Six years ago, she saved his life. And for six years he had searched desperately for her, but it was as if she had vanished from the face of the earth. Just as he was about to suspect that it was all a dream, she unexpectedly walked up to him and said, "I am Andrea Aguero, your fiancée." *** Andrea Aguero, the world-famous mysterious doctor, went on a journey alone, carrying a souvenir, to fulfill her grandmother's last wish by finding her arranged fiancé. Deep down, she secretly hoped the man would reject her. But when she actually meets him, things get out of hand! *** Andrea swallowed and looked up at Sebastian, then asked, "Mr. Munoz? Will you marry me?" She was still anticipating the man's rejection. "What if I'm not interested?" Inwardly ecstatic, Andrea managed to maintain a calm exterior and said, "That is my grandmother's intention, but if you are not willing, I will not force you to marry me.I will return the pendant to you and the marriage contract will be null and void." The words were spoken with great politeness - excellent, mission accomplished! But suddenly Sebastian moved closer to her, a small smile playing on his lips. "But... my family is extremely strict about integrity, and since my grandfather has already made this deal, it would be disrespectful for me to refuse, and my refusal would make it appear that my family doesn't keep its word." This statement immediately put Andrea on high alert, her eyebrows furrowing as she asked, "So..." "So...let's get married." Sebastian dropped a bomb in a quiet tone. How could that be!
View MoreThe night is cold,but Andrea felt cold and hot at the same time.
She was sweaty and she was filled with panic as she sat by her grandmother's bedside.She of all people knew that there was no hope left for her grandmother anymore but she wanted to hang on to a little glimpse of hope.
"An...Andrea,don't cry."Her Grandmother stuttered and coughed."It is my time to go."
More tears spilled from Andrea's eyes.Her grandmother had cancer,it had been an illness that Andrea had fought so hard to treat for about five years now. Even with her exceptional medical skills, it was of no avail. She had saved so many lives, yet she couldn't save her own grandmother.
"Don't leave me,Grandma,I don't want to be alone."Andrea wept.
"You...you won't be alone."
Andrea sniffed and watched as her grandmother weakly placed a diamond pendant on her hands.
"Find Sebastian Munoz. He's your fiancé."
That got Andrea confused."My...my fiancé?"
When did she acquire a fiancé?
Her grandmother nodded. "Years ago,I struck a deal with his grandfather.You two are already bonded by a marriage contract."
"But..."
"Sweetie, I do not want you to be alone. This man will take good care of you so go find him and get married to him. I want you to always have someone on your side."
Andrea sniffed again as she stared at the pendant.
Her grandmother was unaware of Andrea's true identity and profession, oblivious to the fact that she was the mysterious doctor highly sought after by many. Naturally, she worried about Andrea's future. Although she believed that her grandmother's chosen man must not be a bad person, but...
Just as she hesitated, her grandma shakily grabbed hold of her hand.
"Andrea.Promise me.This is my last wish, my dying wish is for you to be with this man."
Andrea tearfully stared at the old woman.
The weight of her grandmother's words weighed heavily on her heart.
But she couldn't bear to say no to her.
She couldn't bear to disobey her.
Being a doctor, she was well aware that her grandmother's time was running out. She shouldn't let her leave with regrets.
"I... I promise. I will go find him," she assured.
The old woman smiled at her and Andrea was grateful for that smile.
"Give me a hug,my dear."Her grandmother requested.
Andrea stood up and gently hugged her.
"I...I want you to live a very long and happy life." The old woman whispered.
Few minutes later,Andrea felt the old woman become heavy and cold in her arms.
No one needed to tell her what had happened.
Still hugging her grandmother,uncontrollable tears spilled from her eyes.
"Grandma... Grandma... you can rest assured, I will," she whispered with determination.
***
One week later.
The breeze was refreshing and the fruits were in full bloom.
At the foot of a quiet mountain,an Argentinian-style courtyard came in view,a fusion of classical and modern,simple and elegant.
Inside the courtyard,a simple and beautiful girl with a calm temperament was sitting on a rock chair,with a laptop on her laps,her fingers tapping away, rapidly.
A moment later, the girl held her cheeks and looked at the photo on the screen, her eyes lit up.
"Not bad. He looks quite charming but the internet can be deceiving.I wonder if he looks exactly like this in person." Andrea said to herself.
A few seconds later,she frowned and discovered that the man's profile was a bit too simple.
He appears to be mysterious.
"Andrea,are you really just going to go ahead and marry that Munoz guy?"Paula sneakily glanced at the screen of her laptop.
Andrea placed the laptop on a small table and sighed.
"This is grandma's final wish. At the very least, I should give it a try," she affirmed.
The old woman saved her and took her in. She loved her and took good care of her as if she was her real granddaughter.
She taught Andrea everything she knows and even sent her abroad to study.Before her grandmother passed away,she told her that she had set up an arranged married for her with the Munoz family.
The old woman's wish was for Andrea to never be alone.She wanted Andrea to have a home and someone she could rely on.
At least it was a beautiful wish, and something within her power to accomplish.
Paula pulled aside a wooden chair and sat down,frowning. "That's because she doesn't know how in demand you are!"
As she spoke, she took out her phone and began checking Andrea's appointment schedule. "Look, that Bruno from Buenos Aires is offering a high price for another appointment. Are you going to turn him down again this time?"
Andrea reclined towards the rocking chair,turned her eyes to look at the beautiful scenery of the setting sun outside the courtyard.
"I don't have the time for that at the moment."
