He Chose His Scholar Over Me So I Married the Heir Waiting in the Capital

For three years, I counted on Adrian Huo to help me escape the marriage my stepmother had arranged. At the city's matchmaking gala, all he had to do was choose me. Instead, he handed the only orchid that mattered to the scholarship student he favored, leaving me publicly humiliated and bound for the capital. He said it was just a flower. To me, it was my last chance at freedom. So I left without a word. Adrian stopped the airport to bring me back, but the man waiting for me in the capital had already offered something Adrian never did: the freedom to choose my own future.
