Chapter 11. Who?
JENNYFER ESTERANDES.This time, Jackson closed the marriage book and rubbed his eyes, trying to see more clearly. There was no way his perfectly fine eyes were misreading it, right? He blinked again and decided to read the husband’s name written in the book before moving on to the wife’s name.JACKSON RAKSA HETHAWEY.Yes. That was indeed his real name, exactly as stated on his ID card.Once more, Jackson looked at the name of the woman written beside his—JENNYFER ESTERANDES!He had read it multiple times. There was no mistake!Jackson froze, his eyes fixed on the name that should have belonged to his sister-in-law. But now, he was starting to doubt—was his wife’s real name truly Brielle, or Jennyfer?Quickly, Jackson grabbed the green marriage book meant for the wife and checked it for consistency. It was the same. The name written there was Jennyfer Esterandes!Holding both books tightly, Jackson stormed out of Brielle’s luxurious bedroom. His chest felt like it was about to stop be
Chapter 12. Turning the Insult Around
“Hm,” Jennyfer replied softly.Jackson was puzzled by how calm and composed she looked, even though he was about to take her ID card with him.“Aren’t you afraid I might use your ID for something, Jenny?”“Use it? What do you mean?”“As… collateral for a loan, maybe?”Jennyfer chuckled lightly. “There’s no way my brother-in-law would do something like that. Besides, I don’t have money, I don’t have property, and I don’t own anything luxurious. There’s nothing to take advantage of.”Jackson fell silent. Hearing how completely she trusted him stirred something warm inside his chest—something he hadn’t felt in a long time.“Hehe. Thanks for trusting me that much. I’ll borrow it for a bit, okay?”“Mm,” Jennyfer hummed in response and walked away toward her sewing room.Jackson went straight into his bedroom, took the two marriage books out of his pocket, and opened them. He began comparing every detail written in the marriage certificate with the information on Jennyfer’s ID card.His eye
Chapter 13. The Night of Proof
The glass door had already been opened the moment the staff saw the luxurious car parked in front of their building. But as soon as they caught sight of Jackson and Jennyfer’s shabby clothes, the two employees who had eagerly opened the door earlier immediately frowned and snapped at them.“We’re here,” Jackson replied curtly, continuing to stride forward and step into the luxurious, air-conditioned room.“Wait! What time is your appointment, and under whose name? Don’t you dare lie! People like you don’t belong in a high-class salon like this!”Jackson stopped in his tracks. The anger inside his chest made his jaw clench tightly again. He truly pitied the kind of world where people were always judged by their outward appearance.Sure, they looked neat and smelled good—but did they even realize that they were just employees, mere workers, in this very place?Jennyfer turned to look at Jackson, her brother-in-law of the past two years.There wasn’t a hint of anger or offense on her fac
Chapter 14. The Surprise
Jacob, who had just arrived, glanced at the long table beside Grandma Hima’s seat. There lay piles of gifts brought earlier by those who had come before him—the children, their spouses, and even some of the grandchildren’s partners.There were so many large velvet boxes on the table, each of them already opened on Grandma Hima’s orders. The contents sparkled under the warm light—sets of gold jewelry, diamond necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings. One even contained a rare jade tea set.“Good evening, Grandma. Please accept this gift. I bought it with all my heart, even though it was quite expensive,” Jacob said loudly and confidently.But just as he spoke, everyone’s attention suddenly shifted. The sound of footsteps echoed from a distance.“Who could that be? Isn’t everyone already here?” Grandma Hima squinted her aging eyes, trying to get a better look at the figures approaching from afar.Everyone else squinted too—perhaps a sign that most of them were now suffering from weaken
Chapter 15. A Trash Gift?!
All this time, Jackson had only been known as the cleaner and gardener of the Esterandes family — and all of that, of course, was because of Madam Ester’s own story.Everyone had been utterly confused back then when Grandpa Jakara suddenly asked Andreas’s daughter to marry Jackson.Andreas, being the eldest son of Grandpa Jakara, had no choice but to accept. That alone was enough to make Madam Ester furious — especially after learning that Grandpa Jakara had asked her precious and proud eldest daughter to marry a homeless man he had found by chance — a man who had merely saved him from an accident.Suddenly, Jackson clapped his hands twice — sharply. In an instant, two bodyguards entered the grand hall, carrying a chest measuring about 40 by 60 centimeters, and around 10 centimeters thick.Silence.When the two men who brought the chest finally left, a thunderous burst of laughter filled the air once again.“Oh my, Jackson! If you couldn’t afford a gift, you didn’t have to bring this
Chapter 16. A Jewel for Whom?
