Chapter 245 Marry A Dead Man
Chapter 245 Marry A Dead Man
After going through the discharge formalities, the group of people returned to C City, as if they had forgotten about Michelle. Because they all believed that Frank would take good care of Michelle and everything would be fine.
After leaving the airport, a black car slowly stopped in front of everyone. The door was opened, and Monica slowly got out of the car.
"Scott, are you okay?"
She looked at Scott and ignored Emily and Walter.
The look in her eyes made Scott feel a little uncomfortable.
"Who are you?" He asked.
Monica's good-looking face darkened at once. She said sadly, "I'm your fiancee. Don't you remember?"
"Fiancee?" Scott frowned.
Emily and Walter looked at each other and were about to say something, but Monica had already sat in the car, holding the arm of Scott.
When the car left in front of the two people, Emily was so angry that she jumped up.
Why were there always so many annoying women around Scott? Although they knew that they were not the one that Scott loved, they were still willing to come up to him.
"What the hell is this woman planning?"
Looking at the direction in which the two of them left, Emily asked Walter, but Walter only frowned and said, "this is a war between you women, and only you can understand. There are always a lot of
women chasing after Scott. I think Monica also wants to take advantage of the period when Scott has lost his memory to achieve her plan. "
Top position?
It was completely strange to Emily. She didn't understand why Monica did this.
She had only met Monica once before, but she gave people the feeling that she was a well-educated and reasonable lady. No one had expected that she would also become like this.
"I heard from Michelle that Monica doesn't like Scott and refuses the marriage of the two. Why do she change her mind now? "
Sitting in the car, Emily couldn't figure out what was going on. She wanted to ask Michelle, but Michelle hadn't logged in WeChat for a long time.
They had experienced too much in the past two years and got used to it.
"Two years can change a lot of things, including people's hearts." Holding the baby in his arms, Walter looked at the sleeping little boy and couldn't help smiling.
Two years ago, he really didn't expect to have this little guy. Now, he felt ashamed and guilty for what he had done before. At that time, he didn't know what he was thinking. He actually wanted Emily to have an abortion.
Emily knew very few people here. As the father of the child, he didn't take any responsibility at all.
He still remembered how excited he was when the little guy was born, as if he had owned the whole world. Now, he gradually put down his feelings for Michelle, because he was not only the father of the child, but also Emily's husband.
He wanted to do everything he could to be good to Emily and their son.
"Is Michelle really okay? But I always feel that something has happened. Walter, why don't we go to A City again? I'm worried about her. " Emily grabbed Walter's arm and stared at him.
Walter knew that it was Emily thought a lot. He held her hand and comforted, "it's okay. Michelle is living a good life now. You saw it at that time, didn't you?" NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Hearing what Walter said, Emily was finally relieved.
Everyone knew how Frank treated Michelle. They believed that Frank wouldn't do anything to hurt Michelle.
In the River Village of A City.
It was getting dark. Michelle sat on the bed all day long. People in the village were very enthusiastic, they took good care of her. She was not used to this kind of treatment.
After all, she didn't know these people, and she was not a local. Sometimes, she really felt that these people seemed to be over enthusiastic.
In night, Michelle just closed her eyes to rest. She had slept a lot during the day, so she didn't feel sleepy now.
At this moment, the sound of firecrackers and Suona came to her ears. It was a weird night.
The voice was getting closer and closer, as if it was approaching in her direction.
All of a sudden, Michelle sat up from the bed. She lifted the quilt and stepped on the cold ground barefoot. She walked carefully to the window and listened carefully to the sound coming from outside.
Those men seemed to be holding torches in their hands. Michelle found that there were some sparkles in front of her, but they were very blurry.
"Isn't it good to do so?"
"This is a gift from God for our River Village. Do you want the local to suffer that?"
"But it's a life after all."
Outside the door, there were two men's discussions. Michelle knew that they were talking about her.
