A Miracle Fault

Chapter 5 Pay Back

Of course, Nicholas would never make her marry no matter whoever the bridegroom would be.

Emmeline stared at her father, who turned around exhaustedly, "Why? Dad, it should be a marriage between Anayah and Frank, but why is the bridegroom Stefan?"

Nicholas turned to look at her and sighed, "Actually, it was indeed a wedding between your sister and Frank. However, the Byrne family required that it should be Stefan to marry your sister. As you can see, your sister is reluctant to do so. She even resisted with the cost of her own life. So your mom wants you to be a substitute."

"Don't worry. I won't force you. Just focus on your study." Nicholas stood up and walked upstairs.

When seeing the lone and frustrated back of her father, Emmeline couldn't help feeling sad. Besides Antonio whom she met half a year ago, her father had been her only spiritual anchor.

She could fail anyone else in her life except for her father. She sat on the couch silently. Half an hour later, she heard a heated quarrel sounding in her parent's bedroom.

The sound of crashing and smash was getting stronger and stronger. Emmeline stared at the door of the room upstairs, powerless.

Soon, Nicholas walked out of the bedroom and slammed the door shut.

When he went down stairs, he noticed that Emmeline was still sitting on the couch. He was a bit stunned and walked over, "Emmeline, why don't you go to bed?"

He sat opposite her while holding his own head with both hands, looking haggard.

Emmeline wanted to say something more. But she just stood up and answered, "Okay, I am going to bed."

Nicholas didn't go upstairs for sleep for the whole night.

A few days later, Emmeline was suddenly woken up while sleeping. She saw Lucia as soon as she opened her eyes, who looked flustered.
