It was as if time had stopped. Everything around her became null. And the only person she could see was him.
The last person she thought of marrying.
Her idol.
She grew up with his cousin so she also interacted with him. They only spoke of simple greetings; there was nothing that could lead to marriage. They were just simple kids. There was no romance that blossomed between them. No childhood sweethearts of some sort. They were just kids who happened to know each other.
Growing up, she knew his talent for singing early on. And at that time, she knew that he was meant to shine. He was born to be a superstar.
She sincerely rooted for him.
She was his fan.
And now, she's going to be his wife.
How ridiculous is that?!
And just by seeing his handsome smirking face, her brain went haywire.
'What in the good novel is this?! I'm marrying my superstar idol!
Damn am I so blessed?!
Is this real?!
Is this a prank?!' she thought as she frantically searched the vicinity for hidden cameras.
“Dad, is this for real? Is Aias going to marry me?” she whispered to her dad.
“Huh, don't you know? I thought your grandma told you. We thought that you agreed because you're marrying him?”
Her hands that were holding the dazzling bouquet of flowers trembled as she neared Zacharias.
She couldn't stop her hands from shaking.
She was feeling all sorts of complicated emotions even before she stepped inside.
And now, she was feeling scared.
Scared of marrying her idol.
'Just how can I live with him?! His fans will eat me alive! How can I marry my idol?! How would he react if he finds out that I'm collecting his photocards?! How would he react if he found out that I attended all his fan meetings?! How would he react to the fact that the girl he's marrying is an avid fan?!' she anxiously thought.
But then a sudden thought came into her mind. And this made her stop walking.
'What if grandma forced him because they know that I like him?! All because I'm his fan... He...'
She was only a few feet away from him but she stopped.
The music also stopped. Only the deafening silence filled the hall.
Her father looked at her bewilderedly. “What's wrong, Lis?”
“Dad… I…”
Her guests all looked at her anxiously. They were afraid that she changed her mind midway and wanted to cancel the wedding.
She looked back to the entrance to prepare herself to go out. She did, however, notice her grandmother at the door, seated in a wheelchair. She was still wearing her old gentle smile as she watched her on her wedding day.
Looking at her weak grandma, eliminated all her plans to run away.
She bit her lip to prevent herself from crying. She grabbed her father's arm before gently pulling him along as she walked again.
None of the guests dared to speak. They all witnessed what happened.
The bride changed her mind. But she still went on. And this was all because of her grandmother.
They all unanimously agreed to never speak of this outside this church. They will keep their mouths tightly shut.
Phyllis and her father continued walking without the accompaniment of music. The musicians felt that it would only soil the bride's mood if she hears her favorite song playing again.
And they were right. Phyllis felt more at ease with silence. Hearing her favorite Luna song play before marrying Zacharias is just plain awkward.
When they reached Zacharias' side, her father placed her hand on top of Zacharias' big hand.
“Treat my daughter well. That's all I ask,” Harold seriously said.
Zacharias flashed him a sincere smile. “Of course, dad.”
Hearing Zacharias calls him dad, irked Harold. He suddenly had the urge to take back his daughter from this hooligan…
Hand in hand, the couple walked towards the altar to face the priest.
However, on their way there, Zacharias leaned closer to his bride to whisper something.
“Are you still going to run away?”
His low enigmatic voice tensed her whole body up.
“No…” she meekly answered.
He lightly chuckled. “Good.”
…
At the reception, the meal was served to all the guests.
The program is simple. They did not dare to drag it any longer because of what happened earlier. If the organizers still dare to proceed with the simple games they prepared then it would just dampen the bride's mood.
Everyone in attendance is a close friend of the families, Lohr and Lu. They were all filtered out based on their importance in the couple's hearts. So there were only a few guests aside from the immediate family. Given Zacharias' fame, they made sure that they are all trustworthy.
Zacharias' bandmates were all present at the ceremony. They went to Phyllis and Zacharias' table to personally congratulate them.
Cassiel beamed as he scrutinized his sister-in-law. 'I could cover my sister-in-law's face with my hands! So cute and small!' he mischievously thought.
