Chapter 93 Reality

• I leap from my chair, pacing back and forth, feeling trapped. It's true, I agreed to a sham marriage, but not to this. For life? No! I can't accept that, we barely know each other! Besides, I have my life planned out, and there's no room for men in my future. I don't want anyone to make my children suffer. Although, I lied to them just now, telling them that this man who's asking to stay with me for the rest of my life wants to be their father, but he's not. Can I marry him just for them? What madness are you thinking, Isabella?
• "Bella?" Christian calls out. I stop in front of him.
• "We're not in love! How can we live like this, married?" I ask innocently, my mind not working at the moment.
