Chapter 1 Octavia Grimm

Nine o clock in the evening

Inside the Grimm family mansion

Everyone was in a festive mood because today was the day the daughter of the Grimm family, Octavia Grimm was finally getting married to her beloved fiancé, Dean Ambrose.

..........

In one of the rooms of the Grimm family, a girl could be seen sitting in front of an extra large mirror, the girl had light blond hair and blue eyes, she was like a masterpiece drawn by god on a canvas.

She was wearing a strapless wedding dress that enhanced her collarbone and made her look more eye catching.

The carefully tailored wedding dress hugged her slender figure tightly. And it's beautiful, full length ruffles made the eighteen year old, Octavia look more feminine.

In her country the legal age for marriage had always been eighteen, So after her eighteenth birthday, she decided to marry Dean. The man she had loved for several years

Although she had drunk a lot at her bridal shower last night, she still got up early to freshen up.

The day was breaking, and the sky was just turning bright outside as the sun was beginning to rise slowly from the east,

Miss Octavia, everything is ready, it's still early. Why don't you rest for a while? We will come back for your makeup in two hour's ,suggested the staff who was helping her dress up with a smile

Okay" Octavia looked at the dark circle under her eyes and nodded.

She still felt a little bit groggy because she drank too much last night. So she picked up the glass on the table and drank two mouthful of water.

When the staff left,a maid came in with a cup of coffee and put it on front of Octavia.

Octavia gulp down two mouthful of it. Maybe because she drank too much wine last night, the tip of her tongue was bitter. The coffee tasted a bit strange to her.

After finishing the coffee, she didn't drink anymore. She just sat down on the sofa and closed her eyes

A few minute later, the door of her room was gently pushed open, and someone came in quietly.

Octavia didn't fall asleep. She secretly half opened her eyes and glanced around. She found out that the person who came in was Selene, her half sister.

Octavia's step mother was the one who had broken her parent's marriage, so she despises her stepmother and Selene. She had never bothered to get along with them

So she wondered what Selene was doing in her room right now.

Selene took a quick glance at the empty cup on the table. Her mouth curved into a wicked smile as she lowered her head to look at Octavia. " Octavia do you really think you can marry dean ? I am the real daughter of the head of the Grimm family.

You will never know what is in the cup of coffee you just drink. But I will make sure that you enjoy your weeding night in advance.

She then took out her phone and dialed a number. " are the two bodyguards I have arranged especially for Octavia ready? Tell them to come here.

Octavia opened her eyes wide in shock upon hearing what Selene had said. She knew that Selene had never liked her. But she didn't expect that Selene was this vicious.

It seemed that Selene wanted to drug her and find someone to rape her. Such a vicious woman.

Octavia stood up and sneered. Selene heard some movement, so she turned around. Seeing Octavia standing in front of her, she took a few steps back. " you... you are not asleep.

"Selene, it must have been very hard for you to pretend to be a good daughter in the Grimm family for a long time. Do you feel comfortable now that you have finally taken off that hypocritical mask of yours? Octavia said with a hint of mockery in her cold eyes.

" I don't understand what you mean. " Selene face turned deadly paled. She was so scared to be exposed that her nails dug into her palms, and she didn't dare to stare into Octavia cold eyes.

Octavia grabbed Selene wrist, she was taller than Selene, so she blocked the way out of the room with her body not giving Selene any chance of escape.

Octavia used her other hand to pinch Selene chin, forcing her mouth open wide.

There was a rare coldness in Octavia lazy voice then she said, No matter what's in this soup it yours now, so drink it.

She then let go of Selene wrist and picked up the coffee and poured into Selene mouth.

Selene struggled desperately, shaking her head. But she couldn't break free from Octavia grip, so she had no choice but to let Octavia shove the coffee into her mouth indiscriminately.

I didn't... Octavia....Let go of me, Selene was choking and coughing nonstop.

With a pitiful look on her face. She shook her head vigorously.

The door suddenly opened and a handsome man strode in. Seeing the scene, he immediately grabbed Octavia wrist and pulled away from Selene.

He was utterly surprised. " Octavia what are you doing?

Dean, you are just in time. Selene put some drugs in the coffee. She has also asked some bodyguards to rape me. Thank god, I saw through her plan. Now I wan her to taste her coffee, Octavia reply calmly. A trace of contempt was visible in her beautiful eyes.

