Chapter 75 – A Sacrificial Lamb’s Unexpected Marriage

Posted on December 4, 2023 by admin

Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Oriana scoffed lightly.

“Director Hudson, yesterday Greg stole Divine’s phone and threw it on the highway.

Hasn’t he violated her right to privacy and threatened her personal safety? I’m going to call the cops!

“What?” Director Hudson glared angrily at Greg-

“Team leader. Greg, are Oriana’s words true?” He queried.

Certainly, Greg was bound to refute.

“That’s not true, director Hudson. Pay zero attention to the rubbish which Oriana sprew.

Oriana, if you want to call the cops, do you have any evidence?”

Oriana let out a scoff and said.

“Of course, there are evidence. Divine got into your car outside the gate of the

Armstead’s corporation. You grabbed Divine’s phone on the highway and left her behind.” Oriana took in a deep breathe and continued,

“Team leader, Greg, do you really think that there are no surveillance cameras outside the Armstead’s corporation? Or do you think that the highway are devoid of surveillance as well? I just need to request for the CCTV footage and your ugly hypocritical face will be out to the public.”

Greg’s face suddenly turned pale.

“Oriana, who do you think you are? How will you be able to request for the footage?”

“Then why don’t you try to see if I can request for those monitors.”

Greg focused his attention on Oriana who was standing before him. Oriana was only nineteen years old, but her black eyes were sharp and cold, as though she could spot all the hypocrisy and filth in the world. She carried a powerful aura that made people want to worship her.

Greg had always looked down on Oriana, thinking that Oriana was just an orphan from the countryside who had only graduated from high school. But now he knew that he couldn’t underestimate her because she had Deacon behind her!

Oriana had noticed the change in Greg’s expression.

“What are you afraid of? Why didn’t you think twice before provoking me?”

Greg clenched his fists. He never thought that the scenario would escalate so fast.

“Oriana, what really do you want?” Greg questioned in fright.

“I’ve got no issue with you. I just need you to apologize to Divine! If you don’t want to apologize here, then you’ll have to go the police station and apologize!” Oriana threatened furiously.

Greg’s body trembled. He didn’t want to go to the police station. He knew that his excellent record would be tampered with if a case is filed against him. This was bound to ruin him.

Greg turned slowly to look at Divine, his tightly clenched fist slowly loosened. With a trembling voice he said.

“Divine, I’m sorry, I… I admit that I did everything. I did stole your phone and used it to post those pictures at the group with your account. I admit that I also left you at the highway. I’m sorry.”

What!

The entire students were dumbfounded. The sudden reversal was way too sudden.

How could team leader, Greg, be such a person?

Pamela felt her body go numb. She didn’t expect that Greg would be placed in such a vulnerable position.

Divine snorted coldly.

“Greg, it’s your duty to apologize, and it’s my duty to forgive you. I’ll never forgive you!”

Oriana added calmly,

“Greg, let me ask you, were you following anyone’s orders?”

Pamela’s heart suddenly pounded heavily. Greg looked up at her.

Pamela quickly avoided his gaze. Her fingers curled up unconsciously, revealing the panic and uneasiness in her heart.

Greg diverted his gaze back to Oriana. He shook his head,

“No, I just did look down on you. I did everything my self. And no matter what, Oriana, it won’t change the fact that you cheated in your marriage!”

Oriana didn’t expect that Greg would be so infatuated with Pamela that he chose to hear the consequences alone.

Oriana turned to director Hudson and said,

“Director Hudson, Greg framed his colleague this way. His behavior was vile. I believe you will enforce the law fairly and severely punish him, right?”

Director Hudson stared at Greg in disappointment.

“Greg, you did so well as a student here. You were promoted to the team leader after only two years of entering this institute. But this time, you made a huge mistake. I can’t tolerate you. You’ll be informed of your punishment, as for now, you seize to be the team leader. Remain in the institute for observations!“.

Greg’s body instantly paralyzed and his face ashen in shame. He was no longer the team leader, and his efforts and pride were gone.

He couldn’t figure out how he was planning to get rid of Oriana. He was so miserable!

“Oriana. Greg’s issue has been resolved. Now let’s deal with your matter. Come to the office with me!” Director Hudson turned around and left.

Oriana and Director Hudson passed beside Pamela, and Oriana quickly stepped on her right foot.

“Oriana!” Pamela gasped.

Although Greg’s defeat made her very annoyed, her real purpose was to expel Oriana from the academy.

“You must confess to Director Hudson, after all you’ve cheated in your marriage, so don’t make it worse. You can leave the academy on your own initiative.”

Oriana licked her lower lips with her tongue. She laughed in a low voice and said,

“Let’s make a bet, I’ll definitely not leave this institute, do you believe it?”

Pamela’s eyes turned cold. Of course she didn’t believe it! It was an indisputable fact that Oriana had cheated in her marriage. She didn’t believe that the Ivory Council would retain her against the opinion of the public.

Oriana continued walking behind director Hudson, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and declared audibly,

“Director Hudson, I want to have a few words with Divine.”

Hudson’s expression was cold, but he nodded,

“Go.”

Director Hudson didn’t leave. He stood to hear what Oriana wanted saying to Divine.

Divine swiftly ran over to her and apologized.

“Oriana, this matter started because of me. It’s all my fault for getting into Greg’s car. I…”

“Divine, Deacon and I are really together.” Oriana interrupted her. Divine’s eyes widened instantly.

Oriana smiled and pulled Divine’s hands.

“So, Divine, it’s not your fault. This issue is directed at me. Sooner or later, the relationship between Deacon and I will break out.”

Oriana shoved something into Divine’s hands,

“Divine, this is for you.”

Divine opened it slowly with her eyes glued to Oriana’s face.

“Olly, what’s this?” Divine questioned as she stared at the medicinal recipe.

“This is a healthy food diet. It will help you tame down your calorie intake and increase your protein intake.”

“Oriana…” Divine called as she was out of words.

“The reason I give this to you is so that you can eat healthy and also stay healthy

Due to her obesity, Divine had very few true friends. She knew that everyone was gossiping about her behind her back.

Hearing Oriana’s words, her eyes were reddened with hot tears. Her lips trembled and she didn’t know what to say.

Oriana understood perfectly, she caressed her hands and added,

“Divine, I always felt that Greg was not suitable for you. But it’s okay, it’s normal for teenagers and young adults to fall in love with scumbag during their youthful age. If you feel hurt about it, just count it as though it’s growth.”

“Use the humiliations and discriminations that Greg had meted upon you as a driving force to begin to take care of your body. Just go home home now, Divine, and take good care of yourself. I’m looking forward to seeing you look. better and happier. I love you.“Oriana added with a pleasant smile on her face.

“I love you too, Oriana.“Divine muttered with teary eyes as she hugged Oriana.

“Thank you so very much Olly, I definitely will.”

Oriana gently patted Divine’s back as she cried away all the low self–esteem and inferiority complex that she had ever felt.

On the second floor, Marvin, the guy who often liked to sleep, had tucked his hands into his trousers pocket and quietly stared at the two girls hugging each other downstairs.

The cool breeze was blowing the fine curly hair on his forehead. The man was undeniably cold and arrogant.
