The Wedding He Skipped Became My Ticket To An Empire Chapter 06
Ethan sent many messages None were answered. He ran his hands through his hair in frustration He knew how close I was to my grandmother Because of his mistake, my grandmother had died There was no way I would forgive him easily Suddenly, something the doctor said clicked. The patient saw her granddaughter being attacked as a mistress online Sophia was her only granddaughter.
Frowning, Ethan was about to ask a friend to look into it when Chloe’s name popped up on his screen. He answered.
“Ethan,” Chloe’s panicked voice came through. “I’m being sued by the Moreau family’s lawyers.”
“What?” Ethan stood up. “The Moreau family? In the city?”
“Yes. They’re suing me for defamation and damaging the reputation of their eldest daughter. My stepmother
already tore into me. But I don’t even know their eldest daughter. What do I do?”
Ethan’s heart skipped a beat. A crazy thought flashed through his mind.
Could Sophia really be the Moreau family’s eldest daughter?
How was that possible? Wasn’t she just a bastard child?
He had been with me for years and never once seen the Moreau family reach out to me. And ten years ago,
my mother was still working as a waitress at banquets.
If Arthur Moreau cared about me even a little, we never would have ended up in such a poor state.
When Ethan first learned I was an illegitimate child of the Moreaus, he had been surprised.
In their circle, no matter how low the status of a mistress or her children, they were never left to struggle like that. Not to mention the Moreaus, who were on a higher level than his own family.
So everyone assumed my mother had used dishonest means to get close to Arthur, but since she wasn’t liked, the legitimate Mrs. Moreau had crushed her.
Marrying me had been a risk for Ethan.
Then a message from Gregory popped up.
[Did you do something to upset the Cross family?]
Ethan was confused. He was just a second-generation heir living off a family allowance. He wasn’t important enough to offend the Cross family.
[I found out through connections. The Moreau family’s eldest daughter is Sophia, the one you were so insistent on marrying.]
[What happened between you two? Didn’t you have a wedding? Why did she marry Julian Cross?]
The Holloway family had never approved of his marriage to me. They allowed the wedding ceremony to happen, but they gave him a direct order no marriage license Ethan’s throat tightened Sophia had been telling the truth all along Gregory’s call came through immediately The company’s major projects are being snatched away. The Moreau and Cross families are tearing apart our market share Everyone is scrambling because of you.”
“Do whatever it takes to apologize to Sophia and get her to call off the attack.”
Ethan’s mouth went dry. He couldn’t even reach me anymore.
In one day, our positions had completely reversed.
