Substitute Wife, Genius CEO novel Chapter 292

The woman's fingers trailed teasingly down the man's jaw, lingering on his Adam's apple with a suggestive press. “So, am I prettier, or is your wife?”

Xavier grabbed Lily's hand and pulled her into his arms. “You're the prettiest.”

“Then do you love me or her?”

“I've always loved you. I never loved her.” Xavier pressed Lily's hand against his chest. “Hear that? It's saying it loves you.”

“Mr. Sterling, but you had a son with her.”

“Then I'll have ten with you, is that enough?” The man nipped at the woman's ear, and after a moment of half-hearted resistance, they tumbled together on the screen.

The screen was filled with discarded clothing and the heavy, intimate sounds of their passion.

Julian ran into the control room, drenched in sweat. No matter what they tried, the video wouldn't turn off. Ultimately, he had to cut the main power.

With the video off, the murmurs echoing through the grand hall became deafeningly clear.

“This is insane! Cheating while his wife is recovering from childbirth? Is he even human?”

“The bride looks so elegant and virtuous, but behind closed doors, she's a willing homewrecker. Who would want a daughter-in-law like that? It's a complete disgrace.”

“I heard the bride was a genius since childhood, won tons of awards, and has her own patents. It's a shame her character is garbage. She doesn't deserve the hype.”

“Wait, wasn't Lily his older brother's girlfriend?”

“So she's technically his sister-in-law? Hooking up with your brother's ex? The Sterling family's morals are a joke.”

The Sterling family's reputation was in tatters. It went without saying that for the foreseeable future, this 'wedding of the century' would be the juiciest gossip among the elite.

Not to mention the Sterling Group itself. A CEO cheating on his postpartum wife made him the villain in the court of public opinion.

The company's image and reputation would plummet, causing severe stock turbulence and massive financial losses.

And it was all because of that woman, Lily!

The sheer thought of it turned Carlson's lips purple. His face drained of color as he clutched his chest in agony.

Arthur immediately rushed to support him. “Dad! Dad!”

Carlson fainted from the sheer rage.

The scene descended into total chaos. Xavier leaped off the stage and sprinted to Carlson's side. “Grandpa! Get a doctor!”

The guests in attendance were all powerful elites. If an emergency happened, the Sterling family would be held responsible, which was why a top-tier medical team was stationed on-site.

Doctors shoved their way through the crowd with emergency kits and began working on Carlson.

“Xavier,” Lily whimpered, stepping up beside him.

“Get away! You curse!” Zelda shoved Lily hard.

“Mom,” Lily cried out, sounding deeply hurt.
