Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 190 - 188 Forced Marriage

These past few days, the atmosphere in the Huo Family has remained tense.

The servants of Huo Garden were all very clear about it.

Ever since the eldest young master returned to G City with Miss Jiayi, and both settled down in Huo Garden, the old master began to urge the eldest young master every day to get the marriage certificate with Miss Mu.

Especially in these two days, the old master stepped on the gas, urging even more urgently.

As dusk approached, Jiayi was in her room when she heard the maid’s voice from outside, "Miss Jiayi, the old master is asking for you to come down. Everyone is here; we’re only missing you."

Jiayi’s heart stirred, guessing what Huo Tianpei was probably calling a family meeting for. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The old master probably couldn’t wait any longer, not just for the sake of Mu Qingran, but also for the sake of the precious grandson in her belly.

Jiayi calmly agreed with a response, "Okay, I’ll come down now."

She changed her clothes and walked downstairs, just to see that indeed almost everyone from Huo Garden had gathered.

Huo Tianpei sat in the center of the sofa, his majesty as the head of the family oozing out, his expression several times more serious than usual at this moment.

By his side sat a strange middle-aged man, in a crisp suit, clean and tidy, resembling a staff member.

Yao Zhenru sat on the right-hand side of Huo Tianpei, unable to hide the joy on her face.

Qingran sat next to Zhenru, her delicate fingers curled up tightly, interlocked in the palm of her hands, her face rounded from pregnancy glistening with sweat, clearly excited.

On a sofa diagonally across from them, Huo Zhenyang had just returned from the company.

Having just returned to G City, he was swamped with business at work and couldn’t extricate himself for several days.

At this moment, his profound eyes showed faint dark circles beneath them, his extraordinarily handsome features having slimmed down a bit in just a few days, his arms now spread out, casually resting on the armrests of the sofa, one long leg arrogantly propped atop the other knee, exuding a noble and languid aura.

Only Huo Zhenxuan was not at home, but the second young master often wasn’t, being home for two or three hours out of twenty-four was considered good, so nobody paid much attention to his absence.

Seeing Jiayi descend from the second floor, the butler stepped forward, extending his hand, inviting her to sit on a single-seater sofa, "Miss Jiayi, please take a seat, the old master has something to announce."

Jiayi nodded, and just as she was about to walk to the sofa the butler was pointing to, she felt her hand seized, halting her steps.

Huo Zhenyang’s lips slightly lifted in a smirk, taking hold of her tender hand, pulling her towards himself, "Sit next to me."

In his indulgent and arrogant tone, there was a command that seemed kingly.

Just four words, yet they circled around in the luxurious and spacious living room of Huo Garden, causing everyone present to pause for a brief moment.

Jiayi let him hold her hand, walked around a small coffee table in the center, and sat next to him.

The man’s tender affection towards the girl needed no words, just a small gesture was overflowing with it.

It wasn’t too deliberate, nor too superfluous, yet it was memorable.

The man dressed in a black suit, styled like a staff member, was also taken aback.

Wasn’t the old Mr. Huo planning to have this Mr. Huo marry Miss Mu Qingran sitting here today?

Then, who is this Miss who came down after all?

Why does the young Huo treat the woman he’s about to marry with such indifference, not uttering a single word since he sat down, yet when this lady arrives, he treats her as if she were a princess?

Who is actually the woman set to marry the young Huo? Even the men are getting confused.

Mu Qingran’s fingertips clenched even tighter, nearly piercing the flesh of her palm. If before it was because of excitement, now it was due to rage.

However, as she hated and seethed, her fist slowly unclenched and a smug smile appeared on her face.

Humph. Let that little bitch be smug for a bit more.

In a little while, she’ll probably be unable to cry, no, she’ll just leave Huo Garden in disgrace.

Just then, Huo Tianpei glanced at the man beside him, cleared his throat, and then turned his gaze back to Huo Zhenyang, speaking in a light tone, "I know you’re busy and can’t spare the time as soon as you return, so today I invited Director Tan from G City’s Marriage Certificate Office to Huo Garden to process your marriage certificate right away. As for the wedding, I’ve asked Mr. Ou to contact the church and the priest again."

Upon hearing Huo Tianpei’s words, Director Tan produced a marriage contract in duplicate, placed it on the smooth, polished crystal coffee table, pushing one copy toward Mu Qingran and one in young Huo’s direction, saying politely:

"You two can sign this marriage contract and affix the official seal. Your marriage will take legal effect, and you will officially become husband and wife."

To actually invite a staff member from the marriage certificate office to the Huo Family’s home.

This level of forceful marriage is indeed badass.

It wasn’t hard for Jiayi to imagine that if Huo Zhenyang found an excuse not to go to the wedding, the old man would probably just move the church and the priest directly into the house.

While thinking about it in such a serious atmosphere, she couldn’t help but stifle a chuckle, almost bursting out laughing.

Beside her, Huo Zhenxuan noticed her reaction and tightened his grip on her small hand, decidedly unsatisfied.

Seeing his father forcing marriage, shouldn’t she be jealous, make a scene, be very angry?

Adopting such a careless, nonchalant attitude. And she can still laugh?

The heat of his large hand inexplicably rose several degrees, gripping her own hand tightly and painfully. Jiayi realized that the man beside her was angry and promptly stifled her smile.

Meanwhile, Mu Qingran had already grabbed the marriage contract, without a second thought, snatched up a pen, and was ready to sign.

But from the sofa diagonally in front, came the indifferent chuckle of a man who couldn’t be bothered to glance at the marriage contract on the coffee table, "Old man, having someone from the marriage certificate office here in front of my fiancée and pressuring me to sign a marriage certificate with another woman—this is really okay with you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Director Tan’s face stilled, having sensed something was off and finally it all became clear.

So the lady who came downstairs later was young Huo’s fiancée.

And now the old man Huo was asking young Huo to marry another woman.

If that was the case... Director Tan swallowed hard, turning toward the old man Huo, "Old man Huo, this..."

Huo Tianpei knew his eldest son wouldn’t agree to sign so easily and wasn’t surprised, snorted coldly, "Qingran is pregnant, and yet you refuse to marry her. For the sake of our Huo family’s heir, I would rather force you! I’ll make it clear to you today, if you complete the paperwork with Qingran now, I will consider transferring the company’s shares to you within the year, otherwise—"

This was clearly the final ultimatum!

The atmosphere in the room tensed up.

After a long while, Huo Zhenxuan leaned forward, his large hand spread out, snatched up the marriage contract, and glanced at it fleetingly.

Huo Tianpei breathed a sigh of relief, knowing his son’s character well—his career was most important, and even for the company’s shares, he would probably compromise.
