Semua Bab Broken promise : Bab 1 - Bab 10

Henry's POV.I was no hero, to save anyone in distress but I had no choice than to help Georgia.It was just me taking advantage of the situation–she was in need of money, I was in need of a wife.My need for a wife stemmed from the desire to ensure my inheritance remained mine, as somewhere in the family's custom, a married heir was more responsible.I honestly wouldn't have cared so much about the inheritance if my greedy uncle hadn't tried to steal what was rightfully mine.Marriage was the last thing on my mind but I had to make use of the benefits.Love…well, that was something I removed from my life a long time ago so a marriage contract was the best.I needed someone who wouldn't mess things up, and Georgia seemed desperate enough to protect the contract.However, she also couldn't be trusted. Just like how my own family secretly tried to sabotage me, anyone else could plot the same.I stayed on guard, alert at all times.My phone vibrated on the table, snapping me out of my th

Georgia's POV.“Why are you crying?” She asked, her arms crossing over one another.I drove a hand over my face, wiping my tears as fast as I could while racking my head for the perfect reply.“It’s just my best friend. She's going through a divorce at the moment. While comforting her, I ended up crying myself,” I sighed as I paced towards the door, hoping she bought the lie.Her brows contorted as she rubbed my arm softly, “Ohh…I'm so sorry about that. You have to be strong for her okay? You can even try to help them reconcile.”I breathed a smile, trying to hold back the urge to break down again.How can I reconcile with someone who is ready to throw me out of his life?I nodded softly as I clasped my hands together, “Yeah, you're right. I'd try to do that.” Kiara beamed, her lips curling into the perfect smile.“Alright then! I'll be in the kitchen if you want to talk..” she said, slowly stepping out of the room.“Sure, thanks.” I appreciated before watching her back disappear int

Henry's POV“Fine. I love you Georgia!” I blurted out, seeing that she wouldn't give in.And I've never felt more irritated with myself after saying those words.Pardon me, I don't dislike her or anything. But I detest saying things I don't mean, yet she left me no choice.Following my declaration, she dropped the knife, throwing herself into my arms.“I love you too!” She giggled and for a second, I wondered if she was still under the influence.Her hands slowly moved from my back to my torso, she caressed my body, and that made me pissed.I caught grip of her hands, “What are you doing?”“I want…” she stopped herself, driving her free hand into my hair.And then to my neck, and she pressed a finger over my lips.I knew exactly what she was looking for.But she needed to snap out of this hallucination real quick because I'm not going against the contract clause.I caught grip of her second hand, keeping it glued to her side.“We…we can do this later. I have to freshen up.” I lied, be

Mary's POV.Everything about my life changed after the accident.My face, my career, my family, everything entirely.I didn't think I'd survive the accident especially since it was a collision with another car, yet I did.Maybe I wasn't the same as before but at least I had life now.A new chance to live, except that I was being bred to live another's life. And I couldn't refuse because I was indebted to the one who saved me.I died an artist, and woke up a model. Thanks to him.It felt odd walking around this art studio, some part of the walls had strange looking frames and other parts were smeared with different colors of paint.Pardon me, I don't hate art. I mean, this used to be my favorite place. I just felt like I'd been away so long that I almost didn't belong here.I took another sip of my juice, walking around the area while my thoughts circled around the reason for me being here in the first place.Henry Ford.My lover.“I miss you so much. Come see me at the studio.”Recall

POV: Georgia"So, they're having a party..." Georgia muttered to herself, her knuckles becoming white around the wine glass she was holding. "Why are you celebrating?" "Is this humiliating for me?"The room was silent, save for the clock's soft ticking and the low buzz of voices coming from the opposite side of the hall. As Georgia came closer to the slightly open door, her shoes quietly tapped on the marble floor. She held her breath and listened.She could hear Anna's laughing insidehappy, light, and carefree. It hurt her ears.Andrew's voice came next, low but distinct."Anna, this will be something you'll never forget. We deserve this party."I understand." It finally seems right after everything. I can't wait.Georgia's heart beat so loudly that she was afraid they would hear it. She put her hand on her chest, and her nails dug into her palm.Georgia said to herself, "Right?" Do you believe this is right? "After everything you both took from me?"Her breath shook, but her eyes sh
