Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 341

Chapter 341: Left and Right Guardians

A wave of commenters, claiming to feel sorry for Angelica, swarmed Selina’s Twitter feed.

"Angelica’s going through a lot. As a fellow woman, can’t you have some compassion? She only targeted you because Katie manipulated her. Katie’s in jail now, so you two should make peace!"

"Yeah, those scumbags from the Clark family can’t touch you anymore. Can’t you just let Angelica go?"

"Selina, if Angelica loses this baby, she’ll never be able to be a mother. How can you live with that? Are you even a woman?"

"Let’s be honest, Angelica and Mr. Reid had an engagement first. You’re the one who came in between them. Now you want her baby gone? Please—you’re just the legal wife. What’s there to be smug about? Illegitimate children have inheritance rights too. Angelica is the real wife-to-be now. You should step aside."

Selina: "..."

Had these people never gone to school? What kind of logic gymnastics were required to type that with a straight face?

The dynasty was long gone, yet here they were proudly volunteering to be someone’s concubine, as if it were noble.

Just looking at the comments was an insult to her intelligence.

She closed Twitter. There was no point arguing online—it wouldn’t solve anything. What she needed was proof.

Proof that Angelica wasn’t pregnant.

Ding ding ding.

Her phone rang.

It was an unknown number. Selina raised an eyebrow and answered.

Daniel’s voice came through.

"Selina, I assume you’ve heard. Angelica’s baby is the firstborn of the Reid family—there’s no way we’re letting it go. But considering you’re still Logan’s legal wife, I’m willing to compromise. Come to the Reid estate tomorrow and we’ll talk."

Selina let out a soft chuckle. "And what does Chairman Reid want to ’discuss’?"

Daniel, feigning generosity, replied, "I originally wanted you to divorce Logan immediately, but Chairman Morris asked us to speak with you first. Angelica is the Morris heiress. She needs a proper title."

"If you want to stay with Logan, you’ll have to divorce him and stay on as a mistress. If you don’t want that, then just leave. It’s your call."

Selina let out a cold laugh.

Oh? Should she be grateful then? Grateful that the chairman wasn’t just kicking her out but instead offering her two utterly degrading choices? How generous.

She hung up and blocked the number.

But still... she would go to the Reid estate.

"I’ll go with you."

Selina turned to see Logan standing behind her.

"You heard that?" she asked.

"It was hard not to, with he shouting like that," Logan said with a nod. "Selina, that child has nothing to do with me. I’ve only ever cared about you. I’ve never touched anyone else."

Selina’s ears turned slightly red. "..."

Yeah, well... considering how thoroughly he had "expressed" himself last night, it was hard to imagine him having the energy for anyone else.

...

The next day, a Reid family car pulled up outside Sapphire Valley Villa.

The Reid family’s butler came personally. Luke found out what was happening and insisted on going with Selina—no way was he letting her go to the Reid estate alone. He climbed right into the passenger seat.

The butler’s throat tightened. "Young Master Luke, I’m here to pick up Miss Clark."

"Miss Clark? Are you kidding me? That’s the young madam! You’ve worked for the Reid family for decades and you still don’t know that? Logan’s the young master, so his wife is the young madam!"
