《Let Me Go, My Ex-husband》 Chapter 1 The heat slowly surrounded from the back, warm and damp breath soaked the ears, "It''s your first time?"Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org. The unfamiliar breath lingered in the ears, making her shiver, but she did not dare to make a sound. Lindsay seemed to feel the man pause for a moment. before his voice sounded again, "It''s not toote to regret." She clenched her hands nervously and shook her head, "I don''t regret--" She was eighteen years old, just the right age, but ...... It hurt! The tearing pain made her tremble in the man''s arms In order to retain thatst shred of dignity, Lindsay bit her lip, without saying a word. In addition to the fear that it was her first time, there was also fear of this man, she could clearly feel his strong physique and that astonishing strength It seemed like he wouldn''t get tired. He attacked and upied every inch of her skin strongly. And it was a long painful night...... Finally, the man got up and went to the bathroom after midnight, only then did Lindsay dragged her tired body up, put on clothes and walked out of the room. The middle-aged woman who introduced her to this business stood on the first floor of the hotel. She saw Lindsay walk out and handed her a ck bag, "This is your payment.¡± Lindsay didn''t hesitate to take it, then ran out quickly with the money, even ignoring the pain in her lower body, just wanting to get to the hospital as soon as possible. It was not yet light. so it seemed that the corridor was very quiet. Two stretchers were ced on the floor in front of the operating room, they were not sent to the operating room because they had not paid the money. Lindsay looked at them and was heartbroken. She said in a choked voice, "I have money, I have money, please save my mother and brother......" She choked with sobs and handed the money in her hand to the doctor, who took a look at it and had the nurse count it before calling the paramedics to take the injured into the operating room. But her brother was left outside. Lindsay lunged forward, grabbed the doctor and begged, "And my brother, please save him......" The doctor sighed, "Sorry, your brother is incurable......" Incurable? It was like a bolt from the blue, a blow that hit Lindsay in the head and made her ck out. The pain was ike a knife stirring in the chest. Sh¨¦: was so painful that she sat ont thie floor in convulsions . and spagnis. Eight years ago, wher she was-ten years old, her father cheated on her mother and serit her and fer pregnant mother tothis foreign country, where they were totally unfamiliar with. Conten belongs to Then her brother was born, and at the age of three, he was found to have autism tife was already difficult, and her brother''s illness made thhags worse. Her mother and she were able to get by with odd jobsxbut a car ident, in ax country where they had no family,. ne money, and no human touch, made her realize what it meant to be at the end of her rope. She had no choice but to sell her body. But she was not able to save her brother. There was a pain that was not hysterical, it just made her feel bad, like the breathing was difficult and the sky was gray, but she had to ept it with a smile, because she still had her mother. Her mother needed her. After treatment, her mother was getting better, but after learning of her brother''s death, she broke down It was Lindsay hugging her and crying, "Mom, you still have me, live well for me.¡± During this menth in the hospital, Joan often sat by the bed in a daze. Lindsay knew that she was thinking, of her brother, if it wasn''t for herself, she was-afraid her mother would: have.yone with her brother. Sh¨¦ was expelled from school because she had to take care of her mem, but her mother''s injuries had gotten better. She walked into the hospital with food in her hand, and when she reached the door of the ward and raised her hand to open the door, she heard a voice from inside.. She knew this voice well. Although eight years had passed, she still remembered clearly how he had forced her mother to divorce him. After sending them here, he had nevere to see them, but what did he mean by suddenly appearing here today? "Joan, you and thedy of the Jones family were like sisters at that time and set up an infant betrothal, so logically it should be your daughter who will be married..." ¡°Gavin, what do you mean?!" Joan was emaciated, but she struggled to get up to hit him. despite the injuries. Was he still a human being? He ced her and the daughter in this unfamiliar ce, never cared about their lives, and today he came to ask her daughter to get married? "The young master of the Jones family, but also your good friend''s son, is good-looking. And you know the status of the Jones family, she will only enjoy the blessings after marriage......" His voice lowered as he spoke. The young master of the Jones family was honorable and good-looking, but a month ago, he was bitten by a poisonous snake and got nerve paralysis when he went abroad on business. He was unable to move, and got sexual dysfunction. Chapter 2 Marrying him meant to be a grass widow. "I''ll marry him." Lindsay suddenly pushed the door open and stood in the doorway, with her hand clutching the lunch box, "I can get married, but I have a condition.