CHAPTER ONE : Shattered Dream
Today has been really stressful, as I got insulted by my boss again. Aleric has been acting crazy for quite a while now and even threatened to have me demoted. Just because of what?

CHAPTER TWO: Her Decision
"You look very beautiful," Celine compliments behind me as she slowly caresses my shoulder, lowering her head with her cheeks brushing against mine.Our eyes meet in the mirror, and she flashes a quick smile at me. I quickly shift my gaze away, her touch feeling disgusting, and her presence alone makes anger surge within me."Are you guys ready?" Emelia's voice finally saves me from this demon, and Celine chuckles and then heads out of the waiting room.My fists tighten as I watch her leave, as today is supposed to be my happiest day, but I can't find a single bit of happiness thanks to her.My mind doesn't want to go through with this wedding, but I know the embarrassment, insults, and disappointment my family would face if I break it off.

CHAPTER THREE: Ruined
“Maybe it’s because of the recent events at my wedding,” I guess because I don't even know why the reporters are here.“At least, I am able to escape from them, that's good enough,” I let out a small sigh of relief and then make my way to Emelia's house, bursting through the door.“You guys won't believe…..” I pause when I notice the somber expressions on their faces.Sensing something amiss, I ask, only to have Katherine wordlessly hand me a laptop. My heart sinks as I stare at the screen, and I can't believe what I'm seeing right now. There, plastered across the internet, is a photo of me with a damning caption:"The Mayfair's Heir's Dirty Secret.""I understand now why the reporters are here, so he is a rich guy?" I share with them, but they continue to give me puzzled looks."Please, don't act strange. I'm already facing a new problem without resolving the old one," I explain to them, recounting how the reporters unexpectedly intruded on my privacy and then threatened to sue them a

However, my satisfaction soars immediately she slaps Aiden at the altar and runs away. My delight grows even more upon seeing a photo of her in a hotel with another man; it seems she has finally met her downfall. Little do I know that the man is Alexander Mayfair, the very man I have been trying to win over, only for her to steal him away from me once again.It later dawns on me that I have unknowingly orchestrated this twist of events by sending reporters there, trying to make a headline of a woman who abandons her husband at the altar and goes to the hotel with another man."Why does everything good thing belong to her?!" I yell in frustration, unable to contain

CHAPTER FIVE: Tricked
KILLIAN'S POVI'm in the middle of a phone call when I hear commotion outside. Hastily, I head outside to investigate and find a man throwing a fit. He claims to be the bride's boyfriend and insists on delivering a message and an item to her.“How about I help you give it to the bride instead,” I suggest and he hesitates for a minute before finally agreeing. He gives me a flash drive, and I inform him to wait for me while I deliver his message.I quickly rush to relay the situation to Alex, and we make our way outside to uncover the contents of the flash drive. The video depicts a woman surreptitiously spiking his drink before luring him to a bedroom, where she then undresses, climbs on top of him, and begins to simulate intimate sounds. Just as the scene unfolds, Ariel enters the room and sees them.“Destroy it and make sure you clear him away before we reach outside,” Alex orders, and I ask him why he didn't inform his wife before taking such a step."Do you think someone who ran awa

CHAPTER SIX: The Demon's True Form
ARIEL'S POV"You're tricked me! How could you add such a clause and have it written in such tiny words that I can't even see with my bare eyes? It's absurd and I'm being scammed," I fire at him angrily, but he only keeps laughing, and in anger, I squeeze the contract and quickly rip it into pieces, throwing it to the floor and stomping my feet on it."Wow... Do you think I'm a fool to give you the original copy? That's a fake one, and honey, or should I say sweetheart, you are free to file for divorce, but you must be prepared to pay that money. Do you have any idea how many lawyers are dying to pick up my divorce case? I doubt you will actually get any because they will be scared out of their ass to even pick a fight against me," he says, grinning. "Oh, I heard you are a curator at some nameless gallery. Do they pay you much? How exactly are you going to get that amount of money?" he teases, stands up, and then proceeds into his room. "By the way, I want Korean cuisine for breakfast.

CHAPTER SEVEN: The Family Gathering
WILLIAM'S POV"I stand by my grandfather's side as he watches the news of a protest going on in front of our headquarters. I can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction that this troublemaker has finally found himself in hot water, which is potentially going to benefit me."Turn it off," my grandfather orders Julius, his secretary, who promptly switches off the television."I believe we need to devise a solution promptly as this situation is already tarnishing the reputation of our company, and our stock values are declining," I propose."How about we suggest that Alex takes a temporary leave from the company until things settle down? It might be the best course of action for now," I suggest, hoping my grandfather will accept this as the most viable option."What do you mean by that? Are you implying he should be removed from his position?" the witch interjects, ruining my opportunity."And who do you think would take his place if he were to step down? Certainly not you, that's for sur

CHAPTER EIGHT: My Wife Is Pregnant
After greeting grandma, the maid informs us that the food is ready. Alex's mother helps her into her wheelchair, and we all make our way to the dining table. I just can't shake off the feeling that grandma doesn't like me, and I can't understand why. I know I'm not Alex's real wife, but that shouldn't warrant such cold treatment I'm receiving from her. She doesn't even acknowledge my greetings and just keeps talking to Alex's mother…. oh, I forgot, she said I should call her mom, who keeps replying to her with a fake smile. Now I know where Alex got his bad attitude and temper.At the dining table, as everyone takes their seats, I finally count the total number of Alex's family members.

CHAPTER NINE: The Intelligence
ALEX'S POVI watch Ariel falling down the stairs, and after she lands, I quickly rush to her. Concern is written all over my face, as I'm really scared of losing her right now. Well, I need to fake my emotions and pretend to be crying, but I already know she wouldn't die from the fall, just a small injury. I carry her up and quickly rush her to the hospital while everyone asks me what happened, but I have no time to explain anything to them; I need to save my wife.After taking her to the hospital, the doctor begins the treatment while we all wait outside.“Alex, what exactly happened?” Mom asks me, and I gently raise my head up and give a death stare at Vivian.“She did it,” I say, still fixing my gaze on her. “I saw the two of them arguing about something, so I was about to interfere when she pushed her off the stairs. I tried to save her, but I wasn't able to; she’s already rolling down the stairs before I reached her.” I say as all family turns to Vivian, who is already trembling i

I bury my head in between my knees, feeling lost and unsure of how to save Vivian without revealing the truth that I’m not actually pregnant. My mind is completely blank, and I can't think of anything. Then I suddenly think about my crazy friends; why didn't I think of that sooner?I quickly slip on my slippers and limp outside. I wanted to make use of the wheelchair, but since my leg is not that bad, I decide not to. However, as I open the door, I’m stopped by a giant man with a bald head.Fuck…."Ma'am, we've been instructed not to allow you to leave," he says.I'm shocked and can't believe Alex has placed a guard outside my room to prevent me from leaving. But I think he really underestimates me.“Ouch…Arrrghhh,” I grimace in pain."Is there a problem, ma'am?” the man inquires."I think I'm experiencing severe stomach pain. It's defin
