Chapter 4 President's New Wife
Three days passed quickly, the wedding day.
Looking at the gorgeous wedding dress on the bed, Claire Bennett only feels her heart twitching, her fingers gently stroking the surface of the wedding dress, and her heart is sad.
Wedding dress, marry? ... These are the most important things for every woman in her life. However, the person she is going to marry to is a stranger she does not know at all.
"Your Ladyship, the Howard family is coming to pick you up!"
Outside the door comes the servant's cold voice, Claire Bennett is shocked, then tightens her cold hands, and says calmly, "I know!"
Downstairs, the Howard family's housekeeper, Henry, waits impatiently in the drawing room, listening to Jade Bennett's chatter and raising his wrist to look at the time.
Jade Bennett notices the impatience of the housekeeper and quickly explains with a smile, "You know that it takes time for girls to dress up. Paige, go and urge Claire. Don't let others wait."
"Yes, my ladyship!" Paige answers, and she turns to go upstairs, but when she looks up, she just sees Claire Bennett wearing a wedding dress and standing on the stairs. She is just looking downstairs and knows what happened.
Claire Bennett, wearing a wedding dress, makes Henry unable to praise her. He thinks that this girl is like a pure lily, and she is delicate and beautiful.
But when he thinks about the girl's future, Henry could only sigh.
Jade Bennett hurries up and just wants to say something hypocritical. Claire Bennett bypasses her and looks at Henry and says plainly: "It is time to go!"
Looking at Claire Bennett from a close look, Henry finds that the girl was not only pure, but also beautiful, elegant, calm, and very suitable to be Mr. Howard's wife. If he can let go of the hatred in his heart, they will live a happy life...
Thinking of this, the butler sighs because he knows that it is impossible for Leo to give up the hatred in his heart. Then he smiles at Claire Bennett and takes her out of the Bennett family.
The sunshine outside the door is glaring. Claire Bennett groans and finds that, as she has thought, there is no one to welcome, no blessings, only a black Rolls Royce, quietly docks there.
Self-deprecatingly smiling, Claire Bennett pulls her dress and silently gets into the car.
About half an hour later, the car drives into a manor in the middle of the mountain. The magnificent house, the majestic momentum, allows Claire Bennett to hold her breath involuntarily.
Although the Bennett family is also rich, but compared to the Howard family, it is simply a slum. That is why that Jade Bennett has been so flattering to the Howard family's housekeeper.
When the car stops, Henry walks into the house with Claire Bennett. The strange thing is that the Howard's servants are very respectful to Henry, but they turn a blind eye to Claire who will be Mrs. Howard in the future.
Following Henry, Claire goes upstairs and stands at the end of the corridor of the second floor. Henry opens a door and smiles. "Ms. Howard, this is your room. Please take a break here first."
Claire Bennett nods and steps in. She looks at the environment inside the room and says, "Thank you, please..."
Suddenly, Claire Bennett’s words are not finished yet, and the door is slammed on, and then the door is locked from the outside.
"Mary, what are you doing?" Henry asks a little strangely.
"Mr. Howard said, lock this woman in the room, and don't let her go." The servant named Mary smiles and is happy to leave with the door key.
"You..." Henry just wants to say something, but stops.
Hearing what they said outside, Claire Bennett squats and then realizes that she is under house arrest. She immediately slams the door and screams angrily: "You are not qualified to keep me here. It is breaking the law!!!"
"Humph, Mr. Howard is the law here! You don't have to waste your energy. Without Mr. Howard's order, no one will release you!" Claire didn't know who says dismissively outside.
When the voice ends, it is the sound of the pace gradually drifting away. Claire Bennett knows that they have left, and she understands that no one will help her in this unfamiliar place.
Her body slips and sits weakly on the ground, and Claire Bennett wraps her hands around her knees.
What kind of person is this Leo Howard? Why is he treating me like that? Is he a freak? Claire is worried about her future...
Just thinking like this, Claire Bennett sits on the cold ground and gets to sleep... Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
It is dark, Claire Bennett hears the sound of a car engine outside the window, and she wakes up.
She rubs her eyes and runs to the window, trying to see the situation downstairs, but under the dim light, she could only see a stalwart figure.
However, the figure is inexplicable and somewhat familiar...
Is this Leo Howard?!
