Chapter 239 - Someone Else\'s Husband
"He lied to you or kept you in the dark, Jennifer. Javier has all the rights to marry Emily and surely, he will do that."
Austin didn\'t hide the fact anymore. His eyes looked straight into hers, to find them all lost in the deep turmoil of emotions. Steadily, her face paled up immediately after those words entered her mind.
"P..polygamy.. here?" She managed to utter those words in her head, to get a nod from Austin\'s side. "You are correct. This state allows polygamy unlike yours..."
Automatically, Jennifer clutched the core of the chair to stand with the help of the same. Her mind almost lost its strength to work as she could sense undergoing through malfunctioning. \'But he never told me anything like this?\'
Was she cheated to get into this marriage? But it was her demand and offer to get into one without even discussing anything further. She had no idea about the rules and laws of the state and now, the guilt was already springing in her heart like poison.
"N..no.. Javier won\'t do.. that with me..\'\' What has she done wrong to be in this endgame? Or was this all a lie made up with her?
Hannah came in her support to help her sit on the chair when she rubbed Jennifer\'s cold hands, "Jen.? Take a deep breath. Jennifer.."
Witnessing her condition becoming worse, Hannah immediately panicked a lot. Uneasiness started bubbling up in her stomach with no idea how to bring Jennifer out of this shock.
"Jennifer. My dear, take a deep breath. deep.." whispering in her ears, somehow Jennifer followed her instructions and took deep and long breaths to make herself stable in emotions.
Within a few minutes, Jennifer was once again breathing normally and managed her uneven breaths too. Yet her heart was a mess, similar to how her mind wasn\'t able to proceed with what actually happened with her last night?
She married a man who is going to have an engagement tomorrow. \'Didn\'t he marry me so that he doesn\'t need to marry Emily?\' Was she cuckold? It was hard to say even a single thing at this point.
"Is.. Is.. it written anywhere..?" Jennifer asked with disbelief written all over her face. Averting her gaze, towards Austin, "Is it written somewhere that he has all the rights to marry someone else now?"
Her eyes were filled with anger, or to be in-depth, betray was the correct word to define her feelings. At this point, fury took over her when recalled all the love confessions that Javier made to her.
Without breaking eye contact, Austin nodded his head. Handing her the contact in her hand, he spoke, "Flip to the fourth page. That law is even written legally."
As per his say, she came on that page to read the law and her eyes never tore from what she read. It was written that she is the first wife, not his sole wife…
"N..No.. he can\'t do that! Maybe this is all just… false? Probably polygamy was practiced earlier?" Jennifer refused to accept that something like this will take place at this period of time.
"I\'m sorry Jennifer but this is all true. If you don\'t believe me, let me ask you one question. Why are the preparations still ongoing in the entire villa? Why hasn\'t Javier told anyone about your both\' marriage to anyone till yet?"
His question was at the right point which placed her heart, "W..we married late last night. Maybe? he.. never got the time to talk with his father and brother.."
This brought a scoff on Austin\'s face when he tried to keep his mouth shut and kept his hand over Jennifer\'s hand, "If that was the case, I believe that no man will try to hide his marriage and wife."
"We are already quite early in the morning but my eyes never found you, dear husband. Either down or anywhere else. Where did he go early in the morning?" Jennifer wanted to safeguard Javier but she found no excuse.
She was damn nervous and anxiousness filled her terror heart to realize that Javier wasn\'t even here anymore. "H..he will be back at night at least..!"
"Stop it, Jennifer. at least stop now. You are actually safeguarding him!? He is no one else but a bastard who actually played with your feelings!" Austin had enough of this. Stepping? back on his steps, he only stares at Jennifer in pity, "You might love him but he used you…"
"Austin… How can Jennifer be at fault? Yes, she rushed into this marriage but as I told you, some things are beyond control in love.." Hannah expressed herself and came in support of her when Austin\'s shock was already strong enough to make Jennifer feel the pieces of her heart.
"Yes, love is bki3nd. But acting dumb in love is also one the finest crime which she committed. You called me here to take you back, yet you married the one of the Johnson... really Jennifer?"
While Hannah and Austin defend their own opinion on this state, Jennifer stood there in silence with her head low and didn\'t utter a single word anymore.
With the news revolving in her heart, she can feel something crawling under her skin. It was adding to the stress in her mind which only made her slightly shiver. \'Javier, so does that mean you\'re going to keep me as the first wife and Emily as the second?\'
She was sure about this but her thought of sharing her husband with someone had already shattered her little bit of hope.
But at the same time, deep down her soul was still taking Javier\'s side, telling her to not take Javier as the wrong person. "He will.. come back at night and I will be waiting for him till then."
"Jennifer.." Hannah mumbled her name in a whisper to see her friend\'s face shaped nothing but pale.
Yet, all Jennifer did was linger her eyes to stare at her best friend with the determination that shined along the way.
"I know my husband very well. I will clear everything when he comes back tonight. Something is fishy and I\'m sure. As I will not let my husband.. be someone else \'s husband too.."
