Chapter 8
Darius frowned in annoyance.
“Kieran Sterling, so it really is you. You were also the one who signed the surgery consent forms that day! You’re completely out of line, Just because we borrowed one vial of your sperm, you think you’re some kind of heir’s daddy? Did you forget you’re just a fucking driver?!”
Hearing this, 1 looked up in shock
So that driver named “K–something” was actually Kieran
That meant the baby I was carrying was Kieran’s child?||
I looked up at him with delight, meeting his confirming, gaze.||
Suddenly the lingering pain in my abdomen lessened considerably, and the nausea in my threat disappeared completely.
Meanwhile, before Darius could finish speaking, a bodyguard punched him and sent him flying into Celeste. They both crashed to the floor in a pathetic Heap
The bodyguard said coldly. “Mr. Reed, please show some respect. The Sterling hoir’s name is not for you to use so casually. If you keep talking such nonsense, we’ll have to get serious.“]
Darius clutched his ribs, grimacing in pain while cursing angrily. “Getting addicted to this act, aren’t you?…”
The next instant, a gun was pressed to his forehead.
Darius immediately swallowed his words in terror.
Seeing the Sterling logo on the gun handle, he couldn’t say another word.
Kieran thoughtfully wiped the cream from the corner of my mouth, then waited beside me like a spoiled child for me to feed him.
Only wher eating the cupcake I fed him by hand did he turn his head with satisfaction to look at the two people who were already huddled together on the floor in terror.

Darius firstly snapped back to reality and was on his knees begging.
“Mr. Sterling, why would someone of your status spend three years working as my driver? I’m not worthy of such honor! This whole pulling investments thing is just a joke, right? Just tell me what I did wrong and I’ll fix it immediately!-l
Celeste also rushed forward “Mr. Sterling, don’t let this woman fool you! She was wild when she was young–she was with multiple men at once… A family like yours could even accept that kind of woman! I’ll be too late once you’re married! Mr. Sterling, I can do anything. I studied etiquette and know all the rules! I’m prettier than Ivy, younger than her–how about considering me instead?”
“What? Celeste, you-
Before Darius could finish, Kieran had already locked Celeste away
When Celeste tried to get up in pain, the bodyguards held her down and beat her some more.]]
Kieran wiped his shoe with disgust. “What, think I don’t hit women?“]]
Seeing that Celeste didn’t dare speak anymore, Kieran threw a stack of documents in front of the two of them]]
“Originally I went undercover at your company just to protect Ivy, but you guys were so stupid that I barely had to dig to find evidence of embezzlement and mosey laundering. You did a real nice job cooking those books.“[]
-Since you’re here, I don’t have much to
to offer a
as hospitality, so I’ll just ti
treat you to a few days of jail food.”
Seeing the police enter, Darius completely panicked
“Kieran Sterling, you dare arrest me? You steal my wife, destroy my company, and now you want to send me to prison? I’ll remember this! Just wait! You think the Sterling family is easy to bully?”
Kieran didn’t look up, just waved his hand for them to take Darius and Celeste away!]
I never imagined he’d go this far for me to take care of me, he’d actually gone undercover as a driver in their company for three years]
My eyes got a little misty.
- ty. Kieran used his thumb to wipe away my tears and pulled me into his arms
“It’s okay, honey, it’s all over nay. Don’t cry. I didn’t suffer at all–bring close to you made me happy.”
But Darius only lasted a few days inside before his family bailed him out.]
After all, while the Reed family wasn’t as powerful as the Sterlings, they still had some connections.
But Kieran said that Darius’s company was in delit for billions, and with the money they’d have to pay in damages plus bail, the Reed family would drain all their resources because of him alone. From now on, he’d have no backing.
What surprised me was that he also balled Celeste out
I don’t know what Celeste said to him, but I heard that after they had a fight during visiting hours, Darius paid up and made a high–profile announcement that they’d be getting married at the end of the month.
Coincidentally, he announced their wedding would be at the city’s most luxurious five–star hotel–the same day and venue as my wedding with Kieran
When I asked around. I found out that Darius was broke but still wanted to show off. He’d somehow found a scalper selling discounted tickets. The scalper didn’t know Kieran had already hooked the entire venue, so he sold the tickets to Darius too.
When Kieran heard that, he just smiled calmly.
“No worries. Since he wants to make a big show of it, we’ll give him a wedding he’ll never forget.“]]
