Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

126 Place to meet all the tough guys

“Bro-brother,” she stuttered.

Standing on the stage while staring at Piper with an undisguised disdain on his face, the young man who was almost of the same height as Maverick and Damien raised his gun at Piper’s head.

Piper bit her lips. She was sure he wouldn’t ki ll her but right now…

“Bang!”

The music was turned off by now and everywhere was as silent as a graveyard. Nobody was allowed to leave because there were guards by the doors, preventing anyone from leaving.

Piper, who docked due to fear, raised her head to see that the gun wasn’t pointed at her. She looked behind her and saw a dead teenager with his phone by his side. Without being told, she knew he was kil led because he was recording a video of her dancing.

With what she did, there were bound to be people videoing her.

“What you do with your life outside of Country M is not my business, however, what I will not accept is you ruining the reputation of my family,” Davis said coolly.

Piper stared at this handsome brother of hers. Tall, muscular, with straight legs and a well-proportioned face. If only all her brothers saw her as a sister, she would have been the happiest girl on earth. Even now, all he cared about was the reputation that the Xu family no longer has.

“Brother, I…” she stopped talking when she saw that he had turned around and was about to leave.

Piper felt humiliated. Maverick ignored her earlier and now, in the presence of so many people, her nephew was ignoring her too?

Yes, that’s right. She was his little aunt but ha tes to see herself that way. She preferred to call him

‘older brother.’

After Piper’s mother destroyed her first husband, she went to seek warmth as a Mistress in the hands of the Patriarch of the Xu family. She also ruined the Patriarch’s first marriage and made herself the legitimate wife, however, the Xu family, including the Patriarch, ha ted her for ki lling the Matriarch, so the Patriarch ostracized her and her daughter from ever stepping foot into the Xu estate.

As for Piper, she was still a Xu, but only in name. She cannot use the power and influence of the Xu family. But because Piper was stubborn, she forcefully carved her presence in the hearts and minds of everyone in Country M. So even though her family does not accept her, everyone knows that she was the Young Miss of the Xu family.
