Chapter 209: Chapter 209: The Little Red Marriage Certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau
Upon hearing this question, Fiona Vaughn’s body suddenly stiffened.
The... child in her belly?
Ha, where did the child come from, it’s just a means to deceive Tyson Law into marrying her!
——She has sacrificed so much for Tyson Law, and there’s no turning back now!
It’s fine to bear the temporary stigma of being ’the other woman,’ but if she can’t even step into the Law Family, that would be a real joke!
Whether it’s the shares of the Radiant Group or the various villas and shops of the Vaughn Family, how could she possibly hand them over to that little bastard Cecilia Vaughn!
Ever since Cecilia Vaughn disrupted the engagement banquet, the invitation from the top fashion magazine "My Beloved" fell through, and Editor Rosie outright refused to work with a scandalous artist.
And Director Warner, that smiling tiger, had originally agreed to make her the leading lady, but then suddenly insisted on inserting someone else, altering her role to be worse than a supporting female role. How could she continue? She could only break the contract on her own accord!
All these predicaments were caused by Cecilia Vaughn!
How could she endure this!
...
Fiona Vaughn’s eyes flashed, and she instinctively touched her flat abdomen.
"Tyson, are you doubting me? The doctor’s authentication report is still available, do you want me to take it out and show you?"
She chose Dawnlight Private Hospital for a reason; Gregory Vaughn had already arranged a doctor for her, so she had nothing to fear from Tyson Law’s questioning.
In any case, with a fake pregnancy, "carrying" a child doesn’t necessarily mean one has to give birth to it. Mid-term miscarriage, hasn’t the news covered fewer such incidents?
When the time comes, just blame Cecilia Vaughn for the miscarriage!
...
Fiona Vaughn decided, tears of grievance suddenly welling up in her eyes.
Tyson Law looked at Fiona Vaughn’s pitiful appearance and felt a pang of guilt in his heart.
"Fiona, how could I doubt you..."
"It’s just... you have always been extremely careful about contraception when we’re together. I thought... you didn’t want our child for the sake of your career."
In the past, Fiona Vaughn would naturally choose to develop her career!
But now, Fiona Vaughn suddenly realized that if she didn’t find a way to keep the ever-affectionate Second Young Master Law by her side, she might never recover!
Fiona Vaughn’s eyes showed a hint of malice; she bit her lip and when she looked back at Tyson Law, she portrayed vulnerability with teary eyes.
"Tyson, I’ve just realized how important you are, I can’t leave you..."
After a light sob, Fiona Vaughn leaned her pretty face against the man’s shoulder, her tear-streaked eyes made her appear like a lovely, delicate, and pitiable mimosa in the rain, evoking compassion.
"Tyson, I want to give birth to this child and tell the world how happy our little baby is."
While Fiona Vaughn spoke, she guided Tyson Law’s hand towards her belly, as if wanting him to feel the existence of the supposed little life.
"Tyson, touch him; the baby is surely happy."
Fiona Vaughn lied without breaking a sweat, her expression glowing with maternal sanctuary, almost making Tyson Law feel an inexplicable guilt.
He slowly bowed his head, somewhat disbelievingly stroked Fiona Vaughn’s slender, smooth abdomen.
——Here, a child was being nurtured, his and Fiona’s child!
Previously wanting a baby with Fiona Vaughn, now that the dream was coming true, it felt somewhat unreal and dreamlike.
The joy of becoming a father for the first time overwhelmed his reason, even dispelling his coldness towards Fiona Vaughn after the engagement banquet.
"Fiona... our child! We have a child now!" The more Tyson Law thought about it, the more excited he became, unable to stop himself from hugging Fiona Vaughn, wishing he could spin her around two or three times.
Fiona Vaughn gave a charming smile. She gazed at Tyson Law’s joyous expression, knowing she had made the right move with her fake pregnancy.
"Hold gently, don’t scare the baby."
Fiona started with a radiant smile, but mid-sentence, she fell into silence, enveloped by deep melancholy.
"Tyson, your mother has recently been unkind to me, even wanting to call off our engagement... But, but I really don’t want the baby to be born without a name and standing; he’s a child of the Law family, your child..."
Fiona Vaughn played on emotions and appealed to reason, using the banner of the child to quickly move Tyson Law.
He was also an illegitimate child, recognized as the Second Young Master Law only after his mother married into the Law Family.
Though never wanting for food, clothing, and housing before, legitimacy always eluded him.
Fiona is right... If they don’t marry, giving her the title of the Second Young Madam of the Law family, how can they provide a complete home for the child?
Thinking of this, Tyson Law suddenly understood what he should do!
He gazed deeply at Fiona Vaughn, his voice laden with emotion.
"Fiona, will you marry me, be my wife?..."
Fiona Vaughn immediately hugged Tyson Law tightly, tears streaming uncontrollably as she cried out.
"I do, I do!"
Fiona Vaughn wiped away her tears and quickly looked up, her eyes filled with a nearly humble plea and sincerity.
"Then Tyson, let’s go get the certificate first thing tomorrow morning, okay?"
"I want to settle things as soon as possible; I could wait before, but now I’m afraid Auntie will obstruct our marriage. I really love you and our child..."
Tyson Law hesitated, with a look of doubt.
"Fiona... but my mother she..."
Fiona Vaughn gave a sorrowful smile, choking up once more.
"I want to give the baby a complete home... please, Tyson?"
With the trump card of ’for the child’s sake,’ she refused to believe Tyson Law wouldn’t take the bait!
Sure enough, Tyson Law finally gritted his teeth and agreed!
...
Early the next morning, fearing Tyson Law would change his mind, Fiona Vaughn immediately dragged him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their certificate.
Holding the two red little books, the big stone in Fiona Vaughn’s heart finally settled, and she excitedly hugged Tyson Law, a quick flash of triumphant delight crossing her watery eyes.
——She finally became the legitimate Young Madam of the Law’s Second Young Master!
After getting the certificate, as Tyson Law saw Fiona Vaughn’s bright and charming smile, his heart became restless for some reason.
"Fiona, accompany me to see my mother. I’m really afraid getting the certificate so rashly and hiding it from her will make her angry. Now there’s a child, she won’t hold it against you..."
Fiona Vaughn cursed Tyson Law as a mama’s boy inwardly, yet she had no choice but to maintain a dignified smile outwardly.
"Tyson, your mother is still angry, let’s visit another time and buy her some favorite gifts, okay?"
The child was just a ruse; now that the certificate was in hand, who would want to meet that old hag Mabel Keaton!
Fiona Vaughn had carefully planned, yet she and Tyson Law had just stepped out of the Civil Affairs Bureau when a tall, graceful figure angrily approached!
