Chasing after Him

PROLOGUE“Get out! You sl*t! I will never let you step in my house!” He shouted right in front of my face. My hands are shaking while packing my clothes. I was caught off guard when he grab my arms and almost throw me outside. My tears are flowing nonstop. I never imagined that this day will come, I never imagined that he will eventually hurt me like this. This is out of my fantasy, maybe I always fantasized about the image of him hugging me tight and saying I love you every morning. I always imagine myself being kissed by him and I forgot that he will never love me. All this time, I thought we were something. I thought he already loved me. I'm just assuming things, now he's in front of me, mad at me. I can't stand seeing myself treated like trash, I stand up and gather some strength to finally left our home. I consider myself his wife the moment I married him, but it felts like he never treated me the way he should treat his wife. I touch my tummy, Baby it's alright we can live wit

Chapter 2“Sign all the papers in front of you.” He commanded. I sighed and closed my eyes. I need to do this, after the contract, everything will be back to normal.I signed all the papers and gave them to him. He smirked as if he finally claims his most precious award. I can't stand the fact that I'm married now without my dream of walking down the aisle, kissing my husband. I just signed this piece of paper and I'm married now. All my hopes and dreams are shattered into pieces.He left me dumbfounded. He already gave me his bank account and let me visit my parents but before dinner, I needed to go home. Home.. this is not home felts like.I paid all the hospital bills and my Mom was shocked when I suddenly had money to pay all the expenses. I just assure her that everything is fine. I borrowed money from a friend.Just like what Canon reminds me of. I get home before dinner, the maids informed me that Canon isn't home yet. So I proceed to my room and rest a bit. I heard a knock on t

Chapter 4I grab his hand and brought him into the garden. I set up our dinner there and he didn't expect what I'd done. He remained silent and just stared at my setup. He looks so mad and left me there. I was confused by his reaction.What is wrong? I just thought it would be made him happy. He's confusing. Patience, Mallory. You will eventually get to know him more, just understand him. I'm on the verge of crying but I didn't let myself. I fear rejection but one thing learned from it, you have to accept that things aren't for you.I just stayed in my room. Tomorrow is another day, I will have a good day tomorrow. I woke up from the knock in my room, Tessa brought a paper bag containcontainingform as a secretary. I jump in bliss and hug Tessa. Finally, I've got a job. This is my dream.I was scared when I step my feet in the floor of Canon's company. I didn't see him this morning so I assume that he came to his work early than usual. I can't stand how rude he is, but I don't have any

Chapter 6I was dumbfounded when Canon said that. I can't describe how I felt. I felt like my heart was broken into pieces. I know he's rude but I sometimes wish that he will eventually change his personality. I know I needed to endure the pain I'm feeling right now.We rode back home in his car, and none of us talk for the whole ride. I just kept my mouth shut, I don't have any strength to keep up with his rudeness right now. I just sit there while looking through the car's window. I'm sightseeing the view outside, there are different lights from the stores and buildings we see along the way.I smiled to myself when I remember my precious time with Daddy. We used to stroll around the road at night and look for cheap food. I can remember how simple our life is, now we can't predict what will happen next.I lose myself and drown in sleep. I was awakened by the man's voice.“Wake up!” He shouted. I was shocked by the tone of his voice. It was none other than, Canon. He left me there the

Chapter 8I can't forget what happened yesterday. I hope Canon will eventually change himself so I will no longer need to deal with his rudeness. I quickly changed and ready myself to work. I went downstairs and I didn't see Canon. A driver also approached me that he will send me to the office since Canon go to work early.It's unusual for him to go to work early since he usually goes to the gym first to work out before he ready himself for work. He has a healthy lifestyle and he always disgusts me whenever I ate in-can food. He always eats a salad which is food for animals. Sorry to offend you guys but Canon looks like an animal. I laughed at my thoughts and the driver look at me as if I'm a mental hospital patient.I immediately look for Canon in his office but I didn't see him. Where the hell he is? Janice approach me as always, she clung herself to my shoulder.“Let's go to the mall later! I want to buy new lipsticks!” She said cheerfully, I just agreed since it's been a long time
