The Real and Fake Husband

[So Miguel's mommy is the real CEO's wife. I was almost fooled by the fake one. What a close call.]

[That's right, she's not a mistress, is she? Isn't it true that all mistresses can't see the light of day? Why is she still arrogant in front of the real wife with her illegitimate daughter? Shame on her!]

[Ms. Palmer, why are you silent? Are you running away and then hiding somewhere?]

I did not pay attention to those speculations and slanderous words, but stared at the marriage certificate in a daze.

I did not know if it was because of the angle, but I felt like the stamp on the marriage certificate was not very clear.

I circled the photo and asked.

[Ms. Reitman, your marriage certificate doesn't seem to have a stamp, could it be fake?]

Seeing what I typed, Bianca got angry.

She quickly sent out a few detailed pictures of the marriage certificate, and also sent the contract that Daniele sponsored the kindergarten to the group chat.

[Ms, Palmer, you will be held legally responsible for making up rumors!]

[I was thinking that since your daughter and my son are classmates, I would not make things difficult for you, but I didn't expect you to go even further!]

I clicked on the photo and I saw that there was indeed a clear stamp on the marriage certificate.

There was no problem with that contract either.

I was not aware of my husband's sponsorship of a playground for the kindergarten, so I had never seen the contract.

But how could Bianca has a photo of the contract?

Just as I was lost in thought, Andrea suddenly sent me a few messages.

[Ms. Palmer, why don't you apologize to Ms. Reitman? Maybe there's still room for discussing.]

[Don't blame me for being rude. Since you are a mistress, you should be prepared to live a life of humiliation. You let your illegitimate daughter hang around under the nose of the real wife every day. Isn't this causing trouble for us, the teacher and staff? Listen to my advice and let Daphne move out of our school immediately.

Seeing these messages, I suddenly felt a little angry and tagged Bianca in the group chat.

[Are you the legal representative of my company? Do you know that it is illegal to leak the contract without authorization?]

[Apart from Daniele, only the company's legal department has access to the contract.]

Unexpectedly, Bianca started a voice chat in the group chat.

"You already know you're wrong but still stubborn?"

"Ms. Vaughan, if you still want to keep your job, please handle this matter well. I don't want to see Daphne the next time I go to school to pick up Miguel!"

"By the way, tomorrow is Miguel's birthday. I invite everyone to have a party at my villa!"

I was so angry. They could misunderstand me, but they could not misunderstand my daughter.

However, as soon as I was about to explain, I realized that I had been kicked by the group owner.

I quickly contacted Andrea, asking her to help clarify the matter.

But she just replied lightly,

"Ms. Palmer, didn't I ask you to apologize to Ms. Reitman? Why are you so stubborn not to listen to my advice? Remember to help Daphne go to the kindergarten to complete the withdrawal procedures tomorrow!"

Immediately after, she blocked me.

I was a bit confused, so I immediately brought out my marriage certificate with my husband.

The stamp on it was clearly visible.

I compared to the one Bianca uploaded to the group, which was almost the same as mine.

It was just that she got her marriage certificate two months later than me.

I recalled carefully that day, Daniele had injured his ankle playing basketball and had been lying in bed for a week.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to run out and get a certificate from someone else.

I was still worried, so I called the company secretary and asked her if Daniele had cheated on me.

I brought and introduced this secretary to the company, and she had been in charge of my husband's personal schedule.

But the secretary said to me in a positive tone,

"Lucia, Mr. Lautner is known to be very devoted to his wife and daughter. If even he cheats, there will be no reliable men in this world."

If Daniele did not cheat, then what about Miguel's mother?

Was she the wife and son of Daniele in parallel time and space?

I was getting more and more confused.

I wanted to call my husband immediately to find out what was going on.

But looking at the time difference, it happened to be midnight on his side, and it was not too late for half a day.

The holiday was coming soon, so I took my daughter to a villa by the sea to relax.

I decided to wait until Daniele came back and then asked him about this matter clearly.

Surprisingly, when I drove my daughter to the sea view villa, I ran into Bianca playing on the beach in front of the villa with a dozen children and mothers.

Seeing me appear with my daughter, she looked disdainful.

"I was wondering why some people didn't go through the withdrawal procedures. It turns out they followed me here. What, do you want to apologize to me in person?"

I felt puzzled. "What apology?"

Andrea suddenly came over and pulled me aside.

"Ms. Palmer, Ms. Reitman has already taken us to visit her sea view villa and there are still her wedding photos hanging inside. Don't embarrass yourself here."

"If I were you, I would have taken my daughter out of school and moved to another city. Why would you come here and humiliate yourself?"

I was a little speechless.

"My daughter didn't do anything wrong. Why should she drop out of school?"

"Also, I took my daughter out to relax today. I don't want to argue, please don't provoke me."

Just as my words fell, I was going to take my daughter to the beach villa.

The sea water temperature was just right this season, and my daughter had been talking about it for several days.

There was also a "My Little Pony" kayak that I customized specifically for her in the villa.

But I did not expect that before I took a few steps, I was stopped by a woman.

"This is Ms. Reitman's villa. You were not invited. Why do you want to come in uninvited? You are so shameless!"

I did not understand them.

"This is clearly my villa, when did it become Ms. Reitman's?"

Bianca sneered and said with disdain, "Ms. Palmer, you are such a braggart. Yesterday you said my husband is yours, and now you say my villa is also yours. How can you be so shameless?"

As soon as I finished my words, a dozen mothers surrounded me and started pointing and talking, and Daphne hid behind me in fear.

Just then, Andrea suddenly handed me a phone that was on a call.

I took it. I saw that it was the principal, Elijah Winston.

"Ms. Palmer, your behavior has been too bad and has affected other children. After careful consideration, our kindergarten has decided to expel Daphne. The procedures have been completed, and Daphne will no longer need to come to our kindergarten."

I was totally pissed off.