¡± Gavin looked towards the door and saw the daughter he hadn''t seen in eight years, he was in a trance for a few seconds. When she was sent here, she was still a ten-year-old child, now she has grown up. She was fair-skinned, but too skinny, with a face smaller than the size of the palm of a hand, dry and not watery, as if not well developed. She was not pleasing like his youngest daughter at home. The guilt in his heart reduced a little. She was not so good-looking after all, it would not be too aggrieved for her even to marry a husband with sexual dysfunction. At the thought of this, Gavin did not feel bad anymore, ¡°What condition? Say it." "I want to go back to Irnd with my mother. Return all the things that belong to mom to us, and I will promise you to marry him.¡± Lindsay repeatedly clenched her hand, until she calmed down slowly. Although she was not in her country all the time, but she had heard of the Jones family in B city when she was a child, the Jones family wasrge, with wealth of hundreds of billions, and the young master of the Jones family was naturally honored. Lindsay didn''t believe that such a good thing could happen to her, the young master of the Jones family might be strangely ugly, or physically defective. But even so, it was a good opportunity for her to be able to return to her country, and if she used it well, she could also reim the dowry when her mother was married. "Lindsay......" Joan tried to persuade her that marriage was a big event in her life and should be taken seriously. She has already suffered a lot with her, and she could not let her even lose her marriage. When Gavin heard this. he was worried that Lindsay would be convinced by Joan and not willing to get married, so he quickly said, "Okay, as long as you''re willing to get married, I will let you go back to Irnd." "What about mother''s dowry?" Lindsay looked at this nominal father of hers and her voice was icy cold. When Joarhmarried him in the past,. there was indeed a lot of dowry, which. was a considerable amaunt of money. Now it made Gavin¡¯ s heart achie to give it back. belongs to ~ "Dad, I guess My sister is pretty, and she dese ves better. If she marries a physicallychallenged man, her life-> will be over. Besides, you and my> mom have already divorced, sa-you should return the money she¡± 7 brought to the Forrest farnaily." Gavin was shifty-eyed. and dared not look at her with a guilty conscience How could she know that the young master of the Jones family was a physically incapable man when she was abroad all the time? Gavin had no idea that Lindsay was just guessing. Thinking that she was marrying a dysfunctional man, Gavin gritted his teeth, ¡°When you are married, you will have it.¡± His youngest daughter was as beautiful as a flower, how could she marry a man with sexual dysfunction? No matter how honorable he was, he was no different from a wreck. Thinking about this. Gavin did not feel so bad anymore. But he hated Lindsay, who was only thinking of taking money from him, a few more in his heart. Gavin looked at her coldly, "Your mother didn''t bring you up right, you don''t know any manners!"C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Lindsay wanted to say, "Don''t you have any responsibility as a father?¡± He left her here and never took care of her. But she cguldn''t say it at this i moment, ~because she did not weighta lot in the bargaining and it wouldn¡¯ t do her any good i anger Gavin. ... - "Get ready and we''ll go back tomorrow." Gavin left the ward with a flick of his sleeves. Chapter 3 "Lindsay. marriage is a lifetime event, mommy won''t allow you to do this.¡± Joan knew more or less Lindsay''s intention of doing so. Lindsay put the lunchbox on the bedside table and said as she picked it up, "I''m not marrying an outsider, but the son of your friend."- "She has passed away a long time age, and I don''t know anything about her son. Even if I have to break my promise, I want you to marry someone you like, instead of using marriage as a bargaining chip. in which case, I would rather stay here for the rest of my life."? