Posted on March 12, 2025 by admin

Filed to story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Zhuri immediately said angrily, “Raven wake up, it’s already time you woke up! You just got out and you’re asking about North, sorry to burst your bubble, but she hadn’t even attempted to visit you these past few days. She’s still filming on the set, and her life went on as usual. I didn’t realize that North’s heart was so cruel before. She hurt you and she didn’t care about it!”

Raven did not find the person he was looking for, so he calmly retracted his gaze, as his beautiful eyelids droop.

“Raven, let’s quickly head back.”

Mr. Domino said calmly. This time, Raven did not refuse, he raised his legs and walked away. North stood in the dark corner and watched them leave until the image of the luxurious car disappeared from her line of sight. She stood in a daze for a while. Instead of taking a taxi, she walked home by herself. She had left her hotel room in a hurry. And she did not bring a coat. Now that the cold wind was blowing in at night, North shivered. She didn’t know why she came. However, she really wanted to see him. She was ill, and her condition was getting worse. Suddenly, she was afraid. She was afraid that one day she would forget him.

North pulled her red lips into a light and self deprecating arc. Over the years, Raven had already branded himself deeply into her soul. And no matter what, she couldn’t forget about him.

She really hated herself. While reciting the line in the movie, “I have nothing left, but myself, so I have to guard my heart tightly.”

North felt like an hypocrite, because she had gave her heart out. She felt sorry for many people. She felt sorry for her dad, mum and brother. She was also for Penelope, who died in front of her. She really hated herself. She didn’t like herself anymore. At this moment, North’s footsteps suddenly stopped. She looked down and saw that the diamond anklet she was wearing was gone. It was given to her by Raven. She wore it all the time.

But it was gone now.

How could it have disappeared?

Where was her anklet?

North quickly turned around and ran back the same way. It must have fallen on the road just now.

She carefully looked for it on the road, but could not find it.

North felt cold all over her body. She didn’t seem to be able to breathe anymore. Why had she lose her anklet?

No, she had to find it.

She returned to the spot and ran back and forth between the police station and the road several times..

It was extremely cold tonight. Because she was extremely beautiful, the passers-by’s eyes were all glued to her.

She didn’t seem to know what she was looking for. She looked focused and anxious, as if she would keep running around if she couldn’t find the anklet.

At this moment, North let out a cry of surprise, and fell to the ground.

It turned out that she was running too fast, and she was wearing high heels, so she accidentally twisted her ankle.

North’s delicate ankle was already red and swollen. She couldn’t take the pain anymore. Her eyes immediately turned red.

But at the moment, she couldn’t care about the pain. She was struggling to get up. She wanted to find the anklet.

At this moment, a hand was stretched out to her, her anklet lying quietly in that person’s palm.

North’s eyes instantly lit up, like shining stars. She took the anklet and held it tightly in her palm.

The huge joy of having found something she lost, instantly overwhelmed her, and a bit of grievance spread from the bottom of her heart.

North sat on the ground and curled up her legs. Her eyes were so hot that tears flowed. She buried her wet face into her knees and cried.

It was Miss Jones who stood before her.

When Miss Jones realized that there was no one in the room, she had already guessed that North went to see Raven. She was worried, so she drove after her.

Now that North was sitting on the ground, hugging herself and choking with sobs, Miss Jones remembered when Raven had asked her to be North’s manager some years ago.

Miss Jones was an excellent manager. She did not give him an answer. She had to see North herself before she could give her reply.

Then, she saw North

North, who was only eighteen years old at the time, was sitting in a small rental house. There was a window in the rental house. She hugged her knees and sat in front of the window, looking up at the sun. At that time, Miss Jones was shocked. She did not know how to describe North. But she could see how tender and delicate North was.

Miss Jones brought North back with her. Instead of using a vehicle, they decided to take a walk on the street.

North had suddenly stopped. Her gaze were fixed on an artiste on the street in a daze.

“North, do you want to sing a song?”

“Can i?”

North asked softly.

“Of course.”

Miss Jones walked over and exchanged a few words with the artiste. Then, she took out some money from her pocket, and gave it to the artist. The artist went on to hand the guitar to North.

Miss Jones handed the guitar to North, “North, play a song. After you return home, you will be a brand new person. Say goodbye to the past. Before you leave, sing the song that you want to sing the most.”

North sat on the high chair and placed the guitar in front of her. Her fingers gently played the guitar.

Maybe she didn’t know what she wanted to sing, so she just casually sang.

Put out the cigarette

It ain’t good for the body.

Although it was difficult to spend the night thinking of you,

鈥?/p>

I can’t wait to see the pictures of us lugging.

But I don’t want to see you.

I want to hide it behind the frame.

I’ll be in a better mood

This way, I can still smile and be apart from you.

North might not know what she was singing about, but Miss Jones, and everyone in the room could tell.

The bustling and flashy city streets suddenly became quiet. Everyone turned their heads and looked ather.

North was wearing a simple blue pleated skirt.

Hearing North’s voice, which conveyed a lot of emotions, the onlookers felt like crying.

North was still playing and singing.

Looking back at this prosperous world,

Every moment of loving you is like a subway passing by.

Tears that I said would not fall, have fallen.

Now my eyes are aching

I love you

But I’m out of danger.

She sang these last two words over and over again.

Even the tears that she said would not fall, were already streaming down her eyes.

Miss Jones looked at North, who was helpless and sad on the street. She understood that North still loved Raven.

Miss Jones draped a coat over North’s shoulders, “North, we’re done crying, let’s of back.”

North sobbed for a while, then she raised her head. Her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was still pale. Like a child who had made a mistake, she whispered with a trembling cry. “Miss Jones, I’ve sprained my foot…”

Miss Jones squatted down. She didn’t know what Raven would do if he was there. She raised her hand and gently touched North’s forehead, “It’s okay, it’s not your fault. We’ll deal with it.”

“Okay,”

North nodded.

Miss Jones stared at the diamond anklet that North was still holding tightly in her palm. “North, were you looking for your anklet on the street just now? During the filming today, Director Ronald asked you to take off the anklet, and you kept it with me. Did you forget?”

“Oh, I really forgot.”

North replied calmly.

Miss Jones didn’t think too much about it. Recently, something happened to Raven. And it had taken a toll on North’s mental health. Hence, it was normal for North to forget some things.

“North, let’s go back.”

Miss Jones gently and carefully helped North up. She felt like she was leading a lost kitten home. North was really pitiful. If Raven knew about it, Miss Jones wondered how he would behave.

The Domino family’s mansion.

The luxurious business car drove all the way to the Domino family’s mansion. The servants had already prepared a sumptuous dinner.

The family sat in the dining hall, as they had dinner, Old Mr. Domino said,

“Raven, although you’re out, there’s still a lot of mess to clean up. Randy Isn’t ready to leg go. The company’s stock price still needs to be maintained.”

Raven elegantly sliced the steak with a knife and fork.

The atmosphere between Mr. Domino and Raven suddenly became a little tense. This time, because he had gotten into trouble because of North, Mr. Domino was very angry. But, he held back his anger, and acted calm.

But Raven’s attitude was too indifferent. After he came out, it wouldn’t have been a problem if he did not apologize. But his attitude was still arrogant and the only person he asked of was North.
