My Wife is a Sassy Queen

The next four months went by uneventfully, except for Liam being missing for that long and the Preston family members trying and failing to get any benefits from Mariana.

Finally, a series of good news came one after the other.

Liliana was pregnant. The couple had wanted to keep it a secret until the first trimester ended well. Then when the doctor confirmed everything was alright, they made the big announcement to their friends and family members.

Liam came back after completing two different massive projects.

He had ended Bronsson Mcclory’s illegal business completely and had apprehended him.

Jeffery Cruise kept Mcclory in strict custody until the courts sentenced him to life imprisonment. Then he was sent to a high-security prison that held long-term inmates.

Mcclory’s entire business, all networks, all partners and associates, clientele – the police had nabbed all of them.

Consequently, Liam worked with several different authorities to arrest everyone from the criminal underground and put them on the farm as per Leonardo’s proposal.

Leena was amongst them. She couldn’t believe that the green boy had outsmarted her. He had used her to gather intelligence when she was smug about trapping him.

Moreover, it seemed the police had rescued Jonas’s father months back. Jonas cried buckets and left P city with his father.

On the other hand, Leonardo had started a partnership on a long-term project with Mrs. Cadewell and Miss Jessica.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Mariana was doing well in her company. James’s help and guidance helped her accelerate much more quickly.

Jennifer started dating Dr. Cox junior. Dr. Cox was Petrova’s family doctor, and his son was taking over the practice from his father, who would be on for consulting only.

Jennifer was his classmate in high school, and during the high school reunion, they became friends and then started dating.

Liliana had yet to tell Jennifer about her brother’s actions. She did not know how to broach the topic, so she let Leonardo handle it.

Jennifer was surprised that Liliana had sponsored her despite always knowing who her mother was. She quickly called her, and the two friends decided not to bear the burden and grudges of the previous generation.

Jennifer told her father what her brother had done. Her father pointed out that her mother was the root of it all.

Patrick wouldn’t see reason until her mother stopped her coddling and manipulation.

Leonardo proposed a solution. He went to visit Jennifer’s mother. No one knows what he told her, but she became a recluse and stopped talking to everyone – including Patrick.

Nonetheless, it was an eye-opener for Patrick as he realized how close he was to getting into life imprisonment for attempted murder. It woke him up, and he tried to change his ways.

On the other hand, Mariana was getting along very well with Liam’s grandma. She learned a lot from the old lady. She was wise and tended to provide a unique perspective on everyday life.

Kyle finally had a stable family situation that he loved.

However, the trouble in paradise was Mariana’s damaged uterus. She was unable to carry a child to term.

She decided to have a child with Liam via a surrogate.

Liam, Mariana, Jacob, and James had an extensive discussion and ended up with an unusual solution.

They would have two surrogate children.

A Preston with Mariana and Liam’s genes! Since they were married, they needed to show something about it.

Jacob Tanner’s child using a sample from a random donor.

Besides, Jacob also planned to adopt another child.

James and Jacob became close friends when they lived at Liam and Mariana’s place.

It was an unusual setting, but Grandma Preston allowed it. She lived with them and witnessed their liveliness, friendship, and boundaries.

One day James asked Jonathan out for a drink. Instead of going out, they went to James’s flat, which had been collecting dust for months, and ordered food and drinks.

“What’s wrong with you now?” Jonathan asked after half a bottle of wine.

Before that, they talked about their business and other things.

James replied in a low voice. “I found something yesterday.”

Jonathan probed, “Which is?”

James closed his eyes and exhaled heavily before speaking, “Jacob is Mariana’s first kiss.”

“Are you kidding me?”

Jonathan was equally angry and embarrassed.

‘He started sleeping around when he was 17. What is wrong with him?’
