Me Before You novel Chapter 5

"But... Are you sure you don't need to talk to your family?" Jack Smith didn't know what situation had forced an 18-year-old girl to make such a big decision.

Anna Stark smiled bitterly. "No, my family... we'll surely have no problem."

Jack Smith observed Anna Stark's smile and felt sad for her. "In that case, try to move here and live with Mr. Taylor as soon as possible," he added.

"What?" Anna Stark was stunned.

Just after the signing, she came to know that she has to move here and live with him. Anna Stark was a little girl. She was afraid to hear that.

"What do you think that you can live anywhere and can spend your life as you like after marrying Mr. Taylor?" When Jack Smith noticed a look of amazement, he knew that she hadn’t thought about this yet.

"Now, you are Mr. Taylor's wife. You have to take responsibility for him. And now it is your responsibility to continue Mr. Taylor’s family line. Miss Anna Stark please take this marriage seriously and don't treat it as a joke," Jack Smith added. He knew that Daniel Taylor was hurt by Isabella Brown. He didn’t want him to be hurt again.

Anna Stark was shocked by his sudden change of tone. She has agreed to marry Daniel Taylor, but all she thought was about her own interests. She did not consider what he can expect from her as his lawfully wedded wife.

But Jack Smith has reminded her that she was thinking very simply. She was a little scared. After all, she's only 18 years old and just a young girl. Suddenly she was asked to be a wife and a mother, which was a little difficult for her to accept.

"I... Can I step back?" Anna Stark's voice trembled.

"No way!" Jack Smith got angry at her stupid question.

"It's your pleasure to marry a great man like Mr. Taylor." Jack Smith said. If it's not because of the injury, this little girl cannot get the chance to marry him.

"I know." Anna Stark nodded. There is no way back.

When the rain stops outside, Anna Stark thought that she should leave. Before leaving, she did not forget to say hello to her new husband Daniel Taylor, "Sir, I am going back."

Daniel Taylor's eyes fell on her. "Come here."

Anna Stark walked up to him, Daniel Taylor stretched out his hand and gently held her. The warm touch of his hand made her tremble slightly, and she wanted to take back her hand but after looking into the sad eyes of Daniel Taylor, she stopped.

From today on, she became this man’s wife. Anna was thinking about this unexpected matter.
