  • Unforeseen Love   Chapter 24

    Iris's POV I spent time with my parents and we reminisced about the old times. Things are settled down now since my father got a heart attack. Even though we lost our home, being together mattered more. Of course, I couldn't get my mother to stop nagging me about bringing Julian over and I just agreed to get her off my pack. I packed most of my essentials to go and I was planning on going back to the mansion later. My mom left my dad and I to take her beauty nap. We were left alone so I thought maybe I should just go to my room and check if I am going to leave anything important behind. Before I could get up ,my dad stopped. “Tell me, Iris. Do you hate me?”That question caught me off guard. I don't know how to answer that question. “What are you talking about, dad? Where is this coming from?”“Well, I just can't help feeling that way. I have absolutely failed you as a father.”I shook my head, tears welling up in my eyes. I hated to see my father so broken. We may not have the be

  • Unforeseen Love   Chapter 22

    Iris’s POV Okay. The wedding happened and I am now Mrs Harrison on paper. That's a lot and I think I am slowly processing it because I am yet to go crazy. I know, this is a real but kind of fake marriage. We have to live together and show the world a united front. I'm sure it's not going to be difficult to do since we all know where we stand. I've never lived with anyone other than my parents but I'm sure we will figure out how to coexist… peacefully.Our first time in our new house was a bit eventful but not bad none the less. All we need is our stuff and then we'll be able to start living in the house. I wanted to call my parents but I know my mother will just bombard me with a bunch of questions that I am not ready to answer. I sighed , still feeling exhausted. “Alright!” Julian exclaimed, pulling me out of my thoughts. “I'll go get ready at my place and then head to the office for the day. Are you going to be alright by yourself?” What? Is he going to leave me alone in this hu

  • Unforeseen Love   Chapter 21

    Iris’s PoV What the hell did I say? I casually called myself his wife and mentioned that we were husband and wife. I could feel the tension in the air. I just started rambling without thinking because I was nervous. I know the circumstances of our relationship. It's just a front and nothing more. I should clarify that to him. “ You do know, right?” he began. “ Know what?” I asked. He sighed as if what he was about to say weighed heavily on his heart. “ You and I, we are husband and wife in name only. There can be nothing between us. You get it, right?” He looked at me with desperation as if he was pleading for me to not be sad and understand. I smiled a little. “ Yes, I know. I didn't have any expectations when I was getting married to you. The reason I agreed to this is that it is what my father wanted. Nothing more.” He slightly smiled back at me. “ I am glad that we cleared that up. I don't want us to misunderstand each other. Now that we are on the same page, things

  • Unforeseen Love   Chapter 20

    Julian’s POVHot. I am feeling hot. It feels like there is something on top of my body, pressing me down. I am unable to move. My head is hurting a lot and my eyes are heavy. I can't open my eyes. What the hell happened last night? The only thing I can remember is getting in a car with… Iris? Ah yes, my wife. That sounds strange. So what happened after that? We were in the car coming back to the house my father supposedly bought us. And then what? I don't remember what happened after that. It's like I blacked out.I finally managed to peel my eyes open. I was in a dimly lit room with no sunshine coming in. Thank god. My eyes wouldn't be able to take any sharp light. I tried to reach for my face, but I couldn't raise my arm. Something was on top of me, pinning me down. I groaned. I guess that wasn't just a feeling. As I tried to see what could be going on, I saw hair sprawled all over me. What the hell? Someone is on top of me. I struggled to move because I am still weak.Hey, don't tel

  • Unforeseen Love   Chapter 19

    Iris’s povIt has been a long day. The ride back to my new home was long and uncomfortable. Julian was sitting next to me and I couldn't even look his way. I sat so straight that I didn't dare move an inch. I don't know why I am acting like that. Earlier, everything was just fine. Was it because we were not alone? I mean we are not alone now because the driver is with us as well. I am so nervous I don't know if I should just keep my mouth shut or try to talk to him. I mean, despite how we might feel about the situation, we are still husband and wife. We can't ignore each other forever. That would be so awkward.I turned to look at him, but his head fell on my shoulder. My body froze for a moment. Huh? Is he asleep? His head was about to slip off my shoulder, but I caught his head with my hand. His face was burning beneath my palm. I noticed that something was off earlier. He wasn't looking so good. He must be sick. I can't only hold his head as he sleeps. His warm breath was warming my
