The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 729

Whitney unconsciously tightened her grip around his neck as her cheeks blushed.

She felt a sense of joy as he naturally referred to her as his wife.

The experience was both real and dreamy.

Manuel was the first to snap out of his daze among the three people. “That’s wonderful! Congratulations, Mr. Newton! Congratulations, Whit—Wait, that’s not it. I meant Ms. Mel—Mrs. Newton!”

Haisley glared at Whitney, who was in Charles’ embrace. Her heart clenched from intense envy, and her mind went blank from anger.

In her eyes, Whitney was no better than her. In fact, Whitney’s educational background was worse than hers. The former’s only redeeming qualities were probably her beauty and good figure.

Yet, Charles chose to marry Whitney.

Before long, Haisley noticed something was off. “I don’t believe it! If that’s really the case, why didn’t she say so when I asked her before this? Even she herself claimed she was your personal maid.”

Charles explained, “During the first two days of our marriage, I upset her, so she was messing with me. It’s how we spice up our marriage. Do you think you have a say in this?”

Haisley couldn’t find a suitable retort to that.

Laura’s cries grew louder as a wave of despair and remorse engulfed her. “If only I had known that Whitney was Mrs. Newton, I would have never singled her out with Haisley. I’ve learned from my mistake!”

Charles was tired of listening to their noisy complaints. He carried Whitney into the villa and said, “Manuel, punish them with the maximum penalty according to the contract. Plus, order them to pack up their things and leave the Newton residence tonight. I don’t want to see them again after this.”

“Yes, sir. Don’t worry.”

Charles left while carrying Whitney in his arms without sparing another backward glance at both sobbing women.

Whitney quietly nestled in his embrace. Occasionally, she would lift her head to peek at him. It feels great to be protected by him! How wonderful it’ll be if he continues to be nice like this!
