“ You're going to be late, Tessa!” Her mother yelled from downstairs while she hurriedly put on her corporate heels, panting as she tried smoothing her hair at the same time. “ I don't even know what she's doing, isn't she supposed to have taken a leave already?” She could hear her mummy grumbling. Truly, she was supposed to have taken a leave from work for her wedding preparations which is two days away now, but she couldn't risk it, this was a three-month internship program, and top-performing interns would be offered a permanent position upon completion. Tessa had applied for this program to gain more knowledge and a job to help her parent who are currently facing financial issues due to their company going bankrupt. She had to support the family, even though her father had protested. Then one evening they sat her down in the sitting room and told her about the marriage that was not just an arranged marriage but also a business collaboration. She remembered how her heart had

Tessa quickly put on a smile and nodded, adjusting herself in her seat. “ I'm totally fine.” “ You seem lost in thought for a second.” “ No, it's.. It's nothi

Guests smiled. Applause echoed softly. But she felt nothing but ache in her chest, a pain that refused to die. Her hands were cold in his. Grayson Beaumont. Her husband.

She just trembled slightly as if internally wanting to disappear, wanting everything to end.The priest waited for the applause to die down before reciting the husband's vows, but Grayson's eyes were fixed on her.None of her sniffles escaped him.
