165 Marry a Monster?

11:50 AM

Lina Liang stood at the stone entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau beside the large courthouse.

Happy newlyweds came out of the building, beaming with joy and basking in bliss.

Meanwhile Lina stood in a white blazer and a black shift dress, and a pair of black patent heels. With her hair in a French twist, she procrastinated a couple of minutes longer, delaying entering the building.

Her ankles shook like jelly and her palms sweated. It wasn't too late to walk away and live her life.

Lina entered and stood in the cold marble hallway, sticking beside the wall as the flurry of suited lawyers pushed past.

She glanced at the stairway and back at the exit. Face with two choices, she found herself at a crossroad.

She could take the exit and condemn her little brother to face his future, possibly never seeing him again and live with that choice forever.

Or, she could commit the selfless act of putting her own happiness second and go through with the marriage to Yin Jie.
