My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day novel Chapter 8

Shawn had been terrified of her for years and trembled every time he saw her.Shawn always made Gavyn feel as if something was wrong with her.

Something didn't feel right to him.When Oliver heard her words, he opened his eyes wide, "You! You did it on purpose!"

He thought that Anika's demeanor had changed drastically because the marriage was over.

He never suspected her of lying about her sleepwalking when she was younger and injuring others.

So for so many years, she had deliberately pretended to be harmless and stiff.

Although Shawn only suffered a flesh wound back then, he was truly frightened by Anika.

However, since his nephew was in the wrong, Oliver could not pursue the matter.

Anika stared blankly at Oliver's wide-eyed pupils, thinking that he shouldn't be so surprised.

The children who grew up in the orphanage were sensitive and observant.

The caretaker treated her children well, but she did not want them to be too naive.

The helpless duckweed could sense malice, so how could it not consider defending itself? What was ridiculous was that Shawn, who had been stabbed by her back then, had been arranged an enviable job by Kayden just because of Lucy's few words.

How outrageous.

During the dispute that day, Kayden said that she had grown harsh, which may or may not have been a lie.

He only liked her kindness and submission, but she didn't hide herself and didn't know how to mature.

His world was almost perfect, causing him to both desire and reject her.

She tried her best to get close, but still failed.

Anika set her emotions aside, she directly went with him to the restaurant.

The dishes were ready in a minute.

When the door unexpectedly opened, she was ready to tell Oliver to ring someone.

Zac knelt to assist Grandpa Meyer down the stairs.

Oliver, who had just sat down in the living room, hurriedly welcomed him and helped Grandpa Meyer to the main table.

The food was served and the four of them sat beside each other.

Grandpa Meyer was in a good mood, and his dispirited face also showed some energy.

He smiled and said, "Today is a family meal, Zac, don't be too modest."

"Don't worry, Mr.Meyer."

Zac replied with a smile.

Anika stared at Zac's side face, somewhat stunned.

She did not expect him to have the patience to deal with her grandfather.

Anika suddenly remembered that he grew up with his grandfather, so she understood a bit.

Although it was a deal between the two of them, he had done his duty way beyond his expectations.

She just didn't know if he would make use of this opportunity to put other conditions forward.

"Dad, there's something I need to discuss with you,’ Oliver stated after gazing at the landscape for a time.

"What is it?"

Grandpa Meyer shift his eyes at Oliver.

Nika said that she wanted to give the North City Project to Parker.She gave it to Parker because the firm had been working on it for a long time.It's a little tough.The shareholders are having a hard time explaining it to him.

Aside from Oliver's statements, it was Anika who had gone out of her way to undermine the Young family's interests.

Furthermore, he also hinted at Zac’s motives for getting married.

Grandpa Meyer pondered for a second before nodding his head, "The project was given to Nika.Zac is also the grandson-in-law of the Meyer Family.It's too difficult for Miss Meyer to do this project.It's safer to hand it on to Parker.’’ Oliver's expression froze.

He did not expect Grandpa Meyer to react like this.

He chuckled and said, "Dad, you've only met President Hill once, and you're biased towards your grandson-in-law?"

Grandpa Meyer frowned as though displeased.

Zac put his chopsticks down and raised his eyes.

He leaned back lazily and asked, "Who said that Parker wants to develop the North City Project alone?"

Oliver wasn't what he meant.

He was stunned for a moment before subconsciously gazing at Anika beside him.

Zac followed the other party's line of sight and turned his head.

His pair of peach blossom eyes brewed an addictive tenderness, but his voice was soft and gentle.

"So it sounds so...towards me."Anika was silent.

The man deliberately accentuated the phrase, allowing her to pick up on his subtext: Drama must always be performed well.

After that, his gaze met Oliver's, and his tone seemed to be ordinary.

"Parker only participated in the early development investment, and the rest of the work was left to Young's discretion’’
