Posted on March 12, 2025 by admin

Filed to story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

“Alpha, be careful!”

Annabelle, subconsciously exclaimed.

The car rushed towards them suddenly, and Alpha’s reaction was quick enough. He quickly turned the left steering wheel, and his forehead directly hit the windshield, but the car also stopped. “Alpha, are you alright? You’re injured!”

Annabelle quickly leaned over and raised her hand to support his forehead. “Does it hurt?”

Alpha raised his head and suddenly met Annabelle’s beautiful eyes. Now, she stared at him. nervously and with concern.

Annabelle quickly realized that she had overreacted. Her hand was still on his forehead, and she quickly withdrew her hand.

At this moment, the driver’s door of the car in front of them opened, and Bounty walked out.

It was Bounty.

Annabelle had not seen Bounty for many years. Now, through the windshield, she could clearly see that Bounty’s eyes, which were filled with hatred, were fixed on her.

If it wasn’t for the huge hatred that Bounty had for Annabelle, she would not have driven so frantically and forced their car to stop.

Annabelle reached out to open the passenger door.

But Alpha’s low voice sounded, “I’ll go down, you stay in the car.”

Annabelle turned to look at Alpha, “Your sister is looking for me. I’ll go down and meet her.”

Alpha pursed his lips and his voice became colder. “Is there a reason for her to look for you? Do you want to stimulate her further?

Annabelle curled her fingers, as she heard the irony in his words, she calmly lowered her head.

Alpha opened the driver’s door and went out. He also locked the car, afraid that she would get out of the car.

Alpha walked up to Bounty, “Bounty, are you crazy? Do you want to kill us?”

Bounty looked at Annabelle in the car, then she looked at Alpha, “Brother, get Annabelle out of the car, I have something to tell her!”

“If you have anything to say to her, then just say it to me,”

Alpha replied indifferently.

“Bro!”

Bounty cried out emotionally, “It’s been so many years, why haven’t you changed at all?”

Bounty also saw that after more than twenty years later, Annabelle had not changed too.

Annabelle was once a talented woman. Her beautiful face and attractive talent had never withered away. What made Bounty infuriated the most was that Annabelle was still exactly as she before.

A woman in her forties still lived like a young girl. Although with completely different characters, Joyce and Anabelle still enjoyed their youthfulness.

Joyce was naturally playful, smart, and brilliant. She took care of herself, while Annabelle was spoiled by a man. She was spoiled by Alpha!

More than thirty years ago, Annabelle married Alpha. Alpha gave her everything she needed and also protected her.

No matter how much turbulence happened in those years, even if the world was turned upside down, he would reach out for her. He definitely abandoned everything and shielded her behind him.

For so many years, Annabelle had loved only a particular career, and that was jewelry designing.

Therefore, Annabelle was still cold and reserved, and she didn’t seem to be affected by the sundries of the world. She had married Alpha at the age of nineteen. Even now, she was still living the baby girl lifestyle.

Bounty really did not understand why Annabelle still lived that way, and she didn’t.

Could it be that the difference between Annabelle’s life and hers was because of Alpha?

Could it be as result of her not meeting a man like Alpha?

Alpha looked at Bounty’s fierce expression and he frowned.

“Control your emotions, and think clearly about what you want to say to me. We don’t need to communicate like this. I’ll go ahead now.”

Alpha turned to leave.

But Bounty quickly ran over to block Alpha. She saw the wound on Alpha’s forehead due to the collision. He was not bleeding, but the wound had swollen.

“Brother, you’re injured. You turned the steering wheel to the left just now, didn’t you? Look at it, see for yourself. You just can’t bear to hurt Annabelle a little bit. You’d rather turn the steering wheel to the left and hurt yourself!!

“Bro wake up a little. That woman doesn’t love you at all. She doesn’t have any feelings for you at all. You forcibly married her and took her home. Even if you imprisoned her, she still climbed into my husband’s bed and cheated on you!”

Alpha quietly listened till she finished speaking. His face was devoid of emotions, and his pair of gloomy and narrow eyes gazed at her, “Finished?”

he asked.

“I’m not done! Bro, it was Annabelle who killed my child. My child was nine months old. He was a boy…”

“Brother, after so many years, I still dream of my dead child every night. I dream of him crying and running over to me for help!”

