Married to a Masquerading Tycoon novel Chapter 7

Mrs. Carter’s face twisted in anger.

“Son, I don’t mind you dating whoever you want.”

“But marriage? That’s a different story. How could you marry someone like her?!”

“And what kind of person am I?” I shot back, a cold smile forming on my lips.

“Your son was the one who got down on his knees and begged me to marry him.”

“He didn’t even bother with an engagement ring or anything!”

“And he made me sign a prenup before the ink was dry.”

“I’ve done nothing wrong—I’ve never once betrayed your son!”

Sure, I wasn’t some rich heiress, but I didn’t grow up lacking anything either. I was

my parents’ only daughter, and they made sure I was well taken care of.

When your son wanted to marry me, my parents didn’t ask for anything extravagant.

They just wanted to help us get started, offering to contribute $5,000 toward our

future together.

They were even going to add an extra $5,000 so we could build our life as a couple.

But Alexander said taking financial help from my family was like accepting charity.

Trying to be the understanding wife, I didn’t take a single cent from my parents when

we got married.

After we tied the knot, we skipped the big wedding and the honeymoon to save

money.

All we had were a few small gatherings in my hometown to make it official.

I never complained, not once.

But if I hadn’t uncovered his lies...

He kept talking about saving for our future, yet he had no problem wiring $8888 to

his ex, Emily Lane.

Maybe I would’ve stayed blind to the truth forever.

“When I married your son, I had no idea he came from a wealthy family.”

“I stuck by him when times were tough—how exactly did I wrong him?” I demanded.

Mrs. Carter’s face flushed with anger.

“How dare you talk back to me like this?!”

“It’s clear you’re from a low-class family. No wonder you don’t have any manners!”

“I will never accept you as my daughter-in-law!”

“How could someone like you even think you deserve my son?”

Mr. Carter interrupted before she could continue,

“That’s enough. They’re already married. What’s the point of arguing now?”

But I smiled coolly, “Who says it’s too late?”

“Sir, you seem like a reasonable man.”

“When I married Alexander, I had no clue he was the heir to a billion-dollar fortune.”

I glanced at Alexander, who looked stunned and pathetic, and felt nothing but

disgust.
