Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 282: Night Affairs

Do I keep waiting or should I send another email? Maybe they didn’t see my previous one? Athena thought while sitting on the bed, staring at her phone. Her feet made a tap dance on the floor while her left hand made the same on her lap.

It had been more than fifteen minutes since she had sent an email to the address Nathaniel had given her, but so far, there hadn’t been a reply.

Were they asleep already? She wondered, looking at her phone keenly as if she could magically rouse the hackers through its screen.

Asleep, though? She didn’t think so. Nighttime was the time for these people—a time without interruptions, both in network waves and physically.

They just didn’t want to reply to her. She thought forlornly, wishing she could share this dilemma with her children. Yet, she didn’t want to disturb them, nor did she want to inform them of the email’s contents.

After waiting for five more minutes, she gave up and dropped the phone on her dresser.

At that moment, she remembered the second important thing she was supposed to do this night.

So, she picked up the phone again and started a video call with Aiden first, hesitating a little to add the others, curious to see Aiden’s expression when he answered her call.

But he didn’t answer.

She pursed her lips, threatening fire and brimstone should he ignore her call again. He was online, for goodness’ sake!

But he missed her call for the second time, and no fire and brimstone fell.

She cursed under her breath, wanting to erase him from the plan, but knowing that she couldn’t. He had helped her get this far; she couldn’t leave him by the wayside.

So, she tried for the third time. This time around Aiden answered the call.

Athena maintained a calm expression as she took in the features of his face. Despite being in his mid-forties, he still looked like a man in his thirties, evidence of good genes and a diligent attention to his diet and exercise. She had not seen anyone so strict with food as Aiden. He only indulged in sugary foods and junk once in a while.

Even though a frown masked his face, he was a handsome man who still attracted women in droves, and she was still amazed that he hadn’t given marriage another chance.

Could it be that he was eternally scarred by his last marriage or that he was still in love with his ex-wife, considering the hold she still had over his emotions?

Trust me, the latter won’t be satisfied when you are done. So... please bring Morgan to justice from a place of fairness...
