Love’s Unexpected Arrival The Bride Who Came Knocking Chapter 7



Chapter 7 No Forever Bad Luck

“Chris is coming to Erus City. I heard that he is transferring his career to Erus City. But between him and me, there will never be any possibility!” Maria’s expression was not cheerful, but her tone was firm. Scarlett immediately changed the subject. “Alright, let’s not talk about him. Tell me, who is the person you want to marry? What does he do? How is his family? When did this happen? How could you hide it from me? This is too much!” Maria smiled and said, “Someone I just met. His name is … Hawk Cullen. He is handsome and rich!” Maria thought she didn’t know much about Hawk and she almost couldn’t remember his name. Scarlett looked at Maria seriously and said, “Maria, are you doing this to spite Chris? Regardless, marriage is a serious matter and should be approached with caution. Maria, three years ago, you were hurt. For the past three years, your mom has been insulting and scolding you because you couldn’t marry Chris. I know you’re not feeling well. What’s even worse is losing your own heart. But it’s said that time is the best medicine. You will eventually move on. If three years is not enough, take it easy. You are still young. Don’t just marry someone casually because of him!” As Scarlett spoke, she held Maria’s hand and looked at her with an increasingly serious expression. “Maria, listen to me. Don’t act impulsively. Even if Chris comes to Erus City, you mustn’t hastily make any decisions to harm yourself because of him. Chris is the one at fault.” Maria explained, “Scarlett, my decision to get married has nothing to do with Chris. Scarlett exclaimed, “So it has something to do with your mom, right? Your mom likes money, and Hawk is wealthy. So, you want to sacrifice yourself, right?” Maria shook her head and said, “My mom likes money, but I won’t take advantage of Hawk. Other than giving my mom 160 thousand dollars, there won’t be any other costs. In the future, I will use my salary to support my mom and younger brother. When I save up 160 thousand dollars, I will repay him.” “But do you love Hawk?” Scarlett asked again. Maria smiled and shook her head. “I don’t love him, nor do I dislike him.” “If there’s no love, how can you get married? Maria, you’re too impulsive!” “Scarlett, support me. I’ve made up my mind!” Maria thought maybe she was already past the age of romance. She didn’t have much longing for love anymore. “Maria, even if you don’t get married, you can move out!” Scarlett tried to dissuade Maria. Maria smiled and said, “Scarlett, I want to get married!” Scarlett stopped talking. She picked up a piece of meat, put it on Maria’s plate, and then said seriously, “Maria, after getting married, if you’re unhappy, don’t hold it in. Even if you get a divorce, it’s okay! Divorced is nothing to be worried about. The most important thing is for you to be happy!” Scarlett knew that Maria was living in a difficult family environment. One time, Scarlett heard Maria’s mother insulting Maria. If Maria hadn’t held Scarlett back, Scarlett would have confronted Maria’s mother. That kind of family environment could drive a person crazy. Maybe even if Maria married someone she didn’t love, it wouldn’t be worse than living in that kind of family. Maria nodded. Scarlett held her hand tightly and said, “Maria, I will always be there for you!” “Yes, you will always be there for me. Scarlett, don’t worry about me. The earth is round and constantly moving, so no one will always be at the low point of life, and no one will always be unlucky!” Maria had a warm smile on her face. The phone rang. Maria made a hushing gesture towards Scarlett and took out her phone. It was Ruby who arrogantly told Maria to leave Erus City a few days ago. Maria answered the call, “I wonder what Ms. Oliver wants?” On the other end of the phone, Ruby said something. Then Maria gave a half-smile as usual and said, “Alright, I will go. The one who can’t face the past should be Ms. Oliver, right?” *** At Canvas Café. Across from Maria, there was a beautiful and elegant woman. Maria was familiar with her, whose name was Ruby. Three years ago, Ruby cried and knelt in front of Maria, begging her to leave Chris. Ruby said she was pregnant with Chris’ child and was afraid that the child would grow up without a father. Maria refused because she didn’t believe that Chris would get another woman pregnant. Maria didn’t believe that there would be betrayal in their love. Chris’ mother, Sylvia Newell, came with Ruby back then. Sylvia forced Maria to leave Chris, for she would never let Chris’ child be abandoned.
