Chapter 109 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Oriana never thought that the man would turn out to be Marvin. Back then, she only cared about rescuing the si c k patient, hence she didn’t focus her attention on Marvin. When she returned to LA, she had completely forgotten about the man.

The world was indeed a small place. It turned out that they had already met two years ago.

Oriana took in a deep breathe.

“Then i think that we’re intertwined by fate.”

The corner of Marvin’s lips drew in a faint curved line.

Oriana swiftly added,

“I also went on to become your sister-in-law. It’s really fate that played out.”

Oriana felt awkward after her statement. But all that mattered to her was keeping a safe distance from the brother whom Deacon was jealous and inexplicably suspicious of.

The faint curve on Marvin’s lips hastily vanished. He held his jacket, then he turned around and left.

“Did he just leave?” Oriana felt that the two brothers had such strange temperaments. But to her, it was best that he left. Although Marvin had been of great help to her, she still had an awkward relationship with him.

It was getting late and all the students had returned to their homes, and some, their dormitories.

Afraid that someone might surface, Oriana immediately locked the door of the pharmacy. Once she was done, she took out a test tube and pushed the eye of the needle into the blood vessel in her arm.

The mandala flower poison slowly seeped and advanced into her body.

Deacon’s illness could no longer be delayed. She knew that Deacon was very concerned about his illness. He was afraid that he would get si c k, and he was even more afraid that he would hurt her when he got si c k.

Oriana put down the needle. She could only hear silence. She could feel the poison spread across her body. Soon, she felt her blood vessels itch.

Oriana’s forehead ached and a fountain of sweat appeared on it. She took out a silver needle from ber hair and inserted it into her acupuncture point. The poison had slowly become futile from her fingertips.

A sound suddenly sounded in her ears.

“Who’s there?” Oriana questioned startledly.

“It’s me.” Marvin’s voice sounded.

Why was he back again?

Oriana wanted to stand up, bit a shrill voice suddenly whistled into her eardrum, and her body directly fell on him.

She covered her ears with her hands and curled up in pain.

Outside the pharmacy, Marvin had heard the noise from inside. Oriana had already locked the door.

Marvin raised his right foot and kicked open the door.

Oriana fell to the ground, sweat dripping from her forehead.

“What’s wrong?” Marvin quickly stepped forward and squatted on one knee. He held Oriana’s hand and placed it under his nose as he sniffed it.

“The mandala flower? Where did you get the flower from? And why are you extracting and testing it? Oriana, do you wanna di e?”

Oriana’s eyes darkened. She muttered weakly,

“I’m fine.”

Deacon took out a sharp knife from his trousers pocket and drew a line on her finger. Then he pressed down on her acupuncture point to help detoxify her faster.

When the last drop of poison was extracted, Oriana closed her eyes as she fell to the ground.

“Oriana!” Marvin swiftly reached out and Oriana fell into his embrace.

Oriana fell into Marvin’s embrace, her pale face pressed against his lean chest.

The girl in Marvin’s arms seemed to have no bones. Her sweet scent was still the same from two years ago.

Marvin lowered his handsome eyelids and slowly raised his hand to wrap around her shoulders.

At the moment, someone stood outside watching them. It was Pamela.

Pamela was here. She wanted sharing her good news with Oriana, but when she arrived, she met the scene. Oriana was hugged by a man.

Pamela quickly covered her mou th and walked quietly to the side as she hid. She knew that Marvin was a student in the institute.

However, she didn’t know who Marvin was, since she wasn’t from a wealthy family. Marvin was really handsome, but Pamela prided herself on not being shallow.

Pamela didn’t expect that Oriana would have an affair with Marvin.

Oriana was married, not to anyone, but Deacon Armstead. Pamela’s heart was beating wildly. She felt that her luck had really arrived as she caught Oriana.

Without wasting a second, she took out her phone and took a picture of Marvin hugging Oriana. She quickly searched for Deacon’s number and forwarded it to him.

After that, Pamela hid properly as she awaited the show.

The Rolls-Royce phantom quietly parked outside the gate of the Ivory Council. Deacon came to pick up Oriana.

Deacon hadn’t slept all night. He was wearing a black high collar short and a black coat.

He took out his phone and went through his chat with Oriana. She was the only account that he followed.

He had been in the company the entire time, constantly looking at his phone, as he awaited her message. But after hours of Oriana’s message not popping in, Deacon wondered what she was doing.

He called the Red Villa, but grandma had informed him that Oriana hadn’t returned yet.

It was already so late, why didn’t she return home?

Deacon had the urge to smoke again. His grandmother had just teased him for going all out to search for Oriana.

Deacon pursed his lips and laughed at himself. It was him who was angry. Now he was afraid that she wouldn’t talk to him. He was afraid that she would run away with others.

Deacon was about to place a call to Oriana, but a message popped in. He clicked on the message. and saw the photo that Pamela had sent.

Deacon’s deep pupils narrowed, and his tall and straight body suddenly froze.

He looked at the photo several times. It was his Mrs. Armstead, who was in Marvin’s arms!

There was silence in the pharmacy. Marvin gently hugged Oriana. After a while, Oriana slowly regained her consciousness.

The poison from the mandala flower was too strong. Due to Oriana being a medical genius. her body was almost invulnerable to the poison. If it were someone else, he or she would have died in no time.

The drug test was not near successful. Oriana concluded that she would give it a second try.

Oriana wanted opening her eyes, but the darkness still overwhelmed her. She felt a hand pressing against her shoulder, and Marvin’s voice sounded above her head,

“Are you alright?”

Oriana realized that she was leaning against Marvin’s chest. She was shocked and quickly reached out to push him away.

Her hands seemed to be patting his chest, as she was devoid of strength.

A low and cold voice suddenly sounded,

“Wow, what a beautiful show!”

Oriana quickly looked up. Her vision gradually became clearer. She sighted a tall body leaning against the door. Deacon was here!

Deacon’s body was covered with a layer of cold frost. Those deep, narrow eyes were terrifying to watch. Oriana could see the murderous intent in them.

“Mr. Armstead.” Oriana let out a cry, but Deacon had already walked over with his long legs. In no time, a sturdy fist smashed into Marvin’s face.

Marvin’s noise instantly dripped of blood as he fell to the ground. Another fist landed on his face.

“Marvin, do you know who she is? She’s my wife!” Deacon growled.

Marvin wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, and looked at Deacon with his gloomy eyes.

“A monster?”

Deacon licked his dry lips. He moved swiftly and punched Deacon several times.

Oriana was so terrified. It was the first time of her seeing Deacon hit someone. Her limb body struggled to stand up from the ground. She finally summoned up strength and stood up. She rushed over and hugged Deacon from behind.

“Mr. Armstead, that’s enough, please.”

Being hugged from behind greatly restricted Deacon’s movements. He straightened his back. and roared coldly,

“Let go! Do you hear me?”

You really made me watch a good show.

“I won’t let you go. You’ve misunderstood. We weren’t doing anything! Just stop hitting him!” Oriana didn’t dare to let go, as she knew that his emotions were out of control.

Deacon’s chest heaved up and down like a wild beast. He turned around and grabbed Oriana’s wrist as he dragged her away.

Marvin quickly stood up and grabbed Oriana’s other wrist. Oriana was grabbed by the two men. at the same time.
