Chapter 85
The wedding was canceled.
“What’s going on?”
“Do you know that the guests invited today are
all well known people in the circle? You are deliberately embarrassing us!”
The wedding was full of joy at first but was canceled midway. The Nelson and Reed families were completely unaware of it, and the elders were furious. To prevent more people from knowing about this family scandal, they asked the guests to leave and then hurried back to Nelson Villa
Adrian Nelson, Kevin’s father, raised his hand and slapped Kevin’s face hard.
“You unfilial son! Do you know what things you have done?”
drian was so angry that he yelled at Kevin. He taught at a university and had a gentle temper. He had never been so angry.
“Well, let’s talk about it.” Stella cared about her son and immediately stepped forward to protect him. Her face was full of anxiety.
“Kevin, what’s going on? How come this wedding was cancelled? if you have any troubles, just tell me now”
The living room of Nelson Villa was filled with their relatives and friends, including George and the people from the Reed family. The atmosphere was heavy, and all of them were waiting for an explanation.
Kevin was beaten hard by his father, and some blood stains oozed from the corners of his lips, but he ignored it.
He lowered his head and spoke in a cold and firm tone. “I will divorce her now!”
“What are you talking about?”
Courtney’s face darkened with anger, and she yelled in a high–pitched voice, “Kevin Nelson, do you think you can treat my sister like this? Just now, in front of so many people, you said the wedding was cancelled, and now, you dare to say you want to divorce her. Do you have any
conscience?”
“Kevin, why are you doing this to me?”
Claire had already stained her makeup and couldn’t help crying loudly.
She felt aggrieved and asked, “Have I done anything wrong to you? You canceled the wedding in public. Have you ever thought about how I feel? How will I see those people in the future?” As she spoke, she became more and more excited.
“You still miss Stephanie, right?”
Claire shouted angrily, with tears moistening her eye shadow. Her eyes were full of resentment. She glared at Stephanie and asked Kevin, “She is already your cousin’s wife. How can you miss her?”
For a moment, everyone looked towards Stephanie.
Even George frowned and looked at Stephanle beside him. Stephanie’s expression was tense and complicated, and she couldn’t figure out the situation.
“Canceling the wedding has nothing to do with her, Claire. Don’t blame Stephanie for everything!” Kevin scolded Claire with a dark face.
“You know why I called off the wedding”

Kevin stared at her with a trace of hatred in his eyes. He clenched his teeth and roared angrily, “Claire, tell me where my daughter came
from?”
Claire’s crying face froze instantly,
“What’s wrong with Joyce?” Stella hugged her granddaughter and asked Kevin anxiously.
Everyone was confused and had no idea what was going on. No one knew why Kevin had canceled the wedding and now mentioned the
daughter.
“Kevin, is there any misunderstanding?” a relative of the Nelson family asked slowly.
Kevin bit his lip tightly, and his face was gloomy. He turned around and walked towards the door. He didn’t want to stay there any longer or explain anymore.
“Kevin!”
Claire watched him leave and immediately became anxious, so she rushed forward and hugged him.
“Kevin, don’t poll am your wife. I am your wife! Please don’t go!”
Tears were streaming down her face, and she was speaking incoherently. Her tone sounded like pleading.
Everyone present looked at Claire with sympathy. George was most annoyed by these trivial matters in a romantic relationship. He had always been strict with his descendants. Even if Kevin was his grandson, it made him very angry-
George darkened his face and commanded in a hoarse voice, “Explain it clearly!”
“Kevin, no matter what happened, Claire has been with you for so long. You can’t be so ungrateful.”
“I’m Claire’s sister, If you treat her like this, you don’t take the Reed family seriously!”
Il the people
le were condemning and blaming Kevin, but he sneered and asked coldly, “Are these all my fault?”
All
He turned to look at Claire, who was holding him tightly behind him, raised his voice, and shouted angrily, “Claire, whose fault do you think it
is today?”
Saying that, Kevin pushed Claire away in disgust, showing no mercy in his actions.
“Claire, I’ve known everything.” He stared at her lying on the floor and almost wanted to slap her face.
“I’ve known everything! Everything!”
Kevin’s eyes turned red, and he yelled in a hoarse voice as if he was severely irritated.
Everyone else in the living room was shocked by his sudden anger and out–of–control emotions. All of them looked at each other in confusion
and were curious about the truth.
Claire was lying on the cold marble floor. She grabbed Kevin’s legs, kept crying, and murmured, “I love you, Kevin. About Joyce, it’s just because I love you. I Love you.
She cried so hard that her lips trembled, and she kept repeating the three words “I love you” as if she wanted to make up for the mistakes she had made.
“Love me?”
Chapter 85
Kevin laughed out loud, and his laughter was full of ridicule and self–defeating anger. “Claire, how do you dare to say you love me? Should I believe you?
“Six years ago, I followed my mother’s arrangement to pursue Stephanie. At that time, I broke up with you. However, a month later, as I was in a bad mood after breaking up with you, I went to a bar and drank so much that I became unconscious. Later, a married woman said that slept with her. Her husband immediately called the police, and I was imprisoned.
“knew clearly that I was drunk, but I didn’t touch that woman. But my company had just gone public at the time, so I didn’t want anyone else to know it. I thought that after the police’s investigation, I could just leave. But you know what? The policeman said my semen was found on both the woman’s body and on the bed, so I was charged with rape.”
Hearing what he said, all the people of the Nelson family changed their expressions in surprise. No one in their family knew that such a big thing had happened.
Kevin looked at Gary with a sneer, “I really need to thank Gary for his help back then.”
That year, he was arrested and taken to the police station in Caelorium, but the Nelson family was much more influential in Havencrest. Kevin knew that the power of the Nelson family could not save him, and it was obvious that someone was framing him for this matter. However, he had no way out since all the evidence was conclusive.
Stephanie was sitting next to George. Suddenly, she remembered something and raised his eyebrows to look at Claire, who was still lying on
the floor.
“Claire, you said you went to find Gary and begged him to help me secretly so that I could be released. Is that right? Is that really the case?”
Kevin threw Claire’s hands away in disgust. At this moment, he felt that the woman at his feet was so wicked.
“Everything you told me is false!”
Kevin stared at Claire fiercely. She became anxious and wanted to refute, but she couldn’t think of an
excuse.
“Afterwards, you told Stephanie about my imprisonment. It was Stephanie who went to beg her father and used her mother’s inheritance as a condition, so Gary agreed to use his connections to release me secretly. You’ve been reminding me of this incident intentionally so that I can never forget you as the one who has saved me.
“But six years later, you brought my daughter back, and you even lied about the child! Claire, do you think whether I should believe you love me? Can I still believe you? Even the child was not born to you!”
To everyone’s surprise, Joyce was not born to Claire.
y semen. It was you who found that “You had already planned it when you were dating me. When we were intimate, you deliberately left my couple and left the evidence of my semen, and it was also you who went to the black market and found someone to do surrogacy.
“Claire, you think that you can marry into the Nelson family after you have a child. You also got help from Dominick behind the scenes. You and Dominick cooperated to plot against me, right?” Kevin yelled hysterically,
Stephanie was stunned to hear Dominick’s name.
George was holding a cane in his right hand, and his face became gloomy.
Kevin’s eyes were red, and he turned to Stephanie, glaring fiercely at her belly. She was pregnant with Dominick’s child, and she was originally his wife.
Kevin didn’t expect that Dominick was so cunning and cruel that he had planned it six years ago.

“Absurd! Absolutely ridiculous!”
George banged the floor hard with his cane and shouted, “Now, ask that bastard to come back immediately!”
