Chapter 1: The Betrayal of a Bad Man
Accompanied by the sacred and solemn wedding march, dressed in a white wedding dress, Annie stepped on the red carpet under her feet and walked towards Rennes, who stood at the other end with flowers in his hand.
Rennes wore a white suit, the golden light poured over his body like a layer of soft light, the gentle and noble temperament of his body set off to the fullest, as when the teenager.
They have known each other for three years, these three years through the storm, now she finally got her wish to marry him.
The only pity was that her marriage was not well received by her family.
The moment Rennes stepped forward to hand her the bouquet, Annie's eyes glistened with tears of joy.
The priest stood on the stage, looking charitably at the couple in front of him, ‘Groom, do you take this woman to be your wife in marriage? In sickness and in health, or for any other reason, to love her, to care for her, to honour her, to accept her, and to be faithful to her always until the end of your life?’
Annie forced down the fluttering in her heart and gazed expectantly at Rennes, wanting to hear the affirmation from his lips.
Rennes, his face hard and not so throbbing, hesitated to speak.
Just then ......
‘Brother, it's not good!’ Eliza, who was suddenly blurring with tears, burst in from outside and interrupted Rennes, choking like a helpless child, ‘Sister Eileen, she, she ......’
Annie's heart surged with a sense of uneasy foreboding, her eyebrows looked at Rennes with a bit of unawareness of the tension, and her grip on Rennes' hand subconsciously tightened by a few points.
Annie knew only too well how important the name Eileen was to Rennes.
That was the first person Rennes fell in love with, and it was the love of Rennes' life.
When the Lu family fell, Eileen gave up Rennes for the chance to go abroad, and Rennes, who is also a proud person, cut off all contact with Eileen and chose Annie instead.
But just a month ago, Eileen suddenly appeared.
Rennes instantly turned pale, his taut voice dripping with panic, ‘Eileen, what happened to her!’
‘Eileen sis, she's bleeding a lot, a lot, how can't stop it, the doctor said that she, said that her life is likely to be in danger!’ Eliza said.
At those words, Rennes shook off Annie's hand and rushed out with great strides.
‘You can't leave!’ Annie stepped forward and tightly grasped Rennes' hand, her body trembling uncontrollably, her eyes staring at him in death, ’ Rennes , today is our wedding ceremony, are you sure you want to leave?’
The whispers from the stage and the veiled and sarcastic gazes fell on her body, like a sharp blade piercing into her heart.
She looked at Rennes with red eyes and begged in a humble tone, ‘ Rennes, can we finish the wedding first?’
‘Eileen, she was hit by a car and hospitalised to save me, I can't leave her behind.’
Rennes tried to shake off Annie's hand, but found that the woman in front of him was very stubborn, his face couldn't help but sink for a few points, his gaze revealing a few points of shadowy, ‘Annie, you know clearly in your heart, this marriage between you and me is a transaction, you only need to do a good job of your Mrs Lu, my things don't need you to meddle in! ’
Transaction ......
Annie's pupils clenched, incredulously looking at Rennes' cold and resolute face, the shock in her eyes slowly turned into a faint mockery.
Suddenly the corner of her mouth pulls out a sneer arc, her soft voice is mixed with a trace of grief, ‘So in your eyes, between us is just a deal?!’
‘Yes!’ Rennes' reply was decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Annie's heart tightened, as if it had been harshly hammered, flooded with sheer pain.
Rennes dropped a painless ‘I'm sorry’ in a perfunctory manner and hurriedly left.
Annie stood still and looked at Rennes' back, her heart felt as if it had been cut open by a blunt knife, and it was so painful that it was hard to breathe.
From the bottom of her feet rose a chill that swept through her limbs and bones.
Back then, when Rennes took over the Lu family, the Lu family happened to have a broken capital chain and was facing the crisis of declaring bankruptcy.
It was he who personally said that the company was in turmoil and had no way to give her a secure future, and promised her that he would marry her when the company was on the right track.
Over the years, she has always taken Rennes' promise to heart, and in order to get her family to accept Rennes and marry him, she has used her position to advise him and fight in the shopping malls, helping him go from being a nobody to being in the limelight.
But she didn't want to spend three years together, but in his eyes it was just a deal.
The original love, from the beginning to the end of the heart only themselves!
Her three years have to accompany pay in front of the white moonlight is simply a joke.
Annie teeth bite the lips, forced to hold back the tears in the eyes, but the tears are like broken beads, simply can not control.
The heartache was screaming madly inside her body, causing her body to tremble.
Eliza who was standing next to her saw her in this sorry state and couldn't help but show a gloating smile on her face, ‘Annie, if it wasn't for you pestering me all these years, how could my brother agree to marry a country woman like you who has no education and no family background, if you're sensible, then take the initiative and hurry up and get the hell out of the Lu family!’
Annie listened to Eliza's brazen words, and only felt her heart cold: ‘Have you forgotten that without me there is no Lu family now!’
‘Don't you talk rubbish here!’ Eliza pointed at Annie's nose and said furiously, ‘Do you really think you're some kind of big shot? Without you, our Lu family will still thrive!’
Annie's heart clenched in pain, is this how she is viewed in the eyes of the Lu family?
‘Okay! Let's leave things as they are today.’ Mrs Lu looked impatient and got up and walked to Annie's front, her eyes flashed with disgust as if she had seen what made her sick, ‘Look what you look like now, you're a disgrace, but our Lu family can't afford to lose this person with you!’
After that, Mrs Lu greeted today's guests with an appropriate smile on her face.
Annie stood in place and watched the guests leave in twos and threes her long-awaited wedding, how did it become a complete joke?
Why did she get such an answer in the end for all her hard work?
Just because she fell in love with a man who didn't love her?
Annie slowly closed her eyes, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes again, like fragile and helpless glass.
Half an hour later, Annie walked aimlessly on the cold streets, like a wandering soul without a home.
The sky unknowingly started to rain, and the bean-sized rain gradually turned into a downpour.
She looked around, in addition to not far away from the bus stop around no place to shelter from the rain, can only bare feet quickly run over.
The sharp stones cut the soles of Annie's feet, she frowned in pain, gritted her teeth and limped on towards the bus stop.
Drip-
An ear-piercing honking sound resounded throughout the cold street at first.
Looking at the car that came speeding by, Annie couldn't help but stare with wide eyes, her pupils trembling violently.
Annie's brain was left blank, her legs were like lead, unable to move half a point.
The speeding car was like a piece of black lightning passing by her.
The powerful airflow lifted Annie to the ground.
I thought the car would take advantage of the opportunity to leave, after all, the place is empty, even if the escape will not be caught any handle.
But to our surprise, the car turned back and finally stopped in front of Annie.
The door of the car opens, the entrance is a pair of handmade customised black leather shoes, straight and slender legs walk towards Annie with resounding steps, a black umbrella tilts towards Annie, shielding her from the heavy rain that ravages her.
‘Are you okay?’ jack's low and cool voice gradually and clearly travelled into Annie's ears.
Annie raised his eyes and looked, the man in front of him has a sharp facial contour and clear jaw line, his features are exquisite and three-dimensional, especially that pair of deep black eyes seem to be penetrating the depths of a cluster of dark mango extraordinarily seductive.
This pair of eyes ...... she vaguely seems to have seen where?
But can not remember exactly where she has seen.
