The president's seventh bride novel Chapter 51

"Do you think I am short of this small amount of money? When signing a contract requires the consent of both parties, it is sure that breaking the contract is not up to you alone!"

"That agreement does not have a legal effect at all. If I insist on not fulfilling it, there is nothing you can do."

Alicia really did not want to offend him openly. However, currently, the problem was unable to be solved even she remained silent.

"Ok, there is nothing I can do with you. But I believe your uncle can."

Dillon looked confidently askance at Ramon. The latter was like a deflating balloon, dropping his head and not daring to look at his niece.

"What do you mean?"

"Your uncle will tell you the reason. I must take the afternoon flight back to T City. You two figure it out and then reply to me. If you don't come back to see Felix by the 20th of this month, then don't blame me for not being polite."

Dillon gave an ultimatum, got up and set off at his megalomaniacal pace.

For several minutes, Alicia did not say a word, but merely stared at her uncle.

Finally, Ramon could not stand it anymore: "Alicia, don't look at me like this, okay? Your look freezes my blood."

"How come your blood freeze if you did nothing?" She sharply questioned, "What exactly do you have in his hands?"

Ramon sighed long and said in regret, "He deceived me. He heard about your marriage last month, and knew you might break the contract, so he reached to me and said he would offer me a way to get rich, and lent me a large sum of money. I did not think much about it at the time, so I happily accepted. But it was a trap! The man who made the deal with me was deliberately arranged by him, and he filmed the whole process of our transaction…"

"Deal? What kind of deal?"

Alicia asked with a poker face.

"Selling cigarettes." Ramon replied.

She sighed with relief: "What's so terrible about that. It's not illegal to sell cigarettes."

"But…"

Alicia's heart hung again: "But what?"

"The cigarettes are laced with a little heroin."

"What?!"

Alicia stood up suddenly: "You're selling…"

The word "drug" was not being said as Ramon cover his mouth in a panic: "Keep it low. It kills people!"

It was really going crazy. Alicia was so angry with her eyes blackening and her body trembling. She pulled herself together finally and said to him clearly: "This time, I will definitely off my hands." Picking up the bag, she stormed out of the teahouse.

"Alicia, listen to me. I have difficulties…"

Ramon chased out, pathetically tugging at his niece's sleeve.

Alicia angrily shrugged him away: "Which time did you not have hardships? I've heard enough!"

"But this time there really is a hardship. Your aunt is suffering from liver cancer, and the operation needs a lot of money. I have no choice, but fall into the trap of Dillon. I have no children and your aunt is my only family. I have to do something with it. I believe you can understand the pain of losing your loved ones…"

"Uncle, you are hopeless." Alicia accused him with deep hatred, "You cursed your own wife with a terminal illness to gain my sympathy."

Ramon sniffed and shed two lines of tears: "Alicia, why you don't believe your uncle. You could come and see your aunt."

"No need. I have been completely disappointed in you and aunt."

Once. Twice. No one would keep believing in the story of the wolf coming.

Alicia resolutely stepped away, but Ramon shouted behind her, "Do you think you have the right to hate your father? You are all the same cold-blooded people."

She stopped and slowly turned back, asking mockingly, "Do I have to sacrifice my own happiness to fulfill your selfish interests?"

"How much happiness do you have to marry a man who has been divorced six times?

"At least it is my own choice."

"No one forced you to do it."

Alicia's eyes flashed a trace of sadness: "Yes, no one forced me. But in that case, what could I do?"

"So you choose to do something treacherous?"

"I was wrong to break the contract, but I never wanted to keep my promise from the beginning." She paused for a moment and said sadly, "So I'm sorry uncle. This time, I will really give up on you."

Ramon knew that her made a decision and couldn't help but panic, "Alicia, no. Uncle's life is now completely in your hands. If you go away, your uncle is really a dead man…"

"You shouldn’t have done it at the first place."

She looked at her only relative in front of her with exasperation, make up her mind, and finally stopped a cab and left ruthlessly.

When she returned home, it was already twilight. After separating from her uncle, she went to her mother's grave, where she spoke to her mother for a long, long time.
