Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1427: Do as I Say and I’ll Let You Go

Ethan Barnes’s handsome face immediately turned cold, "Little liar, I don’t believe you. Let me check."

He actually wanted to check.

Celeste Linden felt suffocated just thinking about her life being watched by him, she wanted to escape, but his ways were extreme and perverse. However, to escape his clutches, she didn’t resist and let him check.

Soon, Ethan concluded that she was indeed on her period.

Of all times, it had to be now, who wouldn’t feel disappointed? Ethan directly displayed his bad mood on his face.

Seeing him frustrated, Celeste felt quite pleased, "You’ve checked. I wasn’t lying, was I? I trust you wouldn’t fight a bloody battle."

Ethan saw through her little scheme, "A bloody battle? That’s an interesting term, Celeste. Why don’t we give it a try?"

Pervert!

"Ethan Barnes, if you want to act crazy, don’t drag me into it. I’m on my period now. If you force me, I’ll get a gynecological illness!"

"Celeste, I can refrain from touching you, but first, you must answer me one question."

"What question?"

"Did your husband Dominic Reynolds ever touch you?"

Celeste realized the gravity of the question. Although he knew Dominic hadn’t touched her recently, he was unaware of the past.

"Celeste, I’ve had someone investigate. Your private life has been very clean these past five years, no men around you except for Dominic. You married two years ago. During the marriage, did Dominic ever touch you?"

"He did! Ethan, what are you thinking? Dominic and I are a real couple, both in name and in fact. Do you honestly think I would remain chaste for you and that my marriage with Dominic is a sham? Wake up, stop dreaming." Celeste said coldly.

Ethan’s handsome face changed suddenly, his gaze was cold and sharp as he stared at Celeste, "Are you serious?"

"Of course it’s true!" Celeste lied.

Ethan pursed his thin lips, then took something out of his pocket, "Damn it, someone dared touch my woman; I’ll go take him out right now!"

Celeste was surprised when he suddenly pulled out a cold weapon. Her heart skipped a beat, and she swiftly held onto the agitated Ethan, "Don’t go!"

"Get out! I’ll finish off Dominic and then come back to deal with you!" Ethan cursed.

"Ethan, I was joking earlier, Dominic never touched me, he never did, please don’t hurt him!"

Ethan stopped, his eyes dark and murky, "Are you telling the truth? He never touched you?"

"No, no, not just him, no man has touched me in these five years. Are you satisfied now?" Celeste’s little face had turned pale.

Ha.

Haha.

Ethan suddenly laughed, rewarding her by biting her cheek, "As expected of my woman, I knew you wouldn’t cheat on me!"

"Put the gun away first."

"Are you scared? Don’t be afraid, there’s no bullet inside, I was just trying to scare you. Who knew you were so timid, confessing immediately." Ethan shrugged.

What?

There were no bullets at all, he was just playing with her?

Celeste felt a chill in her heart, she raised her hand and slapped Ethan hard across his handsome face.

Slap.

Ethan didn’t dodge, taking the slap solidly.

Celeste opened the car door and tried to get out. She didn’t want to stay any longer, she hated this devil.

But Ethan grabbed her slender white wrist, "What? You think you can leave after hitting me? Celeste, am I too lenient on you?"

"Let me go!" Celeste struggled.

Ethan trapped her on his lap and pressed her small hand onto his belt, "Behave, and I’ll let you go."

...

Celeste returned to the room with a pale face, Dominic had already showered and was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Celeste paused, "Dominic, have you finished your shower?"

Dominic turned around, "Celeste, where did you go?"

Celeste instinctively wrapped her cardigan tighter around herself, "Oh, met a friend, that friend had an emergency, I’ve taken care of it and he’s gone."

Dominic nodded, "Then go and have a bath."

Celeste went into the bathroom.

Standing by the window, Dominic had already seen it, a black luxury car parked outside on the street, Celeste had just come out of it.

Dominic left the villa, thinking he needed to meet the man in that car.

In front of the luxury car, Dominic raised his fingers and knocked on the window.

Soon, the back window slowly rolled down, Ethan’s handsome face appeared in view, he had been waiting for Dominic, he knew Dominic would come.

"Who are you? What’s your relationship with my wife?" Dominic looked at Ethan.

Ethan smirked, "It’s not appropriate to ask me that question, because Celeste doesn’t want me to tell you. You’d better ask your wife."

"Celeste?"

"Yeah, Celeste Linden, don’t you know your wife’s real name? Or do you only know her as angel?" Ethan shrugged with a smile.

Dominic had never actively asked about Celeste’s past, because he knew it was a scar in her heart. If she wanted to speak, she would tell him.

It was the first time he heard the name "Celeste Linden."

"If you’re interested in your wife’s past, you can have someone investigate."

"No need, that’s all in the past. Please stay away from my wife, we are very happy now, and don’t want any interference."

Ethan raised an eyebrow, a hint of mischief, "That depends on Celeste’s choice, whether she chooses me or you."

Then Ethan remembered something, "Oh, by the way, thank you for taking care of Celeste these years, Celeste said you were very gentlemanly and considerate. She didn’t want to share a room with you, so you’ve never touched her. She feels very guilty about this, feels sorry for you. Our affair is also hurting you, for that, I’m sorry, but love, you can’t control it, right, Mr. Reynolds?"

She actually told this man all about their married life?

Dominic knew she harbored a man in her heart, and once this man appeared in his vision, he knew, he was the man in her heart.

Even the most gentlemanly, warm-hearted man would now look very unpleasant.

"Mr. Reynolds, I have matters to attend to, I’ll be leaving. Oh, Celeste is on her period, please take good care of her. I’ll repay you for that." With that, the black luxury car sped away.

Dominic stood in place, watching Ethan’s car fade into the distance, his hands at his sides were already clenched into fists.
