Married at First Sight Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei Chapter 187

Jade Hotel “Are you not going to change into better ones?” Seeing that Maria didn‘t even make an
effort to dress properly for the date, Bill pointed at her appearance and urged her to change her clothes
Maria couldn‘t help but raise her eyebrows in protest. “All of my clothes are like this. I don‘t think you‘ll
find anything that will satisfy you even if I wear them all.” Hearing this, Bill sighed and turned to Vivian.
He had no choice but to ask for her help. “Vivian, can you please lend some of your dresses to Maria?
She‘ll just borrow it for a day. Besides, you already have too many of them.” “What? No way!” Vivian
instantly frowned as she strongly refused. She did have many beautiful dresses, and all of them were
from famous brands. In fact, some of them were even haute couture. But there was no way that she
would let Maria borrow those expensive dresses. The moment Maria wore it, Vivian would never want
to touch it again. But upon realizing that her reaction was a bit over the top, Vivian immediately
regained her composure.

She then forced a smile and said to Maria, “I‘m not being narrow–minded, okay? But my dresses are
tailor–made for me. So, even if I let you borrow them, I don‘t think they will fit on you.” Being a popular
actress that did a few online dramas now, Vivian was actually confident about her face and figure. But
while she was speaking, Vivian looked at Maria subconsciously. After secretly comparing her overall
looks with Maria‘s, she felt a little depressed. She didn‘t notice it earlier, but she was about one inch or
two shorter than Maria. The pill that was even harder to swallow was when she realized that her figure
was also inferior to Maria.

Luckily for Vivian, Maria was always cool and aloof. She didn‘t put much effort in her appearance and
would just go with plain shirts and jeans. However, no matter how simple her clothes were, they weren‘t
enough to hide her curvy figure. Therefore, if Maria started wearing fancy dresses, it would definitely
stun everyone. Realizing this, Vivian suddenly felt like she didn‘t have that mature charm when
compared to Maria.



Even she had to admit that her “sister” was easily prettier and hotter than she was. Consumed by this
thought, Vivian couldn‘t help clenching her fists and gritting her teeth. A father would know his daughter
better than anyone. Even without Vivian saying the real

reason why she didn’t want to lend her dress to Maria, Bill already had a clear hunch. At this time, he
looked at his watch and found that it was almost the appointed time to meet Anthony

Therefore, he thought that they should be on their way. Bill dropped off the idea of Maria having to
dress better for this occasion. Despite being plain, she was a really good–looking girl. He was confident
that Anthony wouldn‘t have any complaints about her. With that, Bill let out a faint smile and said,
“Forget it. You don‘t have to change your clothes. We‘ll be late if we don‘t go now.” Maria nodded and
was also relieved. If Bill still forced her to wear one of Vivian‘s fancy dresses, she would have to find
excuses to refuse. Of course, she found it to be such a drag.

Jade Hotel, the venue for their meeting, was a magnificent and pretty huge place. When they got there,
Bill and Maria sat down in the cafe in the lobby. While drinking the coffee served to them, Bill started to
feel a little nervous. This was just supposed to be a leisure area in the hotel, but Bill already had an
illusion that he was in a palace. Initially, Bill didn‘t pay much attention to this date because he firmly
believed that Anthony had lost his family‘s right of inheritance. Moreover, for someone who wouldn‘t be
able to walk again, Bill thought that Anthony shouldn‘t be too picky with who his bride was going to be.
With Maria‘s beauty, he should already be grateful to have her as his wife. But as they were waiting for
Anthony‘s arrival, Bill was utterly shocked by the grandeur of Jade Hotel. He thought he had a clear
grasp of the power of Wilson family, but he was sorely mistaken. Now, he clearly remembered that they
were still considered a humble family compared to the Wilsons.

Out of nowhere, Bill began to take this engagement seriously again. Then, he let out an evident frown,
blaming Anthony in his mind for being so careless. If he hadn‘t lost his qualification for the inheritance,
Vivian would be his wife, and they could gain an unthinkable amount of benefits. Bill would have been
the father–in–law of the future master of the Wilson family. It was any father‘s dream. “I have to go to



the comfort room for a few minutes.” While Bill was in a daze, Maria suddenly stood up. Although she
was a bit panicky, she didn‘t show it on her face. But it wasn‘t because of this date. She had a feeling
that her narcolepsy might suddenly occur at any time. Hence, she wanted to at least wash her face with
cold water to keep herself awake. “What? Now? Can‘t you just hold it in for a little while? Anthony will
arrive at any minute. It‘s a bit disrespectful that you‘re not here to greet him when he comes.” However,
Maria

started walking away, so he called out to her in discontentment, “This place is very big. Be careful not
to get lost, okay?” On the other hand, Maria ignored him and didn‘t even turn her head. Instead, she
just went straight toward a certain direction. Seeing this, Bill became curious. It should be Maria‘s first
time here in Jade Hotel. So, why was she walking steadily as if she knew exactly where the comfort
room was? Then, as he looked further into the direction where Maria was going, his eyes opened wide.
There was a guidance mark that looked like a piece of artwork. It indeed pointed out to the direction of
the comfort room. Did Maria already see this earlier?

