Destined Marriage with Uncle Kayden

Kayden ordered his driver to take them to the bureau’s office. Lilian watched the man stare at the iPad in his hand. A touch of cunning look flashed in his eyes as he sent emails. Seeing Kayden was busy with his work, she turned her head and simply enjoyed the view outside.

Suddenly, a burst of tight feeling pain came from her lower abdomen, and she felt the warm liquid coming out directly from below.

Something must be imbalanced with her hormones! Her period should be on next week.

Her menstruation was always on time, so she was not prepared right now. It frustrated her even more, when she realized that she was wearing a couple of white trousers.

As she tried to think of a way to settle her period, another bout of warm liquid flowed. She could now smell the faint fragrance of blood in the air.

She gritted her teeth, turned around, and smiled awkwardly at Kayden, who was thoughtfully staring at his iPad. "Mr. Kayden, I..." She couldn’t continue her words. "Just call me Kayden or honey,” the man said with a smirk.

Now that she could see Kayden up close, she realized that the man was extremely handsome. Like the type of boy straight out of a runway or television.

"Okay, Umm.. Hon-honey, can we go to the bureau at another time?" Lilian didn't dare to look at him more, because his deep eyes were like a pool. She felt she would be sucked in if she looked at him more.

"Can you give me at least a reason why? Or you're just having doubts about our arrangement?" Kayden frowned slightly and asked.

"Don't worry, I definitely don't regret it! I... I..." Lilian felt another burst of tight feeling pain in her lower abdomen. She couldn't help raising her hand and covering her stomach.

"What happened? Is there something wrong?" Kayden put down the iPad and pressed her shoulder. Only then did he find that a thin layer of sweat had seeped from her forehead.

"Your face looks pale," Kayden said seriously in displeasure.

"I’m on my period, so it's normal that my face looks pale!" Lilian yelled out in annoyance."Just take me home; I'll clean up and go to the bureau with you!"

"You sure that you're okay?" Kayden finally understood what was going on; his face relaxed, and he leaned back again on his seat.

"Yes." Lilian smiled and said to the driver, "Hey, Leo, just take us home, please."

After that, she stuck her tongue out at Kayden playfully and quickly turned her head out of the window with a grin.

Kayden didn't say anything. He took a blanket, and put it on her.

When Lilian turned and wanted to say thank you, he leaned back on his seat and closed his eyes.

Lilian's cheeks warmed, appreciating Kayden's consideration.

When the car stopped at South FC Apartment, Lilian wrapped a blanket around her waist and quickly got out of the vehicle.

After she glanced at the bright red on the beige leather seat, Kayden shook his head , and his eyes were full of soft smiles.

"She is still that little girl after all these years."

Lilian quickly changed her clothes and went downstairs. She was determined to clean the seat she was on, but someone had already cleaned it when she came.

She only smiled sheepishly at Kayden. "I'm sorry," she uttered.

"Why are you so polite?" Kayden asked, his brows raised, then his gaze landed on the bags behind her. "You brought everything things?"

"Yes. I’ve bring enough pads for today." Lilian patted her bag, a ting of warmth spreading to her face as she realized that Kayden had just asked her if she had sanitary pads for her period.

But Kayden coughed and cleared his throat, averting his gaze.

"What I mean was, have you brought your documents for register? Such like IDs and all?"

Lilian felt a bucket of ice being thrown at her. She didn't realize that Kayden was talking about her necessities!

She smiled awkwardly. "Yes, I brought them, too." She always brought her IDs wherever she went. And she already planned that she would go to the bureau to sign a marriage contract with Benjamin.

"Let's go, then." Kayden nodded with satisfaction.

When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lilian got out of the car and stood at the door. Looking at the slogan "Free Marriage, Registration According to Law," her eyes were stained with a touch of disappointment.

An Audi followed behind the Bentley, and a man with glasses got off and helped Kayden out of the car with the driver, Leo, and got him into a wheelchair.

The man with glasses handed Kayden the documents and materials in his hand and asked in a low voice, "Sir Kayden, I know that Lilian might be the girl you're looking for, but it had no further proof that she was that little girl. Besides, how could your sister and her husband didn’t notice that if she was that girl?"

Kayden's slender fingers stroked the dark red booklet, and his deep eyes narrowed slightly. "Jerry, do you believe in the familiarity of smell?"

Jerry shook his head. "Do you mean she has a familiar smell? Do you remember it? That's why you decided to marry her?"

"Of course not." Kayden shook his head and took a meaningful look at Lilian, absent-mindedly standing from a distance, and said. "I like the smell of her. Even if she is not that little girl, it doesn't matter. She's the woman Benjamin should have married."

"Oh, I see." Jerry pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and nodded.

He thought everything was under his boss' control. Still, the girl's impulsive decision to marry immediately made Kayden's effort easier. His boss didn't have to worry about how to steal her from Benjamin anymore.

Kayden doesn't care who Lilian is. What mattered to him the most was that she was the woman he "robbed" of the Holmes family.

"You hesitated to get here, didn't you? That's why you got here late."

A teasing voice came from behind. Lilian quickly took back her thoughts and turned around. "Who hesitated? I'm just waiting for you?"

Then she helped Kayden to the marriage registry.

Although she was not a woman of her words, she couldn't break her promise. She was determined to be Benjamin's aunt-in-law.

The process of getting the marriage certificate was very smooth. Soon, Lilian pushed Kayden out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and they each had a copy of their marriage certificate.

"Mr. Kayden, I wanted to ask you something. I was hesitant initially, but now that we're officially married, I think I can ask you now."

"I can't hear you," Kayden teased as his driver, Leo, helped him get in the car.

"Mr. Kayden," Lilian called loudly. But the man completely ignored her even if they were now inside the vehicle.

"I still can't hear you," he said.

Lilian's lips curled as irritation grew in her chest. "Fine! Honey."

Kayden then smiled, raised his hand, and touched her head lovingly. "Before you ask, there are a few words I want to tell you first."

"Well, tell me." Lilian nodded.

Kayden put down his hand, looked directly in front of the car, and restrained all the expression on his face. "I'm seven years older than you and Benjamin. I recently returned after several years spent abroad. One of the purposes I returned home was to find a woman to marry. I didn't expect to meet you today, but since we met each other's requirements, I think our marriage benefits one another.

I'll be departing once more in a year. It will be up to you if you want to come with me or not. But, you need to know one thing. I have no feeling from the waist down. I can only be your husband in the paper," Kayden said.

Lilian looked at him with a bit of surprise and asked incredulously, "Do you mean we are only bound legally, and we won't be a normal husband and wife? And... Would we get divorced if I don't want to go abroad with you in a year?"

Kayden looked at the surprise flashing in her clear eyes and frowned. "When you announced that you wanted a man to marry, you said you only wanted a straight man. You didn't say you also wanted a normal marriage."