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. Someone she likes? Even if she would meet him in the future, she would not be qualified. She kept her head down. It didn¡¯t matter who she married, what mattered was taking back everything that had been taken away from her. Joan was not able to convince Lindsay to change her mind, and they returned to Irnd the next day. Gavin despised the two of them and didn''t let them into his house, but let them rent a house outside. Only Lindsay coulde back on the wedding day. It so happened that Lindsay didn''t want to go back either. If they went back, her mother would have to face the mistress who had ruined her marriage, so it was better to stay here rather than be ufortable. Tranquility. Joan was still worried, "Lindsay, if this is a good marriage, it won''t happen to you, even though Mrs. Jones and I used to have a close friendship." Lindsay didn''t want to talk about that with her mom and digressed, "Mom, hurry up and eat something." Joan sighed, it was obvious Lindsay didn''t want to talk about it, she suffered with her, and now even her marriage had to be sacrificed. Lindsay had her chopsticks in her hand, but she had no appetite and felt nauseous. "Are you not feeling well?" Joan asked with concern. Lindsay did not want her to worry and lied that she had lost her appetite because of the flight. She put down her chopsticks and went inside her room. The door closed and she leaned against the door. Although she had never been pregnant, she had seen what Joan was like when she was pregnant, she had just felt nauseous and couldn''t eat. And that was what she was experiencing at the moment. It had been over a month since that night, and her period was about ten dayste.. She didn''t dare to think further, that. night hackbeen humiliating, and she wouldn''t have betrayed herselfufit was ''t for her mother and hen younger brother. She shivered...... "You''re pregnant for six weeks." After leaving the hospital, Lindsay still had the doctor''s words "You''re pregnant¡± in her mind. Lindsay came to the hospital without Joan''s knowledge and the result made her distracted, not knowing whether to have it or abort it. She couldn''t help but put her hand over her tummy, though unexpectedly, even insultingly, she actually felt a bit of reluctance. There was the joy and the anticipation of being a new mother. She was in a trance. Back at her ce, Lindsay hid the result of the ultrasound scan before she pushed the door open However, Gavin was there, and her face darkened instantly. What was he doing here? Gavin looked unhappy, seemingly ~~ because-fe hade here without seeingher, and had waited for along times He said coldly, "Go change your clothes." Lindsay frowned, "Why?" "Since you''re marrying into the Jones familyyou and that young master ofthe Jones family will have to meet ¡ì sometime." Gavin looked her uprand down, "Are you going to meethim in such a shabby way? Do your want to embarrass me?¡± What does pain feel like? She thought that selling herself and her brother''s death had made her numb to the pain. Chapter 4 But when she heard Gavin''s heartless words, her heart still ached, it wasn''t numb. He sent her and her mother to a poorer country in the West and hasn''t been in charge of her since then.- Where would she get the money? If she had money, how could her brother have died from dyed treatment? Her hands, hanging at her side, clenched into fists. Gavin seemed to have thought of this and looked slightly embarrassed, "Let''s go, it''s time for Jones¡¯ family to arrive, it''s not good to keep them waiting.¡± "Lindsay ...... " Joan worried, still trying to persuade Lindsay. She has already lost her son, now she only wanted to take care of her daughter. Money no longer mattered She didn''t want her daughter to step into the Forrest family, or the Jones family. Rich and powerful families wereplicated, and there was no telling what kind of man the younger Jones might be. She was worried. "Mom." Lindsay gave her aforting look to reassure her. ¡°Hurry up." Gavin urged impatiently, for fear Lindsay would change her mind, and pushed her a little. Gavin couldn''t get fond of her, and Lindsay hardly felt emotionally attached to her father. All the family affection has been worn out in eight years. Lindsay was too underdressed to meet the Jones family, so Gavin took her to an upscale dress shop to buy her a decent dress. As soon as they entered the door, a shop assistant came to greet them. Gavin pushed Lindsay forward and said, "Find her something she can wear.¡± The assistant looked her up and down and knew roughly what size she wore, "Come with me, please." The assistant took a light blue dress and handed it to her, ¡°You can try it on in the fitting room." Lindsay took it and walked towards the fitting room. "Hugo, do you have to marry the woman from the Forrest family?" The woman''s voice sounded vaguely aggrieved. Lindsay suddenly heard the voice and looked towards the next room. Through the crack of the door, she saw a woman wrapping around a man''s neck with her arms and pouting, "Don''t marry any other woman, okay?