Chapter 154 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

“Let’s go to bed together.”

Deacon fingers quickly softened and the cigarette which was stuck between his fingers fell to the ground. Oriana stretched out her hand and grabbed the tie around his neck.

Deacon was dragged over by Oriana. She pulled his tie like a savage girlfriend.

Their knees bumped into the edge of the bed, and they fell into the soft bed.

Oriana loosened his tie and wrapped her two small hands around his neck and kissed him passionately.

Deacon rested his hands on the sheets and his look was passive. He didn’t expect her to coax him even after he was rude and cruel to her.

He really didn’t know how he could completely push her away. But he knew that his self-control was already collapsing

Deacon’s eyes were nostalgic. This was their wedding room, and it had alot of happy memories.

He clenched the sheet tightly and then released it. Deacon closed his eyes and shuttled his hands into her long hair, and deepened the kiss.

His body clamored for her, and he really wanted holding her tight.

Oriana hugged him and turned over, and then she sat boldly on his sturdy waist.

‘Mr. Armstead, I wasn’t trying to make trouble a while ago. I was only angry, okay? You’re not allowed to allow Pamela get close to you in the future.” As she spoke, her hands slid down and anded on his expensive belt.

Deacon raised his hand and covered his eyes, then he reached out and forcibly held her hands.

Oriana froze for a second. It seemed to her like things were changing, and again, she was suppressed by him.

Deacon held onto her hand. He stared at her for a while, but did nothing.

Oriana looked at him in confusion.

“Mr. Armstead, what’s wrong with you? Let’s do what couples do tonight. I’m ready. Don’t you want me?”

“I want you so badly. I want every inch it you.” Deacon replied inwardly.

She was his wife. Even if the marriage was on the process of coming to an end, he should have taken her virginity away. He really should not refuse her now. But Deacon decided not to touch her.

After the divorce, she was bound to be re-marry. In the near future, she would meet a better man than him. He didn’t want that man to despise her because of this. She was still perfect. He cherished and cared for her like a baby. Hence he didn’t want to leave any traces of himself on her.

Deacon lowered his head and buried his handsome face in her long hair.

“You’re afraid that I won’t give you part of your money without this, right?” Deacon muttered coldly.

The smile on Oriana’s face instantly faded and she became pale. Even her body quickly stiffened.

His cold voice sounded h oars ely close to her ear.

“Don’t worry, although you haven’t helped me earn a penny, I’ve always been generous to women, and I’ll divide the properties and money evenly. Marriage is a sex trade. You sleep with me, and I pay you. Although we haven’t carried out the last step, we’ve literally done everything that need to be done. I won’t cuddle and romance you for free.”

With that, Deacon pulled away from her and got out of the bed. He placed a document on the table. “Divorce Agreement’ was written boldly on it.

“Go through it and sign it once you’re done.” He said without a trace of emotion.

“By the way, before we finalize the divorce, I hope you can keep this a secret from my grandmother. My grandma sincerely likes you. Don’t try to use her to pacify me, Oriana. If I find out that you dare to involve my grandma in this, I won’t take it kindly with you.”

Deacon opened the bedroom door and stepped out.

Oriana froze on the bed. All the enthusiasm that she had that night had totally been extinguished by him. She sat up and went to get the document from the table.

She read the title of the document and final accepted the reality. Deacon was not joking. He really wanted to divorce her.

Oriana’s eyes burned from her staring at the document. The document slowly slipped from her hands, and her eyes instantly clouded with tears.

Deacon went to the study room. He hastily reached out and brushed off all the documents on the desk to the ground.

He ripped off the tie around his neck and threw it to the carpet.

Deacon shut his eyes and swiftly opened them again, his eyes had completely reddened.

Deacon knew that his m ental state was deteriorating, and he was displaying the symptoms of his sickness again.

All he wanted was to rush back to bedroom and be by Oriana’s side. He was feeling really uncomfortable, and his mind was filled with Oriana’s beautiful face.

Deacon suddenly began sweating. He stood swiftly as he couldn’t control himself again anymore. He opened the drawer and took out a bottle of sleeping pills.

He opened the bottle and poured three sleeping pills into his mouth and swallowed them.

Deacon hoped for the sleeping pills to be effective. Because he wanted going to sleep and not have to disturb Oriana.

Dawn the next day.

Oriana headed downstairs and saw Mrs. Samantha setting the dinning time. The old lady smiled lovingly and said,

“Oriana, you’re awake. What’s wrong with your eyes? Why are they swollen?” She halted and focused her attention on Oriana’s eyes.

Oriana had cried for a very long time the previous night, and her entire eye socket was swollen. Although she had placed a hot towel on it, it was still very swollen.

