Chapter: Chapter 11: His Position Challenged?The road was dark, and it was very unlikely to walk on the streets with no visible lights. She walked forward with her instincts, having no idea where she was heading. Her heart felt very heavy, and she thought she might die in this lonely and desolate place without any lights. Just then, her vision was blinded by a warm light. She looked up and saw a hand reaching out.With excitement, she raised her hand, trying to touch it, but a hairy and cozy hand pulled her back. She felt that this hand was familiar and stared intently at the person's face despite the darkness around her. That's when she saw him."Asher?" she said with a shocked expression. Just then, she woke up with sweat on her forehead as she stared at her unfamiliar surroundings. She thought for a moment that she had been abducted by Asher, but she quickly realized that she was married to this "monster." Her wedding gown was still on, and it didn't look like it had been touched.She sighed in relief. She heard the

Chapter: Chapter 9: Not a bad ideaJuniper couldn't bear to look at the scene unfolding before her and turned her gaze away."Cole," Sunny called out in a warm voice, trying to get his attention."Yeah," Cole replied, still lost in his thoughts as he had been staring at Juniper."I said I want that set," Sunny reiterated."Okay, honey, let's ask around," Cole replied, his loving expression unchanged as he gently led her toward one of the store's employees.After inquiring, they learned that the jewelry set in Juniper's possession was the last one ordered and wouldn't be available again until next year."I'm sorry, sir, but this set was specifically ordered for Miss Juniper Reed. It's not possible to obtain another one at the moment," the sales clerk explained politely.Upon hearing this, Sunny, who was accustomed to getting what she wanted, began to simmer with anger."Then you will have to get me her set," Sunny demanded."I'm sorry, Miss, that's not possible," the sales clerk reiterated with a calm smile.Sunny, furi

Chapter: Chapter 8: Win-WinAsher was amused by her facial expressions and couldn't help but smile. "I know what you're thinking. You probably hate my guts now, right?" he asked.Juniper looked at him with a shocked expression. "How..." she began to ask."That's not important. What's important is why I called you here," he said, gesturing to the chair opposite him.Juniper didn't ask anything else and took the seat he pointed at."Your life is pretty messed up, if you ask me. I don't like you very much, but I also hate the fact that your ex-boyfriend is a loser, which triggered me," Asher admitted."He is not my boyfriend," Juniper replied. Asher shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't care about that detail."What I want is very simple. I agreed to this marriage because of my grandparents. I can help you with your crumbling company, and you can help me deal with the pressure from my grandparents," Asher explained."What do you want me to do?" she asked.Asher couldn't help but think that Juniper co

Chapter: Chapter 7: Asher againDays had passed since her outburst before Emily. Juniper sat with her parents around the dinner table, wearing a calm expression. She looked nothing like someone who was still going through a breakup. In just a few days, her life had turned upside down, but she didn't have time to care about any of it. Her determination to become powerful and strong fueled her thoughts, leaving little room for anything else.During these few days, she finally got to meet the loving and approachable old matriarch of the Knightley family, Sara. Juniper was a bit awkward around her, not knowing how to react. The old man was the complete opposite, neither smiling nor acting distant towards her. However, the one person she hadn't seen since their first encounter was Asher, and she didn't care as she had other things to worry about.Shane looked at Mark, and they both stared worriedly at their daughter. They had heard about what happened but didn't know what to do in this situation."Juniper, did yo

Chapter: Chapter 6: “ How could he?”Juniper stared at Asher, who was smirking at her. She felt in her heart that this person was emanating danger. But her father's words were something she never thought she'd hear."What fiancé? Since when do I have a fiancé I know nothing about?" she asked angrily."Honey, can you calm down? This is unlike you at all," Shane said, trying to keep things calm."I'm glad you noticed that, 'mother.' Or should I call you a devil? What parent would sell their daughter for their own benefit? And you could have done better; you sold me to this worthless piece. You guys have already done your worst. I'm out of here."Before anyone could stop her, Juniper was already outside. She saw an old couple coming toward their mansion, but she didn't have the heart or energy to speak to anyone. She got into her BMW and rode off without a care in the world. What would happen next with her parents was none of her business.Back in the mansion, Mark and Shane were terrified by Juniper's attitude when sh
