Bettany’s face twisted in disbelief. “If you don’t know, don’t make wild guesses! It’s Anthony’s first marriage, not a second one.”

Hannah, with only a partial understanding of what a second marriage meant, replied, “Oh… then what was that marriage certificate they had before?”

They even celebrated with a big family dinner when they received the marriage certificate. It was a special occasion they had deliberately marked.

Bettany patiently explained from the sidelines…

Meanwhile, Gilbert had finished eating but remained seated at the dining table, typing on his phone:

Gilbert: [Guys, there’s something I need to tell you about Anthony… So this morning…]

Anthony glanced at the phone, his gaze immediately warning Gilbert.

Gilbert held the phone and raised an eyebrow, his intentions of blackmail evident.

[Dear esteemed user, your account ending in 8888 has received a deposit of 10,000,000 dollars, new balance…]

Gilbert burst into laughter, his eyes squinting.

In the group chat, messages started pouring in:

Edward: [What happened to Anthony this morning? You left us hanging. Watch your back!]

Jonas: [What’s up? Did Anthony disturb someone’s grave? He seems hesitant to spill the beans.]

Max: [What’s wrong with Anthony? Just spill it out!]

Gilbert continued messaging the group:
