Fortunately , Shanan hadn't lost much blood . He was knocked unconscious only briefly , and immediately stopped the commotion . Shanan was worried about my condition , so he took care of me together with the rest of the hospital staff . In that brief moment , Jayden and the others had vanished . Not knowing what I was truly thinking , Shanan didn't act rashly . He had been waiting for me to wake up . After taking all the information in and thinking it through , I asked about Nellie's condition . She was completely fine , with only a minor scrape on her arm . She had already completed her paperwork and was discharged , and had left the hospital with Jayden and the others . I lowered my eyes and scoffed . I had already frozen Jayden , Jesse , and Joel's credit cards . All the privileges they had from the Hanson family had also been revoked . They were used to living a life of luxury - they would never leave . If I was correct , the three of them were probably hiding at the villa I had bought for them . Shanan chatted with me for a while , then handed me a phone . " I heard your phone got wrecked in the crash . I got you a replacement SIM card . Why are you being so petty ? ] [ Look , I know you're jealous of how much special treatment we give Nel , but she earned it with her kindness . You have no reason to target her ! ] [ Alright , let's get straight to the point . If you're willing to give Nel two million dollars and cover her future expenses , I'm willing to stay with you forever . That's a good deal , right ? ] [ The deadline for Nel's payment is coming up in three days , I order you to pay for it now ! ] After reading the last message , I turned the phone off and gave Shanan a sweet smile . 1/3 " Our wedding will be in three days . " Shanan didn't hesitate . He immediately told our families to get things ready . I let out a deep sigh as I watched him getting busy . I took the wrong step in my past life , and I missed him for a lifetime . But this time , I would live happily with Shanan - I would make sure of it . Soon , the day of our wedding arrived . I departed from the Hanson residence ; the bridal car had just left the gates when I ran into Jayden and the others almost immediately . His eyes widened in disbelief when he saw me inside the car , clad in bridal attire . Jayden stepped right onto the road to stop us . " Lauren ! What's the meaning of this ? I'm still alive ... How can you marry someone else ? I know you're jealous of how much we care about Nel , but no one can control our feelings . Isn't it too petty of you to try and provoke us like this ? " Shanan squeezed my hand tenderly before stepping out . He grabbed Jayden , who was leading the other three , roughly by the collar . " What's a dead man like you making a scene here ? " he snarled . When Nellie saw Shanan , her eyes immediately lit up , and she instantly put on a miserable expression . " It's a misunderstanding ! Miss Lauren's been withholding my salary . They're just standing up for me , that's all . Not only is she withholding my salary , but she's also already married ... " She then gasped dramatically and quickly covered her mouth . " Oh , I'm so sorry ! You must be the actor she hired to deceive her husband , right ? I shouldn't have said so much - argh ! Why did you hit me ?! " When they saw the red handprint on Nellie's cheek , Jayden and the others were so furious that they wanted to retaliate . However , Shanan simply smiled as he looked at them like the fools they were . " What's this ? You wanted my wife's skin grafted on you just a few days ago , and now you're badmouthing her right to my face ? Are you really that tired of living ? " 2/3
