บททั้งหมดของ His Accidental Bride: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

I sighed, rubbing my palms together and looking around the restaurant in search of him. 'Why is he not here yet?' I wondered, playing with my fingers. I have been waiting for my boyfriend, Dan for almost an hour but he still hasn't shown up and I was beginning to lose patience. "Heaven." I heard his soothing voice and broke into a smile, raising my head to meet his face. But the smile disappeared as soon as my eyes landed on him. Dan was standing in front of me with his fingers interlaced with a lady whose everything about her screamed -fake!- "Hey," I said dryly, finding my voice. I glanced at their interlaced fingers before looking at him. "Who is she?" I asked, trying my best not to sound harsh. My brain was cooking up different theories and I tried my best to ignore them but the flash of guilt and nervousness in his eyes wouldn't let me. I just hoped that I was overthinking it. A few minutes passed and when I still wasn't getting a reply from him I spo

The last person I ever thought I would meet here was him. The jerk from the airport. "What are you doing here?" we both exclaimed. I couldn't stop myself from glaring at him.The other two members of the panel stared at us questioningly."I should be asking that," he tutted."I asked first," I spoke, folding my arms across my chest.A smile stretched across the jerk's face. I immediately felt like smacking it off but I tried to keep my cool."I'm the CEO of Sheldon holdings and you are?" he cocked his head, weighing my reaction.Fuck. Why am I so stupid? He was fucking sitting among the panel, how could I have not figured it out?Damn. What do I tell him to change his thoughts? Can he just let go?I tried not to act surprised but my facial expression already betrayed me."Yes? I'm waiting for you," he spoke calmly now wearing an evil smirk. It was obvious, he knew what I was thinking."I... I..." I was dumbfounded. I had no words left.This can't be me. I always have words to say, I

HEAVEN"You had better keep your mouth shut! Claire is only busy, she would be back before you know it!" I tried to struggle from his grip but he was too strong for me.He was hurting me and I really wanted to get away as quickly as possible even though I wanted to annoy him more."I have no interest in women like you." He spat.I knew I was pale immediately I processed his words and the smirk on his face confirmed he was satisfied with my reaction.I exhaled and forcibly retrieved my hand, my lips in a tight line as I tried to compose myself. I was not going to allow him win this."Neither do I have interest in a slut following man like you," I grinned, staring at him dead in the eyes. His face mirrored the reaction I had earlier, his jaw clenched and I saw his nose flare in anger. I couldn't help but smile. Just what I wanted. But I never expected him to retaliate so quickly."Who decided to follow me around if she was not struck by me?" He had an eyebrow raised in way that show

HEAVENI did not want to do this. No matter how I thought of it, I wanted Claire back but then a part of me kept whispering to me the opposite of what I wanted. But.. Do I really have an idea of what I wanted?Mrs Maria had requested to that we should meet and Eliana was strongly against it, but when I looked at the amount of zeros remaining in my account- after I spent some in getting work clothes- I felt like I should really meet with her.I had walked into the cafe, my eyes scanning the place until they settled on her.Maria. I finally decided to meet her.Walking to where she sat, I bowed slightly."Good afternoon, ma," I greeted.She smiled and gestured to the empty chair in front of her. I nodded slightly trying to smile too as I took my seat."How have you been, dear?" Maria asked as she picked up her glass and brought it to her lips, taking a sip."Very well, thank you." I clasped my hands on my crossed legs.I wanted this meeting to end as quickly as possible, I was beginni

"What!?" the word escaped from my mouth before I could even bite my tongue. "Why that soon? What's going on, Maria?" I offered the fragments of thoughts I had left as every word in my head flew out as soon as the heaviness of her words settled in.Despite my outburst a few seconds– minutes ago, Maria was calm as she chuckled staring at my face.Don't look at me, I look crazy."I know it's too sudden but can we just do this and get this over with it?" Maria said, her eyes looking like they were drowning in sadness. I exhaled and squeezed my eyes shut. Why was everything turning around so quickly? Everything was moving so fast that I couldn't even process anything before another event occurs. Taking a deep breath and sighing, I said, "let's just do that but fill me in with everything." I know I had said that but inside of me, there was a war going on and when I saw Maria sigh like a load had been lifted from her and her eyes flooded with relief I could not help but question myself i
