Chapter 6

The temperature in the wine cellar was only about ten degrees Celsius. There were no windows, so it was hard to tell whether it was day or night.

Sandra's phone was about to run out of battery. The date displayed on the screen showed that there were only three days left before the departure date for the research and experiment exchange program.

Sandra knew she was falling sick. She felt her body burning hot for a moment, but she would be shivering the next second. Her teeth were chattering, but her breath was burning hot. She felt really drowsy as she curled up in a corner.

The ticking sound from the air conditioner in the wine cellar sounded like a thunderstorm in her heart. It gradually drowned her and took away any warmth and hope from her, leaving her in a miserable state.

Sandra's willpower kept her alive. She knew she could not be trapped anymore. She had to go out of there.

Outside the wine cellar, Keith saw how determined Sandra was.

He was afraid that he would really lose Sandra. He started to make wedding arrangements, wanting the wedding to be held as soon as possible.

Keith arranged the wedding to be held at the biggest hall at the top floor of a five-star rated hotel. The scale of the wedding was even bigger than the last time.

After making all the necessary arrangements, Keith went to the Hudson family with betrothal gifts and the ancestral jade bracelet.

Ivy was hugging Irene, sitting on the sofa. They seemed to have forgotten that there was another daughter in the family.

"Mr. and Mrs. Hudson, I'm here for a marriage proposal and to discuss wedding details with you."

Ivy's face blushed instantly. Keith, the man that she liked, had finally come to propose.

"I think this matter shouldn't be delayed any longer. It won't be good for anyone if it's delayed for too long. It'll only jeopardize the relationship between the two families."

Mike smiled. "Keith, we have long regarded you as a member of our family. You'd be our son-in-law sooner or later."

"The wedding is scheduled in three days. I changed the venue to the newly built five-star hotel owned by my family. These are the betrothal gifts from my family. There's thirty million dollars in this bank card, and this is the emerald jade bracelet passed down by my grandmother."

Ivy stared at the bracelet and could not look away. She looked at Irene and reached out to take it to put it on herself.

However, Keith took it away. "This is for Sandra. It's not appropriate for Ivy to wear it."

Ivy's face turned pale.

Mike stood up and questioned, "You still want to marry Sandra?"

Keith was a little surprised. "Of course. Who else will I marry if not Sandra?"

Mike and Irene looked at each other. They both thought that Keith would marry their biological daughter, Ivy. After all, given the status of the Farmer family, it would be better for his biological daughter to marry into the Farmer family.

Ivy covered her face. She then held the fruit knife on the table against her left wrist.

"Keith, do you really want to see me die in front of you?"

Mike and Irene accused, "Keith, can't you see how sincere Ivy's feelings are for you? She's still sick, so please don't provoke her."

Keith stood up and looked at Ivy. "I have tried my best to accommodate Ivy to please you, but I've realized that there's no way for me to satisfy her desires. I won't marry her. Ivy always threatens to commit suicide. We can't just keep accommodating her each time she cries wolf.

"Furthermore, this is a newly customized wedding dress for Sandra. I don't want her to remember any of the unpleasant things that happened the last time."

Keith put the wedding invitation card on the table. "If you're still willing to admit that Sandra is your daughter, you're welcome to attend our wedding."

What Keith really meant was if Mike and Irene still wanted to have a relationship with the Farmer family, they had to acknowledge Sandra as their daughter.

The sound of Ivy smashing things was heard behind him as he walked out, accompanied by her crying and shouting.

Keith left without looking back. He was completely determined and knew what he wanted. He imagined how Sandra would look like in the wedding dress.

He would never allow any more accidents to happen. He would not allow Sandra to be wronged even if Ivy were to make a fuss.

Keith was a little delighted. He had figured out how to coax Sandra. He did not know that he had no chance anymore.

Sandra was locked in the wine cellar for two days. Keith asked the housekeeper about Sandra.

The housekeeper replied respectfully, "Every day, someone goes to deliver food to Ms. Hudson, but the food is taken out the same way it was delivered. She still hasn't figured things out."

"It doesn't matter. We'll just send her to the wedding venue on the day itself."

Keith needed to manage Sandra's temper. How would she be able to manage such a big family after marrying into the Farmer family?

The housekeeper looked worried. "The temperature of the wine cellar is very cold. Ms. Hudson's body may not be able to bear it."

"Adjust the temperature back to normal room temperature then."

"What about the wine in the wine cellar..."

"Just do it. It's just some wine. They're nothing compared to Sandra."

A helper ran over at that moment.

"Mr. Farmer, it's bad. Ms. Hudson has fainted."
