MARRIAGE ARRANGEMENT
1. Provide a whole and warm family for Loreine Summer Richie
2. Act as a harmonious husband and wife and parents in front of Loreine and strangers
3. Both parties must prioritize Loreine above their respective jobs
4. No harm or interference should be allowed in the internal affairs of the Richard Calvin family.
5. Qiao Anxia reserves the right to have fortune as much as possible as long as it is not for her work.
6. Qiao Anxia has the right to set the house rules that Richard Calvin and Loreine will live in together.
.....
And various other things made Anxia wonder.
These deal numbers were more concerned with Lori’s and her interests, and none of them concerned the man’s interests. Richard did not demand a wife’s duty to satisfy his life or something like that. How could Anxia refuse toward agreement like this?
If it were an average girl who loved money, she would have immediately agreed to this marriage agreement and signed it there and then. But Anxia wasn’t your average girl, and she didn’t allow herself to be overwhelmed with excitement to claim a heavy fortune.
Anxia continued to read the numbers very carefully until the end. And it was true what she thought. Several points were not in her favor at the very back.
This agreement ordered her to cut off contact with Master Yu or other co-workers once she signed the deal. That means Richard already knows her true career.
There was also the point that Anxia was not allowed to leave the house unattended and that everyone she encountered would be reported to Richard.
Even though only two rules were not in her favor, Anxia felt that these two rules were like dozens of other numbers holding her back. freewebnov(e)l
Anxia had to think twice before signing. She didn’t want to be rash. Right now, she was too tired and wanted to see his daughter immediately. freewebnove(l).com
“Your offer is indeed tempting, but give me some time.”
“No. My offer will expire at dawn.”
“What?”
“Also, once you’re done signing, and you break just one of them, I’ll make sure you can’t find Lori.”
Anxia bit her lip in frustration hearing this. She had to contact Ling Meng at least so that her friend could figure out a way to get her out of here without Richard knowing. But how could she reach her friend if Richard didn’t intend to give her time to think? Plus, he wasn’t sure Ling Meng had woken up from her stupor because she had injected a sedative to make her asleep for twenty-four hours.
“It’s four o’clock, and soon the sun will rise. The ball is in your hand now.”
Anxia glanced at the window, which was now a dark orange color due to the sun peeking at the other end.
Richard’s expression at this time looked even and relaxed, as if he had nothing to lose, whether Anxia accepted his offer or not. But the truth is, Richard’s heart was pounding with anxiety.
His demeanor and look showed great confidence, but he wasn’t sure if Anxia would accept his offer. If it were another woman, Richard wouldn’t have worried. But this one was not another woman.
This woman was Qiao Anxia. Women who grew up surrounded by a world of violence had to think twice about taking action. This woman can also kill people without batting her eyes and is resistant to minor injuries on her body.
This woman does not think about her appearance and is very indifferent to gossiping about the people around her.
Above all... this woman is exceptionally loyal.
Once Anxia cherished someone, she would never betray and do everything she could to protect that person.
Something Richard never knew Anxia had this side.
How could he find such a woman like her?
Above all, Richard’s investigation found out that Anxia tried her best to conceal her pregnancy and tried to escape from master Yu’s radar.
After years of successfully hiding without leaving a trace, Master Yu contacted her via a secret darknet and sent a photo of her mother. The mother, who should have died many years ago, suddenly appeared in a famous boutique shop in Frankfurt.
Thinking her mother was still alive, Anxia tried to find her mother before the older woman was captured by master Yu and used as a tool to control her.
Knowing this side of Anxia, ??how could Richard let her go?
That’s why he was worried that Anxia decided to reject his offer and would fight it with all her might. He was afraid that using their daughter would not be enough to make her willing to leave her job, which often put her life in danger.
But Richard didn’t show it, and he still wore a cozy expression and looked indifferent. So that when Anxia investigated his even countenance, Anxia felt like she had lost.
“Okay. I will accept it.”
Only then could Richard breathe a sigh of relief. Although not visible, in Richard’s heart, he was jumping with joy like a child getting a new toy.
Richard had no idea what kind of evil plan was now filling Qiao Anxia’s mind.
‘I will make him fall in love with me and be kind to all his family. No matter how long I wait, I will kill him when he is caught off guard and then take all his assets. This way, I can become closer to Michele’s family and continue my pending revenge plans.’
Anxia didn’t need Ling Meng or the others. As long as she gained control of the Calvin family digital company, she could take on one of Stanley’s legendary digital programs.
Tiffany III.
Once Tiffany III was in her hands, Anxia was sure she could carry out her pending revenge plan. Plus, she could break away from master Yu and become a free woman.
She never expected that her closed heart filled with vengeful feelings would dissolve because of Calvin’s family’s warmth and loving care.
