Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Was this so-called Cynthia actually Cynthia Abbott, the one who fled her wedding all those years ago? But that was ancient history. If Augus didn’t love Arlene, how could they have three kids together? Augus was still coughing, his eyes lifeless as they stared out the window, as if in the span of mere moments, he had been drained totally. “Beck, you’ll do the digging about your sister. If by some miracle she’s alive, then I’m leaving her the entire Sanders family fortune. I want her to live out her days without a worry; I want her.” he started coughing again. “Dad, calm down, please.” Augus looked up at him, “You don’t resent?” The boys wouldn’t get a share of the stock, only other assets.

Beck rubbed his temples, overwhelmed by the situation. He hung up and heard Augus ask, “What did Dylan say this time?” “Dad, he says Judith is dying and wants to see you.” “That’s not your sister. She might be the very reason your real sister is dead.” Just as he finished speaking, the door burst open, and Arlene dropped to her knees at the threshold. “Honey, please see Judith. I beg you. She’s been with me all these years. If you don’t, I’ll end it all!” She pulled out a dagger, pressing it to her throat.
