  • Chapter 1
  • Nyla’s POV
  • This is the day that I am marrying the man that I just met, Van Adair, who was engaged to me when I was six years old. This engagement was arranged by both of our parents when we were still young, it’s also the day before the day we had our tragic accident that caused my parents death. I could see a lot of people who were here to witness the most anticipated marriage between the wealthiest family in the century. They really have no Idea this marriage is just forced and not special at all in the slightest.
  • “Look at you Nyla, so beautiful with your wedding dress!” Jessica praised my wedding dress with jealousy in her voice.
  • I just smiled at her awkwardly “ Thanks Jess, but I think you are more beautiful with your blue gown “ I praised her back honestly.
  • Compared to how beautiful and stunning Jessica was with her bridesmaid gown, honestly I looked more like a clown than a bride. I think everyone is laughing at me silently and just pretending to be amazed by my looks today.
  • Jessica smacked my shoulder gently as she blushed in embarrassment “ Don’t be silly Nyliee, bridesmaid cannot be more beautiful than the bride” She said laughing calling me by nickname.
  • “That’s true Nyla, Jessica is just an ugly bridesmaid who is just jealous of how beautiful the Bride on her wedding” Clara agreed on Jessica and jokingly insulted jessica on her looks.
  • “Yes that’s true C-” she didn’t finish her sentence when Jessica realized that Clara just insulted her” Clara you're being mean!” She yelled at Clara who was laughing right now.
  • “Hahaha, so it’s true you are a clown and jealous of our beautiful friend right now” Clara kept teasing her.
  • “Clara!” Jessica yelled again at Clara .
  • Jessica was about to smack Clara in the face when I grabbed hold of Jessica’s arm to stop her from hurting Clara.
  • “Both of you stop fighting , you are both beautiful bridesmaids today at my wedding” I praised both of their looks and at the same time tried to calm them both.
  • Jessica and Clara just smiled at me as they both hugged me tightly “ We wished you happiness in your new life Nyla and do not forget we are always here for you no matter what okay?” They both said to me as comfort.
  • Their comfort and assurance made me happy that I could survive this marriage without any hardship. “ Thank you both of you” This is the kind of encouragement that I need the most.
  • And so the Wedding Ceremony had started immediately , as I slowly walked towards the center, everyone’s eyes are looking at me and it made my heart skip a beat nervously and making me question if this is the right choice that I made, Marrying Van Adair who I knew that hated me as his bride. If it was not one of the death wishes of my parents I would not agree in this marriage but I don’t have any choice but to follow as a payment on causing the accident that results in killing them.
  • It’s been years that have passed since then , I still cannot remember what had happened in that accident, as if my memory had vanished into thin air together with my parents death. I think this is my punishment for the death of my parents. I just hope my parents forgive me a little bit for killing them.
  • “Hey are you good?” A deep cold voice had interrupted my thoughts which brought me back to the present.
  • I glance at my soon to be husband Van Adair who is very handsome in his black tuxedo. I know deep inside this man is dying to walk away in this marriage and I don’t blame him because he was also forced.
  • “I’m sorry” I whispered to him in an apologetic voice.
  • “ What?” He asked in a confused voice.
  • “Nothing, let’s continue “ I immediately replied to him.
  • And so we continued the ceremony and in an instant we became a married couple, everyone was happy but the bride and groom were not happy and just pretended to smile in front of everyone.
  • “Congratulations on your marriage Nyla!” Clara and Jessica congratulated me happily.
  • I awkwardly smiled at them pretending to be happy” Thank you Jess and Clara”
  • “So what are you feel about being Mrs. Nyla Wixx Adair? The wife of the wealthiest and handsome man in the entire country Van Adair dear?” Jessica asked in an excited voice.
  • To be honest , I can already feel that in this marriage I will be a miserable bride.
  • “Happy I think?” I replied to her pretending to be unsure.
  • Jessica didn’t notice the change of my voice and just put her arms on my shoulder. “ That’s okay sis, you will feel it when you start to live with your husband!” She happily suggested.
  • Yeah that would be great, how I wished.
  • When the ceremony and reception is done, we immediately drive back to the house silently without saying anything to each other. I thank him silently for not saying anything because it is going to be awkward if we talk to each other.
  • After an hour of driving we finally arrived at the house , to where we will start living together and the first thing that comes into my mind, the house is going to be my prison in this entire marriage between Van and I.
  • Good luck to me.
  • “S-o…I will go up and rest in my room Mr. Adair” I spoke first awkwardly to him.
  • I didn’t wait for him to say anything because it would just hurt me hearing his cold voice. And we already arranged this before we proceeded on the wedding that both of us will sleep in different rooms and we both agreed on this.
  • When I was finally inside my room, I immediately lay down on the bed and curled my body as I silently cried miserably. I silently prayed to God that he would give me strength on surviving this marriage.
  • While I was laying down , my phone rang and so I went up to see who had sent a message. It was Jessica cheering me on that I will do good on our first night with my husband. I just silently laughed at her because it’s the opposite. Nothing will happen tonight, tomorrow or any day.
  • What can be expected of this is not a happy marriage but a miserable marriage instead.
  • The next day I had awakened early, So I decided to start preparing for the day and went down.
  • “Good morning Ms. Wixx” The maids greeted me with my original surname as Van instructed them.
  • I clearly remembered how cold and hurtful it was when he said it.
  • FLASHBACK
  • ** BEFORE THE MARRIAGE**
  • “ After we get married you will still be addressed on your surname okay? Because this is just an arranged marriage I have the right to demand that you be called privately in that surname because you don't deserve it but publicly you will be called as Mrs. Adair for the sake of my reputation “ He coldly demanded of me.
  • In short, in private I am not his wife but for the sake of his reputation I will be called as his wife publicly. Totally understand that I don't have any right to hope for anything from him, I could feel my heart being crushed and wanting to cry but endure it and just agreed on his conditions.
  • “I understand Mr. Adair” I agreed on his condition” And it will be the same on calling your name privately and publicly right? In private I will still call you Mr. Adair and publicly call you by your name right?” I asked and immediately replied without waiting for his cold agreement “ Okay I understand Mr. Adair do not worry I wont bother or be interested in anything you do privately and publicly I will pretend to be your happy Wife” I promise him.
  • Do not worry about anything, you can treat me as an invincible bride and I will try my best not to be seen by you Van Adair.
  • END OF FLASHBACK
  • “ Good morning, Where can I cook food?” I asked them, because I planned to cook my own food without bothering the maids of Van.
  • I don’t like them to think that I would boss them around just because I married Van and in the first play this is just a forced marriage . Both maids look at me with confused faces.
  • “Ah, I will cook my own breakfast if it’s okay to use the kitchen?” I stated my purpose and at the same time asked for permission.
  • “Ah Ms. Wixx about that matter-” The maids look each other still have an confused faces.
  • I immediately understood their dilemma “ Ah it’s okay , I just eat outside. I am really sorry for asking for permission to use the kitchen” I said to them in understanding and didn’t bother anymore with the maids.
  • I guess I'll be eating outside everyday starting now.
