Hughes Mansion. "Mom, he's not marrying! He'd rather die than marry-wahhhh..." Sarah Hughes flung herself into her mother's arms, teary-eyed, her pretty little face showing despair and helplessness. She didn't expect that the blind date she was looking forward to would turn into such a nightmare! When she saw John Anderson for the first time, her heart started to beat wildly, the man's features were firm, his nose was high and straight, his eyes were picturesque, and his thin lips were slightly pursed. His nose on a pair of sunglasses, can not see his eyes, still let her fall in love at first sight, blushing face. But everything has changed. ...... When John introduced himself, he told her that he lost his eyesight in an accident five years ago, and now he can no longer see the light. He asked her if she minded. Of course he does. He's incredibly handsome, even more so than the stars, but what's the point? She doesn't want to marry a blind man. She'll be a laughing stock for the rest of her life! "Good girl, don't cry, mom will find a way, I will never let you marry this kind of person," Jane Adams comforted her daughter, but her eyes glared at her husband who was at the side. "This is all your fault, why didn't you tell her before the blind date?" Even though John's family was powerful and wealthy, there was no way Jane Adams would agree to let her beloved daughter marry a blind man. "Sarah will never marry John, William, and I will never push your daughter into the fire!" Jane wiped away her tears, her voice firm. William Hughes sighed, and said helplessly, "I had thought he could handle it. But we also know their family's situation, there are so many debts out there, if Sarah marries over, at least it will prevent them from going bankrupt." "The old man promised that as long as they agree to marry their daughter, will give her ten percent of the shares, as well as one hundred million bride price ......" words not finished, mother and daughter's cries came to an abrupt end, the eyes flashed with a greedy light. "Mom, ten percent of the shares, the bride price of 100 million, this can make their family jumped to the first-class family in Jiangzhou, too cost-effective ......" Sarah hugged her mother's legs, pouting. Jane Adams saw that her daughter seemed to have changed her mind, although she knew that such favorable conditions are very attractive, but she still hesitates: "Silly daughter, don't say yes so quickly, or think about it again." "Mom-" Sarah looked up, a hint of cunning flashing across her face, "Dad Mom, shouldn't we forget that they have a daughter in the family? We can get Emily Hughes to marry her, give her the shares, give you the dowry, perfect!" The Hughes family had two daughters, the eldest daughter Sarah was the biological daughter of the Hughes family, she had a fair complexion and was incredibly beautiful, she was the number one beauty in Jiangzhou City! The youngest daughter, Emily, is William's best friend's daughter, her parents died in a car accident shortly after she was born, and William adopted her. Emily is actually prettier than Sarah, but at the age of twelve, she fell down the stairs and suffered a severe brain injury, making her stupid. William disagreed: "No, Sarah can't marry their daughter if she doesn't want to, but Emily mustn't be allowed to." Jane Adams, who had just been sad, immediately agreed: "Sarah is right, Emily is also a member of the Hughes family, and John only wants to marry their daughter, so it's the same as whoever he marries." William is still unconvinced: "This can't work, Sarah went on a blind date, and then let Emily marry over?" "Although Emily has a problem with her brain, even if John is blind, he won't agree to marry Emily, their family has a big background, it's not something we can mess with, and if the marriage doesn't work out, and they make enemies instead, then their family will be finished." He didn't want to agree, but the mother and daughter were like ghosts, brainwashing him. Jane said: "When John's family first proposed marriage, in fact, did not specify which daughter, and matchmaking when the two children did not meet alone, John did not know Sarah to go." William helpless: "......" Sarah smiled and said: "Dad, he doesn't know what I look like, it's okay to let any fool marry instead of me, John is blind, Emily is a fool, they're a match made in heaven." Jane was full of confidence: "Hubby, I'll say yes, ten percent of the shares, and the bride price of one hundred million dollars, with this amount of money Sarah will be able to find a good man in the future, the Hughes family will also become a famous family in Jiangzhou!" Emily was holding her bear doll, hiding behind a pillar, quietly listening to the argument. Her head is lowered, although people may not notice her, but no one can see her beautiful starry eyes flickering with spiritual light, eyebrows slightly curved, the corner of her mouth curved up a good-looking arc, showing a hint of unintentional mockery! But no one could see that she did not look any fool at all.

