My Wife Came Home Pregnant After Her Vacation — Then I Discovered Why She Expected Me to Raise Another Man’s Child

Chapter 5

Marcus began investigating Claire’s vacation.

Not her private life.

The timeline.

Travel records.

Hotel bookings.

Medical appointments.

Everything legal.

The results were disturbing.

Claire had booked a private villa in Santorini.

But the hotel record showed someone else had stayed there with her.

A man.

Name:

Julian Cross.

A businessman I recognized.

He had recently been involved in a major financial dispute with my company.

I stared at the report.

“She knows him.”

Marcus nodded.

“More than that.”

He gave me another document.

Julian had significant debt.

He had been sued by several investors.

Then came the part that made everything clear.

Two weeks before Claire’s vacation, Julian had transferred a large amount of money to an account controlled by Claire’s sister.

My hands tightened.

“Why?”

Marcus continued.

“Because Julian believed you were planning to buy his company.”

I understood.

Claire’s pregnancy had appeared at exactly the right time.

Julian was financially desperate.

I had assets.

And Claire was my wife.

If she could make me legally responsible for the child, she could potentially secure access to my estate.

But there was something else.

The financial records showed Claire had also contacted an attorney about my life insurance.

Three weeks before telling me she was pregnant.

This was no longer an affair.

It was financial planning.

They were trying to trap me.

Marcus looked at me.

“You need to be careful.”

“I know.”

“What happens next?”

I stared at the documents.

“I let them think the plan is working.”

Marcus smiled.

“Why?”

“Because I want them to reveal everything.”
