Chapter 1 ~ Arrogant lady ~

Inside an extravagant wedding hall,

In her white wedding dress, a girl looked like a fairy from heaven; she was none other than Eila King.

She stood before her husband, whom she had just married a few seconds ago. They became husbands and wives who would share happiness, sadness, and everything in their life with each other.

A big smile glued on Ella's face.

Even if she wanted to mask her smile, she couldn't, and of course, she wouldn't.

Why would she? She was on the nine Clouds of Happiness for the first time in so long.

The city's people present at her wedding looked at her with jealousy.

Also, some even thought she was too shameless.

But she was too lazy to think about the nonsensical thoughts of these outsiders.

Her eyes were glued to only one person: "Her husband, Aubrey Knight."

But his expression was opposite to hers. His face was like someone donated to him at an auction for free.

"You may now kiss your bride," the administrator announced emphatically.

Even after a few seconds of the announcement, Aubrey stood there without moving even an inch.

Everyone present started whispering and mocked Ella's fate.

But they did not know Ella was the fire that could melt everything in this world. Aubrey's icy character was nothing in front of her.

Everyone in A country knew Ella King was beyond the persistent and arrogant girl.

Just like when she wanted to marry Aubrey, but he rejected her, she had her way of dealing with him like she made him marry her even when he vowed not to marry her in front of the entire city.

Ella looked at Aubrey. "Please don't embarrass me here in front of everyone," Ella whispered, which only he could hear.

"Do you think I care about your embarrassment?" Aubrey responded coldly.

Ella felt a heavy stone hit her heart; yeah, he didn't care about her, so how could he care about her embarrassment?

Ella tried to breathe out, which stuck in her throat for a long time; she forced herself to gulp the breath and smiled at him.

She knew he wouldn't, but she could not humiliate herself in front of those people who were waiting for her life to ruin there.

Ella stepped forward and stood before him; he was 194 cm in height, but she was also as perfect as him. She was 180cm, and as a girl, she was perfect in every way, like him.

Ella gave him an evil smirk, which made him nervous. He knew she could do anything; he did not even believe her. Or never would.

Aubrey tried to take a step back from her, but she was fast, even faster than him. She caught his tie with charge and lowered his head.

"I know you don't care about me, but I cannot let these people ever see me as a fool."

Saying this, Ella sealed his lips with hers. Aubrey's expression was like the light hit him hard. Everyone was in shock as he was.

She rubbed her soft lips with his; she tasted like honey. Which was an addiction to him; he forgot she dragged him into this marriage for a second. And suddenly, her sweet lip's sweetness was gone like air.

Somehow, that disappointed him a little.

Ella wiped her lips with her right finger.

"Don't be too greedy." Ella winked at him playfully.

Aubrey's sympathy for her is gone after seeing her look, reminding him she snatched him from someone else.

He felt nauseated.

Seeing his eyes bore an awful look for her touch, Ella felt hurt inside her chest, tearing her heart into pieces.

It hurt her so much that she wanted to scream and say to him, "it hurts like hell."

But she knew if she did, he would think that was her other trick, so she hid the pain from him.

He already hated her enough that he wanted to kill her, so she decided not to increase that feeling.

Aubrey looked at Ella. "what you wanted; you already got it. From now on, expect nothing from me." After saying this, Aubrey turned around and left her behind without looking back.

Ella just looked at his back until he was out of her sight.

Still, her heart was saying he might come back, but he didn't

Ella gave herself a sarcastic smile. " Ella, Ella, Ella, what did you expect from him? Come back? Come back for what, for you? No, he will not. He left," Ella said to herself, cursing herself.

She turned toward where her wedding guest was mocking her.

"It's time to stand up for yourself. "

Ella took the mouth speaker from the officiant.

She coughed lightly on the mouth orator, made some noise, and caught everyone's attention.

When she saw everyone looking at her, she said,

"Hello, everybody; you enjoyed the king's family's extravagant hosting. Now the show has finally ended, so go home and gossip.

But don't forget to do it behind my back; if I catch any of you doing this in front of me or I hear something, I don't think anyone present here is capable enough to face my retribution, be careful with everyone's filthy mouth."

She returned the mic and left the hall gracefully, saying what she wanted to say.

As she was out of notice, the silent hall again became noisy, and everyone started whispering among themselves.

Mr. Robin King, Ella's grandfather, was sitting in the front line at the family table.

He sighed at her granddaughter's actions. That spoiled girl never listens to him; she does what she wants, just like today.

She was always like this, and why not? She is the one and only Princess of King.

Since childhood, she has had a dominant character; everyone spoiled her with no limit after her mother passed away. And to add fuel to the fire, her two brothers were always good enough for that.

They made her an arrogant lady and being of the King family, one of the wealthiest families in the A country, and no one ever dared to say anything about her; otherwise, those three brothers and sisters made their life a living hell.

Her brothers let her grow on their palms and nurtured her like flowers.

These two were the primary reasons she turned so stubborn and arrogant.
