A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 180

Sarah rolled her eyes when she heard the request. She started to think.

"I distorted the facts out of anger and said it was Bonny who hit me first, And I did nothing."

Would it sound credible that Bonny hit me without any provocation?"

Thinking about that, Sarah felt sad again and started to sob.

"Sarah, what happened? Who have hit you? Tell me, I'll ensure that you get justice. After all, you are my future daughter-in-law." Lord Ho frowned irrepressibly on seeing her cry.

Sarah continued sobbing and said, "I met Lady Xia in the bridal shop today. Both of us were there for the first trial of our wedding dresses. Lady Xia was not there for a while. I saw her servant Bonny checking the wedding dresses. I thought that inappropriate and asked her why would she do so. We quarreled with each other. And she hit me out of the blue."

"What? Beating you? How dare she do so?"

Lord Ho didn't like Bonny. Sarah's words hardened his hatred.

"Yes. I don't know why she did it. It is not the first time that she is doing this. I am kind of used to it..."

"That woman had gone too far. I will help you. Don't cry now. Your eyes have become red. How about having dinner here? I will ask Brian to shop with you in the evening."

"Really? Lord Ho?"

"Of course, you have my word."

"Thank you, my lord." Hearing this, Sarah stopped crying immediately. It amused her grandfather. Lord Shen quipped, "Look at you, Sarah. How can you turn out to be so happy when you hear that Brian will shop with you? Don't you remember how sadly you have cried just now?"

"Grandpa, stop joking at me."

Sarah blushed, which made the two lords smiling. They thought she was shy.

"Ok. Sit here and wait for a moment. I will ask Brian to go with you. You two will go shopping after dinner."

"Okay, grandpa."

Lord Ho then walked towards Brian's room. He asked the servant standing at the door, "How is Master Ho recently? Is he emotional? Is there anything wrong with him?"

"Master Ho was quite calm during the past few days and have been eating the food on time, my lord." The servant answered.

"Open the door." Lord Ho nodded and said.

The door was opened. Brian was lying on the bed in darkness, covered up with a quilt. The light wasn't turned on.

"Get up, Brian. It is disgraceful. You're a major general. Is it proper for you to be like this?"

Brian didn't move. He closed his eyes again soon after a glance, as if there was no one in front of him.

Lord Ho frowned, "Brian!"

"What's wrong?"

"Can't I be here for nothing?"

"Of course you can. You are the master of the whole clan. You can do and say whatever you want."

Brian said and drew the quilt all over him again. His words annoyed Lord Ho. He closed the door and walked towards the bed. He sat beside Brian.

The room was quite.

Lord Ho said calmly, "Brian, it seems that I have to reveal a secret to you."

Brian remained silent.

Lord Ho was extremely calm and continued, "Do you know why I oppose your relationship with that woman called Bonny?

Do you know how did your parents die? Now I tell you, they actually died in the war. They were about to be captured by the enemy due to the intelligence leak. Then they chose to commit suicide by shooting themselves."

It was so unbelievable for Brian that he finally rose up and sat on the bed, "Grandfather, what are you talking about? You told me that they died in a car accident, isn't it? How could it be possible that their death has something to do with the war?"

"I know you always hate evil. That is why I didn't tell you the truth. I was afraid that you would want revenge." Lord Ho said innocuously, shaking his head.

The truth was so astonishing that Brian didn't know what to say or what to do at that moment.

He was determined to marry Bun. If he cannot do it, he will remain single for the rest of his life. And he will always be there to protect her.

But what if Bun is the daughter of his enemy who had killed his father...

He knew that Bun didn't leak the intelligence report on purpose. But it is undeniable that she was responsible for it.

Brian was distracted for a while.

Lord Ho continued, "It caused a stir at that time, but was settled afterwards. About Sarah, you are to blame for the mess. Why do you flirt with her in the first place?" Now she is in love with you...

"So what? Why must I marry her even though I cannot be with Bonny? I don't like Sarah at all. Past is past. You cannot force me to marry someone I don't love."

"Our clan have been in military for decades and have made some enemies. You were kidnapped when you were very young. It was Sarah's father who rescued you. Her father suffered permanent disability in the process. So I promised the Shen clan that I will grant them a request, no matter what. And that request is for you to marry Sarah. That's why I agreed."
