My Husband Is A Gary Stu novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483 She Destroyed His Life Over in a high-end condominium in Xedells, Armand, Cooper, Samantha, and three other people were seated on couches in an exquisite living room. An elderly woman with graying hair around the temples and a hunched back stood next to one of the couches, recounting to the others what had happened over two decades ago. Harriet only had one daughter—Samantha—and she loved her dearly. Since Zachary had no achievements to speak of at the time, Harriet had been unwilling to let Samantha marry him because she was worried her daughter would have to endure many hardships. Hence, she deliberately interfered and broke the couple up.

Taking Samantha’s prematurely-born baby, she struck a deal with Zachary. He was not allowed to step foot in Xedells again, and he had to marry another woman. Misled by Harriet into believing that Zachary had abandoned her, Samantha’s deep love for him morphed into an intense hatred, and she had someone wipe out the Sutton family. Samantha fell into a daze after hearing the cold, hard truth from the lips of an elderly housekeeper who had worked for Harriet for many years. As she stared at Cooper, who sat opposite her, she could detect some resemblance in his deep-set eyes and facial features to her former lover. What have I done? Not only did I kill the man I loved, but in the name of revenge, I also manipulated my own son like a pawn for the past twenty years. “Mom, you’ve caused me so much misery…” Samantha broke down and started sobbing bitterly. As a daughter of the Faulkner family, I’ve never disobeyed my parents. All this while, I’ve stood by my mother. But in the end, the very person I loved and respected the most was the one who ruined my happiness! But despite her tears, meltdown, and remorse, Cooper was unmoved.

His gaze was icy as he pushed a cup of coffee toward Samantha. “There were more than ten members of the Sutton family, and all of them were innocent. If one commits murder, one must pay with their life.” Although he knew that Harriet was the one indirectly behind the tragedy, Samantha was still the one who instigated the fire. The latter was also the one who had practically destroyed his life. I can’t let Dad die in vain. Although Samantha was devastated upon learning the truth, she did not fear death. Instead, she merely gazed at Cooper with tears in her eyes. He’s my son. It has taken a long time for us to be finally reunited. “Can you give me another hour?” she asked Cooper in a hoarse voice. After a brief silence, he answered, “Very well.” Samantha walked over to the window to make a phone call, and around half an hour later, three lawyers in suits arrived at the apartment with the documents she had requested. After signing the documents, she passed them to Cooper and explained, “These are the assets under my name and all of the company’s shares I hold…” Cooper did not refuse. Instead, he signed his name on all the documents. As Samantha gazed at Cooper’s handsome face, it felt as if Zachary was standing in front of her.

Tears began streaming down her face subconsciously. She said, “I know it’s meaningless to say anything at this point, but could I ask that you bury me with your father? It doesn’t matter even if my name isn’t on the headstone…” Seeing how humbly and pitifully she pleaded, Cooper finally relented. He did not say anything, but he nodded in response. “Thank you.” Samantha’s shoulders sagged in relief. It’s enough for me to be buried with Zachary so I can stay by his side. I couldn’t ask for anything more. Armand had been silent up until then, but at that moment, he suddenly pushed a photo in front of Samantha. “Aunt Samantha, do you know this lady?” Samantha lowered her head and studied the photo that was yellowed with age. “I think I saw her dining with your father when I was having a meal at a restaurant…” After pausing to recall her memories, she continued, “I remember a conversation with my mother a long time ago where she mentioned that your father had fallen for someone. I suppose it must be the lady in this photo. She said my father didn’t like that the lady came from a poor family…” Among his sons, Dad thought the most highly of Cesar.

He decided very early on that Cesar would be his successor. The only way for such a prominent family like ours to expand and strengthen our status was through marriage, leveraging the other party’s connections and resources. To benefit our family, the woman Cesar wanted to marry had to have a similar family background. Hence, Dad was extremely displeased when he found out Cesar was secretly dating someone and, later on, personally chose a wife for him.
