For years, she had lived in constant danger. An ordinary person would have broken down long ago, always teetering on the edge of life and death.

No matter how resilient or quick to learn she was, there would always be a day when she could not hold on

anymore.

The quiet companionship and unconditional protection from her grandfather and two uncles always gave her a seemingly endless reserve of strength.

This strength allowed her to remain calm and rational in every life–or–death situation, enabling her to navigate one crisis after another.

She did not have a large family. Her mother was gone, and her grandfather had also passed away. Now, her only remaining relatives were her two uncles.

At the dining table, Briar felt inexplicably down. She sat quietly with her eyes lowered, listening to the idle chatter between Ashton and her two uncles.

Suddenly, a warm hand rested on her head. Briar looked up and met Ashton’s smiling eyes. “Honey, I left our marriage certificate in the car. Go and get it.”

“Huh? What?” Briar was startled. She immediately looked at her two uncles across the table, only to see their brows twitching and a hint of murderous intent in their eyes.

But their lips were curled into smiles, a clear effort to appear friendly and welcoming.

Briar had been lost in thought and wasn’t paying close attention to their conversation.

‘So, did this mean Ashton has already won over them?‘ she thought. ‘Getting a marriage certificate without their permission was a huge deal. How on earth did Ashton manage to calm my uncles down with just a few words? And they were even forcing smiles?‘

“Alright, I’ll go get it.” Briar didn’t dare ask how Ashton had won over her uncles, fearing their barely suppressed anger would be unleashed on her.

She got up and strode toward the main entrance, practically fleeing the scene.

But what Briar didn’t know was that as she turned toward the door, out of her sight, her two uncles had already thrown their knives and forks at Ashton.
