Sweet Marriage: Can't Love You Too Much

Chapter 1 Surprise

When Nell Jennings arrived at Lihua Hotel, it was already 11:00 p.m. at night. At a time like this, it was not safe for a person working in a business selling adult products to make deliveries in person. Especially since she was a young and beautiful girl.

However, there was no other option. Life was not easy. Everything needed money. from food to clothing to housing to transportation. Besides, Jason Morton would be coming back in a few days.

They had been dating for six years, but he spent more than half that time away from her. He had to take care of business both at home and abroad, so she naturally could not hold him back.

Fortunately, they had deep feelings for each other. She also ran a small business in addition to her daily work, so she would definitely be able to give him a surprise on his birthday in a few days.

At this thought, Nell's lips lifted silently as she smiled.

She pulled the brim of the black hat on her head snugly before grabbing the delivery box and making her way inside.

Linua Hotel was a famous money squandering establishment in Jincheng.

Most of the people who came here to spend money were wealthy and respectable people.

Needless to say, the hall was furnished lavishly, and even the elevators were lined with gold and silver.

When a person stood under the lights, they would only feel ashamed of their own shabbiness in comparison.

Nell simply held the box and did not let her eyes wander.

Her beautiful face was covered by a mask, revealing only a pair of deep and calm eyes which gave off a hint of cold aloofness. The elevator stopped on the 22nd floor with a ‘ding’. She walked out, quickly found Room 2202, and rang the doorbell. Even before the door opened, there were already licentious and fevered moans of a man and woman sounding from inside. "Jay, ah... Stop. It seems our gift has arrived.”

"Wait, I'll get it."

Nell's mouth could not help but curl as she stood outside the door.

‘How eager!"

The door quickly opened, and a freshly-showered man wearing a bathrobe appeared.

Nell did not look at him and simply handed the box over. "843 yuan! Cash or WeChat?"

The person opposite her did not move.

Two seconds later, a hesitant voice sounded, "...Nelly?”

Nell was slightly startled and raised her head.

The man standing by the door was tall, with short and damp hair. He wore only a white bathrobe, and under the glow of the warm yellow light, his. handsome face was filled with surprise, dismay, and... A hint of panic.

Nell's face instantly went cold. "Jason, who is it?” “It's no one. Just the delivery man.”

Jason Morton spoke out hastily before Nell could make a sound. He quickly took out a wad of bills from his wallet and stuffed them into her hand before snatching the box from her.

The door slammed shut with a ‘bang’,

Nell stood there, her fingertips trembling slightly. Her face was pale.

The next moment, she suddenly sneered.

She looked at the stack of banknotes in her hand as if she had seen an amazing joke, and mocked her ignorance and stupidity. When the sounds of lovemaking started inside, she took a deep breath and forced back the sting in her eyes.

Then, she turned around and pulled out her phone as she headed for the elevator.

"Hello, yes, is this Municipal Public Security Bureau? I'd like to report that someone is taking drugs and engaging in prostitution in Linua Hotel. The room number is...”

Twenty minutes later.

A police car parked in front of the Linua Hotel along with several media reporters carrying cameras.

As the people in the hotel were escorted out, the reporters rushed forward.

"Mr. Morton, someone reported that you were taking drugs and hiring prostitutes in this hotel. Is this true?” "Mr. Morton, as the heir to Morton Corporation, do you think this kind of behavior is right?”

"Mr. Morton, who was the woman with you? There are rumors that she's a paid escort from the entertainment industry. Is that true?" "Mr. Morton..."

Jason was so surrounded by reporters that not even the police could stop them.

After a while, he could no longer endure it and roared with rage. "Scram!"

The reporters were startled but backed away.

Jason looked past the crowd and stared straight at Nell. His eyes were full of hatred and ruthlessness. "Was this what you wanted?"

Nell smiled coldly as a hint of mockery flashed across her eyes.

"Even if you do this, you'll never obtain me!”

Nell suddenly walked forward and raised her hand in front of all the reporters and police-

"Slap!"

With a stinging slap to the side of his face, Jason's head was snapped to the side.

The surroundings suddenly grew silent.

A policeman opened his mouth. "Ma'am..."

"Sorry, my hand slipped.”

She smiled faintly and rubbed her wrist. Her voice was clear and cold as she looked at Jason with resentment.

‘Do you think I'd care about a piece. of scrap paper that fell into the 7 toilet? You can think of that slap’ as interest. I'll collect the remaining prificipal within the next three days!"

Jason's eyes flashed with panic. "W-What principal?”

Nell raised her eyebrows. "Do you really want me to remind you?"

Jason's face immediately went white.

She smiled cooly, full of ridicule and contempt.

When the police saw that they had nothing more to say, he waved his hand and escorted the people into the car.

Now that they had been taken away, the journalists had no reason to stay any longer. They also began to leave.

The hotel entrance that was originally swarmed suddenly became empty.

Nell stood there for a short while until and waited until it got easier to breath before leaving.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned her head, her sight was met with a pair of deep and searching eyes.

They belonged te a young man in a dark suit. He had a tall and straight figure, neat short hair, and eyes as deep as a bottomless sea of stars.

Under the cover of the night, his handsome features breathed a clear and timeless nobility that was at odds with the debauched and corrupt environment around him.

Nell’s heart shook.

In the back of her mind, she thought that he looked familiar.

However, when-she looked back at him again, her gaze secretly trailed to the secretary behind him as wel as the silver Porsche parked beside them then, she felt that there Was no way she knew such an — eyeéatching person. Content ©

Shrugging it off. she finally turned to leave.

When the petite figure blended into the traffic. Gideon Leith looked away and asked softly, "Who was that earlier?”

Behind him, Matthew Starks quickly replied. "Do-you mean the person

~ . who was taken away by the police-> earlier? t Ne seems to be the son of the owner of Morton Corporation. He just returned from abroacha few days ago." to 4

Gideon frowned slightly. "I'm talking about the girl.”

"Pardon?" Matthew was slightly confused. "What girl?”

Noting that Gideon's expression turned unpleasant, Matthew immediately reacted. "My apologies, Mr. President. I'll check right away.. "No need.”

Gideon interrupted her. He thought deeply for a few seconds and suddenly remembered something.

A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes and he once again looked in the direction the girl left in. His lips hooked up in a smile.

Then, he finally walked inside.

As the person who made the report, Nell also followed the police back to the station.

As soon as she finished her statement, a group of people barged in from outside.

The head of the group was the grandmether of the Jennings family, Sylvia Walker. She rushed forward and gave Nell a big tight slap. Nell frowned as a metallic taste spread in her mouth. She looked up coldly at the people standing across from her.

“You wench!"

Sylvia trembled in anger. "You knew very well that was your younger sister yet you still called the cops on her? Are you trying to anger me to death?!" Nell wiped off the blood from the corner of her lips and looked up at the woman in front of her mockingly.

"My sister? Are you talking about Celine?"

"What are you acting dumb for? Word has spread all over saying that the second young daughter of the Jennings family seduced someone else s fiance.

You're the one who caused all this, but you didn't even know that?”

Nell lowered her eyes and laughed softly. 2 “So that woman was her! I thought it was just a random prostitute eager to make some money, but it turned out to be my own sister?”
