Chapter 16
Regan pov:-"I'm not even sure if that really happened. I must be dreaming a very bad dream, and this is going to be over soon," I whisper out loud while walking back to my apartment. I just signed my life away, and everything is going to change. I am no different from all the prostitutes who sell their bodies on the side of the road every night because what I did today seems identical to them. I sold myself to a billionaire and agreed to be his wife for two billion dollars? Am I that worthless?NO, what the hell am I thinking? I have to do that, or he would have harmed Shawna. I can live up to that day. She is my best friend, my only sister, and the only person left on this planet that I can call my family after my real family's death.I reached my apartment, opening the door in the middle of the night, the sky filled with lighting above my head, and there was no light on the street "hell, this lock is stuck again," I tried and tried, but that freaking lock dChapter 17: -With the morning light, I knew my new life was knocking on my door with so much force it might break me down. It's scaring me to the core, and it's making it hard to keep my head up and leveled with society. Things that should not happen are playing in my brain, pros, and cons, for my previous decision lining up on my blank brain board, but the cons are more than the pros. I have to go past this negative thought as soon as possible because there is no turning back now. I'm doing this for Shaw and only for her.With my last breath of negativity out, I made my way to my shower, getting ready for this day to get down and get over it. I'm going in to meet his family today, and then I will go for my dress selection and makeover to look like a lady from a good background. I haven't received a proper meal in days, and now it's showing its effect
Chapter 18Regan pov: -Yeah, let's go. Why not! I stood up with my fake enthusiasm and saw his smirk drop like a bomb.Haha, take that richly bit*h."Let's go then," he said, taking my hand into his, kissing my knuckle, making me simile for the heck of the show. But on the inside, I was gagging. 'let's move before I throw all excellent food on your face. I muttered under my breath.I might be incorrect if I say this house is big. Because it's freaking mention!! There were endless rooms, all having their separate bathrooms and walk-in wardrobe, these people were filthy rich, And here I am, who is struggling to put her one-time meal.
Chapter 19I was counting the seconds when something caught my eyes or more like someone."Hi," I screamed, stopping whosoever my lifesaver was. By the look of it, he looks like a butler to me. With his black coat and sleek hair, he reminded me of Herbert Cadbury from the cartoon of Richie Rich.Oh hell, my imagination is on. If you give me a yellow ribbon right now, I would probably stuff it in my face thinking it's a banana."Can I help you, miss"?"Regan, my name is Regan. I'm here with Alex, and I wondered if you know where the dining room is? I lost my way while searching for the washroom" He gave me a skeptical look but said nothing and started walking, waving his hand in a sign that said Follow me.So, I followed him like a lost puppy every turn. Every corner was a fascinating image of wealth and power. Every chandelier I saw was like a diamond hanging from the sky. This place was so beautiful but so sad at the same time. It was like someth
Chapter 20..............Regan pov: -With the energy I came up with, I turned my mind and body in Alex's grip. I turned, coming face to face with Alex, whose eyes could freeze the whole Niagara Falls. His stare down with his brother added too much to my dismay. When I looked back, Xavier's face was not any different than Alex's.It was like he knew that there was something more than it looked like. With every calculating gaze he sent my way, I realized that it's hard for me to keep my loving face up, For the task of being an ideal girlfriend will not be that easy.Alex's cold breath with a bit of warmth was sending shivers down my back.Bad Regan, evil
Chapter 21Every day after that day in the boutique was like a life of a fancy haze. The announcement of our marriage to the media. Distribution. Everything was like I was in a Disney movie, and the prince charming would come and fetch me from this misery, but I know it's not true. My life was not a romantic movie or novel; it was my real life where I have signed my life on a piece of paper to a devilish king.Today is the very day when I'm getting married to the devil himself. I was all dressed up to be the perfect bride. The gown was so beautiful that it's hard to define its beauty as it hugged me in all the right places. My hair and make-up were done by some high-class stylish, but it was not some high-class marriage like it should have been. There are only a handful of people in my marriage—Alex's parents, Best man, bridesmaid, and a few more people I don't know. I feel so alone that it's pinching me like a hole in my heart.I wish Shawna were he
Chapter 22He is an arrogant brat who is taking a toll on me; he is trying to break me and make me hollow like he is. But not anymore.I composed myself to meet his eyes for the first time after I gained the title of 'His Wife' and aimed as many daggers. I hoped he would tatter and break, but instead, he just walked off the altar to accompany his friend to the reception party, leaving me standing there alone but not for too long. A girl with blond hair came to help me off the altar with a cute smile."Oh, sweet Jesus, you are prettier than Xavier mentioned. You are beautiful." I was shocked that Xavier talked about me, but who is this girl. She was so beautiful that she could easily make any guy fall to his knee. Clutching my hand in hers, she led me outside, where everybody was enjoying my marriage. Xavier came and stood before us, his hands folded on his chest, and he was staring at the girl next to me, to which she blushed."Aisling, I told you to
Chapter 23: -I don't know what happened after I fell asleep! How I am in a bedroom, and who changed me. But I can see that its midnight, and nobody's home. The moonlight lights the room where I am. I feel so tired, exhausted perhaps, and hungry. So with another yawn, I got out of bed to get something to eat. I was wearing an extra-large t-shirt and shorts, and both of them were not of my size. Who am I to complain? The only thing I can wish for is, I hope it was not Alex who changed me. Because if he changed me, then I don't think I will be able to face him again.I never had a boyfriend because I never believed in love. I'm not planning to fall soon, but the thing I feel when the devil around makes my skin burn in a good way. I don't know why? That guy threatened me to harm Shaw. He makes me feel like a prostitute. So I don't think I should feel attracted to him.My stomach roared, snapping my attention back to it.'Hell, I think I can eat a human right n
Chapter 24'Anyways, why are you still here?" he asked. I gave him a confused look, and he shared that back…….Then when the realization hit me, "OHHHHH you mean 'why' I'm still here?" I repeated. Trying to be oblivious to the answer but failed. I sigh"You want to know why I am not on the Honeymoon with the husband of mine?" I asked.Xavier nodded like a kid, and I felt my stomach roll.Darn, you Alex now, how am I supposed to answer that? So I turned the subject?With a confused look, I asked him, "Xavier did you bring me in last night?" And I got my answer when his face became hard, and his stare became a glare."The question should not be that Cara mia the question should be, 'what were you doing out in the cold at three in the morning?' I was there to get you up because I sometimes live here. when I m around and I want to chill out I go to the pool. But fi ding you there at a time like that ....... it's not good you