“Hi, sis-in-law!” he energetically greeted.
Phyllis who was now surrounded by her favorite boy group is now thrashing her mind in delight. 'Oh my! Heaven granted me this very very rare opportunity of meeting Luna!!!! This is a fangirl's dream! I don't want to wake up! I just want to stare at their handsome faces! My gosh!!!!' she internally screamed.
Though she was rejoicing, she still maintained her cordial smile. “Hello,” she sweetly responded.
Ryder just nodded his head in approval. 'Sure enough, the frog's wife is pretty' he acknowledges her silently.
Rain politely offered his hands to Phyllis. “Hello, sis-in-law~ It's nice to finally meet you!”
Zacharias frowned when he saw Phyllis accept Rain's hands with a beautiful smile on her face. He unconsciously raised his brows as he stared at his friend's hands.
Feeling Zacharias' burning glare made Phyllis consciously take back her hands. 'What the hell~ Rain's hands are so soft~ I can die now that I held his hands!!' her fangirl heart couldn't help but be satisfied.
Yesterday, she was just watching them on her phone. She was just peacefully listening to their music…
But now…
She met all the members of Luna!
Above all, she married her ultimate idol!
How sick is that?!
Truth be told, she was on the verge of passing out. If not for Zacharias' sexy voice, she wouldn't even have the motivation to stand up.
She was still high with the drug called marrying your idol. And it would probably take a while before she sobers up.
Till then, she decided to just enjoy the dream of marrying Zacharias Lohr.
After a few speeches and inspirational messages, the newlyweds were sent out by their family and friends. On their way to their house, the couple did not utter a single word about what went down earlier. They just silently held each other's hands. It was a quick trip from the hotel to their villa. Their villa is just beside the Lohr family's mansion and a few minutes drive to the Lu family's mansion. Upon entering the gate, the car stopped in front of a modern two-storey house. The cantilever part of the house was supported by tall steel beams. It gave shade to the cozy patio underneath. This is where Zacharias meets his visitors so they don't need to go inside his house. As a famous singer, Zacharias is often plagued with ridiculous rumors. Sometimes, inviting someone inside the house would create a thousand stories. So he just decided to meet visitors outside to prevent such rumors. Zacharias held Phyllis' hands as he guided her inside his house. He was feeling bad for his
“Aias, to be honest with you, I didn't expect you to be my husband.” This made Zacharias raise his brows. “Then are you expecting someone else to marry you?” “No! It's just that, I never expected that you would agree to this! Did my grandmother force you?” Hearing her mutter these words, Zacharias couldn't help but frown. When Phyllis saw the change in his expression, she assumed that she was right. “I knew it! I'm so sorry, Aias! Because of me and my family, you were forced into this marriage. Don't worry, we can get a divorce!” When he heard her bring up divorce, Zacharias' patience finally met an end. “What do you mean by divorce?!” he asked in a slightly loud voice. This startled Phyllis. The courage that she worked so hard to collect went all down the drain. Her hands trembled as she hung her head low. Seeing that he scared his wife, Zacharias felt guilty. She gently took Phyllis' shaking hands and said, “I'm sorry, Phyllis… I was just surprised when you said that
The next day, Phyllis woke up alone on the bed. She didn't even notice that her husband slept next to her the entire night. He just got up early to avoid being caught. She stretched on the bed before checking her phone. “It's… two PM?! What?!” she exclaimed as she sprung up. She cannot believe that she slept until it was so bright outside. For the first time in forever, she slept like a log! “Woah~ What kind of magic does this bed have? I suddenly felt like my insomnia was cured~” she murmured as she rubbed the mattress. She laid back down again to laze around. She opened her phone to check messages from her friends. The first one she opened was from Rui. She sent multiple messages. [Girl, my uncle wants to invite you guys for lunch.] [Are you guys still asleep?] [I'll tell uncle that you guys are still tired and will cancel today. I'll just arrange it for tomorrow since I heard that Phylian's flight is next week. I thought we could have a family dinner.] Feeling guil
