Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 1 Let’s Get Married

is it?” “It’s me, Annalise!” Annalise announced, enunciating each syllable clearly. “Anna?!” Benjamin quickly pulled up his pants. Abigail, who was lying on the bed, pulled a quilt to cover herself, but she deliberately revealed her seductive shoulders. Annalise took out her phone and took two photos of them. “What are you doing, Anna?” When Benjamin saw her taking pictures, he tried to snatch the phone from her anxiously. Thud! Annalise kicked him. Her force was so great that he flew backward and fell onto the bed as Abigail screamed exaggeratedly. Annalise glared at him and warned, “Benjamin, we will go our own ways from now on! Remember that it is I who dumped you. Explain things accurately when you face the media, or else… I will not show you mercy.” Seeing as they were after the shares that her mother left for her, they would inevitably denigrate her in front of the media. Then people who didn’t know the truth would think it was reasonable for her uncle’s family to take the inheritance her mother had left for her. “Anna, how could you do this to Ben? You are so rude. I initially wanted to apologize to you, but since this just happened, I guess there is nothing I can say. You should see as well that Ben and I really love each other…” Abigail lifted her chin and looked at Annalise. Deep down, Abigail could hardly wait for Annalise to expose her to the public. That way, her marriage to the Quigley family would be a solid affair. Naturally, that would mean she would not need to fulfill her marriage to the eldest son of the Parks family from Jadeborough either. She had deliberately inquired about the information concerning the eldest son of the Parks family, Julian Parks. It turned out that he was an ugly man of fifty-two who was in a wheelchair. “What kind of person needs a wheelchair? You do not need it unless you’re a cripple!” she figured. To her, it did not matter that the Parks family was powerful and influential, as Julian was just a loser that no one favored. As far as she knew, the one whom the Parks family held in high regard was Julian’s half-brother, Alexander Parks, instead. There was no way she would want to be married to an old and ugly cripple. “Haha! You two better be bound to each other for life!” stated Annalise. She gave the adulterous couple another contemptuous look before keeping her phone and leaving. “Did they expect me to go for a marriage of convenience? In their dreams!” she scoffed internally. “Anna, wait a minute!” Benjamin quickly grabbed his shirt and ran after her. He reached out and grasped her hand. “Let go of me now. One, two-” Before Annalise could count to three, Benjamin had already let go of her hand. He had no idea why, but after being kicked by Annalise, he suddenly had a strange feeling and felt rather reluctant to let her go. Somehow, he felt Annalise was completely different today. She used to be very gentle and would smile whenever she saw him, calling him affectionately by his nickname, Benny. They even used to dream about their future together, and she had even told him the kind of wedding she would like. However, on this day, Annalise was cold and straightforward. Nonetheless, Benjamin found himself fatally attracted to her. Annalise walked quickly in the direction of the elevator. Benjamin ran after her uncontrollably and said, “Anna, Abigail and I were just messing around. Forgive me this time, and our marriage would still be valid.” He suddenly realized that he wanted to marry her more than Abigail. “After I marry her, I’ll just help her get back her shares in Moonlight Group. After all, her mother left it to her when she died. It’s rightfully hers,” Benjamin thought. “Our marriage would still be valid?” Annalise flashed him a mocking smile. It was the funniest joke she had ever heard in her life.“Yes, it would.” Benjamin made it sound as if he was doing her a favor. “Do you think you are worthy of me?” Annalise looked at him disdainfully. “You should know that I
