Seeing my best friend Wilson got married to my another best friend, Elena, I was more than devastated. How could Wilson marry someone when I had admired him for far too lang than one could even count? But I had another way to stop my sadness - get drunk to my heart's content which was a mistake when I woke up lying in a different bed. I had a one-night stand, and if that wasn't enough, I signed a marriage contract with this stranger. Or more precisely to Daniel Manzo, the CEO of Manzo Group. I must get out of this unreasonable marriage! Dalvin: "Wife, if you step out of this mansion once again, I'll make sure you're unable to walk for one week starting tonight!" I stomped on his feet and told him, "I'll break your feet before you break mine! Adieu!" Disclaimer: In the process of editing 11-15 chapters.

Chapter 1
Cardyn’s
I facepalmed. Just what the hell did I do last night? Sat on the very-soft-tempting-sofa, comfort was out of the question since I am in a dire situation faced with someone I would never want to make any deal. But…
“Forgot about your husband that fast?”
Crap. Can something hit my head so I can lose all of my memories just like in those dramas and feign ignorance about this man? Or should I call him my husband?
I stared at the registered marriage certificate between me and this man clearly, without a mistake, dumbfoundedly. I clicked my tongue, attempting to look cool.
“I… Sir Manzo, I pray that this is just one of the jokes you like to play?”
He slightly frowned, shaking his head in disagreement. “I’m afraid not. This is a real, legitimate, reliable, and credible marriage certificate between you and me.”
I slapped the table between us in slight anger, “Still!” I huffed, moving my eyes to him, “Last night was just a play.”
He smirked, “It wasn’t for me, unfortunately.”
Wriggling my brows, I could only scoff. Yesterday was my best friends’ wedding – Wilson and Elena. I had admired Wilson since we were young as we were neighbors. As far as I am concerned, in High School, we increased from two friends to three – Elena. My beautiful friend whom I thought was nice. Not until I got to know Wilson was pursuing her.
I never professed my love for him as I feared he’d leave, or I’d ruin our solid friendship. Not that I didn’t expect him to knock on my door and tell me he likes me. The least I wanted for him was to actually marry Elena and create a family with her. But hey, they had just got married yesterday while I, the dumbest of us three, went into a club and drank into my heart’s content.
In the drunkenness spur, I proposed to a man – the man I didn’t know would take my nonsense seriously. What I am concerned about was the fact that we spent the night together and registered our marriage while we were on it. This isn’t a drama, what the hell.
I never done one-night stands thingy. Perhaps it was driven by my sadness and regrets last night that I allowed myself to pounce on this man without any thought.
I clenched my fists, gulping.
“Sir, I… we only had a one-night stand but that was all into it,” I laughed the marriage certificate off as if I didn’t hear him saying it was a real one, “So let’s divorce.”
The man I called Sir Manzo, lifted his brows. He had an unkind expression as if threatening me for my boldness but what else can I do? He’s a freaking CEO, a famous bachelor, and been the talks around the women lately.
He hummed, “You say that we take things slow. Is that it?” His gaze lingered onto me, while I blinked my eyes. I remembered what we did last night I couldn’t be more embarrassed than I was. Never in my life would I think I was proactive, in terms of desires, that is.
I shook my head in response, “Let’s get a divorce.”
He pointed at my stomach, “What if there’s a baby in there?”
I hastily protected my stomach, looking at him in disbelief with a frown.
“We did it only once…”
“Forgetting things? What do you mean once?”
I touched my head. The only thing I want to do now was to get out and leave this place. Being with him for far long is making my skin crawl, causing my mind to divulge what we did last night – passionate and fiery.
I stood up, biting my lower lip. “Let’s divorce, Sir Daniel Manzo.”
“Wife, where are you off to? Your husband is here.”
I stopped on my tracks, facing him who was already taking long strides towards me. I held my breath, looking at him in fascination, reliving how he looked in flushed face, when he groaned against my ears and full of sweat. Before I could lower my head, he had already entrapped me between his arms – his eyes on me to which intimidated me.He leaned his face near her ears and told her, "Wife, should you leave this mansion again, see to it you won't be able to walk for a week.”
I widened my eyes then stomped onto his feet, resulting him to wince in pain and step back. He groaned, trying to say something but I intervened.
I pointed at him, “I’ll break your feet before you break mine! Adiue!”
