Chapter 7

Compared to the happy flirtation between Edward Qin and Elisa Luo, Justin Lu and Sandra jones seemed silent. They remained silent all the way home.

Uncle Xu was surprised and happy to see Justin Lu and Sandra back together. But when he looked at them carefully, their expressions seemed somehow. He seemed to have understood something and signaled the departure of the other servants. Then, he walked towards the garden in silence.

Only Justin and Sandra were left in the large living room.

- Sandra jones

Justin said, with a flicker of displeasure on his frosted face,

- Why were you in that kind of place?

What right did he have to interrogate her like that?

They were married in name only, and Justin had said so himself!

Sandra replied confidently,

- Weren't you in a place like that earlier?

- I was there on business. And, Mrs. Lu, I didn't talk to the opposite sex as happily as you did.

Justin wanted to close the bar immediately at the thought of Sandra and Bill Ran's time,

Sandra felt that Justin was really angry with her, so she looked at her toes and replied,

- I didn't talk to him happily. If you want to know how I do autopsies at crime scenes, I can tell you about it. Also, you secretly met Beatrice Han at the hotel yesterday. Did I say anything about that?

Justin's eyes narrowed and he said:

- You saw it.

Composed, he continued with a sly smile,

- What did you hear?

- You promised Beatrice Han that you would divorce me in two years. I heard everything!

Sandra thought smugly, "Hey, boy, I finally got something on you. See how you teach me a lesson! "

Justin said with irritation,

- Who told you that was a promise?

- My eyes and ears told me. Su Jianan replied, but I will ignore your love affair with Beatrice Han, so don't interfere in my life. "

A meaningful smile lifted the corners of his mouth. He moved closer to Sandra.

- Are you jealous of her?

Sandra unconsciously wanted to deny it, but it seemed pointless to deny it.

She gave him a beaming smile and said:

- By your logic, are you jealous too?

Justin didn't expect his newly married wife to be so quick-witted. He curled his lips and replied,

- Mrs. Lu, you better know your limits.

This meant that Sandra had overestimated herself.

Sandra blinked and said:

- Mr. Lu, aren't you jealous?

Then she got angry and barked at him, "So you won't let me talk to the others while you have a secret meeting with your girlfriend! You have double standards. It's not fair! I certainly won't accept unfair things! If you want me to keep my distance from the others, we can discuss it after I break up with Beatrice Han!

She made a face at Justin Lu before running upstairs.

Sandra spent the first day of her married life feeling indignant.

The next day.

Sandra didn't come downstairs until 8:20. Uncle Xu greeted her,

- Young Madam, young master and you have to go to visit your family at nine o'clock. Everything is ready, you can leave after breakfast."

Sandra replied in a confused tone,

- Go visit my family?

- The couple must visit the bride's family on the third day of their wedding.

Uncle Xu explained patiently,

- This is our custom. The old lady called me and asked me to arrange everything for you this morning.

- But…

Sandra counted the days as he said,

- I married Justin Lu yesterday, so today... should be the second day?

- I don't have time tomorrow, so you can consider today as the third day.

Justin Lu came downstairs with a suit and leather shoes. The buttoning action was done by him with elegance; an aristocratic aura flowed from him.

Sandra was speechless for a while.

But why was this important? The marriage between her and Lu Justin was in name only. They were both in it for something. He needed a wife to keep his mother from pressuring him into marriage while she needed the protection of someone stronger than her father.

After breakfast, Uncle Xu put everything in Lu Justin's car trunk. He said,

- Young Master, you can leave now.

Lu Justin got up and went out, Sandra Jones caught up with him and said,

- Lu Justin, we don't have to go to my father's house. Actually, you don't want to go either, right?

- The person who doesn't want to go seems to be you.

Lu Justin's deep eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. It was as if everything was in front of him and there was nowhere to escape.

- ...

Sandra hated being seen through, but Lu Justin not only saw through her, but saw her through - she didn't want to go back to that house.

Because she couldn't treat that place as her home anymore since she was 15.

When Sandra was 15, her mother accidentally discovered that her father Roger Jones had been having an affair for many years. He even had a daughter who was only three months younger than Sandra.

