Jaden looked at her silently. There was no joy, no sorrow, no hatred, and no anger on his face. It was as if he was watching a movie with terrible acting skills.
Linda was engrossed in her words. Her eyes were misty with tears, and she could not see Jaden's expression clearly.
She continued, "I went on a hunger strike for a few days and almost starved to death. They forced food on me when I didn't have the strength. I pretended to agree to them and planned to escape, but I was still captured by them."
She placed both hands on the stone table and pulled up her sleeves. "This is the result of my repeated resistance."
She had scars left by cuts on both of her wrists. It looked like it had been a long time.
Jaden's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't react.
Linda retracted her hands and hugged herself tightly. She lowered her head and said with a trembling voice, "To force me to submit, they drugged me with sleeping pills in the water. When I woke up, a man was sleeping beside me..."
She covered her face with her hands again. It seemed that she was in so much pain that she wanted to die. She continued, "I thought of death again, but my mother said that if I died, the entire family would have no choice but to die with me. I have no choice but to marry that man..."
What she regretted the most was that the last time she met Jaden, she was dressed very well and exquisitely. She did not show the bad side of her life.
"Jaden, can you forgive me?" she asked in a trembling voice. "If you don't forgive me, I can only..."
Before she could say the word "die", Athena could not take it anymore and jumped out from behind the tree, throwing a small stone at her.
She cursed, "You liar! Bitch! After doing such a despicable and shameless thing, you still dare to act pitifully in front of us. How shameless you are!"
Jaden was a little surprised to see Athena. "Athena, why are you here?" he asked.
Athena raised her hand, signaling Jaden not to speak. Then, she placed the tablet on the stone table and opened the photo on it. She shouted to Linda, "It's all a lie to say that you were drugged, forced, locked up, and had no freedom!
"On the day of the wedding, you were indeed forcefully taken away by your family, but they didn't imprison you. Instead, they let you see with your own eyes how rich the old man who likes you, Bush Miller, is!"
She did not give Linda a chance to retort and did not stop talking for a second.
"Bush is thirty years older than you. He's been a contractor for decades and has a net worth of more than 300 million dollars. He once had two wives. The first wife divorced and took three children with her. The second wife died of illness, leaving behind a daughter and a son.
"As long as you're willing to marry him, he'll buy a house for your elder and younger brothers each. He'll also give you a villa worth about 10 million dollars and an expensive car. He'll also guarantee to make a will on the day of your marriage. After he dies, the assets will be divided equally between you and the two children."
Athena zoomed in on the photos and continued, "On that day of the wedding, your parents took you to see this villa, this Porsche, and the jewelry. These things, together with the assets that Bush promised you, add up to about 100 million dollars. You keep saying that you love Jaden, but in front of a large amount of money, you surrender!"
Athena dug out more photos and said mockingly, "This is your marriage certificate with Bush! This is a photo of you and Bush holding a wedding. Look at how you're dressed in jewelry and smiling so happily!
"This is a photo of Bush taking you on a trip abroad. There's also a photo of you flaunting your wealth on social media. Tell me, how do you look like you were forced to get married and are unhappy?"