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 15: Intentions The weather was nice and amazing. Like normal, Cardyn went to work with a grin on her face. Although she had missed Dalvin’s comforting warmth, she still slept just fine. On the contrary, Dalvin linked his hands, looking at Sofia in bewilderment. With a cold tilt of his head, he coldly asked her, “What is your purpose of coming in here?” She smiled, “I want to take you out to a meal.” She leaned her head forward, hopeful that Dalvin would take her bait. Unfortunately, Dalvin rose from his seat and showed his indifference. Sofia was upset about this but didn’t back down. “Dalvin, I merely just declined your proposal because I wasn’t ready yet. Look, now I returned to you.” “I didn’t want you to come back, as I have said.” Sofia snickered. “I called your mother who seemed dearly missing me for the past years I was gone. You got married while I was finding my intention and what I want in this life. Didn’t you get it?” Dalvin raised
Chapter 14Cardyn’s POVMy Perfect Abrupt MarriageSpeechless and caught-off guard, I stared at him with my questioning face. Unconsciously, my hands lowered on their own. Despite the fact that he was wearing a hat so as to not be noticeable by others, because of his tall height, great aura and presence, people around us can’t help but take a look at the man in front of me.Most of all, I was the one most surprised among anyone. How did he know I was here? No, first, why is he here?Without letting me ask him, he held my wrist, and then pulled me inside the car. Strangely, he was the one driving the car which only made me more confused. Was he in a hurry that he didn’t get to put on his coat and tie his necktie? I looked around at the slight mess to the back seat of the car, glancing at him before pursing my lips and putting my eyes outside as the rain wetted and made the sun shy to peek from the clouds. I closed my eyes, the feel of the rain dripping on my face was still vivid even
Chapter 13Cardyn’s POVLast night was a total mess. I fought with Daniel because of my stirred emotions. I closed my eyes and cooked my breakfast. If you are asking me where I was staying, well, at my work. Since I am the manager, I have the keys inside and fortunately, there are actually beds and three rooms inside where staff could sleep in their breaks. I used one of them to sleep last night. But I couldn’t sleep well because I was thinking about Daniel. Without considering his feelings, I hurt him. I mumbled, “I mean, is there even anything to consider when we’re not even an in-love couple? And do you know how foolish it sounds? A wealthy man like him found me amusing so he married me.” I scoffed, sipped the coffee I made earlier and flipped the egg and bacon alternately. I know I can cook a better meal for me but hell, this is my working site. I can’t simply use it JJust because I had nowhere to go last night, I had to be innovative. After finishing my breakfast, I opened the
Chapter 12Cardyn’s POV“Cardyn, are you going to see the exhibition at the Manzo Company? The news said it will go public so you don’t need an invitation.”Manzo? Isn’t that the Company of my husband? I awkwardly shook my head. I would rather not make a presence in such a big event. “I don’t want to go, my period has just begun.” I sadly looked at Linda who pouted. “Don’t worry, it will happen three days from now on. Maybe you have time on Friday.” I smiled, “I am fine. There will be other events in the future, I want to rest more than go to exhibitions. Not my forte.”“All right. I have to go out, the customers are flooding.”I nodded my head, “Sure, sure. I have to finish checking the ledger.” After exchanging smiles with each other, she left so I sighed and focused on what I was doing. Daniel never invited me to the exhibition and besides, I knew that he wouldn’t welcome me. I can’t wait to divorce him after six months, we’re really just pretending just because of duties. No,
My Perfect Abrupt MarriageChapter 11Daniel's POV"Uhm, Sir, your mother is making a scene downstairs. She said you don't let her inside your office so what she's doing is far better than nothing." I closed my eyes and sighed. I knew that she wouldn't be able to accept that I got married so soon with a different woman so readily. I have expected this much but it still doesn't feel good. I reclined deep on my chair, crossed my arms. The next second, I took off my coat and went outside with a click of my tongue. “Let’s go, I have to see the directors.” “But, Sir, your mother–” “Let her wait,” I commanded with a frown on my face. My secretary still wanted to insist but I looked away as a sign that I didn’t want to talk about it any longer. She had been bothering me after being aware of my sudden marriage. Even my grandparents are wanting to know what had happened to me that I went into such a thing without thinking too much. I sneered. Didn’t they hurry me to give them grandchildre
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 10 Although it was not my intention to be of burden of him, he still carried me all the way to the dining room, gaining the maids giggly attitude and shyly gazing at us but cannot make a comment on it. He placed me on the chair, while I feel embarrassed. He just carried me but why do I feel so affected? “See how much you troubled me.” he stated. I sighed, “I didn’t ask you to carry me all the way here. Did I?” Daniel shook his head, motioning the head maid to serve our meals. This would be our first dinner together. Well, I don’t know any more since I feel the hungriness taking over my sanity. After the serving, we dug onto our meals. I even almost coughed up the food I took since I continuously chew down on the food had it been not for Daniel for handing me water. I caught my breath, patting my chest, “Thank you.” He shook his head, “I think what you need is a caretaker.” “No need. I was just hungry.” He laughed, “No one will take your food
