Hot air slowly came from her back, and his hot breath was soaked in her ears. "You are a virgin?"
The strange breath lingered in her ears, making her shiver, but she did not dare to say anything.
Stacy Morgan felt that the man paused for a moment, and then he said again, "It's not late for you to regret now."
She clenched her fists nervously and shook her head. "I don't regret..."
She was 18 years old, just in her prime time, but...
"It hurts!"
The tearing pain made her tremble in the man's arms.
Stacy bit his lip without saying a word to keep that last dignity. In addition to the fear from losing her virginity, she was also terrified by the man. She could clearly feel his strong physique and amazing strength.
It seemed that he would not be tired. He took every inch of her skin. This was a painfully long night for her...
Finally, in the middle of the night, the man got up and went to the bathroom. Stacy dragged her tired body up, put on her clothes, and went out of the room.
The downstairs of the hotel stood a middle-aged woman who had introduced her with this business. When she saw Stacy coming out, she handed her a black bag and said, "This is your reward."
Stacy took it without hesitation. Holding the money, she rushed out quickly even ignoring the pain in her private parts. She just wanted to go to the hospital as soon as possible.
The sky was still dark, so there is no one in the corridor. Two people on the stretchers in front of the operating room were not sent in because they didn't pay.
Stacy looked at them with great pain and sobbed, "I have money now. Please save my mother and brother..." She sobbed and handed the money to the doctor. The doctor took a look at it and asked the nurse to check the number, then he let the medical staff send the injured to the operating room.
Seeing they didn't push her brother in, Stacy rushed up to grab the doctor, and pleaded, "And my brother, please save him..."
The doctor sighed and said, "Sorry, your brother is dead..."
"He is dead?!"
This shocking news hit Stacy hardly, which made her world crumble...
It hurt like someone was stirring her chest with a knife. The pain broke her down on the ground. Eight years ago, when she was ten years old, her father cheated on and abandoned her mother. He sent her pregnant mother and her to a foreign country that they were not familiar with.
Later, her younger brother was born. He was diagnosed with autism when he was three years old. This made their impoverished life even worse. She and her mother did plenty of part-time jobs to barely make a living. However, a car accident put her in a desperate situation now since she had no relatives and no money in this foreign country.
She had no choice but to prostitute herself but still failed to save her brother.
This was a kind of pain that made people not hysterical but uncomfortable. It was hard for her to breathe and her world was in darkness. But she must accept it with a smile because her mother was still alive.
Mom needed her.
After the treatment, her mother was getting better. But when she knew her son was dead, her world collapsed.
Stacy hugged her and cried, "Mom, you still have me, and live well for me."
On this month in the hospital, Janet Johnson often sat at the bedside in a daze. Stacy knew that she was missing her son. If it weren't for her, her mother would have gone with her brother. She had been expelled from the school because she had to take care of her mother, but her mother was getting better.
She took the food to the hospital and went to the ward. When she was about to open the door, she heard the voice inside-
She was familiar with the voice. Even if it had been eight years, she still remembered clearly how he forced her mother to divorce him.
He had never visited them after sending them here. What did he want that he suddenly appeared today?
"Janet, you and Mrs.Louise were like Bernard and Doris, and you betrothed your children. Technically, you are supposed to let your daughter marry her son since it was your promise..."
"What do you mean Ethan Morgan?" Regardless of her injuries, Janet struggled to hit him. Was he still a human?
He had sent her daughter and her to this strange place where they were unfamiliar with. He had never cared about whether they were alive or dead. The only reason he came here today was to marry her daughter off?
"The eldest son of the Louise family is the son of your good friend. He is handsome. You know the background of the Louise family. If your daughter marries him, she will live a happy life..." After saying this, he lowered his voice.
The eldest son of the Louise family was noble and handsome. However, a month ago, he was bitten by a poisonous snake when he went abroad for business. He was numb and could not move or speak.
If she married him, she would live as a widow.
"I'll marry him."
Stacy suddenly opened the door holding the lunch box in her hand tightly. "I will marry him, but I have a condition."
