Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage
“I was married to Landon, so no one knows you better than me. You’re not human at all. You’re always changing countless identities. You no longer belong to yourself.”
“Axel, let me ask you, what qualifications do you have to marry Josie? She is only 19 years old, her beautiful life has just begun. Do you want to destroy her?”
“I am her mother. I will never watch her become the second me. I will never let her make the same mistake as me!”
Having finished speaking, Sarah walked away.
Sarah’s mood is completely understandable. It took her half her life to escape her marriage with Landon. Now that her daughter meets Axel, she is both shocked and disgusted.
As long as she is alive, she won’t let her daughter he with Axel.
Axel looked at Sarah, the strong woman in the shopping mall walking away. He read her information. Sarah at 20 years old was beautiful and sweet, looking like a sweet little wife while cuddling next to Landon. But now Sarah is strong, fierce and indifferent, with absolutely no trace of her former softness left.
That’s what that marriage did for her.
Axel’s fingers at his side curled up, his whole body hidden in darkness.
“Sir, Miss Martinez is still in the room, do you want to come in?”
At this time, the subordinate asked in a low voice.
Axel looked at the closed door in front of him, reached out to turn the doorknob, intending to open the door.
But the next second, his movement to open the door stiffened.
He slowly withdrew his hand, turned and left.
Axel walked into the dark hallway and lit a cigarette. Blue smoke filled the air, blurring his handsome face.
Soon, a melodious cell phone ringtone rang out, signaling a call.
It’s Mr. Lewis called.
Axel pressed the button to answer the call, Mr. Lewis quickly came: “Axel, where are you now? Skylar is not feeling well and has been hospitalized. Can you come see her?”
Axel put half a cigarette to his lips, took a deep breath, and nodded amid the red flames: “Okay, I’ll be there soon.”
Sarah and Mallory sat together having dinner. Sarah looked at her daughter and said, “Josie, I think you’re almost rested. Get ready to leave here and go home to me. We’ll forget everything in the past and the name Mallory. From now on, you will be the daughter of the Garcia family, belonging to the upper class. Mom will arrange your education, let you study abroad. Your youth and life have just begun.”
Mallory bowed her head to eat, remaining silent without answering.
She has been silent for the past two days and said nothing.
At this moment, there was a “click”
sound, and the villa door suddenly opened.
Mallory stopped and quickly raised her head.
The person who entered was Sarah’s personal secretary.
At this moment, the light in Mallory’s eyes quickly disappeared. She put down the bowl and chopsticks: “I’m done eating. I’ll go back to my room first.”
She went upstairs.
The private secretary came over and said: “Madam, why does the young lady seem so depressed?”
Sarah knew what the private secretary wanted to say. Axel hadn’t appeared in two days and her daughter was so haunted that she was obviously waiting for him to come.
“We just reunited, Josie might be a little uncomfortable.”
Sarah gracefully cut a piece of steak, “What happened to Axel in the past two days?”
“He’s back with his boss. He’s been with Skylar for the past two days. I heard… he has agreed to get married, and the Lewis family has also prepared the wedding.”
Sarah didn’t say much. She knew that Axel heard what she said that day.
“Boss, this is what Axel gave to the young lady.”
The personal secretary gave her something.
In the room.
Mallory was sitting on the side of the bed, holding something in her hand, the gun Axel had given her that day.
Her soft white fingertips touched it. The cold gun seemed to still have warm masculine body. temperature and a rough rubbing feeling like sand and gravel.
He said from now on his life will be hers!
At this time, there was a knock at the door and Sarah’s voice came: “Josie, ha yet?”
Mallory quickly stuffed the gun under her pillow: “No.”
you gone to bed
Sarah pushed the door open and walked in, holding a glass of hot milk in her hand, “Josie, drink milk before going to bed. Your appetite hasn’t been very good these past two days and you don’t look good either. You’ve lost weight.”
Mallory reached out to receive the milk: “Thank you.”
“Josie,”
Sarah sat next to Mallory, saying, “Is it because of Axel that you don’t want to go home. with me?”
Mallory’s eyelashes trembled.
“Josie, this is what Axel sent someone to give you.”
Sarah brought what her private secretary gave her to Mallory.
That was an envelope.
Mallory put down the milk glass, opened the envelope, inside were… two plane tickets with a departure date of tomorrow.
After that day, Axel disappeared and never appeared before her again.
Now he sent her something, but it was plane tickets for tomorrow.
What he wanted to express quite clearly was that he would let her leave tomorrow.
Mallory’s small oval face instantly turned pale.
“Josie, the Lewis family has planned a wedding. Axel is about to marry Skylar. The wedding date has been decided. The news of their marriage will soon be announced throughout Australia.”
Sarah said.
Mallory’s face was pale, her slender fingers tightly grasped the plane tickets. After a few seconds, she slowly said: “Where is Axel now? I want to see him.”
“Josie, it’s already this time and you still want to see Axel? If he wanted to see you, he would have met you a long time ago. He’s been with Skylar these past few days.”
Hearing these words, Mallory didn’t show too much emotion, just softly affirmed: “I want to meet him.”
“Josie! You’ve only known Axel for a few days. Do you know what kind of person he is? Has he ever told you who he is? He’s still wandering the streets, and he never told you who he was? After all, he is not a good person at all!”
Mallory’s knuckles turned white. She looked up at Sarah and said word by word: “No matter you say, I still want to meet him. Who is he and what does he want to do? You don’t have to tell. me. I just want to hear him tell me personally.”
what
Seeing the stubbornness in her daughter’s eyes, Sarah remained silent. She knew if her daughter wouldn’t give up. She wouldn’t leave here with her.
“Okay, now I’ll take you to meet Axel.”
In front of the six-star hotel, there were several luxury cars parked, and a group of tough black-clad bodyguards guarded them.
The hotel owner personally saw the distinguished guests out. Seeing such a formation, the other guests consciously walked to the other side, looked up and saw the bodyguard pulling the rope. In the dimly lit area, there were several people standing, Mr. Lewis, Axel, Skylar, and some famous characters on the streets of Australia.
It turned out to be the Lewis family, nothing strange.
The other guests didn’t dare look anymore and quickly left.
Mr. Lewis chased those big guys away, then smiled and said to Axel: “Axel, these guys are all my good friends. They’re doing very well. When Brooks was here, he really wanted to get to know them but didn’t have the chance. Now that you are married to Skylar, there are some people, objects and interests that I will naturally entrust to you.”
The Lewis family has been in Australia for a hundred years and has very wide connections. In recent years, Axel has taken over many businesses but has never touched the core.
Mr. Lewis is an old fox and won’t let go easily.
Currently, Axel is just starting to make contact.
He calmly looked towards the departing big bosses. These big bosses were all prominent people. They are the founder of a certain charity fund, the director of a certain hospital, a certain music star…
If it weren’t for today’s dinner date, who would have thought that these highly respected figures would have a close connection to the Lewis family? They are like a network, intertwined and involved in various black transactions.
Axel curled his thin lips and said: “I will behave well, sir.”
“That’s right, Dad. Axel is now your son-in-law, you can rest assured that everything will be left to him.”
Skylar sweetly grabbed Axel’s strong arm and said coyly.
Mr. Lewis nodded: “Then I’ll go back first. Axel, please take Skylar home.”
Mr. Lewis got in the car and left.
“Axel, should we go to your place tonight or to mine?”
