MTL - Good God, Stop! - ~ Chapter 10

Power comes with a cost... and it was something she was willing to trade her soul for.A few nights before her wedding, Lauren sought a way to break her fourth engagement. Known for her bad reputation as the rebel princess, she was the only lady who had the guts to step foot on the Everston mansion, the house of a notorious warlord, in the middle of the night.She offered him a wicked alliance that the entire kingdom did not see coming: a marriage.A vixen pretending to be a damsel in distress and a man whose crimson eyes screaming for bloodshed. Could something blossom in this treacherous dance of lies and deception?--“Are you upset?”She eyed him sharply. “Should I be honored that I got tricked by you, milord?”He drank the remaining wine in his glass with one gulp and put it on the wooden table.He stepped in front of her. His hand was on the rail on her side while his other hand grabbed her glass and finished her wine before putting it down.The way his Adam's apple moved with his every violent gulp made her feel a tickling heat around her nape.When he brought his attention back to her, he licked his lips to wipe off the trace of wine.“How shall I make it up to you then?” he asked with his deep voice, like a seductive devil asking his victim how she would like to be killed. Dangerous yet… enthralling.

“It’s fine, everything can be restarted.”Gu Huanyue opened her eyes slowly and a smile shown on her face.In her previous life, she was betrayed by her relatives and missed the right one eventually.Now that the god gave her another chance, she must regain all her lost and let those people who hurt her pay the price.This time, her business was developed and expanded so quickly with the help of her super EQ & IQ.She became the most shining and rich one. All kinds of handsome men were attracted by her beauty and became her loyal followers.However, she won’t never forget that man. A guy who truly love her so much.He: “Huanyue, would you like to marry me?”She: “Why did he not follow my plan? But yes, I do.”

In the beginning, I just wanted to solve life problems.

Then, I didn’t want to admit defeat, I didn’t want to just leave in such a daze.

Next, now that you’ve stood your ground, why not do it better.

Finally, as I have always insisted, when you decide to invest in something, you must do it to the best of your ability!
