Chapter 68
Knowing that Finneas was still mad, Megan gently rubbed her swollen cheek and shed tears in a
bitter manner. Ever since the bridegroom gave her a p during the wedding, she was shamefully
known to be the most miserable bride among the rich. Therefore, sustaining her marriage became
her only way to protect her status and shush the critics at the same time. I must pull myself together
and make this work!
At the thought of that, Megan took out a small vial and took a pill out of it. When Finneas exited the
bathroom, she caringly gave him a ss of water. Feeling thirsty after a whole night of drinking, the
man took the ss and guzzled down the liquid in it.
After that, Finneas sat on the bed with the same gloomy and solemn expression on his face and
asked, “Answer me. Back when you told me Selena had an affair, did you n all that? You fooled
her into making out with a man whom she thought was me. Then, you fabricated a story and fed me
your lies about her unfaithful act, didn’t you?”
In fact, Finneas had smelled a rat the moment he heard Selena’s words during the wedding earlier
that day. When I was younger back then, I was blinded by Megan’s usible meek nature so much
that I believed her every word without question. It was onlyter that I realized it didn’t seem right to
me that Selena would have an affair. After all, apart from bedroom stuff she obeyed my wishes.
Therefore, it’s unimaginable that she’d sleep with another man behind my back!
Megan stared at Finneas in shock. “How could you suspect me, Finneas?!”
“Who else could it be besides you? Selena is a timid introvert who will never have an affair!”
“What you’ve seen all the time is nothing but her facade! In fact, she always flirted with boys when
she was younger. Then, when she was with you, she continued making dirty jokes with other men
behind your back. Open your eyes and see through her!” Megan yelled despite the guilt that was
haunting her deep down.
Meanwhile, Finneas soon felt thirsty, staring at Megan as his body began to grow warmer
increasingly. Noticing the change in the man’s expression, thedy immediately leaned closer in a
gentle manner before she was pinned down on the bed by Finneas.
As soon as the drug kicked in, both of them proceeded to share an intimate moment in bed. After
that, Finneas dozed off while Megany down beside him and caressed his cheeks. Nheless,
thedy soon heard Finneas murmur something that would leave her eyes widened in horror.
“Selena… Selena…”

In the meantime, Selena helped dry Juniper’s hair after bathing her, while thetter had her eyes
glued to her mother until she was carried into the bed. “Mommy, can you sleep with me tonight?”
Selena gazed at Juniper and rubbed her head. “Sure.” Then, she settled her work in hand and
buried herself underneath the little girl’s nket. Soon, Junipery down facing her mother and
asked, “Mommy, I know where I’m from.”
Selena was stunned by the little girl’s response. In fact, the reason behind what she did earlier that
day was to let Juniper know about her origin. Worried that mere words would arouse her daughter’s
suspicion, she decided to speak up during the wedding in order to implicitly convey her message to
Juniper.
“You don’t know who my daddy is, do you?” Juniper’s gaze seemed so pure and innocent, as she
was not affected by the matter in any way at all. Instead, she was more worried about her own
mother.
Selena reacted with a nod. “You’re right. I don’t know who your daddy is, but I used to think that
Finneas was your father until I subsequently found out I was wrong. So, I can’t answer your
question for the time being, and I’m sorry about that, Juniper.”
