Married On A Whim

After passing out from drinking too much at her bachelorette party, Amelia’s fiancé picked her up and brought her home to their apartment. After a long while, she forced open her eyes, holding back an excruciating headache. As her vision cleared she could make out the figure of a man and a woman kissing passionately in the dimly lit room.Amelia stifled a scream as she saw the scene before her. Her fiancé whom she was supposed to get married to tomorrow was in bed with her best friend Jenna.Like being struck by lightning, Amelia looked at the two in shock as they continued to kiss brazenly by her bedside. The anger inside her began to boil.“Jenny, let's take this somewhere else, Amelia only just fell asleep!" the man said as he pinned the woman down by her waist.“We've been together for the past three years, don't tell me you're afraid of your fiancé finding out about us now?" Jenna responded in an annoyed tone, "You are getting married tomorrow. Why don't you forget about everythi

At the Stone's Residence.Amelia sighed as she disembarked from the car. As much as she wanted to take over the family's business, there was nothing she dreaded more than coming back to this mansion.The mansion held many more memories than she would have liked to have. The good ones and the bad ones too.The mansion had no elevator, so she was forced to use the stairs. She wanted to be as quick as possible, avoiding contact and unnecessary discussions as much as possible.She entered the mansion hurriedly, increasing her pace with every step that she took.At this moment, Mr. Thomas, the chubby butler, ran over. “Amelia, you’re back! It's finally good to have you here after so long”“Please Mr. Thomas, I'm not here to exchange any pleasantries. Where's my father?”The butler’s gaze softened “This household has missed you so much, Amelia. Nothing was the same after you left.“You're wrong Mr. Thomas, everything changed after that night. There's nothing here for me”The butler quickly

By the time Amelia woke up the next morning. Nathaniel had already left for work. She quickly had a shower and prepared for her first day at the office.She stood in front of her mirror, smoothing out her tailored black pantsuit. The crisp white blouse and pearl necklace added a touch of elegance. She chose this dress to give off the bossy vibe. She gazed at her reflection, her eyes burning with determination. The position in the company was more than just a job to her.Arriving at the company, she found out that a lot of directors and shareholders had yet to resume. She had asked Mr. Thomas to schedule a meeting with them today, so she was perplexed as to why many of them had not yet shown up.She made a mental note to address that in the meeting. She didn't have trouble locating her office, she had been to this place so many times as a child that the memory was etched into her brain.As she stepped into the office she found out that it was almost the same as she remembered it, save

Amelia studied the files that she had asked for from Ann. She didn't look even one bit worried about the current situation of the company. She knew that whoever did this would be forced to reveal their trump card soon. For now, she could only wait.After going through the files she decided to do something else. When she researched about her husband, she only looked at the information concerning his name and business. If they were to live together, she should at least have ample information about him.Surfing the web, she discovered that there was no personal information about him except that he was Nathaniel Brooke and a rich businessman. No family photos, friends, or friendly gatherings of any sort.Well, she was not surprised. A man of his nature would want to keep his personal information away from the public.Since she was done for the day, she decided to go shopping. She also remembered that she needed to redecorate her home now. Well, she could call the decor company after shoppi

Over the next few days. The company’s stocks continued to drop drastically. Even the press was not helping matters as the news article was voraciously published widely all over the country. It seemed that the person behind this was fanning the flames to force her to step down.The executives of the company had all requested to have a meeting with her over this situation but Amelia had rejected all of them. She remained unbothered as she knew that the person would soon be forced to make a move.Today, she was going to choose a new head for the design department. Out of the two candidates she had considered earlier, one of them showed more aptitude for leadership. And she had even found out that most of the designs in the company were actually his work that the credit had been taken over by the former head.Amelia arrived at the office at eight o'clock that morning and as usual her routine, she went to check on a department in the company. Unlike the other day when she had gone round the
