Chapter 5

Wedding Day…

Finally…

Arthur and I got married…

I never imagined before that I would be the lucky one to have him forever, I even felt insecure about my financial condition, a poor girl like me certainly didn't deserve to be by the side of a rich man like Arthur.

But I was the one who finally stood in front of him, with a beautiful diamond ring on my ring finger, it was me, not another girl. This marriage made me think that I deserved to be with him, after all, I also came from a rich family, it's just that bitch took everything and I became poor.

After the party ended, Arthur and I went to a 5-star hotel, a suite room was waiting for us, it was a gift from his mother, when the door opened I could see how luxurious the room was, the smell was different, like the smell of… money.

"Wow… isn't this too much? There are only us in this room but—"

"Baby, what do you mean too much? We just need to enjoy it without thinking about anything, now you are completely mine, and I think what we have been waiting for all this time we can do now,” Arthur said.

I know very well what he means, honestly, I have also been waiting for it for fucking 5 years with him, he is not easily fooled by my seduction, and maybe I also won’t be able to control him if he takes my bait.

“But… Arthur, actually I also really want tonight to be our perfect first night, but I don’t think we can do it now,”

“What’s wrong?” Arthur said.

“I’m on my period, you don’t want the bed to become a sea of ​​blood, right? Unfortunately, this is my first day, so we have to wait about a week, I’m sorry,”

I know he is disappointed, he is very allowed to be disappointed with me because of this, but I am more disappointed with myself, why did this marriage happen when I was on my period? Annoying isn’t it?

“It’s okay baby, we can enjoy it another time, the most important thing is you’re here with me, we can do it whenever you’re ready,” Arthur said and pulled me closer to him, he stared at me as if hypnotizing me, I was always lulled by that look.

“I love you, Arthur,”

“I know, I love you too Sarah,” He gave me my favorite charming smile before brushing my lips with his. That night even though we were just making out I liked every moment I was together with him, plus the place was so crazy, my bed faced a large window with a view of the city, the city lights looked like stars.

I lay on Arthur’s chest with his arms wrapped around my body, I couldn’t say anything because that place was the best, my father often took me to 5-star hotels for vacation when I was little but not anymore since that bitch ruined everything.

“Do you like it?” Arthur said.

“This is amazing, who doesn’t like this place? They’re just crazy,”

“It’s good if you like it, you should try their food tomorrow, all the dishes here are the best,” Arthur said.

“Should we wait until tomorrow? I think I need something to eat so I can sleep soundly,”

I didn’t hear my husband’s answer, only a small laugh before I lifted my head and looked at him.

“Are you laughing at me?”

“You’re so adorable, of course, we can order something for you, there’s a menu and order whatever you want,” Arthur said.

“What about you?”

“I’m full,” Arthur said and I immediately pouted hearing him say he was full, even though I remembered he hadn’t eaten anything even at the party earlier.

“What’s wrong? It’s okay, you can order whatever you want,” Arthur said.

“But Arthur…”

“Yes baby,” Arthur said and tucked my black hair behind my ear.

“I want to eat a burger from my workplace,”

“At this hour? I think that place is closed, how about we go there tomorrow for lunch,” Arthur said.

“Really?”

“Yes, but you came as a customer, not a worker,” Arthur said.

“Of course, I have already submitted my leave,”

“Leave? I already said if we get married you have to quit your job,” Arthur said.

“Not again Arthur, I also already said I can’t rely on you for all my needs even though you are now my husband but I want to have my income,”

“No, I won’t let that happen, you will get a lot of money in your account, I will give you double your salary there, so stop working,” Arthur said.

“Aish, why do you have to pay me? Am I your paid wife?”

**

I regret asking that, if I knew that question was his real intention to marry me I would have immediately kicked him out of my sight. Does he think loving him wholeheartedly is the same as being stupid?

If I remember that day, I feel sick, I feel like a really stupid girl, or I was just blinded by love at that time, that bastard did have a sweet mouth, and was good at seducing, he could always melt my heart and make everything he did was sincere.

He was just playing a role, and I didn't realize that all this time I was his concubine.

"Woah, are you sure the owner of this house won't be mad if you bring me here?" Jodie said when we arrived at a penthouse owned by Marry.

"No, the owner won't be able to come back here so she gave it to me,"

"Wait... what do you mean?" Jodie said.

"Which one do I mean? The owner won't come back or she gave it to me?"

"Both," Jodie said.

"It's a long story, and you don't need to know about it, the important thing is that we have a decent place to live now,"

"I don't think I can live here, it's too big and I don't know her," Jodie said.

“I said this is mine now, and you know me, so stay here, I can’t live in a big place like this all by myself,”

“Are you crazy? What if my girlfriend finds out I’m living with a red-haired girl with tattoos on her arms? She knows me as a good guy so I don’t want to tarnish my good name,” Jodie said.

