My wife, my enemy! Now Mrs Hughson
Here comes the bride, here comes the bride! boldly blared through the huge speakers of the crowded hall.The corridors of the ballroom were filled with the richest one percent of Greenville smiling from ear to ear.The air was filled with celebrations of joyous faces including that of Grandma Jojo beaming with pride.It was a sad thing that from seven hundred guests, the only faces Avery could recognize as she strolled down the aisle were Mr Sinh and Wallace from the coffee shop.She looked around, desperately searching for her brother, he was supposed to walk her down the aisle but he was nowhere to be found.Avery was troubled by his sudden disappearance but she pressed on, smiling brightly and charmingly at the guests who were enchanted by her graceful beauty.As she approached the stage, she caught sight of her groom, Fredrick. For the first time since their first meeting at the coffee shop, Avery noticed how ravishing he looked. His tailored suit hung tightly on his body, making
My wife, my enemy! Fredrick means trouble!
Being a man who grew up with a painful memory of abandonment, Fredrick hated vulnerability. The mistake of trusting Claire had cost him his heart, he was certain that he had given out all his love.Still, he couldn’t deny that Avery had grown on him.His little charade on the way back from their wedding was as intense for him as it was for Avery.What he intended as a tease was slowly awakening a feeling he wanted to keep away.That he tactically drew a line between them did not stop the recurring flashes of their moments from flooding his mind.He was helpless by an incessant yearn to be with Avery, yet he was determined to keep feelings away from their contract marriage but the less he tried to think about her, the more he missed her.He had gotten to enjoy Avery’s company and presence. “Argh…!!!” He exclaimed in frustration, unable to fight the feeling that he actually wanted her.“I have to do something” he thought.He had to engage himself in something to relieve himself from t
My wife, my enemy! Temporary roommate
The next few days after the dinner night were filled with dodges and avoidances.Fredrick spent every day working tirelessly, in order to avoid contact with Avery.Avery spent every day studying for her Medical school entrance examinations.She was nervous about it, therefore she decided to give it her all.However, she was more nervous about bumping into Fredrick in the kitchen whilst she went to find food, but no sooner did she realize that Fredrick was avoiding her as well. She rarely heard his footsteps or his door creak open, he was almost never at home.Avery seized the serenity of the house to study harder, she was grateful to Adrian for gifting her the portrait of her parents.Every time studying felt tiring, she’d look at the portrait, motivating herself with the promise she made to her dad.“Whatever happens, I have to make it work!” She said, pushing herself to work harder.She had almost completed her task of the day when the door bell rang vigorously.Avery made no attem
My wife, my enemy! With love…
“I have an idea…” Avery began.“How about a business trip?”Fredrick shot a flaring sneer at her suggestion.“She’ll force me to take a leave and I can’t have that.”“Well, I can’t have this turn of events either.”“Why can’t you?!”“Because…”“Yes?”“Because you made this decision on your own…because you have been avoiding me all week. We can’t just be in the same room like it’s nothing.”“I’ve been avoiding you for your own good!” Fredrick replied.“Why is that a good thing?”“I can’t be with you”“Why can’t you?! Because I’m not Claire?”At that moment, Fredrick’s shoulders dropped in despair. He was shocked at Avery’s knowledge of Claire.“Nei-nei…” she whispered softly, observing his shocked reaction.“Nei-nei told me” “I’m impressed that you are even capable of love…” With that, Avery stormed out of the room, leaving Fredrick in his feelings.Feeling hurt and frustrated, Fredrick sat there contemplating what had just transpired between them. He felt betrayed by Nei-nei for giv
My wife, my enemy! Bittersweet
The first rays of the morning sun sieved into the room, leaving its warmth on Avery’s face.She opened her eyes to a strange surrounding and glanced around trying to figure out where she was.She fell into a daze of confusion about what had transpired between the time she was in the garden…“The garden, I don’t remember leaving the garden to this room” “I carried you” Fredrick replied promptly. He had been waiting to taunt her.At that reply, Avery jumped in surprise, she hadn’t noticed a second party in the room.As she peered around, she instantly recognized a figure laying wearily on the couch in the room.Her eyes widened in surprise as she turned to Fredrick.“You carried me?!” She asked, slightly embarrassed. The images of last night occasionally flashed through her mind.Fredrick nodded with a devilish grin on his face.“Yes, I carried you Avery Grah…”He paused as he realized she went by a different name now.“Avery Luca Hughson” he corrected himself, saying it out loud for
My wife, my enemy! Impudent Avery Hughson
Avery paced around the garden nervously, unable to settle or study. She grew increasingly frustrated and concerned about Fredrick.Just when they had navigated their relationship to a point where they could be friends, she felt sad that something had to change that.She heard the gate open loudly, she peered out into the distance hoping to find Fredrick’s car returning, she was disappointed to find that it was Grandma Jojo’s driver instead.She noticed Grandma Jojo come out of the mansion with her bags as she approached her.“I don’t think Fredrick is comfortable with me around.”“Nei-nei…” “That’s not it… I’m sure something is wrong, and it is not about you.” Avery said, trying to cheer her up.She was certain that Fredrick would never have a problem with his Grandma, but Jojo was adamant.“I know him too well to listen to you, dear.Stop making excuses for Fredrick, Avery, please.” Grandma Jojo snapped.“Yes Ma’am” Avery replied startled at her response.Observing her startled reac
My wife, my enemy! Leave, Claire, leave!
The next few weeks at the Hughson’s mansion was quiet and filled with tension.Fredrick had been avoiding Avery since their last fight, he had been spending his time with Claire and her baby.Claire on the other hand was trying hard to get even with Avery, she had felt belittled and embarrassed during their last conversation.“You have refused to tell me how you fell into a contract marriage.” Claire probed, trying to find a loophole, which she planned to use against Avery but Fredrick would not open up to her.“You have refused to tell me who the father of your child is. What happened to you?” Fredrick asked.“It’s a long story I can’t quite get out of my stomach. It is heavy.” Claire said, looking grave and sad.Fredrick’s heart immediately went to her and so did his body, he slowly leaned over to her, his head dizzy with emotions. Claire was his first love, his first love whom he hadn’t quite gotten over despite everything she did to him, and how much she wrecked him.When he saw
My wife, my enemy! We don’t have to be friends.
“Fredrick!” Adrian exclaimed.Particularly happy to see his in-law.At his appearance, the house went hushed with silence, Nei-nei gave him a stern look and he immediately cowered at her glare. His gaze went from Nei-nei to his wife, who stood smiling brightly like nothing was wrong. He was relieved to see her with Nei-nei, looking radiantly beautiful.“Where have you been Fredrick?!” Nei-nei asked, clearly displeased by his behavior.Fredrick was certain that he was about to get an earful from his grandma and he was ready for it.He partially came here hoping to be chastised in some way, he would willingly take all of Nei-nei’s earfuls.“I said do better” She began,“I’m sorry, Nei-nei” he said, approaching her cautiously. He wanted to hug her and apologize for behaving poorly, but he was stopped by Adrian who asked him to open the bottles of wine on the dinning table.“What are you celebrating?” He replied.“Oh no, Freddie!” Nei-nei exclaimed.“Your wife! We’re celebrating her succ
