Time Travel to Become Your Sweetheart novel Chapter 325

Markus's expression improved a lot when he saw the ancient painting. However, he still insisted that he was touched by the attitude, not the gift. As long as he had money, there was nothing he could not get.

"Yes, you are right."

Marina coaxed Markus with a smile. In her previous life, she did not feel the love of the family. Now she had it when she became cannon fodder.

Marina was willing to give up something just to protect this rare and precious affection. Marina occupied Mary's body, so she would get justice for Mary.

There was a knock on the door, and Shawn came in.

"Why aren't you entertaining the guests?"

Markus was dissatisfied with his son's sudden appearance.

Shawn said, "Today is your birthday banquet. You didn't even go downstairs. Why should I be there?"

He came upstairs to apologize to Marina for the dress issue.

Shawn knew that Marina was not a generous person. She did not flare up just now might be because it was a public occasion.

"Your female companion wore the same dresses as Marina?"

Markus was unhappy. Since then, there was no need to say. He wanted to let the woman leave. It was his birthday banquet, not a place where any girl could come.

"Dad, it's not like that."

Shawn explained anxiously, afraid that Markus would have a bad impression of Maeve.

He was about to pursue Maeve after the birthday banquet. Although Maeve was not a wealthy girl, she was neither humble nor pushy. Shawn was impressed.

After Shawn finished, he gave Marina a meaningful look.

"Dad, I chose the dress on the spot. It was purely a coincidence."

Marina's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that she was right. Shawn had already fallen in love with Maeve. He was serious.

"Alright, but you're not young anymore. Don't always be surrounded by girls. Find a good girl from a good family and get married quickly. I'm still waiting to have a grandson!"

Because the White family was a nouveau riche, Markus did not care about the background. As long as the girl's family was innocent, no one had gone to jail, and the girl's conduct was good, it would be fine.

To the White family, it was the bottom line.

"Dad, I'll do it as soon as possible."

When mentioned about marriage before, Shawn had an impatient look on his face, but now he nodded and agreed.

"Good, very good!"

Markus was very happy and felt that his life had hope again.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Markus went out to entertain guests. Shawn said, "Marina, do you have a dress to lend to Maeve so that she can change it."

Fortunately, Shawn didn't ask Marina to change clothes, which meant that Maeve's status had not exceeded Marina's.

Marina understood what Shawn was thinking and explained, "Shawn, the styles of the dresses are similar. There is nothing wrong with the dress. I really don't mind!"

"Alright, I'll go downstairs first. You should get ready. I saw your friends among the guests."

Shawn said a few words and then went downstairs. Marina sat on the sofa and was deep in thought.

Because she came through, many plots changed, and everything was unknown. Marina felt a little panic, afraid that she could not deal with the following change.

"Mrs. Langdon!"

The maid stood at the door and said in a low voice.

"What's the matter?"

The knock interrupted Marina's thoughts. In fact, she didn't want to face such an occasion. After all, she was not the original one and was afraid that her behavior would be embarrassing.

"Mr. Langdon came."

Ryder felt something was wrong again that Marina didn't say a word. He took two steps forward and looked down at Marina. Then, he bent down. Their faces were only one centimeter away.

Marina almost couldn't breathe and wanted to retreat. Her eyes turned red.

It was not because she wanted to cry. She subconsciously reacted when she saw Ryder.

"No..."

Before Marina could speak, she was pressed on the sofa by Ryder. The tall figure pressed her down and seized her lips forcefully.

No matter what method Marina used, she successfully attracted Ryder's attention!

The sudden kiss was like a rain of ice, beating down densely. Marina widened her eyes and quickly froze. This was too far away from the script. It was not supposed to be like this!

Could it be that Ryder was impulsive towards the female lead and couldn't help taking Marina as a substitute?

What a dirty man!

Marina tried to push Ryder away angrily but found that she was held in his arms. There was no gap between their bodies, and she could not move.

"Do you want me to do it now?"

The more Marina struggled, the more impulsive Ryder was.

Ryder used to be proud of his ability to control himself well. He was annoyed, feeling lost control, and immediately warned Marina with a hoarse voice.

Marina was stiff and didn't dare to move. Her eyes filled with tears, like a frightened deer.

Marina didn't know whether the original owner was experienced. But she really had no experience. She just wanted to dodge when facing Ryder.

"Don't move. Good."

Ryder rubbed Marina's hair. His eyes were dark, and he tried to suppress the flames in his body. If the woman moved again, he could not guarantee that he would be as calm as he was now.
