Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1831: The Grand Finale

Crystal White had been waiting for Ethan Barnes to take responsibility for her, but after waiting and waiting, she received no word from him. What did he mean by this?

Crystal went looking for him and saw Ethan and Celeste Linden standing together from afar. She didn’t know what the two had talked about, but Ethan sent Celeste off into a car, and she left.

Crystal quickly clenched her fists. Could the two of them be reigniting their old flame?

No.

She definitely couldn’t let this happen.

Crystal ran over, her face full of grievance, and said, “Ethan, did Celeste just come over? Aren’t you going to divorce Celeste? Didn’t you promise to be responsible for me? How can you do this?”

Ethan glanced at Crystal and walked into the house.

Crystal chased after him, clinging to him, “Ethan, today you must give me an explanation. I am a proper young lady; I’ve given you my purity; you have to take responsibility.”

Ethan looked at her, “I do intend to divorce Celeste, but she’s carrying my child, and I can’t just abandon her.”

With that, Ethan pushed Crystal out and shut the door.

Outside, Crystal’s face was full of jealousy. It was all because of Celeste and her unborn child; she must get rid of them!

Crystal acted quickly. She paid several burly men to say, “I’ll give you a million to grab a woman named Celeste Linden and dump her into the river, make her disappear completely.”

The burly men, blinded by money, immediately agreed, “Alright, transfer the million to our account first, and we’ll go grab her.”

“Fine.”

Crystal agreed readily, transferring a million into their account.

For the next two days, Crystal waited for news, for the announcement of Celeste’s death, but after waiting and waiting, she heard nothing, and an uneasy feeling grew in her heart.

She felt like something had gone wrong somewhere.

Crystal was panicked; she packed two pieces of clothing to hide away for a while.

But as soon as she opened the door, she was faced with uniformed police, “Crystal White, you’re now under arrest for hiring someone to commit murder.”

Cold handcuffs were fastened onto Crystal’s wrists.

Crystal felt a chill in her heart; her uneasy feeling was completely confirmed—it was happening, it was happening.

“I didn’t hire anyone to kill, you don’t have evidence, I’m innocent, I want to hire a lawyer.”

At that moment, a Jeep drove over at high speed, the door opened, and Ethan appeared with Celeste.

Ethan laughed, “Crystal, do you still want to deny it? The transaction of the million you sent and your conversations with those men were all recorded by me, you can’t escape.”

That night, Ethan had implanted a monitoring device in Crystal’s hair.

Crystal gasped in shock, looking at Ethan and Celeste; she instantly understood, “You were acting; you were deceiving me. You actually didn’t divorce, did you?”

Celeste nodded, “Yes, we were acting for you to reveal your true self.”

Ethan put his arm around Celeste’s shoulder, “That night, I wasn’t drunk at all; I was just coldly watching your performance. Crystal, your acting skills are truly pathetic.”

Crystal completely broke down, “Ethan, why do you treat me like this? I love you; I truly love you!”

Ethan looked at Celeste, “In this lifetime, I only love one woman, and that’s my wife, Celeste Linden.”

Crystal, full of unwillingness and regret, was taken into the car.

Ethan wrapped his arms around Celeste’s waist, “Honey, let’s go home.”

Celeste happily leaned into his embrace and whispered softly, “Ethan, I love you.”

At this moment, Danielle’s tender voice called out, “Daddy, Mommy~”

The end.
