Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Craig’s expression darkened as he continued, “Our father insisted on putting Charles under our mother’s name, but

she vehemently refused. She couldn’t accept that not only did he have an affair, but he had also brazenly brought

the mistress’ son back. Moreover, he demanded Charles be recognized in the family registry. In a fit of anger, she

left home alone while she was eight months pregnant. You were born while she was away. During her pregnancy,

she experienced anxiety and had some mental issues, and accidentally lost you. She blamed herself for many years

for this incident…”

Jennifer listened in shock, feeling as though her understanding of herself had been overturned. “Even if I resemble

your mother, there are no records of my parents or my birth in Fairlake Orphanage. What makes you so certain

that I am the child of the Newton family?”

“Indeed, you were too young when our mother lost you, and considering she went to the neighboring city at the

time, we don’t know what unforeseen circumstances occurred. You ended up being adopted by Fairlake Orphanage,

which is why, for all these years, I sent many people to the neighboring city but couldn’t find you.”

Craig walked to a nearby table and handed Jennifer a document.

“I wasn’t certain either, which is why I discreetly had someone monitor your filming crew and try to obtain your hair

for a DNA test with our mother.”

Jennifer received the DNA test report from Craig. When she saw the words “mother and daughter” written in the

bottom right corner of the document, tears rolled down her cheeks.

Craig looked at her and said gently, “This test report can’t be wrong. You truly are the precious daughter of the

Newton family and my younger sister, Elise Newton.” He placed his hands on her shoulder. “Starting tomorrow, will

you come back to live with the Newtons? I’ll have the room prepared, the one our mother used to stay in. During

the day, you can spend more time talking to her. For all the years we owed you, I’ll make it up to you double-fold.”

“I… Can you give me some time to digest this news?”

Jennifer had lived as an orphan for over twenty years until Craig suddenly told her that she was the daughter of the

Newton family. Not only did she have parents, but she also had a group of siblings.

The news was too shocking.

It left her bewildered and she was unable to accept it at once.

“Okay. I understand that you’re not used to it yet. We’ll take it slow and change your name first. If you don’t want to

come live with us, I can arrange accommodation for you outside. You can’t continue staying with Treyton.”

Jennifer abruptly lifted her head. “Why? Treyton and I are a genuine couple. In this day and age, isn’t it normal for

couples to live together?”

Craig patiently explained, “It may be considered normal for ordinary families, but we belong to the third prominent

family in Salinsburgh. Once I reveal your identity, we will have to follow the regulations of prominent families.”

Although Jennifer was unfamiliar with the regulations, with Gwendolyn and Cedrick as examples, she could vaguely

guess. “You mean we have to wait until our engagement is publicly announced?”

“Yes. If Treyton genuinely loves you, he will ask his father to visit us and arrange the engagement,” Craig replied.

“All right,” Jennifer relented.

As long as she could still be with Treyton, she didn’t mind the formalities.

Regarding the name change, she continued, “I’m used to being called Jennifer. Can we keep that? At most, I can

change my surname and be called Jennifer Newton.”

“As you wish.”

Craig rubbed her head affectionately and looked at her face intently.

Among his siblings, she resembled their mother the most when she was young.

Jennifer wasn’t accustomed to being touched by any man other than Treyton. However, since Craig was her second

brother, she suppressed her inner resistance.

She was still holding her mother’s photo tightly in her hand, and her eyes were gradually filled with joy.

“Does Mom live in this mansion? Can I go see her now? I’ve lived for over twenty years without experiencing the

feeling of having a mother. I really want to hug her,” Jennifer said, expressing her longing.

Craig’s hand that was caressing her head froze for a moment. He withdrew his gentle gaze and concealed a hint of

unease in his eyes.

Before he could answer, the bodyguard urgently knocked on the door of the ancestral hall.

“Mr. Craig, Mr. Treyton is here! He looks angry. It’s terrifying! His men are fighting with our bodyguards!”

“Oh no!” Jennifer exclaimed in shock and immediately turned and ran outside. The bodyguard quickly led the way,

while Craig calmly followed behind.

Outside the entrance of the Newton residence, chaos ensued.

In a fit of anger, Treyton had already injured several of the Newton family’s bodyguards.

“Stop! Stop fighting!”

Upon hearing Jennifer’s voice, Treyton immediately stopped his bodyguards.

Jennifer rushed to his side, checking if he was injured, while Treyton observed her.

When he saw her red eyes, he became furious. Seeing Craig approaching from afar, he went straight to him, ready

to throw a punch.

“Craig Newton! How dare you kidnap my woman! Don’t think I won’t offend you just because you’re the deputy

director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation! What have you done to Jennifer!”

Craig raised an eyebrow, a slight smile playing at the corner of his lips. He casually tucked his hands into his trouser

pockets without offering an explanation.

“He didn’t do anything to me! He didn’t mistreat me!” Jennifer quickly embraced Treyton, who was about to lose

control. “He’s my… second brother!”

Upon hearing Jennifer’s words, Treyton stopped his swinging fist. xo.com fast update

Craig glanced at the fist that was inches away and chuckled lightly. “Treyton, you were just a tiny bit away from

permanently offending your second brother-in-law!”

“Brother?”

Treyton looked at Jennifer in confusion.

“It’s quite sudden, and it’s a long story. I’ll explain everything to you when we get back!” Jennifer hurriedly assured.

After a long flight of over ten hours, Gwendolyn and the others finally returned to their homeland in the early

morning of the following day.

She stood on the stairs descending from the plane, gazing at the open landscape and breathing in the fresh air.

Cedrick walked behind her and scooped her up in his arms.

She felt weightless and immediately tightened her grip around his neck.

He lowered his head and lightly nuzzled her nose. “Did you have trouble adjusting to the food in Erihal? What would

you like to eat today? I’ll personally cook for you and fill your stomach.”

Gwendolyn leaned closer to his ear and whispered something that only the two of them could hear.

He flashed a rare solemn expression and replied, “No, that’s not allowed. You’re pregnant! After I’m done

administering the antidote, I’ll accompany you to the hospital first to make sure you’re fine. Only then will I let you

eat to your heart’s content!”

Despite her displeasure, Gwendolyn allowed him to carry her off the plane.

Nico had become accustomed to their constant public displays of affection and remained unaffected.

However, being curious as girls tend to be, Nicole asked, “Nico, what do you think Ms. Gwendolyn wants to eat that

would make Mr. Jenson show such an expression?”

Nico remained silent.

It seems that these two can only engage in banter and flirtation with little room for any other conversations beyond

their daily teasing.
