Chapter 4

The next morning, Eliza was woken up by the butler.

The butler looked like a nice and kind gentleman. They met each other yesterday.

At this moment, the butler was standing in front of her with a set of clothes in his hand. He asked, “Mrs. Valentine, why are you sleeping on the couch?”

“You should get prepared. The employees from the City Hall will be here any minute now!”

Eliza rubbed her forehead. Since she didn’t sleep well last night, her head felt heavy.

She frowned and looked at the butler with a confused expression, “Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure!”

The butler smiled at her as he said, “Congratulations on passing the test. Mr. Valentine has decided to marry you. From now on, you are officially his wife.”

Almost instantly, Eliza came back to her senses.

Everything seemed to happen too fast.

She looked at the butler in shock as she asked, “Are you sure that he wants to marry me?”

Eliza thought about yesterday. She literally ran away when she saw his terrifying appearance.

Why did Mr. Valentine reach this decision?

“Yes, I am sure. Mr. Valentine thought about it seriously before reaching this decision.”

Eliza was speechless.

She didn’t think he thought it through at all.

They only met each other for a while yesterday. His decision was unbelievably hasty!

Nonetheless, it was still good news to Eliza.

She could finally fulfill the Lawson family’s request.

Although Mr. Valentine was a disfigured man, she was still happy to have a place she called home.

Since Esme returned to the Lawson family five years ago, that place wasn’t her home anymore.

After she changed into formal attire, the employees from the City Hall arrived.

They asked Eliza to stand in the living room for a photo shoot, and then let her sign the agreement for marriage. Under the guidance of the butler, she walked upstairs.

After they went back downstairs, the employees presented Eliza with a marriage certificate. “Congratulations! You are now Mrs. Valentine.”

One of the female employees held Eliza’s hand with an envious look. “You are so lucky to be married to such a handsome man.”

Eliza twitched her lips.
