5-One-night stand punishment

He remembers? He actually remembered that day?

  Letitia felt her blood rush to her head and retreated to the booth's corner seat. She had not left the house for two months out of fear of this man. Letitia had not seen him at her door for so long that she believed he didn't even recognise her at their first night, but the first thing she heard from him was a marriage proposal.

  "Samuel, have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?" Letitia retorted indignantly, raising her voice.

  Samuel recalled a stray cat he had picked up on the side of the road that had begun in a similar manner, hissing and huffing at him, with wariness, dread, and menace written all over its face...... However, it was only pretending to be cruel out of fear.

  It was only when it retreated to what it considered a safe distance that the little guy would return to normal.

  Samuel heaved a sigh before rising up, glaring condescendingly at Letitia, resuming his prior demeanour, and remarking with a smug grin,  "Miss Letitia does not yet know? I am your first matched marriage prospect."

  Huh? What kind of coincidence is that? How could she have been unaware?

  "If Miss Letitia doesn't believe me, you can check your phone right now for the AO match result notification."

  Letitia pulled out her phone to check, and in the pile of unread text messages, she did flip to the so-called notification.When she looked at the date, it turned out to be sent two days ago. So she was probably sleeping or doing something else at the time and didn't notice it.

  The successful match, Alpha and Omega, needed to go to the Matching Marriage Authority on the seventh day to register. Those who matched before the age of 25 had a one-month inspection period. So if they were two strangers, they could use the month to get along well.

  Letitia though was devastated by the match result as it was not quite what was expected. She tucked her phone back into her pocket and asked tentatively, "Just because of that?"

  Samuel raised an eyebrow and he gave a "That's not enough?"  look.

  Letitia sighed with relief and tried to test him some more when she caught a glimpse of Lurina and her friends coming down from the dance floor.

  Letitia stood up like a fighting hen: "So what if I regret this  marriage with you? I can choose to decline after the inspection period."

  Regardless of whether he remembered the night or not, their relationship was never going to progress to the point where they could marry. Just thinking about it made her feel queasy.

  She was afraid that this guy was trying to get back at her in the name of marriage . But even if she became an omega she would still be the same Letitia.

  Samuel smiled instead of being angry, as if he had suddenly turned delighted. His honey-like dimples and genuine smile made him appear less like a powerful Ruiz boss and more like a school-aged youth.

  "What are you laughing at?" Letitia asked.

  Samuel wanted to pet her head and tell her because you look so cute right now, but he couldn't because it would scare the timid cat.

  "Nothing."

  The upper class fellas approached them, sensing the unusual aura of the duo but feeling it in a regular way and not thinking anything more of it.

  "I said I saw Samuel and you guys still don't believe me." Lurina said smugly to the man next to him, coming up to them and asking, "What's the matter? Big Boss Ruiz actually has time to come sit at the bar today?"

  Samuel greeted them and gestured with his chin to a booth table not far away, "Keeping clients company, I have bussiness  to do, you guys have fun."

  There wasn't a single person in the circle who didn't know Samuel, and it certainly wasn't a good idea to see him just  leave. The red-suited omega from earlier started to coax, "You were having a nice chat with Miss Letitia . Why are you leaving now that we're here."

  Letitia glared at him, "Who had a good chat with him?"

  Samuel smiled, "I'm here to say hello to my matched omega." With that he looked over at Letitia, "Don't forget to come along for marriage registration in a few days."

  With that he waved his hand at the group and walked away, leaving a dumbfounded crowd of spectators. They just wondered what was wrong with their hearing?

  "Fxxk! Really????Letitia just split into Omega and was matched with Samuel, what kind of fate is this!”

  One man whispered, "What fate? Don't you know Letitia doesn't like him and probably can't get married?"

  Lurina interjected, "Not only do they not like each other, they are almost enemies."

A side omega silently spoke up: "But if it were me, I'd be willing, such a quality alpha is hard to find. Do you know that the big boss of Ruiz Group has never been promiscuous.His personal life is very clean. He is so suitable for being a  harbor when you tired of playing." It's like a contemporary version of the "honest man".

  Letitia helplessly slapped the table and said, "Shut up please!"

