On her wedding day, she made the most daring decision. Instead of exchanging rings with her supposed groom, she made a live proposal to the city's richest man - Miguel Winslow, rejecting her groom - Daniel. It was a game of recklessness but if it meant escaping her cold family, and her groom whose true identity she has just found out, she doesn't mind not being careful. She is an heiress but has never been treated as one. Many know her as a crying doll and people would never have thought she could be an orchestrator of surprising plans to come. Surrounded with lies, will she ever drown in them as she tries to tame her rightful path? And will the man that never honors invitations but ended up in her ceremony somehow accept her sudden request? _At what expense?

The bride's sudden question threw the hall into total silence. A white bird flew to the hall,and made a duck at the entrance then chirps before leaping up into the sky. The couples -to-be were standing at the altar and the priest had just read the vow to the wife but she asked that instead of saying "I do". A woman that was seated in one of the chairs in the front row gave her a look that threatens to break her bones if she doesn't quit her acting. Everything has been going on perfectly... The chest of the bride's moves up in her multi billion - dollar dress as she heaved out a deep breath. Her fragile fingers curled up into a soft fist. The priest casted her a look up from his glasses before looking back at the book in his hand,reading her the vow again. "Do you,Angela Wilson,promise to have and love this man as..." "Oh, priest..take a pause there."Angel's breath ruffles as she chuckled sadly. Her mother and sister were passing her stares that could kill. They were probably wondering what the heck she was doing in front of all these influential people. Angela's eyes fell on the man's cold gaze. He was sitting two chairs away from her sister. She smiled at him, almost unnoticeable,but he seems to caught that as his thick brows furrowed,dangerously. "I asked a question. What will you do if you find your to-be husband making out in the groom's area with another lady?"her eyes moves away from the man, now directed at the crowd,as she watched them speak to one another in hushed tones. "Crazy, right?!"her maniac laughter fills the room. A hand grips her arm and she turned to face her groom whose eyes were flaring up in anger. "Why on earth would you even go to the groom's room? That's prohibited!"he queried,in a spat... quietly. She scoffs then yanked her arm away from his grasp,pulling herself in a controlled state in order to prevent herself from murdering him. Her sister rushed to her side and brought a pink handkerchief out of her skimpy gown's outer pocket to touch up Angela's face. "Sister, just move on with the wedding. Don't cause a chaos else, people would think you're crazy. They won't even have faith in your words. You know how long it took for you to convince mom to make you get married? Now, don't screw that up - you might just fvck up your chance of building a family and remain single till earth grows an ear." Her sister's face contorted in disgust as she uttered those words. To the crowd,she is a caring sister, removing the beads of sweats on her sister's face,and trying to clam her down, but she's just a thorn in the flesh for Angela. Angela pecked her sister, Lena's cheeks, getting Lena's eyes to pop out in shock - not a pleasant one, but one dreaded. Lean's teeth meshed together,as she trembles and fought with the anger boiling up in her not to burst out that moment. She could just slap the damn out of Angela's face. She's always been known to wreak havoc whereever she goes. A bad luck girl that even killed their father she is! "So? Bride,what do you plan to do?"her mother's strict voice pierced through the thin air strongly...as if daring her,Angela, to do what she,was panning to do...but Angela has got another plan. Lena went back to assume her seat. Angela shot stares back at her mother who wondered where such a scared kitten, erstwhile, suddenly got a kite that took her on a ride in the moon that gives power. "Babe,it was just a misunderstanding,and you should have called me and I would have clarified the situation!"Daniel rasped. He still was not apologizing,neither feeling or talking apologetic. Haha. What a crazy life she's lived! Angela's head turned to the priest,who adjusted his glasses and wondered - has the bride been possessed by a spirit? Or... His eyes darted to the side in his glasses,as he contemplates - his mind flashing back to the previous day's incident. The evil spirit he casted out of the man that shaved the head of the six women he tried to marry bald, leading him to be imprisoned for times.. The priest's gasp. That spirit that is allergic to the joy of the person it possessed! Is it the one in her? "Priest,what shall we do to a man that cheats on his wife? No, fiancee. Since he hasn't wedded yet."she pulled her eyes up at him, expecting his reply. The priest was snapped back into reality. "What are you talking about? This is our wedding."Daniel stated,gruffly,grabbing her wrist,roughly. "Everyone,"he stared at the crowd whilst Angela was prinking at him in steaming rage. "I apologize for what happened here today. My wife seems to be out of it and.." Before he could complete his statement,Angela withdrew her hand from his, sharply,and quite savagely, shooting him a glare that could compel one to take the rope. "What do you mean wife?"she pitched. The people shook their heads in disappointment. Her mother sighed from where was and crossed her legs. "Mom,do something!"Lena mumbled in a strangled voice. "Just enjoy the free show for now,Lena."Abigail rubs her hair,lovingly.The previous night...Miguel."What do you think of the new project that is launching?" Pierre ask as I got into the car."I don't want to think now." A sigh left my lips.The door closes and soon, we were on the road. A message pops in on his phone and he took a peek at it before looking away."Why is everyone ignoring messages?" I yell at a moderate level in frustration."It's from Antonio - your wife's driver," He informed."What did he say?""I can't read and drive, do you want to check?" He pass the phone over to me.A wrinkle form up between my eyebrows when I read the text message. "Go to the bar at ...""Your wife went to a bar?" Pierre caught on to what was going on.I pinch my forehead before nodding, "I think she drinks."
