“You're not invited,” Robert said, glaring at her, his teeth clinging together as he spoke.
“I'm part of the family, Robert, and as my humble and kindhearted brother isn't well enough to attend, it's just so right I represent myself as a family member, right?” Victoria said as her gaze slowly moved in my direction. ""Nice choice,"" she said as she moved her arms to touch my face, but Robert held her arm halfway and pushed it off. “Stop it. " Not another word from you, Victoria.” Robert said with unease, reading through his expression. “Oh! My bad. " I could be a loudmouth sometimes.” She said sarcastically as she moved slowly towards his ears. “Well, your little secret is safe with me as long as you give me what I want at the board meeting; then I won't chase away your little princess.” She tapped his shoulder and walked away majestically, leaving Robert with a disturbed expression. “What is she talking about?” I asked as I pulled my arms out of his grip. He looked at me rather startled and then walked towards the car. I was confused, the relationship between Robert and Victoria seemed to be more tense. I wanted to ask Emily more questions, but I couldn't, as my ride home with Robert was waiting for me. After a few minutes of driving home in silence as I watched Robert constantly glued to his phone, we finally arrived at the JR mansion. It was magnificent. As I was about to get down from the car, Robert held my hands. “I'm sorry about Victoria; she's not too welcoming sometimes, and I…” “Why did you force me into this marriage with you?” I asked, cutting him off. He let go of my hands and turned to leave when I held him by his blazer. “I will never treat you as a wife should,” I said with disgust. He took off my hands and glanced at me with the warmest look ever, “Get some rest,” were his last words as he stepped out of the car and walked into the mansion, leaving me behind. I wanted us to have an argument, to fight. We should have a reason to dispise each other, but instead he's been the opposite. I scoffed and walked out of the car. As I stepped into the mansion, I was greeted by an elderly woman and two maids. “My name is Mrs. Cara, and I am the head housekeeper of the JR mansion. " I will be helping you settle in.” The elderly woman who looked like she was in her fifties said to me with her head slightly bowed. The two maids that stood behind her collected my luggage from the chauffeur and moved upstairs. We went upstairs into an apartment. It seems like a different section set apart. It has its own dining room, seating room, and bedrooms. “This is Sir Robert’s apartment. There are four different apartments in the mansion and four guest rooms. Every Friday, the family comes together for dinner in the general dining room downstairs on the last floor. To your left is Sir Robert's room, and yours is on the right….” I gazed around as she made her detailed description. Her words faded in my ears as I dived into my own thoughts. “It looked beautiful, yet felt lonely. The walls had beautiful paintings designed by legends. Robert seems to be someone who loves details.” “Do you need any further advice on how to go about the mansion?” said Mrs Cara, bringing me back to reality. “No, I think I will be okay,” I said, turning my gaze to her. “Remember, the basement is off-limits.” She said with a smile, but I gazed back at her with a confused expression. I stepped into my room, changed, took a shower, and collapsed on the bed. It felt soft and relaxing, it was so big, as I spread my arms on the huge bed, I heard footsteps, it drew nearer to my door and stopped. I felt my door knob twist and fear grip me. “Hope we are not having that aspect in marriage, where the bride has to give herself to the groom on her wedding night,” I imagined Robert walking into my room, and stripping off my dress, impatiently, devouring every bit of me, kissing my lips passionately… “No! No, I can't imagine that. I will make sure I chase him out.” I quickly laid quietly on my bed and closed my eyes. I heard the door open slightly and then shot closed after some minutes. I wondered why he tried coming into my room. Was he expecting more from me?

