Chapter 2

Cordelia’s mind went blank. She felt a warm chest press against her back. She could even hear strong, rhythmic heartbeats. The man above her kept her securely within his arms, and she tried taking a deep breath but still could not stretch out her frozen limbs.The man stopped abruptly.“Do you know who I am?”Cordelia paused. The man wanted to say that he was her husband and this was their wedding night. It was more than justified for them to do this as husband and wife.In spite of this, Cordelia took his question literally and timidly answered, “I do… You’re Marcus Grist.”The man squinted and gave her a light smirk. Marcus Grist… Hah, should he be glad that she knew the name? It was too bad that he was not Marcus Grist—and she was not Yelena Jenner.From the moment she had stepped through the door, he had been able to tell that she was only a substitute. He did not know why, but the temper of the Jenner heiress would never allow her to marry a countryside villager.It was f

Chapter 3

Cordelia draped a light robe over herself and went out to the front of the house, where Marcus was working out.The man’s upper body was bare while he held two dumbbells in his hands. As the morning sun shone on his pronounced muscles, it felt like he was Helios, who had descended from heaven.Cordelia’s cheeks burned a little as she greeted him softly. “You’re up early!”Marcus turned around to glance at her.Cordelia scanned her surroundings. The front of the house was not too spacious. It was rather messy, and there were sandbags, boxing gloves, baseball bats, weights, and similar things lying around. Her heart squeezed. She dared not claim that the rumors were true, but Marcus must fight often.She wondered about the man’s temper. She had heard that people in this area were severely masochistic and it was not uncommon for drunk men to beat their wives up.Cordelia bit her lip and stepped closer, asking him with almost bated breath, “Um… Have you had breakfast?”“No.” The man

“I washed it!” Cordelia said hurriedly. “I promise it’s clean! There’s nothing wrong with it!”“Hah, you washed it?” the sales assistant scoffed. “Miss, why’d you wash it when you only rented it for a day? You rented it to get married, not to farm, right?”Cordelia, who was embarrassed, flushed.The conditions during her wedding had actually not been too different from farming conditions. She had walked the muddy village paths in the rain, soiling her white wedding dress and shoes, as well as chafing her feet.The sales assistant flipped the skirt of the wedding dress repeatedly and threw Cordelia dirty looks.“Miss, even if you wash this washing dress, you have to dry wash it!“Do you even know what dry washing means?”The sales assistant intentionally mocked her upon seeing how naïve she was. “Sigh, our wedding gowns have been sold one after another since we opened for business. This is the first time we rented one… Hah, don’t get married if you can’t even afford a dress!”“C

Chapter 5

The boutique was suddenly pin-drop silent. The others looked sympathetically at the sales assistant while the latter scowled. Despite that, the manager who came eyed her, urging her to do what the customer wanted. After all, that was one expensive wedding dress.Marcus was nonchalant, and the smile on his aloof face never did reach his eyes.Cordelia could not help tightening her hold on his hand.“Forget it, let’s not buy it,” she told him softly. “This wedding dress is very expensive, and we won’t have much use for it in the future…”“Swipe the card.” Marcus sounded frosty. “No password necessary.”Ultimately, it was the boutique manager and designer who mediated the situation.Marcus stood by the door smoking while Cordelia had her measurements taken inside. This time, no one dared mock her. The sales assistant stood aside stoically after the manager chastised her, and the designer kept complimenting Cordelia’s figure. Even the manager treated her like she was a VIP, making he

Chapter 6

Marcus pinched the spot between his brows and looked grimmer before taking a deep breath and hanging up. He would make a trip back to Centrolis—just not now. He would only be alarming the people who thought that he had died in the plane crash and causing them to conspire again and find more vicious ways to harm him!“Boba or grass jelly? Which one do you like?”That question pulled Marcus out of his thoughts, and he met a pair of sparkling big eyes. Cordelia grinned at him, as sweet as the milk tea she had in her hand.“What’s gotten to you?” Cordelia looked at him. “You don’t look quite…”“I’m fine.” It did not feel good that someone could see past him.Marcus’s voice was icy as he turned his back to her. “Have one yourself. I don’t like sweet things.”Cordelia froze on the spot, holding two cups of milk tea. It was only after some time that she jogged up to him, biting her lip.She stayed behind him, not daring to go too close. The man’s back felt like a slab of frosty wall. T