/

Probably because of the match results, Letitia has been in the mood for the past few days and has resumed her habit of going out to the bar every day, forgetting all about registering for the matched marriage.

In fact, when it comes to bar-hopping, Lurina booked booths in nooks and crannies away from the crowd to cater for Letitia who is sensitive to smells, which took away one of the great pleasures of coming to a bar - seeing pretty girls and guys, but that's where Queen Letitia is! 

Letitia, on the other hand, would occasionally do herself the honor of having a glass of fruit wine, but mostly slept in her booth.

She was too uncomfortable to sleep sitting down, so she simply shooed a few people away and half lay down in the three-person wide card seat.

"She might as well go home and sleep, the bed at home is at least a little more comfortable." Lurina wanted to persuade her not to come, but Letitia's personality was such that the more she wasn't allowed to come, the more she clocked in every day.

The people on the other side of the room laughed: "I didn't expect Letitia to be different from before after she differentiated."

"Do you think Letitia is possessed, why does she sleep every day?" 

Lurina inquired quietly of the person speaking next to her.

The man's name was Max, a beta, his family was in the medical equipment business, so they forced him to study medicine.

Max shook his head and replied, "I don't know!"

Lurina frowned and raised his volume, "Didn't you study medicine?"

Max laughed out loud, "Do I look like a good student to you? Besides, I studied surgery, do you think everyone is as good as your alpha? You think everyone is as good as your alpha? You can run a private hospital and cure anything!"

Lurina choked, although he didn't think much of his own alpha, he had to be convinced when it came to being a doctor.

Lurina gulped, even though he didn't think much of his own alpha.But he was really admirable when it came to being a doctor.

Letitia woke up and opened her eyes in annoyance, "Can you guys just be little quiet?"

Only Miss Letitia would dare to ask for silence in a bar.

Lurina grimaced, picked up a plate of snacks and said in a throaty voice, "Yes, the Queen will have her meal."

Letitia gave her a blank look, got up, pinched a piece of beef jerky and threw it into her mouth, but before she could chew it twice, she spat it out with a "yuck".

"This jerky is out of date, isn't it?" As soon as she spoke, the taste of beef jerky hit her head, and Letitia couldn't help but clutch the bin and dry heave.

"Huh? How can it be expired, is it that bad?" Lurina was shocked, took a piece and ate it, no problem, it still tasted the same as before.

Max watched from the side and spoke up to tease, "I say Letitia, you're not pregnant, are you?"

Letitia's body stiffened and she glared angrily, and before he could finish his sentence, Lurina opened his mouth, "How is that possible? She's only just differentiated."

Max grinned playfully, "The youngest daughter of a well-known corporation has been genetically mutated by late differentiation and thus has the ability to reproduce herself! Well, the state will definitely protect you as a treasured animal."

Lurina also followed suit and laughed, it did look like that when he thought about it, but when he thought about it, he knew it was impossible.She had only been differentiated for two months, after differentiation she was bored at home every day like a little daughter-in-law, there was no chance of hooking up with an alpha any more.

Letitia's heart thumped, then she grabbed a handful of peanuts and threw them at the two of them, "Cut the crap."

Having decided she was a beta, she hadn't listened to the part of the physiology class about omega and alpha, and had long since lost track of what the professor was talking about in class. With her sister being an alpha again, and no young omega around to refer to.She couldn't think what was wrong with her, and when reminded by Max, suddenly realised that something seemed wrong with the situation.

Because of the low fertility rate, the country of Cortas had opened up the system of forced marriage matches and naturally would not allow abortions, what if she did get pregnant ...... she vividly remembered the night when damn Samuel had formed a knot in her uterus.

Letitia was in a complete panic and was distracted until the party broke up. She walked forward out of the bar with her head down, ready to find a place to get checked out, she knew that Lurina's alpha had opened a private hospital, the kind of place that had more privacy and was definitely better than a public hospital.

She immediately called Lurina, who had just left, and asked her to make an appointment with his alpha to do a check-up for herself  tomorrow ,which had to be done by him personally. Lurina though puzzled by the request, readily agreed and made the appointment for the next day without any problems.

Letitia didn't sleep well all night, once the seeds of suspicion were planted she felt that nothing was right, she looked at her stomach as if she was looking at a beast, and fell asleep a little and woke up again. She spent the rest of the night struggling with this.

