Wrong Marriage: The CEO's Sweet Bride

The minister beside him, Benson, also frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "This Patience has become more and more arrogant since he got together with the Ston family! He even dared to mention Queen Elizabeth in front of you."

"do not talk!"

King George glanced at him coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "Patience shouldn't have known about that, that person must have told him! The last time Xin You's men broke into Lusen Castle, he was probably the one who played tricks !"

Benson nodded in agreement, but felt very helpless.

Even if they knew this, so what, they still didn't dare to touch the Ston family.

At this moment, King George suddenly asked, "Has General Xin arrived?"

Benson hurriedly turned around, "Here we are, waiting for you in the study."

"Okay, I'll go meet him and see if he has come all the way and wants to tell me something urgent."

King George said, got up and went to the study.

……

There are only four days left until the wedding of the Stone and Bard family.

The items needed for the wedding were delivered to the bride-to-be Carmeline's room one after another.

A gorgeously designed wedding dress embellished with diamonds was brought in by two maids.

"Miss Carmeline, this is your wedding dress, please try it on. If there is something inappropriate, please correct it in time."

"No need to put it there."

"But, this is what His Excellency the Duke meant."

"..." The girl curled her fingertips slightly, "Okay, take it here."

The girl's slender and beautiful body was wrapped in a grand and white wedding dress, and the maid complimented flatteringly, "Miss Carmeline, you are so beautiful."

The girl didn't speak, and stood in front of the mirror, silently looking at herself inside.

For a moment, she fantasized that one day she would be able to wear a wedding dress and hold that person's arm, and walk into the wedding hall with him.

But she is the adopted daughter of the Duke of Ston, and they were impossible from the beginning.

Her thoughts drifted away—

I don't know what's going on with that person now. After he wakes up, he must hate himself to death, right?

Facing the mirror, the girl showed a slightly bitter smile.

"Carmeline, you don't seem to be very happy with this marriage."

The old and sharp voice of the Duke of Ston suddenly sounded at the door.

The girl suddenly shuddered and looked at the old man who pushed the door open at some point.

She quickly squeezed out a smile, "How could it be? Father, I just thought that you have been so kind to me and prepared so many things for my wedding. After I marry into the Bard family, I will leave you , I am a little bit sad."

"Really?" Duke Ston's blue eyes were secretive, and he waved his hand to signal the maids to go out.

Then he strode into the house and walked towards the girl.

As he approached, the girl felt an inexplicable sense of urgency, and her heart tensed up subconsciously.

The Duke of Ston stopped in front of the girl. Although he was nearly eighty years old, he had tall bones, and his well-maintained body was much taller than ordinary old people.

He looked at the girl condescendingly, no one could see what he was thinking.

The girl could only pretend to be relaxed to meet his gaze.

After a few seconds of silence, Duke Ston finally spoke, "The preparations for the wedding these days seem to have exhausted you, and you've lost a lot of weight."

The girl breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, "Father, I..."

Just opened his mouth, but was interrupted.

"Since you're tired, why don't you just take a good rest in your room and sneak into my secret room?" Duke Ston's voice was sharp and severe.

The girl's heart sank, "Father, what secret room are you talking about? I don't have one."

"I still said no, I saw it with my own eyes!" At this time, another soft voice suddenly sounded.

"Chris?!"

The girl frowned when she saw the person who walked in swaggeringly.

Chris said proudly: "Last night I saw a figure sneaking around near Father's study, and I thought it looked like you at first sight. Then you disappeared suddenly. I wanted to make sure, so I squatted there , I didn't expect to see you coming out of father's study!"

The girl didn't expect that the traces of last night would be revealed. Was she acting in a hurry?

She said calmly, "Father, I was in the room last night. Chris usually likes to find fault on purpose. She is framing me!"

"Carmeline, I'm so disappointed in you."

Duke Ston shook his head, and suddenly took out a red potion in his hand, "This was found from your room, how do you explain it?"

The girl looked at the things in his hand, and her heart skipped a beat.

When had he searched himself?

The girl looked down, and suddenly saw the wedding supplies piled up in the room.

Could it be when those servants brought things...

The girl's heart completely cooled down.

Looking at the Duke of Ston in front of her, a look of determination flashed in her eyes.

"Father, this..."

As she spoke, she shot suddenly and hit the old man's head directly.

But the fist was blocked in the air.

Chris grabbed her hand and shouted at a high volume: "Camelin, you are so brave, you dare to do something to your father!"

The girl snapped, "He's a devil! You don't know anything, uh—"

A sudden pain in the neck.

She turned her head, and the red injection in Duke Ston's hand pierced her neck.

Duke Ston looked at her coldly, "Since you don't want to marry Bud Joblin, I won't force you. I will arrange another good place for you."

A strong sense of dizziness hit her mind, the girl's eyes went dark, and she fell to the ground.

……

Under Xin Sheng's persuasion, King George finally changed his mind and agreed to support the alliance to send troops to wipe out the X auction house.

In fact, Xin Sheng didn't try to persuade him much, but just told him that the Duke of Ston was the boss behind the X Auction House.

The Duke of Ston is a serious concern for King George. He didn't dare to deal with the X Auction House before, because he was worried that after sending troops, the Duke of Ston would take the opportunity to make troubles in the country.

But now, the annihilation of the X Auction House is dealing with the Duke of Ston, and he also has the help of the Alliance Army. He is not stupid, and he naturally knows what is best for him.

In addition to persuading him, Xin Sheng also explained to him the crisis at the base of the medical competition.

King George gritted his teeth tightly, "The competition base was invested and built by the Ston family. At that time, I thought he had worked so hard to win this project just for money. Unexpectedly, there was another conspiracy..."

"Now the safety of everyone in the base is under their control, and they can't rush out. I have a way."

Seeing King George's nervous look, Xin Sheng suggested: "My daughter Qin Shu is missing and her whereabouts are still unknown. Please allow me to lead my troops into the base to search for clues about my daughter's disappearance."