Ethan looked at her daughter in a trance, who he had not seen for eight years. When she was sent here, she was still a ten-year-old child. Now she had grown up. Her skin was white, but she was too skinny. Her face was as small as a palm but it was dry and not fresh at all as if she had not grown well.
His younger daughter was much adorable than her.
He felt less grudged now. After all, she was not so pretty. Even if she married an impotent husband, she would not be too wronged.
Thinking of this, Ethan didn't feel there was something wrong. "What is your condition? Just tell me."
"I want to return to China and take back everything that belongs to mom. If you can do that, I will marry him." Stacy clenched her fists again and again and then slowly calmed down.
Although she was not in the country all year round, she had heard about the Louise family in City B when she was a child. The Louise Family had an extended family and hundreds of billions of wealth. The eldest son of the Louise family was surely honorable. Stacy did not expect that she could have such a good fortune. He might be ugly or physically injured.
But even so, it was a good chance for her to return to China. If she made good use of it, she may be able to take back her mother's dowry.
"Stacy..."Janet wanted to persuade her that marriage was not a joke.
Her daughter had suffered a lot and she didn't want her daughter to marry a stranger.
Upon hearing this, Ethan was worried that Stacy would be persuaded by Janet out of it. He quickly said, "Okay, as long as you are willing to marry him, I will let you return to China."
"How about my mother's dowry?" Looking at her father, Stacy said with an extremely cold voice.
When Janet married him, he did receive a lot of dowry, which worthy of a lot of money. Now Ethan felt very reluctant to give it back.
"Dad, my sister must be very pretty, and she deserve a better one. If she marries a physically injured man, her whole life will be over. What's more, you and my mother have already divorced. You should return the money she brought to the Morgan family."
Ethan felt guilty and did not dare to look at her.
How did she know that the eldest son of the Louise family was physically injured when she was in a foreign country?
Ethan didn't know that Stacy was just guessing.
Thinking that she was going to marry an abnormal man, Ethan gritted his teeth and said, "I'll give it to you after you marry him."
His youngest daughter was as pretty as a flower. How could he let her marry an impotent man?
"No matter how noble he is, if he cannot have sex, he is nothing but a wreck."
At the thought of this, Ethan felt less pity about it.
But he hated Stacy even more, because she only wanted to get some money from him.
Ethan looked at her coldly. "Your mother didn't teach you well. You have no manners at all!"
Stacy really wanted to say, "Didn't you have any responsibility as a father?" He just sent her here and never cared about her.
But she couldn't say it at this moment because she had nothing left and it did no good to her to irritate Ethan.
"Get ready and we will go back tomorrow." Ethan swung his sleeves and left the ward.
"Stacy, marriage is a big event in your life. I won't allow you to do this." Janet knew more or less Stacy's intention.
Stacy put the lunch box on the bedside cabinet, she took it out and said, "I am not married to an outsider, he is the son of your friend."
"My friend passed away very early and I don't know her son at all. Even if I have to break my promise, I want you to marry someone you like, instead of using marriage as a bargaining chip. If you do so, I would rather stay here for the rest of my life."
The person she liked?
Even if she met someone in the future, she didn't deserve it any more.
She lowered her head and thought, "It doesn't matter who I marry. The most important thing is to take back everything that has been taken away by others."
Janet didn't manage to convince Stacy to change his mind, they returned to China the next day.
Ethan disliked them and didn't allow them to enter the house of the Morgan family. Instead, he asked them to rent houses outside. Stacy could not go back before the wedding day.
Stacy didn't want to go back, either. If they went back, her mother would meet the mistress who had ruined her marriage. It would be better to stay here.
It was quiet.
Janet was still worried, "Stacy, if this is a good marriage, he will not choose you, even if I once had a friendship with Mrs. Zong."
Stacy didn't want to talk about this with her mother, so she changed the topic, "Mom, you should eat something now."
Janet sighed. Obviously, Stacy didn't want to talk about this. She suffered a lot because of her, and now she even had to sacrifice herself in the marriage.
