CHAPTER 2
Yvrozz's lips lifted when he heard Zenah agree with his words. Although it looked favorable to Zenah, it was also favorable on his side. He won't let her slip away from his palmYvrozz looked at her with interest and spoke, “It looks like you will be my wife in the end. I'm gonna do my best to make you accept our marriage. What he said, really made Zenah clench her fist in irritation. He looked like a scheming man. She already know that no matter what she would do, this man won't let her get away from him. This man is persistent."Damn you. I've already succeeded to flew to another country to avoid the arranged marriage and then here you are asking me to be your fake wife and bear your child what the fuck is going on?! Besides, I did the background check on you... seems like your family is rich and it looks like you are doing everything in your hands just to inherit your family's businesses, am I right?"Zenah said calmly making Yvrozz chuckle."Of course. I didn't know that you did the background check on me. Are you scared of me that's why you did the background check on me behind my back?" Yvrozz teased her making her his annoyance."Why would I be scared of you? And also, I'm asking you politely to leave me alone. I'm not interested to be your fake wife that's why I'm asking you to find someone else. There are a lot of women around the world that would happily climb on your bed so why bother bothering this mortal?” Zenah couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh as she massage her temple.Damn, men are such troublesome. "No can do." Yvrozz directly rejected making Zenah look at him."What?""I said, I won't find another woman since you are already perfect to be my fake wife. Don't worry, after I inherited the businesses of my family, I will file for a divorce. How about that?" Yvrozz suggested making Zenah's face even more unreadable."Damn! I told you already to leave the fuck out of me alone. I'm not gonna be your wife after I escape to my arrange married. I didn't fly to another country just to find someone to be married to, besides I want to leave normally without worrying about something and doing something that is against my will." Zenah persists, making Yvrozz sigh."Tsk, what about this... let's play a game,” Yvrozz suggested, making Zenah perk its interest. “Game? What kind of game?” Zenah asked, completely curious about the game.Yvrozz silently cheered and spoke calmly. “A hide and seek game, where I'll be the seeker and you'll be the one who will hide. I'll give you a month to hide, no matter where you are or what kind of country you choose to hide, it's all up to you. If you managed to hide before the time is up, I will completely leave you alone and you know my background is simple as it seemed so within my power, I'll help you convince your parents that you don't want to get married at all. How about that, isn't that favorable on your side? Are you interested?” What he said, took an impression on her. But there are still loopholes in his words."So what if you'll catch me?" Zenah asked while raising her brows."If I will catch you, saying the word 'Found You, you'll be my wife and of course, you will agree and be my wife willingly," Yvrozz said making Zenah sigh before she looked at him straight into his eyes.As expected from him, a schemer. Tsk! He still hasn't given up on the theBut since it's also favorable to her and also her parents want to see her get married, anyway it's obvious that it's favorable to her so let's just accept this game. After all, it took an interest in her.Zenah calmly nodded her head, expressing her agreement. “Okay then, I'll accept your challenge. Also, I have a small condition to make...” "Okay, go on.""First, after you will inherit your family's businesses, you'll file the divorce and leave me alone. Second, since you mention to me about bearing your child after we divorce you'll lose the right to be his/her father, meaning you will act like he/she's not your child. And you will not sustain her/him anymore since I can do it without someone's help. Third, in that marriage that will happen, kindly cool off your relationships with other women or your affair with them since I also want to be respected, and what I hate the most is being cheated on, of course, you have the right to do so but since you agree with this kind of marriage you have no choice but to agree with my conditions." Zenah calmly proposed.After all, both of them have clearly expressed their intentions from the start so there should be no problem expressing their inner desires. Anyway, their marriage would be fake and just an alliance."Okay, that's fine by me... so, are you giving up already since you gave the conditions already?" Yvrozz teased her making Zenah roll his eyes."Of course not and I will completely hideous being prepared since we don't know what would happen in the future," Zenah said making him laugh."Yeah, you're right. Also, if I can't find you within one month, meaning you'll be free and you will win. But if I find you before the month then you lose and I win. I gave you