my hero
eps 72's

At first I wanted to ask the situation.

But Chris obviously doesn't want to mention that anymore. I can only give up.

When we arrived at the gate, guests arrived one by one, from the grounds to the highway filled with parked cars.

Seeing Chris, everyone smiled welcoming him.Slimly felt if they were trying to please Chris.

I don't really understand the noble families in the Imperial City, but looking at their attitude, I can estimate how much influence the Chris family has.

After greeting Chris, they will observe and judge me..

I know they must be wondering who I really am.

Chris had no intention of introducing me.

I didn't say much, smiled enough, stood by Chris, and greeted people if he told me to.

Everyone was very polite to me, but from the look in their eyes, they were trying to investigate me.

Nicholas and James also came.They came with 3 good friends Chris.5 people stood in line.They were all so handsome, all eyes were immediately on them.

Chris still has to serve guests.Therefore, he calls Uncle Wasiman to take them to meet Chris' grandfather.

James didn't notice me, as if he thought I didn't exist.

I quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

He still seems to mind me.

Fortunately, today is Grandpa Chris' birthday party.He also knows, it's not nice to embarrass me on this show.

I can only think of it with pleasure.

Not long after, Steven Shen and Erick also arrived.

When Steven saw me, he slightly furrowed his brows.

I smiled at him.

He cleared his throat once and entered with Erick.

What surprised me the most, Jade turned out to come and congratulate Grandpa Chris.

She was wearing a long white dress with blue flowers on it, so graceful and beautiful, like a woman in a painting.

The last time he was repatriated to the Imperial City after being poisoned I wondered what he would look like.

I see now he's fine, at least from the outside invisible to his mark.

It's not that I'm paying attention to him, I'm just curious.

Actually, ever since she met him, he's always been looking at me, emitting hatred from the look in his eyes.

I see, however I behave towards him, he will definitely attack me once the opportunity arises.I have no intention of reconciling with him.

However, he hid it very well.He still put on his charming smile, it looked very elegant when talking to others.

He held a tall, well-built man, his hide was similar to Jade's.

The man chatted for a while with Chris, then he brought Jade inside.The attitude can not be said to be arrogant, but it seems difficult to get along.

It seemed like that person was Jade's older brother.

If I didn't know how cruel Jade was, maybe I would still admire her.After all, everyone loves beauty.

But now all I have left is my fear of Jade.

By noon, the guests had arrived everything.The party began, Grandpa Chris went up on stage.

First he thanked the audience who came, and then he began to talk about other topics: "In addition to my birthday, today is also the engagement day of my grandson Chris, Chris,we'll all add 2 more."

Attend it directly to talk about it.

I was stunned to hear that.

Engagement ... Whatdoes thatmean?

I realized when Chris took me on stage.

So, today is not just Grandpa Chris' 70th birthday, but also my engagement to Chris?

However, Chris had never mentioned this before.

I did know that there was a condition for Chris' engagement with me in that contract, but I thought that the engagement would only take place after Grandpa's birthday party...

I smiled stiffly.

It's all too sudden, I feel confused.

I looked down at the stage with a puzzled expression, all of them were shocked as well.

No one would have thought something like this would happen.

I suddenly remembered, yesterday Chris chose my own dress.... Looks like it's for today's engagement party.It's worth it that he's so concerned about it.

Why didn't he tell me first?as a result, I was confused to face this situation.I can only smile stiffly like a statue.

Fortunately, Grandpa Chris quickly finished his words, Me and Chris followed him down from the stage.

Chris' grandfather said: "You two rest first, we'll both go toast."

Chris agreed.

Then, Grandpa Chris went to chat with some of his old friends.Chris took me to the room to rest.

As I walked, the guests' eyes were on me.

I think my legs are weakening.If Chris doesn't get me to walk, maybe I'll fall.

Fortunately today I wear flat shoes, my legs will not be sprained.

As soon as I reached the resting room, I could breathe a sigh of relief.

I've never experienced a situation like this, it feels more stressful and tiring than a school exam.

Chris smiled slightly, he gently pinched my nose: "Rest first, I'll call someone to bring me food.Outside there is me and grandpa, so don't worry.”

I hesitated to say it: "... In that case, isn't it too good?"

Even though the engagement was fake, but Grandpa Chris didn't know it.Could he feel I'm too fragile?

Chris seemed to be able to read my mind. He smiled slightly and said, "No problem, Grandpa will understand."

I finally rested in this room.

Compared to the outside, inside here is very quiet.I looked towards the dense trees in the backyard.See a stunning cluster of colorful flowers.My atmosphere became mixed.

I never imagined I'd be engaged to Chris in a situation like this.

It was really a surprise.

There's something that makes me more curious.Why don't I see Chris's family other than grandfather?

Chris said his first brother and his second brother had needs elsewhere, never to come.

But what about the others?

To my knowledge, Chris still has two uncles and one aunt.They each already have children.Therefore, the Chris family belongs to the extended family among the noble families of the Imperial City.

But today they are not coming.

I was tired of thinking about it. Suddenly the door was knocked from the outside.

A waiter brought me food.

I thanked him.See there are some spicy snacks typical of the south area on the tray.I involuntarily swallowed my saliva.

Plus, I'm really hungry.I don't want to think about anything else, so I'll grab a pair of chopsticks.

I just ate a few mouthfuls before James suddenly walked in.

I held my chopsticks tightly and looked at him without saying anything.

She looked at me with eyes as beautiful as peaches: "You still remember what I said that day, right?"

I just fell silent.

He sneered: "You're so timid, how can it be compared to Belinda."

I sighed in my heart and put down my chopsticks, "Oh, James, the proverb says women will look perfect in the eyes of their lovers."

James widened his eyes: "You mean, you're perfect in Chris' eyes?A child like you is shameless ..."

I interrupted her, "No, I mean, you like Belinda, so in your eyes, she's perfect.It's possible that I'm pretty, but my family background isn't as high as hers."

James was at a loss for words after hearing me, his fingers quivering pointing at me: "You ..."
