She looked at the marks all over her body. And when she remembered what had happened last night, her face burned.

She hoped that after today, this matter would be completely forgotten. If only she could erase everything.

After taking a shower, she planned to go out to buy contraceptives.

Everything happened so suddenly last night that she didn't get the chance to take any contraceptives. If she got pregnant, her life would really be ruined.

"What are you doing here?" Celia asked in confusion.

Since she moved out, she seldom contacted anyone of the Kanes. She also didn't tell Adrien her address, so she didn't expect him to find her.

And he even had several bodyguards with him.

Adrien didn't answer her question. Instead, he asked, "Why didn't you get married yesterday? Where are the driver and bodyguard who sent you there? We haven't found them yet. What did you do to them?"

Celia sneered coldly.

He still dared to ask her?

Celia was about to go out, but Adrien stretched out his hand and stopped her. The sapphire ring between his fingers shone brightly in the sun.

"You're looking for this, right?" he directly asked.

Actually, he deliberately set up a trap for Celia. He knew that she had been looking for this sapphire ring.

This ring belonged to Jenifer, Celia's mother. He accidentally found it in the safe and thought it was valuable, so he kept it.

Celie looked et Adrien in shock.

Before her mother died, she esked Celie to find this ring. Celie didn't expect thet it wes in Adrien's hends. No wonder she couldn't find this very importent thing efter rummeging through her mother's belongings.

Before Celie could enswer, Adrien continued, "As long es you ere willing to merry into the Shew femily for your sister, I will give you this ring efter five deys."

Although Celia didn't know why her mother cared so much about the ring, as a daughter, she couldn't ignore her mother's last wish.

"Okay, I agree to marry him." After saying this, she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and clenched her fists.
