Go To Your Heart novel (Anna and Daniel) novel Chapter 4

Chapter 4

She knew it was abrupt, but she had no choice. She felt like a patient who was ill and went to the hospital in a hurry.
"I... I'll pay you back with interest." Anna lowered her head and explained, "I'm going to start my university, but I don't have the money to pay my tuition fee..."
Daniel Taylor turned his head and looked at her with his static eyes. The girl looked very nervous. Her fingers were red and her cheeks were light red.
That was the first time Daniel Taylor has looked at this girl's appearance carefully. Although she came here often, he had seen her several times before but he never paid much attention to her. The girl's eyelashes were very long, thin and quivering. Those black eyes were as clear and lovely as the eyes of a deer. The white and tender face looks very young and fresh.
Although from her appearance she didn't look extremely beautiful, she was very fresh, pure and innocent.
Daniel Taylor looked at the girl who tried to convince her. If he was in his normal mood, he would surely help her. But now he was not in a good mood. He wanted to make trouble for the little girl.
"Why should I help you? I don't know you. We have no relation."
Anna felt very bad, she had no idea that she will have to face the refusal for the second time. She took a deep breath and didn't say anything. She was about to turn around and leave.
"If you want me to help you, you have to accept my condition," Daniel Taylor said.
"What condition?" Anna was stunned.
"Marry me."
Marry him? Anna thought that she had heard it wrong. She was shocked and said, "Sir, what are you talking about?"
"I need a bride who can marry me."
Daniel Taylor was calm. He asked her for marriage as casually as one talks about the weather. In the past, a large number of women wanted to be his bride. Mrs. Taylor's title was very attractive. And now, his legs were disabled, but it was not really hard to find a bride now if he wanted to find it. But he wanted to create some difficulties for Anna.
Anna looked at him. She was only eighteen years old!
Although the man looked young and handsome but she heard from the former servant that he was 28 years old. But still, they have an age difference of ten years! How could she marry a man who was 10 years older than her?
There was a long silence.
Anna didn't speak. She was at a loss.
After a long time, Daniel Taylor murmured and laughed at himself. As expected, a young and healthy girl like Anna will not agree to marry this disable man.
"You can go," he said quietly.
Don't come again. He wanted to say.
...
It was raining outside. Anna didn't bring an umbrella. She wanted to leave immediately, but now she had to be trapped in this villa. She sat on the sofa. Her eyes could not help to look at Daniel Taylor again.
Daniel Taylor was a little older, but he was really handsome. Those two eyes looked like such stars, the firm face cut and the beautiful jawline, his facial features made it difficult for people to move their eyes.
Anna was surprised and worried. She thought that if she couldn't manage to borrow money to go to school, she will be forced by her mother to marry another old man. And who guarantees how that old man looked like?
Anna thought about her boyfriend John Peter who has just abandoned her, and her friend Claire who betrayed her. She felt a little more depressed. She thought about her hopeless future and felt that it's better to marry him!
Anna got up, went to Daniel Taylor and said, "Sir, will you allow me to continue my studies after marrying you?"
Daniel Taylor was stunned, "You... Do you agree?"
"Yes. I will marry you." Anna summoned up the greatest courage of her life and promised.
When Jack Smith presented the marriage agreement to her, she was still in a trance. A piece of white paper and black characters were waiting for her to sign. The hand holding the pen trembled a little. After a moment, she signed her name.
Jack Smith put the agreement away and explained, "You are only 18 years old and you can't get the certificate now. You have to wait for two years to get the certificate."
Anna looked at Jack Smith and said, "On my ID card my age is 20 years and it is OK to get my certificate now."
Jack Smith was surprised. "Okay, it is good."
It seemed that this girl was destined to be Mr. Taylor's wife. It was a great fortune to marry Mr. Taylor.