“Hey, are you saying being friends with me makes you look like a criminal?”

“No, but… ah never mind, wait, if you need a friend to stay here, maybe Rosie will accompany you,” Jodie said.

“Oh, that innocent girl?”

“Yeah, she’s an orphan, she’s been living alone since the orphanage she lived in kicked her out, she’s been there too long and no one wants to adopt her, luckily I’m now the manager there so I can hire her, you don’t have to worry, she’ll help you out a lot here,” Jodie said.

“Yeah, I can see that on her face,”

“So? If you agree I should contact her now,” Jodie said.

“Yeah, do it, I’m hungry, I’ll make some noodles, do you want some?”

“Noodles? That’s not a bad idea for dinner,” Jodie said and I left him to find the kitchen, it was huge, and I could probably get lost in there.

    Chapter 6A week later…“Come here, I won’t bite you,”I saw the innocent girl did not move when she entered my apartment, she just lowered her head and occasionally adjusted her glasses that had slipped from her tiny nose.“What do you see down there? Am I there? Come on Rosie, I won’t eat you alive, at least I have to kill you first before eating you,”That statement made her lift her head and stare at me with her wide eyes, she couldn’t possibly think I was a cannibal, right?“What? Do you believe I would do that to you? I’m still normal you know, and I’m Sarah, I’m sure Jodie has told you about me, and why are you here, right?”Again the girl just nodded before lowering her head, I don’t know what she saw down there, but it was enough to annoy me.“Rosie, you better not make me mad or I will literally eat you alive, come and sit here, make yourself comfortable,”Rosie came over to me and sat in front of me, she looked awkward, her eyes trying to avoid my gaze, she should be lucky

    Chapter 7My mornings have been very beautiful lately, maybe because I woke up on a soft bed with sunlight shining directly into the room, it feels like I haven't felt this pleasure for a long time, it's very peaceful to be in this place, I don't have to fight over pillows and blankets like when I was in prison, I also don't have to hear their snoring every night.Although it can't be denied that I miss them quite a bit, 10 years is not a short time, my 5 friends and I are getting closer day by day. Especially with that hella rich woman, the woman who gave me all these facilities, I don't know what made her want to help me take revenge on Arthur, maybe because she felt it too.'knock...knock...'"Breakfast is ready," Rosie said.Breakfast?

    Chapter 8On the way to the supermarket I couldn't stop thinking about that bastard, no, I was no longer jealous seeing him with another woman in front of me, but I hated seeing that smile. That smile only appeared in front of me before, but now it appeared after what he had done to my life, he was happy about my suffering and he was the cause."You look upset, is there something wrong with what I said?" Rosie said.It was good that Rosie talked to me, her questions diverted my mind from trash like Arthur Wood."No,""Can I have 10 dollars?" Rosie said and I turned to her with a confused look."10 dollars? For what?""Isn't that a rule you made yourself?" Rosie said.Hell! This girl is really something, I thought she didn't hear what I said about this rule, she seemed focused on the news in front of her earlier, but she heard everything."Oh really? I thought you were deaf, remind me when we get to the supermarket, I know that's why she talks so much," I said and only grumbled at my l

I did look like a pet, but he didn't raise me as a cat, bringing me into prison only made me grow up as a tiger."I'll go first," Rosie's voice interrupted my reverie, I immediately turned to her from outside my room's balcony.But the girl was no longer there, she just said it and disappeared like a ghost, for a week I tried to find out who she was and how to make her do all my orders, but it seems I don't need to do hard work, she just craves attention.I went back inside, washed my empty coffee cup, and put it on the shelf before sitting on the sofa and turning on the TV. I rarely watch TV, I spend more time in front of my phone screen.The TV turned on and a news channel immedia

He came to check on me and Rosie, even though he didn’t need to since I’m not a kid anymore. “I just don’t have any plans in mind, I just want to take revenge and make him pay for everything he’s done to me, as you can see, even though I have all this I still don’t have any power,” “And tell me again, how did you and Arthur meet?” Jodie said. “No, he didn’t even see me, I was in the same toilet as his wife, and I followed her until I saw Arthur there, I felt like…” “Jealous?” Jodie said and I immediately looked at him sternly. “Hell, am I jealous of them? No way! And don’t ever say that word again,” “Then what do you feel when you see them? Besides, it’s normal, you’re still his wife, you never signed the divorce papers, right?

Poor me…All his words were just bullshit, I was just a goat that he was ready to slaughter at any time."Yes, I'm your baby, your girl, your Sarah,""So are you free now?" Arthur said, sounding very cold but I'm sure there was fear in his voice."Yeah, it doesn't feel like 10 years have passed quickly, there are so many things that I missed but it feels like it's not just me, but you too, shouldn't you visit me in prison? You didn't even pick me up when I got out of that hell,""Listen to me Sarah, whatever happened between us ended right after you went in there, so don't ever pull me back into your life because I've found my life which is much better," Arthur said."What do you mean we're over?

