Alliyah Agustin-Astley

The event was a success.

I smiled as I shook hands with everyone who had attended on such short notice. Despite everything that had happened, Alexander made sure they promised to come again next time.

We apologized repeatedly for the blackout and the sudden disruption, but many of them only laughed it off, telling us that these things happened all the time and that none of it was our fault.

When it came time to announce the winner, it was a young man whose work had captu

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Eighty One: Pain

    Alliyah Agustin-Astley“Take her home—and the next time she goes out without any of you knowing, I will kill all of you.”That voice.Even in my half-conscious state, I recognized it instantly.I tried to force my eyes open, but the effort felt impossible. My head throbbed violently, as if heaven and earth were colliding inside my skull, crashing into each other over and over again. Every sound echoed too loudly, every sensation too sharp.“Sorry, boss. I didn’t even realize she didn’t get home. I thought—”“Stop assuming,” the voice snapped, cutting the woman off without mercy. “Make sure she gets home every single time.”The air felt heavy, tense. I could sense the fear in the room even without seeing it.Then, suddenly, everything softened.Warm hands cupped my cheeks gently, grounding me despite the chaos raging inside my head. A pair of lips pressed against my forehead—slow, lingering, apologetic.“I’m sorry, wife.”That was the last thing I heard before the darkness swallowed me

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Eighty: Party

    Alliyah Agustin-Astley“Isn’t that your tenth glass already, Alliyah?” William’s voice sounded beside me, laced with concern as he noticed me reaching for yet another drink.“Oh?” I replied after finishing it in one go, the glass clinking softly against the table. “I—I wasn’t counting.”“You should stop now,” he said firmly, placing a hand over the table as if to block my next move. “And don’t you think it’s time for you to go home?”I looked at him, my vision just slightly unfocused, and was about to nod in agreement when Chloe suddenly appeared beside us, bright and animated.“Oh, nonsense!” she laughed, waving a hand dismissively. “It’s only midnight. She’s coming with me to the dance floor!”Before I could protest or even process what was happening, she grabbed my wrist and pulled me to my feet. The sudden movement made me stumble, but she was already dragging me toward the crowd. I noticed Satana trailing behind us, laughing as well.That was when I realized my mistake.I had fel

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Seventy Nine: Guest

    Alliyah Agustin-Astley“Wow…so people really see hub—Alex on the news whenever he accomplishes something or does…well, anything?” I asked, popping another green grape into my mouth as I listened intently.So that was why we always had to keep up appearances back then. Why everything felt so calculated whenever we were out together—why there were always cameras, eyes, whispers. People were watching us. I honestly had no idea it was that serious.Earlier, curiosity got the better of me, so I asked about the gossip news I was in. Apparently, the biggest topic was why Alexander Astley suddenly got married—and of course, the public came to their own conclusions.They thought I was pregnant.I almost laughed when I heard it.God. At the beginning, that man only wanted an heir to satisfy the conditions of his father’s will. A wife taken from a debt, nothing more.And now…here we were. We were good, Alex and I understood each other. We knew each other’s feelings and reciprocated them.Yet I

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Seventy Eight: Changes

    Alliyah Agustin-AstleyThat night, Alexander didn’t come home.I tried calling him several times. Each call rang unanswered. I sent him messages too, watching the screen light up and go dark again with no reply. Nothing.It was odd. Alexander never forgot to update me when we were apart. Even back then, when everything between us was just an act, when we were only pretending to care for each other, he was always precise, always consistent. It had become a routine. A habit.And now that we were no longer pretending—now that we were slowly, carefully exploring the deeper parts of what we felt for each other—it felt like something had shifted.Something was wrong.I wanted to ask him about Victoria. The news of her death kept replaying in my head, tangled with the memory of knowing he had been holding her captive. But that wasn’t something I could ask over the phone.Malix and Claire didn’t seem to know where he was either, or what he had been doing these past few days. They exchanged

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Seventy Seven: Text

    Alliyah Agustin-AstleyI waited patiently for both of us to calm down, allowing the heavy emotions between us to slowly settle. The air gradually returned to something bearable, no longer thick with unspoken pain and memories. Thankfully, none of his secretaries interrupted us during that fragile moment, no knocks on the door, no sudden phone calls, no reminders of the world outside. It felt as if time itself had been considerate enough to give us that quiet space, letting us breathe, collect ourselves, and regain control while we were still caught in that vulnerable state.“My view of you won’t change easily,” I reassured, tightening my arms around him as if letting go would make everything fall apart. “And now…I’m just glad—and sorry—that you had to share such a painful part of your past with me.”My voice trembled despite my effort to keep it steady. “I’m sorry if I asked too much today,” I added softly.He gently pulled back just enough to meet my gaze, his hands still warm aga

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Seventy Six: Past

    Alliyah Agustin-AstleyWilliam and I managed to have a surprisingly peaceful conversation, despite Alexander’s presence lingering in the room.If I had to guess, Niali’s presence played a huge part in that. The way my cat sat calmly between us, occasionally meowing or nudging for attention, seemed to soften the atmosphere just enough to keep things civil.When everything was finally settled and discussed, William stood up from his seat and smiled at me, genuine admiration clear on his face.“Your designs are amazing,” he said sincerely. “I can’t believe how much progress you’ve made in just a few days.”I returned his smile, feeling a small sense of pride. “I’m glad you like them. Honestly, this still isn’t the best version I can come up with, but I already have more ideas in mind. I’ll let you know as soon as I refine them.”He extended his hand, and I accepted it, shaking firmly. However, instead of releasing it right away, he used his other hand to gently caress my now-captured han
