Accidental Marriage : A Professor Love Scandal

A beautiful girl with long hair down her back hums softly in front of the mirror to adorn herself, aiming to look more beautiful than usual. She applies various types of makeup to her face, enhancing the natural beauty she was born with. The girl, named Airin, smiles as she observes the subtle Korean-style makeup on her face, further perfecting her beauty."Perfect!" she praises herself inwardly before reaching for the sling bag on the nightstand, draping it over her shoulder, and stepping out. She is about to meet a man known through social media.Airin, commonly called Airin, strides with high spirits to meet Zidan, a man she has known for almost six months through social media. This evening, Zidan has invited her to a fast-food restaurant to get to know each other better and perhaps establish a relationship beyond being social media friends.On this bright afternoon, Airin enters the fast-food restaurant they agreed upon the night before. While scanning the room, she places her pho

Even though her life feels desolate after Zidan seized her precious crown two months ago, Airin's life has gradually returned to normal. She begins to make peace with the situation, although her heart still aches from Zidan's actions and words that day.Since that incident, Airin has transformed into a quiet and reserved individual. While she used to be cheerful and talkative, she's now closed off. Airin also avoids gathering with her friends, something she used to do after returning from campus. Now, once she gets back from campus, she goes straight to her boarding house without stopping here and there as she did before."Airin!" called out a man standing not far from the campus gate. The man who disappeared for quite some time, the man who destroyed her future. Yes, the same man who still occupies the deepest corner of her heart.Airin knows someone is calling her name. She knows a man is trying to catch up with her because she doesn't turn or stop. She knows, but she has no intenti

"How is it? Is your husband there?" a woman at the other end of the call asked. When her call was answered by her cousin's younger sibling, who was assigned to check the whereabouts of her husband."No, Sister. But..." Fachri paused, carefully considering whether to tell or not the information he just received from the hotel receptionist. Information stating that, indeed, his cousin's husband came there last night but checked out at 2 am. More painful, the one who took the room key from the receptionist was a young girl. For his cousin's well-being, Fachri had to weigh carefully whether to tell the truth or keep it a secret until he found evidence and caught him red-handed. To avoid mistakes in conveying information."But what, Fachri? Is he there?" the woman asked again, breaking Fachri's contemplation about his decision. Ah, if only he were allowed to view the hotel CCTV footage, he wouldn't have to think so hard."No, Sister. He's not here. He said he already checked out, but he wa

Fachri let out a frustrated sigh as Airin quickly rose from her seat, responding to her ringing phone."Excuse me for a moment, Sir. I'll take this call." With a slight bow, Airin excused herself. Fachri couldn't stop her, especially since the call might be important, evident from Airin's swift departure."Damn. If only her phone didn't ring, I might have known who the guy she's involved with is by now," Fachri cursed inwardly. He rubbed his face harshly, regretting that Airin had hurriedly left. This was a missed golden opportunity, and he might not be able to get Airin to reveal much about her boyfriend afterward."With whom?" Airin asked as she reached the end of the terrace outside Fachri's third-floor office. She also made sure there was no one else around. She was confident the unknown number calling was Zidan's mother.Hoping for the same, as Zidan had mentioned his mother would call when things started improving."Is this Airin?" a woman at the other end of the call inquired.

Airin massaged her temples to ease the headache. Since earlymorning, she hadn't stopped vomiting, even though there was nothing left toexpel. However, the nausea would be quite bothersome if not purged. So, she hadto keep going back and forth to the bathroom, catching Sonya's attention as shewas now getting ready."Rin, aren't you tired of going back and forth like thissince earlier?" Sonya asked, curious about Airin, who seemed tirelessgoing in and out of the bathroom. Surpassing someone who was suffering fromacute diarrhea, making it impossible to stay still."I wish I wasn't like this, Onya. But my stomach hurtsbecause of catching a cold. So, I have diarrhea and keep going back to thebathroom. Do you want me to do it here?" Airin replied weakly. She crafteda sudden lie. It seemed impossible for her to say that the reason for goingback and forth to the bathroom was due to unending nausea."Oh, a cold. You pretend not to eat even when you'rehungry. Just because Zidan hasn
