All Chapters of The Choices We Made: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

From a distance, Sydney saw Samantha and Nathaniel enter. Her gaze lingered on Nathaniel's handsome face before drifting dismissively across Samantha. The curve of her smile deepened. "Thank you all for taking time from your busy schedules to attend my wedding with David," Sydney said into the microphone in a sweet voice. "There's another joyful announcement today. My grandmother, Finella, the chairwoman of McQueen Group, would like to speak." Every gaze shifted toward Finella at the main table. She wore a tailored dark red gown and appeared energetic. Her eyes concealed calculations no one else could read. With help from her attendants, she slowly rose and walked to the ceremony platform, where she accepted the microphone. "Friends and family, I'd like to use the happy occasion of my granddaughter Sydney's wedding to make an important announcement." Her voice was not loud, but it could be clearly heard in the entire venue. She continued, "The McQueen family has another grandso

Evan did not react in anger to Nathaniel's words. His tone remained as mild, as if he were speaking to a boy throwing a tantrum. "A name is only a label. Whether I'm called Evan or Victor, my respect and concern for Samantha are real. You don't need to treat me with such hostility, Nathaniel. We're brothers, after all." "That remains to be proven," Nathaniel replied coldly. The tension between them got worse. Samantha found it difficult to breathe as she was caught in the middle. She could sense Nathaniel's anger and the calculation behind Evan's smile, but she could not read any of it. Samantha used to trust Evan completely. She believed he was an honest and kind man. Now that he had appeared under this hidden identity, she could no longer tell how much of the man she knew had been genuine, and how much of it had simply been an act. She also remembered that Evan had created the online campaign surrounding Nathaniel's supposed affair with Katarina. His actions did fit someone

In the next second, Nathaniel grabbed Samantha's hand and pulled her into his arms. She tried to explain, but Evan spoke first. "Don't make things difficult for her. I was simply passing by, and we discussed a few work matters." His innocent interjection only made things worse for Samantha despite her wanting to explain. Nathaniel's gaze sharpened. He had just asked Samantha to avoid Evan, yet she was already having an intimate conversation with him. "Samantha..." Nathaniel began angrily. "We had no work to discuss!" Samantha said at once. "I came here to wait for you. Mr. Wind was passing by and I was just getting to leave. That's all." She wanted to leave no room for misunderstanding because she didn't want it to deepen. Evan smiled. "Are you afraid of your husband, Samantha? Does he hit you?" Nathaniel replied immediately, "I would never hit her, but you should also stop harassing her." The two men faced each other with open hostility. It was at this time when an

The billiards room fell silent for a moment. Channing walked to Evan and leaned close and whispered so no one else could hear. "If you hurt Samantha, I'll never forgive you." Evan's expression did not change. He even smiled as he carried his cue to the table. In his hands, the cue resembled a precision instrument. He calculated the angle and sent the ball he aimed for cleanly into the corner pocket. "That's a good question," Evan said mildly as he straightened. "But Mr. Lane, what right do you have to ask me this?" Channing's expression darkened. Evan moved calmly to the other side and leaned over a shot requiring three cushion escape to reach the center pocket. The cue ball rebounded from hitting the table, struck its target precisely, and sent it into the center pocket. Evan straightened and slowly wiped the cue. "As I understand it, you and Samantha divorced long ago. You're now Sydney's stepson. According to the family hierarchy, you should address Samantha as Aunt Sa

Hunter stared at Katarina in disbelief, searching her face for the slightest sign of a lie. He knew his sister too well. He recognized the look in her eyes when she was sincere. And she was telling the truth. "Katarina," Samantha said, her voice trembling even as she fought to remain composed, "you can't be carrying Nathan's child. It's impossible." The claim nearly made Samantha fall on her knees. She braced herself against the table to remain standing. Katarina's announcement shocked everyone else in the dining hall. Curious guests gathered, eager not to miss the spectacle. Many knew Samantha was Nathaniel's publicly recognized wife. Now, another woman was smugly claiming she carried the married man's child. How…shameless. However, they quickly recognized Katarina as the heiress who had recently been condemned online for obsessively pursuing him. Had Nathaniel really become involved with her? Had she really become pregnant with his child? Pain overwhelmed Samantha.
