Chapter 30 He Likes Her Sister
Tanner ordered the driver to drive the car back to the vi located in the outskirts of the city.
She could not evade the unavoidable. Looking at the marriage certificate in her hands, Eliza was at a
loss.
Just like that, the cold and lonely man beside her had be her husband.
Even though he had emphasized that he would be responsible for her in this marriage, she still felt
greatly ufortable.
Perhaps it was due to the fact that her sister was not in good health, and that she often lived abroad,
that he wanted to find someone to rece her…
However, what kind of position did she hold!
She might just be a substitute… But legally, she was his wife. Or rather, maybe he took her as her
sister.
Her sister liked him so much. If she knew about this, Eliza could not imagine what would happen to
her…
Eliza felt anxious. She frowned.

Tanner, on the other hand, was still as serious as ever. In reality, deep down, he was ted. After so
many twists and turns, she was finally his.
It was precisely because of this joy in his heart that Tanner did not notice Eliza’s expression turning
darker and darker.
They did not say anything to each other at all.
After returning to the vi, they got out of the car.
Tanner personally opened the car door for her, and told her to stand beside him. After that, he wrapped
hisrge arm around her waist, and he used his other hand to take the marriage certificate from her
hands.
“I’ll help you keep this.” There was not a hint of indifference or sarcasm. He spoke in a normal tone,
and his lips were slightly curved upwards. It showed that he was in a good mood.
As Eliza looked at the document, she felt a little annoyed. She was so stressed that she could not say
anything at all. She could only nod casually.
Tanner thought that she was just too tired, so he did not think much of it. He carried her into the house
and told her to rest at home. After that, he returned to the study room and started to deal with the
……
Eliza looked around. All of this was supposed to be her sister’s. She did not belong there. At that
moment, Eliza felt like a wild bird that had upied another bird’s nest.
Now, she did not even know how to face her sister…
When it was lunchtime, Tanner was busy with work, so he did not go downstairs. However, he wanted
Eliza to send him lunch.
“Mrs. Deleon, Mr. Deleon does not want us to disturb him when he is working. He asked for you to
deliver his lunch personally to himter.”
“There is no need to wait. I will send it to him now,” Eliza spoke in a calm voice, her expression
indifferent and distant.
The servants brought over another te of food, and Eliza epted it.
She turned around and went upstairs. It was not too far away, but it took her a long time to walk there.
She knocked on the door and entered.
Tanner was handlingpany affairs in front of theputer.
The suit jacket was casuallyid on the back of the chair, and his handsome face had a serious
expression. Tanner was greatly different from how he usually was.
However, Eliza was not in the mood to see how different he was. She just wanted to leave as soon as
possible, as the air there was making her feel suffocated.
“You’ve sent it here so soon? Haven’t you eaten?”
Eliza ced the food beside him. As Tanner spoke, his gaze was still fixed onpany documents.
Eliza did not speak. She turned around and was about to leave. Tanner stretched out his long arm and
pulled her back.
“What’s wrong, are you in a bad mood?”
He could tell from her expressions that her thoughts were serious, but she stayed silent, lowering her
head and not looking at him. Tanner exerted his strength, which Eliza tried her best to resist, but she
could not defeat him. She was slowly pulled into his arms.
Even so, she still continued to keep her head down, frowning.
Tanner grabbed her chin and forced her to raise her head.
“Shall we eat together?” Tanner looked at her intently, but her red lips were tightly shut, and she did not
respond at all.
He was suddenly confused. "What’s wrong?"
Eliza watched his face gradually turn cold. She dared not stay any longer. As long as he was around,
she would feel unsettled.
Tanner did not exert any strength, and she forcefully pulled away from him.
As he watched her run out in a hurry, Tanner did not know what he had done wrong to make her resist
so much.
……
Eliza rushed downstairs. Only after she left him, did she feel like she was regaining her sanity. She took
a deep breath. The aroma of the dishes were still there, and the food was still warm too.
However, she was not in the mood to eat anymore. Back when they were alone, she realized just how
much she did not want to be with him.
She walked around in the courtyard alone, thinking about nothing and everything. She was so very
confused. She could see the beautiful flowers everywhere, but she could not see her future.
The originally beautiful ce seemed to have turned into a prison.
On that sunny afternoon, she continued to walk in the yard. She did not want to see him, for he would
remind her of her sister. It would make her feel ufortable…
At night, Tanner came downstairs and saw that the dishes were already ced on the table, but Eliza
was nowhere to be seen.
He looked out of the window. Sure enough, she was still there. She seemed to like the bed of flowers a
lot. Whenever she had anything on her mind, she would go there to spend her time.
However, when it came to the reasons for her troubled mind, he only knew a little of it. He did not fully
understand her. Beauty and warmth were one thing, but she wanted to avoid him, and he did not know
why.
He had always liked to take the initiative. The same could be said when it came to rtionships.
Dusk arrived, and Eliza had been in a daze for a whole day. She did not eat anything. It was not until
the breeze blew and made her shiver that she came back to her senses. She sighed and returned to
her room.
There was food in the kitchen, kept warm for her, but she only ate a little.
Tanner continued to wait for her in her room.
He had prepared all of this for her. He did not know why she was dissatisfied. He looked at her
unhappy face, and he felt a little bit angry too.
It seemed that he had been treating her a little too well recently. She was so used to it that she did not
think much of it!
Eliza returned to the bedroom and she saw him sitting on the sofa… She saw the coldness in his eyes,
and felt that the temperature around her immediately dropped.
She mustered up her courage and took the initiative to speak.
“What is it?” She pursed her lips slightly to reveal her inner nervousness.
“You are my wife, I don’t need to remind you of that fact.” Tanner’s gloomy tone and dangerous
countenance were like the calm before a storm.
As of that moment, he was like an enraged beast.
Eliza’s heart skipped a beat.
“I know.” She pretended to be calm.
“So, as my wife, what should you do?” He stood up and walked towards her.
She wanted to run, but her legs seemed to be pinned to the floor. She could only watch him get closer
and closer to her…
Tanner stretched out his hands, then forcefully trapped her in his embrace. His gaze was vicious.
“If you don’t know what a couple should do, I will teach you.” His voice was charming yet dangerous.
Tanner gently nibbled on her earlobes, and hisrge hands caressed her waist.
His thin lips fell from her ears to her neck.
He treated her as if they were a pair of intimate lovers.
Eliza''s entire body was tensed up. She even trembled a little. When he acted that way, it made her
scared. The same could be said for the previous night.
As expected, he was Tanner Deleon. He did not need to consider anyone''s feelings. So why would he
ever consider her feelings...
