Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

# marryingsomeoneelse # scum-torturing Actress Huo Ru was betrayed by her fiance and younger sister, Huo Yun. The two of them let Huo Ru catch them having an affair, but resolutely denied it in front of other people so Huo Ru would call off the engagement instead. As a result, the family saw her ex-fiance and sister as the victims, while Huo Ru became the unreasonable brat who humiliated the family by randomly breaking off her engagement. Her sister had said, “I’m actually pregnant with Zhou Dong’s child, so what can you do? Either you call off the engagement, or insist on marrying him and see who he would care for after that.” With a cunning glint in his eyes, Zhou Dong added, “Stop fooling around, Huo Ru. You don’t have evidence, so be good and let’s get married. Otherwise, your family won’t forgive you!” At the hospital, Huo Ru grabbed a handsome man who seemed to have been seeing an andrologist. The people around whispered that he only appeared in the department because he had a fertility issue and couldn’t get a wife. “Sir, are you willing to marry me? I don’t mind it if you can’t have kids with me, I only need to show my family that I’m married.” When the man didn’t say anything, Huo Ru explained, “I won’t treat you badly. Since I asked you to marry me, I’ll protect you well. I won’t mistreat you when we divorce too, I would give you a handsome severance package as compensation.” “Sure, I’ll do it.” However, only after their marriage did Huo Ru discover that her salaryman husband was actually a top-notch CEO in the country!
