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 323: Su Wan Feels Uneasy

Su Wan felt a bit uneasy.

She always had the feeling that something was about to happen.

Right at that moment, the ground began to tremble only slightly.

It was no different from the presence of a C-class Insect Beast.

Su Wan looked up and saw several of her companions, all appearing very calm.

"Do you feel that? The ground is trembling," she said.

"No."

"I don't feel anything."

Lastly, Su Wan's gaze fell on Bai Qi, the reticent junior, who also shook his head.

Bai Qi said, "Could it be that a larger Insect Beast has appeared?"

Sheng An said, "Xiaowan, should I fly out to take a look? Could it be that a large swarm of Insect Beasts has come?"

Su Wan almost agreed with Sheng An.

The next moment, she shook her head and said, "No, some Insect Beasts can fly as well. It might be even more dangerous for you to fly out recklessly."

After looking around her, Su Wan said, "Let's pack up and leave this place."

"Alright!"
