Posted on May 16, 2024May 16, 2024 by admin

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

A smug, condescending look. Oriana somehow felt shaky. There’s only one person who can give her this feeling, and that’s Deacon! The second generation rich man couldn’t take it anymore, his mind was about to collapse. He asked,

“Who… Who are you…7 At this moment, a

“click”

sound, the driver’s door slowly opened, and Deacon’ tall and handsome figure came into view. Tonight, Deacon wears a thin black wool coat, a white shirt with no wrinkles, a tie on the collar, and a black business vest with a shiny brooch. He has the temperament of an elite businessman and the calm demeanor of a high class.

“Wow!”

As soon as Deacon appeared, those passersby were dumbfounded by this handsomeness. He is a combination of the image of a long-legged superstar in an idol drama and a domineering president. The second-generation rich man quickly recognized Deacon. He was still a child then, brought by his father to the Armstead family party, and he met Deacon, the eldest son of the Armstead family, at the party. Over the years, Deacon had become so powerful and famous everywhere, and this second-generation rich had a deep impression about Deacon. Gosh, there was an aura in Deacon body that he had never seen before and was completely unbearable, so he was in shock. The second-generation rich man’s eyes looked at the silver button on Deacon’ sleeve, and the word Armstead inlaid on the silver button. The second-generation rich man’s head exploded. It’s really him….! He’s Deacon!

Number one tycoon today, Deacon Armstead! Deacon wasn’t looking at the second-generation rich guy at all. He strode on long legs, walking in front of Oriana and Nathan. Lowering his eyelids, he reached out and touched Nathan’s head. Nathan raised his pearly pink face, calling silently,

“Dad.”

Deacon bent down, picked up Nathan, and held him in his arms:

“Let’s go home.”

Nathan quickly looked at Oriana. Oriana stood still. She approached Nathan and didn’t want Deacon to know, but she felt that Deacon might already know. Now that Deacon suddenly appeared, the two met face to face, Oriana was caught off guard. At this moment, Deacon’ deep narrow eyes looked at her hand-sized beautiful face. He frowned deeply and said:

“Oriana, aren’t you very good at eloquence? Why are you dumb in front of others?”

“What?”

Oriana exclaimed. Her bright eyes stared at him bewilderedly, not understanding what he meant by suddenly blaming her. The next second, Deacon suddenly reached out his big hand, grabbed her small hand, held her small soft boneless hand in the palm, coldly looked at the second-generation rich man, saying,

“Tell him who your man, Nathan’s father, is!”

Oriana shivered. What does he mean? Her man…? Seeing her hesitate, Deacon curved his long fingers, squeezing her small hand. Oriana could only cooperatively look up at the second-generation rich man, and she cursed in a clear voice,

“You blind. Open your eyes wide. This is the little prince of the Armstead family, Nathan. His dad is in front of you right now, Deacon!”

Oriana solemnly introduced Deacon. Whispers sounded. All the onlookers were stunned. Is this the number one tycoon In the legend… Deacon? The second generation rich guy was crumbling. He was thinking about what he did just now. He really wanted to steal Deacon’ woman, berate his son, and said that he would kneel when he saw him!

No, this is absolutely not something he can do! The second-generation rich guy felt like he was about to kneel before Deacon.

At this time, the melodious ringtone sounded, it was the phone of the second-generation rich man. He quickly took out his cell phone, pressed the connect button, and soon after his father’s curses and howls came,

“You bast ard! You offended the big shot! Just now, Armstead Corporation’s secretary Andrew called and said that they have officially acquired our company, and Deacon has fired me as its director and told me to pack up and leave immediately.”

“Moreover, someone checked our account just now. There was a problem with our account, ant investigation team came down from above, and they wanted to take me away.”

“You idiot! Do you dare offend Deacon? He’s the king, who dares offend him? He only needs to stamp his foot and the sky will move. Now everything is over. Our company is gone, our family is broken, and we’re done!”

