At D City
One of the richest family, Shen family, had a wedding ceremony happening. The villa was bedecked extravagantly. Outside, cars worth tens of millions of dollars were lined up. A large number of guests walked in the beautiful hallway. Even celebrities were present to witness the ceremony.
In the resplendent hall, flowers were in full bloom. Handsome and rich men walked hand in hand with socialite divas, who were slim and charming. Beautiful blond-haired women with mesmerizing blue eyes were dancing on the floor in the most graceful manner. Through the musician's flexible hands, the cello came alive, entertaining the audience with its melodious music. The atmosphere here reeked of richness.
Coming out of the dressing room, Reese Lin noticed the gleam in her father's eyes as he saw her.
Her beauty was such it surpassed all the decoration of the house. Even the most beautiful fireworks couldn't compete with her.
Tonight was Reese Lin's wedding. As the bride to be, she should have been the happiest person. However, she wasn't overjoyed like the guests present there. On seeing the scene of music and dancing, her mood became sour. She was overwhelmed with everything that was happening around her.
"Reese! You are very beautiful today. If only your mother could see you today! She would have been the happiest!" Albert Lin said as he shed tears of joy seeing his daughter.
Listening to Albert Lin mention her deceased mother, Reese Lin's eyes dimmed. The Lin Group was founded by her parents. However, due to her father's inappropriate management, it was at stake now. In order to protect her mother's painstaking efforts, she was compelled to marry into the Shen family.
One might wonder how she managed to marry into such a rich family. After all, a rich family like Shen family was bound to have many options. Every girl in D City would be dying to marry him. How did Reese Lin get so lucky?
The truth was, Jacob Shen, the eldest son of the Shen family's head, had become blind at a very young age. Even the best doctors were of the belief he would never recover. This was the only reason why Reese Lin got the opportunity to marry him.
After tonight, she would officially become Jacob Shen's wife. Deep in her heart, she didn't want to marry him as she was in love with someone else. But for the sake of Lin Group and her mother, she had to sacrifice herself.
She tried to feign a smile but the thought of marrying him didn't make her even a little happy. Knowing fully well her father would say something about it, she smiled apologetically at him and said in a low voice, "Well, Dad, I want to go to the washroom."
Albert Lin seemed to have seen through Reese Lin's mind, and the smile on his face disappeared. Raising his hand, he patted on her shoulder. "There's only half an hour left before the ceremony starts. Don't be late," he said as his piercing gaze bore into her eyes.
Nodding her head, she disappeared into the washroom.
Once inside, she took a deep breath. She stood there for a while and gazed at her reflection in the mirror. It was a pity she wasn't happy on the most important day of her life. 'I need to leave or else people will get suspicious, ' she thought to herself and made her way outside. She feigned a smile, pretending to look happy.
When she came out, she noticed her father was gone.
Reese Lin looked into the depths of the corridor. It was empty and the lights were dim. In spite of this, she could vaguely see a man's figure. He was wearing a well-tailored suit. He had a good physique with wide shoulders and a narrow waist. His slender hand held a Zippo lighter. As he pressed the button, the fire slowly rose.
"Who is that?" Reese Lin asked nervously and looked around, only to discover that everyone else was downstairs, preparing for the wedding ceremony. There was not a single person to help her here.
"Relax." The man seemed to have understood that Reese Lin was starting to get scared. He sneered and put away the lighter. With his left hand in his trouser pocket, he trudged towards her.
Now that he was close, she would clearly see his face. His features were like an elaborately carved work of art, perfect beyond comprehension. His face twisted and an arrogant expression appeared. But the thing was, it did nothing to lessen his beauty.
Even this impolite expression looked great on his perfect face. If anything, it added a tinge of mystery to him.
"How could it be you?" Reese Lin whispered, staring at the face she loved so dearly. 'How could it be him?' she wondered, unable to believe her eyes.
Clenching the hemline of her dress, Reese Lin took a step back, hoping Trevor Shen couldn't see the wedding dress she was wearing.
Instead of being dissuaded, he continued to walk forward. With his strong hands, he pushed her against the wall, catching her off-guard.
She wanted to scream, but predicting her response, he placed his hand against her mouth. Reese Lin widened his eyes in disbelief. She had never thought something like this would happen today.
He let go of his hand from her mouth. Seizing the opportunity, Reese Lin opened her mouth to call for help.
Before she could do that, he placed a deep kiss on her mouth. He tasted every bit of mouth before he stopped. Once again, his hands held her tightly, not allowing her to move an inch. Reese Lin gasped, unable to understand what had just happened. He seemed thirsty, wanting to kiss her more. She couldn't let that happen.
"Let me go!" she screamed, not giving him another chance to molest her mouth.
She was Jacob Shen's bride. It didn't matter that Trevor Shen, the only guy she had a crush on, was standing in front of her. She couldn't do anything that would hurt Jacob Shen! Moreover, they were so many reporters present tonight. This would bring nothing but humiliation to her family and his. If she got caught, her mother's hard work could go in vain. 'No, I can't let this happen, ' she thought, regaining her wits.
Reese Lin tried to push him away. But he didn't even budge! After all, he was much stronger than her. Her resolution to escape brought a fierce look to his face. He tightened his grip on her body.
