Chapter 8N
But before I could clench my fist, Kingsley’s hand came up.N “I do.“N
His index finger swept across the back of my hand in a soothing manner. With just one move, the restlessness in my heart seemed to be soothed miraculously.
“Bride, are you willing to marry the groom?“N
The MC finished speaking and before I could respond, a familiar voice came from afar.
“No! Emily, don’t marry him!”
I looked at Austin running over in embarrassment and I felt ridiculous in my heart.
The Emily that I couldn’t even beg for at the beginning, now I got it so easily.
But I didn’t feel happy at all, but felt disgusted.N
I didn’t look at him again, but nodded firmly to Kingsley.N
“I do.”
Austin staggered a few steps and his eyes were bloodshot.N
“Emily, are you really willing to marry him? I know you have always liked me. Come back now and we can start over, okay?” Austin was half–dragged by the security guard and his tone was almost begging.
couldn’t help but sneer when I heard it. “Austin, I’ve said that I don’t want you anymore. Please don’t disturb my wedding, okay?” Kingsley held my hand, tightening it even more. He nodded and asked the security guard to drag the person out.
The wedding went on as usual and no one took the previous episode to heart. Except Kingsley.
After removing my makeup, I lay on the bed and before I had time to close my eyes, I was picked up by a pair of big hands. Kingsley held me tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to embed me into his bones and blood.
After a long time, I struggled to break free and lay on his shoulder, panting hard.N
“What are you crazy about?” I asked him.N
Kingsley didn’t say anything, but still wanted to continue holding me.
Until the end, he finally said awkwardly, “Do you regret marrying me?“N
I didn’t escape anymore, but looked at him firmly. “I, Emily, will not change my decision.”
The meeting between Kingsley and me was completely an accident. The kidnapping when I was 18 left a deep psychological shadow on
- me.
At that time, I pretended to be calm and negotiated with the kidnappers, but after all, I was just a little girl who had not experienced much
of the world. Just when I was about to lose my disguise. Kingsley appeared and took me out of the passenger ship.
At that time, the morning light was dim and I only saw his back.
“You are the bravest girl I have ever seen.”
Before I fell into a coma, I only remembered this sentence.
So when I woke up and saw Austin. I subconsciously regarded him as the one who saved me.§
It was also when I met Kingsley that I suddenly realized. It turned out that there was another person in this world who was so compatible with my soul.
Kingsley heard my answer, nodded with satisfaction and let me go to sleep.
Austin was still persevering, knocking on the door of Jonas’s house. I had no time to deal with him and I was devoted to my mother’s equity.
The Barley was founded by my mother and father, but unfortunately my mother died unexpectedly before she could enjoy the happiness of her life. Now my father wanted to transfer the shares to Suzy, but I would never agree to it.
I used Kingsley’s network to collect a lot of evidence of my father’s embezzlement of public funds. On the day of the shareholders‘ meeting, I successfully took over The Barley’s with 40% of the shares.
Because he couldn’t stand the stimulation, my father was sent to a mental hospital.
Before he was admitted to the hospital, he made a special request, asking his youngest daughter to take care of him personally, otherwise she would not be able to get the corresponding inheritance.M
