Chapter 2 As You Wish
Chapter 2 As You Wish
“Do I seem like I’m joking?” Nova let out a smile. “Ewan, uncle Alfred, you both know clearly well why me and Ewan should get married. It’s of course for the long-term development of our two families. In a business alliance, profit triumphs over love. I won’t look into today’s accident as long as you don’t mind it.”
Her words were pretty clear and she didn’t care about the affair between Ella and Ewan. This wedding can proceed.
Nobody present expected Nova’s attitude. Though she and Ella were both Graham’s daughters, Nova controlled half of Graham’s family business and was far more competent. This was also why
Though Ella was also Graham’s daughter, she was nothing like Nova both in terms of intelligence and experience. Everybody knew that Nova was the primary heir and had the final say in Grahams. Marrying her was like having half of the Grahams. Otherwise, Robinsons wouldn’t mind marring Ella.
But now Ella was pregnant. How can they have a deal with Grahams?
But before Robinsons can say anything, Lucie suddenly yelled, “Nova, what do you mean by raising up the baby for Ella? How can she get married later after she delivers the baby?”
“Abort the baby then.”
Nova said coldly. “Ella was being a slut herself. Well, aunt Lucie, do you want Ewan to be responsible for her? Doesn’t it sound like a joke to other people?”
Lucie’s face darkened and Toby was also frowning.
Alfred then said, “Nova, of course we want you to be our daughter-in-law.”
Clearly, he wanted the Grahams to sort out this problem themselves.
Nova looked at Toby and was waiting for him to speak. She surly wanted to know how her father would deal with this accident. Did he want her to be left at the altar today or to save Grahams’ reputation by sacrificing Ella.
Toby was biting his lips with eyebrows furrowed.
Lucie changed her face and said to Toby lowly, “Toby, this is related with Ella’s reputation for a lifetime. You have to think about this carefully.”
Ella stared at Toby with tears welling up in her eyes. Nova had predicted Toby’s decision, but she wanted him to say it himself, hoping that he would help her.
He thought for a while and looked at Nova, “Nova, let’s postpone the wedding for now. We will talk about this when the whole thing is dealt with. “
Nova was heartbroken and glared at biased Toby. Then she said, “How? Do you mean that we probably would never get married if this thing were not sorted out? Why can’t you be straight with me and just break off this engagement.”
Toby naturally knew by doing this he will break Nova’s heart, but Ella was unlike Nova who can take care of everything. Ella was still a baby. If he didn’t handle this well, Ella was done for this life. Though he was extremely mad at Ewan and was sorry to Nova, he must be callous. “Nova. You’ve always been considerate. You know how much damage it would cause if this thing is hyped up. I’m begging you.”
Nova suddenly beamed. In Ewan’s mind, she seldom smiled and was always indifferent. This unexpected smile was as sweet as a candy but with irony and coldness.
“As you wish.”
Nova lifted her train and straight left after she finished these three words.
“Nova.”
It seemed like that someone had called her name, but she didn’t turn around. Because she knew that no one was expecting her.
Rain was pouring down outside, but Nova was racing the car on the road.
If someone passed by at this moment, he can definitely see a gorgeous woman who looked like that she just walked out a painting. But her eyes were reddened as if she’d cried. If Ewan saw this scene, he must be surprised that Nova wasn’t actually indestructible and she too would cry.
Driving to a club, Nova ripped the train of her wedding dress and turned it into a skirt. She then walked into the club.
In a white skirt, her sexy vibe was nothing like club girl’s, but was unbelievably enchanting.
She denied every man who tried to hit on her and was drinking alone in the counter. She may be drunk, but she was lucid in mind.
She knew that someone had carried her from the club to a hotel and what would happen afterwards. But she was too tired and sad to fight back.
She was tossed on a bed and heard someone talking on the phone. The stranger even looked at her with pity when he left.
Nova turned over and sat up. She was a bit thirsty and was trying to find the water.
But when she opened the bedroom door, she saw a bearded guy standing in the living room.
He was soaked with water and his clothes outlined his muscular figure. Nova was suddenly parched.
The man seemed surprised. He didn’t expect that a woman would appear in the bedroom who was pretty naked with her two legs revealed. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Glancing at Nova, he didn’t say anything. His eyes were as dark and clear as a bottomless pool.
‘What a beautiful pair of eyes!’ Nova thought inside. His eyes were even matching with his disheveled beard. He was extremely hot.
She must be drunk.
She would’ve probably already left if she were sober. But now, she was staring at this man and asked lowly, “Aren’t you thirsty?”
A trace of disdain fled past man’s eyes. He seemed like to loath Nova’s frivolity.
A sober Nova must be angry with this kind of look, but now she just longed for man’s collarbone and chest.
The water in his beard trickled down to his collar and disappeared into his chest. Nova felt even more thirsty looking at this sexy scene.
The man was displeased by Nova’s staring and felt awkward.
“Have you had enough?”