“I can’t have children anymore. I don’t even have the basic rights of a woman. I can’t be a mother. I’ll never have children of my own. How could you be so cruel to me? What did I do wrong?!”

Annabelle couldn’t restrain her emotions, as she yelled at Alpha.

In the end, she was his own sister. Saying her words didn’t hurt him would definitely be a lie. Alpha stretched out his big hand and pressed Bounty’s trembling shoulder, “Bounty, calm down.

first.”

“Brother, how do you want me to calm down? I’m your sister. Blood is thicker than water, but you’ve already been fascinated by Annabelle. At that time, my child died, and you still protected her. She stole you away from us!”

The relationship between the two siblings had been wounded back then, and a permanent crack had appeared.

Alpha pursed his lips. At this moment, a beautiful and sweet voice suddenly said, “Principal Bounty, what a coincidence, why are you here?”

Alpha looked up and saw Oriana.

Bounty also saw Oriana. Today, Oriana was wearing a short, black, fitted dress. And there was a bright warm smile on her face.

Bounty’s broken and intense emotions slowly calmed down. She wiped the tears from her face, then forced a smile, “Oriana, why are you here?”

Bounty’s love for Oriana was real.

Oriana stepped forward, she stretched out her hand to hold Bounty’s arm. Bounty’s entire body was stiff, her skin was also cold.

Oriana smiled and said, “Principal Bounty, I heard that you were here, so I came over to see you. It’s been more than three years since we last saw each other.”

Bounty could feel Oriana’s warmth. Her clear eyes looked at her and she blinked playfully, conveying endless warmth.

Bounty’s stiffened body slowly relaxed. She raised her hand to straighten the messy hair beside her cheeks.

“I haven’t seen you in years, my dear.”

Oriana looked at Alpha, and said, “Uncle, Principal Bounty and I haven’t seen each other for a long time. We would like to catch up for a while. If you have something to do, you can go ahead.”

How could Bounty not see that Oriana was helping Alpha and Annabelle to get away? But she had no way to reject this warm and delicate girl, so she could only temporarily let Alpha go.

“Brother, let’s talk next time.”

Alpha looked at Oriana, then he looked at Bounty, he turned around and got into the luxurious car, and drove away with Annabelle.

When the Annabelle and Alpha left, Bounty patted Oriana little hand, “Oriana, I’ve let them you’ve gotten your wish.”

1. go.

Now

Oriana held Bounty’s cold hand. “Principal Bounty, I admit that I wanted you to let them go, but I hope you can move on too.”

Bounty’s eyes suddenly turned red. She shook her head sadly and dazedly. “For so many years, I’ve lived a very painful life. Teach me, help me to move on.”

Oriana was also a mum. Three years ago, she gave birth to her children, so she could understand the hurt and pain that Bounty had suffered. It was a type of pain that was most difficult to heal

However, there were so many doubts about what happened many years ago. Oriana knew her Aunt Annabelle too well. She was certain that Aunt Annabelle was definitely not that kind of a person! “Principal Bounty, I can help you, but you have to open up your heart and tell me everything you knew and saw back then.”

Oriana knew that what happened years ago was a nightmare for Bounty. She wasn’t sure if Bounty would be able to confide in her.

However, she had to listen to Bounty’s own words, because she was the witness back then.

More importantly, Bounty had suffered great psychological trauma. She had a very serious mental illness!

The fact that she had lost control of her emotions in front of Alpha just now was the best proof, but Bounty had not accepted to see a therapist for so many years.

Old Mrs. Samantha, Alpha, and even Annabelle weren’t aware of her illness.

Her condition was very bad. In the past few years, Bounty could still pretend to live as a sane person, but now that

Annabelle was back, Oriana was afraid that Bounty’s psychological trauma would continue to amplify. In the end, what would become of her?

If something happened to Bounty, then the Armstead family would really be affected.

Therefore, Oriana wanted to take this opportunity to get Bounty to open up and tell her everything. She wanted to slowly heal the scars in her heart, and personally unravel the truth of what really happened.

Bounty’s face was pale. If it was anyone else, she would not be willing to cooperate.

But the person before her was Oriana. Now, Orianas’s soft body temperature pressed onto her cold skin. And her clear eyes were full of strength, constantly comforting her and encouraging her.

Bounty pondered if she should she give herself a chance.
