"Snap"
A crystal clear chandelier is turned on, the wedding room is plastered with the character for "happiness," and sitting on the large red bed is a bride dressed in white. Every aspect of the opulent room is broadcasting festivity.
"Elizabeth Holmes, I didn't expect you to be so capable."
"Using such despicable means to force me to marry you, the price is something you can't afford!"
A deep, magnetic voice resonates in the quiet room.
Elizabeth Holmes opens her beautiful almond eyes and instinctively grips the sheets. In the next second, her throat is violently grasped.
The man before her, clutching her and seeming to wish her dead, is her new husband, Harrison Green.
Harrison Green, the most powerful man in the empire, enjoys an overbearing status from a young age, and with one stomping foot, the entire empire would tremble.
Tall and sturdy, he's dressed in a black shirt and tight pants, outlining a perfect figure. The buttons on his chest are undone, providing a touch of restrained visual appeal.
His noble features are like a finely sculpted work of art, a tall nose, delicate peach blossom eyes, tight lips, and well-defined facial profile all emanate a cold aura.
His distinctively jointed palm is tightly gripping Elizabeth Holmes's throat, his ruthless and cruel demeanor is as if he were about to strangle her to death right then and there.
At first, Elizabeth Holmes struggles, but in the end, she closes her eyes resignedly, her long eyelashes forming a fanlike shape.
She knows, Harrison Green is ruthless and strong-handed. Considering how she's done harm to his family's reputation today, it's inevitable that Harrison Green wouldn’t easily let her off.
Looking at Elizabeth Holmes, desolate as if she meant to give up living, Harrison Green's eyes suddenly narrow, and he releases his clenched fist, continuing to press her, "Speak, what is your purpose for impersonating your sister and infiltrating the Green's family?"
Purpose?
Elizabeth Holmes gave a cough. She did not have any hidden motives.
This morning, when she woke up, she found herself already inside the wedding car. She had no idea who had sneakily bundled her in, her own sister was nowhere to be found.
There were so many guests and the Green family relatives present at the time. She couldn't just drop everything and flee the wedding.
Elizabeth Holmes had liked Harrison Green since childhood, but she had never spoken of her feelings.
A month ago, the Holmes family was on the verge of bankruptcy. The Green family had had a marriage contract with the Holmes family for a long time, and Harrison Green's parents were fond of the pretty and intelligent Holmes Charlotte. Thus, the marriage was brought forward.
The day before, Holmes Charlotte deliberately showed off in front of Elizabeth Holmes, saying she was going to marry Harrison Green. Elizabeth Holmes's heart was being shredded. She thought that she would never be able to catch up with the man she loves in this life.
Originally, Elizabeth Holmes had already given up on the idea of continuing to yearn for Harrison Green. But the heavens gave her another chance, even if she did not know who had put her into the wedding and what the motive was.
However, the situation was already established. She was willing to bear the humiliation, but she absolutely could not let Harrison Green lose face.
Therefore, amidst the deafening insulting voices, she still chose to marry into the Green family.
After causing such a big stir today, the Green family is a revered figure in the empire, they cannot afford to lose face. Under up-the-wall circumstances, they admitted to the marriage on the spot.
Elizabeth Holmes will never forget the look in Harrison Green's eyes at that time, as if he wishes to tear her into pieces.
She thought, Harrison Green probably likes her own sister very much, otherwise, how could he agree to this marriage. Now, she thinks she ruined it, it would be understandable if he resents and hates her.
Upon thinking this, Elizabeth Holmes suddenly felt wronged and thus unashamedly asked: "Have you and my sister gotten your marriage certificate?"
Harrison Green was startled, his cold eyes slightly narrowed.
"Since you haven't, how can it be considered as impersonation by me?"
"You... are more than good!" Harrison Green could not contain his rage, ripping the remaining buttons from his shirt, revealing his well-built muscles and a perfectly sexy collarbone. He then coldly said to Elizabeth Holmes, "Strip."
His words are short, powerful, and carry an intense oppressive feeling.
Elizabeth Holmes bit her lip, looking at him as if she did not understand, "What?"
Harrison Green's bewitching voice resonated again in the room, "What? Aren't you intending to fulfill your duties as a wife?"
"Do you think the title of Mrs. Green is handed to you for nothing?"
