View More"Miss Watson, please sign in here and we may be completed with the registry procedure of the marriage." The family lawyer of Watson's said while pointing at some places on the file.
Sarah clutched the pen in her hand tightly after hearing him. Suddenly she felt suffocation. As if the words of the marriage registry paper were mocking and taunting her. Her hands started to shake as she looked down at the paper. Every word in the paper seemed to mock her, they were laughing at her, making her feel overwhelmed.
Today is the day when she gets married. The day when she gets married to the family driver who was sitting beside her but what an irony! She has yet to see his face. She doesn't even want to look at him. This marriage, she doesn't want it! Yet she is doing it! Why?!
Today is the day for which she was preparing herself from the last one week after her parents dropped the bomb on her, yet she is feeling so unprepared. Suddenly a lot of negative thoughts started to knock her senses, making her feel insecure and unsure. She didn't know what to do and why was she feeling like that suddenly.
What is she doing?! Why is she doing this?! She is going to bind her future with a man about whom she knows nothing about.
She will never give him any rights to be her husband. She will never. She will never let him come near her. Never. She will never accept this marriage.
"Sarah?" Someone softly called her name, grabbing her attention from those disturbing thoughts. She was sweating by then as she looked at her father with a pale face. She was looking as if she just saw a ghost.
It's been seven days since she and her father had that huge fight where her father demanded for this marriage which is capable enough to turn her life upside down. Since then she didn't return to her house and stayed in her apartment, away from this full of dramatic area, near to her event managing office, lost in thoughts. She kept her contact with her mom though.
Today, in this event, only six people were present. She, her parents, that man, the lawyer and Helena Watson.
Helena Watson was looking at her with a blank look on her face. She was expecting this kind of reaction from her already. She wouldn't be surprised if she backs out from the wedding at this moment and that's what she wants. It will make everything easier. It can happen.
Since Sarah's childhood, she grew up between lavishness. Her father has given her everything she ever wanted even though her wants were always really small. She definitely won't agree to marry a driver, leaving her life of luxury. That's why she denied having any function for the wedding. Whatever happens today, everything is going to be beneficial for her.
As far as she knew Sarah, she was sure that Sarah just took the marriage as a challenge, from which she was going to back out now because she may have realised that it's not a challenge but a sacrifice and a woman like her who is independent and hot headed is definitely not up for sacrificing her freedom like this. Also she is Watson! Class and social status is a really important thing for her. No way in hell she is going to sacrifice it for her father's wish.
Helena Watson smirked at her thoughts and thought to give some oil into the fire. Unaware of the fact that someone has seen her crooked look.
"Sarah, you don't have to do it if you don't want to. I understand that you don't trust my decision and that's why even after I said that he is going to be your perfect husband, you are still hesitating. You -..." She started to say with an assuring look when she was suddenly stopped by Sarah's next set of actions.
Sarah signed all the papers without any hesitation, leaving everyone present in the room shocked and bewildered. The room went pin dropping silent for a moment.
"Now, I pronounce you both lawfully married couples!" The lawyer declared after coming out of the shock.
The pen fell from her hands as soon as she realised what she just did and she looked at the lawyer with widened eyes before getting up from the couch in a bolt and ran outside the mansion in a blink of an eye, leaving her newly wedded husband behind. She didn't give him a look before running out.
She came out of the mansion and stood under the open sky of the bright night. She was taking deep breaths to calm her breathing down as she still couldn't understand what just happened. The words of the lawyer rang in her ears like a broken radio and she couldn't take it anymore.
She looked up at the sky which was exceptionally bright today which enhanced her beauty more. She is a beautiful girl with golden brown long hair and ocean green eyes, exclaimed while throwing her arms around in frustration. She had a model-like body and height.
She looked at the sky with an angry look and saw that the moon was shining brightly and the whole sky was filled with shining stars, making the sky look like a diamond studded mattress. The beauty and the shine of the night irked her as she gritted her teeth.
"Even you are mocking me, huh? The shine of my life is just taken away from me and you are laughing at my misery too by shining so bright, huh?! Why are you so happy today?!" She shouted at the beautiful sky to let out the defeat she was feeling at that moment.
"This marriage is a misery to you, huh?" Someone said from behind, making her jump a little as she looked down but didn't turn around. She never heard that voice before and had a wild guess about whom that voice belonged to.
Her husband…
She instantly hated her last thought.
"That's nothing but misery to me, just like you are a stranger to me. These two things will never change. But these are not the same for the world and my family, so act like a good son-in-law in front of everyone. Tomorrow is the reception party. Don't forget my words." She said with a lot of hatred in her tone before walking toward her car with long steps to drive away from there as soon as she could.
"Won't you even look at me?" He stopped her with something in his tone which she couldn't recognise.
"Are you even worth looking at?" She said in a blank tone before getting inside the car and drove away within a few seconds, leaving her newly wedded husband once again.
If only she knew that it's all going to change.
He just stood there with a blank look on his face as he watched his newly wedded wife drive away from him.
