My Stepsister Stole My Groom のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

LUNETHI helped Lucy settle down and told her that she could begin spreading the rumours as soon as she felt comfortable. She could lie that she overheard me on the phone sharing my plans with an accomplice. I knew that Maljore would be unable to resist such juicy treats, and once she swoops in, I would have a chance to fire Jane. People like Maljore only care for themselves. She is not going to try and save her; she might even carry all the blame in the end, but that is the start to weed out all of the hold that she had over Drexon and the kids."You are back from work?" I ask as I step into the room to see Drexon sitting on the bed. He looked at me, and a smile drew across his face. "You are early," I pick on each word as I slowly walk towards him with my hands securely tucked behind me."I am," he says, standing up and walking towards me, meeting me halfway and closing the distance between us with a hug. "How I missed you," he murmured as he held me tightly."Did something happen?"

LUNETHJane is being too quiet; maybe she and Maljoe are trying to fact-check the story, or Lucy has not done a good job. I know the story is spreading like wildfire because the staff keep giving me weird glances all around the house, and they whisper when they think I'm not watching. It's been three days now, and I did not think it would go on longer than this. I do not want the kids to hear it, and if Jane does not make a move by tomorrow, I will have to shut it down and let Lucy go. I do not want the kids to get the wrong idea of Drexon.What if they think he is a cheater who can't control his urges, and they think I am a woman who wants him only for his money? It would not help my case with Zayden."Are you sure you are up for this dinner?" Drexon asked me, appearing from the closet, looking dashing in the ash grey suit he had thrown on. He looked like he did not put in any effort but got the maximum results all the time. Who would have thought I'd fall in love with an older man?"

DREXONLuneth is sleeping peacefully on the couch with Zayden resting on her gently. She had tried her best to make sure that Zayden did not take the blame for what had happened. I asked the head of staff at the mansion to look into things, and Jane was nowhere to be found as well. The CCTV camera last showed her leaving the gates, and now the police are on a manhunt for her.She had been working with Aria for years now, so I would never think she would do anything to hurt the girl. How did she get to work for Maljore, and was this Maljore's doing?I can't help seeing Aria like this. Even if Maljore was coming after me, wasn't it a bit too much for her to do it to my wife and now my daughter? The worst of it all was that I wouldn't be able to pin any of this on her. The man who had tried to kill Luneth kept on insisting that he was working alone, and now Jane was nowhere to be found.I am so tempted to call Maljore and confront her, but without any evidence, I know she would slip from

LUNETH"An offer for me?" Drexon's voice was tight, and it was scaring me. If Tema had provided a good enough solution to whatever was happening, would we be at her mercy now? Would she make Drexon do whatever she wanted him to do? Was this all my fault? Would none of this have happened if I did not try to catch Jane or maybe try to come into Drexon's life?I feel his gentle hands on mine, and when I look at him, it's as if he is telling me without words that I shouldn't be worried about things like that. I gulp and nod, and he echoes his question again for Tema to hear."What is it?""Oh, I know what is happening to you right now. The entire family knows, and I think I can get you out of there if you want my help." She sounded smug. Maybe she really did have the power to get us out of this mess."You don't do me favours, Tema." Drexon's voice remained tight, which was quite contrary to the gentle expression on his face."I never did you... But all that is about to change," she says. S

DREXONLuneth stays with Aria in the hospital while Zayden shuffles from school to the hospital to check on his sister. While we try to act as if nothing is wrong, the media finds out in no time. They were all trying to create theories to explain the sudden food poisoning. I allowed them to draw castles in the sky for a while, but when they tried to attack Luneth, saying this happened because she was not supposed to be a mom yet, I could not sit on my hands just so easily. I made sure that Marcus took them down and filed a lawsuit against them. It happened a few times, and nobody mentioned any theory regarding Luneth again."I might be late tonight," I say over the phone, and Luneth sighs."I miss you, and so does Aria," she says, and I want us more than ever to be a normal family. I hated how high-stakes everything was, but this was the life we had to live."I have to see Tema today. I had delayed, but now I have no choice but to go in.""I understand, but please be safe; remember wha