Chapter 7

After taking a guess, Marcus went on to say, sounding unfazed, “Go to the drawer in the room. There’s a box inside. Bring it over.”Cordelia did what she was told, finding a carved wooden box in the deepest part of the drawer. The pattern carved on the box was exquisite and gorgeous, while the box had a vague refreshing scent to it.Marcus took it from her and opened it, only to reveal a few pieces of gold jewelry: a necklace, a pair of earrings, a ring, and a bangle. The bangle was especially unique, as it was made of gold and jade. The jade that was embedded in the gold was radiant in color and cool to the touch.Cordelia’s eyes widened as she looked at the man in confusion.“This is…”“I haven’t given you a decent gift for the wedding,” Marcus said as he picked up piece after piece of jewelry and looked at them nonchalantly.“Consider these a present from me. Have a look and see if you want anything else?”Cordelia clenched her hands under the table repeatedly. She felt rathe

Chapter 8

Cordelia’s smile went stiff as a spark of sorrow flickered in her heart.Linda was right. Marriage was for life, and she had gotten married mindlessly. She had not even gotten to date properly. It was true that she was letting go of her happiness for life. However…She pressed her lips together before chuckling. “It’s not so sad. I actually want to thank Marcus. If he hadn’t married me, I wouldn’t have gotten $40,000!”As long as her mother recovered and her younger brother was able to study and live well, that would be her greatest joy.“Okay, I’ll stop here!” Cordelia was in a hurry to hang up. “I’m going back today for the money. I’ll tell you the good news when I get it!”Cordelia carefully tucked her phone back into her bag and soon reached the busiest street in Jangasas. As she stood on the street and watched the bustling life before her, it felt like a lifetime had passed.…“Oh, you’re back, Cordelia!” Yelena’s shrill voice dripped with mockery as she came downstairs and

Chapter 9

“I said—dad’s not home!” Yelena smirked victoriously.“Dad forgot all about your visit today! I mean, given the kind of man you got married to, is it really necessary for dad to welcome you back? Please, it’s embarrassing enough as it is!”“I don’t need any welcoming!”Cordelia sprang up to stop Yelena. “I want my wedding gift!”“Wedding gift?”Yelena arched a brow and smirked vilely at her. “What wedding gift? Never heard of it!”Cordelia was stunned, but her heart beat fast. At that moment, all the reluctance, indignation, and resentment she felt rushed through her. She knew that she did not have a high starting point. The second she had come to this world, she had been stamped with the label of an illegitimate daughter.That was not what she would choose, however. Despite the darkness she had experienced all these years, she had worked hard to chase after the light.No ordinary girl would agree to the absurd request to marry a man in place of someone else! She had just wante

Chapter 10

When Marcus opened the door, he was greeted by the sight of Cordelia coming out of the kitchen with two plates.She originally had worry etched on her face, but she swapped it for a smile the moment she saw him. Unfortunately, the smile looked a bit forced.Marcus sat at the table after washing his hands. He had trained the whole day, so he was famished. The steaming dishes looked very appetizing. He picked up his cutlery and started to eat, while Cordelia sat unmoved opposite him.“What happened?” He looked up at her.Cordelia jumped but shook her head lightly.“Then eat up.” Marcus put some meat on her plate. “Will you get full just by looking?”Cordelia dipped her head with pressed lips. She really did not have much of an appetite. Her phone rang with a ding, and it was her brother, Carter Irwin.[Sis, when will we get mom’s treatment money? The doctor will stop giving her medication otherwise!]She felt her heart squeeze as she subconsciously looked toward the drawer in the
