Chapter 279
Evie's eyelashes fluttered as she slowly awoke from her drowsiness.
The ceiling was unfamiliar to her, and she was stunned for a moment, her thoughts still a bit confused.
Where is this?
What's wrong with her?
Evie sat up and looked at the room full of decorations and the wedding dress she was wearing, and her
bewildered eyes turned to dismay.
Wedding dress?
Why did she put on the wedding dress?
Is she going to marry someone?
The memory gradually returned, she suddenly startled, and something flashed in her eyes. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
She remembers going back to the Williams Manor with the intention of visiting her grandmother with
Miller.
Miller told her to sit for a while, and then a servant handed her a glass of water.
She was a little thirsty, so she took a couple of sips.
And then
Evie pursed her lips and squeezed her fingers uncomfortably tight.
There's something wrong with that glass of water.
After she finished drinking, she just felt dizzy and sleepy.
Before passing out, she saw her stepmother's smiling face.
What do they want to do to themselves?
Do you want to sell her after she's unconscious?
Evie, startled and angry, got out of bed and walked quickly to the door to pull it open.
Only the door was locked from the outside.
She can't open it!
Evie panicked a little and rapped hard on the door panel.
"Open the door, open the door, let me out!"
Those two black-hearted people, where did they sell her to?
"The bride, she's awake."
Someone at the door heard her shouting and muttered something.
Evie leaned against the door panel to listen for movement.
A few moments later, someone came and opened the door.
Evie took two steps back in a hurry.
The people who came in were two middle-aged women followed by a man in a tuxedo.
The man's face was burned by fire and looked a little grim.
He giggled toward Evie, with drool running from the corner of his mouth.
Evie was startled and couldn't help but suck in a backward breath.
This man is wearing a tuxedo, don't tell her that Miller, the black-hearted couple, is going to marry her
off to such a man!
"The bride is awake? Let's help you put on your makeup."
The two middle-aged women said with a smile.
"Bride, to kiss and sleep sleep!"
The man drooled and laughed heatedly as he approached Evie.
Evie screamed and pushed the two middle-aged women away as she scrambled toward the door.
Two house servants stood at the door and immediately stopped her.
"Get out of the way, what do you want? Let me out!"
Evie shouted and tried to rush out.
The two servants hastily held her and pushed her into the bedroom, closing the door behind them.
"Little girl, what are you doing? Soon to be the Ward, what a blessing! Hurry up and sit down and let us
help you put on your makeup."
Two middle-aged women stepped forward and pulled Evie to the dresser and sat down.
Evie hurriedly said, "Two older ladies, I didn't volunteer, you guys let me go."
"What is not voluntary? Little girl, your parents have already accepted the bride price from the Ward
family and are about to have a wedding, you can't go back on that."
"That's right! Little girl, do you know how rich this the Ward family is? They are the richest in our town, if
the young master wasn't in this condition now, how could you have had your turn to enjoy the
blessings?"
"Not really! Little girl, we are over the people, women, ah, money is real, the other is false."
"Right! When you and the young master get married and add a son or daughter to the Ward family, you
can just wait to be the young grandmother of a rich family that everyone envies."
The middle-aged women, you and I, persuaded Evie while putting on her makeup without a word.
Evie was so angry and anxious that she waved her hands around and wouldn't let them put her
makeup on.
"Get out of the way, I didn't agree to get married, you can't force me, I want to go back!"
