Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1740: Innocent and Blameless

"Okay." Celeste Linden turned and left.

"Angel!" Daniel Langdon was unwilling to give up and tried to chase after Celeste Linden.

But Ethan Barnes stepped forward, hands in his pockets, blocking Daniel Langdon.

Daniel Langdon looked at Ethan Barnes, "Ethan, let’s clear things up now. I like Angel, and I know about you and Angel’s past. Haven’t you hurt Angel enough in the past? Why do you want to marry her now? You must have threatened her, or else she wouldn’t marry you."

Ethan Barnes looked at Daniel Langdon calmly, "Daniel, the past between Celeste and me is something between the two of us and has nothing to do with you as a third party."

"But..."

"If Celeste liked you, you would have been together already, wouldn’t you? Since you’re not together and I’ve already married her, what right do you have to come and accuse a newlywed couple?"

Daniel Langdon was rendered speechless. He was confident about himself and the future with Angel, but it was useless; Celeste Linden had never felt anything for him.

In the end, Celeste Linden simply did not like him.

"I owe Celeste for the past, and I will spend my lifetime making amends. Celeste is now my wife, the mother of my daughter, so I hope this is the last time. If I see you bothering her again, then our many years of brotherhood will be at an end. A brother’s wife is to be respected, and you should understand this."

Daniel Langdon looked at Ethan Barnes. At that moment, Ethan’s expression was very calm, with a strong and domineering aura as he silently gazed at him.

Daniel Langdon clenched his fists, realizing it was all settled; there was no possibility with Angel.

"Ethan, I hope you treat Angel and Danielle well. If I find out you treat them badly in any way, I will definitely come back, and then our brotherhood will truly be over."

After saying this, Daniel Langdon left.

...

Celeste Linden was playing with Danielle, but she was somewhat distracted, wondering how Ethan and Daniel’s talk went. Ethan’s fiery temper wouldn’t have led to a fight, right?

Meanwhile, the way Ethan called out "Celeste" earlier kept echoing in her ears. She increasingly suspected whether Ethan was feigning amnesia.

Her mind was wandering when Danielle’s sweet, childish voice rang out, "Daddy, you’re here~"

Celeste Linden looked up; Ethan Barnes had returned.

She quickly stood up, "You’re back. Where’s Daniel? Did you talk properly without fighting?"

Ethan Barnes coldly snorted, "Celeste Linden, are you afraid I’d fight Daniel? Do you think Daniel is too weak, or am I too strong?"

"..."

That wasn’t what she meant; she and Daniel were friends after all. She didn’t want a fight between the two because of her.

"Celeste Linden, why aren’t you saying anything? I was just about to ask you seriously about Daniel. When did you start to attract my dear brother?" he questioned.

"Attract? I didn’t actively attract him, I..."

"Hmph, if you didn’t actively attract him, if you didn’t seduce him, would Daniel fancy you? Daniel has high standards. Do you still think you’re some Celestial Beauty?"

Seeing his sharp tongue, Celeste Linden thought she was indeed overthinking. How could he be faking amnesia? He truly had lost his memory.

"Daniel and I are completely innocent. If you don’t believe that, then so be it!"
