Chapter 160: Stay in your lane
The military guards immediately appeared and created a shield around both Ian and Mary.
"General Mo, is it true that you are now a married man?" One reporter asked as all the cameras faced both Ian and Mary waiting for an answer.
Ian looked at the cameras before answering proudly, with a smile plastered on his face, "To the most beautiful woman in country X." One could clearly hear the pride in his voice as they all proceeded to congratulate the two when one reporter suddenly asked something changing the atmosphere in seconds.
"But General Mo, you are a very important person in this country and from my research this woman is a lowlife and an orphan, you can’t possibly just get married to her, I believe I speak for country X when I say she is not suitable for you general." The reporter finished her statement shocking the entire crowd of reporters and the bystanders who were around.
Before either Ian or Mary spoke, a voice was heard from behind as reporters paved way for the lady who was approaching the front. "If a mere reporter can notice this general Mo then you really need to rethink your idea of marrying her."
A beautiful woman dressed in luxurious clothes came forward as she made her intention clear. "You see general Mo, you need more than a beauty beside you, someone who understands the higher society better, someone like I.. Victoria, the heiress of the Li family.." She finished but not without sizing Mary up and down.
By now all cameras were keenly recording everything because it seemed like there was going to be a good show. Ian was about to speak when Mary started laughing as she clapped her hands prompting Ian to give her a confused look but that didn’t stop the girl.
"Allow me husband.." She said as she left her position and stood next to the Victoria girl. Her facial expression changed and became serious that even Ian got scared for a second because of the aura she was releasing.
