Chapter 280 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Posted on March 1, 2024March 1, 2024 by admin

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Deacon went upstairs. Instead of entering Crystal’s room, he went into the guest room to take a hot shower under Mrs. Robert’s arrangement.

In the bathroom, the hot water was steamed with mist. Deacon stood under the shawer and allowed the warm water wash down from the top of his head. The water droplets splashed on his strong muscles.

Deacon covered his handsome eyelids with his hands. His mind was filled with the image of Marvin leaving with Oriana in his arms.

After turning off the shower, he grabbed a bath towel and tied it to his waist, and then he walked out of the bathroom.

The maid had already placed a brand new shirt and trousers on the bed. Deacon walked over and picked up the clothes.

The door was pushed open and Crystal walked in.

“Deacon!” She called out.

Crystal didn’t expect to see Deacon that way. Deacon was only wearing a bath towel. She had never seen Deacon undress. Deacon’s chest was hare, and his six packs abs were revealed.

Deacon’s body was not that of an exaggerated gym rat. On the contrary, his muscles were defined just like that of commercial models. He was extremely se xy and hot.

Crystal’s heart was pounding extremely fast,

“Deacon, why are you not wearing any clothes?” Crystal asked foolishly.

Deacon was too lazy to pay her any attention. And he didn’t understand why she entered his room without knocking. Where was her manners?

“Get out!” Deacon ordered impatiently.

Crystal could hear the impatience in his tone. That was definitely not the way he treated Oriana. If it was Oriana, he would pester her shamelessly. Oriana even said that he was sexually harassing her.

But to her, he treated her with extreme indifference.

“Deacon, what’s your relationship with Oriana? I’m your fiancee for screaming out loud!” Crystal complained unhappily.

Deacon’s face was expressionless. He turned around and didn’t even look at Crystal.

“Let’s break off the engagement.” He uttered.

Crystal was so angry, that she didn’t know what else to say to him.

“I’ve tried, but it’s not working. I don’t want anyone else than her.” Deacon’s deep voice sounded from the room.

Crystal didn’t even have to think about who it was, she knew right away that it was Oriana.

It was obvious that Deacon was so obsessed with Oriana!

Crystal didn’t want to give up on Deacon. She really liked Deacon very much. There were not many men like him in the world. He was handsome, rich and powerful. He was the only one that was her type.

For so many years, her biggest dream was to marry him, and become his wife.

Now that her dream was only one step away from actualizing, how could she give up?

Crystal remembered what Nora had told her. Nora had informed her that men loved women who looked pure but good in bed.

Crystal had always wanted to find out if there was something wrong with Deacon’s body and whether he was really impotent.

“Deacon, I won’t call off the engagement with you. I love you.” Crystal declared. With that, Crystal boldly raised her hand and took off her dress, revealing her snow white shoulder.

Crystal stepped forward and hugged Deacon’s waist from behind.

“Deacon, you want me, right?”

Deacon turned around and stared at Crystal’s face.

Although Crystal wasn’t as beautiful as Oriana, she was still the best amongst other girls.

“Deacon, I know you want me. Anyway, I’m your fiancee, so you can have me.”

Regarding Crystal’s initiative, Deacon’s mind quickly recalled the spring dream he had. In that dream. Oriana sat on his waist. He. Deacon Armstead, a business tycoon was dressed like a middle-class male. He found the dream really bizarre.

Deacon swallowed hard and his Adams apple rolled up and down. He raised his hand and used his fingers to lift Crystal’s small chin.

Crystal stared at Deacon nervously and expectantly. “Deacon.” She called out tenderly.

Deacon reached out and pushed her, causing Crystal to fall directly into the big soft bed.

Crystal felt as if the world was spinning. Deacon knelt on one knee on the bed, his hands were on the each side of her face, and he was gazing down at her.

Crystal had completely surrendered to his manly charm. She could perceive the clean and refreshing scent that lingered on him.

Deacon slowly lowered his body and approached her red lips.

Was he about to kiss her?

Crystal was very excited, and her heart pounded fast. She closed her eyes and waited for Deacon’s lips to touch hers.

However, Deacon didn’t kiss her.

Crystal opened her eyes and saw Deacon picking up the shirt that was close to her body.

The realization struck Crystal hard, and it was as if a bucket of cold water was poured on her body, extinguishing all her enthusiasm and expectations.

Deacon took his shirt, stood up from the bed, and left the room.

He actually left just like that.

Crystal bit her red lips and tears welled up in her eyes. She had felt humiliated and embarrassed multiple times, but the mortification that she felt today had surpassed the previous ones.

Crystal found Nora and hurried into her arms with tears in her eyes.

Nora had never seen Crystal cry like this before.

“Mum, Deacon is breaking off the engagement. He doesn’t want me anymore!” She cried sadly.

Nora’s facial expression changed abruptly. It was just a while ago that Deacon and Crystal got engaged.

At that time. Crystal’s engagement to Deacon had caused a huge sensation in the entire city. If the engagement was to be called off, then Crystal would become a laughing stock in the city, and would be criticized by others throughout her lifetime.

“Mum, it’s all because of Oriana. Deacon is fascinated by Oriana. I hate Oriana so much. I want her to disappear from this world.” Crystal muttered resentfully.

Nora pondered for a moment. Tonight, she made a mistake and Oriana had escaped from her grip.

However, she really wanted Oriana to disappear from this world!

A thought crossed Nora’s mind. She raised her hand and wiped Crystal’s tears.

“Crystal. I forgot to tell you a good news. Your brother, Houston, is back!”

Houston Paulo was back?

Crystal’s eyes instantly dried, and her lips went apart in surprise.

In the Paulo’s family, Mr. Paulo was very talented in medicine, but Houston Paulo was even more talented. And Houston was a type of individual who was ready to deal with anyone who offended him.

Mr. Paulo had dedicated his entire time to grooming and raising this grandson of his.

“Mum, is Houston really back? That’s really nice. Let’s have Houston deal with Oriana. Oriana is definitely not Houston’s opponent!” Crystal said happily.

Nora also nodded.

“Crystal, don’t worry, okay? I’ll call your grandfather now. Your grandpa will definitely allow Houston deal with Oriana!”

“But mum, grandpa doesn’t really like Houston to get involved with women issue. The last time he got involved, grandpa was really mad. I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult to get grandpa to agree.”

“You don’t need to worry about that I’ll find a way to convince your grandpa. Crystal, just wait. Deacon will marry you soon. He’ll marry you and make you his wife!”

While staring at Nora’s determined face. Crystal suddenly felt at ease.

After Crystal left the room. Nora hastily took out her phone and placed a call to her father, Mr. Paulo.

The phone on the other end rang twice, and was connected. Mr. Paulo’s voice came over, “Hello, Nora.”
