A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 407 A Tempest at the Wedding (Part Two)

Linda and Bun were chatting happily. They were talking about things in their past, amusing anecdotes,

and what kind of clothes Linda's baby should wear after it was born. Linda felt at ease at this moment.

Today was her wedding day. She didn't want to think about other matters. She just wanted to enjoy

herself at this particular moment.

After a while, Anna came in.

The wedding ceremony started at 6:18 PM, which was an auspicious moment according to the Chinese

almanac. Since Linda was pregnant, she would easily get hungry. She usually had her dinner at around

half past five. Now, it was almost a quarter to six. Linda was really starving.

When Linda saw the box in Anna's hand, she felt even hungrier. She could almost feel her mouth

watering.

"My Lady, you must be hungry. I've brought you something to eat. You're pregnant now, so you should

eat on time, " said Anna.

Linda and Bun might not get the chance to eat dinner after the beginning of the ceremony. They

needed to go through the whole ceremony process. They wouldn't have time to eat anything before 8

or 9 PM, so Anna brought them something to eat first.

"You're the best!" said Linda.

"Your wedding is important, as well as your baby." Anna covered her mouth as she tried to stifle her

giggles. She opened the box and put it in front of Linda.

Linda hurried to eat her dinner. The ceremony would start in less than thirty minutes. Her lipstick was

smudged because she ate so fast. She needed to fix her makeup after she finished eating. A?

Linda was wearing a traditional wedding dress, a cheongsam, with a matching phoenix coronet. Her

lipstick color was bright red which brought out the beauty of the cheongsam. She looked much more

beautiful with her glossy, flaming red lips.

"Oh right, My Lady. There is a package sent to you from Australia. It has been sent to the Nalan clan. I

happened to be there for some errands today, so I brought it for you." Anna took out a small black box

from her pocket. The box was fully wrapped in plastic. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

"Australia?" Linda couldn't recall anyone she knew in Australia.

"What's in the box? Could you open it for me?" said Linda.

Anna nodded. She found a pair of scissors nearby and cut open the plastic bag. After opening the box,

she found a dragon ring and a letter inside it.

Linda was familiar with the ring. She was wearing it before Amy took it from her in the abandoned

warehouse. She never got to see the ring again since then.

The signature in the letter was of Bob Qi's.

Linda started reading the letter.

She could feel his sincereness, while she was reading it. "Miss Xia, I hope everything is all right with

you. We found this ring when we collected Amy's belongings. I have seen it on your finger before. I

think it belongs to you. Now, I am returning it to you. I just want to say sorry again to you on behalf of

Amy. We wish you and Charles a long and happy life together."

Linda felt a little upset after she finished reading the letter. Death was inevitable for all of us. But Amy,

their daughter, died at a young age. It was sad that someone lost their child in their old ages because

nothing was worse than burying the young. Although Amy had done some horrible things to Linda, she

still felt a little sad for her death.

But death could not be reversed. Linda stopped herself from thinking about it any longer and put the

ring on her finger. Then, she continued eating her dinner.

Linda was really hungry at that time. They had been preparing for the wedding since noon. She hadn't

gotten any chance to get something to eat until now. A pregnant woman should eat more to get enough

nutrition for her baby since she was eating for two. Linda was eating so fast that it worried Anna. What

if she choked on her food?

Pregnant woman should be more careful in everything.

Anna wanted to stop Linda from eating too fast, so she said, "My Lady, you should not eat this quick.

No one would take the food away from you."

"I need to hurry up because I have to fix my makeup after I finish. We don't have enough time. The

ceremony starts at 6:18 PM, right?"

"Yes, but your makeup artists are professionals. They will fix your makeup in no time."

Unfortunately, what Anna was worried about did happen. Linda choked on her food. She wanted to

have some soup to help her swallow, but it seemed that Anna didn't bring any soup with her today.

Linda thought about the glass of water which was brought to her by the makeup artists, so she pointed

to the glass of water on the table and said, "Anna, could you get me the glass of water over there,

please?"

"Okay, slow down and chew properly."

Anna turned around and walked to the table at once. She picked up the glass of water and was about

to hand it to Linda. Before Linda reached for the glass, Anna gave a glance at the water.

"My Lady, the water is cold now. Let me help you get a glass of warm water, " Anna said, frowning.

Linda looked at Anna doubtfully. Even though the water was cold, it should be okay if she just drank a

little. Besides, it was already May. The water wouldn't be too cold to drink, so she told Anna, "It's okay. I

won't drink a lot."

"No, you still shouldn't, My Lady. You can't drink cold water. Just wait. I'll go and get you another glass

of water right away."

After Anna finished speaking, she took the glass of water with her and walked to the door in a hurry.

Linda found it odd, but she didn't insist.

Since Linda and Anna had spent a lot of time together. Linda could tell that Anna was trying to stop her

from drinking the glass of water deliberately. Anna must have noticed something that Linda didn't. Was

there something wrong with the water?

There were several makeup artists and their assistants in the room, so Linda didn't say another word.

Before Anna walked out of the room, she glanced at Bun. Bun didn't understand what Anna meant by

giving her that glance, but she knew that Anna did it on purpose.

Bun figured out that Anna might be trying to tell her to protect Linda well.

But before Anna could walk out of the room, she felt the cold metal of the gun against her head.

"Where are you going?"

Linda and Bun were shocked. Were the other people in this room their enemies?

Linda and Bun also felt something cold against their heads at the same time. It was quite obvious that

there were guns behind them.

"Tie them up, "

Ordered a woman. It seemed that she was the leader. Her name was Ada, one of the makeup artists.

They were all from a professional company. Nobody expected such an incident.

"Who are you?" Linda turned around and asked.

"You don't need to know who we are, Lady Linda. We are doing it for money. We would have taken you

away quietly if you had drunk the water, but you didn't. I have no choice but to do this."

There was a smile on Ada's face. It looked like she was just chatting with them like they were friends.

Even though Ada was smiling, Linda could tell that there was something bothering her from the slight

frown on her face. Was Ada waiting for someone, or was she disappointed about not getting

something?

In fact, Linda had noticed some of her small but unusual behavior. She recalled that Ada had looked at

her watch for several times since she entered the room.

'Maybe she is waiting for someone? Or...' Linda wondered.