Chapter 15 Did You See Everything Maria staggered forward. Each passing second, her vision became
more and more blurred. Fortunately, she still managed to get to the area just outside the comfort
rooms. With her consciousness quickly fading, she held onto the shared sink with both her hands.
Then, she turned the faucet on for some water. But to her surprise, nothing flowed out. She thought
that this was such a sick joke. Jade Hotel was known as the most luxurious hotel in Sheffield. How
could there be no water in the sink? This was so unacceptable. A second later, from the corner of her
eye, she vaguely saw a sign beside the sink which read, “UNDER REPAIR“.

What an unlucky coincidence. However, she couldn‘t just give up. Maria had to do something before
she completely lost her consciousness. Still able to think, she tried to go inside the comfort room,
knowing that there should be a sink in both the men‘s and ladies‘ rooms. But she was really dizzy at
this point. She couldn‘t determine which side was the ladies ‘room. Not able to clearly process things



anymore, Maria just went with her gut, chose a side, and barged inside. She had no time to care
whether it was the ladies‘ room or not.

Inside the comfort room, she rushed to the sink and turned the faucet on. Finally, a cold stream of
water gushed out, and she was able to stimulate her facial nerves with it. After constantly splashing
water on her face for a while, Maria‘s sleepiness eventually dissipated, and she became fully awake
again. However, from her peripheral vision, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a person standing in
front of the urinal nearest to her. At this moment, Maria‘s eyes widened. Wait! A urinal?! It meant that
she actually barged into the men‘s room, and someone was there, witnessing her stupid mistake. The
man in front of the urinal looked pretty tall and was wearing a suit. However, Maria was slightly
confused upon seeing an electric wheelchair beside him. What was it for?

But of course, she didn’t have time to think about it. She was in the wrong restroom, and she had to get
out of there as soon as possible. Moreover, the atmosphere had already started to get awkward. She
couldn‘t help but

wonder what the man was thinking of her. I Without saying a word, Maria tried to walk out as if nothing
happened. “Did you see everything?” The man called from behind Maria and asked an unexpected
question. Hearing this, Maria couldn‘t help but stop in her tracks. She couldn‘t believe that this was
what he was going to ask her. Oh, how embarrassed she was. What was this person thinking? Couldn‘t
he just ignore her instead? Clearly, she didn‘t intend to go inside the men‘s room on purpose. However,
feeling that the man wouldn‘t get off her back, she gritted her teeth and sneered coldly “Yes, I saw it.
Are you going to hold me responsible just because I did?” After saying that, Maria went out of the
comfort room without looking back. She used to be very composed, but now, her pace was somehow
hurried. A moment after Maria left, the man smirked and sat back in his electric wheelchair. He took his
time very well before he came out. At the same time, Maria didn‘t return to the cafe right away.
Because she splashed water on her face, her collar had also got wet and she had to fix herself first.
Otherwise, she wouldn‘t hear the end of it from Bill. Thus, she went to the ladies‘ room and made sure



she looked decent enough before walking back to the cafe. “Oh, there she is.” Seeing that Maria was
finally back, Bill pointed at her while letting out an unprecedented kind smile. “Maria, I‘m glad you‘re
here already. Let me introduce this gentleman to you. This is… Wait. What‘s wrong with you?” Before
Bill could finish introducing Anthony to her, he noticed that Maria was flummoxed, as if she just saw a
ghost. Although Maria had only taken a glance at that man she ran into in the men‘s comfort room, she
immediately recognized that he was the same guy who was sitting face to face with Bill right now. After
all, she wouldn‘t be mistaken by something more obvious. This guy was sitting on the same electric
wheelchair that she saw back there. “No… It‘s nothing.” Although Maria looked very stunned for a few
seconds, her eyes immediately returned to being calm. Regaining her composure, she sat down as if
the incident in the restroom didn‘t happen. Since the man across the table remained silent about it,
Maria also didn’t say a thing. In fact, only Bill was the one talking all this time.

“Oh, okay. As I was saying, this is Mr. Anthony Wilson; and this is my daughter Maria. Mr. Wilson, I’m
aware that the marriage between you and my daughter was decided by your grandfather. However, I‘m
afraid he didn‘t know that I actually have two daughters. You must already know Vivian since she is an
actress. On the other hand, Maria was raised in the town I come from, and she is actually my elder
daughter. Because we were not able to talk about it at length, there might have been some
misunderstandings. Instead of Maria, I think your grandpa believed that Vivian was going to be your
fiancee. Even you must know the tradition. The elder daughter should be married first, so I hope you
have no problem with that. Besides, Maria is an outstanding girl. I do believe that you won‘t have an
issue with her. Ha–ha…” Bill let out a nervous chuckle but still kept on talking without stopping. On the
other hand, Maria couldn‘t help but scoff subtly. The Wilson family was one of the richest and most
powerful families in Sheffield. She wondered if Bill was really expecting that he could fool them.
Although it seemed that he was the one dominating the conversation, in fact, he was in a passive
position. No matter how hard he sold Maria, whether the engagement would go on or not was
completely up to Anthony. Being deliberately toyed with by the Jenkins family, Maria assumed that Bill
was only making Anthony angry. “It‘s fine.” At this time, Maria was instantly dragged back from her



thoughts the moment she heard Anthony‘s voice. The handsome man in the wheelchair seemed to be
very gentle, but Maria could detect a cunning smile on his face. “Miss Maria, right? You don‘t have to
worry, Mr. Jenkins. I am in favor of this arrangement.”
