Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Marie suddenly understood.

It turns out that Annie did it on purpose.

Annie said those words on purpose to provoke her to steal the file.

And she got free from the case afterward. Then the case now had nothing to do with her.

Even if the truth was revealed, Marie would be the only one to be punished.

Marie looked at Annie in disbelief, as if it was the first time that she had really known this woman.

“Annie, watch your mouth! You got your clothes dirty. It was me who brought you new clothes. You told me in the room that you would

hold Zoe back and not let her go back to her room, and asked me to steal the manuscript for you. You must admit it!”

Annie frowned.

This idiot!

Why was this idiot still holding on to this?

Didn’t this idiot understand that only when she was innocent and stayed outside could she help her out of the jail?

But now Marie just wanted to drag her into the mire. How could there be such a stupid person?

Annie was furious, but she had no idea how she could stop Marie.

She gritted her teeth and said, “I have told you already that I don’t even know what you are talking about.”

Marie nodded in disappointment. “Good, very

good. You refuse to admit it now, huh? Aren’t you afraid that I will tell them everything you have done before?”

Annie’s face changed dramatically.

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

However, Zoe asked playfully, “What kind of things? Tell me. Maybe I won’t call the police, if you can amuse me.”

Marie looked at her and asked, “Are you serious?”

Raising her eyebrows, Zoe said, “As long as I’m sure what you said is true and I’m interested in it, of course I will give you a chance.”

Annie screamed, “Shut up!”

But how could Marie listen to her at this time?

Marie sneered, stared at Annie with resentment and said in a low voice, “Maybe you guys don’t know yet. The pure fairy in your eyes, Annie Gil, is actually a bitch, a mistress, who has stolen her sister’s boyfriend!”

What?

As soon as her words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

A mistress? What did she mean?

Wasn’t Annie’s boyfriend Steven?

It was said that the two of them had been engaged since childhood. How could Annie suddenly become a mistress?

Marie smiled viciously and said, “Surprised, right? In fact, there is nothing to be surprised about, because Syeven’s original fiancee was not her, but her sister, the eldest daughter of the Gil family, Zoe Gil. It was Annie who took away from her elder sister the position of the noble young lady of the family, and even

her sister’s boyfriend! Then she told the public that she was just Steven Anderson’s fiancee. Anyway, they were both just Gils, so those people who didn’t know the truth definitely would trust her.”

Hearing this, even Steven’s face changed.

“Marie, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?”

Marie said coldly, “I’m not crazy!”

There was a slight sound of crying in her voice.

“Annie knows how hard my life is. And it was her idea to begin with. She asked me to steal the manuscript for her, but in the end, she wanted me to be the scapegoat. She knows that even if she stood out to admit it, she wouldn’t be punished severely, but she was even timid enough to let me take all the responsibility.”

“Why! Why should I take all of these? Why should I take the blame for you? You would only be scolded for a few words if you admitted it. But once I don’t tell the truth, I will go to jail!”

“Do you know what it means to be arrested? It means that everything I get now will be ruined because of this! I’m not stupid. Since you want to give up on me and be so selfish, of course I have to fight back!”

At this moment, Annie just wanted to find something to cover Marie’s mouth.

But it was too late. The crowd burst into an uproar, and everyone found the whole thing unbelievable.

Then the way they looked at Annie and Steven carried a hint of contempt.

“How could this be? I always thought Annie and Steven were the right matches. I didn’t expect her to be … a mistress.”

“Unbelievable! And she pretended to be innocent and pure. Now thinking about it, it’s really disgusting.”

“Speaking of this matter, it reminds me of one thing. It seems that Annie and Zoe have the same father but different mothers. Annie’s mother was also a mistress, who even forced the original Mrs. Gil to die!”

“What? Is that true?”

“It’s been years. When I was a student, I heard it from my parents.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Wasn’t the original Mrs. Gil Zoe’s mother?”

“Oh my God! What’s this? A mistress had stolen her mother’s husband, and the mistress’s daughter stole her boyfriend. Zoe is so miserable!”

“If I were born in such a family, I would have been driven crazy!”

Countless discussions almost drowned the whole room.

The faces of the people standing in the living room kept changing.

Marie looked at Zoe cautiously. “Zke, I’ve told you the truth. Can you let me go now?”

Zoe smiled, but her eyes were still cold.

“I thought you were going to say something sensational. It’s not interesting.”

Marie grabbed Steven’s hand. She knew Zoe’s mercy was her last chance. She begged, “You love Steven much, right? I’ve told everyone the truth now. You will have a chance to be with him again in the future. Can you just let me go? I promise you that I won’t help Annie set you up again. I beg you.”

Zoe shook off her hand coldly.

She glanced at Steven, who was standing beside Annie with a livid face, and said in a low voice, “I have never thought of taking back what I have thrown away. As for you,”

She smiled faintly, “That’s enough!”

Marie was stunned for seconds before she realized that Zoe decided to let her go.

She was overjoyed.

On the other hand, when Steven heard her saying that she had never thought of taking back what she had thrown away, he was shocked and his already pale face turned even paler.

Just then, a noise came from outside.

“I heard there was a theft being caught? What happened?”

It was the headmaster of Riverside High School.

The headmaster and other celebrities were coming!

As soon as Annie and Marie heard the headmaster’s voice, their faces changed again.

“Why are you all here? Where is the thief? Didn’t you say you had caught her? Why can’t I see that?”

“Mr. headmaster, the thief is inside!”

The crowd made way for him. An old man with gray hair walked inside surrounded by a group of people.

The headmaster of the Riverside High School, Shew Wright, the eldest son of Mrs. Wright, and the head of the Wright family now.

When he saw Zoe standing in the living room, he was slightly stunned, as if he didn’t expect her to be here. Then he smiled.

“Zoe, it’s you. What happened? Did someone steal your things?”

Today, the whole hotel was booked by the school. He subconsciously thought that the thief was a hotel staff.

Unexpectedly, Zoe pointed at Marie.

“Yes, she is here.”

Marie was stiff.

When she came to her senses, she quickly waved her hand and explained.

“No, no, Mr. headmaster. I didn’t steal anything. I, I just came here to help Annie get something. I have explained it clearly just now.”

Annie said angrily, “You are talking nonsense! There is no truth you’ve said! No one will believe you!”
