He Drugged Me On Our Wedding Day And Married His Ex Instead Chapter 04
A long silence passed[直译“没人知道…”] before Grant finally cursed under his breath.
He yanked the door open and rushed outside.
But I was already gone.
Ethan noticed something was off and hesitated. “Grant… should I go bring Emily back?”
Grant stared into the heavy night outside. Something twisted hard in his chest.
He hadn’t expected me to actually have the nerve to leave.
He let out a cold laugh, face full of certainty.
“Bring her back? She’ll be crawling back in three days.”
“The license date doesn’t wait for anyone.”
When I arrived at the hotel, Sabrina sent me that voice message.
Her tone was mocking, like she wanted to shove reality in my face.
[If you really had backbone, you wouldn’t come back.]
[But I know you. You’re never give up a meal ticket like Grant.][语法问题]
[Even if nobody wants you, you’ll cling to him like gum stuck to the bottom of his shoe.][原句中式比喻]
I knew she was trying to provoke me, to make me lose control.
I almost laughed. There was nothing I needed to explain to her.
In the end, I just blocked her.
The next morning, Declan Hartwell came to pick me up for the courthouse appointment.[中式直译]
He was dressed sharply, perfectly put together.
He looked at me for a long moment, then gently pressed a kiss to my cheek.
“You look beautiful.”
I lowered my head, a little shy, and smiled.
When we arrived, I snapped a photo of the courthouse entrance, then walked inside holding his hand.
At the same time, one of Grant’s friends suddenly shot upright after a sleepless night.
“Shit—Grant, look what Emily is doing!”
Hearing my name, Grant snatched the phone immediately.
On the screen was a photo of the courthouse.
He smirked in disbelief. “What, she runs off and now she’s trying to force a wedding at the courthouse?”
The room exploded with laughter.
“Are we going, Grant?”
“Come on, no way. If he goes, he loses.”
Grant’s expression finally eased after a night of tension.
He raised an eyebrow, smug. “Let’s see how I feel. Maybe I—”
“WAIT, WHAT THE HELL?!” Someone interrupted him mid-sentence.
A new update popped up.
“Emily got married? Isn’t that Declan Hartwell—the heir to Hartwell Holdings?”
