My Wife is a Sassy Queen

Chapter 79 – Conning the con-man



Romeo enquired about the necklace, especially who was putting it on the auction, and coincidentally saw Rose talking about the necklace to someone.

His doubts had been confirmed. Rose had indeed betrayed him.

He paused and waited for the day of the auction before confronting Rose.

The necklace was supposed to be his, so he was going to ensure that he would extort more money than what she would get from the auction.

Romeo spent the next few days idling around P city and meeting some old friends.

During these days, he thought back on the time he had met Rose for the first time.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Romeo was in his mid-twenties and was pretending to be a rich posh man to con a wealthy woman into marrying him which would, in turn, guarantee his care-free rich life. He was okay-looking, good at his game, and knew how to bend things to his advantage.

He met a meek but sexy-looking Rose in her late teens who, unbeknownst to him, was doing the exact same thing.

Both of them were good at tricking people, but fortunately or unfortunately met each other instead.

They got married after a whirlwind romance as they both played their parts. Focused on their own actions, and high on the prospect of their success, both of them had missed the many red flags.

However, after they got their certificates, neither got their way and began to suspect the truth.

By the time they realized the truth, they were already married and had published their marriage in a rather high-profile manner. Not that anyone cared about them but their high-profile marriage had been something neither of them was rich enough to erase.

They had spent the next few months arguing and insulting each other. Worst of all, Rose had been pregnant.

In order to cement themselves with those they had thought as wealthy in-laws, they had both put in quite an effort to get pregnant. That blew on their faces spectacularly.

Moreover, Rose had some complications and the doctor advised against abortion saying it might be difficult for her to get pregnant again and even if she did get pregnant, she might not carry the child to term.

Ultimately they ended up having Lydia, who was neither strikingly beautiful nor smart.

As parents, they still loved her nonetheless.

After years of argument when Lydia was around five years old, Romeo and Rose finally managed to bury the hatchet and form a strange alliance.

Their goal was unchanged after all those years. They planned to trick someone wealthy into marriage and achieve their dream of a work-free wealthy life.

It was a simple plan – either Rose would pretend to be a meek woman and trap some rich man. Or Romeo would seduce some rich woman. Whoever succeeds would take their daughter with them and give enough money to the other to live a life of luxury.

They had tried to trick several people – both men and women – and finally succeeded with Lester Aprice.