Silence. Everyone froze, each face showing a different expression. The curiosity that hung in the air wasn’t just in Grandma Hima’s mind—it was shared by everyone inside that grand hall.“Thank you for giving me permission, Grandma.”Jackson smiled calmly, then began opening the silver box. The moment its lid lifted, everyone instinctively swallowed hard—their eyes blinking several times in disbelief.Brielle, standing not far from where Jackson was, curved her lips into a confident smile. Her heart pounded fast, imagining the moment her husband would place that enormous, shimmering light-blue gem necklace around her smooth, graceful neck.“Jackson! May I take a look at that magnificent jewel?”Grandma Hima’s question broke the stunned silence that filled the room.“Of course, Grandma.”Jackson carefully moved aside the golden tea set box in front of Grandma Hima and replaced it with the open silver case, revealing what lay within.One second. Two seconds. Three full minutes passed. G
Chapter 17. Unshaken
No one dared to utter that old, cruel nickname—cheap beggar—that Madam Ester had so often used for Jackson. The woman who once looked down on him was now speechless, her eyes flickering with disbelief.“What are you doing here? Jennyfer is my daughter, so you have no right to interfere in our family matters. Get out of this room right now!”But this time, her eyes trembled—hesitating. Yes, it seemed both Madam Ester and Brielle were shaken tonight. Something in them changed the moment this extraordinary evening unfolded—the night that turned the life of the once-broken Jackson upside down.“Because she is Jennyfer Esterandes. That means I have every right to be here, Mother-in-law.”Jackson stepped forward, his voice deep and full of weight. He repeated that name again—his wife’s name as written on the marriage certificate—each syllable trembling with restrained emotion, as if to remind everyone in the room of a truth they had long denied.Jennyfer, whose body and heart still ached, f
Chapter 18. Don’t Touch Her!
If she accepted help from her brother-in-law, her sister would surely be offended—jealous, even. And her mother? Tomorrow, she might not even get lunch… or breakfast, for that matter.“Don’t let anyone touch Jenny’s skin—even a scratch! Not even a single strand of her hair! Believe me, if anyone dares, I’ll report it as an assault tonight!”Jackson spoke in a calm but commanding tone as he turned and left Jennyfer’s room, leaving behind a warning sharp enough to keep anyone at bay.Madam Ester swallowed hard. She couldn’t believe that the son-in-law she had belittled and humiliated for years now stood tall—dignified and commanding, exuding a quiet nobility that made her feel small. Even the grand gift Jacob had given Grandma Hima earlier seemed meaningless compared to the one Jackson had presented.And now? Shouldn’t it have been Brielle who received that magnificent blue diamond necklace? Why did it end up around Jennyfer’s neck instead? Brielle’s chest burned with envy and confusion
Chapter 19. A Little Forceful
Realizing that Jackson was already standing and about to turn to leave, Brielle quickly followed, walking out as well. She waited for him outside, her mind already brewing new plans.Jackson closed Jennyfer’s bedroom door and immediately walked toward his own. He pulled it open and was about to shut it again when—“Dear?! Brielle wants to talk!”“Talk about what? It’s late. Let’s talk tomorrow.”“But I have to talk about it tonight. Come on, Dear, stay with Brielle in the room.”“You’ve got legs, don’t you? You can walk just fine. Go to your own room now. I’m tired and I want to rest. Good night.”With that, Jackson shut the door firmly, making Brielle’s hand jerk back as it failed to hold the doorknob.Brielle frowned deeply. This was the first time Jackson had ever treated her this way. She missed his gentleness, his attention—everything she had enjoyed for the past two years. And most of all, she needed to find a way to get that priceless blue diamond necklace.-In the middle of t
Chapter 20. Fearless!
At her residence, Madam Ester, who had just woken up and was ready for breakfast, frowned in irritation. She lifted the food covers, then checked the pots and pans one by one.Empty. Everything was empty. The kitchen looked untouched, as if no one had done a single thing since morning.Has Jenny not woken up yet? She hasn’t made breakfast for me?! How dare she?!Madam Ester stormed out of the dining room.“Mom, where are you going?”Brielle, who was just about to have her breakfast, looked up in confusion as her mother marched past.“To cut off Jenny’s ears! How dare that brat! Can you believe it? She hasn’t made breakfast for us! She’s probably still sleeping soundly!”“You’re kidding, right? Seriously?!”Brielle’s jaw dropped in disbelief—and hunger.Clack! Bang!The door flew open and slammed hard against the wall.“What?! Where is that wretched girl?!”Brielle froze. Anger flashed in her eyes as a thought crossed her mind—Jenny must be in Jackson’s room. Trying to steal him from m
