become tanned after two years in Apania, was sitting on the suitcase, being pushed along by Zach.Two years in the sun had left them looking like they had spent the same time mining coal.Back then, Zach was fair, handsome, and in great shape. Otherwise, I would not have agreed to the arranged marriage. However, now…Good thing he was not my husband.I slid off my sunglasses and forced a polite smile.“Sorry, it’s been a while. You both look so different. I didn’t recognize you at first.”Yvette, as sharp-tongued as ever, sneered, “Don’t pretend! You came here just to pick up Zach, didn’t you? If I hadn’t dropped my phone and lost contact with everyone after going abroad, you would've tracked us down in Apania long ago!“I really don’t get what Zach sees in you. How could he want to marry someone with nothing but a pretty face

I laughed, but it was from anger.“Zach, I suggest you get your brain checked. If I’m not mistaken, Yvette’s 25 this year. She’s a few months older than me, right? One, I despise grown-ups who act like babies. Two, I hate sneaky women who take what’s not theirs. She’s both.”Triggered, Yvette’s tears started flowing immediately. “No matter how old I am, Zach dotes on me! You’re just jealous! You haven’t even married Zach yet. Why does an outsider get to take something from the Martin family? The shameless one here is you!”Yvette was a foster daughter of the Martin family. She had not changed her surname. Strictly speaking, she was still an outsider living in Martin's residence.Zach had once tried to make Yvette a proper heiress, but Alex had made it clear that it was impossible, so he had to give up. Naturally, he felt guilty toward her. When he saw Yvette look so wronged, he could not help but feel a little protective. He frowned and replied, “Unlike you, Yvette has no parents

Zach let out a bitter smile. It turned out it had all been there, right in front of him.The wedding ring on my left hand. The emerald pendant that was meant only for a Martin family’s daughter-in-law, and Sean’s delayed flight.I had not come to pick him up at all. I might not have even known he was returning to the country that day.Something flickered in Zach’s eyes, dark and unreadable. Then, facing the doorway, he dropped to his knees again.Sean still had not come home. Zach was still kneeling as punishment.…Dinner was just the two of us.Alex had always insisted on silence at the table. However, he broke his own rule tonight. He heaved a sigh and said, “Tina, you’ve been wronged. I raised Zach myself. His parents died young, so I spoiled him more than I should have. I never thought I’d raise him into someone who can’t tell right from wrong.”When Alex was younger, he had been ruthless and strict with his sons. However, after his eldest son and daughter-in-law died in a

When Zach woke up, his head was splitting with pain, and lying naked beside him was Yvette. With a shy look on her face, Yvette said with a soft voice, “Zach, I’m yours now.”The shock sobered him up instantly. He scrambled out of bed, pulled on his pants, fastened his belt, and said flatly,“Yvette, what happened last night was an accident. Forget it, and don’t say a word about it in front of her. Someone will bring you contraceptive pills later. The Martin family can’t afford a scandal like an illegitimate child.“I’ll compensate you financially, and I’ll help you find a good man in the future.”Yvette’s face turned deathly pale. She rushed up and hugged him tightly from behind. “Tina is already married. Why can’t you just focus on me instead? I love you!”Previously, Zach would have patiently comforted her. Today, all he felt was irritation. He pulled her hands away roughly. His tone was cold and impatient.“You've crossed the line. I've told you, I only ever see you as a sist