Her mother only loved Roger Jones for her entire life. She couldn't handle the shock and had a sudden heart attack and died

Three months later, Roger Jones brought Jiang Annabelle and Oceane Jones home. He told Sandra that from then on, Jiang Annabelle was her mother and Oceane Jones was her younger sister.

Sandra smiled coldly. The two siblings became enemies of their father. From then on, in Sandra's heart, she had only one parent - her brother, Chris Jones.

After graduating from high school, Sandra moved away. During her college years and when she went to study abroad, she never asked Roger Jones for a penny. She only returned to this house when absolutely necessary. After she started working, she stayed in the small apartment that Chris Jones bought for her and never returned.

Chris hated Roger Jones as much as she did.

Chris could already play with the stock while their mother was still alive. After graduation, he used the money he earned from gambling to start a business back in his home country. He created "Cheng An Group" on his own. He became the biggest competitor of their father "Su Group".

At first, Roger Jones did not care about his son's small company. By the time he became aware, he discovered that Cheng An Group was already pressuring Su Group. His business was in danger. Chris wanted to force him to ruin himself.

As it was, Roger Jones also decided not to make things easy for Chris. Sandra was Chris' only weakness. So he thought of kidnapping Sandra to threaten Chris.

Chris could only let Su Group go if he did.

Chris had discovered Roger Jones' plot in time. He had wanted to send Sandra abroad for a while, but she refused to leave. So he had to find her mother's good friend when she was still alive, Tang abelia, to get help.

Tang abelia didn't even think before saying, "Let Sandra and Justin get married! I would like to see who would dare to touch the Lu family's daughter-in-law. "

And so the marriage of Lu Justin and Sandra jones and the return to the bride's family today took place.

The jones family had a villa north of the city. They arrived there after an hour's drive. A servant came to open the door and politely let Sandra Jones and Lu Justin into the living room.

Roger Jones was sitting on the sofa in the living room with Jiang Annabelle and Oceane Jones sitting next to him. When he saw Lu Justin, he put down his smoking pipe and stood up with a smile. He said,

- Justin, we have been waiting for you all morning.

- My apologies.

Lu Justin shook hands with Roger Jones. Then he wrapped his hands around Sandra's waist naturally and said:

- Sandra woke up late this morning.

Although he said there was not a hint of reproach in his tone at all. His actions also had a tinge of indulgence.

Roger Jones sighed,

- My daughter, her bad habit is that she likes to sleep.

Lu Justin's lips curved into a slight smile. He held Sandra even tighter and said:

- I don't think there is anything wrong with that.

Sandra's heart... couldn't help but jump violently.

Why was she so useless? Lu Justin's protection of her was only for Roger Jones.

Roger Jones paused for a while, but the old fox was experienced and he quickly smiled with a "puckered" expression.

- sandra, there are a lot of people who want to be justin's stepfather. I didn't think you would help me get that honor.

However, if Chris Jones and Tang abelia thought he would give up like that, then they were wrong. Even though there was not a single person who would dare to provoke Lu Justin in the business circle, he was considered Lu Justin's senior. His connections were no weaker than Lu Justin. If he really wanted to do something to Sandra jones, Lu Justin might not dare to oppose Su Group.

When he thought about this, Roger Jones took a drag of a cigarette and said,

- Sandra, you must live well with Justin.

Was Roger Jones warning her?

Sandra got a frosty smile and said:

- I know how to be a woman, you don't have to waste your efforts telling me.

- That's good.

Roger Jones knew that Sandra hated seeing Jiang Annabelle and her daughter. Yet, he still said

- Why don't you introduce your aunt and sister to Justin?

Roger Jones did it on purpose!

Sandra's world exploded in a second. However, she suddenly felt someone shake her hand.

It was Lu Justin.

Lu Justin did not look at her. Instead, he placed the reunion gift in front of Jiang Annabelle and her daughter calmly.

- Sandra told me about Mrs. jones and Miss jones. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Sandra was puzzled. Why was Lu Justin so elegant and polite to others, but such a thug to her?

That's obviously differential treatment, okay?

Oceane Jones took the exquisite package and kissed it happily. She smiled gently and said:

- Thank you, brother-in-law.

Jiang Annabelle also accepted it politely and said:

- Thank you for your gifts.

Sandra did not have the mood to stay with Oceane and her mother. She got up and left.
