Were they going to stay married? Or would Brennan throw her out?
In the Hayes Mansion in Leryport, Freya Walton pushed the bedroom door open.
She was already in her pajamas.
It was her wedding night, and she was supposed to be an excited bride.
But on the contrary, her body trembled in fear. She was so scared that her chaotic mind became a little sober.
She hesitantly walked into the room.
The bedroom lights were on, but it was quiet and cold inside. A man lay quietly in the big bed in the middle.
He had an angular face, a high nose bridge, and dashing eyebrows. Although his eyes were closed, it could be seen that they were slightly sunken, looking particularly deep and mysterious.
However, his beautiful thin lips were pale, making him look fragile.
This man was Brennan Hayes. And he was her new husband.
Freya looked at him, feeling very sad.
The Hayes family was one of the most powerful families in Leryport, with assets worth more than one hundred billion dollars.
Based on the rumors she heard, Brennan was born a cold and cruel man. He was a business genius, but he lacked human emotions.
After he took over the family business, he drove his relatives out of the company, sparing no one. In just a few years, he had taken complete control of Asiope Group, the largest group owned by the Hayes family.
And as expected, this harsh approach of his had offended many people.
Not long ago, he was attacked and became a vegetable.
At this moment, he could only rely on the equipment to maintain his basic vital signs.
Everyone thought Freya was crazy to marry a vegetable.
But only she knew that she was left with no choice.
Her mother fell into a coma because of a serious illness several days ago.
Healthbridge Hospital, her mother's lifelong painstaking efforts, was suffering a financial crisis. The hospital was heavily indebted and on the verge of bankruptcy.
These crises made Freya almost out of breath.
Coincidentally, the Hayes family offered to invest three hundred million dollars in the hospital, but on the condition that she married Brennan.
She had to bow her head to this cruel fate for the sake of her mother and the hospital.
Her father signed a ridiculous contract and sent her to the Hayes Mansion in person.
According to the contract, Freya only had to marry Brennan and fulfill her duty as a wife. Then her family could get three hundred million dollars of investment from the Hayes family.
It was no different from selling herself to the Hayes family.
But she couldn't think of any feasible solution now.
Freya sighed and said in a low voice, "Everyone is saying that I married you for money, and I will live a miserable life in the future. But I know that we are just the same. Our hands are tied."
At the thought of this, she was less resistant to Brennan.
Calmed down a little, she turned off the bedside lamp. Then she lay on the bed, ready to make it through the night.
The quiet room darkened at once.
At this moment, only the sound of the medical instruments and Brennan's faint breathing could be heard.
This was Freya's first time being so close to a strange man since she grew up.
Fortunately, Brennan was in a vegetative state. So she didn't worry about what would happen.
Besides, too many things had happened during this period. She was physically and mentally exhausted.
Not long after her back touched the soft mattress, she fell into a deep slumber.
But even in her sleep, she dreamed of her father, who forced her to take out hundreds of millions of dollars to pay off the hospital's debts.
But she had no money.
She could do nothing but watch her mother dying since her father no longer paid for her treatment.
This scene was what she was most afraid of. She was so anxious that she almost couldn't breathe.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes, sweating profusely. She looked around and finally remembered where she was. Upon realizing that it was just a nightmare, she was relieved.
She lay still in the bed.
But at this moment, someone hugged her from behind.
Freya stretched out her hand in a daze.
Sure enough, she touched Brennan's warm body.
Freya was about to breathe a sigh of relief. But she suddenly thought of an idea that made her hair stand on end.
Since Brennan was before her, who was hugging her from behind?
Did someone break into the room?
