My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day

Chapter 23 

When Lucy saw that the harsh Sonia was satisfied with Anika as a daughter-in-law but did not consider her at all, she began to think that she also hoped that Anika would taste the feeling of being pressed down on her head forever.

Anika looked amiable, but inside she was really arrogant.

She successfully calculated that Anika would leave Kayden.

However, she did not expect that Anika would turn around and marry Zac, so she did not feel the pleasure of revenge at all.

Anika shook her head and smiled when she saw Lucy's complicated eyes filled with hatred.

"Lucy, don't you take yourself too seriously.Why do you always feel that others should praise you and let you go? Why don't you think about it? You're not that important at all"

She really didn't care that much about Lucy.She would argue with Kayden because she cared about what that man did.

If it was any woman, it would be the same.

Even though Kayden was in love with Lucy back then, Anika suddenly understood that there was no binding force to the engagement.

So, she decided to cancel the engagement for her grandfather.

Lucy really liked Kayden because of his care for her.

‘But so what?’ She thought.

Since Kayden did not like her back, she should always give up and do what she had to do.

Hence, Anika chose to go abroad to further her studies.

Kayden broke up with Lucy again and soon became her schoolmate again.

Kayden chased her for a year, but Anika initially refused.

However, that Christmas, she suddenly received a Lucky Charm Bracelet from the dean.

She was touched by his intentions and accepted Kayden.

Anika's voice drifted lightly and Lucy heard it, causing her to instantly clench her knuckles.

Lucy raised her head to look at her, but Anika’s eyes were completely indifferent as if she was looking at a clown.

"Did you always know--"

"Yes, I know."

The two of them tacitly understood, but Lucy already realized that Anika had always known that Kayden hadn't cheated on her.

But even so, she didn't want this man anymore.

The man she didn't want, however, was someone she had spent all her effort trying to snatch.

For her, everything she had done earlier was ridiculous.

Lucy's expression became somewhat dispirited, and her eyes turned red from the embarrassment and indignation that had arisen from the bottom of her heart.

She thought that she had really triggered Anika, but in fact, she still lost completely.

On the other side of the warehouse, Morgan did not care about Lucy and Anika's movements or was too lazy to care about them.

He picked up the call from Kayden and without waiting for the other party to speak, he went straight into the abandoned warehouse of YF Distillery in the west of the city.

Morgan did not warn Kayden not to call the police.

Evidently, he already knew that Kayden had called the police.

He only wanted to use the live broadcast to make his son's matter bigger and then die together with Kayden.

Even though he couldn't get his son back.

‘So what?’ He no longer had any meaning in living.

An hour later, Kayden drove to the west of the city.

The warehouse that Morgan was hiding in was leaning against the mountain, and its location was indeed concealed.

Until the police found the location, he still couldn't wait any longer and offered to comply with the kidnapper's request again.

"Why is there someone else?"

The moment Kayden appeared, Morgan frowned and looked at the warehouse entrance gloomily.

Anika was already handcuffed, while Morgan stood behind her and Lucy with a gun in his hand, looking at the two people who had appeared in the warehouse together.

Apart from Kayden, the other man had a straight figure and a cold expression.

It was actually Zac.

Anika’s mood was unexpected.

Although she felt that Zac would not ignore her life and death, she did not expect that he would come with Kayden.

The man gave Anika a faint glance.

Seeing that she was only slightly embarrassed, he looked at Morgan and answered casually, "You kidnapped my wife for no reason.I can't let someone else save her, can I?"

Morgan instantly understood Zac's identity and carefully sized up the expressions on Zac and Anika's faces.

Then, without knowing what he was thinking, he suddenly smiled and looked at Kayden, "President Jenkins, you can choose someone and come and change her.’

Anika subconsciously looked at Kayden.

Before she could clearly see Anika's expression, Lucy couldn't wait to struggle and shout, "Kayden, my cousin will be fine!"

These words instantly exposed a lot of things.

Anika’s expression tightened as she tried her best to maintain her calm.

