Chapter 1

Nicole:I had gotten used to the fatigue that came after a long day's work. At times like this, I could feel the pain eating away at my back, my head spinning as I tried to keep myself steady.But it was a good thing for me. I had no reason to hate it at all. This was what I loved doing and one day, I knew I would be able to do it professionally." Nicole! Oh there you are, I have searched everywhere for you" an old woman who had brought her sick son in a few days ago called me.I plastered a big smile on my face as I turned around to look at her." Hello ma'am, you look ravishing this evening. How is your son?" I asked her.She had a small blush on her face and a certain light in her eyes that had not been there when she first walked in with the cold body of the boy who had tried to commit suicide." He is fine, and it's all thanks to you. I don't know how I could begin to thank you. Your pep talk gave him the will to live again. If my son survives this chaotic year, I promise to nam

Chapter 2

Nicole:The gown that my stepmother had made me wear was ridiculously hideous with sleeves that made me feel more like a twelve-year-old than a mature adult.I sat in the corner of Tiffany's dressing room, watching the makeup artists adorn her face with makeup as she vlogged the whole thing." Nicole! Help me get a bottle of water. I'm so thirsty" she said, whining as usual.She had perfected that act, perhaps she thought it made her sound cute, I could not tell." You can send someone else," I said plainly.She pushed the hands of the makeup artist away as she turned to look at me, a small smirk on her face." Why have you been so bitter all day? What? Do you want to be the one getting married to a handsome CEO?" She taunted.I focused on braiding my hair back, not paying her any heed. She wanted to get a rise out of me and I knew it. I could not give her that satisfaction." Is she not like your older sister? And you are getting married before her? Oh, I'm so jealous of you!" One o

Chapter 3

Nicole:" And do you Nicole take Aston here to be your lawfully wedded husband? In sickness and in health, in poverty and In wealth, till death do you part?" The priest asked, droning on the age-long rites that everyone knew.I swallowed. I could feel the tension in the air and the numerous eyes staring at me, as though waiting for me to disagree so they could pounce on me and call me ungrateful. Remind me of my mother in the hospital bed, and tell me that if I wanted to save her I would have to get married to him.In the pew, Tiffany bit her fingers wildly, as though she did not care that the cameras may focus on her unexpectedly.My stepmother wriggled her fingers.I had taken too long to answer so she had pulled the gown up my body, nearly zipping my skin along with the clothes because of how rough she was.She had patted me on the back and whispered as my father came to take me to the aisle." I will make sure your mother lives," she said.I toyed with the idea of running away an

Chapter 4

Aston:I hated it. I hated how weak I had become. How powerless.I hated how my siblings looked at me with disgust like I had somehow managed to irk them by doing nothing.I hated the fact that when I wheeled myself through the hallways I could hear the servants gossiping about me.About the CEO who was once so powerful but had now fallen so much that everyone looked at him in contempt.When my aunt told me about the arranged marriage, I could not lie, I knew it was coming. I was surprised that it took them so long to finally decide to dispose of me.To get a wife that would do my every bidding instead of having to put up with me.That was how far I had fallen now.I was a bit surprised when I saw her. She was a very beautiful woman.Even though she did not look like she could hurt a fly, I could see through it. I could see the fire that burned in her eyes as she stared at me and I liked it.Perhaps this was a different scenario. Perhaps if I could walk on my own without serving as a

Chapter 5

Aston:My eyes snapped open and that was when I realized it was morning. I looked around, but I didn't see her around. Creased lines formed on my forehead, and I heaved, trying to figure out where she could have gone."I knew it. All she was doing was just to fool me. She probably saw me like a helpless male who needed pity,"I muttered with my face now hardened. My teeth were clenched, and my hands grabbed the sheet, but I snapped my head towards the direction of the door because I heard the door open. There she was, and surprisingly, she had a tray in her hand."Oh, you're up. Good morning!" She sounded enthusiastic. "I was about to come wake you up with--" "You made breakfast?" I asked to confirm because I knew there were maids ready to make anything at her beck and Call.Nicole nodded. "Yes, yes I did," she answered, using her legs to close the door behind her. I furrowed my brows, watching her movement."She cooks?!" I exclaimed. That was a first. I didn't expect her to be the o

