‎“Don’t marry him,” Anna said abruptly.‎“Do you have any reason for saying that?” Barbara asked curiously.‎“I don’t,” Anna replied. “But you know, you’ll be dealing with Sydney.”‎“Oh, you mean that lady who claimed to be Jason’s girlfriend at the party?” I asked.‎“It’s not just a claim. It’s the truth. They’re in a relationship.”‎“So?” I shrugged.‎“I’ll advise you not to marry him.”‎“But I have no choice. Mika—my horrible cousin—is going to take over after all my hard work.”‎“Isn’t there anything you can do about it?” Barbara asked.‎“If there was, do you think I’d be complaining? Mom has her reasons for this marriage. Neither Jason nor I are interested in it, but our moms are desperate. So, I guess I’ll have to do this for her.”‎“I support your decision, Alexa,” Barbara said softly. “Since your mom wants it, I’ll respect that. But from what I’ve seen, Jason must be very obnoxious and impudent. Don’t let him hurt you. And considering how your marriage isn’t based on love, you

Mrs. Stones sat elegantly on the couch, one leg crossed over the other as she scrolled through her phone. A photo suddenly caught her attention — Jason Anderson and Alexa Leonard were trending everywhere.“Jason Anderson and Alexa Leonard to be engaged in one week.”Her lips slowly curved into a sinister smirk. She opened the comment section.“Isn’t this strange?”“It’s definitely business-related.”“Maybe Alexa proposed — who can resist Jason?”“Or they’re hiding something.”“Do they even love each other? It’s so sudden.”“Maybe it’s arranged.”Mrs. Stones chuckled quietly.“Absurd,” she muttered. “Looks like it’s the right time to pay Suzan and Jessica a visit. They need to remember who they’re dealing with.”Her grin widened — cruel, confident, and dangerous.SYDNEY’S POV“What the hell?!” I screamed as I stared at the posts plastered all over the internet.Marriage.Jason Anderson… marrying someone else.I hurled a glass at the floor, the shattering sound barely calming my rage. I

“Erm…” I stammered.“You had no right to kiss me,” he said coldly.“I only wanted to prove to her that we’re really in love.”“Are we?” he asked sharply.I fell silent. Why was he even overreacting? It was just a kiss.“I warned you before, Alexa,” he added. “Don’t start building false hopes that we’ll fall in love. That will never happen. Think straight—and never kiss me without my permission.”With that, he walked away.“What an asshole!” I muttered, shaking my head. Why did I even kiss him?Barbara and Anna walked up to me.“Wow, calm down, Mrs. Anderson. That kiss was intense,” Barbara teased with a grin.I rolled my eyes.“Be careful,” Anna warned.“What do you mean?” I asked.“Don’t attract too much attention from the press, or they’ll start monitoring your entire life.”“True. Thanks.”“Treat him well tonight, okay?” Barbara added playfully.“Stop that,” I snapped.Jace walked over with a bright smile.“Hey, gorgeous.”“Hey, Jace.”“Nice kiss you had there,” he winked.“Would y

It had been weeks, yet Jason and I were still locked in silent malice.In front of the press, we played the perfect couple. Behind closed doors, we were cold strangers living under the same roof.I was slowly getting used to it.No one seemed to care about what was truly happening in our marriage—well, except the press.I decided to focus solely on the company and nothing else. Barbara had once introduced me to a dating app, but I couldn’t care less. I wasn’t ready for anything like that.Still, it seemed Jace had noticed the tension between Jason and me.“Hey, sister-in-law.”“Hi, Jace.”“So… what’s going on between you and your husband?”“What do you notice that’s wrong?” I asked calmly.“I asked first.”“And I’m throwing the question back at you,” I replied, folding my arms provocatively.“Alright, fine. I notice Jason has been cold and grumpy. Are you guys even on good terms?”“Your brother has always been grumpy. That shouldn’t be news to you.”“Well… he once had a smiley face.”

“I can’t believe this,” Jennifer exclaimed.“What is it this time?” Jace said lazily. “Let me guess—your celebrity crush Rick has a new girlfriend, or Kelly Hart bought another car, or you’re jealous of Ariana—”“Shut the fuck up and look at this!” Jennifer snapped, shoving her phone at him.Curious, Jace leaned closer.Alexa Leonard Caught Flirting With Another Man Weeks After Marrying Jason AndersonHis eyes widened.“Isn’t that Alexa?” Jennifer asked.“This can’t be her,” Jace retorted.“Check the comments.”THIS LADY IS SUCH A BITCHHOW CAN SHE DO THIS?NOT SURPRISED.
