Chapter 1 Being Set up by Her Stepmother
Florence Scott felt her blood vessel on the verge of breaking.
She was drugged by Allison Wyatt, her step-mother. She only took a small bite, and she couldn't even bear it. If she took it all, her blood vessel might have broken and she might have died.
Florence was dumbfounded. She felt as if she was floating on a cloud, and sometimes walking in the desert. She was very thirsty and felt like she was about to die of thirst.
"Hot, thirsty..."
Florence couldn't stand it anymore, and unconsciously took off her clothes with both hands.
"I'll take you to the hospital."
The man immediately knew that Florence was drugged.
"Help me!" Florence grabbed the man's hand. She couldn't wait for going to the hospital. If she didn't want to die, she could only ask the man in front of her for help.
The man's cold body temperature made Florence want more. The moment she touched his skin, her last reason was gone.
"Girl, you have to think clearly, do you know who I am?"
"I want to survive."
Florence expressed her meaning very simply. In fact, at that moment, she didn't think too much about other things.
She had only one thought, to be alive.
The medicine had long occupied her rationality.
Florence hurriedly unbuttoned the man's clothes, but after a long time, she still couldn’t unclasp any button. She was so anxious that she cried, "Why can't I unclasp it?”
The man narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised as he said, "Hey, don't be in a rush."
Florence put her arm around the man's neck and kissed him. At this time, she was like a stranded fish, and the man in front of her was a pool of clear springs, which made her instinctively forget about her own.
The man's lower abdomen tightened. His eyes darkened and his voice was husky, "Girl, you have to be responsible for me after sleeping me me. Remember, I am your man, Alexander Logan."
Florence had long been unconscious, and she had no time to think about what he said.
The car shook for almost all night, and Florence no longer remembered how many times they had reached climax.
At last she was exhausted and fainted.
When she woke up, it was noon the next day.
She felt as if her whole body was crushed. The memories of last night flooded into her mind, and then she clearly saw the things around her, and the bright red stain under her body. She felt sore and had the urge to cry.
Her life was saved, but there was no possibility for her and Thomas.
Looking at the messy clothes in the car, she could see how crazy they were last night.
Florence quietly glanced at the man who hadn't woken up. He was a very good-looking man. He had an appearance that even a woman like her couldn't help but marvel at.
He had an angular face with deep facial features, straight eyebrows slanting upwards and outwards, and a Roman nose.
She looked down and her gaze fell on the naked upper body of the man. He had well-defined muscle lines and thin muscles, which gave a sense of strength at first sight, and she also saw how amazing this man was in that aspect last night.
Thinking of this, Florence's face quickly blushed.
Seeing that the man hadn't woken up yet, Florence put on her clothes at once. Before she could slip away, the man suddenly woke up.
"Leave at once after doing all those things. Girl, you are so ruthless."
Alexander stretched lazily, staring at Florence with a faint smile.
"We were already a husband and wife last night. You don't want to admit it?"
"I, I..." Florence was momentarily dumb. She asked him to sleep with her last night, and she really wanted to slip away, considering it a one-night stand, but looking at this man's accusing eyes, she even felt guilty, "Sorry, there was a reason for what happened last night..."
"That was my first time." Alexander looked at Florence with sad eyes, completely blocking the excuse behind her.
Florence, "..."
"What kind of compensation do you want?" After Florence said this, she suddenly felt like she went to a nightclub and go whoring. Seeing the man's face darkened, she explained, "Yesterday I was drugged. My stepmother wants me to marry a man who is crippled, disfigured and is about to die. I won't marry him even if I die."
The corners of Alexander's mouth moved.
She wouldn't marry him even if she would die?
Seeing Florence's nervous expression, a meaningful smile appeared on Alexander's face, "Last night was still my wedding day. Now I'm afraid that the bride won't accept me because of you. You have to pay me a bride."
"Ah? I'm sorry, I really didn't know that you were going to get married as well last night." Florence was very sorry, but wasn't it embarrassing to ask her to pay him a bride?
"I, I'm really sorry..."
"Forget it, you are so beautiful. Look at the wedding dress on you, it's worth a lot of money. How will you like a Uber driver like me?" Alexander's eyes were dark and his tone was very upset.
Florence didn't even know what his job was, so how could she dislike him because of this?
But when she saw his sad face, her heart suddenly felt stabbed, and she blurted out, "I'll be responsible."
Alexander smiled and grabbed Florence's hand, "Then come back with me now and visit my parents."
"Not now." Florence awkwardly withdrew her hand, "I have something to do. I will give my phone number to you, and I will contact you later."
Allison Wyatt played a trick of stealthily substituting the bride, and now she must go back to the Scott family.
"Then I'll wait for you." Alexander didn't tease her anymore.
Florence left a wrong phone number and left.
Sitting in the car, Alexander watched Florence's back, and his eyes flashed with intense interest.
The bright red stain on the car seat was very dazzling. Alexander glanced at it, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
The phone rang and Alexander answered it.
"Your bride ran halfway, and you, the bridegroom, I haven't heard from you all night. Boss, what did you do last night? What else is more important than getting a wife?"
"I slept with the bride!" A rare hint of gentleness appeared in Alexander's eyes.
He also didn't expect his bride to escape from the wedding but bumped into him in the end.
Alexander's understatement shocked William James who was at the other end of the line for a long time.
"Boss, are you kidding me? The bride has run away. By the way, the Scott family is very bold. You are going to marry the second daughter of the Scott family, Colleen Scott. But the Scott family married the unloved first daughter Florence to you. Colleen was married to the Hudson family."
As long as they were smart, they would know what was going on after a little thought.
The Scott family played a trick of stealthily changing the bride.
William said on the phone again, "Boss, your grandfather said he would wait for your return to deal with it."
"Ask someone to go to the Scott family to break off the engagement."
After a pause, Alexander added, "Don't need to go hard on them."
"Boss, the Scott family even played tricks on you now. Your wife is married to that guy from the Hudson family. Should we just let it go like that?"
William was very surprised. This was not his boss' style.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get someone to break off the engagement."
William reminded him on the phone, "Boss, you can only lose your wife when she dies, but you have never divorced or broke off an engagement. Three wives of you have already died. If this engagement is broke off and the Logan family finds any clues, all your previous efforts will be in vain."
Alexander pondered for a few seconds, "This one doesn't need to 'die'."
"Boss, do you have a new plan again?" William felt shocked and confused.
Alexander turned aside from the topic under discussion, "Get me a cheaper car."
"Boss, what are you going to do?"
"Be an Uber driver." Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
...
As soon as Florence arrived at the Scott family, she saw Lincoln Scott and Allison respectfully sent off a middle-aged man at the gate.
This person was exactly the one sent by the Logan family to break off the engagement.
The Logan family suddenly wanted to marry a daughter from the Scott family at first, but now they broke off the engagement. The bride was substituted and escaped from the marriage. There was no embarrassment at all for the Logan family. Lincoln was completely muddled.
After the man got in the car and left, Lincoln wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and sternly shouted at Florence, "Florence, look at what you have done. Don't you feel ashamed being here. If it weren't for the Logan family to be magnanimous this time, we would just go bankrupt."
Florence stared at Lincoln with an air of indifference and questioned coldly, "Dad, did you know about the bride substituting last night?"