I'm not sure I can get close to him even as a friend, because he doesn't seem like someone easy to approach.I checked his Instagram profile, and there wasn't a single photo of a woman there, only photos of himself and some other random pictures, and all of them were black and white. There seemed to be no color in his life and I could see that he hadn't posted a new picture for a long time, his last post was 2 years ago and it was just a picture of two birds in the rain.We followed each other after chatting for quite a while, he turned out to be quite active because he replied to my message quickly, even though the message felt very cold but at least he was willing to respond to me.And of all the things we talked about, there was one thing that surprised me, it was when he asked me to meet, I don't know why he asked me to meet him, is it possib

As they walked in, Rosie's face lit up with a warm smile. She rushed over to Sarah, embracing her tightly. "Oh, Sarah! You're glowing!" Rosie exclaimed, eyeing Sarah's baby bump. "I'm so happy for you!" Jodie, the restaurant's owner, also came over to congratulate Sarah. "You two are going to make amazing parents!" he said, beaming with excitement.

She's been feeling anxious and scared, and she's been having trouble sleeping." Luke's expression turned concerned, and he nodded for Rosie to continue. "She's been trying to hide it from you, Luke, but I can see it. She's terrified of Arthur, and she's terrified of what might happen to her and the baby," Rosie said, her voice barely above a whisper. Luke's jaw clenched in anger, and he looked like he was ready to take on the world. But Rosie placed a hand on his arm, calming him down. "Luke, I need you to promise me something," she said. "I need you to promise me that you won't say anything to Sarah about this. She's not ready to talk about it, and I don't want her to feel like we're ganging up on her."

But being surrounded by Luke and Rosie, watching a silly rom-com, made her feel like everything was going to be okay.As the movie played on, Sarah found herself laughing and smiling along with the characters on screen. She felt like she was finally starting to unwind, to let go of all the tension and anxiety that had been building up inside her.But just as she was starting to relax, Sarah's phone buzzed with an incoming text.

Rosie, who was sitting in the backseat, let out a excited squeal as they parked the car. "I'm so down for some cheesy goodness!" she exclaimed, bouncing up and down in her seat. Sarah laughed and playfully rolled her eyes. "You're such a cheese addict, Rosie." Luke chuckled and put his arm around Sarah. "Well, I think we can all agree that Cheesy Cheese has the best cheeseburgers in town." As they walked into the restaurant, Sarah was hit with a wave of nostalgia. The smell of fried potatoes and sautéed onions wafted through the air, transporting her back to her days working behind the counter. Jodie, the manager of Cheesy Cheese, looked up from the kitchen and did a double take as he saw Sarah walking towards him. "Sarah! Oh my god, it's been ages!" he exclaimed, rushing over to give Sarah a hug. Sarah laughed and hugged Jodie back. "I k

Luke's face fell, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment. He had been so excited at the prospect of becoming a father, and now it seemed like that dream was still out of reach. Rosie, who had just woken up, stumbled out of the bedroom, bleary-eyed and confused. "What's going on?" she asked, taking in the scene before her. But then her eyes landed on the pregnancy test in Sarah's hand, and her face lit up with excitement. "Oh my god, is it...?" she trailed off, her eyes scanning Sarah's face for the answer. But when she saw the look of disappointment on Sarah's face, her own expression fell. "Oh no," she said, her voice filled with sympathy. "I'm so sorry, guys." Sarah forced a smile onto her face.

"Sarah, can I ask you something?" she said. Sarah nodded, intrigued. "Of course, what is it?" Rosie leaned in, her eyes sparkling with interest. "How does it feel to be you today? After everything you've been through, I mean." Sarah thought for a moment before responding. "It's...different," she said finally. "I feel like I've grown so much as a person. I've learned to face my fears and stand up for myself." Rosie nodded, a warm smile on her face. "I can see that," she said. "You're stronger now, Sarah. You're not the same person you were a year ago." Sarah laughed, a hint of self-deprecation in her voice. "I'm still a work in progress, Rosie. I'm still figuring things out." Rosie's

You're just a foolish little girl who thinks she can take on me." Sarah stood her ground, her eyes flashing with defiance. "I'm not afraid of you, Arthur," she said, her voice steady. Arthur's laughter was cold and menacing. "You should be," he sneered. "I'm the one who's been making headlines, who's been making your life a living hell. And you think you can just waltz in here and confront me?" Sarah's eyes narrowed. "You're the one who's been causing all the problems, Arthur," she said. "You're the one who's been manipulating everyone, using your wealth and power to get what you want." Arthur's face turned red with rage. "How dare you," he snarled.