¡± Hugo Jones looked at the woman and seemed a little helpless - it was a marriage his mother had decided for him and there was no turning back. But thinking of that night, he could not bear to disappoint her, "Did it hurt a lot that night?" More than a month ago, he went abroad to a backward country to investi gate a I project, andhe was ? bitten bya poisonous snake, the poisormof which was so strong:that if hecdid not abreact through & waman, he would dieof <> dfyness-heat. It was Judith White, who offered herself as his antidote. He knew how he was out of control at the time And it was said that a woman''s first time was painful, and he had no mercy, so he could imagine how much she hurt But she forbore from making a sound, and only trembled in his arms Judith White liked him, and he always knew it, but never gave her a chance. The first was because he did not love her, and the second was because his mother had arranged a marriage for him. But she has always been quietly by his side, and after that time. he felt he should give this woman the title Until now, he still remembered the red, and how fiery it was. Judith put her head on his chest, with her eyes slightly lowered, and hummed shyly. She liked Huge and had been with him all theseyears as a secretary. But it had been long since she was. no longer a virgin, and she couldnt let Huge:know that. She understood all tog-well how much men car¨¦d abaut a woman''s virginity, so''that night she paid a town''s resident to find a virgin to be sent to that room. She waited until the girl had left before going in to create the illusion that it was her that night. "Buy some more if you like the clothes here." Hugo rubbed her hair and said dotingly. "That is the VIP room, you are not allowed to enter, please go to the one on the right." The shop assistant reminded Lindsay. In such a high-end clothing shop, the fitting rooms were all separate <> rooms, and those for VIPs were-even more-upscale, with an inner room for tying on clothes and an outer roam for friends to wait or. fest. ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org. "Oh." Lindsay took the clothes and walked towards the room on the right. Changing clothes in the fitting room, Lindsay was still thinking about the man and woman just now, they seemed to mention the Forrest family. Was it possible that the man......? Chapter 5 Finished changing, Lindsay walked out of the fitting room and looked at the fitting room on her left again, but the door was already closed. ¡°It fits you well." The shop assistant was discerning, and could basically choose the right clothes for the person by the look of the person. Lindsay wore a light blue dress, which set off her white skin, and thecing around her waist outlined her slim waist. She was a little too skinny, but her face has grown quite delicate. Gavin felt it was appropriate, so he went to pay for it. Only then did he notice that the dress cost more than 30,000. but when he thought she was meeting the Jones family, he gritted his teeth and paid, and his voice was icy, "Let''s go." Lindsay had long experienced his ruthlessness, but the coldness at the moment still made her heart ache dully. She followed him into the car with her head down. The car soon pulled up in front of the door of the Forrest''s vi. The driver opened the car door for Gavin, and he got off the car, followed by Lindsay. Standing in front of the vi, she was in a trance for a few seconds. When she and her mother were living a life worse than death because of her younger brother''s illness, her father and the other woman were happily living in this grand vi and enjoying themselves. She couldn''t help but clench her hands. "What are you standing there for?" Gavin didn''t feel anyone following him and looked back to see her standing in the doorway in a daze. Lindsay hurried to keep up. Hearing from the house maid that the Joneses had not yet arrived, Gavin told her to wait in the living room. In the living room by the floor-to-ceiling window stood a piano, SEIDL & SOHN. made in Germany, very expensive, which her mother had bought for her on her fifth birthday. She loved it at a very young age and started learning the piano when she was four and a half, since she was sent away, she has never touched it again. She couldn''t help but put her hand on it, feeling familiar and excited. She ced her index finger on a key and pressed it gently, and with a dangling sound, a melodious and clear sound came out. As she hadn''t yed for a long time, her fingers were much stiffer. "It''s mine! Who allowed you to touch it?!" A clear voice with an angry tone rang out behind her. Hers? Lindsay turnee.around and saw Yvonne Forrest standing angrily behind her. She remembered that ~ Yvonne was a year younger thanc herself which meant she was c¡± seventeen years old this year-She hactinherited the merits of Silvia Sahders and was good-lgdking. But right now, she looked a few hideous baring her teeth and ring. "Yours?" They destroyed mom''s marriage and used that money, now even the gifts that mom has given me became hers? She slowly clenched her fists and told herself over and over in her heart not to be impulsive and not to get mad, because now she was not able to take back what belonged to her yet. She had to put up with it! She was not the little girl who was sent away by her father eight years ago and would only cry, now she was grown up! "You are...Lindsay?!" Yvonne realized that today was the day when the Joneses woulde and dad had taken the mother and daughter back to the country. Yvonne stiltremembered that when Gavin sent Lindsay and her mother out of the country, Lindsay was¡¯on her knees holding Gavin''s leg, + begging him not to send heraway with such a pitiful look. Content b¨¦longs to 7 "Are you particrly happy that Daddy got yeu back?" Yvonne folded her armsxeyer her chest and looked> at her with contempt, "Don'' get too proucof yourself, getting you (ack wasjust to marry you into the. Jones farfily, and they say that mai... At this point, Yvonne covered her lips and sneered. She couldn''t help but gloat when she thought that Lindsay was marrying a man with sexual dysfunction whe was even unable to walk. Marriage is a lifetime event. If you marry a man like that, won''t your life be ruined? Lindsay frowned At that moment, the maid came over, "The Joneses are here.