Summer sat in front of the vanity mirror and waited for the makeup artist to apply her makeup. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and her mother, Karen, hurried in. She saw Summer’s messy hair and that she was wearing a long gray jacket to go with a gray look on her face. She looked angry. “The Emersons are here. Why have you not changed your clothes?”
Summer pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose and looked dumb. “Mom, do you really want me to marry my sister’s fiance?”
Karen thought she was going to regret, her face turned white with anxiety. The Emersons were waiting outside, and a simple mistake could destroy her whole family!
She knelt in front of Summer with anxiety. “Summer, I beg you. Your sister deserves better, why don’t you just help her!”
Summer’s hopeless eyes gradually became cold. Although Karen was her biological mother, she gave all the favors to the children of her father’s deceased ex-wife. Karen knew that Summer’s sister’s fiance was ugly and impotent, but she wanted Summer to marry him anyway.
The servant’s pleadings sounded outside the door, “Madam, the Emersons are upstairs.”
Summer didn’t reach out to help Karen, indifferently saying, “Get up, I’m leaving.”
This time, she really lost all her to this family.
Opening the door, she saw a group of strange bodyguards standing outside the door.
These were the people the Emersons sent to pick her up.
She is going to marry someone today without a wedding let alone the groom. “Come on.” She walked ahead and went downstairs first.
The Emersons are the richest family in Huyang city. The only heir, Leonardo, was disfigured and became impotent when he was kidnapped more than ten years ago.
Since then, he has not appeared in public. He was rumored to be brutal and ugly, and no woman sent into his house came out alive.
There is no greater sorrow than heartbreak. Even if he is a devil, it does not matter.
…
Arriving at Leonardo’s villa, the bodyguards took her into the room, and all left.
It wasn’t until the sky outside the window was getting dark that the door was pushed open again.
Summer turned her head and saw a tall and strong man walked in from the door.
He closed the door and turned on the light.
As the lamp was suddenly turned on, Summer outstretched her hand to block the blinding light, then she raised her head to see the man in front of her.
At a glance, she froze.
It wasn’t because the man was ugly and terrifying, on the contrary, He was too handsome.
The dark suit wrapped his tall, muscular body. His couple of long-legged strides soon came to her.
His facial contour was deep and perfect, like an exquisite work of art. It was extraordinarily beautiful, but too much pressure coming forward.
Leonardo looked at Summer for a few seconds, his eyebrows twisted slightly. “Ugly,”
In his calm tone. No extra emotions could be discerned.
Summer looked back in a shock. She didn’t care much about him saying she was ugly, she only looked at him with an expression of vigilance, “Who are you?”
His ink-colored pupil radiated a harsh light, and his voice was deep. “You don’t know who you’ll marry?”
As he got close, his brisk breath sent a shiver down Summer’s spine.
His powerful aura stifled her slightly, but she still straightened her back. “Of course, I know that the person I’ll marry is Leonardo!”
Leonardo heard the words. The sharpness in his eyes gradually converged, and then flashed a trace of clarity. Another woman who believed the rumors. Destined to marry an ‘ugly and impotent’ man, her expression seemed too calm. He had some interest in her.
He smiled, acting calm and collected, “So you are my sister-in-law? I am Douglas, the cousin of Leonardo, I guess at the wedding night, nobody wanted to be with such a wasted man, not even you!”