Stacy was holding a pair of chopsticks in her hand, but she didn't have any appetite and felt sick.
"Are you not feeling well?" Janet asked with concern.
Stacy didn't want her to worry, so she lied that she had no appetite because of airsickness.
She put down her chopsticks and went into the house.
She closed the door and leaned against it. Although she did not get pregnant before, she had seen what Janet looked like when she was pregnant. She just felt sick and didn't want to eat.
And this was how she felt now.
It had been more than a month since that night, and her period was late more than 10 days.
She didn't dare to think further. That night was very humiliating. She wouldn't prostitute herself if it were for her mother and brother.
She trembled...
"You've been pregnant for six weeks."
After leaving the hospital, Stacy still thought of the doctor's words, "You're pregnant."
Stacy came to the hospital to have a test without telling Janet, and that was the result. She was in a bad mood and did not know what to do. Should she give birth to the baby, or abort it?
She couldn't help holding her abdomen with her hands. Although she was surprised and even insulted, she actually felt a little reluctant.
She felt the joy and expectation of being a mother at the first time.
She was at lost.
After returning home, Stacy packed up the B-mode ultrasound and opened the door.
However, when she saw Ethan was also there, she put on a grave expression.
"What is he doing here?"
Ethan also looked very displeased. It seemed that he had waited for a long time. He said coldly, "Go and change your clothes."
Stacy frowned. "Why?"
"Now that you are going to marry into the Louise family, you will meet the eldest son of the Louise family." Ethan looked at her. "Are you going to see him like that? You will embarrass me."
"What does it feel like to be painful?"
She thought that it was painful enough when she prostituted herself and her brother was dead.
However, when she heard Ethan's ruthless words, it still hurt.
He sent her mother and her to a poor country in the west, and he had never cared about her since then.
How could she get the money?
If she had money, how could her brother die of delay in treatment?
Her hands clenched into fists.
Ethan seemed to think of this too and looked a little embarrassed. "Let's go. The Louise family is arriving. We can't let them wait."
"Stacy..." Janet was worried and she still wanted to persuade Stacy out of it. She had lost her son, and now she wanted to take care of her daughter. Money was not important anymore.
She didn't want her daughter to be one of the Morgan family or the Louise family.
The rich and powerful families were complicated, and they still didn't know what kind of man the eldest son of the Louise family was.
She was worried.
"Mom." Stacy look at her comfortingly to reassure her.
"Hurry up." Ethan urged impatiently. He was afraid that Stacy might change her mind, so he even pushed her.
Ethan didn't like her, and Stacy didn't have any feelings for her father.
In the past eight years, the blood relationship between them had disappeared.
Stacy's clothes were too shabby, and she was going to meet the Louise family. Ethan took her to a high-end women's boutique and bought her a decent dress.
As soon as they entered the store, a waiter came over to receive them. Ethan pushed Stacy forward and said, "Give me something that she can wear."
Janet looked her up and down and probably knew her size. "Follow me."
Janet took a light blue dress and handed it to her. "Try this in the fitting room."
Stacy took it and walked to the fitting room.
"Harry, do you have to marry a woman from the Morgan family?" The woman's voice sounded a little aggrieved.
Stacy suddenly heard a voice and she looked at the room next to her. Through the crack of the door, Stacy saw a woman holding a man's neck and playing the coquetry. "Don't marry that woman, okay?"
Looking at the woman, Harry seemed to be somewhat helpless. This was the marriage that his mother had arranged for him. He could not break the promise.
But at the thought of that night, he couldn't bear to let her down. "Does it hurt that night?"
More than a month ago, he went abroad to a poor country to investigate a project. But he was bitten by a lewd snake. The snake venom was very strong. If he did not vent it on women, he would die of heat.
It was Rachel White who had cured him.
He knew that he could not control himself at that time.
It was said that women were very painful in their first sex, and he didn't pity her at that time. He could imagine how painful she was.
But she was so forbearing that she didn't make a sound. She just trembled in his arms.
Rachel liked him. He had always known that, but he had never given her a chance.
