Kyle's piercing gaze lingered on me, his patience wearing thin as he awaited my signature on the documents.

I clutched the dress I had hastily removed to my chest, desperate to conceal my near-nakedness from his scrutinizing eyes.

My mind seethed with indignation as I scanned the contract, the rules listed on the page dancing with mockery.

How dare he dictate terms that stripped me of autonomy? Rule 4, in particular, ignited a fire within me: "The Wife shall obey the Husband at all costs, without question or hesitation." Was he delusional, expecting me to surrender to his every whim like some subservient follower?

Signing this contract would bind me to Kyle, but it was a necessary evil to further my vendetta. I couldn't let my resolve waver now.

But they were nowhere to be found.Then, I heard the splash of water. Curiosity led me to the swimming pool, where I found Kyle and DK engaged in a competition. Their camaraderie was undeniable, two cousins having fun DK emerged victorious, smiling brightly as he reached the pool's edge but what caught my attention was Kyle's genuine smile when he followed suit. DK said something probably he teased him and his remark sent Kyle into a fit of laughter ,a deep, uninhibited sound that surprised me.As their eyes met mine, Kyle's laughter faded, replaced by a hint of self-awareness. DK turned to me, his smile still radiant."Enjoying the show?" DK asked, his eyes sparkling with amusement.I shook my head, trying to play it cool. "Just passing by."But my gaze lingered on Kyle, who had r

    I stormed out of my room, determination fueling my steps. I marched straight to Kyle's door, ready to confront him. But my resolve was met with a locked door."Open up, Kyle!" I yelled, banging on the door.Silence."So, you don't want me to meet up with your cousin anymore?" I demanded, my voice echoing . Still, no response."Can you just open the door?" I pleaded, frustration mounting. "You don't get to dictate your point of view without letting me share mine."The silence was deafening.His refusal to answer only fueled my suspicions. "Well, this reaction makes me more suspicious of you," I said, my voice laced with accusation. "Are you, by any chance, jealous?"The door swung open, and I stood face-to-face with him. His chiseled chest was bare, his eyes blazing with intensity.Our gazes locked, Kyle's expression was unreadable, but his eyes seemed to hold a hidden message.I stood my ground, refusing to back down."Jealous?" Kyle repeated, his tone incredulous. "Do you just throw

    After finishing our meal, we stepped outside into the crisp air "Let me drive you back to the company." He offered and I nodded, appreciating his kindness. We settled into his car, and he began driving."Uhm, DK," I said, my voice hesitant.He glanced at me, a hint of a smile. "Can't believe you called me that," he teased.I studied him for a few moments, searching for words. "Never mind," I said finally, shaking my head.DK's expression turned curious. "Okay," he replied, focusing on the road.The remainder of the drive passed in comfortable silence. As we arrived at the company, DK opened the door from his side, and I mirrored his action."Thanks for the ride," I said, stepping out.DK waved goodbye. "Best of luck with the reunion," he called out, his eyes sparkling.With that, he slipped back into his car and drove off, leaving me standing alone outside the company.I watched his car disappear into the distance, feeling quite grateful for our unexpected encounter. His words stil

    The next morning, I woke up refreshed and ready for the day. After a rejuvenating shower, I dressed elegantly, styled my hair, and headed downstairs.As I descended, I was taken aback by Kyle's transformation. He sat on the couch, looking dashing in a tailored suit, his left hand idly swirling a key around his finger. The bandage on his right hand was a stark reminder of his injury."Are you done?" Kyle asked, his eyes scanning me from head to toe.I nodded, curiosity piqued. "Are we going to work together?"Kyle shook his head, standing up with fluid elegance. "Not to work, but somewhere else.""So, let's go."I trailed behind him, wondering where we were headed. Please don't let it be one of those tedious business meetings.Kyle slid into the driver's seat, and I settled into the passenger seat beside him.~~~~~My curiosity grew as Kyle navigated the car through the bustling streets.Then the vehicle halted in front of an elegant bridal boutique. My eyes widened as Kyle stepped ou

I begged, tugging on his sleeve, my eyes shining with anticipation."We can get it tomorrow, sweetie," he replied, his warm smile and gentle tone softening the disappointment.Undeterred, I dashed to my mom, who was busy arranging colorful snacks on the kitchen counter for the party guests."Mom, can you tell Dad that I need it?"

    "I'm here to see your wife, not you," Harry said, his eyes locked on mine as he tried to step forward.Kyle swiftly blocked his path. "Anything you want to tell my wife, you can tell me."Harry's smirk twisted into a sneer. "Just wondering what you and your grandmother are planning now. Want to use this young lady for your games?"His words sent a shiver down my spine."And does she know that you're a murderer?" Harry spat, his eyes flashing with venom.I stood frozen, confusion and shock etched on my face. This wasn't the smiling Harry I'd met at the company. Who was this person?Kyle's anger boiled over. "I think you need to leave now," he growled, his fists clenched.Harry chuckled, a cold, mirthless sound. "Oh, I'm just getting started. You can't hide the truth forever, Kyle."

He strode towards a sleek car, presumably his.Before driving off, Harry turned back, his gaze locking onto mine
