“What? Anning ran away before the wedding?!” Looking at her aunt’s sad expression, Lu An’an felt a little upset. Her aunt and her mother were twins, and they looked very similar. Lu An’an kept her eyes on her aunt as if facing her mother. However, her mother was not as lucky as her aunt. Her aunt married a rich man and lived a life of luxury.
Her mother didn’t have a good life. Her father was a farmer who had some fruit trees and vegetable greenhouses at home. His income wasn’t low, but unfortunately, her mother contracted cancer five years ago. The treatment required a lot of money, which took up all their savings. Even so, they still could not cover the medical expenses. All these years, her aunt, Li Meihua offered help to her family so that her mother was able to continue the treatment. Lu An’an was very grateful to her aunt’s family.
“An’an, I have no choice,” Li Meihua cried. “The man my daughter is going to marry is the head of the largest mafia family in the west! Anning is pregnant with someone else’s child. She ran away before the wedding. If that man finds out, he will definitely kill our entire family!”
“Then what should we do?” Lu An’an was also anxious. Her forehead knotted in a frown, and she was on the verge of tears. She was naturally emotional. Her lacrimal gland seemed to be particularly well-developed. She was a real crybaby. Her aunt looked like her mother. Seeing her aunt show such an expression in front of her, she almost could not hold back her tears.
Li Meihua suddenly grabbed her hand and pleaded, “An’an, everyone says that you look like Anning. You can take Anning’s place and marry him! You have to help me, okay?”
Lu An’an was stunned. Of course not!
Marry him? She hadn’t even graduated from university yet, so how could she get married? Moreover, that person was her brother-in-law! Even if she wanted to get married, she would only marry someone she truly loved. She had no romance in the past. Now her aunt was asking her to marry a stranger. It was absolutely impossible!
“I am begging you,” Li Meihua cried. She actually tended to kneel down in front of Lu An’an. “The wedding would be held in three days. If you don’t marry him, we would be doomed to death.”
“Where is Anning now? Can’t we just get her back?” Lu An’an was very confused. Marriage was such a big deal. How could she replace the bride? At least they should ask the groom if he was willing. Lu An’an did not think that the groom would agree that.
“He is the head of the biggest family in the west. He is also the richest man in the western part of the country! However, he was assassinated three years ago. Then, he went into a vegetative state. Many famous doctors said that he might not be able to wake up in the future,” Li Meihua explained to her. “It’s just a pretense to get married. When things quiet down, I will personally visit Madame Yan and ask for a divorce.”
That man was in a vegetative state. No wonder her cousin wanted to run away before the wedding. If she really married him, she would live a widow-like life. Her cousin probably couldn’t stand that. Moreover, the man was from a mafia family. He must have many brutal brothers and sisters. Perhaps the parents-in-law were also vicious and stubborn. If she really became his wife, she might be bullied by his horrible family!
“But...” Lu An’an wanted to refuse. Li Meihua’s expression suddenly changed. She said with a strong attitude, “You know about your mother’s health condition. I helped with her medical fees previously. Now It’s time for you to repay me! If you don’t help me, you and your older brother will need to think of another way to pay for your mother’s medical fees in the future!”
Lu An’an did not expect that her aunt would suddenly turn on her and use her mother to threaten her! This dumbfounded her for a moment. She looked at the woman who took after her mother. At first, she was still trying to justify her aunt’s behavior in her heart, thinking that she said those crazy things due to anxiety. She did not expect that her aunt had this plan from the beginning!
“The Yan family has given us one million dollars as bride price. If you agree to marry him, I will give you 200,000 dollars to treat your mother’s illness,” Li Meihua said condescendingly.
