Chapter 105 One Of A Kind
Never had Ethan expected to hear this shocking information today. As he processed everything, his
teeth clenched and his face sunken slightly.
The fact that J only married him in exchange for money made him feel annoyed and
heartbroken.
But on second thought, he remembered that he also only agreed to the marriage because of his
mother''sst wish. He wasn''t any different from J. Hence, he reasoned it would be unfair to
judge her.
Although Ethan put his emotions on a lockdown in order to stayposed, his mind was on a
rollercoaster.
''Why did J suddenly let the cat out of the bag? Does she want to divorce me? Oh my God, I
thought she had feelings for me!''
"Why are you telling me this all of a sudden?" Ethan''s jaw rose slightly and his eyes were filled with
trepidation.
J lowered her long eyshes and replied calmly, "It''s because the Lind family have refused to
keep their end of the bargain. I have asked them severally to pay me the money as promised, but
they refused. Today, they even orchestrated for the liver that was donated for Hannah to be given to
someone else. I had no choice but to open up."
With clear eyes, she looked up at him and continued sincerely, "I''m sorry for deceiving you all along.
If you resent me because of this, you can divorce me."
"Divorce?" Ethan muttered and scoffed.
Getting a divorce was easier said than done. Besides, he didn''t want that.
"Do you think I will be interested in a bitch like Jocelyn?" Ethan stared at her with an inexplicable
glint in his eyes for a while before walking up to her. He looked into her eyes and said, "J, you
seem to know very little about me. Just so you know. No woman can bepared to you. Besides,
don''t you know you are the only woman I want?"
J''s cheeks and ears turned red instantly. She fiddled with her fingers and stared at the floor.
Jocelyn, who had been standing on the staircase was livid when she heard Ethan''sst statement.
With her face burning with fury, she shouted angrily, "Why? How dare you say that? What makes
this bitch better than me? Ethan, I used to think you were a man with good taste, but I was wrong.
You are blind and stupid!"
Only a few moments ago, Jocelyn had thought that Ethan would divorce J and ask for her hand
in marriage.
She wasn''t going to ept his proposal, but she just wanted to hurt J and reiterate that she
was better than her in all ramifications.
Ethan paid no heed to the woman who was shouting at him. He shot Bernie and Fiona a cold re
and uttered, "Why bother? The substitute marriage was pointless. You should have just told me
from the onset that you switched your daughters. I never had an interest in Jocelyn in the first ce.
She has a bad reputation, an ugly face, and a terrible character. No man in his right mind would
want to have anything to do with her, let alone marry her. J is ten thousand times better than
her."
Bernie and Fiona had been afraid that Ethan would re up at them once he found out that his bride
had been substituted. Much to their surprise, he was actually happy with the arrangement because
he harbored inveterate hatred for Jocelyn. This annoyed them to the bones.
Several wrinkles appeared at the corners of Fiona''s eyes as she sneered. In a mean tone, she
retorted, "Watch your mouth, Ethan. Don''t be so arrogant because you are just the illegitimate son
of the Lester family. As far as I''m concerned, you are nothing but an unpresentable bastard. How
dare you speak illof my daughter in my presence?" "Spare me that bull crap! I see where Jocelyn
gets all her bad attributes from. She''s your carbon copy. The three of you are a family of vile
humans!" Ethan sneered at them.

Afterward, he turned to look at J who was still lowering her head timidly. He lifted her head and
said affectionately, "You are one of a kind. How did you manage to put up with them for so long?"
Despite Ethan''s shunning words, Fiona still stood up for her daughter. "You bastard, you must
apologize to my daughter, or you won''t be able to leave here today!"
"Humph! Fine, I''ll apologize!" A murderous expression appeared on Ethan''s face at this moment. He
suddenly picked up a wine bottle, holding it by its neck. He then smashed it on the table. The red
wine spilled on the floor and dyed the carpet. The remaining half of the bottle in his hand now had
extremely sharp tips.
"No! Mom! He wants to stab us. Don''t let him get here!" Jocelyn was so scared that her face turned
pale. As quick as a sh, she ran into her room and mmed the door shut.
Fear also filled Fiona as she stared at the bottle and the murderous look on Ethan''s face. She
staggered backward as her heart began to pound against her chest.
''Oh my God! J and Ethan are both crazy!''
Ethan took two steps forward. His ck eyes were void of any emotions. It was as if they led to a
bottomless abyss.
"Please calm down, Ethan. Fiona, stop arguing with him. You should know that we are to me for
this. We promised the Lester family to give out Jocelyn''s hand in marriage to their son many years
ago. But we didn''t keep to our promise. He has every right to be angry now!" Bernie scolded his
wife in a bid to show that he was reasonable and wanted peace. He was only trying to save their
lives.
Being an illegitimate child didn''t change the fact that Ethan still had a powerful family behind him.
The Lesters were so powerful that a scandal would never erupt about them. Even if Ethan killed
them all tonight, the truth would be buried easily by the Lesters and no one would know what
happened forever.
Seeing that Bernie was being fairly reasonable, Ethan threw the broken bottle aside and casually
wiped his fingers with tissue. He nced at the scared couple and said, "I can let go of you for
deceiving me. You unknowingly did me a favor. I''m d that J became my wife. However, you
owe her money, so you must pay her."
He threw the tissue on the floor, held J''s hand, and left.
