Love’s Cunning Ruse ( Mr.Kieran And Julie )

Chapter 140

Kieran explained to Julie, “Bertha knew from the start that my brother was not dead. The child in her belly wasn’t conceived through artificial insemination either. These were all lies she made up. And I totally believed her words.”

Julie picked up on what he was saying, “So, to protect your brother’s only offspring, you agreed to Bertha’s request, claiming the child in her belly as your own? That’s why you lied to me?”

“I lied to you, but not because Bertha lied to me,” Kieran simply replied.

But Julie was even more confused, her mind filled with questions, “Then why would you agree to her?”

In fact, during the time Julie was pregnant, she felt extremely happy. Despite Bertha’s interference in her relationship with Kieran, Kieran spent most of his time and energy on her and their child.

Although Kieran acknowledged that the child in Bertha’s belly was his, during Bertha’s pregnancy, he never seemed to care for Bertha as much as he did for Julie. Instead, he would always be home on time after work, shopping for baby supplies with Julie. Every night, no matter how tired he was, he’d tell simple bedtime stories to the baby in her belly.

Bertha, just as she promised Julie, quietly awaited the birth of her child, as if she didn’t exist. She never directly intervened in Julie and Kieran’s marital life.

Back then, Julie thought Kieran was treating her so well out of guilt for his betrayal. But now she understood that there was only a contractual relationship between him and Bertha.

But she still couldn’t understand Bertha’s motives.

Kieran told Julie, “Just a few days before you gave birth prematurely, she told me Lucian was alive. The child in Bertha’s belly wasn’t conceived through artificial insemination, but through a relationship between Lucian and Bertha.”

Five years ago, Julie’s due date was supposed to be in mid-August, while Bertha’s child was a few weeks older than Julie’s, so her due date was in early July.

In mid-June of that year, the Department of Transportation announced that they had found the wreckage of the plane Lucian was on. Experts speculated from the analysis of the wreckage that the plane might have experienced a ‘sudden drop’ before crashing, falling from 35,000 feet at a rate of 20,000 feet per minute.

According to the condition of the wreckage, the plane crashed directly into the sea at high speed, with no emergency landing or sliding. That is to say, the pilot might have done this on purpose. The plane crash caused a great deal of attention. The National Security Agency got involved in the investigation, not only because there were important agents on the plane, but also because the cause and process of the plane crash were very mysterious.

Kieran couldn’t accept that Lucian was dead just like that. Even though he knew the chances were slim, he still had Payne turn on the facial recognition system on surveillance cameras worldwide, in an attempt to find traces of Lucian.

Payne thought this move was just to comfort Kieran, but on the third day after the wreckage was found, he found a man who looked extremely similar to Lucian on the facial recognition system.

Payne immediately told Kieran, who then contacted Hayden.