The gentle look on Dean face changed when he heard what Octavia said. " is it true"

Selene shook her head pitifully. " no it isn't , how can I do such a thing? Octavia I know that you don't like me, and I can tolerate that. But how can you frame me for such a thing? Mr Ambrose, I really didn't do it.

Looking at her pitiful face, Dean felt a little sorry for Selene. He turned to Octavia and said, Octavia, you already the precious daughter of the head of the Grimm family no one can take that position from you. Why do you have to do this to Selene.

Dean worlds sounded so harsh in Octavia ear, she felt so uneasy upon hearing him called her half sister by her name. When did they become so close

"Are you suspecting that I am deliberately framing her? She asked looking at Dean in

Disbelief.

It okay for you to be willful at times. But you have to know that there are things you can't just joke about, Dean said to Octavia. He then looked at Selene with pity in his eyes and added, Selene always puts up with you. But enough is enough

Octavia stared at Dean handsome face.

Seeing his self righteous face she felt so ridiculous.

She then asked in a sarcastic tone, you believed her instead of me?

Dean turned his face sideways, his fist clenching in his pocket. He didn't answer her question

What is going on here? Why are you guys fighting again? Noah Grimm , octavia father and his wife Sarah Grimm, rushed into the room together.

Selene immediately threw herself into Sarah arms and cried aggrievedly, mom I really didn't drug octavia. I also didn't find someone to rape her. How could I do such a thing.

The expression on Sarah face slightly changed "octavia, there may be some sort of misunderstanding? Sarah said anxiously

Selene cried bitterly. How could I do such a heartless thing and ruin your life? Doing such a thing will also ruin my own life. Do you I am not afraid of jail?

Sarah voice was filled with pain, she turned her head and said to Noah. Hubby I believed Selene will never do such a thing. But it seems we can't reconcile

Chapter 2 Shadows of deceit

Chapter two

Noah waved his big hand and ordered, call the family doctor over to check what's in the coffee.

He knew that his two daughter had never gotten along. Octavia that daughter if his first wife, was the spoiled one while Selene the daughter of his second wife, was more tolerant. only with solid evidence can they resolve this conflict.

The family doctor soon arrived with professional tools and began examine the cup.

Selene give me your phone, Noah added.

Octavia knocked it to the ground! I haven't touched it until now, Selene cried pitifully.

Noah picked up the the phone from the ground and opened the call log. It showed that a call had been made around ten minute ago, and the time matched what octavia Had claimed.

Octavia took a sideway glance at the call log. She wanted to see how Selene could deny it with this solid evidence.

Noah dialed the unknown number that the number had been made to. Soon. An automated voice said, press 1 for balance inquire. And press 2 for payment.

Octavia Pretty face frown. How could this be? Just now Selene had called someone right in front of her eyes and some bodyguard to come over and rape her, but she had snatched the phone away before Selene could finished her words. Therefore it was impossible for her call log to be tempered with.

However, the call log clearly proved that the last call had been made to the telecommunication company.

Everyone looked at octavia with suspicion and disappointment.

Selene cried bitterly, as if she had suffered a great grievance.

Octavia clenched her fist tightly. How could it be? Something didn't add up.

Fortunately the doctor could be trusted, so she turned to him and asked, doctor what did you find.

Miss there is nothing strange in coffee, the doctor reply softly.

But it tested strange when I ate it. And Selene admitted it that she had drugged it.... Back then, Selene had spoken in such a cold tone that the memory was clearly etched in octavia memory.

There really nothing strange in it madam the doctor emphasized again.

Octavia told you, I've never wanted to hurt

You. Selene still looked aggrieved, immediately gaining the sympathy from everyone who saw her.

Dean also looked at her gently and comfort her.

Compare to octavia, who was willful Selene looked pitiful.

Finally an idea flashed through octavia mind.

She suddenly understood everything! From the beginning, there had been no drug in the coffee, Selene had pretended to make that phone call. She had orchestrated the whole situation to trick octavia of accusing her, so that when the truth is revealed, octavia would be unable to defend herself, and would lose everyone's trust.

Turning around to look at her father, octavia explained anxiously, dad I know what going on. Selene did all this on purpose to .....

Before she could finish, Noah slapped her across her face.

Everyone was slightly shocked by the slap.

The atmosphere turned awkward and uncomfortable.

Selene, who was standing behind Noah,

Raised her chin and smiled triumphantly at octavia.

However octavia was not in the mood to look at Selene. She covered her burning cheek and looked at her father in disbelief.

Octavia looked at her father, who had always been nice to her and had never hurt her.

