Chapter 254: 235、Owe you the wedding night

Michael Gordon was caught off guard by her sudden question and didn’t know how to react.

"What about you?" Ivy Aretha rubbed his chest, "Did you wear a condom?"

Condom?

Did he need a condom?

"No, condoms are for irresponsible men who only want to sleep around!" Mr. Gordon always took pride in this. The women he slept with were meant to be with him for a lifetime. "I, Michael Gordon, only sleep with my wife! Why would I need a condom?"

Moreover, how could his daughter’s brother be conceived if he wore a condom?

He had a mission now!

Hearing this, Ivy felt suffocated by an indescribable emotion. Calvin Gordon was still forcing them to divorce. If she got pregnant again, she would become the kind of woman who tried to marry into a wealthy family by surrogacy, hated by her in-laws.

Her reputation didn’t matter as much as their uncertain future. How could they know about the child’s future?

"Michael, we’re not ready to have children right now. So next time, you take precautions, okay?" Ivy looked at him seriously, frowning. "I’ll take the pill this time!"

Not ready for kids? Taking the pill?

Hearing these words, Michael Gordon’s handsome face darkened instantly. There was a hint of anger in his eyes. In the next moment, he gripped her chin: "We are husband and wife, and you’re not high-risk pregnant. Our daughter needs a brother. We ought to have kids! What do you mean by saying we’re not ready for children?"

Oliver Thompson once said that the simplest way to see if a woman loves you and wants to stay or leave is whether she is willing to have a child for you. So, when his woman had a child for him, she was completely devoted to him!

But why, when it came to himself, despite having his child already, she wasn’t completely devoted yet?

Such a big thing had happened. Logically, she should be the one afraid, but why was it him instead?

"Michael, what did you discuss with your father afterward?" Ivy still wanted to know; hiding things had never been her style. "And when do you plan to tell me the results of your investigation into my background?"

Michael was caught off guard by her directness. His mind went blank before he reacted: "Mario Jensen told you?"

He had been secretly investigating this matter, and nobody knew about it, not even his father. The only possibility was that Adam had stolen the information Mario Jensen investigated. Knowing this information should have been harmless, but he was dissatisfied that his wife had asked Mario Jensen when facing this situation.

"Ivy Aretha, don’t provoke other people’s child’s father. If you have any questions, you can ask your husband directly!"

Ivy: "..." Did she provoke someone else’s child’s father?

No, that’s not the point. She couldn’t be sidetracked by him!

"Now I’m asking you, what’s going on? Can you tell me now?" Ivy leaned on his chest, threatening him with both hands. "Speak up, or never set foot in my bed again!"

They had slept together, yet he kept this from her. Were they even a married couple?

Michael looked at her serious face, knowing she spoke from the heart, and then stared deeply into her eyes. He held her hand against his chest: "Fine, I’ll tell you. Your father’s name is David Aretha, and your mother’s name is Emma Stones. They were once the lord and lady of Andara City. You survived a car accident that happened while they were traveling. As for the grudge my dad mentioned between your mother and the Gordon family before she married your father, I don’t know the details yet. I’m still investigating!"

"I already know what you’re telling me, but I want to know why seeing my face caused your father’s heart disease to flare up. Was he in love with my mother, who didn’t love him back and married my father? Or did my mother and your father have a romance, carrying his child, then married my father and gave birth to me?"

Ivy stared into Michael’s eyes, recounting the countless possibilities she had imagined in her mind. "Then we’re siblings? And had a child together?"

Listening to all the nonsense she was spouting, Michael could feel his face turning red with anger: "Ivy Aretha, has your brain gone stupid? What kind of ridiculous ideas are those? Siblings? Is your imagination from outer space?"

A usually smart woman was spouting nonsense even worse than a melodramatic drama today. Except for being hit on the head, he couldn’t think of another suitable word to explain it!

"I’m just saying there’s a possibility. Who made you not tell me?"

If he had explained, she wouldn’t have had to guess wildly.

"You really are... sigh!" Michael felt at a loss for words, overwhelmed. "If you were my sister, would my father only ask not to see you and have me stay? He should hate us both. Anyway, back then, the Gordon family and the Cooper family were business rivals. My father led the Gordon family, and the head of the Cooper family was the daughter of the Cooper family, Luna Cooper. They competed for a batch of jewelry business in Andara City, and they were responsible for the death of seven people, including my father’s only sister, my aunt. That’s all I know!"

Seven lives?

A ruined family?

Michael Gordon’s aunt had died in this incident?!

Ivy had to admit she was shocked by this news: "What kind of jewelry business was it? What made people so desperate to fight over it? Your aunt was killed?!"

"It seems to be a legendary treasure. Luna Cooper kidnapped my aunt to gain an advantage. My aunt was very volatile, so she angered the kidnappers, and they raped and killed her. That’s why..."

Michael’s voice became choked as he tried to continue the story, and Ivy was stupefied. No wonder Calvin Gordon reacted so strongly when he saw her.

That woman had used such despicable means to kill her own sister, and upon hearing this, Ivy could hardly look into Michael’s eyes. She feared he would impulsively kill her due to his strong emotions.

If she put herself in his shoes, she would want to strangle him too. Since ancient times, the debts of parents have been paid by their children!

"Later, the Gordon family members who went to rescue my aunt also died. The case became more prominent, and the police got involved. The Cooper family claimed that Luna committed suicide out of fear, but actually, she changed her identity, got married, and became the lady of Andara City, your mother. As for how credible this is, I don’t know? But my father believes it when he sees your face!"

That’s how it was?

Ivy suddenly thought of Alya Larson’s words: the rape back then was for revenge, and their meeting was not an accident but the result of a conspiracy. Ivy’s heart, which had just been repaired, was shattered again in an instant!

After a moment of silence, Ivy asked Michael: "Now that you know, how do you plan to deal with me?"
