Daddy the Miracle Medic -
Chapter 286 I'Ve Used You Up
Chapter 286 I've Used You Up
During his youth, Lachlan lost his parents and later experienced his daughter's illness and wife's betrayal.
Having tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships and the harsh reality of society, Lachlan had developed a certain obsession with love. For him, this "vow" was not just a ceremony but also a promise that he cannot easily make.
Forever... Can he have it for himself?
Within three years, if he cannot have the strength to compete with the ancient Willis family, Nora will die! And he himself will surely perish from this world! "I..." Lachlan looked at Miranda's beautiful eyes fixed on him and said solemnly, "I will cherish every day I spend with my wife."
The emcee was taken aback by these words. All he had to say was "I do," why did he add that sentence?
However, when Miranda heard these words, her stunning face showed a strong sense of ridicule.
Looking at Lachlan's eyes filled with disappointment, disdain and even resentment...
Cherish every day together?
Ha ha... Who knew if one day they'll get bored with each other or fall in love elsewhere?
A mist rose in Miranda's beautiful eyes as pictures sent by Theo kept flashing through her mind.
With a crash...
The image of this man in her heart seemed fragmented into pieces!
At this moment, Miranda's emotions plummeted to their lowest point!
In the next second, she gave Lachlan an icy glance before she could no longer suppress her disappointment, heartache and anger; she turned around abruptly, leaving the stage and running out towards outside the wedding hall!
At that moment, standing on stage and getting married to Lachlan made her feel nauseous!
She ran out of the wedding hall directly into public restroom on top floor.
She looked at herself in mirror and couldn't hold back tears any longer; although originally planning to endure it all until after marrying Lachlan but facing questions from the emcee onstage made everything crumble for Miranda emotionally.
Inside the wedding hall...
The bride running out caused chaos throughout as everyone looked bewildered!
Emmanuel and Cara were panicked while Mason wore an expression full of suspicion!
The guests were all puzzled looking at each other, wondering what happened?!
Lachlan was also stunned, his face changing constantly. After coming back to his senses, he quickly said to everyone, "Miranda may not be feeling well. I'll go check on her. You guys don't have to wait. Eat and drink if you want..." With that, Lachlan hurriedly chased after Miranda and ran out.
At this point, Mason also wanted to follow them out but was stopped by Emmanuel and Cara.
"What are you getting involved for? Come back!" Emmanuel scolded him impatiently.
Cara glared at her son and told him to stay put. They were not sure what was going on with their daughter but they knew it wasn't appropriate for them to get involved at this time.
Tap tap tap...
After Lachlan caught up with Miranda in the public restroom, she quickly wiped away her tears before turning around coldly towards him.
"Honey, what's wrong? Is it because I hesitated when answering the emcee's question earlier?" Lachlan chuckled bitterly as he tried explaining himself.
However, Miranda interrupted him coldly, "You don't need to explain! I already know!"
The next second, she took a deep breath and tried calming herself down, "It's nothing really. I just felt a little nauseous earlier so I didn't want to throw up on stage! But now let's go back! We have a wedding reception we need to finish no matter what so our guests won't laugh at us!"
As Lachlan looked at Miranda in front of him, suddenly there seemed like an invisible wall between them that he couldn't penetrate through. What happened? Was it because of his hesitation earlier or something else?
Lachlan couldn't figure out Miranda's thoughts for a moment.
"Oh yeah! After this wedding is over, let's get divorced in a few days!"
"When the time comes, replace an excuse and cooperate with me explaining things over my parents."
Miranda continued speaking indifferently without any emotional fluctuations in her tone which made Lachlan feel completely dejected as he asked with difficulty, "Why? Can you give me one reason why?" "We were doing fine before weren't we?"
"I can feel that there is something between us!" For a moment, Lachlan found it hard to accept looking at the goddess CEO who seemed close yet far away from him right now...
"You're wrong! We were only in a fake marriage, weren't we? I only came to you to disgust Isa! Now that Isa's father has even come to attend our wedding, he won't dare have any thoughts about me anymore. So, your task is complete! I used you! Thank you for everything you've done for me, but... that's it!" Miranda spoke coldly and with an expressionless face as if she was discussing a business deal.
It seemed like there was no emotion involved at all. However, only she knew why her heart hurt so much when she said those words. It was painful enough that she felt like she couldn't breathe. These words were like a double-edged sword that also pierced Lachlan's heart. He looked at Miranda and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but ended up turning into a bitter self-mockery smile instead.
"Is that so? Am I of no use anymore?" Lachlan didn't think Miranda would be this kind of person, but he didn't know what else to say now. Should he try and salvage their relationship? Maybe it would be better this way. They could go their separate ways while their feelings weren't too deep yet.
After a moment, Miranda took Lachlan's arm again and returned to the wedding hall with a charming smile on her face as if nothing had happened. However, her eyes lacked some luster.
"I'm sorry! My body wasn't feeling well just now; please forgive my behavior!" After taking the stage again, Miranda apologized gracefully.
The wedding continued normally after that point; however, the two main characters' moods had already changed drastically from before. Emmanuel, Cara and Mason were all filled with suspicion while some guests secretly wondered what had happened between Lachlan and Miranda before the ceremony began.
