“You already know what you have to do later. Don’t embarrassed the Middleton family!” Jasmin frowned and said.
Chelsea lowered her head and nodded.
The Harris Clan and their Middleton family already form an agreement before for a marriage long time ago. The eldest daughter of the Middleton family will be married the heir grandson of the Harris.
However, George Harris is now dead!
Which means she will married to a dead man’s corpse.
Jasmin continued, “Even though that the groom was now a dead man, the marriage agreement will still continue no matter what, but there is no wedding to be held. The certificate already issue so you just need to show up yourself and be his widowed wife. The driver will take you there, and from now on, you will be living with the Harris family."
Chelsea’s heart sank. The truth is, she was not the original bride to be, it was Elvie, but since her groom already dead, the Middleton family didn’t want her to be a ghost bride and young widowed.
So, they took her back from the countryside to marry George instead.
At the age of fifteen, Chelsea knew that she and Elvie mistakenly exchange by the hospital staff unintentionally.
But knowing the by mistake, the Middle family afraid that Elvie would not be able to stand it. So they put Chelsea in foster care in the countryside instead.
However, few week ago they sent the driver to pick her but the purpose was not to be part of the family but let her marry a dead man for Elvie!
Jasmin looked at the time, "The Harris family must arrived to their grand mansion, get up quickly!"
Chelsea bit her lip and asked in a low voice, "H-How about Dad and brother, will they come..."
"No, they don't have time!" Jasmin looked slightly impatient. "Come on, get in the car now, if not, the Harris family will be angry!”
Chelsea sighed softly, and nodded.
The Harris family's luxury cars were parked outside, she got into the car, sat quietly, and looked back at the Middleton’s family house.
The home she hadn't returned to for fifteen years, from today onwards, she had nothing to do with them!
Seeing that everyone was gone, Jasmin immediately smiled and said with disgust, "Finally, she was gone and the problem about the marriage was solved.”
The old nanny, Leticia, said anxiously, "Madam, is it okay that you forced her to be the substitute bride?”
Jasmin glanced at Leticia and said, "Of course! Do you think we will let Elvie suffer? We’ll just let Chelsea take all the shame and embarrassment. She should thank me because she didn’t need to live with a man she didn’t love, she will also live with the Harris family. However, she will be forever alone as a widower."
***
The Harris family is a well-known family in the country of Mecca, they are living in the capital, Willis City, and they are the richest family.
At this time, the Harris’s mansion was wrapped in white, and the guests who came to mourn were from the different cities in the country.
Chelsea got down from the car as a newlywed widowed wife in red, looking out of place.
"She is now George's wife? I heard that she was brought back from the countryside, no wonder she looks cheap and plain.”
Guests began to exchange whispers.
"I heard that the old Mrs. Harris was worried now that her grandson were dead, she will never have a granddaughter-in-law, so they arrange for a woman to marry George even he was now a cold corpse. It was really unfortunate for that woman to be marry to a dead husband."
"Unfortunate? Nah! Now that George is dead, this girl may be able to live longer, if George was still alive, she will die in less than three days!"
The old housekeeper of the Harris family, Hannah, turned a deaf ear and brought Chelsea to the prayer’s hall, where the coffin was located, she said with a cold expression, "Young lady, you have to kneel here to guard the spirit of Sir George,”
Chelsea did so, and she knelt on a futon, in front of her was a fine golden coffin, a man's portrait was place above.