¡± Gavin personally weed them in. Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org. Chapter 6 Lindsay turned around and saw the man in a wheelchair being pushed in. He had deep features and good looks, and even in a wheelchair, no one dared to despise him. Wasn''t this the face of the man she saw in the fitting room, who was flirting with the woman? He turned out to be the young master of the Jones family? But in the fitting room, she clearly saw that he was able to stand up and held the woman in his arms, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with his legs. What was going on? Before she could figure out why this man was pretending to beme, Gavin called out to her, "Lindsay,e here quickly, this is the young master of the Jones family." Gavin shrugged his shoulders in a ttering manner, and offered an ingratiating smile, "Master Jones, this is Lindsay." Gavin felt sorry for the young master of the Jones family, who has be disabled despite his good looks. Hugo set his sights at Lindsay, who looked young, too skinny, and seemed a little malnourished. Then he frowned. This was the marriage his mother set for him, plus his mother has died, he could not break the agreement as he was the son. So, after he was identally bitten by a poisonous snake abroad, he deliberately released the news that he was not able to get detoxified, and became disabled and got sexual dysfunction, just to get the Forrest family to backtrack. To his surprise, the Forrest family did not go back on their word. Hugo was silent, and his face became more and more gloomy. Gavin thought he was dissatisfied, and hastened to exin, "She is still young, just turned eighteen, and when she grows up, she will be a beauty.¡± Hugo sneered in his heart, did not think she would be a beauty, only felt unusual, for Gavin wanted to marry his daughter to him even though he was a ¡®cripple¡¯ He looked indifferent. and the curve of his lips seemed meaningful, "I was identally injured when I went abroad on business, and I''m afraid I can''t walk on the ground with these legs, and I can''t perform my husbandly duties...¡± "I don''t mind." Lindsay immediately replied. Gavin promised her that he would return her mother''s dowry as soon as she married into the Jones family, and even if she got married the first day and divorced the next, now she would have to promise. After digesting the information for a while, Lindsay figured out all the things. He cl¨¦arly could stand up, but came to the Forrest family in & wheelchair, probably because he-did not want to meet the engagement forthe sake of that woman. and wanted the Forrest fami ly-to reverse the engagement first. He just didn¡¯t think that Gavin would be willing to sacrifice her, his less favored daughter, to finish the deal. Hugo narrowed his eyes and stared at her. A shiver ran down Lindsay''s spine as he looked at her, and she felt bitter, why would she want to marry into the Jones family? How could she go back to her country and get back what she had lost if she didn''t agree? She pulled -the corners of her lips, and showed asmile, only she knew the bit eness and astringency of it, ¡®Our marriage has been nned singe we were small, I shouldmarry yorrwhatever you be. Content b¨¦longs to ~ Hugo''s eyes darkened a little. thinking this woman was a good talker. Gavin did not recognize anything wrong. and asked tentatively, "And the wedding date...¡± Hugo''s expression changed rapidly. and finally returned to calm, "Of course, it'' s ording to the agreement, which has been set by the two families for a long time, how can we break it." Lindsay lowered her eyes and collected her thoughts, not daring to look at him, it was obvious that he was also unhappy with the marriage. He agreed now, but only because it was an agreement. "That''s good.¡± Gavin was rejoiced. It was naturally good to be rtives by marriage with the Jones family through a daughter who was not outstanding Although the Forrest family was rich, it was simply pale inparison with the Jones family, no. to be precise, it was like a shrimp and a shark compared with the Jones family. There was noparison between them at all! Gavin bent over and said in a low voice, "I''ve had dinner prepared, please stay here for dinner before you leave.