Married As His Contractual Wife, Now He Spoils Me Silly! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 161 - チャプター 170

AVERY WINTERS Although I was surprised by Bernard's reaction, I wasn’t completely caught off guard.He already knew the truth about Hazel now. He had seen through every one of her lies and promised me that she would pay for everything she had done— especially for taking away our child.“Ben, how can you ask if she’s okay when I’m the one who got hurt?” Hazel complained, her voice filled with frustration.“Why wouldn’t he ask about Avery?” Harper snapped immediately. “She’s his wife, not you!”A soft smile tugged at my lips as I gently shook my head.Honestly, I barely even needed to speak anymore. I have people around me who were more than willing to fight for me.“You—”Hazel was about to lash out again, but Bernard cut her off coldly.“Get out, Hazel.” His voice was icily cold as he said that.Sharp enough to make the entire room fall silent for a second.“But Bernard,” she protested immediately, “I only came to give Avery a gift, and Harper ruined it!”She pointed accusingly at Ha

AVERY WINTERS After managing to calm Bernard down a little, I gently pulled away from him and carefully guided him toward the couch so he could sit down properly.“Ben, I know you are extremely angry right now,” I said softly, trying my best to soothe him, “but you really need to calm yourself down.”Unfortunately, my words did not help at all. And instead, he seemed even more irritated by them.He immediately turned to look at me, anger blazing fiercely in his eyes. Even though deep down, I knew very well that those angry eyes were not directed at me, the intensity behind them still made my chest tighten painfully.“What are you saying, Avery?” he asked in a furious tone. “How exactly do you expect me to calm down after finding out that the child I believed was mine all this time isn’t mine at all? Tell me, how am I supposed to deal with that?”His voice carried nothing but rage, betrayal, and pain.“I know,” I replied gently, reaching for his hand again. “And trust me, I truly unde

AVERY WINTERS “As everyone gathered here already knows…” Bernard began slowly, his cold gaze sweeping across the faces of the people seated and standing inside the hall, “I invited all of you here tonight because there is something extremely important I need to announce.”The entire hall instantly fell into complete silence.No one dared to make a sound.“It concerns Hazel,” he added finally, turning his gaze directly toward where she was seated.The moment everyone’s attention shifted toward her, a bright smile immediately appeared on her face.Of course.She truly believed this gathering was meant to honor her.Without hesitation, she gracefully rose from her seat, smoothing down her dress proudly before bowing slightly toward the crowd with that same fake innocent smile still plastered perfectly across her face.If only she knew what was about to happen next.The woman sitting there proudly, believing she had finally achieved nothing but victory, had no idea that she had already d

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 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
