But Helen, despite knowing the strain she caused, couldn't resist the allure of pleasing Tiger. She reveled in his attention, basking in the power she held over him. Her seductive charm masked the darkness within, the willingness to sow seeds of discord between a husband and wife. As Tiger approached Helen, a mix of excitement and guilt coursed through his veins. He knew that he was playing with fire, risking everything for
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE SIMON'S PLAN
Christiana’s point of view Simon lurked in the shadows, a sinister smile playing upon his lips as he observed the growing rift between Christiana and Tiger. Their crumbling marriage presented an opportunity, a chance for him to manipulate the situation to his advantage. Simon, Christiana's ex, had never truly let go of his obsession with her. As he saw the pain etched on Christiana's face, Simon's dark intentions grew stronger.

MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE PAST ESCAPADES
Christiana’s point of view“Sorry, we are late. Christiana was getting emotional and… you must be understanding.” Her dad said while getting all her luggage down the car. I have to say girls are too much, literally, she had three luggage and a big bag pack of her alone.“Oh, don’t be sorry. We also just arrived a few minutes ago, it is good that his sister has returned, or else even his mother’s situation would have been the same.” Dad said while helping him and meanwhile my mom to her and her mom to me came.“I know with you being there I don’t need to worry about anything, but please she is very stubborn and childish so I hope you both won’t fight.” Her mom said stroking my cheek with her thumb. I smiled and grabbed her hand planting a kiss in her palm while nodding my head as I know, saying a word would only make her emotional. Also, I very well knew what her next words were going to be.She smiled keeping her other hand on our adjoined one, “But that does not mean you would tolera
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE EVENTS
Christiana’s point of view“Thank you.” The staff leaves after serving us our order and we both start eating. “Mmm… I’m feeling so good. I was starving so crazily, thank goodness it was quick.” He said while stuffing his mouth with food.Shaking my head I chuckled, “Who told you to not eat anything before leaving? You should have at least for one last time savored aunt’s handmade dishes.” Thinking of it as the last time for months I had just enjoyed and demanded mom to cook for me all her special dishes. For two days, I have been just savoring all her dishes without even caring about anything.Before I used to whine at her for cooking so delicious but weight-gaining dishes but I did not bother myself to care about it in the last few days, and believe me I am literally so much glad and proud of that. Nothing in this world is more important than enjoying everything our parents or close ones do for us, at least for me this belief goes.“I am glad at least you did, otherwise I can picture
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE WHAT!
Tiger’s point of view“Come on girl, get up now.” Knocking on the door of her room, I called out for her to wake up and walked to my own room to get ready. Today, we have to go to the university and get ourselves signed in and collect our documents, cards, and schedule. No, we are not attending classes today as we will be exploring the university along with the city.Getting ourselves signed in the university is what we need to do today but for that, we need to report dean’s office by nine but this girl seems in no mood for that. She even missed her morning yoga today and everything because her ‘first night together makes for the first movie night out together.’ And, just look at her now being a sleeping beauty.Going inside the washroom, I freshened up and went to the kitchen to see if we have something to cook or if we will have our breakfast here somewhere out. Seeing the door of her room closed, I paused and waited to hear something from inside which would assure me she is awake.
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE A LETTER OF MY MOTHER
Tiger's point of view RETAINING ON TO A PERSON WHO DOES NOT EVEN FEEL THE EQUAL IS A LOT HARDER, BUT WHO DOES NOT EVEN FEEL FOR YOU IS THE HARDEST. A relationship fails because one person was being loved too much and the other was not being loved enough. What about if someone is not at all loved? Well, it is better to be a loser at something you love than to be a success at something you hate. Well, it has been 5 years since all these things happened to me. But I do have remembrances of these escapades. Nonetheless, there are even better things to cherish. Earlier when I used to hear my name, people used to feel pity for me. Now people consider me an example. People take my name proudly. I never wanted a name and fame. But now I do enjoy this. Who would not like when someone takes you as an inspiration? Moving from America and shifting to France was not that easy. Becoming Alexa Hayden back from Alexa John Kelvin was not that easy. But I had decided, that this marriage will not ru
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE MY PLAN!
Helen's point of view Helen stood before the mirror in her elegant bedroom, her eyes fixed upon her own reflection. The weight of her actions bore heavily upon her as she contemplated the chaos she had sown in Christiana and Tiger's marriage. Deep down, she knew the truth—their love for each other was undeniable, even amidst their current strife. A pang of guilt tugged at Helen's heart as she acknowledged the role she had played in fueling the fire between them. She had allowed her own desires and ambitions to cloud her judgment, disregarding the consequences that her actions would have on the lives of those around her. As she gazed into her own eyes, Helen saw the reflection of a woman who had succumbed to her own insecurities and jealousy. She had been envious of the connection shared between Christiana and Tiger, and she had seized upon their vulnerabilities to satisfy her own selfish desires. But now, in this moment of self-reflection, Helen saw the depth of her mistake. She un
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE REALITY OF WHICH I AM UNAWARE
Tiger's point of view Tiger sat alone in his childhood home, surrounded by the lingering presence of memories that both comforted and haunted him. The room was filled with a melancholic silence, as if the walls themselves mourned the loss of his beloved mother, Alexa. Gazing out of the window, his eyes fixated on the silver moonlight dancing upon the quiet streets, Tiger found himself lost in a labyrinth of thoughts about his parents' shattered bond. His father, a man whose name evoked bitterness within him, had always been unjust to Alexa. Tiger could recall the countless nights he spent awake, listening to his mother's silent tears echoing through the walls. The sound had etched its way into his heart, leaving an indelible mark that shaped his perspective on love.
