Husband

“My wedding with Averie will be held as scheduled on the 17th, two months later. All my family and friends will attend. Everyone present today is considered my friend from the media industry. You’re invited to my wedding.” 

Holding his future wife, Carlos spoke in a rare soft tone and smiled more frequently than usual. 

Vera stared at the screen and glared at the couple through the media’s cameras. She frowned and mocked, “Family members? Carlos, does your deceased first wife count as part of your family?” 

Vera thought, ‘I will be there as long as this couple’s wedding is held as scheduled. I will play the mourning music at the scene to deliver the curse. I will do anything to upset the Monroe family! 

Carlos and Averie stood together and posted several intimate gestures. With that, Carlos impatiently pushed Averie away. 

He murmured inside, ‘It is just acting. I hate that Averie leans over and throws herself at me. She is like a boneless mollusk.‘ 

“Carlos, those reporters are taking photos.” 

Averie was indeed resilient. Despite being pushed away, she smiled and eagerly returned to Carlos. She clung tightly to his arm and rested her head on his shoulder. 

It was as if the two of them were really in love. 

Carlos glared at Averie in disgust and mocked, “Are you out of your mind?” 

“What?” Averie looked puzzled and asked, “What do you mean by saying that? Did I do anything?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Adam stood behind Carlos and heard the conversation. He almost lost control and laughed out thinking, ‘Carlos was saying he disliked Averie’s enthusiasm. He was also implying that Averie was too stupid to take the hints. I’m impressed by Averie. How can she keep throwing herself at Carlos even if he disdains her like that?‘ 

Averie may not have been particularly sharp, but she caught on to Carlos’s meaning by observing the reactions of those around her. She was instantly infuriated and tightened her grip around Carlos’s arm. 

She cried inside, ‘I’m not afraid of being a laughingstock. Whether I can marry Carlos is my only 

concern!‘ 

“All right, that’s it for today.” 

When Carlos just dismissed the reporters, a group of children about six or seven years old suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rushed onto the stage. 

Among the crowd were boys and girls from diverse races with different skin colors. One with curly. hair was obviously from Firene.

O 

Averie was so frightened that she hid behind Carlos. She frowned and was about to scream, “Where did these little bastards come from?” 

However, before she could scream out, the kids pushed her aside. 

They surrounded Carlos and shouted. “Daddy! I finally found you, Daddy! Why didn’t you come and see me, Daddy?” 

“Do you still remember my mommy, Daddy? She works at Sultry Secrets. You once booked her every night for a month!” 

“Your mommy is so lame. My mommy is the descendant of a noble in Feskeau. She’s my daddy’s Feskean language teacher.” 

“All of you, go away. My mommy is the best. She gave birth to a pair of twins for Daddy. That’s me and my brother!” 

The children were shouting so loudly that Carlos did not even have a chance to speak. As a father, he found it hard to be harsh with a child as young as Neil. 

Everyone present was shocked by this scene. 

The media reporters were stunned and stared at the absurd scene on stage in disbelief. 

“Are those Mr. Monroe’s illegitimate children? So many? Is he trying to form a children’s football 

team? 

The media reporters were so attracted by the breaking news that they forgot to turn off their cameras. Adam shouted angrily, “What are you guys waiting for? Shut off the cameras!” 

With that, the reporters hurriedly turned off the cameras. Unfortunately, it was a live report, and James’s people had screenshotted that scene. 

James planned to turn those precious images into various short videos. He would also ask his people to write a long article about it to spread the message that Carlos had many illegitimate children. 

The Monroe Group’s stock price would drop sharply once such a scandal was released,
