Chapter 1699
Erica, with teary eyes, looked at Larkin and complained, “It’s way too hot. I could use a cold drink!”
Larkin gave her a soft smile and replied, “You can’t have that, love.”
Enca hadn’t always taken good care of herself and her health was in a pretty bad shape. Larkin was helping her to
get better. She loved icy stuff and all sorts of snacks, which totally messed up her stomach. When it acted up, the
pain was unbearable.
After they got hitched, the only things Larkin ever restrained her were cold food and late nights.
“Hmph!” Erica was already expecting a ‘no’ from Larkin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe held onto Larkin’s fingers, making a noise of annoyance, “Let’s go home, the sun is killing mel
As she turned around, her face lit up with happiness.
Meanwhile, the chatter about Larkin was still going strong.
“Does anyone know why Larkin, at 23, suddenly decided to abandon his identity as a monk? I’m dying of curiosity,
spill the beans!”
“Maybe he broke some church rule and got kicked out.”
“Stop spreading nonsense! I’ve seen you badmouth Mr. Carter everywhere. What’s your beef with him?”
Looks like another internet war is brewing.
Then, a well-known gossip account dropped a bombshell, “Just got the juice from a reliable source. Ms. Lawrence’s
father actually wanted her to marry Mr. Carter’s nephew a couple of years ago! Fast forward to now, Ms. Lawrence
ended up marrying Larkin, making her previous potential husband her nephew-in-law.”
The news sparked an instant buzz.
“I thought this was a pure love story. Turns out, it’s a forbidden romance!”
“OMG, news these days is just too crazy!”
The account then posted a screenshot of his conversation with the unnamed source, but hid their profile picture.
The source said in the chat, “Larkin fell in love to Erica the moment he saw her at his house for the meeting with his
nephew. As far as I know, he was the one who sabotaged the engagement. The next year, Larkin abandoned his
identity as a monk. No one knows how he and Erica got together, but they did and got married” Although the words
in the chat were simple, they were all pretty provocative, stirring the pot and igniting a new round of discussion.
“So, while Erica was with Jacob, she already had Larkin as her alternative option? Then she has no right to blame
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJacob, they were both playing each other, weren’t they?”
“If this news is true, it’s mind-blowing! A monk falling for his nephew’s fiancee and snatched her?”
“Hold up! I’m confused. How did she become his nephew’s fiancee? Wasn’t Erica dating Jacob at that time? Was
she playing both sides?”
“There are two that we know of. God knows how many more there could be! Maybe her sister wasn’t wrong after
all, just didn’t have solid proof. That’s why she framed Erica!”
The internet was abuzz with speculation, and the malicious conjectures about Erica and Larkin kept piling up, almost
getting out of hand.
There were even loads of posts with the hashtag “FeelingUnfairForJacob”.
The next morning. Erica posted a statement to clear the air.
