Chapter 1899 Forced Marriage
The vige chief snorted coldly, "Not someone with a mere ornament, a vase, or a porcin figurine."
"She''s not an ornament," Gareth retorted sternly, barely containing his disdain which visibly irked the
vige chief.
Finding a suitable candidate with a romantic inclination willing to ept the arrangement had been
challenging.

Despite all the persuasions and urges, Gareth remained steadfast.
They circled the same argument, yet it all boiled down to that one sentence.
"I acknowledge my shorings. Therefore, I am unworthy of Anna."
A vortex of anger swirled inside him, and the vige chief was about to explode with rage.
Gareth stared at him and said earnestly, "Before the finals, I already knew this time would be different.
It was Anna who told me."
The vige chief''s fury softened as soon as he heard Anna''s name.
Could it be that Anna informed Gareth about today''s examination?
No, there was no way…
He kept it from everyone to ensure the fairness of thepetition.
Even the referee only learned the test questions right before today''s event, resulting in impressive
oues.
So, how did Gareth know about this?
Gareth smirked and continued, "Princess Anna didn''t mention the content of thepetition. However,
she mentioned a task you assigned her beforehand."
The vige chief''s heart dropped and went cold at the statement. Even though Gareth didn''t explicitly
mention what it was, they shared an unspoken understanding.
The n was for Anna to frame Gareth at an opportune moment, disqualifying him from the uing
matches.
However, the scheme failed due to Elisa''s ingenuity and Anna''s troubled conscience.
As a result, Gareth managed to advance to the finals.
He caught a whiff of something suspicious.
Why would someone resort to hical means to disqualify themselves?
Was it solely to avoid borrowing from Nomadic Odyssey?
On what grounds did the vige chief assume Gareth would advance to the finals?
Ultimately, Elisa snapped Gareth back to reality from the ordeal.
The vige chief had aged, and his age was catching up with him.
Could it have been that he intended to identify a sessor through thispetition?
Someone who could both marry Anna and assume his role.
If so, being an outsider, Gareth would likely not have been a suitable candidate.
If Anna had framed Gareth, he wouldn''t have only lost this opportunity. Their rtionship would have
been entirely severed.
Anna would have been more open to considering other promising young men if she hadn''t insisted on
marrying only him.
The vige chief didn''t anticipate that, at the veryst moment, Anna wouldn''t follow through with his
n.
He thought Anna couldn''t let go of Gareth, which allowed Gareth to go into the finals.
However, it was more than that.
Anna had actually had a change of heart.
She didn''t want to interfere in their rtionship or act against her conscience.
After hearing Gareth''s exnation, the vige chief scowled.
He was still determined to make Gareth yield.
At that moment, Anna pushed the door open and knelt before the vige chief.
"Father, I''ve never asked you for anything in my life. Please don''t push Gareth, and don''t push me into
this, either. Gareth and Elisa love each other deeply, and Elisa is a remarkable person. I won''t be
happy marrying someone who has already given his heart to another. They are destined to leave,"
Anna''s voice quivered as she spoke, tears welling up.
The vige chief''s heart ached as he embraced her.
"Dear child, please stand up and talk," he said, his voice taking on a gentle tone.
Tears stained her face as Anna was gently lifted to her feet by the vige chief. His heart ached as he
looked at her.
He looked up and saw Elisa walking close behind, standing beside Gareth.
They were indeed a match made in heaven.
They locked eyes in a meaningful exchange, confirming their safety. This unspoken connection eased
their anxieties and allowed them to breathe a sigh of relief.
