Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 744

"You really don't want me to look for her?" Zayn's eyes were filled with heartache as his large hand patted Lindsey's soft hair.

"No need for now." Lindsey shook her head and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. "Since she doesn't want to show herself, it’ll just make it difficult for her if we look for her. It's better to let her be free. I'll just wait for her to come back to me."

Her tone was serious while her fair little face looked determined.

"You little fool." Zayn hugged her waist and led her to their room. "Alright, let's go back."

"Mm."

Lindsey nodded heavily. It was their big day today, so she had to be more cheerful.

After putting away Sieben’s gift, the couple went to the reception hall. All the guests were already seated. When the couple walked in together, all eyes were on them.

There were many handsome men and beautiful women in this world, but it was rare to see such a good-looking and elegant pair like Zayn and Lindsey. Particularly when the two of them were dressed up, they were like a match made in heaven, so much so that the guests could not take their eyes off of the beautiful pair.

"Let's go around for a toast." Zayn held Lindsey’s hand as they walked around a few tables to entertain some elders and business partners before Zayn led her to take a seat.

She was his bride, so he did not want her to get too tired entertaining their guests.

"Then you should take it easy. Don't drink too much," Lindsey said softly as she leaned into his ear.

Zayn looked reluctant to leave and suddenly felt resentment for all these social etiquettes. His beautiful bride was right in front of him, yet he could only look at her longingly. He could not wait to touch her and talk to her after the reception when they were all alone.

Lindsey could see the displeasure on his face, so she smiled with her eyes and left his side lest he got capricious.

When she walked down the red carpet in the middle of the hall, Lindsey could hear people talking about her. Some were good, while others were bad.

In the past, Lindsey might have gone up to them to give her two cents, but at this moment, she just laughed it off. Talking in her defense would not help the situation, and only time would prove everything.

Besides, today was her big day, so why should she argue with those people?

Lindsey raised her chin slightly and pretended not to hear those comments. She just smiled as she walked elegantly out of the hall. Her gracious temperament was enough to shut those people up.

When she returned to the bedroom, Lindsey realized that her face was stiff from smiling all day.

"This is just too tiring!"

Lindsey sighed. She could finally take off her 4-inch heels and went to take a hot bath.

When she got out of the shower, she looked at the rose petals laid out on the bed and still felt like everything was a dream. It was only when she threw herself onto the big bed and smelled the fragrance of roses that she got a little sense of reality.

Zayn came back to the room at dusk. His cheeks were slightly red and he smelled of alcohol.

"Are you tired?" Lindsey hurriedly took a warm towel to wipe his face.

"You'll know in a moment." Zayn raised his eyebrows and clasped her small hands as he pulled her closer to him.

Lindsey subconsciously took a step back, but she had her back against a wall and could no longer retreat.

"You're drunk." Her voice was low with a shyness that she was aware of.

"You know how much I can drink." Zayn lifted her chin and met her clear eyes. He then tightly encircled her thin waist. "Lindsey, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

His voice was deep and his breath carried the fragrance of red wine. When his warm breath fell on Lindsey's lips, everything became heated.
