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 310: The Commander Doesn't Want to See Wanwan Sad

Gu Jue: "No need to thank me, we're all family."

Gu Lei nodded his head with much gratitude.

Now, the entire Mu Family mansion was surrounded by Interstellar Warriors.

The principal members of the Mu Family were all taken into custody.

However, people like Gu Qingyu, Su Xiaoge, and their mother Sun Huan, who were obviously not involved in this matter, were not affected.

Besides, the order was given by the old patriarch of the Mu Family himself.

Although others had temporarily lost their freedom, they wouldn't suffer any harm.

Gu Jue walked into an antique-style hall.

The furniture in the room was all wooden, and even the lighting was done in the style of simulated chandeliers.

It had to be said that the Mu Family really had a penchant for the retro style.

Upon seeing Gu Jue come in, the decadent patriarch of the Mu Family, who was sitting there, had a frightened look on his face.

The next moment, when he saw Gu Lei behind Gu Jue, his expression became very subtle.
