Chapter 216 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Posted on February 4, 2024February 4, 2024 by admin

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Deacon was in the driver’s seat, big hands pressed to the wheel. He looked at Marvin and Oriana embracing each other in front of him through the shiny windshield, which had been pulled to the point of whiteness.

He didn’t know how these two were related!

His younger brother is arrogant, completely different from his mother Lily Midas. He never despised the trickery of infighting in the house, let alone fighting over the property of the Armstead family. Marvin is very clean, the favorite man of the famous women in Imperial.

If he remembers correctly, Marvin has very high standards. He has never had a crush on a girl, nor has he ever been in love.

But now, on the bustling streets of Imperial, he held Oriana tightly in his arms.

Deacon’s gaze fell on Oriana’s slender figure again, and she reached out and patted Marvin’s back, as gently as a child’s comfort.

What is their relationship?

Deacon slowly curled his thin lips in a mocking arc. It seems that he came at the wrong time, she already has someone to pick her up.

She really showed him a good performance, no, it must be impressive!

How many men are by her side? Not only Noah and Jimmy, but now even Marvin is pursuing her, or are there more men…

So what is he?

The corners of Deacon’ long, narrow eyes were covered with a fierce scarlet color, and his whole body

was filled with terrible hostility. He didn’t understand why she came to provoke him.

He was living a good life, a peaceful life like a stagnant pool of water, without waves, but her appearance stirred his heart and turned all his life upside down.

Deacon felt himself showered with cold water, fully awake. It’s ridiculous indeed.

It was a joke he drove here tonight.

From now on, he will never bring himself to the door for her to tram ple at will.

Deacon pressed the accelerator, the Rolls-Royce Phantom sped away.

After Deacon left, Marvin slowly let go of Oriana, looking her up and down with concern, “Oriana, is the poison on your body gone?”

For the past three months, Marvin had focused all of his attention on Los Angeles and neglected Imperial. He didn’t expect her to quietly come to Imperial until he heard that the Hendrix family had found the youngest daughter. This is the youngest daughter who has become the beauty queen of Watson School, famous in the basketball arena. Now, after listening to the crowd talking, he has found her.

At that time, the poison of the Datura flower was extremely strong. Marvin felt it was unbelievable that she could now stand in front of him unscathed.

“The poison on my body has been completely cured. It’s a long story. I thought I was going to die at the time, thanks to my mom leaving a medicinal pill.”

“Your mom?” Marvin asked. This was the first time he heard about her mother. “Oriana, is your mom also a doctor?”

“Yes, my mom is very skilled in medicine, but my mom left when I was nine years old. There are many things about her and this medicinal pill that I still don’t know.”

Marvin is a doctor, and his attention is immediately drawn to Oriana’s mother, who can bring people back to life with a single pill, such a feat of medicine.

“Oriana, I know a lot of famous doctors. I have friends who are at the top of the medical field in the world right now. What’s your mother’s name? I can find her.”

This sentence is very true, Marvin is the son of heaven, the youngest scholar in Imperial. He started. traveling and giving presentations very early. Living up to his reputation, he naturally made many friends. His experience and vision were both much better than Oriana’s.

Oriana’s eyes light up, ever since she learned from Mr. Hendrix that Mom may not have died but disappeared, she has been trying to find her whereabouts, maybe Marvin can help her.

“My mom’s name is Joyce Brown,” Oriana said.

Her mother’s name was Joyce Brown….

This sentence reached Marvin’s cars. What did she say? Her mother was… Joyce Brown? Joyce Brown was her mother?

Marvin was very familiar with the name Joyce Brown because he had heard it so many times from his mother, Lily Midas.

His mother said that the daughter-in-law she wanted the most was the daughter of Joyce Brown. Twenty years ago, Joyce Brown left an engagement and married her daughter to the Armstead family!

Turns out she was his fiancee!

Marvin suddenly understood everything. That engagement gift was later taken away by Grandma, who then used this engagement item to marry Oriana to Deacon!

It turns out that for this reason, the grandmother secretly took away the betrothal. Oriana was his fiancee, but his grandmother stole his fiancee and married her to her beloved grandson Deacon.

Everything was wrong.

It was wrong from the start.

Marvin felt heartache. From a young age, he knew his grandma adored Deacon, it didn’t matter. But she took her away and gave her to Deacon?

He had never been involved in the affairs of the previous generation, and Deacon was always favored.

Marvin’s face changed unpredictably, and Oriana quickly asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

“Oriana, I’ve heard of your mom’s name,” Marvin told the truth.

“What? Really?” exclaimed Oriana, overjoyed..

“That’s true, but I’ve just heard of it too. Give me time, I need to find out some things, and then I’ll tell you.”

Marvin has no way of telling her now, fearing that she won’t be able to accept it. He didn’t want to scare her, and he needed to investigate this. Joyce Brown and the Armstead family had a relationship, so it wasn’t difficult to know where Joyce Brown was in Imperial.

Oriana believed in Marvin, and she nodded vigorously, saying, “Okay, it’s fine.”

“Oriana, it’s too late. Let me take you home. Where do you live now?”

“I live in… The Red Villa…”

Hearing the name “The Red Villa”, Marvin quickly froze. Of course, he knew The Red Villa was property in Deacon’s name. After returning from Los Angeles, he lived in The Red Villa.

“Oriana, are you and Deacon back together?” Marvin asked.

Oriana shook her head, and said, “No, I met him not long ago, and we didn’t get along very well. I only lived at The Red Villa for two days. Grandma was very sick at first, but I am still helping her recover. Now I’m the youngest daughter of the Hendrix family. I’ve always lived with the Hendrix family.”

“Got it, get in the car, I’ll take you back to The Red Villa,” Marvin offered, politely opening the co-drivers door for her.

Oriana looked at his handsome face, hesitated for a moment, then said, “Marvin, I know how much you care about me, and I’m also touched. Although what happened between Deacon and I is the past, because I don’t want to talk about love now, I can’t give you hope, and can’t accept your feelings for me, either. That’s not fair to you, so…”

Her mind is always so pure, not wanting to give others a chance. Marvin thought he was late anyway, and he never found her earlier than Deacon.

“Oriana, I know, but you can’t turn down the chance to be my friend. Being nice to you is my business, having feelings for you is my business, too. Don’t be so cruel to me. Don’t always push me away from you like that.”

Oriana’s heart slowly softened, then she lowered her head and sat in the passenger seat of Maybach, letting him take her home.

Oriana returned to The Red Villa. Because it was already dark, after ten o’clock, the old lady and Betty had gone to bed.
