“Tiria, you said that you wanted to wait for our wedding night, then you’d give yourself to me. I’ve waited for this day for a very long time. At last, you’re officially my wife, and we’re going to consummate our relationship as husband and wife tonight, okay?”Sotiria’s lips trembled. She knew that Garrison really loved her, and he was a healthy, hotblooded man. In the past four years of their relationship, Garrison had asked to share a bed with him. However, she would decisively refuse every time.She had told Garrison that she would only take that step with him after they were married.Garrison!He treated her best of all in this world. He had suffered too much grief because of her. Tonight, she couldn’t let him suffer any more grief, no matter what!As his wife, she had to do her duty and give him children!“This is our first time. I hope it’ll be the most beautiful memory for us. Tiria, where would you like to do it? Here? Or on the bed?”Garrison was extremely excited. H
“Tiria… I can’t!”The outstandingly handsome Garrison stared apologetically at Sotiria. His forehead was drenched in sweat.“I was doing just fine. I even had a check-up at the hospital. I was completely capable of having kids with you, but… But… I don’t know what happened. Nothing’s reacting down there.”‘Well…’Sotiria was shocked at first. Then, she snorted.“Hahaha… I see. Don’t worry, I believe you. I won’t laugh at you.”“SIgh!” Garrison anxiously smacked his forehead.“I must’ve been too excited after you’ve agreed to give yourself to me. I also had a lot to drink today, and it’s my first time doing this with a woman. I was too nervous…”“Okay! Okay!”Sotiria patted Garrison on the shoulder consolingly. She grinned and said, “I know, you must be exhausted today. Otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened. We agreed before getting married. I’m used to sleeping alone, and you agreed that we’d sleep in separate rooms after our marriage. Go back to your room and get some rest!”
Jordan’s eyes met with Sotiria’s. She blushed.“Uh… May I ask you a personal question?”“Mm.” Sotiria nodded.Jordan rubbed her black-rimmed glasses. “Usually, a newly-wed couple would consummate their marriage on their wedding night. So, did you and Mr. Larson do it?”Sotiria’s face immediately looked inflamed. She opened her lips awkwardly, “No…”“Why?” Jordan, who was feeling slightly embarrassed moments ago, was now bursting with curiosity. Her eyes lit up, and she spoke two times faster than usual. “I know that Mr. Larson has always wanted to do it with you. He’s been waiting eagerly for your wedding night. He should have been very eager last night. Did you refuse him? Were you traumatized by whatever happened between you and Mr. Connor last night? Is your body subconsciously rejecting other men because you just had sex with Mr. Connor?”‘My God!’Sotiria, whose face was initially bright red, instantly turned purple. “Get out!”“Huh?” Jordan looked aggrieved. “Tiria, I t
“Zachary… Connor…”Sotiria breathed the name in a trembling voice.The man nodded, feeling pleased. “Since you’re aware, Mrs. Larson, please don’t make things any more difficult for us. Please, let us maintain niceties and go home.”Sotiria looked at Garrison helplessly.Garrison was enraged. However, when he looked around him, he realized that there were a few men in sunglasses staring fixedly at him. They were men sent by Zachary to stop him and Sotiria from boarding their plane. If he forced his way through and fought with those men, it would be more than just a fruitless endeavor. He might even be detained for starting a fight in public.He had no choice but to grab Sotiria’s hand and snap angrily. “Tiria, we have plenty of ways to leave Rothesay, regardless of Zachary’s great abilities. He could stop us from taking a plane, but he can’t possibly restrict our freedom. We’ll drive to Bay City.”Sotiria rolled her eyes at the man who stopped her.“Hmph! Please send a message t
Garrison’s throat quivered. His eyes were like balls of flame. “Who submitted that report on me? Why is he picking on me?”The man sighed. “I don’t know why he’s picking on you, but I dare not speak his name. All I can tell you is that everyone always calls him Mr. Connor.”“Zachary! That b*stard again!”Unable to contain his anger, Garrison punched the car door.“You can’t trust him. He has other intentions. Regardless of his report, he’s framing me!”“Uh…” The man was at a loss. He calmed himself and pointed at the three policemen behind him.“Please be sensible, Mr. Larson. Get out of the car and come with us, or we’ll have to do this by force.”“I will not leave this car! I’m going to Bay City with Tiria! Don’t stand in my way!” Garrison patted the car seat. “Jordan, ignore them. Smash through those police cars and keep going.”How could Jordan possibly have the guts to do that?Realizing that Garrison wasn’t going to cooperate, the policemen had no choice but to drag hi
“You sound very upset that Garrison was taken away.” Zachary’s voice was as cold as ice. Sotiria was breathless from rage. “Yes! I’m upset. Wouldn’t you be upset if your family member was humiliated and framed like this? Zachary, I’m telling you, if you’re not rotten to the core and you have any semblance of a conscience left in you, please revoke the report you filed against my husband and let him come back to me so we can be reunited.”“Heh.”Zachary let out a cold chuckle. “Your reunion with him will never come. Your husband will be given the death sentence today, so you can just wait to collect his body!”‘What?’Sotiria immediately exploded. “How could you do this, Zachary? Don’t you have a conscience at all? Hello? Zachary! Hello? Hello…”Zachary had ended the call.Sotiria put the phone down. Her hands were trembling, and her eyes were filled with tears. “You heard it yourself, Jordan. It’s nothing like you described it. Zachary’s hell-bent on hurting Garrison.”J
At that moment, a tall and slim woman suddenly pushed her trolley over to her and blocked her way. “Tiria? Is that you?”‘Oh my god! Do I have a target on my back or something? How could someone have recognized me?’Sotiria pulled up her face mask, then raised her head and looked over at the woman. She gasped when she saw her enchanting, fox-like face.“Oh my, it’s you!”‘Melina!’The woman who had nearly turned her into an invalid not too long ago, who she had later made sure paid dearly for her actions! That day, she had sent two ugly men to humiliate her and take a video of it too… Melina definitely hated her!Now, she had recognized her and would never give up on this chance to expose her in public and use the ugly gossip about her to publicly humiliate her. She was doomed!“Don’t worry, Tiria. I harbor no ill intentions for you.” Instead of raising her voice, Melina lowered it so that the people around them wouldn’t be able to hear them. “I heard what happened yesterday,
“Alright, I need to go home and cook.”Melina pushed her trolley, which was full of groceries, and left.“Wait.” Sotiria hurriedly stopped her. “I sent those two ugly men last time to… Sigh! I don’t understand. Don’t you hate me? Why are you helping me?”“Everyone says that I look like a fox. At first glance, I don’t look like a good woman to them, but in reality, I have a very clear perception of right and wrong. I hurt you and had those two ugly men take pictures of the entire process and post them online. I even told them to turn you into an invalid. The things you’ve done to me are far more merciful than everything I wanted to do to you. Besides, Mario has been running around with prostitutes every day. Ever since that incident, my heart has become steadier than ever…”Melina stroked her belly. “So, I don’t hate you. In fact, I’m kind of grateful to you. Just remember to stay away from Mario from now on, and I will remain grateful to you forever.”The corners of Sotiria’s li
