Ch. 5Chapter 5: Run away


Simon said nothing, Aretha said truthfully: "Arianne, to tell you the truth, me and Simon have been together since a year ago. I know it's not right, but me and Simon really love each other, our whole life. You're my sister, stealing my sister's boyfriend there so you can marry in William's house for me. I robbed your Simon, so I decided to give Christopher to you, and now you've successfully married into William's house, aren't we even?"
"Nonsense!", Arianne's whole body trembled, stared at her, gritted her teeth and said: "Aretha, you scoundrel who stole someone else's boyfriend and yet shamelessly praised yourself! Do you need it? You think I don't know what's on your mind? Obviously you don't dare to marry Christopher, and you dare not refuse this marriage, so you plan to let me marry Christopher instead of you. How can you be so despicable and dishonorable?".
The day before, the William family brought the bride to the Elizabeth family, just wanted Aretha - the queen of the Elizabeth family, the father panicked, then began to target her stepdaughter. Unexpectedly, after she refused categorically, her father devised a plot that Aretha was destroyed, punching and massaging her to marry her into William's house.
“Looks like you're not stupid at all, yes, I like Simon, I want to marry Simon, so leave it to me and Simon, even if I don't marry you to the William family, Dad will marry you to someone else. As for the marriage of the William family, the Elizabeth family can neither refuse nor have the courage to refuse, so it's only your loss", Aretha suddenly assessed her with surprise: "That's right, listen. Rumor has it that Christopher is a sick child, and his wife and women can't live, why can't you live until the day you return?"
After saying that, she sneered sarcastically: "But don't be complacent, even if you're okay now, you'll soon die at Nam Cung's house."
"You..." Arianne gritted her teeth in anger.
Aretha did not notice her anger, leaning closer to stare at her: "This is the end for your mother seducing my father, and also the end for a stepchild like you".
“Oh… and this face of yours too: "Aretha turned around, looked at Aretha with a smile and said: "Simon, do you know why he looks exactly like me? Because...".
"You shut up!", Arianne yelled, slapping her face with her fist, but Simon grabbed her wrist next to her.
Simon's face was fierce: "Arianne, the boat has been built, don't fight in vain here, I will treat your wound first, then take you back to Nam Cung's house".
Arianne turned her angry gaze to him, gritted her teeth and sobbed, "Aretha, is this your attitude? Did you really fall in love with her a year ago?".
Her finger lifted, pointed directly at Aretha.
Aretha looked at her, finally nodding: "Sorry...".
Hearing his 'sorry', Arianne's heart broke, no wonder a week ago when she told him in tears that she had to marry Christopher, the distressed reaction he gave was so deceitful, fake to the point of not even holding her back a few more times.
"Good sister, are you going to give up now?", Aretha smiled proudly, deliberately leaning into Simon's lap, tiptoeing to kiss him on the lips.
Such a provocation, no matter how weak a person is, they must know how to resist.
Arianne nodded, then sneered: "Very good, but don't be too proud, you think I'm easy to bully? will not let you achieve a trick."
"What do you want to do?", Aretha's face darkened.
“Now I will go back and tell old Lady William, my name is Arianne, not Elizabeth, everything was planned by you and Young Master Simon. Tell me, if the old lady knows this truth, will the Elizabeth and the Simon family be able to stand in the city? Are the two of you still in a bad mood here?"
"You're crazy!", Aretha impatiently: "If you tell the truth, you won't be able to live yourself."
"If you are buried with me, I will die with honor!"
"How dare you!".
Faced with Aretha's domination, Arianne just smirked, then turned and hurried downstairs.
Aretha furiously chased down, calling the servants downstairs to help arrest her, Arianne sped up her steps, quickly dashing towards the gate.
Tears rolled down her cheeks, blurring her eyes.
Her footsteps ran faster and faster, just wanted to quickly run away from this disgusting couple.
Behind him, Aretha shouted angrily: "Simon, catch him, hurry, don't let him run away...".
The Elizabeth family's main door only needs to go a short distance to reach the main road, due to tears blurring the view, Arianne impatiently does not see the oncoming Skyker, rushes in.
Originally, she had injured her forehead, this impact had just hit the original wound, so painful that she was dizzy.
Right after that, she was hugged by a man on the elbow, a familiar low, sexy voice sounded in her ear: "Want to die?", a pleasant sound that seemed unhappy.
She raised her tear-stained face, her eyes looking through the tears into his. Sure enough, his face was as perfect as his voice, so handsome that there was no reason to be. Apart from the paleness of a serious illness that had just recovered, everything else could be said to be beautiful.
She determined that she had never met the man in front of her, she was not in the mood to think why she felt his voice was familiar, just wanted to quickly run away from the other two despicable people.
"Please... take me away," she said to him almost pleadingly.
She did not recognize Christopher, Christopher recognized her at first sight, seeing the blood flowing non-stop on her forehead, after a little hesitation, he picked her up and walked towards the car.
"You bastard, don't go! Stop for me!", when Aretha chased them out, she often saw Arianne being carried by Christopher into a luxury car.
Waiting for her to chase her, the luxury car restarted and was on the road.
Simon drove to the place, Aretha stepped forward, after pulling open the door to the car, said: "I saw it running after a man, it's the Skyker in front, hurry up..." .
Simon nodded, stomping on the gas pedal.
Christopher parked the car at the door of Hong An Hospital, after stopping the car, hugged Arianne who was dreaming from the back of the car and went into the hospital.
The doctor saw Christopher and asked in surprise, "Young master, haven't you just been discharged from the hospital? Why have you come back?".
"Carelessly bumping into people, please help me handle it a bit," he put Arianne on the mobile hospital bed for the doctor to treat.