Chapter 6

Nicole:Silence echoed. He had been quiet for a long time after I responded to his teasing, but I didn't expect such a question. Not only that, I didn't think I had the capacity to answer this question now. Was it something natural, or was it just me finding a way to make me happy by caring for people? Maybe that was why I was training. Training to help people all my life till I eventually retired. Not wanting to leave him hanging, I proceeded to answer his question. “Because it’s humane to care.”He arched his neck so he could have a clear view of my face which made me sigh. He was distracting my work. I had brought him out of the bath, and was trying to dry his hair, but him moving his head was making it difficult.Since he was making a big fuss about it, I decided to explain things to him."Fine, I'm a doctor in training, I guess caring for people runs in line with what I do," I explained, continuing my sentence. "Besides, there's something else I wanted to discuss with you aft

Chapter 7

Nicole:I was done with the day's work, but something else lingered on my mind. My mother's condition was getting worse, and since I had done everything my stepmother had asked me to go, it was time for her to play her part and help my mother with her treatment.“I hope she does as she said,” I expressed.“What's going on?” He asked, eyes staring at me with concern, and his expression dark.“N-nothing!” I stammered. I was worried that he was going to discover me, so I tried to make my expression more subtle.“Nothing's wrong, and your eyes are getting wet? I'm crippled, but not stupid. Tell me what's wrong,” he urged, his eyes still fixed on me, and if I didn’t have the ability to stay shut despite being pressured, I would have found myself telling him.“I’m serious. I'm this way because something got into my eyes,and that's all,” I expressed again, hoping he would buy it.He kept his eyes on me, but instead of sitting there, I stood up from my seat, and approached him.“You need t

Chapter 8

Nicole:“Leave my house now !” I heard her venomous words, and I found myself panicking. I had never been so worried in my life. For now, my worry was my mom, but I didn't want to give up. I was determined to actually make things work out.“You're throwing me out?” I asked with tears welled up in my eyes, but I blinked them back. I didn't want to give her the satisfaction of seeing me cry. That wasn't going to happen in a million years.“It’s what I should have done from the onset, but I let you stay here. Do you think you deserve happiness? If that's what you think, you better erase that from your head. You deserve to suffer. You and your mother?!” Her words hit like a hammer striking a nail into my chest.“You have no right to actually throw me out, this is my father’s house and you have to give me the money we had a deal. Would you rather me tell Aston about everything?” I tried to threaten her, but she laughed.“Do that, and you won't even exist by the time I'm done with you. Now

Chapter 9

Nicole:I noticed how his tone changed, and when I glanced at him, I noticed how serious he was about finding the woman who hit me.I panicked. It wasn't supposed to be so. He wasn't supposed to care about It. “I have to find her, and make sure she apologises to you. Have you seen what she did to you? Her finger marks are all over your face,” his expression carried creased lines, and a deep frown. “Please don't do that. I'm stressed. I know that there's a lot involved, but it's going to be fine. I just need to relax, and that's all,” I expressed, pleading with him.As if listening to my words, he didn't say anything anymore. He sighed, and allowed me to move to the room.As soon as I got to the room, tears welled up in my eyes, and I sobbed for a little while. I could see my mother's fate, but I couldn't accept it. I shook my head, trying to console myself. I went to take a bath to refresh myself, but after the bath, my cheek still hurts. “She must have really hit hard…” I mumbled

Chapter 10

Aston:I stared at her face as she slept Maybe it was because she looked as though she wasn't breathing. However, the moment I noticed her chest puffing, I exhaled.She almost scared me to death. Besides that, it was about one hour to the appointment, and she hadn't woken up yet. I didn't blame her though. Nicole had a hectic day yesterday, and she needed enough rest. Plus the movie yesterday was something else. She had fun and didn't sleep on time.As I contemplated on what to do, her eyes flashed open, and she gave me a chock gaze. Maybe because she didn't expect my face to be that close to hers. It was really strange. I immediately pulled my face away, and she heaved. “I'm sorry, I just didn't expect your face to be so close to mine. I got scared, and over reacted.” As soon as she said that, I brought up another topic. Hearing her say something like that made me feel strange.“Um, well thank goodness you're awake because the appointment time is in less than an hour.” At first,