She regretted that she had just torn off the adhesive tape on Lucy's mouth before Morgan.

She didn't know if Lucy had deliberately spoken out or if she was simply afraid that Kayden wouldn't choose her, but she had undoubtedly caused the atmosphere to fall into a passive state.

In the current situation, Lucy was probably hinting that Kayden and Anika had already agreed with Morgan.

She probably believed Kayden would let her go as soon as he arrived.

It was also possible that she hadn't given up and finally hinted that Morgan and Anika were lying.

Of course, Kayden was also passive.

If he chose Anika, would Morgan suddenly feel that something was wrong?

‘If I choose Lucy ..’

"I choose her."

As everyone pondered, Kayden's voice was clear and he had already made his choice.Morgan chuckled and raised his bearded chin slightly, signaling, "There are handcuffs at the door.Cuff yourself and walk over"

Kayden looked at Anika with a serious expression, clenched his fists, and bent down.

He silently put on the handcuffs on the side and walked towards Morgan.

Two steps away, Morgan suddenly let go of Lucy and threw down the two keys.

Then, he pulled Kayden over and placed the gun on his back.

"Miss Meyer, you can leave now.He coughed softly.Lucy quickly picked up the two keys.After trying, she looked at Anika with a complicated expression.Apparently, she couldn't uncuff herself.

Anika raised her eyebrows and smiled.

Anika’s handcuffed hands stretched towards her, her expression calm as she waited silently.

Lucy gritted her teeth and could only pick up the key to uncuff her.

"Pa--"

The moment the handcuffs landed on the ground, Anika slapped Lucy loudly.

The process was too fast.

Lucy was stunned for a few seconds before she raised her head in shock, "Anika, how dare you hit me?"

Anika's eyes were cold, "You used me as a shield to instigate people to kidnap me.Lucy, a slap is not enough."

If she wasn't worried about her grandfather's health, she would have made Lucy pay a higher price.

Lucy should be glad that she is her grandfather's granddaughter.

Grandfather Meyer's health won't last long, and Anika can't completely disappoint him.

Lucy was a female celebrity.

Her skin was soft and tender.

After being slapped, five red fingerprints instantly appeared on her cheeks.

It could be seen how much effort Anika had used.

However, she was still handcuffed, so there was nothing she could do.

She subconsciously looked at Kayden, only to see that the man’s expression was solemn and was controlled by Morgan, inferior to hers.

She even had to ask Anika to help unlock it.

Lucy lowered her head and her expression darkened. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

This was the first time she had felt such an embarrassment.

In the end, Lucy didn't know what she was thinking.

She actually took the key to her handcuffs and walked towards Zac, who was standing at the door.

Morgan did not want to see the two women entangling each other.

He urged coldly, "You can leave now.’

After saying that, he held his gun against Kayden's head as if he knew the surrounding terrain very well and kept Kayden in front of him.

It was clear that a single shot could kill the other party, although he was paradoxically anxious to drive the others away first.

There was only one window here, but Morgan was still standing at the dead-end of the sniper.

Outside the warehouse, Officer Smith's expression was solemn, and the snipers lying in ambush in the distance were also unable to move.

Zac ignored Lucy as he stared at Anika and said, "Nika, let's go.’

Anika met his gaze and gave him a deep look.

Then, she responded faintly and slowly walked towards Zac.

Halfway through, it was only a few meters away from Zac.

She suddenly turned her head and looked at Morgan, "Oh right, my phone was taken away by someone before.

There is information about the company's project inside, so I have to take it back’ Morgan pursed his lips tightly, seemingly impatient, but Kayden was already under his control and Anika was just a weak woman.

He just stared at Zac in the distance, and then casually raised his eyes, "On the sofa, you go get it yourself"

The sofa was behind Morgan.

Anika expressionlessly walked towards the sofa.

One step, two steps, three steps-- The moment she crossed Morgan, she suddenly turned around.

Before Morgan could even react, she moved past his neck and wrapped her arms around her shoulders to press down on Morgan.
