All Chapters of 60 Days to Get Married: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I always thought that when my dad died I would fall apart, that I would feel lost, but now here, in front of his grave, I can only feel peace. My dad was my best friend for a long time; he was my rock, and even though I can't see him again, I know he left me with the best memories any father could give his daughter. He gave me all his love, he gave me the foundation for my business, and he gave me everything that no one else could have.When they finished burying his body, I noticed that there were many of my father's coworkers and business associates I'd never met. Although they had all offered their condolences earlier, now I truly had the clarity to see who was there.How curious that Uncle Clark isn't here... Knowing how self-interested that man is...When everyone had left, and only a few people remained, just those closest to the family, I noticed a man in the distance who appeared to be in his thirties.The man had a presence that disarmed you effortlessly. Tall, with broad sho

I started drafting an email to send him, just a formal email, letting him know I'd like to have a meeting with him. Before hitting send, I considered my options.I'll be 28 in exactly 62 days. When my father passes away, his investment and shares, which represent 30% of the total, would pass to me, except there's a will stating that this wouldn't happen if I don't get married. So, I'm left with 53% of the shares, because the other 16% is distributed among other investors, and Kathe, who helped me build this company, owns 1%. Technically speaking, I still own the majority of the shares. But many of those at that meeting were my suppliers and strategic partners. If they ally with James, they'll surely use termination clauses in their contracts or raise prices, so I'll decide to end their services.Damn.I sighed heavily and pressed send. I stood up and was about to leave the office to find Kathe and talk about it some more when an email notification popped up.I quickly went back to my

The woman approached and stood between Sebastian and me. I stood there for a second, unsure how to react or what to do. The woman was shorter than me, but she had an imposing presence that made me doubt everything; she had eyes as dark as night and short black hair perfectly tied up."Ma'am, I..." I tried to say."Mom, please," Sebastian said."Mom?" I said. "Then you must be Mrs. Blake...right?" I said, quickly standing up."Kristine Blake," she said, in a friendly tone. "You're Sofia Reign, aren't you?"I nodded."You look a lot like...your father," she said, as if hesitating before speaking."Ma'am... If you encounter any problem with Sebastian and me doing some kind of business together, I...""Oh!" she interrupted. "No, no. Don't think I'm a meddling mother. It's not that I mind you doing business together or being friends... It's just that... I wouldn't want you to get involved... otherwise," she said, glancing at the bed."Oh! No!" I replied quickly. "I... I had a minor anxiety

A few days passed normally, as normally as things could go in my situation. Some suppliers had begun to show their support for my uncle, and their true colors were becoming obvious. My stationery and ink supplier contacted me to say they had to raise prices due to external company measures.Similarly, one of my investors sent me a copy of a contract wanting to terminate his shares in my company, giving me 30 days to respond, and after that, I only had another 30 days to pay him the cost of his shares. He didn't even want to sell them to someone else; he just wanted the money. Currently, with the company's internal and external contracts, it's valued at at least $11 million. Si-Huan owns 2% of the shares, meaning I would have to give him at least $220,000, which I need to raise within 30 days...It wouldn't be impossible to raise the money, but with my uncle turning important businesspeople and investors against me, it would be nearly impossible to sell that 2% stake in this city. I co

He paused for a second, then finally picked up a napkin from the table, wiping his knuckles. He crossed his legs and made a face that indicated he was thinking."You already have the groom?" he asked me.My eye twitched as Carlos's face flashed through my mind again, but I nodded discreetly, still holding the ring in my hand."Well, then... Let me tell you that I sent the copy of the will you sent me to an expert analyst. He said he could have a valid result about it by next week.""Is he reliable?" I asked."Yes," he replied without looking away.I frowned, gripping the ring tighter.“What if the analyst says the will is valid?” I asked.Sebastian leaned back, his gaze heavy.“Then Lucas has more power than you think. And if it’s fake… someone forged it, and that means someone close to you wants you to lose everything.”His words echoed in my mind. Carlos’s face reappeared, the weight of the wedding pressing down on me. I didn’t know what was worse: marrying a man I didn’t love or di
