Chapter 89: Meeting His Parents for the First Time

"Ethan Montgomery couldn't help but burst into laughter, a sound rich with genuine amusement. 

He'd never seen her quite like this before—her innocence and bashfulness reminiscent of a young girl sneaking around for a secret date with her boyfriend in middle school. 

"What's so funny?" Avery Miller frowned, her annoyance palpable. 

Why did he always seem to find amusement at her expense? 

"The thought of having a wife who could be mistaken for a middle schooler," Ethan said, his eyes twinkling with mirth. 

Avery's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, then bloomed with joy. 

He was acknowledging her as his wife! 

Despite his previous declaration on the villa's path—that she was his only legal wife—it was supposed to be just a three-year contract. 

After that, or possibly even before it ended, he could easily cast her aside.