“Grandma, it’s nothing serious. I was writing my thesis, and I had to stay up late. I probably didn’t get enough rest.”

What sort of thesis has to be written at night? You can write it during the day. You’re not allowed to stay up late in the future. Not having enough sleep will affect your level of production in a day. Endeavor to get enough sleep, okay?” Madam Samantha advised lovingly.

Oriana nodded with a sad smile. She didn’t want Mrs. Samantha to be aware of the problem between her and Deacon. Even if she wasn’t warned by Deacon the previous night, she still would have kept it a secret.

Phoebe meowed and suddenly ran over.

Oriana bent and hugged Phoebe in her arms. She caressed Phoebe’s soft fur dotingly.

“By the way, Oriana, why isn’t Deacon up yet? He rarely wakes up this late.” Mrs. Samantha observed.

Irregardless of their problem, Oriana was still very worried about Deacon’s condition. She couldn’t help. but wonder if he was able to have some sleep.

“Grandma, I’ll go check up on him.” Oriana carried Phoebe and headed upstairs to the study room

Once she had arrived at the door of the study, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.

Deacon still wasn’t awake. The amount of sleeping pills that he had taken the previous night was overdose.

Unexplainably, he heard the knock on the door, and his eyes quickly fluttered open.

He had fallen asleep on the sofa. Immediately, he sat up and his head ached immensely. Without having to look in the mirror, Deacon knew that he looked extremely bad.

The knock landed on the door again, and in the next second, the door was pushed open. Oriana’s beautiful figure appeared beside the door, and her clear eyes looked into the study room.

Deacon looked up and his eyes met hers. Today, Oriana was clothed in a long, light, yellow dress. Her long hair was tucked behind her earlobes.

Deacon was totally caught off guard by Oriana’s presence. He didn’t expect her to show up in the study room.

Oriana stood by the door and looked at him, but she didn’t walk in.

“Grandma asked me to check up on you.” Oriana muttered calmly.

“Understood.” Deacon lifted up the blanket which was on his body, and he found out that the sleeping pill was still in his hand. He had forgotten to place it back in the drawer.

Oriana walked in slowly and asked.

“Are you alright? How was your sleep? Can I check your pulse?” Oriana was about to move closer to him.

Deacon narrowed his eyes, and quickly covered the sleeping pill with the quilt.

Oriana halted alongside Phoebe.

Deacon didn’t want her to see the pill, and he also didn’t need her to check his pulse. He really didn’t want her caring for him anymore.

“You don’t understand what privacy means, right? Get the hell outta here!” Deacon picked up the pillow and threw it directly at her face.

Oriana stood still, and didn’t try to dodge. The pillow smashed into her face. Although the pillow was light and didn’t hurt her face, Oriana felt an unexplainable hurt in her heart. And her heart was shattered.

Her eyes clouded with tears, and she turned around and hurried out of the study room.

Deacon clenched his fist and let out a painful sigh. Suddenly, Phoebe began crying. Deacon lowered his eyes and looked at her.

It was who bought Phoebe, but Phoebe’s love was all for Oriana.

Oriana had suppressed her emotions and went to the hospital to visit the old Mr. Hendrix.

Mr. Hendrix laid on the hospital’s bed and was still not awake. Oriana brought a bucket of warm water and towel, and cleaned the old man’s body.

“Grandpa, please wake up soon, you’re the only relative i have left in Los Angeles. Please, grandpa.” Oriana muttered sadly, as she continued wiping his body.

The old man had loved Oriana very much. When Oriana was a child, he would carry Oriana on his shoulders and play around with her.

North walked in and consoled,

“Oriana, it’s okay, okay? Don’t worry too much. I believe that he’ll wake up soon.”

Oriana nodded and held onto North’s hand.

“Oriana, look!” North exclaimed in shock.

Oriana turned her head and saw old Mr. Hendrix’s fingers moving. Slowly, the old man’s eyes were opened as well.

Mr. Hendrix was awake!

Oriana had dreamt about the day that her grandfather would wake. But now that the old man was awake and before her, Oriana was shocked and dumfounded.

“Grandpa, you’re finally awake!” Oriana screamed happily.

Old Mr. Hendrix had been in a vegetative state for more than ten years. His cloudy and dull. confusingly.

“Little Miss.” He muttered weakly.

Oriana’s eyes radiated with happiness. She held tighter to his hands and corrected,

“Grandpa, I’m not little miss. I’m your granddaughter, Oriana. It’s me Olly.”

Old Mr. Hendrix shook his head and insisted,

“Oriana is my little miss. She’s my young mistress.”