Mother and daughter persuasion for a long time, William Hughes finally relented: "Okay." After saying that he got up and prepared to go to the Study Room, walked out two steps and then turned back to urge: "Sarah, you treat your sister a little better, don't always call her silly, girls can't be too mean." "I know." Sarah Hughes agreed, grimacing defiantly at her father's back, but not at all concerned. The thought that the fool would soon be marrying the blind man in Anderson's family instead of herself, and that the share would be entirely her own, made her feel better. "Emily, where are you? Sister plays games with you." Emily Hughes popped out from behind a pillar, "I'm here, Emily loves to play games ......" Sarah took out a few ten dollar and a hundred dollar bills from her wallet, first she threw a ten dollar and the hundred dollar one on the ground, then she pursed her lips and smiled, waiting for a good show! Emily did not let her down, did not hesitate to pick up the ten-dollar bill, completely ignoring the hundred-dollar bill. Sarah smiled with her eyebrows curved into a line, and once again threw the tens and hundreds to the ground, but Emily still only picked up the tens, showing an innocent smile to her sister. "No, do it again." She throws the bills again, but each time Emily picks up only the tens, and the hundreds are ignored, over and over again! Until the last ten-dollar bill in Sarah's hand was pocketed by Emily, and the hundred-dollar bill was still "abandoned" on the floor by the fool. She hugged her mother's arm and pouted, "Mom, you saw me, I wanted to listen to Dad and be nice to her, but she didn't want to." "Okay, listen to your father, be nice to her, I am also tired all day, ready to go back to the room to rest for a while." Jane Adams didn't care if Emily got the short end of the stick or the short end of the stick as long as her own daughter was happy. Game over, Sarah picked up the hundred dollar bill from the ground, patted Emily's face: "A fool is a fool." Satisfied, she put the bill in her wallet and turned around to go back to her room. Emily giggled, smiling purely, ignorantly. They had played this game countless times since they were young, and every time Emily always chose the smaller denomination and gave up the larger one, Sarah always laughed at her for being silly, but she didn't know that this was how Emily got her first pot of money. When Emily was twelve years old, she overheard her parents arguing outside her study! That's when she realizes that her real father has left a fortune to the Hughes family, which seems to have been quietly transferred to her adoptive mother's name. William told Jane to hand over the money and return it to her adopted daughter. Emily then remembers, in recent years, a few times almost "accidentally" died, and it seems to have something to do with the adoptive mother! Some people will do anything for money. In the afternoon, Emily was pushed by Sarah on the stairs. ...... She rolled down the stairs, fell unconscious, and after hospital treatment, became "stupid". Fools will never be able to stand on their own two feet, and over the years, Emily has pretended to be a fool in order to protect herself. Luckily, William is very good to her, let Emily in the family feel a trace of warmth, and Jane for her no longer than their own daughters and a lot of tolerance, so she lived safely until the age of twenty. She agreed to marry in order to repay William for all the years he had raised her! Henceforth, all her debts to the Hughes family were settled. And all that Jane and Sarah had done to her was now settled when she was married off. ...... Emily went back to her room and closed the door, then hugged a doll into the closet, zipped up the back of the doll, reached in and pulled out ...... a small laptop from inside. The laptop opened silently, there is no icon on the desktop, Emily skillfully pulled out the hidden folder, enter the password, on the QQ. Ethan Johnson's avatar has been flashing, clicked on a series of messages: Shadow, Summit Corporation has a secret project investing tens of billions of dollars, we want to get involved in it? What do you think about Qingfeng's merger? Will you join the board of directors? ...... Actually, the tens of billions of dollars project and the sensational merger and acquisition are not Ethan's main concern, what he cares most is whether Shadow will attend the board meeting! Shadow is Emily's online screen name, they met by chance five years ago, and Ethan is Emily's partner in a venture capital firm. Emily is in charge of managing the company and making major decisions, while Ethan is responsible for the company's personnel and specific arrangements. The firm has been in existence for five years, and the partnership is perfect, except Ethan doesn't know what Shadow looks like, whether he's young or old, male or female. Emily flicked her fingers, tapped a decision on the keyboard and sent it out, then closed the laptop, put it back in the doll, walked out of the coat closet and pulled open the door to her room, "I'm so hungry, Emily's so hungry!"

