Chapter 290 Being Forced To Marry

"Mr. Lian, does Miss Song's being abandoned have anything to do with you?"

More and more negative news related to him, and he represented the Lian family. He shook his head helplessly with a confident smile on his face. This was the first time for Astrid to face cameras, and she looked brilliant. Astrid responded generously to the questions of reporters, "I believe that you all misunderstand. In fact, I am Mr. Lian's fiancee. We will inform the reporters when the engagement date is set. But I didn't expect that such a thing would happen today, so I have to stand out to clarify the matter. Moreover, I am pregnant now, so please let us go. By then, please come to our wedding ceremony then. "

People couldn't believe what Astrid said. Immediately, Veron put his arms around the woman's shoulder and kissed her on the lips affectionately. "I'm sorry to let you misunderstand. This is my fiancee, Lady Astrid. She is telling the truth!"

Even though Veron admitted it in person, it was no different than a public statement of Astrid. Astrid began to smile in front of the cameras, and Veron had to fawn as well.

"Be closer to each other."

The flashing light made Astrid a little dizzy. It turned out that this was the life of the upper class. She was the focus of all the people in the upper class, elegantly leaning on Veron until all the reporters left.

"Are you satisfied now? Why didn't you tell me you had arranged so many things?" Veron said while he pushed away Astrid and walked into the room with anger

"What do you mean? Are you blaming me?" With an air of complacency, Astrid leaned against the wall. She knew how angry and furious

Veron would be after the reporter left. With this in mind, she had already planned the next move, which just waited for him to speak.

"I'm not prepared for what happened today. Give me some time to calm down. Let's talk about our engagement ceremony next time, okay?" Even Veron was so tired that he lit a cigarette. He did not expect such a scheming girl like Astrid to force him into a dilemma. He could only say that the engagement ceremony could be postponed.

Astrid frowned. "Why do you regret it? These are reporters. You have admitted it in front of them. If you don't hold the engagement ceremony in time, you will be questioned by the busybody. At that time, I want to see how disgraceful Lian family is. "

What Astrid said seemed to have caught Veron in a dilemma. He just stood up and walked up to Astrid. "What do you want?"

Astrid said softly, "Well, don't be so fierce. I just want to marry you as soon as possible. After all, we will get married sooner or later."

Veron standing silently by the window, Astrid embraced him from behind and asked, "then when will you take me to meet your parents?"

Frowning, he thought, "this woman is becoming more and more greedy.".

Leila went back to the apartment in a fret. Charles hadn't come back yet. She

e scene on TV guiltily. She thought to herself, 'Charles is a good man. I can't hurt him.'.

"Leila, it's time to eat."

Charles's voice was so soft that it was without any displeasure or impurities. He knew Leila well. Once the story was uncovered, it was possible that she would never live here again. Now she could stay with him every day. He could cook for Leila and take care of Leila. Occasionally she would take off her disguise and talk with him like a happy little girl. All these had already been enough to him.

Leila washed her hands and sat opposite to Charles. He could tell that she was a little upset, probably because of what happened just now. He picked up some dishes for her in a spoiling way. "What's wrong? The dishes are not delicious today?"

His words amused Leila. He could control the measurement every time. When he seized the point of Leila, the atmosphere on the table was eased. Leila had a good appetite. Moreover, Charles specially learned medicinal lunch for the sake of taking care of Leila's food. But Leila seemed not to have noticed something special at the table today.

There was a little disappointment in the man's eyes, but he was satisfied when he saw Leila had a good appetite.

During the dinner, Leila didn't feel embarrassed. As she wiped her mouth, she stared at today's special dishes. "Did you steal it from others or cook it by yourself?"

Charles cast a glance at Leila and said, "You can guess !"

Leila nodded solemnly, "not bad, but not as good as the hotel manager."

Maybe even Leila didn't notice that Charles and her conversation was getting more and more harmoniously.

After lunch, Charles went to the study because he still had some documents to deal with. When Leila returned to her room, she suddenly felt very relaxed. After all, she had unloaded all the heavy burden and seen clearly the true features of some people. So she should be glad that she was not too late to be sober.
