SWNOVELS Chapter 57 Let’s Go to Get the Marriage Certificate
She just knew Hugo. She knew that there was a world of difference between her and him.
It was ridiculous that she was expecting herself to enter his life circle, and was even delusional to get his love...
Elizabeth laughed self-deprecatingly, holding her ID card in a daze. When she was about to go home, her phone rang at the moment.
"Hello..." Elizabeth answered.
"Elizabeth, I'm Hugo. I have to sign a contract now. Can you wait for me for an hour?"
In the receiver, apart from the sound of wind, there was the clear and sexy voice of Hugo.
Elizabeth trembled slightly. She was both pleasantly surprised and discouraged, "Mr. Hugo, thank you for helping me out. Actually, I don't think we have to get the marriage certificate so soon. After all..."
"Wait for five minutes. Let's talk face to face! That's all!"
Before Elizabeth could finish speaking, Hugo interrupted what she wanted to say, and hung up the phone directly, leaving Elizabeth holding her mobile dumbfoundedly.
What was this situation?!
On the asphalt road, a black Bentley Mulsanne stood out from the surrounding cars.
"Ben, go back to the place just now."
In the car, Hugo suddenly gave an order, which stunned Ben who was driving.
"Mr. Hugo, we came to C Town from BJ City to sign a land sale contract with the government. You can't miss this opportunity! The government leaders are waiting for you! In case the government leaders change their minds or they are impatient, you will lose that piece of land!"
Ben looked worried. Although he tried to persuade his boss, his hands had already started to follow the instructions to move the steering wheel. He already turned the front of the car.
"..." Hugo was silent.
This time he came to C Town mainly for his eldest brother. C Town was an ancient town of Miao ethnic group with beautiful mountains and clear waters. So his eldest brother wanted to develop a holiday resort here.
Both sides were important, but Hugo didn't know what he was thinking about at the moment.
He always felt that it was right to return to Elizabeth first.
Hugo didn't show his joy or anger in front of others. It was difficult for Ben to guess Hugo's thoughts.
Five minutes later......
Elizabeth was waiting for Hugo. She looked around, only to see a black Bentley Mulsanne car slowly stopping on the side of the road. Hugo stood her up again!
Elizabeth was upset and angry. She patted her forehead with her ID card, smiled bitterly at herself as a big fool, and then turned and left.
But less than a few steps after she stepped out, she was held by a strong hand.
A force pulled Elizabeth around. She staggered and bumped into the person's arms.
"Let's go to get the marriage certificate!"
Before Elizabeth could see who the other party was, she was forcibly pulled into the black Bentley Mulsanne just now.
"You......"
Elizabeth's thoughts were in a mess. After straightening out the curly hair that had just been blown out by the wind, she raised her head to look at the person sitting next to her.
"Go to the Civil Affairs Bureau."
Hearing Hugo's order, Ben started the car immediately. Elizabeth was still in a daze.
"Sorry, I called you late and made you mistakenly think I stood you up."
Hugo tilted his head slightly and looked at Elizabeth with a serious face.
Until now, he still held her hand tightly and never let go.
"I......." Elizabeth pulled her hand out of his big hand awkwardly. She frowned lightly and replied, "My hand hurts..."
Hugo was stunned, only to realize that the palms of his hand was full of sweat. He couldn't help taking a deep breath, and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Elizabeth shook her head hurriedly with a look of relief, "Never mind. It's nice to see you again."
"From now on, you can see me every day." Hugo smiled, as if there was another meaning in his smile.
Elizabeth didn't think much, just lowered her head and sat quietly beside Hugo.
Ben, who was driving in front, couldn't help but glance at Elizabeth in the back seat secretly through the rearview mirror.
In any case, he was curious to see what Mr. Hugo's future wife looked like. Mr. Hugo was actually willing to give up the land sale for her!
But when Ben saw clearly Elizabeth, he was immediately shocked.
Wasn't this woman that Mr. Hugo asked him to send breakfast to?
Seeing Elizabeth, Ben smiled with relief. It seemed that Mr. Hugo had walked out of the shadow of his first love.
After Elizabeth followed Hugo out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, she looked at the marriage certificate in her hand with novelty.
Seeing the photo on it, the more Elizabeth saw it, the more handsome she felt Hugo was. He was handsome as an idol star... But herself...
Elizabeth frowned.
She didn't match Hugo at all...
What could she do?
She had no ways!
Elizabeth sighed and had to admit that she also liked good-looking people.
At the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau of C Town, Hugo suddenly smiled jokingly, "I married a girl from Miao ethnic group as my wife."
"..." Elizabeth grinned and jokingly said, "Yeah."
However, having said that, Hugo looked at Elizabeth's slightly immature face, and couldn't help but ask with some curiosity, "Elizabeth, are you really twenty years old?"
Elizabeth looked at Hugo, smiled slightly, and shook her head, "I was already eighteen years old in January this year. My mother wanted me to go to school early and get married sooner in the future, so she changed my age."
"You are only eighteen years old!" Hugo was shocked, completely unexpected that he would marry an eighteen-year-old girl as his wife.
Seeing Hugo seemed to mind her age, Elizabeth hurriedly explained, "In our town, girls get married earlier. Here, girls will go out to work independently when they are 16 years old. It's just that... most of them drop out of school to work because they don't have money at home!"
She was almost forced by Maisie to drop out of school to work, if it wasn't Martin...
She couldn't meet Hugo!
Therefore, Elizabeth still thanked for Lawrence Family.
"Oh, I got it!" Hugo smiled helplessly and nodded slightly. Then he took out a jade pendant and stuffed it into Elizabeth's hand, saying with a smile, "This is the jade pendant passed down by our Marsh Family. It's a meeting gift for the new daughter-in-law."
Elizabeth returned to her senses, looked down at the things in her hands, and suddenly felt familiar with it. The jade pendant had a word "Marsh" on it and there was a lifelike phoenix wrapping around the word This jade pendant looked very precious. Elizabeth hurriedly put it back into Hugo's hand, and tactfully declined, "No, no... not for the time being! I..."