~Robert POV~I couldn't believe I finally got her. It was an easy catch indeed, and I wondered how much she had endured at the hands of her father. I sat in the study, and her image kept on coming into my head. The way she smiled while at the altar, she looked so stunning. A knock interrupted my thoughts, and I knew the reports of the research were ready.“Sir, here's the document you asked for,” Dennis, my private investigator, said to me as he dropped the file on the table.“Have you gotten the person responsible for the accident?”“Not yet, sir, but evidence is pointing to the black wolves. It seems a member of the club has a grudge towards you.”“Then find out who the hell it is, or else all the members of the Black Wolf will pay; no one dares mess with the Venoms.”“Yes sir,” Dennis walked out of the office swiftly to follow up with my commands.I tore open the file, and my suspicions were confirmed. The DNA test between Johnson and Mia was negative. H

~Mia POV~I woke up to a sunny morning the next day. The rays of the sunset shined softly on my face. I turned reluctantly, not wanting to get out of bed.As I stepped out into the dining room, I saw Robert carefully setting the dishes. He smiled warmly at me as I walked towards the dining. The table had different kinds of dishes on it. The aroma from the dish greeted my nose, making my stomach grumble. “You made this?” “Well, I do try sometimes to do some dishes.” He said and smiled.“Humm,” I nodded as I took my seat. We sat opposite each other, and I could sense his gaze was fixed on me.The elegant table had a freshly squeezed grape juice, poached eggs with smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce on toasted English muffins with a bottle of Bellini.“Eat!” Robert said to me as I sat still admiring the dishes.We began eating, and the clattering of the cutlery filled the air. “I saw you first on a rainy day in the countryside in California.” I chewed slowly as he spoke.

~ Mia POV~ I rushed downstairs when I realised time was far gone and I might miss the board meeting. I was to be at work today by 9 am, and it's already 8:30. “Good morning, ma’am, your breakfast…” “I'm so sorry, but I won't be having breakfast,” I calmly said to the butler with a tone of anxiety. “Get me the car, fast!” I said, raising my voice slightly higher than normal at the chauffeur as I glanced at my wristwatch. “Yes, ma’am,” he said as he stepped out to get the car ready. “Where's Emily?” I asked, looking around. But no one seems to have an answer to that. I took my bag and dashed into the car. As I stepped into the office building, I was greeted by Emily. “Why weren't you at the mansion?” I asked as we both walked in. “That's because I needed to set up your office, ma’am, but you're running late at present for a board meeting holding prior to your new position.” I stopped abruptly as she mentioned the board meeting, reminding me of Robert's words during dinne

~Robert POV~ Victoria sat on the cushion with her legs crossed as she gently sipped a mug of creamy tea. “What do you want this time?” I asked as I stood backing Victoria with my arms crossed behind me as I glanced at my newly purchased painting. “You know, I've always loved your paintings and how top-notch your choices have been. But I'm scared as the man behind these paintings is becoming weak.” I turned to face Victoria with a grin on her face, knowing she had finally gotten the kind of attention she seeks. “I'm not weak.” I said in a defiant manner “I'm afraid you're becoming one Robert Lud.” She placed the mug of creamy tea on the table and walked towards my position. “It's been three days since you discovered Mia is not the daughter of Mr. Johnson, yet you kept quiet and hid the truth away from her.” “I need more time, Victoria.” “Oh really?

Maybe this is the last straw of your tolerance towards me because of everything I have done.

~Mia~I stood before the ornate mirror in the Celeste gown by Oscar de la Renta. The strapless mermaid-styled dress hugged my curves, displaying my toned physique. The soft ivory silk cascaded down my body. Embroidered with special floral and beading that glittered like moonlight, as I looked at my reflection, I was dazed by my outlook. The woman staring back is now a version of elegance, wealth, and poise.“Is this what my father wanted? " To sell me for wealth?” I questioned with a perplexed expression. I wonder how much he has now in his bank account, how much he has to lavish on his alcoholic lifestyle. I wish I had the heart to leave him like Mom did. " Why must I pay for his debt?""I felt my anger boiling up. But my thoughts were interrupted as Emily walked in. She was dazed with astonishment at seeing me.“Ma’am, you need to step out now; it's time.” She said as she moved close to help me make my way to the altar.“It's fine; I can walk on my own,” I said, objecting to her att
