Chapter 2
On the day of the wedding, a week later.
Because the groom was sick and crippled and had no power or influence, the Clarke family naturally wouldn’t make a big fuss about it.
Elizabeth was originally a daughter who quietly returned. The Clarke family wouldn’t lose face if no one knew about it.
In the bedroom, Kaida held Elizabeth’s hand in feigned kindness, saying, “I’m sorry for what happened to you these years, causing you to suffer and wander outside. We finally found you, but because of the engagement we had earlier, you had to marry such a person. But Liz, you need to understand your father. He loves his parents so much and can’t bear to go against the elders‘ wishes.”
She said she was sorry but couldn’t bear to hire a makeup artist for the bride. It was noted that even the wedding dress was rented.
What a hypocrite!
Elizabeth sneered inwardly and said with an innocent face, “Mrs. Clarke, please don’t say that. Since the marriage contract was made by the elders of the Clarke family, it should naturally be completed by me, the descendant of the Clarke family. I
don’t feel reluctant.”
The implication was that she was from the Clarke family, and Kaida Clarke was just an outsider no matter how much she tried to integrate.
The sentence made Kaida feel sick, as if she had eaten a fly, and the insincere smile on her face faded somewhat.
When Katherine Clarke came in, Kaida immediately stood up from her chair. “Kathy, talk to Liz. I’ll go see your dad.”
It was ridiculous that before her mother died, Elizabeth always thought that her parents were an enviable couple. Later, she learned that her father already had a lover and even had a child before marrying her mother.
He only married Elizabeth’s mother for the sake of her family’s property.
Later, he brought Kaida into the house immediately after Elizabeth’s mother died. At that time, Elizabeth realized that the previous enviable love was all fake..
As soon as the door closed, Katherine put away her smile and sneered at Elizabeth, “How does it feel to be marrying a crippled and sick person? Elizabeth, your mother is not a match for my mother, nor are you for me. I will always step on you and make you bark like a dog.”
Elizabeth applied some lip glaze on her lips without raising her eyelids. “There is indeed a dog barking.”
“You know your place. If it were not…” At this point, Katherine suddenly reacted and raised her hand, trying to slap Elizabeth. “Elizabeth, how dare you trick me!”
Elizabeth lightly dabbed the glaze on her lips with her fingertip and glanced at Katherine, saying, “Think carefully about what the consequences will be when your slap lands on my face.”
Katherine was stunned by Elizabeth’s aura but unwillingly raised her neck and said, “What consequences could there be? The Hayes family has long fallen. Do you still expect that cripple of the Hayes family to support you?”
“I don’t know if he will back me up, but Dad will definitely feel embarrassed.” Elizabeth retracted her gaze. “You have played the good daughter in front of him for more than 20 years. Are you sure you want to expose your true nature today?” Katherine looked at her face, which was stunningly beautiful with just a little bit of makeup, and felt a deep hatred. “This woman had a seductive appearance, just like her mother,” she cursed inwardly.
“It’s almost time to sei off.” Richard Clarke pushed the door in with Kaida.
Elizabeth looked up and smiled obediently, “Okay.”
There was no wedding banquet, no ceremony, and the groom didn’t even have someone to pick up the bride.
The driver sent Elizabeth to the Hayes family, and a servant took her into the bedroom.
The room’s lights were not turned on, and the heavy curtains blocked the outside light. After closing her eyes briefly, Elizabeth adapted to the darkness and saw a figure bulging on the big bed in the room.
That person should be her newly–married husband, the groom who did not even show his face from beginning to end.
Thinking of the rumors about him being crippled, Elizabeth took the initiative to walk over. “Hello, I’m Elizabeth Clarke, the one who married you today.”
As she spoke, she reached out to grab his wrist.
However, before her fingers touched him, her wrist was grabbed by someone. After feeling that everything was Spinning around her, someone pinned her down.
Chapter 2
Elizabeth reflexively lifted her knee to strike and used a counter–grah with her hands, trying to counterattack.
However, the man reacted more quickly and easily avoided her attack. With a press of his long legs, he locked her firmly.
His actions were swift and decisive. He couldn’t be weak, as rumored, no matter how one looked at it.
“Who are you? What are you trying to do? Let me go, or I’ll shout for someone.”
The two were close to each other. After Elizabeth struggled for a while, she was keenly aware of the man’s body changes, and her face instantly turned red to her ears. “You… you rogue!”
“You were the one who embraced and seduced me and also the one who ignited the fire. Why do you accuse me of being a rogue in the end? Mrs. Hayes, you are so unreasonable. It’s not what a good wife and mother should look like.”
Elizabeth was left speechless by his words.
Hearing the voice, she widened her eyes in the darkness and said, “It’s you…”
“It’s me.”
A wave of anger surged up from her heart and instantly filled her limbs.
“So, when I introduced myself in that private room in Skygrace, he already knew I was his future wife. No wonder he said we would meet again soon,” Elizabeth said inwardly.
“You…”
“Shh… A finger was placed on Elizabeth’s soft lips. The man whispered, “Don’t talk. Cooperate with me.”
Elizabeth’s eyes widened. “What was his hand doing?” she wondered.
“You bastard, stop it. Her tone was angry and anxious, but her soft voice did not seem to be angry but somewhat coquettish.
At this moment, a man was tightly attached to the door like a gecko outside the room, trying hard to hear the sound inside
the room.
The housekeeper looked embarrassed and said, “Mr. Hayes, this is not good. Let’s go back…”
“Shut up, keep your voice down. If you affect them making babies for the Hayes family, see how I can deal with you.”
The voices outside were very quiet, but the space was too quiet, and Elizabeth could still hear them. Her face turned red. almost instantly.
Although Andrew Hayes couldn’t see it, he could feel Elizabeth’s sudden surge of heat. She was really a shy little girl, completely different from the one who threatened people with a machete that day.
“Grandpa wants me to get married and have children, and the marriage is just to fulfill his wish. Are you willing to cooperate, or do I have to make you put on an X–rated show?”
“You…” Elizabeth was so angry that she couldn’t speak. She wanted to resist, but seeing the man’s action, she could only grit her teeth and nod in agreement
Her voice burst through the door and delighted Benjamin Hayes outside, making him smile from ear to ear.
“Thank God! My grandson’s attracted to girls, and he’s not impotent! The Hayes family will finally have a successor!”
