Chapter 169 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Deacon stood not too far away and watched the duo, Marvin had touched Oriana’s face emotionally.

Oriana seemed to be startled, and she jerked back and made to close the door.

Deacon remembered the little maid who looked a little like Oriana.

Marvin’s hand held the door domineeringly, not letting it close.

Oriana was a little confused by Marvin’s actions, she raised her eyes and looked at Marvin who had entered the room and closed the door.

Deacon watched as the door slammed. Before the door slammed, he saw Oriana moving back slowly. Deacon concluded the scene to be reverie.

“CEO, this is your room card.” Andrew walked over and handed the room card to Deacon.

Deacon didn’t reach out to take the card. He just raised his thin lips and said in a low, h oar se voice,

“What are they doing in the room?”

Andrew was stunned because he had just arrived and didn’t see when Marvin entered Oriana’s room.

Andrew looked at Deacon and saw that Deacon’s handsome face exuded a gloomy and cold aura, which was capable of making one afraid.

“CEO, are you okay? Why don’t I keep you company?” Andrew tried his best to coax Deacon. He didn’t want him losing him temper.

Deacon reached out and collected the room card from Andrew’s hands.

“No need for that. Andrew, you can return back.” With that, Deacon turned around and swiped his card, and once the door of the room opened, Deacon walked in.

In the presidential suite, Deacon didn’t go into the bathroom to take a shower. The room was dark and the lights were not on. The atmosphere could be described as cold and depressing.

Deacon sat on the sofa, pulled out a cigarette and placed it between his lips.

Soon, the ashtray on the coffee table was filled with cigarette butts. Deacon was consuming the cigarette at a fast pace. The pack was empty in no time.

Deacon stretched out his hands to his pocket to grab another cigarette pack, but he realized that he had only bought one pack.

The bloodthirsty anger in his chest was numbed by the smell of nicotine. Now that Deacon was completely wasted, he leaned his head into the sofa. Deacon closed and opened his eyes. His mind kept replaying the scene of Marvin entering Oriana’s room.

“What were they doing now?” He questioned inwardly.

Deacon had already prepared himself m entally. In the future, she was bound to meet a better man and fall in love with him. But now that Marvin was in the room with Oriana, Deacon actually found it very unbearable.

Deacon suddenly stood up. He walked briskly to the door of his room, and opened it. He got out of hist room and then went over to Oriana’s door.

The door was still tightly closed, and Marvin hadn’t still stepped out.

Deacon raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, but his finger suddenly halted in the air.

His handsome eyelids drooped down. Deacon turned around and left, returning to his room.

He took out the bottle of sleeping pills from his bag, then opened the cap and poured a handful into his palm, and he went on to swallow all of it.

Deacon knew that he had to take the sleeping pills right away. Else, he was bound to fall sick, and might rush in and do something to hurt her.

He really couldn’t do without the sleeping pills.

In the next room, Oriana looked at Marvin who stood by the door.

“What are you doing?” She questioned impatiently.

Marvin looked at her and h ooked his lips. He went to the table and placed the bag in his hands on it. He opened the bag and took out the mandala flower.

“How can you keep me outside? The mandala flower has always heen with me. All you needed to do was to give me call, and then I could have brought it to you.”

Oriana’s tense nerves loosened. Although she had always believed in Marvin’s medical skills, he had still startled her by his presence.

Oriana moved over to the table and looked at the flower. The mandala flower was red and delicate.

“What do you want this for?” Marvin suddenly asked.

“Oh, I want this for a research.” Oriana took the flower and made to move it to the balcony.

“Oriana, you haven’t given up on Deacon, have you?”

Oriana’s footsteps halted, and her eyelashes blinked severally. She muttered calmly.

“we’re already divorced.”

“Oh, I see you didn’t get my question. You haven’t given up on Deacon’s condition. You still want to cure him. That’s why you want the mandala flower, right?”

Oriana turned around and looked at Marvin.

“This is my personal issue, okay? It’s already late. I want to get some rest. “Oriana offered Marvin a notice of evacuation.

Marvin focused his gaze on her face. He nodded and said,

“I’ll wait for you at the airport. Get some rest, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Marvin opened the door and left.

Oriana let out a frown. She didn’t understand what he meant. For all she knew, she wasn’t going with him to Imperial.

Oriana took out the medical book from her handbag and flipped to the last page.

The next morning.

By the time Oriana was done showering and preparing it was already past nine o’clock.

She hastily exited the room and awaited the elevator.

At this moment, she heard the sound of steady footsteps approaching. She looked sideways and sighted a tall figure walking towards her. It was Deacon.

It happened that he was actually here too.

Oriana didn’t expect to meet him here. She was caught off guard and was totally unprepared.

Oriana quickly looked away and looked at the number keys of the elevator.

Deacon walked over and stood beside her. His h oa rse voice inquired,

“How have you been recently?”

Oriana didn’t turn to look at him. She nodded lightly and responded,

“I’ve been good. Didn’t expect to see you here.”

“I came here to do some job.” Deacon simply replied.

“Oh, okay.” Oriana didn’t utter another word, and tried her best to relax and act natural.

“Last night, I saw Marvin entering your room. It seems like the relationship between you two is developing quite fast.” Deacon deep and domineering voice sounded into Oriana’s cars.

Oriana froze for some seconds, then she quickly turned to look at him. Deacon was also looking at her. His eyes were gloomy and hostile.

“I’m trying to understand what you’re saying…” Oriana muttered and made to enter the elevator which had arrived.

Oriana’s wrist was suddenly grabbed, and Deacon’s sharp-b oned fingers reach over and pulled her hard.

Oriana let out a frown.

“Mr. Armstead, if you have something to say, why don’t you just say it?”

The distance between them was enough for Deacon to perceive the sweet fragrance on Oriana’s body. He was infatuated by her fragrance and loved it very much.

“I’m afraid that you didn’t understand what I had just asked. Please answer me correctly. What did you and Marvin do in the room last night?”

Oriana stared at Deacon’s eyes and pressed her two hands hard against his chest, in a bid to push him away.

“This is my personal issue. Don’t worry about it, okay? Oh, just so you know, you’re being extremely annoying!”
