Lazily Yours.

Sealey Family

"Marry a mere maid?" Mr. Sealey couldn't help but yelled when he heard the craziest idea he ever heard. "Is she crazy?"

"Honey, I don't understand why she would insist that Harry marry someone like this maid when we could easily pay her."

"Call her and tell her we are going to pay for the damages! Tsk." Mr. Sealey thought Gabi visited his wife because she wanted to get close to her. After all, his wife was known because of the dresses that she wore during events. Actresses would do everything to get close to his wife because they wanted her to introduce them to some designers abroad! Who would have thought that Gabrielle Sutton was actually a malicious woman who wanted to ruin his family? "And Harry… are you sure that someone else schemed this?"

"Yes, father. I am not that drunk, however, I felt dizzy, and a bit numbed. So I asked Alfons if he could take me to the guest room, as I needed to rest. However, he told me that he needed to do something first and told me that Gabi's room was the guest room. I didn't think that he would do this to me."

"Hmph! Then do you think Alfons Sutton actually schemed against you?"

"I think Alfons… didn't want to scheme against Harry intentionally. I believe he wanted to scheme against Gabrielle. However, some accidents happen and now we are in this mess."

"Tsk. Did you already call her?"

"I cannot reach her number.' His wife answered. "I sent her a text and told her we wanted to negotiate."

"That woman… actually dared to do this to my family?"

"Father, what are we going to do now? If she releases the article to the media, then… my name is ruined!"

"Honey, Harry is right. If the article gets released, no one would care if it's the truth or not. They would immediately bully our son. What are we going to do now?"

"Let me think." Against Gabi, Mr.Sealey and the whole Sealey family weren't that defenseless. However, Gabi had the backing of the Ren Family. And becoming an enemy of the Ren Family is practically like trying to attack one country! "That woman is not known in the upper echelons. She shouldn't have enough influence. However, because of her grandfather, people still respect her and send her invites to Galas and private tea parties.

But Gabrielle Sutton never actually joined these parties.

Still, people respected her because of her late father and the Ren Family. "She doesn't have any social media presence. Not even a single photo online! This woman… "

"She replied."

"Huh? What did she say?"

"This— "

"What?" he walked towards his wife and snatched her phone. Then she started reading the text message. Soon, he realized that it wasn't actually a text message but an image of an article. Then a text followed.

[I took a Screenshot of the article that will be sent to the media later. Do you think the title is attractive enough?]

"Damn! Damn this woman!"

"What is it?" Harry looked at the phone and almost immediately, his face turned ugly. "This— "

"Look at those bruises! And someone really dared to take a picture of you while you were in bed with that maid?"

"What?"

"This is embarrassing Harry! You — How dare you to embarrass the Sealey Family like this?"

"Father… I— "

"Marry the maid! Since she treasures this maid too much, they marry her!"

"What? Father, I have a girlfriend. What about Riri? You know that I love her!"

"Keep her for now. We can always negotiate with that maid after your marriage and pay her enough to agree to a divorce. We just needed to satisfy Gabrielle Sutton's conditions. She didn't say we cannot divorce that woman."

"But— "

"If your woman loves you, then she would understand that you only wanted to protect your family name." Mrs. Sealey said. "I agree with your decision. You secretly marry the maid. There is no need for any extravagant wedding. A secret marriage will do. She is but a maid. She doesn't deserve to have a luxurious wedding. And she can stay at the other house. At the back of the mansion."

"This is a good idea. Yes, she can indeed stay in that house. No need to spend some nights with her and to avoid any complications you should make her drink some anti-pregnancy herbs just in case, she would try to scheme against our son."

And just like that, the Sealey family decided that Harry is going to marry Aren. At ten in the evening, Gabi received a confirmation that Harry would marry Aren.

"Miss? Is there something wrong?" Aren asked Gabi. Right now, Gabi took the time to see Aren and check for the condition of her body.

"He agreed to marry you. I will talk to them tomorrow. However, do not expect a Cinderella love story. This isn't a fairytale." Gabi said. "I am sure that they would do everything to separate you and ostracize you from the family. Meaning, there will be no grand wedding and they are going to let you stay somewhere else. Maybe in a village somewhere. They would give you everything but treat you like a prisoner. They would keep this marriage a secret too."

Aren nodded.

"It seems that you are already expecting this?" Gabi asked. "However, don't worry. I will agree to give them a copy of the evidence that I have against them but I will not delete my own copy."

"But what if they asked you to delete it?"

Gabi laughed. "Then… I will tell them I deleted it." Isn't that simple? Just tell them what they wanted to hear. "They won't know it. Once they try to hurt you… I will release it in the press."

"Miss…" Tears pooled in Aren's eyes.

"Don't cry now. You will have a long… long way to go." Gabi said. "Now, I want you to be very careful. The Sealey Family may look kind on the outside but they are different inside that mansion." In short, they would probably try to kill Aren. "Do you understand what I am trying to say?"