When she woke up the next day, she felt like she was floating, and in this state she didn't dare to drive herself.

This hospital was one of the more prestigious hospitals in high society circles. The alpha of the Lurina's family was named Arkell, who was ten years older than her and had ended a six-year marriage before being matched with Lurina. As to why she married this alpha in the first place, in her own words, she was deceived by his mature appearance!

Arkell was an experienced and qualified doctor who did not keep Letitia waiting for long for the results.

"At 8 weeks' gestation, the foetus is slightly underdeveloped and it is recommended that your alpha partner spend more time with you."

Since hearing these words, Letitia's head went blank and she couldn't even remember how she got out of the hospital.

It wasn't until the sun was blindingly bright that Letitia came to her senses as if she were in a different world.The lab slip in her hand so blindingly bright that she clutched it tightly in her palm.

Her mind was as crumpled and jumbled as this mass of labs.

Her life had only just begun, a little unlucky, a little late in differentiating, but not without solutions. She slowly placed her hand on her stomach and stared at the slab of stone in front of the hospital.

After a while she finally made up her mind and decided that she would find the opportunity to abort the still unformed life form in her belly!

The thing was only about the size of a coin now anyway, and she didn't have much affection for it yet. But she couldn't let the thing drag her life down.

Letitia paced back and forth in front of the hospital, going through an internal struggle.

Arkell's words echoed in his ears again, "I can keep your secret, but I'm very sorry that abortions are not available here either."

The regular hospital wouldn't do it, she could find a black clinic, but ...... she seemed to have heard that it hurt to have that procedure done, she was most afraid of pain, what could she do? Can she have general anesthesia?

But is there a good anaesthetist in a black clinic?

Letitia took a few steps back to apologise, but she tripped over a paving stone and was caught at the waist by the man in time.

Letitia subconsciously apologised, "I'm sorry." Only when the words left her mouth did she realise it was Samuel.

"It's okay, Miss Letitia, but be careful where you walk next time."

Samuel was dressed in casual clothes today and his hair was unstyled, making him look a bit juvenile.

Letitia panicked for a moment, hiding her test results behind her back and pushing the man away with a wrinkled brow, "Get away from me! You're a trouble maker."

If it wasn't for him, why would she be in this situation? Maybe she would have managed to differentiated into alpha. Where she would be now, with that thing in her belly, not only unable to get rid of it fair and square, but even having to spend the expedition with the culprit.

Samuel didn't care about her vicious words, but noticed her movements and asked, "What's wrong with you? Sick?"

Sick? She'd like to think it was sick, but unfortunately it wasn't.

She was annoyed and irritated, and remembering that all this sleepiness, lethargy and acidity and vomiting was because of this man in front of her, she shivered with anger and lifted her foot and stomped on Samuel's trainers, "Mind your own business!"

Samuel could have dodged, but didn't.

He knew that Letitia was angry about the other night, so he just let her have her way, pretending that it hurt when she stepped on him and cursing that she had stepped too hard.

Letitia felt better and tucked her arm to leave, when a female voice came from the hospital entrance.

"Samuel, what are you doing? Gotta get in line to register."

A tall, slender woman came into view, her features bright and beautiful, a big, shining beauty.

Letitia was annoyed again, why should this guy have a beautiful woman at his side and suffer this?Why should she have to take this kind of punishment?

Samuel smiled "smugly" at Letitia: "How about that's my cousin? Isn't she beautiful?"

"None of my business!" Letitia glared at him in anger and turned her head to leave again when Samuel grabbed her wrist.

"Remember to register your marriage match together tomorrow so you don't hold me up for future matches."

If a matched result was not registered when it was due, it would directly affect later matches and the inspection period would be cut short.

Letitia drew her hand back, didn't say anything, glared at him and walked away.

Samuel looked at Letitia's distant back and then at the hospital doors, wrinkling his brow as he dialed his assistant's number.

"Hey, Ben, find out what Letitia came in for today and what the test results were."

He hung up the phone and changed the aggravated look he had in front of Letitia when he had just been "limped". He strode towards the hospital.

Is he going to be “happy” with the results. Please get a better editor. The mistakes distract from the story.
