Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night

In the Federal Empire, any woman who had reached twenty years of age must get married, or be randomly assigned a husband by the System. Thus, on her wedding day, the eve of her 20th birthday, Valerie Sullivan waited anxiously for her betrothed, Isaac Holt, to show up—only to find out that he was not coming after all! Trapped in this desperate situation, she grabbed the first handsome stranger she bumped into and got him to be her stand-in groom. It did not hurt that this mysterious Jonny was just her type—young and innocent-looking, with furry ears and a large fluffy tail. So, what if he seemed a little lost and confused? The wedding went on as planned, and Valerie was saved from public humiliation but only for the moment. After all, her marriage to Isaac was supposed to solidify the business partnership between the Sullivans and the Holts. In addition, her sister, Madeline, did not seem too happy that things turned out well for Valerie. Worst of all, Valerie found out that Jonny was an important, influential figure—Jonathan Gunn—the first commander of the Empire and uncle to the current monarch! Who had Valerie actually married—the sensitive, adorable Jonny, or the formidable, impassive Jonathan? Would this last-second pairing end in true love or divorce?

Chapter 280: Smash the Egg?

The egg had not yet hatched.

But both Lin Ranyue and Gu Lei firmly believed that the baby inside was a little girl!

The couple would not accept any objections!

Listening to her mother's anxious voice, Su Wan said, "Mom, don't panic, take it slow and tell me what exactly happened."

"Today, Su Zhen came over. He was here to talk to me about Su Yun. I didn't want to talk to him about that, so I sent him away. But for some reason, lots of insects suddenly appeared in the garden, and I quickly had to get the domestic robots to chase them away."

"By the time I came to my senses and checked the baby room, the egg was gone!"

"It must have been Su Zhen who took the egg! It must have been!"

Su Wan asked, "What about your home surveillance?"

Lin Ranyue: "Nothing, the surveillance only captured Su Zhen leaving through the front gate while I was dealing with the insects. He didn't have anything in his hands, but my intuition tells me it was definitely him!"