¡± Hugo frowned, finding his scandalous attitude of being timeserving and subservient repulsive. "No, I have-things to do." Hugo : refused ahd Jim Griffin pushed him out the-door. As he passed Lindsay, Hugo:raised his hand to signatJim to stop and he lifted his eyes>¡±Miss Forrest, do you have a mortient?" C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Chapter 7 Although it was a question, it was a tone that one could not refuse. Lindsay nodded, seeing that he looked like he had something to say to her. It just so happened that she wanted to talk to him too. Gavin gave Lindsay a warning look, "Behave yourself.¡± Don''t offend him before you marry him. It can be seen from Hugo''s indifference that he should be unsatisfied with Lindsay. But it''s always good for the Forrest family to get in with the Jones family and be their rtives, and it will help the business of thepany. He didn''t want Lindsay to blow it. Lindsay pretended not to see it and followed Jim out the door. She knew all too well what Gavin had in mind. Where did he get the confidence that she would help him after she married into the Jones family? Just because he was her father? But did he think of her as a daughter? Did he know how she''d spent thest eight years of her life? As Lindsay''s thoughts drifted, her head hit a hard ¡®wall¡¯, she snapped back to her mind, lifted her head, and found that impable face close at hand, locking down at her. He, he was really able to stand up. That was to say, her spection was right. Lindsay''s scalp tingled under the look, so she looked up at him with forcedposure, "You pretend to be disabled on purpose, don''t you?¡± Hugo''s eyes narrowed slightly, with the displeasure of being seen through, histone was not high or x low but. Shocking enough, ¡®Why ¡é dom you wat to marry me despite the fact that I am disabled? What.do you seein me? Money? You wait to be a wealthy wife?" Lindsay only felt that the chill seeped out fram beneath the skin under his state, her whole heart was ike being.h¨¦ld tightly by an invisible. hand, andit was difficult to breath¨¦. However, she remained outwardly calnnand peaceful, "I was twoyears olckwhen I was betrothed te-you, did ¡®Khow about money, andthe benefits of being a rich wife when I was two years old and forced the two mothers to have us betrothed?" She paused for a moment, as if to soften her tone, "Mr. Jones, when I was two years old, you were already ten years old, making you eight years older than me, do I mind that you''re old?¡± Oh, Huge sneered, this woman was more than articte, she was eloquent! She was a smart mouth! He was old? There was a tension in the air. They stared at each other, with sparks flying, and neither one refused to back down Lindsay''s hands clenched into fists at her side. She had married into the Jones family for the sole purpose of Gavin''s promise to return her mother¡¯s dowry. She didn''t mean to make an enemy of this man, so she softened her tone and lowered her posture, "Mr. Jones, I know you don''t want to marry me but we may just as well have a try...¡±N?velDrama.Org owns this text. She deliberately stopped to look at Hugo''s face, his expression fluctuated very slightly, but she caught it anyway. "Mr. Jones, let''s make a deal.¡± Lindsay spoke up, she didn''t really want to marry him either. She would have agreed, only because she wanted to come back from abroad and take back what belonged to her mother and her. "Huh?" Hugeughed gently, seemingly finding it ridiculous and absurd, she wanted to make a deal with him? Lindsay swawed, a cold sweat broke out onher spine from the tension. Hugo was so tall that she ~ had to raise her head to look at him, "I know, you pretend to be crippled becatle you want the Forrest family to-back out of this marriage; which I agreed to. I have my difficulties." That got Hugo interested. Chapter 8 "What do you want?" Since it was a deal, there must be conditions. ¡°One month, I''ll divorce you after we''ve been married for a month.¡± One month was enough time, as soon as she got her mother''s dowry back, she would divorce him Hugo frowned, "That''s the deal you want to make with me?" "Yes, we must get married, this is the agreement of our mothers, neither of us can break it, since this is the respect for them. But after that. we divorce because of personality shes as a matter of course. In this way there will be no agreement to be broken, and you don''t have to live with someone you don''t like for the rest of your life, which does you no harm but only good..." Speaking of this, Lindsay''s tone was softer, "Mr. Jones. I guess you must have someone you like, so you do everything you can to get the Forrest family to break the agreement, right?¡± Hugo''s face darkened abruptly, and he was in a sulk, "I didn¡¯t know you were quite clever."N?velDrama.Org owns this text. Yes, he wanted to give a name of wife to Judith White. He was touched by her youth and reluctance at the time. Hugo''s eyes fixed on her face with feigned calmness, "What about you, what good does this month of marriage do to you?" Huge did not think that she was only thinking about him. Lindsay felt tight in mind, she couldn''t say it was for her mother''s dowry, could she? But if she didn''t give a reason, he wouldn''t seem to believe it. "My mother takes this engagement very seriously, and she¡¯s not well, so I don''t really want to let her down.