Hughes Mansion. John Anderson sent William Hughes away, a smile appeared on his majestic face, after a few days of discussion, the Hughes Family finally agreed to the marriage, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. the Hughes Family is rich and powerful, there is no shortage of anything, but the eldest grandson Emily Hughes is almost thirty years old, and has not found a suitable partner, the old man worried about this. But Emily Hughes, the eldest grandchild, is nearly thirty years old and still hasn't found a suitable partner, and the old man is worried about that. If it wasn't for the Villa Fire five years ago, which caused his eldest grandson to lose his eyesight and his daughter-in-law to be killed in the fire, I'm afraid that the children could have been celebrating with a drink by now! Back then, John Anderson was a handsome and handsome man with a sunny and modest personality, and the number of women who were willing to marry him stretched from the center of the city to the outskirts of the city. However, who would have thought that after the fire, many suitors would immediately disappear, leaving him alone and helpless. John Anderson had wanted to give his fiancée three years of mourning, and when the three years were up, John set about arranging a match for him, but no woman would agree to become the daughter-in-law of the Hughes family. No woman would agree to become the daughter-in-law of the Hughes family. All the criteria seemed to be met, but it was difficult to find a suitable candidate. Two years passed by, and finally on a blind date, he saw a girl who didn't mind that John couldn't see, John was ecstatic, and immediately sent his butler to tell the young master the good news. "Has she agreed?" John Anderson stood by the window, raising his eyebrows slightly. On the day of the blind date, when the woman heard that he was blind, her reaction still lingered in his mind. She was shocked and angry, as if she had been humiliated beyond words, and left angrily without even saying hello. The butler was also surprised, but still respectfully replied, "Yes, young master, tomorrow the bride will enter the door, according to your wishes, just need to get a license, the wedding is exempted." "Good." John Anderson agreed in silence. In fact, he does not care whether the woman is sincere or not, he is more concerned about the family, the old man's eyes can be less on him, so that he has more time to do what he wants to do. ...... Emily Hughes wearing a bright red dress, two long ponytails pulled into a bun at the back of her head, covered with a red head, embracing a teddy bear to say goodbye to her parents. "Xuanxuan, listen to your husband and elders when you marry into the Hughes Family, do you understand?" William Hughes' face was both guilty and worried. He was worried that Emily would be bullied when she arrived at Hughes Mansion, his wife had already given a lot of thought to this, the shares were transferred in advance, the bride price was not less than a penny, however, he wanted to know how Emily would get through this period of time after she arrived at Hughes Mansion. Emily wasn't his daughter, but he'd raised her for years, and even a small dog or cat could develop feelings for her, let alone a living human being who'd been raised for twenty years. He handed a bank card to Emily and urged, "XuanXuan, remember to keep this card well, inside is my dowry, if Sheng HanYu is not good to you, you will come back, dad will support you." Red cover under the little girl nodded repeatedly: "Well, XuanXuan know, XuanXuan will be very good ......" "Know good good, don't nag." Jane Adams was secretly anxious in her heart, glancing at the housekeeper standing at the door, hurriedly interrupting Emily, fearing that saying too much would reveal the cloven foot. Before leaving the door, her heart is also glad, glad that these years the old way of marrying a daughter is back in vogue in Jiangzhou, covering the head is not easy to be discovered the bride's special features. ...... Emily Hughes was helped onto the airplane by her maid and was taken directly to her new room. The new house was not in Hughes Mansion, but in a villa a few hundred miles away from Jiangzhou, the villa backed by mountains, facing the sea, picturesque scenery, surrounded by the fragrance of fruit. "Young lady, please wait here for a while, the young master will be here soon." The butler closed the door and left. Emily's eyes were glowing, looking particularly expectant. "Hoo..." The red head floated down to the ground, and all the arrangements in the room could be seen. Spacious and bright space, luxurious European furniture, dazzling gold bed covered with festive red bedding, as if in a star's dressing room, and the window sill is plastered with big red happy words! She looked at all these things with satisfaction, and her gloomy mood dissipated. The anticipation of the groom makes her feel even more excited, as early as in the research, she has fully understood the information of Sheng Han Yu, although he is blind, but still handsome and charming, rare is, free to do what they want to do! Perhaps, escaping is not that difficult! These thoughts flashed through her mind, and the smile on her face became more and more obvious. Just when she was immersed in the beautiful vision of the future, she suddenly realized that Sheng Han Yu was standing in the doorway, her feet couldn't help but tighten, and she almost laughed out loud! When did he come in? Noiselessly, like a ghost. Emily hastily put away the smile, from the pocket took out two big red marriage certificate, stuffed to Sheng Han Yu: "This is the marriage certificate, he is my wife."

