She could not wait to see her child who was induced and stolen from her.
She imagined the child’s face. What would she look like?
She had to be extremely adorable.
Despite her hatred toward Kendrick, she could not deny that he had extremely good looks. She looked pretty decent as well. As such, their child would not look too bad with their genes combined.
However, Niamh did not expect that Kendrick knew that the child was alive.
Did he know that the child was still alive at that time?
If so, what did he spread in front of her at the cemetery?
His cruel and tyrannical behavior was still replaying in her mind. He had not looked like he was pretending.
What was going on?
Niamh fell asleep with those questions in her head.
The next day.
She was woken up by the ringtone of her phone in her slumber.
Felipe’s voice was deep and heavy with sleep. He greeted her and invited her to go to Waldburg Corporation for a board meeting with him.
Niamh agreed. Before leaving, she called Kendrick, but the call did not go through. She then messaged him and reminded him to bring the child to her.
After a while, Niamh arrived at Waldburg Corporation. However, she saw a lot of journalists at the entrance.
In the crowd, Niamh saw Kendrick who was being surrounded.
He was tall, so he stood out from the crowd. His breathtaking face was also glowing, so it was difficult for people not to notice him.
He was wearing a black suit, looking frigid but elegant. His narrow eyes were icy and emotionless. However, they still looked alluring.
Niamh was surprised. She did not expect him to face the press with so much confidence.
She looked at him and walked over slowly. Then, she heard Kendrick speaking calmly to the journalists and the cameras, “The owner of Waldburg Corporation is still the same. It’s just temporarily handed to my uncle, Felipe Waldburg. It still belongs to the Waldburgs.”
He was calm as he utterly played down the fact that he had been stripped of everything.
Then, Kendrick smiled. “I don’t have anything to say about the statements about my fall from grace and dire straits online. Rumors will stop being spread when heard by the wise men.”
He was still treating this like it was nothing. He did not look frightened or disturbed at all.
“Mr. Waldburg, recently Nevaeh Delgado was charged with two murders that happened a few years ago. She’s the love of your life, so do you plan to hire a defense lawyer for her?”
“I heard that after Nevaeh Delgado was involved with the attempted murder, you never went to visit her again. Even though Nevaeh has done a lot of bad things, she still gave birth to a son for you and stuck with you for so many years. A lot of people online are calling you heartless, so what is your response to this?”
Kendrick’s gaze became grim when he was faced with the questions from the journalists. “Nevaeh Delgado has killed people, so she must be punished in accordance with the law. I was entangled with her before, but I’ve never liked her, let alone loved her,” he said. Suddenly, his eyes softened as if they had been caressed by the spring breeze. His eyes were glued on Niamh who was standing in the crowd.
“This entire time, there has only been one woman in my heart. She’s my wife, Niamh Delgado. No, her real name is actually Eveline Montgomery.”
After Kendrick finished saying that, the crowd drew a sharp, astonished breath.
Back then during the press conference of Montgomery Enterprise, they finally knew that Niamh was the true Miss Montgomery. They were also shocked at first, but they were more surprised by what Kendrick had said now.
Who did not know that the young master of the richest family in Glendale was in love with Nevaeh Delgado? Why did it suddenly become Niamh Delgado now?
Niamh should be the woman he despised the most.
“Mr. Waldburg, you mean that you’ve always been in love with your ex-wife, Niamh Delgado, and not Nevaeh Delgado?” a journalist broke the silence and questioned.
“You got half of it right,” Kendrick replied. He stared at Niamh with tenderness in his eyes. “I don’t have an ex-wife because this whole time, I’ve only had one wife.”
The journalists were stumped for words. “But Mr. Waldburg, you divorced Niamh Delgado three years ago…”
“There were indeed some contradictions and unhappiness between us, but I can tell you with certainty that she’s still my legally wedded wife.”
“…”
“…”
The journalists looked at each other, evidently confused by Kendrick’s answer.
Niamh was calm and unperturbed. However, at this moment, she was slightly moved.
She saw the confidence in Kendrick’s eyes and her heart started beating faster all of a sudden.
‘What did he say?
‘Did he just say that I’m still his legally wedded wife?’
Back then, he was the one who had forced her to sign the papers. How could she still be his legally wedded wife?
The strange atmosphere continued for a while. The journalist from just now asked cautiously, “Mr. Waldburg, even if that’s the case, we hope that you can restrain your grief because Niamh Delgado passed away three years ago. I’m afraid—”
“I think you’ve made a mistake.” Kendrick interrupted the journalist. “My wife’s alive and well.”
What?
The crowd was all taken aback. Then, they saw Kendrick walking away.
The journalists and onlookers around him tactfully made way for him.
They looked over to where Kendrick was looking and they saw Niamh standing in a distance.
Her figure was tall and slender while her face was graceful and gorgeous. If one remembered it correctly, this was how Niamh used to look.
However, she did not look as casual and simple like she did before. Not only did she look classier now, but she also had the air of a monarch around her.
The journalists knew that face too. Was she not the founder and designer of Miss L.ady, Vera Quinn?
Was Vera Quinn Niamh Delgado?
This conclusion appeared in everyone’s brains immediately.
After Niamh sensed something was wrong, it was too late for her to run away as Kendrick had already approached her.
His gaze was gentle while his tone was as soft as the spring breeze. “Niamh, I was wrong. I wronged you and made you suffer so much. I know it’s difficult for me to get your forgiveness, but I hope that you’ll still give me another chance to love you.”
The journalists swarmed toward her after they heard what Kendrick said. “Miss Vera, are you really Niamh Delgado?”
“I heard you passed away after you were diagnosed with a fatal illness. How did you come back safe and sound?”
“Nevaeh Delgado stole your identity and took everything that was supposed to be yours. What do you think of this?”
“Did you not divorce Mr. Waldburg? If so, will you forgive Mr. Waldburg?”
Niamh felt that the sudden wave of questions was too noisy.
Under the impatient gazes of everyone, she looked into Kendrick’s expectant eyes while remaining calm and undaunted.
“Your words were so touching, Mr. Waldburg. However, it’s too bad that I’m not Niamh Delgado.” She denied it. Then, she chuckled sarcastically. “Even if I was Niamh, I wouldn’t forgive you nor give you another chance.”
The hope in Kendrick’s eyes was crushed. His heart also plummeted heavily.
Actually, it was not surprising for him to get this answer. However, when he heard her denying it, the words felt like a knife was slicing his heart.
Felipe rushed to the scene immediately after he saw the live broadcast online.
He pushed the crowd away and walked next to Niamh, his gentle and refined face filled with anger.
