บททั้งหมดของ MY ARRANGED HUSBAND IS THE MAN I CHEAT ON HIM WITH : บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

- LORELEI -I watched the back of his body as he walks away from me. The slam of the door made me flinch and I sighed. My brows curled while watching him. This human everyone talks so highly and dirty about confuses the shit out of me. So far, I haven't witnessed any rude or harsh behaviour from him and it scares me. Not because I want to be treated badly, but because I'm worried he's waiting to make me his before showing his true self to me. I'm worried about what will happen if my plan doesn't go according to the way I want it to. It's the day after tomorrow, my wedding. Also the day I shall leave for the airport. I thought I had the whole thing figured out but now, I don't think so. I haven't left this house in days and it's not because I don't want to, but because he hasn't let me. I swallowed and peered my gaze on the floor. That's when I noticed I am standing in the same spot. I took a deep breath in and sighed. My ear plugs are still in my ears but I'm not listening to music

- LORELEI - After last night, it would be impossible for me to think straight. I woke up with a smile this morning.... brushed my teeth with a smile, ... had a shower with a smile. Styled my hair with a smile... I even painted my toenails today after doing a self pedicure with the cheap things I normally use. Right now, life feels great and it'll feel even better tomorrow! I rolled to the other side, hugging my pillow. It's tomorrow. I can't deny that I'm freaking out with a fast pumping heart, but I'm overly excited and trying to remain calm. At first, the fact that I was restricted from leaving the house and attending to my business got on my nerves, now that's the least of my worries, because soon, I won't even need to run that pharmacy. Soon, it'll be all over and I'll finally be with the only one I want to be with. I'll finally forget this torture I call life and be happy. My hand rubbed my stomach. Just the thought is giving me butterflies!! A grumble caught my attention. Th

- LORELEI -"My baby girl grew up so fast." Mother said, standing by the side of the door of the back seat of the Uber. I just loaded her boxes back inside. She raised her hand to my face and cups my cheek. I gently close my eyes and let my head rest on her soft, skinny palm wishing for something better. "I wish I could do something. I wish it didn't have to end this way." Mom added. My eyelids slid open and I noticed the tears forming on her face. I pulled her in for a hug. "Don't cry, please mom. If anything, you always helped me. Every step of the way. Having you as my mother and you staying alive for me was the best thing life gave me." I clenched my arms around her body, holding her so tight like I want to merge our skin. I don't want her to worry. Especially not now. I feel terrible for not letting her know about my plan but I did that for her sake. Mother is too fragile and I know Richard isn't treating her well at home. He hasn't said a word to me nor texted nor called since

- LORELEI -I barely managed to get out of their sight, but I'm glad I worked my way around it. "Thank you!" I said to the man who picked me up from the restaurant where we planned to meet. It's Alexa's driver. I didn't fill her in on anything but requested a driver. She sure is one to deliver very quickly. He waved and drove away. I took a deep breath in to calm my nerves. I wish I told Alex to get me some clothes to change into. Because right now, I look like a runaway bride and if Ace has noticed that I'm gone, it won't be long till he finds me. And if by chance his connection leads him here, I'll be easy to locate because of this damn dress that I can't get rid of. I rolled my eyes and rushed in. I need to find mom. Then I need to call Leo. If he's not on a plane, I thought, examining everywhere, looking for my mother. I think he should've landed over an hour ago. He's just here to pick me. I squatted and reached my hand under my dress to unite my phone from my thighs. I looke

- LORELEI - I feel sick. The feeling of being let down again despite my efforts makes my heart crumble over and over again. I stared at both my sides and sighed. sat beside me are two men, Ace's bodyguards. To describe how I feel as uncomfortable is an understatement but I'd rather be here than alone with him in his car. My throat tightened. In my everyday life, I always have a plan b because I always expect disappointment from anyone and everything. But not from Leo.... Definitely never has the thought crossed my mind that one day, the man I love the most would leave me shattered this way. I sniffed. I can't afford to cry in a car filled with strangers. They literally don't give a shit about how I feel as long as they follow their boss' orders and get paid, they'll do their job, irrespective of who gets hurt in the process. I took a deep breath in then out, fanning my face. It may sound weird right now, but I don't want to ruin my makeup.