"I don't deny it." John Anderson's face was expressionless, his tone cold but firm. Emily Hughes, immersed in the beautiful fantasy of freedom, froze for a moment, and asked casually, "What?" John Anderson's aura was strong, but his tone was as calm as water: "The woman he went on a blind date with denied me, and I denied being an impostor." Emily Hughes lifted her foot and waved it in front of his eyes, "Can I see?" "The perfume smells good, the voice sounds good, why would I deny it?" John Anderson replied coldly, then suddenly grabbed her leg and wrist and clenched it very tightly. She felt that her calf and wrist were about to be broken - and suddenly she cried out, "Wow!" A cry: "pain, pain, bad man, I let go of him, big bad ......", tears flowed down her delicate face, the original lively and dynamic girl instantly became helpless, crying and screaming. John Anderson let go of her, turned around and went out, not forgetting to lock the door. ...... In the Study Room, John Anderson frowned, staring at the heavy red file on the table. "Ivy's on the woman, she wants all her details." He threw the woman's file on the table, a stormy atmosphere hidden beneath his calm face, so cold that Guard Sixteen involuntarily shivered. "No." Guard Sixteen silently picks up the marriage certificate and quietly exits. "Bang!" John Anderson slammed his fist on the table, his face so gloomy that it could drip water, who dared to count on him? Who dared to count on him? Did that woman and the Hughes Family have enough to live for? The one thing John Anderson hated more than anything in his life was being double-crossed, bar none! Not long after, the bodyguard reappeared in the Study Room, respectfully said: "Young master, the investigation is clear, the Hughes Family has two young ladies, and your blind date is the first lady, and the second lady is the great grandma ......" The bodyguard's voice became lower and lower, but did not continue. The bodyguard's voice was getting lower and lower, but he didn't continue. "Continue." "No." The bodyguard swallowed his saliva, "Two, the second miss is stupid." "Oh?" John Anderson raised an eyebrow, but had no intention of letting his legs continue to make further movements, much less trying to give people back. If a foolish woman marries her, is it not a substitute for a woman? Let's put this debt on the Hughes Family's head first, and we'll settle it later. If Missy wanted to marry, it would be even more difficult! In the new room, the woman has curled up on the bed "asleep", breathing steadily, with tear stains hanging on her face, tears rushing out of her face in a ditch. Eyeliner and mascara were smudged, blurring the eyelids in black. "Young Grandma, wake up." Zhang Maa pushed the door in, frowning when she saw her in this state. Could this be the Young Grandmother that the Old Master had married to the Young Master? Based on her not-so-intelligent appearance, there are not many women who are willing to marry the young master, although I don't understand why the old master chose this kind of person, but since the person has already married into the door, as a housekeeper also can't say anything. Emily Hughes was sleeping very well, and Zhang Ma called out several times, but she didn't respond. "Young lady, it's time to eat." This sentence finally worked, Emily Hughes sat up from the bed like a reflex: "Yes." Under the housekeeper's strong request, she washed her face before walking to the dining table. John Anderson sat on the opposite side of the table, the meal in front of her was sumptuous, but Emily Hughes' eating style was extremely ungraceful, even without chopsticks, directly using her hands to wolf down the food, which made the housekeeper sitting on the opposite side of the table frown straight. "Young lady, please be more elegant." Emily Hughes stood up and wiped her greasy hands on her body, "I'm full, I'm going back to my room to sleep." With that, she strutted off. She walked in a good direction, the butler followed and reminded in a loud voice: "Young lady, you are walking in a good direction, there is the kitchen." I don't know whether Emily Hughes heard her or not, but she suddenly turned around and walked out. "Big grandma, that's outside." The housekeeper hurriedly chased after her, no longer daring to let her go by herself, leading her back to her room.

