Be The President’s Wife by Chance - Season 1 Episode 4

As soon as he finished speaking.

Halle was immediately stunned.

Cayden’s eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the man in astonishment.

Halle’s heart skipped a beat.

After a long time, she opened her mouth in a daze. “What… did you say?”

“Miss Nelson,” the man’s eyes were dark, and a mysterious glimmer shone within them. “I’m sure you understand what I’m implying. As

recompense, I will wed you.”

Halle was confused for a second.

The man seemed to see her expression and continued, “Miss Nelson, don’t be so quick to turn down this offer. From what I understand, you just experienced a great deal of embarrassment at the wedding today. In a few days, your reputation will be known far and wide. With your current standing in the Nelson family, your future prospects may be even more difficult.”

At the mention of this, Halle’s body stiffened.

“It has nothing to do with you.”

The man looked at her with a gentle gaze.

“But I have.”

Halle looked up.

She heard him say, “If you wed me, no one will recall how awkward the bride was at the nuptials. They will only chuckle at Ethan for not attending the wedding and losing his spouse.”

“And then you can leave Nelson family as you wish.”

His voice was hushed and measured, as if he was reciting an enchanting incantation. “I can assist you with whatever you desire.”

“How is it?”

The ward was so quiet that one could hear the soft breathing.

Halle’s heart trembled violently.

Her heart was beating very fast.

But she tried her best to maintain her calm.

“Since you’re aware of all my details, you should comprehend that tying the knot with me is not advantageous to you.”

“That’s why I said, this is compensation.”

The man paused for a moment. “Or, you could interpret it as… I’m in dire need of a wife right now.”

Halle clenched her fingers.

Or?

Should she agree?

If she agreed, would there be a home for her?

The golden rays of the setting sun shone in from outside the window. Outside the door, the untainted clouds were swirling.

A gentle breeze brushed across her eyebrows, warming her with its caress. Her mind, muddled for a long time, was a little dizzy, and she somehow heard a voice that was her own.

“Okay.”

As soon as she said this, the man’s thin lips curved into an imperceptible

arc.

“Since that’s the case, then it’s settled.”

Halle suddenly came back to her senses. “I…”

He raised his eyebrows slightly and said firmly, “My secretary just recorded our entire conversation. Miss Nelson, you can’t renege on your promise.”

Cayden politely nodded at her, his professional habit of recording being a basic accomplishment when His Excellency was negotiating.

The man rose to his feet and murmured, “I’m a bit occupied at the moment. I’ll have someone look after you. When you’re discharged, I’ll come and get you.”

With that, he turned around and walked towards the door.

Halle looked at his back and called out to him, “Wait.”

The man stopped in his tracks.

His dark eyes fell on her, his expression deep and suspicious, yet also containing a sense of oppression. “Huh?”

Halle could not help but feel suffocated.

She opened her mouth slightly. “But… but I don’t know your name yet.” The man chuckled.

He walked in front of her, bent down, and looked at her at the same height. His dark eyes were full of her reflection –

“Jimmy, Jimmy Harrison.”

The light outside the window silently cut out his straight and elegant silhouette.

He was noble, gentlemanly, and calm.

Time froze at this moment.

Halle blinked in a daze.

Jimmy left the ward.

Cayden followed behind him as the phone rang and he received a text message from the driver, who had been waiting outside for a long time. [When will His Excellency come out?]

[What transpired exactly? Why did His Excellency request that I hit the young girl for no apparent reason? Despite His Excellency’s capabilities, he never inflicted harm on the blameless.]

[Not to mention that she is a commoner…]

Cayden recalled the thrilling conversation in the sick room and replied, [That is not a commoner. In the future, she will be the wife of His Excellency…]

The driver on the other side: [???]

Jimmy suddenly paused.

“What, what happened?” Cayden almost bumped into his back.

Jimmy said, “In the future, in front of her, call me Mister.”

Cayden, “…Noted.”

It seemed that His Excellency still wanted to hide his identity.

11:51

That made sense.

Otherwise, it would scare her.

Halle stayed alone in the ward, her mind full of thoughts. She found it hard to process what happened just now.

Now.

As she became calmer…

She felt it more absurd.

She regretted it.

However, his aura was so strong and cold that, should she go back on her words…

She was a little annoyed.

This frustration continued for the whole day.

In the evening.

When the television was switched on, the entertainment channel was airing the news of the day. The host spoke with enthusiasm, “The marriage between the Nelson and Stopford families and the groom fleeing the ceremony in public has caused a huge stir. Let us hear what everyone has to say about this.”

“It’s so romantic! Who wouldn’t want a man who publicly declares his love for you in such a rebellious manner?”

“I believe the man acted inappropriately. He should have been honest with her about his lack of love sooner. Instead, he chose to publicly break off the engagement, leaving the bride in a very unfortunate situation.” “I heard that Holly and Young Master Stopford were childhood sweethearts. Isn’t Halle the mistress? I can only say that she deserves it…”

Halle turned off the TV.

Just as she was about to lie down and rest, a person rushed in from outside the ward.

It was Sadie.