"Where is she?""How is she?""How did this happen?""I want to see her!"Four different voices exclaimed as they all made an entry at the same time. Elijah, who was lost in deep thoughts, came back to the world and looked at them in a little shock.There was Jonah, Mary, Nick and Natasha who one after another said and asked those things. All of their faces were filled with worry and fear.But among them, Natasha's expression surprised him a lot. It looks like she cried on her way here. She was that scared for Sarah! Unbelievable!"Elijah? Back to earth and tell us what happened here?!" Natasha exclaimed once again as she shook him.He looked at her with a small frown looking at the closed hospital door with a clenched jaw."Sarah is in there,
“Where is Sarah?” Elijah asked with a frown as he looked around the room, looking for her frantically. “Who are you looking for, sir?” A doctor asked in confusion after coming forward. “Sarah! Where is she?” Elijah asked in a panicked tone as he just remembered her. He remembered that she didn’t sound good when they were talking on the phone. She must be in some danger. He felt like beating himself up for forgetting about her. “Who is Sarah,sir?” The doctor asked in a fearful tone. “The one who called me to inform me about Eliana! She was here. I heard you guys when we were on a call. Where is she now?” He asked at the top of his voice. The doctor got scared once again. “We didn’t see anyone when we came here, sir. We got busy with Miss Eliana as soon as we entered the room.” The doctor said and he let out a frustrated groan. “Only god
Elijah felt like his whole body was going to turn cold in anticipation and fear. He tried to call Sarah quite a few times. It kept ringing but no one picked it up. He called the guards as well but no one was picking up the call. He gritted his teeth hard in anger. He was going to kill all of them. He reached the hospital and ran inside it, leaving the car unattended, without parking. He ran toward the elevator to find it taking longer to come down as usual but he didn't have much time. So, he ran toward the stairs to take it to reach the floor where his sister was. Hopefully Sarah was there too. "Oh god! Please let both of them be safe. They both mean a lot to me. They are my everything. Please god. I have begged you for a lot of time but he never showed any mercy but please just this one." He prayed loudly and frantically as he ran upstairs. He was breathless by the time he reached the floor. His heart start
Sarah forgot about everything else at that moment and walked toward the hospital room as fast as she could. She came to meet Eliana. She was supposed to stay there with Eliana for a few minutes before going to the office. She had a really important meeting today which she can't postpone or delay anymore because that's going to mess up her schedule. As she neared the room, she suddenly felt a bad energy coming from the room. The feeling was nerve wracking. It made her heart beat badly, for some negative vibe. She felt so scared suddenly and she didn't know why she was feeling so but it made her want to curl in some corner. It was so so bad! She slowly advanced to the room where Eliana was. Her heart was still beating crazily while her leg was wobbling. Her hand was shaking as she put her hand on the handle. She took some deep breaths. She looked back at the guards and they were still looking at their front with no expressions on their fac
THE NEXT MORNING "Good morning, beautiful." Sarah rolled her eyes at his new nickname and cheekiness. "Good morning, Mr King. Can you please tell me where you find such nicknames every new day?" Sarah asked with a sigh while walking through the hospital corridor. "Well, that's for me to know and you to find out." He said with the same level of cheekiness. She shook her head at him. "How are you today?" He asked after a few seconds. "I am good." She answered in a casual tone. "Are you happy?" He asked once again, making her confused. "Why are you asking that?" She asked with a raised eyebrow which obviously he couldn't see. "Well, you got your husband, your love." He stated and she let out a chuckle. "I am not even going to ask
"What is this man doing here? I just lost my appetite!" Samantha exclaimed like a spoiled brat as soon as she saw Elijah sitting on the dining table. Sarah frowned at her while holding Elijah's hand under the table. But she didn't say anything. "What's there to lose appetite, Samantha? Because as far as I remember about your desert preferences a few months ago-..." Natasha couldn't complete her sentence as Samantha's glare shut her up so she just smirked at her in reply. "Don't you think you have started talking too much these days? Are you sure it's good for your health and peace?" Samantha asked Natasha in a mean tone. "Oh don't worry about my health and peace. I belong to the group of those people who ruin other people's health and peace. So, I know how to protect mine well." Natasha replied back sassily while smirking at Samantha while Samantha was fuming in anger.
"Hello, Jordan. I am very happy to see you but I would have been happier if you had knocked before entering the room." Helena said in pure sarcasm, making Jordan wonder from where does this woman get all this humour. But he was too furious to care about that at that moment. "That bastard is playing a double game with us." He growled in fury as he slammed on the sofa where Elijah was seated previously. "Who are you talking about? And why do you sound so furious?" Helena asked, suddenly getting serious. "I am talking about your so-called master pawn! That damn driver, Elijah. He is playing some double game with us and that makes me furious." He said with gritted teeth, making her look at him with a deeper frown. "What are you talking about?" She asked in a blank tone. "I was just outside the door when you were talking with him." He said and before
ON THE OTHER SIDE "May I come in, ma'am?" Elijah knocked on the door. "Come in, Elijah." Helena spoke up with a small and it creeped Elijah so bad that he felt a shiver run past his spine. He kept his face blank as he got inside the room. It wasn't her office room this time, it was her bedroom. It made the situation more awkward for Elijah. He didn't close the door behind him this time. "Good evening, ma'am." He greeted her politely and she nodded at him with the same smile. "Very good evening, Elijah. I am seeing you after so long. How are you?" She asked in a tone as if she was his biggest well-wisher. "Thank you for asking, ma'am. I am good. I hope the same for you." He said in a low tone while looking down on the floor. "I am good as well, as you can see." She said with a smile. "Why don't you take a seat?" She as
"Now, tell me, what's going on?" Sarah asked as soon as they were inside Natasha's room and closed the door behind. They both took a seat on her bed and Sarah patiently waited for Natasha to open her mouth. But she sat there silently, looking down at her hands, without letting out a single word. Sarah looked at her with a worried frown. "Natasha? Is everything alright?" She asked slowly, in a tone filled with nothing but worry."I don't know, Sarah. My life is in a mess currently and I don't know what to do." Natasha said in agony while breaking down completely. Sarah's eyes widened and she was quick to lean forward and hug her tightly."Oh my god, Natasha! Please don't cry. Everything is going to be alright. Please stop crying." Sarah cooed in a caring tone while rubbing her back soothingly to calm her down.Natasha cried hugging Sarah back, without saying anything and Sarah understood that she needed time.