After the housekeeper left, Sarah Hughes had a smug smile on her face. Through the mirror of her dresser, she surveyed her legs and face in boredom before locking the door and running to the bathroom to take a shower. The warmth of the water on her flushed skin, and the comfort of the shower's spray all over her body, soaking into every pore, was really quite pleasant, and Sarah closed her eyes and hummed a little song, imagining that she'd get a good night's sleep after her shower and then contact Ethan Johnson in the morning. At the dinner table, even though she had her head buried in her food, she had observed the expressions of the butlers, servants and bodyguards, which were full of contempt and disdain! In contrast, John Anderson's face was expressionless, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking. But Sarah didn't care, because she was confident that no one would bother her for a long time to come, and that what she had hoped to achieve was about to come true. After washing herself comfortably and wrapping herself in a towel, Sarah stepped out of the bathroom. "Ah..." she exclaimed, unable to help herself, "How did I get in here? How did I get in here?" John Anderson sat on the bed and said blandly, "That's their new room, I'm his fiancée, should I be surprised to see me?" Sarah quickly realized she was out of line and immediately snorted and slapped her leg, "That's funny! He locked the door but I was able to come in, brother I'm really great ...... teach me how to do it okay?" This scene is cute to the extreme, seems to be like an innocent little girl, in fact, slightly silly, and the bodyguard investigated the information is the same. But John Anderson showed great patience with her, lifting the key at his side and saying, "It's easy, with this." ...... Sarah almost revealed her crack, the smile on her face could hardly be maintained, and she cursed John Anderson in her heart: treacherous, hateful, shameless ...... Do you look down on me because you have a key? You have a key and you look down on me? Entering someone else's room without my consent is really sick! It seems that she and John Anderson's ideas are very different, Sarah has long been in the heart of the intention to take this place as their own territory, not the slightest self-consciousness to share with him. John Anderson asked lightly, "I showered?" "Uh-huh." Sarah instinctively reacted by clasping her legs, almost asking him what he wanted, her beautiful face looking a little flushed with nervousness. Despite the fact that she'd married into the family of her own free will, Sarah hadn't intended to be intimate with John Anderson at all, she'd just been looking for an excuse to get out of the Hughes Family without alerting Jane Adams. If she was a truly "normal" girl, this would be impractical, but if she was a "redneck", it would make sense, and Sarah thought that with a little scheming, John Anderson would abandon her and leave her for dead. Sarah thinks that with a few tricks, she'll be abandoned by John Anderson and left alone. But things don't seem to be going the way she expects! "I'll run the water and give you a bath." John Anderson's tone was still light, but there was no room for negotiation. Sarah was slightly reluctant, but she had no reason to refuse, and she was afraid that if she said too much, John Anderson would see through her. She knows that he is not clumsy, in front of this guy is not stupid! And their own "stupid", to maintain the image of a fool should be obedient, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. "Good, then he went to put the water, give me a bath." Sarah jumped back to the bathroom, unscrewed the faucet, "wow" to the bathtub into half a tub of cold water, and then also poured a whole bottle of shower gel into it. "Brother, I can't see, hold me." She eagerly assisted John Anderson into the bathroom. The man frowned slightly, but felt strange in his heart, she called him "brother"? This title sounded very kind, but John Anderson didn't like it at all, especially when this little woman called him "brother" out of her mouth, it was even more disgusting to him.