Noah face turned livid with anger. Octavia I know that you had always have a grudge against Selene. But I never expected that you'd come up with such a vicious plan to frame her and destroy her image in my heart. It all my fault. I'm the one who always coddled you and let you become this vicious.

He had lost all trust on octavia. Covering her burning cheek, octavia looked at Dean. Hoping that at least he would believe her.after all he is her groom.

Dean.... Before she could finish her words.

She was interrupted by Dean.

His gentle face was serious at the moment, and his mellow eyes had turned cold, he said in a heavy and indifferent tone. Octavia, you really disappointed me.

He looked at octavia ruthlessly, as if he was looking at a stranger. But when turned to Selene, his eyes were filled intense sympathy and pity.

Octavia was shocked by his words, although she was angry. She couldn't help but find the situation ridiculous, she suddenly laughed out loud. How had she become the target of public criticism today on her wedding day.

She had never care much about Sarah and Selene before. In her eyes, Sarah was a home wrecker, so naturally she had hated the mother and daughter and everyone know it.

Nevertheless she had always it was beneath her to set them up.

But today, these two women had not only set her up, but they had also gain sympathy from Noah and Dean.

She didn't care about the scheming mind of both the mother and the daughter, but what broke her heart the most was the mistrust of her father and fiancé.

From the beginning, they had let their feelings cloud their judgement. They had labeled her as the troublemaker in their heart. They wanted evidence just to help them confirm their doubts.

Octavia had always thought that she was the real daughter of the head of the Grimm family, and that one day she would become part of the Ambrose family as Dean wife,But now she realized how ridiculous it all was.

No one believed or care about her at all.

Octavia finally stop laughing, Dean you disappointed me, she said plainly with a snort.

She picked up the scissors on the table and cut the helm of her wedding dress. Then suddenly tore up the dress and threw it on the table.

Dean face turn livid in anger," what are you during octavia.

This is exactly what you want isn't it? Octavia clear blue eyes were don and watery she replied indifferently and looked away.

She walked back to her room with heavy steps. Then took her suitcase and went downstairs.

Sir miss octavia wants to leave home......a maid rushed over to Noah and reported the news.

Don't mind her" Noah was really angry. He thought he should teach his daughter a lesson!

However Dean eyes turned anxious. Just when he turned to chase after octavia. Selene let out a moan and fainted.

What wrong with you Selene, don't scare me, Sarah cried out loud.

Dean stopped and hurried back to Selene.

Noah also took Selene into his arms anxiously.

Octavia turned back as she reached the door. After seeing what her father and Dean were doing, she walked out of the Grimm family mansion without hesitation.

With all her luggage she drove straight to the civil affairs bureau.

Chapter 3 Lucian ford

Chapter three

Today was may seven. In this country this date represented love, so many couples chose to register their marriage on this day.

Octavia had been worried that the civil affairs bureau would be crowded today. She was afraid that she couldn't register for marriage today, she had asked a servant to take the ID cards and every other type of document that was needed to the civil affairs bureau before it opened. This way she and Dean could get their marriage licensed as soon as possible.

But now that she wanted to leave home, she had to go there and get her ID card back first.

Octavia began to feel a little uncomfortable on her way to the civil affair bureau, as if her body was on fire. This feeling was a little alien to her.

It suddenly occur to her that she must have been drugged by Selene after all!!

What was more. The effect of the drug seems very powerful.

If Selene hadn't put the drug in the coffee, then she must have put it somewhere else. Octavia had washed up in the morning. And she had also drunk some water. Therefore, there is a lot of opportunities for Selene to drug her.

But even if the medicine took effect now, it will be useless to seek justice for herself.

She knew that both her father and Dean, would think that it was just another trick to protect herself.

She had never realized that Selene could be this calculating, that she would set a trap for her this way.

After all octavia is a kind and righteous person, so she was no match for someone as cunning as Selene.

By the time she arrived at the civil affairs bureau, she felt weak all over. Her small face was flushed with a deep pink color, she was covered with a layer of cold sweat on her forehead, she slightly blinked revealing her watery eyes.

After finding the servant of her Grimm family. She finally got her ID back.

"Miss octavia, this is mr Dean ID card.

Octavia gave him a small smile and said. You can return it to him yourself.

Just the thought about Dean send chills down her spine. So she was very reluctant to touch his things.

The strange feeling in her body slowly became more and more overbearing. It seemed that Selene had been determine your make her lose her virginity today.

