MasukThat isn't fair," I said, my voice cracking. "I cannot marry someone I do not love, no matter how convenient it is for you. "I am not going to do it!" I was shivering with wrath. Madam Angelica sighed heavily, her expression intensifying. "You're being selfish, Anna," she said. "It's not just about you; it's about the entire family and the future. I understand you don't want to marry someone you don't love, but I need you to understand the importance of this decision." I was at a breaking point. I'd always been a polite girl, following what I was taught and never challenging my family's judgment. But this time, I was willing to fight for what I wanted. My joy was too precious to sacrifice for the sake of family responsibilities. "I won't do it," I shouted."I won't be part of this arranged marriage" I clutched my bag firmly and dashed off to work in rage. Anna is forced by her mom to marry a billionaire suitor Kevin Beyer in order to save her family from the debt her late father caused them. Her mother reluctantly approves of the marriage without caring about Anna's feelings, Anna was left with no other choice than to marry Kevin. Anna wondered how Johnny, her boyfriend, would feel when he heard about this and how she would cope with the rest of her life as the wife of a man she didn't love. She knew that this arrangement would be difficult, but she had no other choice. Would she ever find true love or happiness in this situation ? What did her lover do on hearing about this marriage?

"No, I am not your biological mother," she admitted bluntly.Tears poured down my face as I struggled to comprehend her words. My entire world seemed to be crumbling around me."Does this mean my whole life has been a lie?" I asked, my voice trembling with emotion.Madam Angelica's response was icy. "If that's what you think.”I felt a chill run down my spine at her cold tone. "What do you mean, 'if that's what I think'?" I demanded, trying to keep my emotions in check.“Well it is very obvious how you are influenced quickly by a mere stranger's word.” She said, trying to justify her.“What do you mean? So what if I never asked about the real identity of my mother, is that how you are going to be quiet about it?” I couldn't help but yell.A surge of anger washed over me as the truth dawned on me. Madam An
~ANNA’S POV~I woke early, feeling refreshed and revitalized from a good night's sleep in Vicky's comfortable bed. As I cautiously got out of bed, I took care not to wake Victoria, who was still deep sleeping.I moved slowly, careful not to make any noise that might wake her up.I tiptoed out of the room, quietly closed the door behind me to keep Victoria's beautiful sleep undisturbed.As I made my way to the kitchen, the morning stillness was a pleasant relief from the storm that had been brewing in my head. I started making a basic breakfast, the fragrance of freshly made coffee filling the air.Just as I was about to sit down to drink, my phone buzzed with an incoming text message. My heart skipped a beat as I wondered who could be contacting me so early.Lura's worried message flashed on my screen: "Ma Anna, where are you? I hope you're safe?" Her concern was palpable, and I felt a pang of guilt for not checking in earlier.For a moment, I had forgotten to let Kevin know t
~ANNA’S POV~As I sat in the cab, heading home, my mind refused to shake off the lingering thoughts. The dizziness had subsided, and I suspected the intoxication from the shots at the bar had finally worn off.After leaving Johnny, I hailed a cab and headed home. But as we approached the mansion, I felt a sudden change of heart. I didn't feel like going inside anymore.All I needed was a safe haven, a place to clear my head and escape my thoughts. But the mansion didn't feel like the right place to be.I considered my options. Going back to Johnny's didn't make sense, and Madam Angelica's mansion was definitely out of the question. That left one other possibility: Victoria's place.But I would need to come up with an excuse for Kevin. I quickly called Lura to check if he was home, and luckily, he wasn't. I was sure that when he did come back, he wouldn't bother asking about my whereabouts.Lately, Kevin had been acting strangely. He had been avoiding me since his return

We had explored new places, danced the night away, and created lifelong memories.As I sat at my desk, sifting through notes and reports, my mind wandered back to Lisa's infectious laughter and our spontaneous adventures.The sound of my phone buzzing broke the spell. I glanced at the screen to see a text from Lisa: "Missing you already, my love! Mom and dad want you to come have dinner with us."My heart skipped a beat as I pondered the evening's events.