“Halle, why did you take off without saying anything? Why didn’t you bring your phone? I’ve been searching for you all day. Do you know how anxious I was about you?” she asked urgently.

11:51

“I’m sorry…” Halle felt guilty.

“I’m glad you’re okay now. Where’s the person who did this?” Sadie sighed with relief as she looked at her.

Behind the castle was the monitoring blind spot.

It took her a lot of effort before she heard rumors that she had

encountered a car accident.

She was so scared that her soul almost left her body.

“I’m fine, so I let him go first.” Halle deliberately hid the extra part.

Sadie sighed, sat down in front of the bed, and handed her mobile phone to her. “The wedding feast has finished and the attendees have already gone home. Your parents and Ethan called, but I didn’t pick up.”

Halle hummed. There were ten missed calls from Abel Booth, one from Timothy, and six from Ethan.

She put her mobile phone aside and had no intention of calling back.

Sadie thought for a while, thought for a while, and asked, “You and Ethan…”

“He and I have already ended.”

Sadie was stunned.

s probably

There no one in this world who knew better than Sadie how much Halle liked Ethan.

She had given up on studying abroad for him.

She had been absent from the most important dance competition for him.

She even gave up dancing and studied jewelry design instead for him.

She dreamed of marrying him.

She wanted to have a home with him.

Her wish was clearly about to come true.

… But he did not come.

Four years of love, a dismal ending.

And within just one day.

After the news of the groom escaping from the marriage spread, she

would become the laughing stock of the entire upper circle, and even the

entire country.

At that time, everyone would understand that Holly was the lucky one. She would never be able to outshine Holly.

What was the weight of this humiliation?

“I can’t change what you decide. But I wish you well. You will be happier if you leave him in the future.” Sadie’s eyes were red.

Then, Sadie accompanied her and said a lot.

It was mainly for comforting her.

In the end, she even took out her cellphone. “I got two hundred fine fellas in my contacts. I’m gonna call ‘em all up with one ring! Take your pick!” Halle smiled and said nothing.

It was late at night and Sadie was ready to leave.

“Is it okay for you to stay alone?”

“Head back. You have a job to do tomorrow. Make sure to get a good night’s sleep.”

“Then I will come to see you tomorrow night.”

“Okay.”

After Sadie left.

Halle planned to rest.

Because she slept for a long time during the day, she did not fall asleep quickly.

The phone rang again.

Ethan called again.

This time.

She picked up the call.

“Halle. Why haven’t you picked up the phone? How are things on your end?” Ethan asked anxiously.

Halle glanced at her bandaged calf, her voice still very soft. “I’m fine.” “That’s good.” Ethan heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m still in the hospital in Munty. Holly is still unconscious.”

“I’m sorry for what happened. When I get back, I’ll give you an even

grander wedding.”

Halle did not say anything.

She held her phone and remained silent for a long time.

Ethan was uncertain and spoke again, “Halle, Holly grew up with me after all. You can understand me, right?”

Yes.

Growing up together.

They grew up together.

What was she?

Halle looked sideways through the clear window of the hospital and stared out the window –

The city had just rained yesterday.

Occasionally, white pigeons would chirp cheerfully as they flew over the clear blue sky, while the ground below remained wet.

Today was a good day.

When she woke up in the morning, she was also full of joy.

She paused.

Her voice was a little distant. “Do you remember… what you said to me when you proposed to me?”

Her voice was as tender as water, soft and lingering.

That day in the theater of Imperial University, he held a bunch of stars in his hands and half knelt in front of her.

He was so handsome and good–looking.

The surrounding students were all dazzled.

“I gave you the stars in the sky, but I still feel that the stars in the sky are inferior to you.”

“Among the stars in the sky and all the girls on earth, you are the only one I care.”

Ethan was silent.

The air was silent on both sides.

After a while.

A voice suddenly came from the other side of the line. It was her younger brother, Zane Nelson. “Ethan, hurry up! My sister’s awake. Dad and Mom have gone to get a doctor. Come and take a look!”

“Halle, I am now…” Ethan said to the phone.

A soft and gentle voice sounded, “Ethan.”

Halle called his name.

Ethan was stunned.

Halle smiled with disappointment in her eyes. “I suddenly realized that I don’t like the stars in the sky that much anymore.”

The air became quiet.

Halle looked out of the window with a relieved smile.

“There won’t be any more weddings.”

“We’re done.”

Ethan’s entire body trembled!

Like a clap of thunder, his throat seemed to tighten and he suddenly frowned, tightening his grip on his phone.

But just as he was about to speak.

Halle had already hung up.

Ethan called back.

However, he could not get through.

“Ethan, what are you doing? Come on…” Zane urged from behind.

Ethan pursed his lips and could only give up temporarily.

After hanging up the phone, Halle went back to sleep.

She had a dream.

In her dream, she returned to Rowan Town. Her adoptive mother stroked. her head kindly and said slowly, “My girl has grown up and is going to marry someone.”

She threw herself into her mother’s arms and told her that she would not

marry anyone.

She looked up and saw nothing but devastation, and no one in the world loved her.
