A wedding night Love Affair With The Billionaire novel Chapter 24

There were bloodstains on the ground of the woods, and the faint smell of blood could be detected in the air. How could anyone who dared to touch his woman still be alive? Eliza was a pure person, her reputation should not be stained like that.

Everything happened all too quickly. By the time Eliza fully came back to her senses, she was already in Tanner’s embrace. She could hear his sturdy heartbeat and feel his warmth too.

Tanner… He seemed to have the magical ability to make her relax. She felt as if she was truly safe now.

But... her sister...

The moment she thought of her sister, Eliza felt a sense of guilt.

She had lived with the Stone family for so many years. Even though she was not on good terms with Marco, and her mother would sometimes gossip behind her back, her sister had never done anything wrong to her. They were sisters who grew up together, and even though they were not related by blood, they were as close as real sisters. Yet now, she…

She raised her head and looked at the man in the suit in front of her, she had known him since she was young. In her impression, he liked her sister. She did not know why he wanted to marry her so badly?

It seemed like Eliza’s gaze revealed all her doubts, and Tanner lowered his head to glance at her as if he had sensed something. She was startled, and it felt like she had done something wrong. She lowered her head once more.

It seemed like he was… smiling. Was it her imagination? An illusion?

They got in the car, but they did not say anything along the way.

……

Eliza turned around to look at the man who was beside her, but she unexpectedly saw a pair of tender and deep eyes staring at her. It felt like she was waking up from a dream, Eliza suddenly pushed the man away from her.

There wasn’t too much distance between them, and she could feel his hot breath. No, that won’t do. Even though she had promised to marry him, she still thought that there should be some distance between them. She had thought of him as her brother-in-law for so many years. It was difficult for her to take all of this change in so quickly.

She tried to resist subconsciously, and that angered Tanner. Even though she had already accepted his proposal, even though they had been intimate, she was still the same. It seemed like he still needed to do more.

Tanner tidied up his clothes before turning back to how he usually was. He spoke coldly, “Let’s go inside.”

After that, he strode in with his long legs.
