Chapter 1: Framed and Forced to Divorce
In the early summer, Ye Ningxuan sat in the car sent by the Ye family and drove to Jiang City from the countryside.
When her parents died at the age of six, she was abandoned by the Ye family in the countryside. The reason why they brought her back today was to fulfill the marriage contract with the Lin family.
Her mother and Mrs. Lin were like sisters. They had arranged a marriage before she was born.
No matter how dissatisfied the Ye family was with her, Mrs. Lin only acknowledged her as her daughter-in-law. The Ye family could only bring her back.
“Crack.
The car suddenly stopped.
Ye Ningxuan, who was sitting in the car, swayed. She frowned slightly and asked slowly, “What happened?”
The driver stopped the car and said, “The car broke down.”
Ye Ningxuan’s face was covered in a thin veil, so her appearance couldn’t be seen clearly. However, her long, shapely eyebrows were graceful, and under her long, shapely eyebrows was a pair of sparkly eyes that were like autumn water. Her flickering eyes were mesmerizing.
“Can you fix it?”
This was the wilderness, and the sky was already dark. The car had malfunctioned at this moment, so probably…
“I’m afraid I can’t fix it, Third Miss.” The driver turned around and looked at her with a strange gaze that revealed his ill intentions.
Ye Ningxuan frowned slightly, and her clear gaze deepened.
As expected, the driver unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned towards her. His eyes gradually filled with lust…
“Do you know why the Ye family sent me away 13 years ago?” Ye Ningxuan asked with a cold voice.
The driver revealed a ferocious smile and said, “I don’t know, but Third Miss, I had no choice.”
Ye Ningxuan’s eyes gradually turned cold as she slowly removed her veil…
*****
The Ye family gathered and invited Mrs. Lin and Young Master Lin over.
Mrs. Lin asked in shock when she saw the veiled girl standing in the middle of the living room, “This is Ningwan?”
Old Master Ye sat at the head of the table and said with an ugly expression, “It’s her.”
“The wedding is tomorrow. Why did you invite us here today?” Mrs. Lin asked in confusion.
“Auntie, you might not know this, but Third Sister was supposed to reach home last night. She only entered the house this morning. It’s because…” The second daughter of the Ye family, Ye Xuan, stood up with an indescribable expression. “Let the driver speak!” As she spoke, she secretly shot a look at the driver beside Ye Ningxie.
The driver immediately said in a loud voice, “Mrs. Lin, my car broke down last night and we spent the night in the wilderness. We were alone and I couldn’t hold back… We did something we shouldn’t have done. I’m willing to be responsible for Third Miss.”
“What? Mother, I want to break off the engagement!” Young Master Lin Yuyang’s face flushed red with anger. “I will never marry such a woman!”
Mrs. Lin’s expression changed drastically as well, and she immediately looked at Ye Ningxie.
Ye Ningxuan stood upright. Her figure was graceful and delicate. Although her face couldn’t be seen clearly through the veil, just her beautiful eyes that were revealed were extremely similar to those of her deceased mother.
Her mother was once the number one beauty in Jiang City.
“Ningwan, is what he said… true?” Mrs. Lin’s heart ached.
Ye Ningxie said in a low voice, “I don’t need him to be responsible.”
This was equivalent to admitting it.
Mrs. Lin closed her eyes in anguish.
Although she wanted to fulfill her oath to her late best friend and she didn’t despise the scar on Ye Ningxie’s face, she couldn’t force her son to marry an unchaste wife.
However, tomorrow was the wedding. Everyone knew about the Ye and Lin families’ wedding. If they suddenly canceled it, how would they explain it to everyone?
Old Master Ye seemed to have seen through her worry and suggested in a low voice, “In order not to let the Ye and Lin families lose face, let Xuan’er marry in place of Ningwan. What do you think, Madam Lin?”
Mrs. Lin frowned unhappily. Before she could reply, her son, Lin Yuyang, agreed repeatedly. “This can’t be any better. Xuan’er and I are childhood sweethearts. We’re more suitable.”
“I’m afraid it’s not appropriate!” Mrs. Lin stopped her son. “I heard that Second Miss Ye has already promised to marry into the Zhan family. Our family can’t afford to offend the Zhan family.”
However, Old Master Ye waved his hand. “It’s not impossible to resolve this matter. Back then, the Zhan family proposed marriage and only said that their son would marry the Lin family’s daughter, but they didn’t name which one. Since Ningwan doesn’t need Little Chen to be responsible, why don’t you exchange with Xuan’er and marry into the Zhan family?”
“Old Master Ye, is Zhan Hanjue…”
“Our family can’t afford the humiliation of her losing her virginity before marriage.” Old Master Ye interrupted Mrs. Lin and said, “Other than the Zhan family, who else is willing to marry such a woman?”
