The Billionaire's Broken Bride,Rescued by Her StepbrothersChapter 1
The day we were supposed to register our marriage, my fiancé Kenneth Matthews showed up late. Again.
There was a woman in the passenger seat.
He glanced at me standing in the wind, shivering, and let out a quiet laugh.
"The registration office is closed? Guess we can't get that marriage certificate after all."
"This little thing's so clingy. She won't go to a single prenatal checkup unless I'm there. Wears me right down." Kenneth looked at her with a smile dripping with affection. "Betty Simmons, how about we wait until after she has the baby, and then we'll register?"
"She's been so good about it, really. Never once tried to take your place."
"You've waited this long already. What's another year or so?"
The numbered ticket in my palm was crushed into a tight ball.
I turned and dropped it in the trash, then lifted my gaze to her flat little stomach.
"Fine."
My mother had remarried into a wealthy family. There were two stepbrothers waiting to meet me there.
——
The truth was, I'd known about Kenneth's affair since the beginning of the year.
One of the Syndicate's guys tipped me off.
