The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 710
The woman was known as Whitney Mellor, a citizen of Tayhaven.
Where even is that place? Is Tayhaven one of the third-world countries? We haven’t even heard of it.
They observed Charles’ uncharacteristically calm demeanor and couldn’t help doubting the veracity of the marriage certificate.
“Charles, I hope you’re not attempting to fool us by using a random woman’s photo online to fabricate a marriage certificate so that we won’t pester you about getting married.”
Charles leisurely sipped his coffee. “The marriage certificate is in my uncle’s possession. He can verify the authenticity of it anytime. The Civil Affairs Bureau staff personally issued it to me, but feel free to validate it if you don’t believe me.”
“Well… “
His uncles were unsure how to react. He sounds confident. Is he really married?
“Charles, please understand that our inquiries aren’t meant to doubt you. We simply want to ensure that this lady is suitable for you. Could you share some details about her family background? Does she hold a degree? Where does she reside, and how many family members does she have? Also, what are her parents’ occupations? Lastly, have you both discussed any plans for the wedding?”
Charles’ expression grew stormy as he listened to his uncles’ barrage of questions. He retorted, “I don’t know her well enough either. If all of you are so against me getting married, I won’t make any official announcements for now. Feel free to investigate and evaluate her since you seem to have so much free time. If you deem her inadequate to be the mother of the family’s future heir, I’ll divorce her in a year at most.”
The conference room sank into a protracted silence.
Charles’ relatives were all flabbergasted. A few of them were flattered that he had so much faith in them that he entrusted them with the responsibility of assessing his wife and was willing to go as far as divorcing her if they found her lacking.
“Charles, are you serious? Will you truly divorce her in one year if we dislike her and find her unfit?”
“When have I ever lied to you guys?” Charles’ curled his lips slightly.
“All right then. Charles, you’re a good lad. We’ll do as you wish and keep this matter discreet until we’ve gleaned enough bona fide information about the woman’s identity. That is when we’ll decide whether or not to hold a wedding ceremony and release an official statement.”
Charles got to his feet and adjusted his suit cuffs. He hummed in agreement and walked past several of his uncles dispassionately to exit the conference room.
He even left the marriage certificate behind on the table.
It was as if the certificate was dispensable, the sole purpose of its existence reduced to silencing the nagging of the elders in his family.
Charles’ hands were in his pockets as he strode down the corridor. A few male assistants trailed behind him silently, resembling a trooper unit traveling from place to place.
Ignatius emerged abruptly from the lounge around the corner. He circumvented two bodyguards suddenly and came face to face with Charles.
“Mr. Newton, you look like you’ve just finished work. There are some urgent matters I’d like to discuss with you if possible.”
Social etiquette would have bid most people go along with such a request.
