983 Words
Would that person know about her?
Although they had only met once, she felt that person had seen through her. Even though he knew her better than others.
Daniel seemed to hear her voice and slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Joyce, a flash of surprise passed through his eyes. After he silently glanced at Joyce, he moved to the side, hugging the quilt tightly.
"What?" Joyce felt speechless. Why did this man act as if he was the vulnerable one?
"Don't touch me," Daniel whispered, his face tilted toward the other side.
Joyce was shocked. It seemed like she was the one who was sent here somehow, right? Joyce hadn't even gotten suspicious about how Daniel asked the masked man to kidnap her. He dared to dislike her first? He wouldn't let her touch him. She had to!
"Why can't I touch you!" Joyce touched his arm. Even though he looked like he had lost his mind, his body was gorgeous.
Daniel looked like a bullied puppy. His eyes opened wide with disbelief, resignation, surprise, and helplessness. The next second, he held the quilt and moved to the side again with great effort.
His look made Joyce's heart beat faster. The scars on Daniel's face did not affect his handsomeness. His current appearance made her want to tantalize him.
Joyce touched him a few times with an evil intention.
Daniel was finally angry at her touch. He suddenly stretched out his hand and firmly grasped Joyce's wrist. Joyce quickly stretched out her other hand and caught him...
Daniel realized she still wanted to move. He directly rolled over and pinned her underneath him. The effect of the previous anesthetic injection has not entirely passed. She struggled a few times and failed to break free.
"Hey..." Joyce was about to say something. Before she could say anything, Daniel intended to bite her! She immediately shouted, "Shut your mouth!"
Daniel looked slightly stunned and subconsciously closed his mouth. But his lips, in a smooth manner, met her lips. The four thin lips met together. The warmth of their lips shook them both, and they looked at each other in a daze.
Joyce was confused. How did things turn out like this?
Before they could react, the door was knocked open with a 'Bang' voice. Joyce woke up instantly. She surprisingly saw that the person who broke in was her adoptive father, Steven Willard.
Several people followed him. Steven saw her pressed underneath Daniel's body from a distance. He was such a delight. He didn't even bother to see who the woman was. Steven walked up, pretending to be angry and disappointed.
Daniel sat up, and Joyce had already used the quilt to shield her face. She didn't expect her father to come.
"Daniel, how can you betray my daughter?" Steven said with a distressed look, "You little bastard! How can you betray her? You can talk to us if you like Marina. How could you do such a thing to her?"
"That's right, Daniel, you're going too far!"
"Even if you are from the Stowes, this still can't be tolerated! How humiliating would it be for Elsa if the rumor goes out! You need to apologize! "
"I agreed, and this lady from the Greys is also poor. If you like her, you can pursue her. You can't force her. "
Joyce was shocked by these people. Although she had known that the Willards were planning to set up Daniel, she never thought they would be so mean.
Steven tried to frame Daniel for cheating on Marina Grey to extort a settlement from the Stowe family. They just treated Daniel like a fool!
Joyce looked at Daniel beside her. He did not say a word. His face was gloomy, allowing those people to babble there. Joyce took a deep breath. She could not speak at this time.
Although Daniel looked pitiful now, he was still the young master of the Stowes. He should not be bullied so easily.
At this time, Bob Stowe came out of the crowd and stood in front of them. Bob was Daniel's butler. Daniel's grandma chose Bob to take care of him.
"Please calm down..." Bob said with apologies, "It's already happened. Arguing won't solve the problem. We need to think about how to solve this matter."
"We have some simple requests. Elsa will not marry Daniel anymore." Stephen said with a sad face, "The bride could change to Marina. But Daniel must compensate Elsa. Otherwise, I will demand justice even if you Stowes is strong!"
Bob turned to Daniel and said with difficulty, "Young master, if things go on, it will only bring shame to the Stowes. Master and Madam will also be upset. We can agree to them for a backup plan."
Joyce was astonished. Bob doesn't care about the truth of the matter. He agreed to Steven's request without even fighting for the conditions.
Daniel still kept silent. He looked upset. "Young master, if you agree, then it will be settled." Bob said perfunctorily, turning his head to Steven with a compensating smile, "Mr. Willard, Marina Grey is also your niece. Let's discuss tomorrow's wedding ..."
Daniel's experience was bad enough, and these people wanted to make it worse. Joyce suddenly felt that they were bullying people too much.
Seeing Daniel as aggrieved and helpless as a wounded beast, Joyce instantly made up her mind. "Wait!" Joyce lowered the quilt and revealed her face in front of the crowd.
The entire room was suddenly plunged into an eerie silence. Immediately, Steven's expression gradually twisted as he angrily roared at her, "Joyce, why are you here!"
Steven pointed at her with his trembling finger before Joyce could say anything. "You shameless woman, how dare you seduce your brother-in-law! What kind of sins did the Willard family make to adopt an ungrateful and vicious person like you!"