Paula nodded without surprise, "I knew it, so I rejected it for you a long time ago!"
Andrea chuckled at her words.
Paula stared at her. Since her grandmother's passing a week ago, Andrea had seldom smiled or shown any expressions. Paula was getting worried. Perhaps leaving this place was a good choice.
However, she still brought up Andrea's investigation into her prospective fiancé, "I heard this Munoz guy is cold and ruthless. People say he doesn't treat women nicely."
Unexpectedly, Andrea's smile grew even wider, and she self-deprecatingly said, "Isn't that better? Don't worry, he won't be interested in this country bumpkin like me."
Paula paused for a second, then burst into laughter, "I knew it! So, you had a plan all along!"
Immediately, she took out a small bottle with a smile, "Here. Andrea, take this. Make sure you never lose it. If he forces you, feed him this!"
Andrea gasped, "I'm a doctor, not a killer."
"Calm down. This isn't poison, okay? It only makes one itchy in all places. You're so beautiful, who knows if that man might get tempted!" Paula handed over the bottle, and Andrea, feeling helpless, accepted it, "Well, thank you."
As she looked at the small bottle in her hand, recalling the handsome face on the screen, she sighed, hoping her intuition wouldn't lead her astray.

Ortiz shook his leg, looked at a large tree in the distance, and responded carelessly, "I don’t have any money for that.”It has already costing him a lot to go sightseeing with her.The man felt something heavy in his hand and, looking down,he was stunned.Holy shit,it was actually a piece of gold!"Is this enough?" The girl asked.When Ortiz saw this, he quickly pulled her sleeve and walked to a large tree, asking with a serious expression, "Where did this come from?"Did she not say she was from a remote place?How did she get this piece of gold?"These were given to me by my grandpa and uncle in the past, don't worry, they're not stolen."Ortiz froze for a moment, were all the people in the mountains so wealthy now?He couldn’t take this from her.He looked at the heavy gold in his hand, turned his head to the side, and very reluctantly gave it back to April again.“Since it's for you, hurry up and put it away, don't lose it." He was a man, he couldn't afford to be greedy.April g
It had been a few days since she had followed Elias here, and she hadn't even been out of the house.Elias was busy every day,she could hardly see him around , and was not allow her to leave.Even to go anywhere, she needed a card of some kind to get out, and where could she have that?!April expressed her distress, in this place, it really wasn't like the Ancient Clan, it was hard to sneak around!Once Ortiz heard this, he thoughtfully sized up the little girl in front of him again, he was secretly pleased.So she did not want his money as compensation.This was great.It just so happened that he wasn't familiar with the place, so he could take a free tour guide."No problem, get up, don't delay the tour." Ortiz stood up, waved at her, and walked directly forward.Hearing this,Mona immediately stood up, smiling as she followed behind Ortiz while rubbing her buttocks."Okay, okay, let's hurry.”She didn’t want to get caught.Thus, the two soon arrived at the Villa gates.Ortiz had a s
The next couple of days,Andrea was treating Mona.Although that 'Flower of Life' had awakened her, it was also extremely helpful with her recovering.However, due to Mona’s long slumber, her bodily functions were not yet able to recover quickly.However, it was good to know that Rigel had taken good care of her over the years.Every day since she was in a coma,she had a regular limbs massage, turn over for her, plus the treatment of other drugs.Therefore, Mona’s muscle atrophy is not serious.So, Andrea went to chat with her mother every day, and told her roughly what had happened recently.And she continued to give acupuncture for Mona every day, and even told Ortiz to specially send the latest developed special drugs from the research institute.At the moment,Ortiz was carrying a special small box with an excited heart, and with a surprised face, he was led by the maid to the house where Andrea was staying.He looked left and right and couldn't help but sigh.Andrea was just awesom
Seeing his father in this state,Elias let out a light laugh, and then, together with Rigel,hr rushed over towards Mona’s place.Not a moment too soon,the two of them then arrived at the door of Mona’s room.Suddenly, however,Rigel stopped in his tracks.He looked at the door to the room, his heart was tense with anticipation, and both of his hands were unconsciously clenched together.Seeing his father stop in his tracks,Elias asked suspiciously, "Father, what's wrong with you?Why are we stopping?”Rigel calmed down, and then, very carefully, straightened out his clothes again.He glanced at Elias beside him and asked with a serious expression, "Elias, have I aged a lot?Would your mother be shocked to see me like this now?"Twenty year has passed.He wasn't the same young lad he once was, he was much older, even gray hairs were coming out.Would his Mona be shocked when she woke up and saw him like this?Elias saw his father reveal this rare appearance of nervousness and helplessness,
The wind at night was comfortably cool.After dinner,Rigel and Elias went to the office as they still had some work matters to attend to.Andrea and Sebastian also didn't return to their own place, but went to Mona’s place again.After a day's observation,Andrea realized that Mona’s body had reacted greatly compared to the previous days, so she decided to go back at night to check the situation.The two of them walked into Mona’s room hand in hand, and they happened to bump into two maid, who had finished massaging Mona’s limbs."Ma’am!" The maid saw the two walk in and rose to greet them respectfully.Andrea nodded and asked, "Is there anything going on with my mother in the meantime?"The maid shook her head, “Ma’am, she's still the same as before, there's no other special signs.""Okay, I got it, you guys can leave now."After Andrea finished speaking, she then walked over to Mona’s bedside and observed.Then, taking the woman's hand from under the covers, his fingers probed her pu