The first reason was that he did not love her, and secondly, his mother had made an engagement for him.
But she was always there for him. After that time, he felt that he should marry her.
Until now, he still remembered the blood and how bright it was.
Rachel leaned slightly on his chest, lowered her eyes, and said coyly, "Hmm."
She liked Harry and had been with him as a secretary for all these years. But she was no longer a virgin. She could not let Harry know about this because she knew how much a man cared about the purity of a woman. So she spent some money asking town residents to find a virgin and sent her to that room.
After the girl left, she went in and created an illusion that she was the girl that night.
"If you like the clothes here, you can buy more." Harry rubbed her hair and said dotingly.
"That one only serves to VIP. You can't go in. You can go to the right one." Janet reminded Stacy.
In this kind of high-end clothing store, the fitting room was full of separate rooms, while the VIP room was even more fancy. In the VIP fitting room, the inner room could be used to change clothes, and the outer room was for friends to wait or rest.
"Oh." Stacy took the clothes and walked to the right room.
When Stacy were changing clothes in the fitting room, she was still thinking about the man and the woman. In their conversation, it seemed that they had talked about the Morgan family.
Was that man...
After changing her clothes, Stacy came out of the fitting room and looked to the left room. The door had been closed.
"It fits you very well."
Janet had a good taste. Basically, she could pick out the suitable clothes for someone right away. Stacy put on the light blue dress, which made her skin look more white. The lace on her waist outlined her slender waist. She was skinny, but her cheeks were very delicate.
Ethan thought it was suitable, so he went to pay. He then found out that the dress was more than 30,000 yuan. But considering she was going to meet the Louise family, he gritted his teeth and paid the money. He said in a cold voice, "Let's go."
Stacy had already known he was heartless, but she still felt depressed and painful for his coldness.
She lowered her head and followed him into the car.
Soon the car stopped in front of the gate of the Morgan family.
The driver opened the door for Ethan. He bent down and walked out of the car, and Stacy followed him.
Standing at the door of the villa, she was in a trance for a few seconds. Because of her younger brother's illness, she and her mother lived a terrible life while her father and his mistress were happily living in this magnificent villa.
She couldn't help but clench her hands.
"Why are you still standing there?" Ethan felt that Stacy was not following him. When he looked back, he saw her standing at the door in a daze.
Stacy hurried to follow him. When Ethan heard the servants said that the Louise family had not arrived yet, he asked her to wait in the living room.
There was a piano near the French window in the living room, which was produced in Germany and very expensive. Her mother bought it for her on her five-year-old birthday.
She liked it when she was young. She began to learn piano at the age of four and a half. After she was sent away, she had never played it again.
She couldn't help but reach out her hand, she was familiar and excited about it.
She put her index finger on the piano key and gently pressed it. With a clank, a melodious and crisp sound came from the piano. Because she had not played it for a long time, her fingers were quite stiff now.
"How dare you touching my stuff?" A clear voice with anger sounded behind her.
Her stuff?
Stacy turned around and saw Anna Morgan standing behind her in an aggressive manner. She remembered that she was one year younger than her, and she was seventeen years now. She had inherited Samantha Black's advantages and looked very pretty.
But the way she was staring at her now was a little ferocious.
"Yours?"
They ruined her mother's marriage and spent the money. Now even her mother's gift to her had fallen into her stepsister's hands?
She slowly clenched her fists and told herself over and over again that she should not be impulsive, because she had no ability to take back what belonged to her now.
She must tolerate it!
She was not the little girl anymore who was sent away by her father eight years ago and only knew nothing but crying. Now she had grown up!
"You... are Stacy?!" Anna came to her senses. The Louise family will pay a visit today. Her father had brought the mother and daughter back.
Anna still remembered that day when Ethan sent Stacy abroad, Stacy knelt on the ground and hugged Ethan's legs, begging him not to send her away.
"Aren't you very happy that Dad brought you back?" Anna crossed her arms around her chest and looked at her with disdain. "Don't be smug. You will marry into the Louise family. It's said that the man..."
