Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1694: I Love Her

The socialite guaranteed, "Admiral’s wife, rest assured, this method is absolutely reliable."

Carlotta made up her mind. She would use this method and tonight she must take a gamble.

...

Ethan Barnes left the hot spring pool and entered the room to change clothes.

Just then, with a "click," the door to the room suddenly opened, and someone walked in.

"Who?" Ethan’s sharp, gloomy eyes swept toward the door.

It was Carlotta who entered.

Carlotta looked at Ethan, "Husband, it’s me."

Ethan frowned, a bit displeased, "How did you get into my room?"

"Everyone knows we are married, I am your admiral’s wife. I went to the manager, and the manager gave me a spare key card to your room. I swiped the card to get in."

Ethan finished dressing and spoke with thin lips, "Carlotta, we are already divorced. Let’s keep our distance from now on. Don’t do this again."

With that, Ethan was about to leave.

Carlotta looked at his heartless figure and quickly rushed forward, hugging him tightly from behind, "Ethan, don’t go. How can you be so heartless to me?"

Ethan’s steps halted, and his handsome eyelids drooped down. He said softly, "Carlotta, I have always kept your sacrifices and dedication in my heart. I married you to try to make it up to you in this way."

"But this way was wrong. Marriage is not a tool. For three years, you haven’t been happy, and neither have I. We’ve both lived very oppressively."

Carlotta quickly cut him off, "Ethan, don’t say anymore. All these grandiose reasons you give are, in truth, because you can’t forget Celeste Linden. Do you want to marry Celeste Linden?"

Ethan’s large hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist, "Yes, I can’t forget Celeste Linden. For these three years, I haven’t forgotten her for a single moment."

"Carlotta, I only feel guilty towards you, but I’ve given my heart to Celeste Linden. If she’s willing, I’d like to marry her immediately. I’m just afraid she won’t be willing. She wouldn’t want to marry me."

"Even though I’ve never said it aloud, I’ve fallen in love with her. I love Celeste Linden."

Hearing these words filled Carlotta with intense jealousy. He admitted it; he finally admitted he loved Celeste Linden.

What makes Celeste so deserving?

Ethan was hers.

Carlotta held back, "Fine, Ethan, I can agree to divorce you. I won’t bother you again in the future, no matter if you’re with Celeste Linden or any other woman. I won’t disturb you, but you must agree to one condition."

Ethan reached out, pried off Carlotta’s hand, and pushed her away, "What condition?"

"You need to stay with me tonight. I want you to spend one night with me."

Ethan pursed his thin lips and immediately refused, "Impossible."

"Why, Ethan? Just one night, can’t you even agree to this? I’ve already backed down to this point, living the rest of my life relying on the beautiful memory of tonight," Carlotta pleaded bitterly.

Ethan remained unmoved. He no longer had the feelings he once had for Carlotta and would not touch her.

"Carlotta, I can’t meet your condition. I’m leaving." Ethan turned and left.

"Ethan Barnes, don’t go!"

Carlotta spread her arms, blocking Ethan’s path. She suddenly curled her lips into a smile, as if her scheme had succeeded, smiling manically, "Haven’t you noticed anything different?"