With a

“c rack”

sound, the mobile phone in the second generation rich guy’s hand fell directly to the ground, his father’s words:

“Our company is gone, our family is broken, and we’re done”

echoed in his ears. Like the curse, it terrified him, and now he’s scared like crazy. How could he think…. that one day he would die at the hands of this man, Deacon?

“Mr… Mr. Armstead, it’s all my fault. Please forgive me, the lowly person. I’m really sorry… The second generation rich guy’s legs softened, kneeling in front of Deacon, tears running down his face and begging for mercy. Deacon didn’t even look at him. His narrow, deep eyes looked at Oriana’s beautiful face. Just now she talked a lot, but she didn’t say who her man was! Deacon beautiful eyes darkened, and he pulled Oriana to the side of the car. He took a big step. Oriana stumbled behind him and looked up at his thick, straight shoulders. He easily hugged Nathan with one hand, and her with the other. They looked like a close family. But only Oriana sensed his smoldering anger. He was so rude that her little hand turned red. After opening the back door of the luxury Rolls-Royce Phantom, Deacon stuffed the boy and Oriana in, then returned to the driver’s seat himself and drove away.

Inside the Rolls Royce Phantom. In the luxurious and quiet space, there was a bit of strangeness and silence, no one spoke.

Oriana was the first to break the silence,

“Mr. Armstead, please let me down. We’ll take two different paths. I’ll take a taxi home myself, and you’ll take Nathan home.”

Nathan quickly grabbed Oriana’s shirt corner, and silently whispered:

“Teacher, we agreed in advance. I will come to your house to have dinner tonight.”

As he spoke, he looked at his father, Dad, you can take me and the fairy home, and then you can go back alone.”

Deacon glanced in the rearview mirror. He frowned at Nathan’s stall mouth, then his deep and displeased gaze fell on Oriana’s face. Oriana didn’t actually know that Deacon was coming back today, so she agreed to Nathan’s request to visit her house as a guest, and she also said that she would cook for him. Now… Oriana looked at Nathan beside her, little hands clutching the corner of her shirt, looking at her hopefully, afraid she’d leave him. Oriana straightened her slender hack, saying.

“President Armstead, Nathan and I have a pre-arranged deal. How about this? I’ll take Nathan to my place for dinner, and after dinner, I’ll bring Nathan to your house. What do you think?”

For Nathan’s sake, Oriana lowered her voice softly and discussed with him humbly. Deacon pursed his thin lips, and a few seconds later said,

“Your address.”

Oriana and Nathan’s eyes both lit up. He agreed! Soon, the luxury Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked downstairs, Oriana not living with North but returning to the apartment she lived in three years ago.

The luxury car stopped, and Oriana opened the back door and picked up Nathan. Out of courtesy, she waved to Deacon,

“President Armstead, goodbye.”

After saying that, Oriana turned and entered the apartment with Nathan. In the elevator, Nathan looked up at Oriana with big black eyes like grapes,

“Fairy, are you afraid of my dad?”

Oriana’s heart missed a beat. Did she act so obviously? She and Deacon were in the past, and there are many women around Deacon in the present. Oriana doesn’t want Nathan to know about her and Deacon’ past for the time being. Nathan is still young and can’t understand the adult world, and the most important thing now is to make Nathan talk first.

“Nathan, your dad seems to be a very noble and distinguished man, so I… respect him.”

Oriana rearranged her words. It turned out to be so. Nathan was afraid that his teacher didn’t like his father, so now he feels okay. After consoling Nathan, the two headed to the apartment door.

Oriana took the key to open the door, and Nathan entered.

She was just about to close the door. But at this moment, a large hand suddenly touched the door panel. Who? Oriana’s clear eyes quickly flashed wariness, she turned her head to look and saw Deacon’ tall and handsome body entering her view. Deacon is here! Oriana’s tense nerves quickly relaxed, but she looked at the man at the door in confusion. Wh… What did he come here for? Deacon stood outside the door, used his big hands to push the door open, then he strode forward, his tall and straight body entered.

“President Armstead, why… are you here?”

Oriana asked, looking at him. Deacon put one hand in his pocket, and looked at Oriana condescendingly,

“My son is here, of course I’ll come, otherwise I’ll be worried.”