As she spoke, Anna covered her mouth and laughed mockingly.
She couldn't help gloating at her when she remembered that Stacy was going to marry a disabled and impotent man.
Marriage was a big event in one's life. Wouldn't her life be ruined if she married a man like that?
Stacy frowned.
At this moment, a servant came over. "the Louise family is here."
Ethan came to door to welcome them.
Stacy turned around and saw the man who was pushed in by someone in a wheelchair. He had definite facial features and was very handsome. Even if he was sitting in a wheelchair, no one dared to underestimate him.
This man, wasn't the same people flirting with a woman in the fitting room?
He is the eldest son of the Louise family?!
But in the fitting room, she clearly saw that he could stand up and held the woman in his arms, and his legs were not injured at all.
"What's going on?"
Before she could figure out why this man was pretending to be lame, Ethan shouted at her, "Come here, Stacy. This is the eldest son of the Louise family."
Ethan shrugged his shoulders and bowed with a flattering smile. "Master Louise, this is Stacy."
Ethan felt sorry that the eldest son of the Louise family was crippled.
Harry Louise's eyes fell on Stacy. He frowned when he saw that Stacy was young, skinny, and somewhat malnourished.
This was the marriage arranged by his mother. Plus her mother passed away. As a son, he couldn't violate the agreement. Therefore, after he was bitten by a viper accidentally outside the country, he released the news that he was not cured and was disabled and impotent. He just wanted the Morgan family to go back on their words.
He didn't expect that the Morgan family didn't pull it back.
Harry was silent and his face grew gloomy. Ethan thought that he was not satisfied, so he quickly explained, "She is still young. She is just 18 years old now and will grow up to be a beauty."
Harry sneered in his heart. He didn't see any beauty, but he felt that something was wrong. Ethan wanted to marry her daughter to him regardless of him being a lame man.
His eyes were cold, and he lifted the corner of his mouth meaningfully. "I went abroad to handle some affairs and accidentally got injured. I'm afraid that I can't walk, and I can't fulfill the duty as a husband..."
"I don't mind," Stacy answered immediately.
Ethan promised her that as long as she married into the Louise family, he would return her mother's dowry. She would still say yes now even if she may join the family on the first day and get a divorce the next day.
At this time, Stacy understood everything. He could have stood up, but he came to the Morgan family and sat in a wheelchair. It was because of that woman. He didn't want to fulfill the agreement and wanted the Morgan family to tear up it.
But he didn't expect that Ethan was willing to sacrifice her unfavored daughter and come to fulfill the agreement.
Harry squinted at her.
Stacy felt chill and bitter as he looked at her. She was unwilling to marry into the Louise family.
If she didn't agree, how could she return to China? How could she take back what she had lost?
She raised the corner of her mouth and smiled. Only she knew how bitter it was. "We have been engaged since childhood. I should marry you whatever you do."
Harry's eye turned colder and he thought that this woman was eloquent.
Ethan didn't realize that something was wrong. He tentatively asked, "This wedding-"
Harry had a mixed feelings and finally calmed down. "Of course, the agreement was made by the two families a long time ago. How can we break it?"
Stacy lowered his eyes and hid her thoughts. She did not dare to look at him. Obviously, he was not satisfied with the marriage.
If he agreed now, it was only because of the promise.
"That was nice." Ethan was happy in his heart. It was definitely a good thing to become in-laws with the Louise family at the expense of an unpopular daughter.
Although the Morgan family was also rich, when compared with the Louise family, they were nothing. No, to be exact, when compared with the Louise family, the two families were like sharks and shrimps.
They couldn't be mentioned in the same breath!
Ethan bent over and said in a low voice, "I've already asked them to prepare dinner. You can have dinner here before leaving."
Harry frowned. It was disgusting of Ethan to be so obsequious.
"No, thanks. I have something else to do." Harry refused and Jack Glenn pushed him out. When he passed by Stacy, Harry raised his hand to tell Jack to stop. He looked up and asked, "Miss Morgan, are you free?"
