Chapter B
Ryan tried to embrace me, but I turned away, and he fell flat on his face.
My father stepped forward, shouring sternly
“Ryan Shelton, since you have a new love, stop pestering Dorothy! My Lario family’s daughter doesn’t need you
Ryan actually put on a pitiful expression:[]
“Dad. Dorothy and I are childhood sweethearts. Only I truly love her! How can you lot her marry someone else?”
Then he looked at me
“Dorothy, I only sympathize with poor Jessilia and want to protect her, but you’re the one I want to spend my life with
“You’re not materialistic. I’ll buy you the same gifts Luciano gave you later. Please don’t marry him, okay?“]
At these words, not just my father, but everyone showed their disdain:]
Young Master Shelton, didn’t you just say you’d marry your little mistress? Now you truly love Dorothy again? Even Oscar winners don’t change faces as fast as you”
“Exactly. You kept saying no one would want Miss Lario except you, but now that she’s marrying into wealth, you want to follow along too?”
Luciano chuckled softly and spoke seriously
“I don’t share Young Master Shelton’s peculiar hobby of three–person weddings. The Henry family can’t afford such embarrassment.”
Everyone burst into laughter. Young Master Miller froin the Miller family, equal to the Larios, mockingly sneered without restraint]
“I get it now–Young Master Shelton doesn’t love Miss Lario, he loves the Lario family’s money! He wants to live off a woman while fooling around outside, but she’s a noble heiress, not some blind foal who only sees one rotten apple.”
“I suggest you take your little mistress home and get some sleep. She’s the treasure you worked so hard to get.“]
At these words, Ryan’s face flushed red and white alternately, but since everything they said was true, he couldn’t refute it.
Everyone continued joking and mocking while I watched calmly.]
Ryan still didn’t understand that sincere hearts shouldn’t be betrayed. Elite marriages weren’t just personal–they involved entire families.
Before, he’d relied on over ten years of relationship to threaten, toax, and suppress me, using reputation to coerce me. But he didn’t realize that high society despised his behavior even more.
While I was scorned, he thought other noble ladies would like a scumbag who cheated before marriage]
In my past life, I’d strangly opposed it, preventing hins from doing something laughable and changing people’s opinion of him.
But in this lifetime, his reputation for debauchery was destined to become a joke
Hyan wanted to retort angrily, but seeing these powerful elites, he closed his mouth with a dark expression
Finally, he angrily threw down the ring and left in frustration
Jessilia, in her expensive wedding dress, stumbled after him. At the doorway, she twisted her ankle and fell ungratefully to the ground.
With the eyesores gone, Luciano inmediately held a grand wedding ceremony just for me.]
Bright petals floated down from above as Luciano knelt on one knee, solemnly placing the ring on my finger
Everyone stood up applauding and cheering
That day. I felt valued and deeply loved for the first time
F
After the wedding. Luciano and I flew directly to the Maldives for our honeymoon.
Luciano was very gentle. Seeing my nervousness and unease, he didn’t ask me to consummate our marriage on our wedding night.
He just took me to catch crabs and collect shells on the beach, cutting fresh coconut juice for me.]
I finally accepted this gentle husband who was two years younger than me.]]
That day, the breeze was soft. Luciano lay on the beach sunbathing with a towel draped over him.
Comfortable in the warmth, he lazily turned over, and the towel slipped off his body.
1 sat in the shade nearby, looking up to see his wheat–colored skin. My gaze involuntarily moved downward to his strong eight–pack abs and beautifully defined defined waist.]
I never knew my randomly chosen husband had such a good physique. I couldn’t help but stare for a few moments
Luciano slowly opened his eyes, noticed my gaze, and chuckled softly, walking openly toward me:
“What’s the point of just looking? Touch if you want to. You’re my wife now
now–anything you do is reasonable and legal What are you afraid on
swallowed hard and couldn’t help but reach out to touch those firm pecs, then moved down to his V–lines and abs.
My face gradually reddened, and my eyes couldn’t help but glance at his lower area. The impressive bulge heneath his swim trunks made me gasp internally
Luciano pulled me into his arms with a satisfied sigh
“Dorothy, I know you can’t accept me right away, but I really, really like you.”
“Ever since I first met you in that snowstorm when I was eight, I fell for your lively charm.“]
“For so many years, your image has echoed in my mind. I don’t want to wait anymore.”
Luciano kissed my lips fiercely, as if wanting to devour me completely
That day. I was carried, kissed, and touched into the room in a daze.
That night, Luciano proved through action what insatiable meant.]
He didn’t stop until dawn, when I finally fell asleep in confusion while he continued kissing me reluctantly!
