"Honey, you're so sweet..."
In the darkness, the man's husky voice came into Lottie's ears.
Her hands were tied behind her back so she couldn't move.
She could not stop the man's movements at all.
In the darkness, everything was out of control...
...
Lottie abruptly opened her eyes, her whole body drenched in cold sweats.
She covered her hot cheeks. She had been having such a dream all these five years.
She got up and went to the bathroom to wash her face. The cool water cleared her mind instantly.
She took a glass and went downstairs to take water.
"I don't want to do that! I won’t marry that old monster!"
"Ralph of the Chapman family is an old and ugly man. Everyone knows that. No woman in the whole Rexwell is willing to marry him!"
"He got burned five years ago, and he has become a psychopath after he was disfigured! I heard he's gotten two women killed! I won’t marry him!"
A harsh female voice came from the living room. "Besides, it should be Lottie who marries him! She isn’t a virgin anyway. She even gave birth to a baby. She's experienced! It's not a bad deal for her to marry that old monster!"
"Claudia Green!"
Kevin Green snapped at her, "Lottie is your sister!"
Claudia gritted her teeth and cried, "Dad, I'm your real daughter. She is just a child who replaced me in the first place. They made a mistake and you took her back to the family, giving her a rich life. But I have lived a poor life that she was originally supposed to live for eighteen years. I've only just returned to the Green family, and now I have my own business. You can't force me to get married!"
"Yes."
Eira Scott also spoke up for Claudia, "Claudia has already made a name in the business world and she is an honor to our family. How can you sacrifice her?"
"Besides, we've been raising Lottie for 23 years. It's time for her to repay us."
After saying that, the three of them raised their heads simultaneously and looked at Lottie who was standing on the second floor at the same time.
Lottie's knuckles turned slightly pale as she squeezed the glass of water.
Lottie understood.
They wanted to connect with the Chapman family by marriage and didn't want to sacrifice Claudia, so they wanted to sacrifice her.
She took a deep breath, went downstairs, and reached out her hand toward Kevin, "Agreement."
Kevin was puzzled, "What?"
"Since you guys want me to replace Claudia and marry him and said I have to repay you for raising me for so many years, then there must be an agreement, right? Otherwise, if you guys use this as an excuse again and force me to kill or do other bad things, do I have to do it all?"
Kevin froze for a moment, while Claudia and Eira behind him also froze.
"Don't you guys want to write?"
Lottie took the paper and pen, wrote down a few lines, and finally signed her name on it, "Okay, you guys can stop acting. I'll marry him."
After saying that, she went to the kitchen and took herself a glass of water, and turned around to go upstairs.
Claudia rushed over and picked up the piece of paper.
The words on it were as follows.
“Lottie will marry Ralph in Claudia’s place. That way she will completely repay the Green family for raising her up.”
Things went incredibly smooth.
Claudia looked up at Lottie's back as she went upstairs and murmured, "Mom, is Lottie nuts? She just agreed to marry Ralph. She doesn't want her boyfriend anymore?"
Eira hastily covered Claudia's mouth and looked up at Lottie's back, fearing that she would regret it.
Lottie heard everything.
Two days ago, she did have a boyfriend. She had been in love with him for six years and he was willing to give all the things he had to her.
But now, there was none.
No matter whom she would marry, she was just going to live in a new place. It made no difference.