one month to hide and I also gave myself one month to find you."Yvrozz said making Zenah nod her head to accept his suggestion."I'm fine with it. Also, I want to record your voice and you will also record my voice on your phone—on each other's phone as evidence that we accept the terms and conditions willingly." Zenah said while handing her phone to him.She doesn't trust the words of a man. After all, some of them are good at spouting nonsense and telling lies.Yvrozz chuckled, guessing what she was thinking, and calmly pull his phone out of his pocket to hand her his phone.Zenah started recording her voice using Yvrozz phone while Yvrozz did the same thing.Zenah first spoke to record her voice, " I, Zenah Quen Velasquez, an oath to be the wife of Yvrozz if I fail to hide from him completely. I will sacrifice my freedom to be his wife and give birth to his child. Also, when the time comes that he will inherit his family's businesses and properties... he will lose connection to me and he will file for a divorce. When the time comes, he will lose all the rights to be the father of my child. I will also vow to be good and to be loyal to him while we are together—in other words, while we are in the fake marriage situation." She said before she press the okay button to save her record to his phone.Yvrozz started recording his voice using her phone, "I, Yvrozz Jace Quivan, pledge my word to Zenah. I will treat her well and let her bear my child. Just as she said, after the divorce situation, I will lose all the rights to her child—as the father of her child when the time comes. Also, I vow to be faithful to her until the day that we will be separated. Then, if I lose our bet, I will do anything in my connection to pursue her family and tell them not to let her be in a marriage that is against her will." He said that he saved his recordings to Zenah's phone before handing them to her and she also did the same way."So, that's all. Starting the day that we will take off to this plane, is the day that I'll be hiding completely from you."Zenah said making Yvrozz nod his head."Okay. I'll give you one month to hide and of course, you can use your connections and skills to hide your trace while I'll also do the same thing. Make sure to hide completely since I gave you one month to hide. If you want to win, then do everything just to hide and not to let me catch you and said the word 'Found You' or else you'll be doomed.” Yvrozz jokingly said but even though, his words, in the end, are serious.Zenah raised her brows and nodded her head in satisfaction. "That's fine by me.""Also, to ease your doubts, I'll be staying at my penthouse for one month and after that, I'll start looking for you. Okay? And don't worry, I'm not the type of man who would over something like this but I'll do everything just to find you, except cheating so rest assured." Yvrozz said and she stared at him intently, examining his lies, when Zenah can't find the lies on his face, whether he hides them or not, she nodded."That's good. I trust you not to cheat and if you do cheat, then you lose and I win. Okay?" Zenah said and Yvrozz smiled assuringly and nodded."Okay. Let's start now." Yvrozz said before he take off the plane. Zenah forgot that they are already at the airport, arriving at their destination. She takes her luggage before she took it to the airport. Of course, they are both separated from their destination since Zenah is already planning to hide. But first, she must completely seal her traces in order not to let Yvrozz track her. She'll be doomed if he will found out her location.Zenah sighed as soon she reached the hotel, she will be staying here for 2 days while planning to hide completely her traces before she choose the country that she would like to hide with. Of course, along with her disguise, she must go shopping to buy make-up and equipment for her disguise. She's talented when it comes to changing her appearance using make-up, in this way Yvrozz won't find her easily. Of course, she would change her name as well as the name of her passports and make another bank account with her fake name.For today, she will sleep and prepare tomorrow since she's already tired from processing what happened earlier and how Yvrozz and her meet on the plane. She needs to digest it all as well as plan. Good luck to herself tomorrow, she will be really tired for tomorrow's another day.Damn. It's indeed a pain in the ass.CHAPTER 405 YEARS HAD ALREADY PASSED, Yvrozz and Zenah are already happily married. The wounds has already healed but the scars that caused by it was still remained. Even though there is a lot of conflicts and hindrance in their lives, they still strike and continued to survive. A lot of happened in the past but due to that, that's what makes them stronger and that's what makes them continue to survive in everyday.In those five years, there is no days that Zenah was feeling in pain and hurt. Yvrozz really did do what he promised to her mother, that he will make her happy for the rest of his life. In those days, Yvrozz was always the one who take care of her.Also, Yvrozz didn't accept any asset from his parents because he said that he doesn't need them and he wants to be the one to earn hard with his own strength and sweats for his family since there isn't two of them in the family because a new baby was born that's why he w
