Chapter 238 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Posted on February 12, 2024 by admin

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Deacon didn’t sleep well. In the morning, he left The Red Villa to go to work without breakfast.

“Madam, what happened to the young master recently? Why is he so capricious?” Betty couldn’t help but mutter to the old lady.

The old lady clearly saw through everything, saying, “I think he’s been a little angry lately.”

Be angry?

Betty was about to adjust the recent meals and focus on bland foods, so she went upstairs to Deacon’ bedroom to clean up.

After entering, she found the large bed cluttered. On the soft carpet were piles of paper and dirty clothes that Deacon had changed.

Betty was the one who used to come here, the old face instantly turned red, “Old lady, you are right, young master has been really angry lately!”

Deacon went to the company. The whole Armstead family knows that the CEO’s mood isn’t good today, so everyone takes turns caring, afraid of becoming a target for anger.

In the afternoon, Deacon received a text from Crystal, “Deacon, are you busy today? Can you come to school to pick me up?”

Deacon threw his phone on the table, seconds later he picked it up again and replied.

Deacon took his car keys and drove straight to Bright Star.

The luxury car Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked on the side of the road. Deacon didn’t get out of the car. He slowly slid the driver’s window down a little, his narrow, deep eyes casually glancing in Watson’s direction.

Now that it was time to end school, the students of Watson were leaving one by one.

Deacon saw Alicia, but Oriana wasn’t with her.

Alicia and some girls came, chatting as they walked,

“Alicia, why don’t I see Oriana today?”

“Oriana got sick and took a leave of absence.”

“What, Oriana is sick?”

“Yes, Oriana has a high fever of 42 degrees. I heard that she is still in a coma. I’m going to Hendrix’s house to visit Oriana, do you want to come with me?”

“Yes, of course! Why is Oriana sick at this time? The Academy of Sciences will come to recruit talent in two days. Didn’t Oriana always want to get into the Academy of Sciences? After working hard for a long time, Oriana suddenly fell ill.”

“Do you think Oriana was scared in the bar last night? Last night, Mr. Armstead and Mr. Rodriguez fought, I still get scared thinking about it now. At that time, Mr. Armstead even pushed Oriana!”

The group of girls left one by one. Deacon squeezed the steering wheel with his large hand. Was she sick, and had a fever of 42 degrees?

Last night at the Imperial bar, he accidentally pushed her. He was so angry that he couldn’t control himself.

At this time, the passenger door opened, Crystal got in: “Deacon, how long have you been waiting?”

“Not long, I’ll take you home.”

“Deacon, shall we go to dinner together?”

“I have a meeting later. I don’t have time today.”

Crystal looked at the man beside her. His handsome face is cold, his whole body is covered with a layer of ice, it can be seen that his mood is not good.

“Deacon, is the engagement thing you told me about yesterday true? Or did you just tease me?”

Deacon pursed his thin lips and said in a deep, magnetic voice: “Currently Imperial rumors say that the Armstead family and Robert family are engaged. Crystal, the engagement is real. I can marry you. However, I don’t like you. We are just getting married. I just need a Mrs. Armstead.”

What was he saying?

Crystal was stunned. He said he didn’t like her…

Crystal already knew that this man was cruel, but she still turned pale. The sweetness of engagement turned into shame and humiliation.

“Crystal, you are the daughter of the richest family. You have many choices. You don’t need to suffer because of me. You should think carefully.”

“No need to think. I’ve made up my mind. Deacon, let’s get engaged, the sooner the better!” Crystal said.

Deacon thought for a moment. Ever since Oriana appeared in his life, his life has been turned upside down. She directly affected his emotions, making him go crazy and out of control. He hates himself like this.

He wants to calm himself down, get back to his normal path, and live the life he should be. Before her arrival, the wedding of Armstead and Robert was also planned.

That’s it, forget about her.

Deacon nodded, “Okay.”

At the Hendrix house.

Oriana regained consciousness the next day. Tom and Mia frantically thanked G od, quickly helping Oriana up, “Oriana, you’re awake at last. You scared the hell out of us! If you don’t wake up, we’ll throw those damn ed doctors away!”

Oriana was leaning against the mattress, her face pale and bloodless. She was very sick, curling her lips weakly. “Dad, Mom, I’m fine, I’m fine now.”

“Oriana, your health is so good, why did you suddenly have a fever? 42 degrees!”

Why did she suddenly have a fever?

She doesn’t know either.

She just felt that something she had held close to her heart had suddenly disappeared and been taken from her life, this sense of total loss that made her dull and dizzy.

“I must have caught a cold. Anyway, I’m okay. By the way, Mom, and Dad, when is the selection for the Academy of Sciences held?”

“Oriana, tomorrow is the science academy selection. If you don’t wake up, you’ll miss it!”

What? Tomorrow?

Oriana scolded herself inside. It’s useless for her to want to die for a man. She died for Deacon once and left her mission behind. This time she almost repeated the same old mistake. No, she has to cheer up quickly!

Oriana’s clear pupils quickly revealed a ray of light, and the whole body seemed to come to life. She beamed, “Mom, the day we’ve all been waiting for has finally come. Academy of Sciences, I’m coming. Morp, I’m coming!”

Both Tom And Mia burst into laughter, and they saw Oriana as brilliant as ever. She really recovered!

Today is the selection date of the Academy of Sciences. This time, the top five universities in the entrance exam all gathered in one place, then entered the office according to their number of students to receive the selection test.

Alicia and the others surrounded Oriana, saying.

“Oriana, I heard that the number for this selection is quite small, only three.”

“By the way, Oriana, you got a perfect score of 750 on the entrance exam and are now famous throughout Imperial. I believe you are definitely one of the three.”

“Yes, Oriana, we all believe in you.”
