Kimberly's POV:

'How did it go?' Mom asked as soon as I walked in, how do I say to her that Stanley is a jerk and a fool?

'Mom he is worse than I expected' I scoffed then went to my bedroom and shut it angrily.

My phone rang, it was my best friend, Layla.

I answered her call.

'Hey, Layla !'

'So was he cute and romantic or was he ugly and a total jerk ?'

'Ugly and a bigger jerk.'

'I'm so sorry about your future friend, but he isn't that ugly right? At least he has muscles right'

'I didn't check, but he had a fiancee already.'

'Ouch, now that's bad'

'I know right, let's talk in school tomorrow. I am tired Layla, I'll tell you everything tomorrow okay? later.'

I hung up the phone before Layla could protest and took a deep breath. Stanley was a jerk, how dare he call my family money hunters.

I know we are not as rich as the Williams family but we are filthy rich as well. To hell with him, if not for the fact that I cherished Senior Mr. Williams so much then I wouldn't have agreed to this.

All of a sudden, exhaustion finally weighed down on me. I crawled into bed and laid on my back, stared at the ceiling, and waited for sleep to come. A few moments later, I heard someone knocking on the door.

Rubbing the sleep off my eyes, I slid out of bed and opened the door, I found mom standing outside.

'Mom I want to rest please' I said in disbelief.

'Have you parked your stuff? Tomorrow after dinner, you will leave home,' Mom replied warmly.

'Okay'

I was sad, I could not help but wonder how this marriage will work. One day I was a normal college student and now I am married to a stranger.

'I will miss you so much'. Mom cried out and I sighed. I was still angry at them for doing this to me. How could they marry me off when I was just a baby and dad hasn't gotten the courage to talk to me?

'I have classes tomorrow, good night' I frowned and closed the door, slightly crouched down with tears rolling down my cheeks.

How will my coursemates treat me when they discover I am married?

I stood up and walked to my suitcase, walked to my wardrobe and took out my outfits, and dumped them inside without folding them.

My life is such a mess, Stanley is just a stranger to me and my parents are pushing me out to go stay with him.

I walked back to my bed and cried my eyes out, I have not yet experienced my first kiss, my first date and all but I was getting married already.

My eyelid slightly opened and I stared around. I checked the time on my phone, and my eyes widened in shock. It was already eight o'clock in the morning! I jumped off the bed and washed up as fast as I could. When I walked out of the room, I saw dad reading a book on the sofa in the living room and mom serving breakfast.

'Where are you going ?!' dad asked, I gritted my teeth not ready to talk to him.

'Are you going to ignore me forever ?' Dad did not even take his eyes off the book when he spoke. There was no emotion in his tone either, he has no regrets for giving his teenage daughter out to a stranger.

'Where else will I go to if not school' I said awkwardly with my eyes lowered to the floor.

'Eat something first.' Mom said and I sneered before walking out.

Later I parked my car at Willsburg College, a prestigious school in the city, then I walked in hurriedly as I was late for my Littérature class.

The instant I entered the class, the whole class went silent as the lecturer gave me a warning glare.

'You are late Miss Parker' he said in a stern voice and I nodded.

Without a word, I walked towards Layla and she had saved space for me.

'Are you okay ?' she whispered and I nodded before retracting my book.

After class, we both walked to the school canteen as Layla was starving.

'So you are moving in with him today ?' she asked and I nodded.

We ordered our meal and I wasn't that hungry so I ordered some juice.

'And what do you think will happen when you both move in? I mean at night and just the both of you'

I coughed as soon as she finished speaking. As if on cue, Layla handed me a glass of water.

'Can you please stop talking about him, I don't want others to know about my marriage' 

'My bad, so what should we talk about'

After our discussion we attended lectures in a row, Layla had to leave immediately after lectures but I didn't want to go back home. So I walked to the library and picked a book to read, I felt sleepy and slept off.

'Miss' I felt someone saying and slightly rubbed my eyes, I stared around and the library was empty and a lady stood beside me.

'I am so sorry, I will leave now' 

I quickly picked up my bag before running out, I received a message from Layla.

It read, 'Where the hell are you? Your mom keeps calling' my eyes widened in shock, I had a lot of missed calls from my parents.

I ran to my car and zoomed out at full speed, can't believe I slept that much.

In less than no time I stood in front of the mansion and there were cars parked in the parking lot indicating that the Williams were there.

Truth be told, I was nervous about going in. Then Kyle walked to me.

'Why are you standing here, go in fast' she said and led me in.

In the living room, the Williams family was having a chat with my parents while Stanley sat there with an indifferent look.

'I am sorry, I lost track of time' I apologized and dad stared at me angrily but I don't care.

'We already had dinner without you," Mom said and I nodded.

'Can we leave already?' Stanley asked in an impatient tone.

'Yes, Kim, your suitcase has already been sent to the mansion,' Mrs. Williams said and I nodded.

Now I had the chance to have a proper look at Stanley, and to be honest he wasn't ugly.

Stanley walked past me toward his car, if being disrespectful was someone then it would be him.

'Get moving please' He scolded from outside and I stared at dad giving him the look that says 'Really ?'

Seeing mom approach me, I walked out without glancing at her. Was this the moment where she cries out and hugs me then tells me to take care of my husband? Marriage sucks.

The Williams said their goodbye and walked to their car and drove out, now I had to leave with Stanley.

With a heavy heart, I walked in and he drove out without sparing me a glance, he is such a coward. Just yesterday he was so furious about the marriage and I thought he will elope with his pretty fiancee and all the blame will be on him, and my life would have been back to normal.

But no, here he is now ready to take me to our supposed home.

When we arrived, the house was brightly lit, and it was as quiet as a graveyard.

Stanley walked quickly to the door, and before I could react he was already out of sight.

I entered the house and it was well-equipped and large, at least there was enough space for me to be ignored.

'Why are you standing there, you sleep in the guest room' his voice echoed from upstairs.

Before I could reply and ask about my stuff, his phone rang, and I sighed, he had a huge smile while talking on the phone, so he could smile.

Then I heard my stomach roar, I haven't had a proper meal since morning and I was starving now.

I found my way to the kitchen and checked the fridge, it was well-stuffed with groceries.

After a moment, I made noodles and walked to the dining to eat when I saw Stanley walk towards me.

'Are you comfortable ?' he asked and I almost choked, why was he asking me a nice question?

After a moment of silence, he looked up at me.

'Jennet will be here tomorrow for breakfast, I just want you to know,' he explained.

I clench my fist as I swallow the lump in my throat, just want to let me know? What a great man. But did he have to say it just a few hours after we moved in? Well, I supposed I have no right to be hurt here, after all, I was just here for the name.

'I understand' I just nodded and continued eating but he was still there.

'Anything else?'

'Don't tell anyone about Jennet being in touch with me, you keep out of my affairs then there will be peace' he said in a warning tone
