"I promise you, dad, I will marry Aaron Mu!" Joycelin nodded at Karl with tearful eyes.

"Good. Good. Go to find Aaron Mu. Go!" Karl finally looked at Joycelin, and pointed at the door.

Joycelin was more and more desperate.

In her prelife, their marriage was a result of love and profit.

Only marrying to Aaron Mu did Joycelin understand that in order to make Aaron fall in love with her, his father had played some tricks. Karl Xia would not hesitate as long as for his company’s good, even if betrayed her daughter.

Fortunately, Aaron Mu had loved her for real, and Karl Xia did realize his goal.

In a short period after the marriage both companies had made a great fortune. But out of Karl’s expectation, Aaron Mu betrayed Joycelin, and purchased Xia's Group with a low price.

Thinking of this, Joycelin endured the pain in her heart and was going to leave the ward.

When she turned back, she found a familiar person flash across.

"Ben Ji!" Joycelin ran out immediately.

Since Joycelin was taken away by Aaron Mu, Ben Ji had been finding Joycelin. Today he wanted to visit his uncle and see whether Joycelin is at the hospital. Unexpectedly, he heard of the nurse talking about Karl Xia’s worse condition.

So he rushed to the emergency room but heard something he hated most.

Joycelin promised to marry Aaron Mu.

Ben's hand holding the door became weak suddenly. He opened the door a little bit, looked at Joycelin through the door and then he left.

Joycelin didn’t know how happy Ben Ji was when he heard of her escape. Only he himself knew that.

Joycelin’s voice rose from the back. Ben Ji stopped, and turned around with a smile.

"Ben Ji…" The smile of Ben made Joycelin feel a little sad.

He was smiling. But in her eyes, he was pretended to smile, a smile with frustration and pain.

"Did you hear anything?" Joycelin asked uncertainly.

"You're going to marry Aaron Mu." Ben Ji spoke calmly, as if he were telling someone else's story.

Ben Ji's calmness made Joycelin feel guilty. "Ben, listen to me, it's not what you think. The reason why I promised my father to marry that man because I had no choice. I was forced. In that case, you know, I won't marry him."

Joycelin Xia's words surprised Ben Ji. "What did you say? You don't want to marry Aaron Mu?"

"No!" Joycelin nodded affirmatively.

Ben Ji's heart rose with hope. Without thinking about it, he took Joycelin's hand. "Come with me, Joycelin, I will give you happiness. I can give you what Aaron Mu can give you!"

Ben Ji's firm eyes warmed Joycelin, but she did not forget her revenge.

Joycelin broke away from Ben Ji's hand and shook her head. "I can't go with you now. There is one thing I haven't done. When I finish this, I will leave with you."

"What matters so much?" Ben asked. He did not know how many times she refused him and his hope always dashed.

"I'm sorry, Ben, that's a secret I can't tell. When I reach my goal, I'll go and find you." Joycelin said firmly.

She must avenge herself.

Joycelin and Ben did not notice at all that there was someone hiding behind them. She pricked up her ears, and all the things fell into her ears.

She glanced at Joycelin and Ben and crept into the ward without their attention.

"Dad, I just met Sister Xia outside the door." Laure Jiang glanced at Karl Xia, hesitated for a moment, and said so.

She had always been afraid of her father because he treated her very differently from Joycelin.

Sure enough, Karl Xia paid no attention to what she said.

But Laure Jiang did not give up and said to herself, "I saw her with a man. She said she didn't want to marry Aaron Mu. She just pretended to promise you. She wanted to run away with that man..."

"Shut up!" Merry Jiang said sharply.

"Mom, what I said is true! I saw it just at the door!" Laure Jiang chirped and did not notice Karl Xia’s sudden sullen complexion.

"Are you telling the truth?" Karl Xia asked with a sullen face, and the anger just calmed was once again kindled in his heart.

"Yes, Dad, I saw it with my own eyes." Laure Jiang ran to the door and pointed, "Right there."

Karl Xia's face became more terrible. What he couldn't stand most was deception. It was obvious that his daughter had deceived him.

He was so angry that his face flushed with anger, and that he could speak. He covered his chest with one hand, the other pointed out the door tremblingly, managed to say, "Send her, send her to Aaron Mu, and keep a strict eye on her!"

When Merry Jiang heard this, she immediately dialed the assistant's phone.

Joycelin and Ben went to the hospital entrance, the car prepared for Joycelin steadily stopped in front of her.

She walked past in disregard, but was stopped by the driver.

"Miss Xia, please. Mr. Xia ordered me to take you home." The driver said respectfully.

"I don't want to." Joycelin pushed aside the driver. Of course she knew where the so-called home was. It was Aaron Mu's villa. Who said she was going there? She promised to get married, but she's not married yet!

"Miss Xia, please don't make things difficult for us." The driver looked back and several bodyguards suddenly emerged.

Ben immediately protected Joycelin behind him.

"Joycelin, run!" Ben shouted.

Joycelin knew that she can't run away today. These people just wanted to take her back to Aaron Mu's villa. They won't hurt her.

"Ben, they won't hurt me." Joycelin lightly patted his arm, turned to the driver and said, "I'll go with you."

"Miss Xia, please." The driver immediately opened the door for her.

"Joycelin..." Ben's words were instantly cut off from the car door. Joycelin waved and let the driver take her back.

Aaron Mu was not in the villa. He must have sobered up. Joycelin was relieved a little at last. After things happened between Sickey Yin and what happened at the hospital, it was too late and Joycelin felt very exhausted.

Joycelin didn't go to Aaron Mu's room. She was afraid to be alone with him. So she went to the attic—the most isolated place of the villa.

The attic was locked, and she ran to Aaron Mu's room to find the key without thinking.

She had always been curious about this attic in her prelife, but Aaron Mu never let her in at all. This was a great opportunity, but the place where Aaron Mu hid things remained unchanged. So she soon found the key.

After opening the door of the attic, Joycelin was surprised and speechless.

She stepped in and the pictures of the walls burst into her eyes. They were all her pictures, her laughter, her crying, her stupor, her sleep, her pictures with him, and the things they had during their love relationship. They were all placed neatly in the attic.

Seeing this moment, the sweet scenes in the prelife immediately appeared in her mind.

She never forgot how much they loved each other. Of course, she would never forget how cold and indifferent he treated her later.

Touching these things, Joycelin's feeling is very complex.

She immediately retreated from the room and locked the door, but her heart beat faster.

She saw them talking about their married life and their children before they got married. Aaron Mu recorded everything Joycelin Xia said in a book.

The child!

Joycelin suddenly remembered that the last time Aaron forced her to have sex with him without any protective measure.

But she can't go out at the moment. There may be someone outside to watch her under Karl Xia’s order.

What should she do?

She was so anxious that she wandered around the room. Suddenly, she saw the maid cleaning and thought of an idea.

"Will you go out and buy me a box of contraceptives?" She grabbed the maid’s hands and smiled.

What she did not know was that Aaron Mu had just stepped in from outside.