¡± She was slightly shifty-eyed as she spoke, because she had lied and her mother did not want her to marry into the Jones family at all Hugo''s tone was inexplicably eerie and intimidating, as if he was reading her mind, "Is that so?" Lindsay felt uneasy and nervous. His eyes were too sharp, as if they could prate the mind. Just when she was at a loss as to what to do, the cell phone in his pocket rang. Hugo looked askance at her and took out his phone, when he saw the name disyed on it. his expression softened a bit, and turned around to answer the phone. He seemed to think of something else and turned back, "Since it''s for a month, there''s no need for us to have a wedding." Lindsay had no choice but to agree, "Okay." On August 12th. Jim came to pick Lindsay up. There was no ceremony, no wedding, just a marriage certificate. Lindsay didn''t have much of emotional fluctuation, because she knew very well that it was a give-and-take deal. If it wasn''t for the baby engagement, they probably wouldn''t have crossed paths. Soon the car stopped in front of a vi. Under the sunlight, the stone-built building covering an extremely vast area was magnificent. "Please get in." Jim made a sign to enter. He was supposedly aware that the marriage between her and Hugo was only toplete the engagement, as he treated her neither warmly nor ingratiatingly, but moderately. She was not really the wife of the young master of the Jones family. Although the mansion wasrge, there were not many people, but only a maid. Jim did not introduce, he brought her into the house and left. Lindsay had a slight difort. ¡®This is the-young master''s N residence,m Aunt Nina who takes care ofthis life, you can also cathme that. ¡°Aunt Nina guided her tothe room, "If you need anything, Sjust tell rie." A month was not a long time, Lindsay brought her own necessities, and although she might not bother her, she said, "Okay."

Gontent belongs to Chapter 9 Lindsay seemed to guess why Aunt Nina was like that, she only smiled and did not exin. She and Hugo were nothing more than a deal, and she had ne right to interfere in his private life. In his absence, Lindsay also felt a little more at home.

The car door opened and a magnificent figure stepped out of the car, he stepped into the house, and his steps were not as steady as usual, there was a bit of fidgeting. He tugged at his cor, and his mouth was a little dry. He entered the room, and poured a ss of water, his had throat knot rolled up, and dow one att after another, his dark pupils ¡é clouded with a scarlet ~~ dl unkenness, and after drinkiag up the-water, which relieved a good ¡ª deal of the burning in his throat. He drank a good deal of white wine for social asions, and he drank a few more sses of red wine at Judith''s birthday party. He, who was a good drinker, also appeared drunk. He took off his coat and dropped it on the couch, going straight into the room without going to the bathroom. The room was unlit and the light was dim, but he was familiar with the position of the bed. Hey straight down In a deep sleep, Lindsay felt movement, but quickly fell back to peace as she curled up and went back to sleep. Early morning. Wisps of light, like beams of luminous golden threads, illuminated the room. On the bed, the woman curled up in the crook of the man''s arm, sleeping peacefully. Like a couple of sweet lovers. The man''s eyshes fluttered slightly and he¡¯opened his eyes slowly. Being hungover all night, alls he felt was a heavy mind and the> need t@take a shower to clear bis headsHe had just raised his arm to getup when he found i pinned d@wn by something. When he turned his head sideways, he saw a woman nestled in his arms.

Chapter 10 He frowned, seemingly displeased with this uncontrolled physical reaction, but couldn''t move his eyes. In her sleep, Lindsay dreamed she was on the African savannah, being stared at by a fierce lion, which was staring straight at her as if it was going to eat her. She woke up with a start from her dream However, the moment she opened her eyes, what met her eyes was a pair of deep, yet forcing calm pupils. Her brain went nk for a moment. Her eyes snapped open and she covered her chest, saying incoherently, "You, how did you get in my bed?¡± The man calmly withdrew his gaze and slowly lifted the covers, "This is my bed." Lindsay tried to open her mouth to retort, but when looking at the environment of the room, she swallowed the words that came to her lips. "Weren''t you there for your girlfriend''s birthday? Why did youe back?" Lindsay got off the bed and stood aside. Her tone was a slightly questioning one. Yesterday she heard from Aunt Nina that he was noting back at night, and then she let her guard down and slept deeply, and she did not even know that he had entered the room She actually slept in the same bed as this manst night.
