My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

357 Chapter Victoria thought of this and left contentedly...

But just after she left, the voice of Ellis cfrom behind again.

“It's about Keera...” Uncle Olsen teased wearily. “What now? Have you found out if she’s the illegitimate daughter of your dad or your second uncle?” Ellis’s mouth twitched slightly. “Well, I'll tell you in person when you cback!” Lest he get too excited and rush back overnight...

Uncle Olsen just grunted a sound and cursed him, “Now you've learned to be mysterious?” Listening to his voice, Ellis felt his mood seemed somewhat okay, so he asked, “How's your business going? Any news of Lady South?” Upon hearing this, Uncle Olsen fell silent.

His silence was the best answer.

Ellis broke the silence. “You should chand.His silence was the best answer.

Ellis broke the silence. “You should chand rest for a few days! It's not an urgent matter. No matter what, she’s still on earth. She can’t possibly have escaped to outer space, right?” Uncle Olsen's voice cthrough. “Got it.” Ellis ended the call, looking worried.

Uncle Olsen had searched for so long without finding her. Could those people have killed her? At the thought of this possibility, Ellis’s mood grew heavier.

He cast a glance back toward the bridal chamber and strode in...

Just as he entered, he saw Mary had already removed her makeup and wedding dress, exchanging them for a conservatively styled nightgown.

Seeing him enter, Mary cast her eyes down. “You take the bed. I'll sleep on the sofa.” Her ice—cold demeanor irritated Ellis, and he scoffed. “Mary, | didn’t marry you to be a decoration!” Mary stiffened.

Ellis walked to the bed, “Tonight is our wedding night. Surely you wouldn't want to upset me, would you?” Mary's face tensed. “What do you want?" Ellis lowered his gaze. “If you don't want a divorce, then remember to please me! We're supposed to be celebrating, not mourning. Who gave you permission to scowl?” Mary clenched her fists tightly.

Did this man truly not know why she was so cold? After such humiliation, how could she possibly greet him with a smile? She clenched her fists tightly and suddenly said, “Ellis, since you don't trustthat much, let's get a divorce after the child is born!” Ellis frowned upon hearing this, “What?” She had orchestrated this big charade just to marry him, hadn't she? A divorce? While he was pondering, he saw Mary walk over to the side and suddenly pull out two divorce papers from her bag.

On those papers, it was clearly stated that she'd leave with the child after giving birth, without a cent, having already signed her nin the designated spot.

Her demeanor didn’t seem feigned.

Ellis was momentarily stunned, then he stood up abruptly. “Do you really want a divorce?” Mary nodded. “This marriage is a constraint for both of us. You don’t want to be cuckolded, so wait for the child to be born, and then we can divorce.” Nine months should be enough tfor Keera to complete her mission, right? By then, she would truly be free...

Thinking of this, Mary saw Ellis suddenly toss the divorce agreements onto the table. “Mary, what gare you playing? After finally marrying me, would you be willing to let go and divorce me? Is this a stratagem to retreat in order to advance?”Seeing his reaction, Mary gave a bitter smile. “I've already signed the divorce papers, what games could | possibly play?” Ellis sneered. “Who knows? You went to great lengths to marry me, and on our wedding night, you tellyou want a divorce... Don't you think that's strange? Maybe there's a trap in this contract. I'll have my lawyer look at it before we proceed!” With those words, he took the contract and walked out.

At the doorway, he gave a cold laugh, as if to salvage his pride, and said fiercely, “Mary, you're truly unworthy of Mrs. Olsen's position! You're not planning to taint the Olsen family’s bloodline with this child. At least you have that much self-awareness!” Leaving that remark behind, he strode away.

Mary wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that Ellis seemed somewhat disheveled as if he was fleeing from something.

But how could that be? He didn’t even want to marry her in the first place, so But how could that be? He didn’t even want to marry her in the first place, so why would he be reluctant to divorce? Mary gave a bitter smile.

She sat on the bed and looked around.

The room was decorated with happiness, and the entire bridal chamber was filled with joy, but on such a wedding night, she was alone.

Indeed, such a bride was pitiful.

Ellis left the bridal chamber and drove straight out.

He went to a bar, found a private room, and then called his lawyer over, tossing the contract at him. “Take a look at this for me. Is there any trap in here?” The lawyer, slightly bewildered from being summoned in the middle of the night, took the two—page contract and read it quickly.

“There's no trap. This contract is very favorable to you. Mrs. Davis is leaving without taking anything with her except the child.

She won't take anything else that belongs to you.” Ellis was stunned. “She's serious?”Ellis was stunned. “She's serious?” The lawyer was puzzled. “Mr. Ellis, what do you mean?” Ellis cast his gaze downward, remaining silent.

Why did Mary want a divorce? Was it because once the child was born, a DNA test could be done, and so there would be leverage if the child wasn't his? oc