Janice...I flip the pancake in the pan and look back at Jay who's been moody since that day.He has stopped trying to brainstorm new lyrics or listen to his old songs.He was just there, here in my apartment.After i was done, I place the pancake on three other and grab a glass of pure milk before going to sit beside him, shaking my hands out for Jay to help.He collect the drinks from my hand and i mutter a "thank you""The flour could only make four. Take two," I shove the plate before him.Like someone holding a grudge against me, he picked two.I watch the drama playing on the television with him when suddenly everything went blank."The subscription is out." he groans."Let's just enjoy our fo—" He stood up before I could complete my words, bouncing right out of the door and I scoff, my eyes dropping to the pancake in my hand.Why is he getting angry at me?I w
Angela. ..A message came in on my phone while I was taking a nap. I push the phone away but when I remembered getting a message from the unknown a day before and forgetting to reply, I sat up.I was right. It's from him."Ignoring me now, Mrs Winslow?" My eyes blur the other words out, its only focus on the way he addressed me - from miss Angela to Mrs Winslow?I took a deep breath in, "I forgot to reply you. Thanks for the information you gave previously, how can I pay you back?"He sent a laughing emoji which got my brows creasing. I wait for him to finish texting while grating my upper teeth on the lower one. I text back.He types for three minutes and while I was expecting a long message I got a short message that boldly encrypts the adage 'you're only a second and step away to death.'
Miguel...I drove to the venue Pierre sent after eating with Angela.The valet man collect the keys from me and i enter the double glass door."Mr Winslow," the manager has been waiting by the door for me."It's been so long." he trail behind me as I enter the lift."The chef has been working on new recipes recently, and I've got the cook prepa-""Save it, I've had food before I left home." I cut him off, showing him the back of my palm in dismissal.He followed behind me till we got to the room with no intention to retract in his steps."Do you want to see my guests instead? Here, enter." I kick the door open and pave way for him."Of..of course not, I won't even dare have such thoughts!" He bow before escaping.I scoff and step inside the room."You glow differently, Miguel." Racheal chuckles, raising the glass cup in her hand up to her lips for a sip."Exactly, what do you
Angela...I didn't have any words to say. Although, I had some formed in my head but I wasn't confident enough to voice them.Seated there on the ground by his side, I just looked on quietly as if he could read my mind and drink another glass of the drink.Moments later, Miguel came around and I stood up."Are you done?"I nod and pave way for him. I watch him pay his respect before rising up."What was with those tickets if they weren't from mom?" I ask. His eyes shut and mutter some words.What? Is..he praying right now?"Did..you just prayed? Have you been to a church before, do you even know the difference between bless you or curse you?" I threw a siege of questions at him when his eyes open."Your dad taught me how to pray," he turn, walking away.Eh? I follow him behind him, "you've met my dad before?" I ask.He press a button in his hand and the backseat door slide op
We branched at a store and after trying about ten dresses on, he finally picked the one which looks the ugliest to me as okay.He was rushing me back home but has no problem with sitting and taking his time to criticize every fabric on the dresses I'd tried out: Even if this is mother's plot, he seems to be pleased with it!"I'm sitting at the backseat, why will I sit at the front with you?" I scoff and jump inside the car."I can only wonder why you didn't bring Pierre to drive." I roll my eyes then carry the food.I take a drumstick out and sniff it. I haven't have any boiled chicken before."Only a rat sniff food before eating them."I pass him a glare before taking a small bite: I chew on it, chewed then chew again then my head moves in a satisfied nod."It's nice after all."I open the pepper and dip it inside before taking another bite.Hmm..I finish it in no time and look up at the man that
