Chapter 223 The Extreme Conditions

"No!" Justine was kinda angry in the room, "I'm fine with the first four conditions but I can't accept the fifth one. Manuel is so badly wounded. The doctor said he would have to stay in hospital for at least half a month. How can he take it if you hold the wedding in a week?"

"I have made my decision." Susan said firmly, "I can't guarantee I won't regret it as time goes by. You all know why I agreed to marry Manuel!" "OK." Manuel agreed.

At that moment, Susan still couldn't help to turn around and glance at Manuel, then she bit the bullet and refused to compromise.

Manuel knew clearly that Susan put forward all these extreme conditions only to embarrass him and show him that she cared none about him.

"I said no!" Justine was also determined. “You have to prepare the wedding again within a week. Besides, you can't even get off the bed by then. I'm afraid you can't sit well on the wheelchair!"

"It doesn't matter. He can lay on the bed and I don't mind marrying him that way. Anyway, I'm not looking forward to the wedding. Not a little bit." Susan said indifferently.

"Even so, you should consider Manuel's health condition a little. He's been so badly wounded because of you! Can you make a compromise for him?"

"If I didn't compromise, do you think I would agree to marry him?" Susan said sarcastically.

Seriously, Justine was really mad at that time. She would never agree on their marriage if Manuel hadn't been so badly wounded or if Manuel hadn't insisted marrying Susan. "Mum."Manuel said, "The doctor said I would be fine. I believe I can sit on the wheelchair well in a week. Don't worry. I know my health condition better than anyone else." "You've lost yourself in Susan!" Justine said with disappointment. She couldn't understand why Manuel was so obsessed with Susan.

Manuel had always been a sweet and independent boy and she didn't have to worry much about him, but he'd given up his principles and even could do anything for Susan.

"Take your time to discuss it, and let me know. But I don't have much patience. If I didn't hear from you within today, our wedding would... "No need to discuss it. We'll get married on the day as you wished." said Manuel.

Still, Susan got mixed feelings. Actually, she was trying to make it hard for Manuel on purpose, but she wasn't happy at all when she embarrassed him.

Anyway, it meant she was gonna marry Manuel one week later.

She bore with it again and said, "Make the wedding as simple as possible. I don't want something like wedding procession or whatever. Just go to the church and perform the ceremony. And, no more than 50 guests will be invited to the wedding party."

"Are you kidding me?" Edward disagreed, "I've got hundreds of business partners. Of course we should invite more than 50 guests!"

"It's my wedding. There's nothing to do with your business partners!"

Edward and Justine were choked with Susan's words again.

"If you want to invite all your friends and business partners, hold a divorce party. It's your party, and you can invite as many guests as you want."

Edward thought he would fall sick sooner or later if Susan kept pissing him off like this.

"No problem. No more than 50 guests." Manuel gave in one more time.

Susan glanced at Manuel, and believed some day Manuel would get to know that he wouldn't be happy in their marriage.

She turned around to get out of the room. Once again, her eyes were red with tears while she was about to go out. She knew that she had no more wriggle room now!

She left the hospital, got in a cab and went home. Her eyes were red and swollen, and swelled with tears. But she tried hard to hold the tears back, since she thought it wasn't worth of it to weep for Manuel. "Young lady, are you OK? Don't lose hope no matter what kind of disease you have. Be positive! The medical technology is developed today and you'll be fine if you get the proper treatment." The middle-aged driver said with sincere words and earnest wishes.

Susan glanced at the driver. So, he must think she'd got cancer! But his comforting words worked. He was right that she would be fine.

She thought she just needed to go through this period of time first, and that she could go back to her normal life as before when Manuel finally found that they weren't a nice couple.

Then she wiped the tears and called Harrison.

"Hello, Susan."Harris was lying on the bed then.

She even didn't know how she got to her bed. As far as she could remember, she came back from the hospital. Then...she received the call from Susan.

"I'm getting married to Manuel." She said it as if it was the end of the world.

"Congratulations!" Harrison was calm and peaceful, instead. After all, she'd foreseen it. Susan married Manuel in the previous life as well but it wasn't a happy ending.

1 feel bad." Susan choked with sobs.

Harrison heard it but couldn't do much to help. She couldn't tell Susan much then, but could only do everything she could to help Susan change

her life

"I don't know what this marriage is gonna end up..." Susan seemed to pause and add, "I'm afraid I'll be a bad woman."

"No, you won't." Harrison said, "Later you'll know who's the best to you in the world and whom you love the most."

"Manuel might be the best one to me, but he's definitely not the one that I love the most."

"Susan..."

"OK. I gotta go." Susan said, down in spirit, "I don't want to hear anything more on Manuel today."

"OK. Pull yourself together. Trust me. Everything will be fine." Harrison pursed her lips and said. "Yeah, I see."

Susan hung up the phone.

Harrison thought about it and called Manuel.

"Hi, Harrison." Manuel's voice sounded as gentle as usual.

"Susan told me that she's made up her mind to marry you."

"Yea, Manuel added, "I did it in a mean and harsh way."

"At least you got what you wanted."

"Don't you hate me?" All in all, Manuel was surprised.

"Nope." Harrison told him straightforwardly. "And I hope you can win Susan's heart and love. Never give up on her or stop loving her."

"I'll do my best."

"And, congratulations!"

"Thanks."

Harrison put down the phone, stretched herself and got ready to get off the bed.

"Harrison." Suddenly, a voice came into her ears.

It had scared the hell out of Harrison at that moment. She turned around to look at the man lying on the couch. Had he been in her room all the time? How come she hadn't noticed it? She couldn't help to get furious and said, "Oscar, I was talking on the phone! You shouldn't have overheard it!"

"What! Are you cheating on me? What's problem with it?" Oscar said lightly.
