Semua Bab Tied to the Ice cold Billionaire : Bab 1 - Bab 10

I stared confused at the man supposed to be my father, his words once again shocking me. Is he saying what I think he is? Eileen would marry my boyfriend while I get married to a crippled man in her stead?“No!" I instantly refused, taking a step back while looking at the people supposed to be my family. How could they expect me to do such a thing? Throw my life away and get married to a crippled instead. “You're such a selfish child." Mrs Athanas spat, staring at me with loath.“How do you expect your younger sister to get married to a crippled man. Do you want her to suffer?” She asked and everyone else in the room agreed with her, each person staring at me like I was wicked."But what about me? What about what I want-” I start to say but I was cut short by Eileen's cries.“Mother, would I get married to a crippled?" She panicked, looking between both parents.“Of course not. Your sister would get married in your place. You would get married to Gabriel like you wanted.” Mrs Athan

Did you hear? A classmate is getting married to a blind crippled because he is rich." I hear a voice behind me whisper, causing me to look up from my book.Why does it feel like they are talking about me? And who would start up a rumor about me in school?A face flashes in my mind and I wonder why I even ask the question.Of course, Eileen would have done that.The people behind me couldn't see me because I was leaning against the tree truck which hid my entire body. “But I wonder who this classmate is. So shameless and desperate to be rich." A sarcastic comment came from behind me and I slapped my book shut, unable to concentrate."I heard that it was Ruelle-" Picking up my bag, I walked out. The looks on their faces changed to surprise when they saw me. “Ru-Ruelle..” the speaker stuttered, looking at me in fear."You're so noisy," I tell them, my lips curled up in distaste.“We are so sorry, we-" they started to apologize but I didn't want to hear their fake apology.I needed to

I blow out the strands of hair across my face, turning to look at my father who had slapped me.My cheek stung but I ignored it."We had sent you to school to study, but instead of studying, you're going around with men. You are a whore, just like your mother!" Mrs Athanas spat in disgust. Her eyes held so much hatred for me but I was already used to it.Her remark about my mother threw me into a fit of rage and I glared at her.They started this by calling my mother into it, they shouldn't blame me for the way I behaved. And she had said that I slept with a man? I didn't even need to ask who had told them such a thing because Eileen stood behind her mother, giving me a coy smile.“I was with a man, so what? Were you married to my father when you gave birth to your daughter?" I asked aggressively, watching as their faces changed. All through the years, they tried to hide that Eileen was an illegitimate child, giving her the name of a legitimate child.“Are you forgetting that Eileen

I turned around, coming face to face with Angela. Angela and I don't exactly see eye to eye. She has been my arch-nemesis since the beginning of the school year.“And what if I'm staying with a man? Are you able to deny that you aren't being sponsored by your sugar daddy?” I asked sarcastically, a mocking look on my face.It has been a known fact for a month now that Angela had a sugar daddy. I heard the news but I didn't pay much attention to it because it was none of my business, but her getting into my matters was something I just couldn't take.“You really are shameless,” someone laughed dryly, shaking their head at me.Beside Angela, her best friend sat. Both of them looked ready to banter with me for the rest of the day but I didn't have the time for that.I couldn't just exchange words with them like ai had nothing to do.“You guys stop it. The man she is staying with is her fiance. Even though they slept together the night before, there really isn't anything wrong with that,”

_Ruelle’s POV_I watched in disbelief as Erika pushed a cart into the room. She gave me a smug look as she walked past, stopping right next to Killian.“Hey Lian,” She called with an excessively sweet voice. I think I might get diabetes. “What are you doing?” Killian asked and I knew that he was talking to Erika, not me. His tone was flat and he stared straight ahead.A frown formed on my face when Erika stood next to Killian, she held his arm as she spoke.“Lian, you don't take care of yourself at all. Do you know what time it is? And you haven't even eaten,” She said while pouting her lips. I looked between them, the frown on my face deepening.Did Erika have feelings for Killian? Or am I just overthinking things? And what was that nickname she called him?I know our marriage was merely one of convenience, but I still didn't like the way she was around him. “I'm fine,” Killian said then pushed Erika away from him. I thought this was going to make her go away, but she doesn't.Er