In a luxury mall in Lieren City, the three ladies strolled around the mall to shop for a few pieces of clothing. Phyllis just went out in her casual clothes while her besties were all dressed to kill. Rui Yoon-Eno just wore a pink maxi dress that hugged her pregnant body. Leila Parker flaunted her sexy body with a white lace bralette top, a fitted pair of jeans, and a cream blazer. They were all gifted with beautiful body proportions. But the biggest factor that enhanced their charm was their confidence. Women with confidence always look stunning no matter what they are wearing. As close as sisters, they walked side by side, as they usually do. Rui was the youngest, but she and Leila always sandwiched Phyllis to shield her from the others. This is due to the instinct that they developed when they were growing up. Phyllis was such a clumsy little girl who needs assistance even when walking. Plus, her two best friends wanted to match her pace of walking. Rui and Leila's legs w
Inside the car, Rui and Leila scrolled through their phone after sending Phyllis home. They read all the nasty stuff the people were talking about Phyllis, the vulgar girl. Leila frowned. “Wow, people really are so dumb! They even have the guts to talk about morals when they overlook the disgusting comments we, women, got?!” Rui just rolled her eyes. “Yeah, it's so stupid. And penis isn't even a vulgar word. It's an organ! What else should we call it then? Eggplant? Flaccid cucumber? That's dumb.” Thinking about how people decided to not visit Lu's family mall, Rui got an idea. She clicked the comment section to type in a reply. [Chase Eno: I'm the pregnant woman beside the girl you're bashing. If you don't want to visit her mall, you're also not welcome to our mall. We don't offer our services to perverts.] Upon seeing a comment from a verified account, people instantly replied to her. [How can you be a pregnant woman? You're clearly a male account!] Reading this response re
Zacharias stood up after stuffing all his stuff into his bag. He left the recording room earlier than usual. On the lobby of their floor, he saw his leader, Rain, talking to a girl trainee. Since he was busy with someone, he ignored him and headed straight to the elevator. Rain noticed that his member is now heading to the elevator. He waved at him while walking up to him. “Aias, you're going home now?” Zacharias just nodded at him. He did not even spare a glance at the trainee saying hi to him. “Then let me join you. I'm also going to the parking lot to get something,” Rain said. They entered the elevator silently with the trainee tailing behind them.
Zacharias got home around 9 in the evening. He was greeted by the housekeeper, Auntie Lisa. “Sir, I cooked dinner for you and madam.” By this time, he thought that Phyllis had already eaten dinner and was getting ready to sleep. “She hasn't eaten yet?” “Ah no… After going out with her friends, she went straight to her office. Since then, she has not left the room.” Zacharias just nodded. “Thank you, auntie. You can go ahead and rest now.” “Goodnight, sir,” she said as she went to her room. Zacharias then made his way to his wife's office. Once you enter the house, a massive TV hanging on a wall would welcome the guests, and behind that wall would be a hallway towards their offices. One for Phyllis' office, his music room, and his office. Phyllis' door was not completely closed so he could hear the sounds from inside. As he got closer, he heard loud curses from Phyllis. “...Ah!! Nekochan, go get that tail! Use your fucking bowgun!” Judging from what he heard, she seems t
After dinner, Phyllis headed straight to their bedroom to prepare her clothes for tomorrow's family gathering. She wanted to visit her grandma before going to the dinner that Rui arranged. She knows that her grandma can't attend the dinner so she will just take Zacharias to her. Her motives were clear. She wanted to let her grandmother see that she was getting along with the man she chose for her. She is, after all, the reason why she married Zacharias. Zacharias exited the bathroom while wearing comfortable blue sleepwear. He then went straight to the side table to fetch something. Phyllis, who had just left their wardrobe, saw Zacharias reaching for the drawer containing the gifts they received. Her eyes widened as she rushed toward her husband to stop him. “Ah! Wait, Aias!” He instantly turned to his wife. “What's up?” Phyllis grabbed his arm and pulled him towards the closet. “I have something to ask you… Come here.” “So tomorrow, I'll take you to the hospital to visi
