Jonathan sat up straight. From behind, he could only see the slender and fragile figure of the young girl, her back exposed from under the covers.
He took out a cigarette but didn’t light it, playing with it between his fingertips. After a moment of contemplation, he said, “Tell me.”
Then, he turned his wheelchair and moved closer, just a few steps away from her.
His gaze gently brushed over her delicate eyelashes, filled with a misty haze, like a brush sweeping across his heart.
The pitiful expression on Angela’s face was truly heart–wrenching.
“Will you marry me?” Angela’s throat felt dry.
She knew she sounded absurd, but she had no other choice now.
Angela’s body was in pain, so her voice sounded weak and feeble. But every word she spoke was clear and audible to him.
“Do you even know what you’re saying?” Jonathan asked in a deep voice.
Angela had always been a little afraid of Jonathan. At that moment, with darkness descending and the room still unlit, she couldn’t make out his expression hidden in the shadows.
But with a surge of courage, Angela felt no fear.
Enduring the pain, Angela tried to prop herself up slightly. “I know. I’ve thought about it for a long time…
Her face turned pale, and Jonathan couldn’t help but soften his heart. He reached out and covered her forehead, pressing her back down. “What’s wrong with you? Lie down and talk properly.
“Oh…” Angela was obedient and blinked her eyes. Then, she quickly said, “If you marry me, I won’t let you suffer. I won’t charge you anything for your legs; I’ll help you heal them.”
Jonathan remained unmoved.
Angela licked her dry lips and continued, “Since you’re here, you should know a little about the situation. I’ve completely severed ties with the Kins Family. I want to change my household registration and cut off all connections with them. But my dad definitely won’t.

agree. However, there is one thing that can be done, and that is for me to get married.”
As long as she found someone to marry, her household registration could be transferred to the man’s household registration.
Then, she would no longer be bound by George and the Kins Family.
After much consideration, she realized that among the people she knew, the only one who could resist the Kins Family and stand up to them was Jonathan.
If Jonathan agreed to marry her, George wouldn’t be able to prevent it. He would likely be eager to arrange the marriage and urge them to proceed with it.
Angela pursed her lips and said again, “Don’t worry. I won’t be greedy for your money. We can have a prenuptial agreement. If we divorce after a few years, I’ll leave with nothing!”
“If I choose not to give you my money, you won’t receive a penny. However, if I decide to give. I’ll give it all to you.” Jonathan’s tone remained composed but carried a hint of arrogance.
“Well then…” Angela looked at Jonathan, trying hard to read his expression. “Jonathan, do agree?”
Her only bargaining chip was Jonathan’s legs, which she could heal.

The medical technology she possessed was more advanced than the present by more than a decade.
As long as Jonathan cared, as long as the Sanders Family and Lawson Family cared, Angela believed that she still had a chance to cure Jonathan’s legs.
Jonathan caressed the bracelet on his wrist and sighed softly. “Whether the marriage ist genuine or a mere facade, you, as a young woman, should give it careful consideration.”
“I have thoroughly considered it!” Angela sensed Jonathan starting to ease up and promptly conveyed her sincerity, “Jonathan, if there’s anything else you desire, feel free to let me know!”
Angela was so nervous that she didn’t even feel the pain from her wound. Her heart was pounding as she waited for Jonathan’s response.
Jonathan placed the cigarette back into the box and smirked slightly. “You have six months. If you can successfully heal my leg within this time frame, throughout our contractual marriage, I will provide everything you need.”

It turned out that she was receiving special treatment at this time.
She returned after a while and said to Angela, “Angela, someone is looking for you outside. He’s tall and handsome.”