The next second, the door was pushed open. Michelle didn't know how to hide in the room. Soon, she was carried out by two men who came in.
"What are you doing? Let go of me! "
It was not until now that she realized that all the people in the village had taken care of her during her coma was for today.
"Ha ha, you are going to die anyway. It's a great honor for you to come to save our village."
"What?"
Michelle didn't understand what they were talking about. She had no idea what was going on.
In front of her was a black coffin. Michelle was pulled close to the edge of the coffin by two men.
Although Michelle couldn't see, she had a keen sense of smell.
Smelling the rotten and disgusting odor, Michelle finally understood when her feet accidentally touched the coffin.
This was the so-called nether marriage!
Before she came to A City, Michelle had heard of such things, but she was unwilling to believe it. Now it seemed that it really existed.
"You want me to marry a dead man? Aren't you afraid of being punished by God? "
Michelle roared. She knew that no one would listen to her, but she still wanted to say so.
"Punish? It's your bad luck. Why did you land in our village at this time? " The voice came from not far away. Judging from his words and behaviors, he should be an important person in the village.
"Are you the village head? Is this the rule in your village? Do you know it's illegal to find an innocent person to replace a nether marriage?"
Michelle said to the village head directly, although she was not sure whether the man was the village head or not.
But she was sure that the village head must be nearby.
"Law? I'm the law here. Hurry up, throw her in. "
"Don't touch me! Let me go! Do you know who I am? How dare you do this to me! " At this point, Michelle could only protect herself. She must get out alive.
She wanted to find Scott, she still had a lot of things to do. She couldn't die like this, and she couldn't accompany a dead person.
However, her words did not work on the people here. They were not afraid of her at all.
"What are you doing here? Hurry up!"
The leader seemed to be impatient and began to order the people around him.
Then, someone grabbed Michelle's hands and feet with ropes, and then tied her body to something, as if to control her body to prevent her from moving.
"How long has he been dead? Since we are going to get married, whether the bride should wear a red wedding dress? Otherwise, the bridegroom would be unhappy to see me. If he take revenge on you, I'm afraid all the people in your village will suffer. "
Suddenly, Michelle came up with this idea. She had to buy time. She remembered that there was a horror novel she had read before. It was said that the bridegroom would be happy only when bride wore a red wedding dress.
So now, she just wanted to have a try.
Sure enough, this sentence worked. After all, no one in the village wanted to be revenged by the dead.
"Take her to change into the wedding dress. Keep an eye on her. Don't make any mistake."
"Yes, sir."
After saying that, Michelle was carried into the room by two men. They put her on the bed and started to take off her clothes. Michelle stopped them in a hurry. She covered her chest with her hand and said, "It's disrespectful to the groom. If your bride was touched by another man before, will you still be happy?"
She made an analogy in an indirect way, hoping that these people could understand.
She didn't want to die, but she came to such a remote and superstitious village. It was exactly torturing her!
Hearing this, the two men also withdrew their hands. Obviously, they were still very respectful to the person in the coffin.
The man left, and then the village head asked two women to come in. They were wearing minority clothes, and the jewelry on their bodies would make a crisp sound when they walked.
Michelle didn't say anything to them. She didn't want to talk to them in the whole village. If it weren't for the fact that the woman in the village was afraid of death, the village head wouldn't have let her take it.
"I'm the bride now. You should respect me. Otherwise, I will be unhappy and see how the bridegroom will revenge on you. "
Michelle said tentatively, but it worked. She felt lucky in her heart.
The woman slowed down a lot and slowly put on wedding dress for her, as if they were really treating a bride to be married. Village head urged impatiently.
Michelle didn't dare to show weakness. She shouted at the village head, "be careful not to disturb the bridegroom. He is right next to you. Village head, you have to be careful. Don't wake up the bridegroom and make him think that you are scolding his wife. "
Because of her words, he suddenly became silent.
Michelle couldn't help cursing the stupidity of these people in her heart, and thinking about how to escape.
