Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival by Jobet GraySon

Chapter Twenty

Third Person POV.

Martha stared at Richard, her eyes widening in surprise. Her son had always made it clear that

marriage was not in his plans. So when he suddenly announced that he was getting married in a week,

it came as a shock. She couldn’t help but question if she had heard him correctly.

“What are you talking about, Richard?” Martha asked, her voice tinged with disbelief. “Getting married?

Since when? You’ve always been against the idea, desperate the many times that I tried to convince

you otherwise. So, what’s this about getting married out of nowhere?”

Richard maintained his composure, meeting his mother’s gaze with a calm resolve. “I understand this might have come as a surprise, Mom. But yes, I am getting married in a week. I just thought you and

Dad should know.”

Raymond, Richard’s father, struggled to process the news. His son, who had been adamant about his disinterest in marriage, was suddenly changing course. The air was thick with confusion as he voiced his skepticism. “Richard, why the sudden change of heart? And why does the marriage have to happen in

such haste?”

Richard knew he had anticipated such questions. He had prepared himself for the disbelief and doubt

that would inevitably follow his announcement. He mentally prepared himself for the lies he would respond with, knowing very well that he could not afford any slip–ups that would make his father

suspicious.
