Chapter 181 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Alpha was dressed in black. As a man in his fifties, Alpha was restrained and reserved. The breeze blew the coal on his body.

“Miss Hendrix, you’ve worked hard this time. I already sent someone to erase everything about you in Los Angeles. From now on, there’ll be no such person as Oriana Hendrix in Los Angeles. No one will ever mention you to Deacon. He’ll be fine.” Alpha stated domineeringly.

Oriana nodded.

“Okay.”

With that, she stepped forward, lowered her head and got into the back seat. She reached out with her small hand and held Deacon’s handsome face. She kissed his forehead gently.

A hot tears rolled down her cheeks and landed on Deacon’s eyes. His eyelids moved, but he didn’t wake up.

“Mr. Armstead, you must be happy.” Oriana mumbled as she burst into tears.

Alpha stood aside quietly as lie watched Oriana. He didn’t disturb her as he allowed her bid Deacon goodbye.

Oriana withdrew her arms from Deacon and got out of the car. He looked at Alpha and said to him,

“Mr. Alpha, there’ll be no future between us. Don’t forget the promise that you made to me. He had spent his entire life healing from his childhood trauma. Father’s love is priceless. Love him well.”

Alpha stated at Oriana for a moment, after a while he asked,

“Is there anything else?”

Oriana thought about Mrs. Samantha in the Red Villa, but she decided not to make mention of the old lady. She concluded that since Deacon was healed, the old lady would naturally be fine.

Oriana shook her head.

“Nothing more.”

“Then we’ll go ahead.” Alpha made to enter the car.

“Wait a minute.” Oriana suddenly stopped him.

Alpha halted and turned around.

Oriana’s eyes were filled with tears, and her pale lips trembled. She still couldn’t restrain herself from asking.

“What kind of a person is she? I mean Deacon’s fiance.”

Some time ago, in Alpha’s office, he had asked her if she wanted knowing about Deacon’s fiance. At that time, she wasn’t interested and had left his presence. But now, she finally couldn’t help but ask.

She wanted knowing the kind of girl who would take her place, the girl who was going to have her Mr. Armstead.

Alpha seemed to have expected her question.

“She is the daughter of the richest man in Imperial. She is beautiful, elegant, knowledgeable and self-disciplined. She is a perfect match for Deacon.” Alpha replied.

“Does she like Mr. Armstead?” This was what Oriana was most concerned about.

Alpha nodded.

“She likes him very much. She has been awaiting Deacon’s return. Irregardless of his condition, she still loves him.”

Oriana felt satisfied at the reply that Alpha gave to her. It was exactly what she wanted hearing. His response should have made her happy, but she only nodded and cried.

Alpha, got into the car and sped off with Deacon. Oriana stood quietly as she watched the car disappear from her sight.

Oriana squatted slowly and hugged her knees.

“Goodbye Mr. Armstead.” Oriana couldn’t restrain herself as she cried bitterly. She looked just like an abandoned child.

After waiting for a while, Mrs. Kathy reached out to help Oriana.

“Miss Oriana, let’s go home. It’s cold out here.” Mrs. Kathy muttered sadly.

The moment her hands touched Oriana, Oriana collapsed into Mrs. Kathy’s embrace.

Mrs. Kathy stared at Oriana in fright and asked,

“Miss Oriana, what’s wrong with you?”

Oriana was a healer, one who was deeply rooted in ancient practices. She knew that she dying. Since the toxins in her body had invaded her heart, she knew that she had stepped into the gate of hell with one foot

However, Oriana didn’t want to die.

Oriana reminisced on her short life on earth, infact, she still has a lot of things to do and accomplish.

Oriana suddenly remembered the treasure box at Dean Sebastian’s office. It was the treasure box that her mother had left behind.

“Aunt Kathy, I’m going to the Ivory Council now. Please take me to Dean Sebastian Robert.” Oriana quickly grabbed tightly onto Mrs. Kathy’s hand.

Mrs. Kathy nodded.

“Alright, Miss Oriana, we’ll go now.”

Mrs. Kathy was driving, and Oriana sat in the back seat. She was surrounded by the few neighbors who took care of her. There was a black Lamborghini car speeding behind them.

“Kathy, there’s a car following us.” Mrs. Sandra informed Mrs. Kathy as she stared out through the back window.

Mrs. Kathy looked through the rearview mirror, and there was indeed a car following them.

Mrs. Kathy nodded and said,

“I’ll get rid of them. We have to protect Miss Oriana.”

Mrs. Kathy stepped on the accelerator and changed lanes. The Lamborghini car nimbly slipped into the traffic and disappeared at the fork in the road.

The red light was already on, and the car behind slammed into the brakes. The loud braking sound was extremely harsh.

The man in black quickly took out his phone and made a call.

“Hello, sir, the lady driving Miss Hendrix has extraordinary driving skills, she is definitely not mortal. We lost them.”

Soon, Alpha’s low voice sounded from the other end,

“How about the others in the village?”

“When the Camry car conveying Miss Hendrix drove out, they had all evacuated the village. Now the village is empty.”

There was a moment of silence. After a while, the man in black asked,

“Sir, do you want us to still follow them?”

“No need, let’s return to Imperial.” Alpha replied in his usual calm tone.

“Okay, sir.”

The Ivory Council..

Dean Sebastian was shocked when he saw the dying Oriana.

“Oriana, what’s wrong with you?” He asked as he checked Oriana’s pulse.

“Oriana, you’ve been poisoned, and the poison had spread to your entire body. If you heart is completely destroyed by the poison, then even G od himself can’t save you.”

Of course, Oriana was fully aware of her physical condition. The only thing that could prevent her from dying was the treasure box that her mother had left behind.

“Dean Sebastian, don’t worry about my body, okay? Please bring out the treasure box. I want to’give it a last try.” Oriana replied weakly.
