Chapter 25 Miss Bet Hiding from Me on Purpose


    If Ann asked her in a naive and harmless tone, she would definitely answer happily with a smile.


    However, Elizabeth saw a strange coldness in her eyes.


    In the past, Ann would not look at her like that.


    She found or guessed the truth.


    At her age, Elizabeth still didn''t know how to deal with this kind of thing.

    Moreover, she was her best friend whom she really didn''t want to hurt.


    She hesitated for a moment and nodded seriously in the end.


    "Sure, I''m happy for you."


    Ann held her hand tightly, said in a trembling and sad voice.


    "Elizabeth, I love your brother very much. My feelings for him far exceed the interests of the family. I


    really love him. I want to marry him, give birth to children for him, and be a good wife and a good


    mother."


    Her grip hurt Elizabeth a little, but she didn''t break free.


    She nodded. "It''s very happy to spend the rest of your life with the man you love. Ann, I wish you good


    luck."


    Ann loosened her grip a little and calmed down, as if she was trying her best to hide her emotions.


    Elizabeth''s mood was a littleplicated when she saw how she was enduring it.


    She and Ann grew up together. Although Ann was a carefree youngdy, she was not that kind of


    bimbos.


    Ann was obviously very suspicious, but she did not intend to expose it. She just warned her in such a


    restrained way.


    She probably hoped that Elizabeth could no longer have anything more to do with Marvin than brother


    and sister.


    But how could Ann understand that this farce was beyond her control?


    She wished that she would not be a role that would destroy other people''s marriage. However,


    excessive resistance would result in Marvin to treat her even more cruelly.


    Marvin was the man who was even able to cripple his biological father.


    She and her mother could not survive from his cruelty.


    ……


    On the way home from the hospital in the car.


    Ann sent her a document.


    Elizabeth clicked on the document and been shock.


    This was a speech for the engagement party which was extremely touching.


    Elizabeth felt that there was nothing more ridiculous than this.


    However, Ann smiled like an innocent angel. "Elizabeth, I''ve already finished the speech. You are my


    best friend and Marvin''s beloved sister. There is no one more suitable than you to give the speech at


    the engagement party. This is your best engagement gift for me."


    Elizabeth looked at her gentle and beautiful face.


    This was indeed her ymate since she was a child, but on her innocent face, she caught a trace of


    malice that she had never seen before.


    …………


    On the day of the engagement party.


    Elizabeth had been a little off, while she had already memorized the speech.


    She would do what Ann asked her to do perfect.


    However, in addition to her speech, she also had to stand beside Marvin and y the role of a good


    sister.


    The engagement of the young master of the Bet family was attended by almost all the celebrities in


    all the cities around Pinkshire.


    Elizabeth stood at the door of the hall as a guest, smiling and greeting.


    Until she saw Robert in a ck tuxedo, the smile on her face froze.


    Everyone knew that Mr. Williams of the Williams Group and Marvin were opponents.


    Elizabeth couldn''t figure out why he would attend.


    However, when she saw that a waitress had signed on the VIP list, she realized that Marvin had invited


    him over.


    Why? Was it an ordinary courtesy? Or was Marvin showing off with other meanings?


    Elizabeth had no idea at all.


    His arrival seemed to illuminate the banquet hall.


    Many guests gathered around to chat with him.


    Robert acted as if he didn''t know her in such a grand asion. He didn''t greet her or even look at her.


    Elizabeth heaved a sigh of relief.


    If she were with Robert, Marvin would get angry with her.


    …


    After the reception, the engagement banquet began. When the host was warming up, Elizabeth went to


    the bathroom.


    When she came out of the bathroom, a big hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder and dragged her into


    the nearby dressing room.


    Robert''s aura swept over her. She was like a little beast with nowhere to hide. She was only covered by


    his wings and locked in a narrow corner.


    His movements were a little rude. Elizabeth struggled and whispered, "Let me go! How dare Mr.


    Williams be so arrogant in the ce of the Bet family?"


    Robert did not let her go. Instead, he got closer to her and pressed his hard chest against her petite


    body.


    "Miss Bet didn''t want to meet me. You even missed my ss, which made my heart itch. Is that


    your trick?"


    As Robert spoke, his deep breath sprayed on her cheek.


    "No. I just don''t think it''s necessary to keep in touch with you. Mr. Williams, please let me go. I''m going


    to prepare a speech. My brother''s engagement is a big deal, and no mistakes can be made!"


    Robert''s straightforward and burning eyes made her afraid. If she didn''t run away, it would be toote.


    Moreover, she really valued this engagement party.


    She had to be responsible for her promise to Ann.


    At this time, Elizabeth had no idea that this engagement party would be her lifelong nightmare.
