His Only Antidote by Shirley Owen

Chapter 3

A dead silence fell upon the room. Myles was even more clear about what was going on with those photos. Nola came back in a mess that night, but he didn’t expect her to come back from the hotell

(no outsiders had been present, he would have taught his shameless daughter a good lesson.

With a serious expression, Mical stared at the photos silently for a good while. Then he threw his sharp eyes at Nola and asked. “Nola, tell me the truth, Is the person in the photos you?

Nola looked at her father with no fear in her eyes. She had already anticipated the result.

“It’s me!” She smiled wryly at the disappointment on Micali’s face. As she had expected, no one would trust her

Her explanation would make no difference. She had been a slattern in the heart of everyone present.

“Micah, since Ms. Grant admitted it, I don’t think we need to think about having her as our daughter–in–law. I know that you care a great deal about the friendship between our two families. Nor do we want to break our promise. Your younger daughter. Tanya, is a good choice.”

Nola was suddenly aware of the cause and effect till now.

It was a trap set by Tanya and her mother. Arranging her to Maple Hotel was only their first step. It was apparent who took those photos when she walked out of the hotel.

Her heart turned cold in an instant. Then, Micah’s voice came into her ears, “I don’t have any problem with that, but we may ask the opinions of the two children.”

Tanya showed a hint of shyness, and she said in a soft tone, “Eh… I think we better get familiar with each other first! But I like Mrs. Lee a lot!”

“Oh, good girl! I do think fate will bring us together. You know what? She did me a big favor last time. Otherwise, I’d be scammed by the bad guy.”

Nola tumbled to the truth that they had known each other a long time ago. Under their harmonious vibe, Nola obviously became an outsider.

She clenched her fists, yet her calm smile remained on her face. Seeing that Javion had been gazing at Tanya, Nola understood everything.

“Well, looks like this is a perfect solution that meets everyone’s liking. Ladies and gentlemen, have you made up your mind?”
