Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 132

What Julie didn’t see coming was that the folder contained a contract.

The contract was signed years ago between Bertha and Kieran.

When Julie saw Kieran and Bertha’s names on the contract, she was shocked. She didn’t read out the contents of the contract verbatim as Kieran requested.

She just gave the contract a quick look.

The terms were clear. The contract stipulated that Kieran had to publicly acknowledge Bertha as his fiancee, but they could never marry.

Bertha also promised Kieran that she would never reveal Julie as Kieran’s ex-wife.

They agreed to keep their child out of the public eye, but Bertha would not keep the child unless Kieran and Julie divorced.

The contract also clearly stated that if Kieran let Julie know about the contract, Bertha would immediately reveal Julie’s status as an ex-wife and have an abortion.

But what left Julie puzzled was, since Bertha had already promised that her child was not Kieran’s biological child, why would Kieran agree to all of Bertha’s demands in the contract to protect her child?

She might not have been so confused if she hadn’t seen the contract, but the contents only deepened her doubts.

Kieran had told her that

relationship with Bertha was not what she thought. Now it seemed that was true. Bertha had also admitted

that her child was not Kieran’s biological child.

But she didn’t understand why Kieran would rather divorce her to protect that child, even at the expense of his own biological child?

Julie, who had initially decided to leave, now had her mind full of these questions.

Julie suddenly felt that there were many truths behind this that she couldn’t imagine. If she insisted on asking Kieran, she might not be able to accept his answer.

Julie tried to snatch her clothes from Kieran’s hand, I’ve seen the contract. Can I go now?”

She acted as if nothing had happened and tried to take back her clothes.
