“Am I just a pawn in your hands?” Ivana whispered. “What did you say?” He asked, not hearing what she said well. “Nothing” she replied, sighting deeply. The night air was thick as Ivana and Adrian left the engagement party. The murmurs of the guests fading behind her, but their mocking words still rang in Ivana’s mind. She clenched her fists as she followed Asher into the black SUV waiting for them at the entrance. Asher's movement looks calm and composed like nothing had really happened. The only sounds were the soft sound of the engine and the serious look of the man beside her who was staring at his phone. Ivana stared at his sharp jawline, his sexy eyes staring straight ahead, his hand resting on the gear. She turned her face away, staring outside the car, wondering if she she say something.

The medical team planned to treat his injured arm near the medical center around the event. “Of course I'm coming with you.” Ivana said, pulling back from the thought of what just happened.

She stared at the ceiling in frustration. Today is the day of the engagement to a man she had never met. She heard a loud knock on her door. “Who is that again?”. She checked the time on her phone seeing it's still early. The door swung open, revealing two maids, followed by an entire team of stylists following them with their equipment. They carried bags of beauty tools, and accessories. "Ivana, my darling daughter," her stepmother, Clarissa, cooed as she stepped in, her fake smile as sharp as a blade. "You have to get ready, today is your special day. The Jacksons have spared no expense for their sweet bride." Ivana clenched her jaw. She wanted to scream, but she knew better not to do that.