CHAPTER 39A LOUD bang was heard, shocking everyone who was there. Yvrozz immediately went to Zenah's direction as soon as Butler Zi and Ezekiel loosen the grip trying to stop him. He rushed to her direction and hugged her tightly."Thank goodness you weren't injured." Yvrozz said as he let a deep breath out of relief.They look at Zenah's father's direction, he was already kneeling on the ground while a lod of blood were dripping on his right hand where he used to point the gun at her."Should I just dispose you instead of letting you suffer?"That voice... it was none other than Yvrozz's father.So the reason why he isn't present earlier is because he was trying to find the key to unlock the chain that uses to bind Zenah's mother. Yvrozz's father immediately free her, as soon as Zenah's mother being free by Yvrozz's father, tears starts flowing to her eyes as she run towards to where her daughter.She hugged her tightly, "A-Are you o-
CHAPTER 38THANK GOODNESS that Yvrozz immediately catch Zenah after she was being tossed like a bowling ball by Ezekiel. Zenah glance at Yvrozz who was staring at her."What are you staring at?"She asked while her brow raised.Yvrozz let a deep breath as he gently hug her,"Should I just eliminate him? Damn him, he saw you wearing a gown and he even carry you like a bridal style. I should be the one who will do that to you."Zenah chuckled," Are you jealous? There no need for you to be jealous. Look at them..."She said while pointing at Zi and Ezekiel who were close to each other while they are fighting with the armed man.Yvrozz pouted,"Tsk... you almost got marry someone aside from me. Where's your explanation? I demand an explanation, 'ya know."He said while pouting.She smile sweetly, "I wasn't going to marry him, we and Ezekiel doesn't want to marry someone because we already have someone important in our heart that's why we can't be with each
CHAPTER 37ZENAH immediately covered his mouth, she glare at him, "You're too loud." She said and Ezekiel looks apologetic.They stop from moving when someone knocked the door, "Is everything okay? I heard Ezekiel said what?"Zenah glare at him and whispered something on his ear, "Say it, loudly enough for out father to hear or else they will be suspecting something."Ezekiel immediately nodded his head and took a deep breath before he spoke with a loud voice enough for the other people who are outside could hear his voice. "WHAT?! YOU LIKE ME?"Zenah start acting, the two of them were acting like they are confessing their (fake) love at each other.Zenah responded, "YES. I FINALLY REALIZE THAT NO MATTER WHERE I GO, YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHOM I ALWAYS THINK... MAYBE WE ARE MEANT TO BE TOGETHER."Ezekiel and Zenah badly wanted to puke but they endured it or else their plan will failed. They can't afford to fail or else they will be wed at
CHAPTER 36ZENAH sigh and she smiled at her mother after she heard her answer. "But, Ma, Do you regret falling in love with father? Do you regret choosing him and be with him?"She asked as her mother was braiding her hair.Zel smile sadly, "I didn't regret that I love you father because of you. You came from my womb, and you are made with us by love... even though your father is already became a psycho who do nothing but to hurt me and to hurt our precious daughter but still, I can't help myself but to continued loving him even though it hurts so much that I want to stop, because that's what's love supposed to be. Even though you are already hurting, you still can't help but to fall again."She said with a smile on her face."Father is a dumb person for hurting someone like you."Zenah commented making her mother laugh as she finished braiding her the. she put a light make-up on her face."My daughter is so beautiful but I want you to be with someone whom you l
CHAPTER 35ZENAH gasped in disbelief at what her father just said, "Come again?""I want you and Ezekiel to be wed by tonight, no more excuses and no more no's, if you don't want me to hurt your mother just listen to what I say. You need to marry Ezekiel because his father and he will be the one who will lead out business to success."He said with a triumphant smile plastered on his evil deeds."But... We are just friends and I don't want to marry him. I already promise you that I will mary a rich man and help you run the business to success so you don't need to go such lengths of making me marry Ezekiel."Zenah said while her eyes were begging her father not to let her marry Ezekiel.She doesn't want to be wed by Ezekiel! She only wants Yvrozz and nothing else! Why does everyone get's in their way and always tried to separate them. She only wants to love Yvrozz and be loved, but why does everyone against it? Why does the destiny won't let her be happy and love
