Chapter 1
“If we get hitched, you gotta quit your job and stay home. Take care of me, and pop out a healthy baby
boy within a year!! don’t want a girl, cause girls need more parenting!”
The man said with a smug grin.
Ellinor Mendoza looked at her blind date, a balding, chubby man in his forties.
Her stepmother, Tracy, must have wanted her to settle for a less desirable man, hence the pressure to
meet this unsuitable
date.
The middle–aged man had initially criticized Ellinor’s makeup, but seeing her slim figure and decent
demeanor, he figured she was quite the catch.
He then asked, “How tall are you?”
Ellinor, bored stiff, stirred her coffee nonchntly and replied softly, “5‘ 6“.”
The middle–aged man seemed pleased. “Hmm, your height is just about right for me. I’m about 5‘ 7“.
You might need to stand on your toes when we kiss. But no worries, I can bend down a bit for you!”
Ellinor’s eyelid twitched slightly. “Sir, I think you might be misunderstood. A man who needs a woman
to stand on her toes to kiss him should be somewhat taller than you.”

The middle–aged man frowned, displeased. “What do you mean?”
Just then, a tall and imposing man walked into the coffee shop, radiating a strong aura.
Ellinor nced up and noticed the man. She got up and walked over to him.
“Excuse me, handsome. Could youe over here for a second?”
The magnificent man’s gaze turned cold. Before he could decline, Ellinor grabbed his tie, stood on her
toes, and nted a precise kiss on his lips.
“See? You should at least be as tall as him to deserve a woman standing on her toes for a kiss.”
“You…”
The middle–aged man was embarrassed and angry, pointing at Ellinor
“You’re so audacious, kissing a stranger like that! I will tell the matchmaker about this and ruin your
reputation. You can forget about finding a date in future!”
Ellinor scoffed. This was exactly what she wanted.
After the middle–aged man stormed off angrily, Ellinor waved at the tall man who had helped her.
“Thank you for your help, sir! If fate allows, we’ll meet again. Goodbye!”
She turned to leave, but her wrist was suddenly gripped by a cold, strong hand!
A deep, icy voice reached her ears.
“You kissed me, and you think you can just walk away?”
She felt an overwhelming pressure, and looked up to a handsome face suddenly appearing in her line
of sight.
His face was stunning!
His hair was elegantlybed, his features were sharp, and his expression was calm. He gave the
impression he could
handle any situation with ease.
There was also a hint of danger!
Ellinor thought to herself, “I was so focused on getting rid of that middle–aged man and picking the
tallest man nearby to kiss, I didn’t pay attention to his face. Now that I look closely, he’s unusually
handsome and has a unique aura!”
Ellinor frowned slightly. “…What are you going to do?”
The man stared at Ellinor in silence, his lips moved as if to say something. Just then, a man in a ck
suit standing next to him received a call. He approached them with a serious expression and reported,
“Mr. nchet, there’s a problem! Ms.
Sophia’s flight has been forced to return due to bad weather. She can’t make it back today, and your
engagement party is tonight. What should we do?”
The man’s brows furrowed. This engagement party was a matter of life and death for his grandfather!
His grandfather had been urging him to get married as he was nearing thirty. Recently, his grandfather
had a heart attack. due to the stress and needed a heart transnt. However, he had made a strict
deration that he would only agree to the operation if Theo got engaged today and married in three
days.
Sophia was originally the woman he had found to appease his grandfather, but now she couldn’t make
it…
At this moment, Ellinor, whose arm was still gripped tightly by the man, said impatiently, “Hey? Sir, is
there anything else? If not, could you let go of me?”
Theo nchet stared at Ellinor intensely, curiosity filling his eyes. He suddenly chuckled, “Since this
lady came to me herself, let her rece Sophia!”
Collin was taken aback, his eyes filled with disgust as he looked at Ellinor.
Her makeup was heavy, her hair was messy, and she dressed like a troublemaker. How was this
woman suitable for Mr. nchet?
“Mr. nchet, isn’t thisdy a bit….”
“Her!”
Collin dared not to object any further. “Yes, Mr. nchet!”
Ellinor felt something was wrong and asked warily, “What do you mean by “Her?” Sir, what are you
nning to do to me?”
The man looked at her arrogantly and said coldly.
“I want you to bemitted to me!”
Ellinor’s face was filled with surprise..
“… Are you joking, sir? I just gave you a peck, and you want me to bemitted to you? I just gave
you my first kiss, and I didn’t even ask you to be in a rtionship with me!”
The man’s eyebrows raised slightly. “First kiss?”
Ellinor sighed regretfully, “Yes! That was my first kiss ever, my first in 20 years!”
This woman sure had character!
Theo’s expression turned cold, his voice apathetic. “Take her away!”
Next thing she knew, Ellinor was led away by several men in ck suits and put into a luxurious ck
car….
Pearl Moon Mansion, the most luxurious urban mansion in the country.
Today, Theo of the nchet family, was holding a grand engagement party here. The banquet hall was
filled with celebrities, enjoying the food and drinks.
“I wonder which luckydy gets to be Mr. nchet’s woman!”
“She must be some high–bred, beautiful and elegantdy! No ordinary chick could catch Mr. nchet’s
eye!”
“Look, Mr. nchet is here! He’s so hot….”
“Hold on, is that girl with Mr. nchet his rumored fiancée? She looks a bit…”
Not what you expected?
Under everyone’s gaze, the eldest son of the nchet family, Theo, led an unusual girl to the center
stage of the banquet.
The host of the engagement party stepped forward, picked up the microphone and began to speak.
“Ladies and gentlemen, good evening and wee to Mr. nchet’s engagement party!”
Ellinor was forced to stand on stage, feeling super nervous and helpless!
Yes, she had done some excessive things to him without his permission She knew she screwed up,
and he could totally call the cops on her. She’d take whatever punishment thew would throw at her!
But she never in a million years expected this guy to be so shameless.
To drag her all the way here… for an engagement?!
