Unforeseen Love のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Iris POV I was lying on my bed staring at the ceiling with a stupid smile on my face that, for the love of me, I couldn't get rid of. I couldn't stop thinking about last night. It was amazing. More than I thought it would be. I was glad that I didn't get up and leave. Julian and I, we had a connection last night. At least, that is what I think it was. I was afraid that I might be getting ahead of myself. I had only known him for a few hours, but somehow it felt like I'd known him for a while. I can't explain it. We talked and got to know each other. I opened up to him and told him a bit about myself. I would like to think that he was honestly open to me himself. Anyway, we just had a great time talking and laughing over a bottle of wine, and it felt natural. Like we had done that a thousand times before. Unfortunately, we couldn't ignore the big elephant in the room. Having to rush over to the altar to tie the knot over a marriage of convenience. It would have been better if fate

Meghan’s POV Since the day I pretended to be hurt when Julian told me he was getting married, and I asked him for a few days to myself, I've been spending time with Kaden. I must thank Julian because, thanks to him, I was able to be with the man I love, and it's been a whole week. I don't know what's going on with Kaden, but he was acting unusual, though I wasn't complaining because I had him all to myself. I thought that he would try to get me to go back to Julian, but he didn't say anything. Not until now. That was because of the texts and calls that I have been getting from Julian. I tried to keep my phone on silent but Kaden ended up seeing the messages he sent me. Now everything has changed once again. He turned cold and distant and I couldn't read what is going on in his mind. “ I think you should go back, Meghan. A week has been more than enough to keep him on his toes,” his voice was flat. “ No, Kaden. I don't want to go back now. You don't need to worry about it. I have g

"There!” my mom exclaimed, standing behind me with an approving and proud smile on her face. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at me through the mirror. Her happiness was slightly rubbing off on me. I liked what I was seeing as well. Thanks to my mom's efforts, I looked different from how I normally looked. A princess was what looked and felt like. My heart was beating fast in my chest and all sorts of emotions were going through me. I was dressed and ready to leave. This was supposed to be the best day of my life, but it's not. Neither am I marrying the man I love, so how was I supposed to truly feel? A little happy, sad, distraught, I couldn't settle on a feeling, so I decided to focus on how I looked instead. I felt good about how I looked. I was beautiful and I was happy about that. " Oh, darling!" my mom said and sniffled, teary-eyed. She was barely holding those tears in. " You look so beautiful, my child. I wish you could see yourself through my eyes. You look like a fairy.

Iris’s POV Well, isn't this just great? I remember my father rushing us over here thinking that we were late, but it seemed like we were early instead. The groom was nowhere to be found and so was his father. My father panicked thinking that the wedding was called off. He tried to call James Harrison, but he didn't pick up his phone. The situation seemed hopeless because we couldn't find out anything from anyone. That was until James's sidepiece came along with her annoying voice. My father leaped from his chair at the sight of her. I rolled my eyes and remained seated. I honestly wanted to be anywhere else but here. “ Hello Miss Victoria. I am so glad to see you,” father said with a smile on his face, but you could clearly see how nervous he was. “ Oh, Mr Hart. It's you. It's good that you guys are here, but unfortunately, it seems that you might have to go back with your daughter,” she said with a sly smirk on her face. She clearly was enjoying herself at the expense of our embar

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