But to octavia it was not a big deal. Today,

She had lost everything. She had lost her father as well as her fiancé and her home. Now she had nothing left to lose

Since she was doomed to lose her virginity, she decided to at least find a man she liked to do the job.

She looked around the civil affairs bureau. At this moment, a man suddenly walked into the door. He was dressed in a well tailored suit that enhanced his tall and straight figure. It was as if a light shine upon him. Making him impeccable.

The man's presence lit up her bleak world in the blink of an eye,

He was followed by another man, who leaned in and said in a low voice, mr Lucian, she didn't come.

" then you can tell her that she doesn't need to come here anymore, " Lucian said calmly. But his words gave a kind of distinctive temperament.

After saying this, he turned around to leave, but octavia had stood in front of him.

As soon as she had heard that this man's bride hadn't shown up, she had decided that he was the chosen one.

Being stopped by an unfamiliar woman in front of him, Lucian lowered his eyes to look at her face. The woman face was as red as an apple and her long black eyelashes were fluttering. She was enchanting and lovely. He looked at her with a frown, as if he was thinking about something.

Sir it seems your bride didn't show up, in that case. I have a little favour to ask of you. The woman said shyly her young voice was filled energy.

A little favour ? Do you know who I am? LUCIAN ask as he looked at her upturned face.

Of course I do you are Vivian's driver. I've met you twice when you picked her up, octavia said with a charming face.

Just now she had overheard about the part about his bride not showing up, but she hadn't overheard his title, Mr ford

Driver? Did he look like a driver? With brows furrowed, the handsome Lucian lowered his eyes and looked at the young smiling face.

Octavia chuckled slowly and said, but based on your appearance, you should be the CEO. It's really a waste that you're only a driver.

Lucian raised his eyebrows, and the corner of his mouth curved into a faint smile. A hint of interest flashed across his eyes.

"Why me?" It was so rare for Lucian to have such patience.

" because.... You.... You the most pleasing to the eyes here. "Octavia staggered. It was as if she was a about to faint.

Lucian eyes narrowed. The young woman seemed drunk but he couldn't smell alcohol on her body, obviously someone had done something to her.

But I must admit she have good taste in Man.

So can I? The effect of the drug on Octavia body had reached its peak. All she wanted right now was to sleep with this man in front of her. But even if he was only a driver, she still had to make him agree in a respectful manner.

" okay I agree" Lucian took his ID card and the signed marriage applications form from her hand. He then handed them over to the assistant behind him.

The assistant was stunned for a moment before taking them.

After five minutes, two copies of marriage licensed were delivered to Lucian.

He took them and picked Octavia up and carried her.

Let's go home" Lucian said to the driver. He then pulled the partition between the front seat and the back seat. Octavia, who was sitting in his arms, looked really bad so he had to something immediately.

With the marriage licensees in his hand, a hint of interest flashed through his eyes, he seemed to like what had happened just now.

Two hours later, octavia was still deep asleep in Lucian's arms.

Although this desire hadn't been satisfied yet, he didn't force it anymore.

Now that they had gotten licenses, they had a lot of time to do this again.

It had been two hours, but Lucian noticed that they haven't reached the ford family mansion yet.

He lifted up the partition and asked the driver "what the matter"

"Mr ford" there's seems to be a road accident ahead, and the road is blocked. We can't get through, there are too many cars behind us as well, so we can't move back, reported the driver.

Lucian lowered the partition again and looked down at Octavia in his arms, her eyes were closed, and there were tears in the corner of her eyes, she was crying just now. Such a young woman!

He checked her ID card, she was only eighteen years old. It meant that she had just turned into an adult and reached the marriageable age of D country, No wonder although she looked so stubborn and pretended to be familiar with love affairs , she still shed tears in the process.

While Lucian was sizing up Octavia little face with great interest, his phone suddenly rang. He had a phone call, and it obviously disturbed her sleep because her body moved.

He gently put her down, he was afraid of waking her up, then he got out of the car and answered his phone.

At the moment, the overpass was packed since they were stuck, many people got out of their cars to smoke and chat. So Lucian move wasn't obstructive.

Octavia was awakened, when he got out of the car.

She looked around, wondering where she could be. Then sat up, rubbed her eyes, and recalled everything that happened in a daze.

In the civil affirms Bureau, she had stopped Lucian, the driver of Vivian, who she had only met twice before, and had asked him to have sex with her.

Was it over ?

She softly hissed, when she felt the pain on her lower limb. It really was not a good experience
