I quickly got dressed and called Martha, my house help."Madam, you called for me?" Martha asked, inquiring if I needed anything."Yes, please inform Alex, the driver, to get ready.

ANNA'S POV As I slowly opened my eyes, I basked in the warmth of the sun and the softness of the luxurious bed. I stretched my limbs, savoring the comfort of the plush room I was in, complete with a king-size bed and a cozy cushion.Gazing out the window, I was greeted by the vibrant sunshine and the melodic chirping of birds. Just as I was about to rise, I heard footsteps approaching. My brow furrowed in curiosity, wondering who it could be.Before I could even sit up, the door burst open, and Kevin stormed in, his face contorted with fury. I clutched my chest, shocked by the sudden intrusion.I jumped out of bed, disoriented, and asked, "What's wrong?"But instead of answering, Kevin exploded in anger, yelling at the top of his lungs, "You have the nerve to ask me what's wrong?"I was taken aback by his sudden outburst. Why was he so furious? What had I done wrong? My mind was racing with questions.I felt a surge of indignation. I was the one who should be angry, not him. He had l

I had no idea what I was looking for, but something didn't feel right.To escape being caught, I quickly returned to my room. As I went past the mystery locked room between Kevin's and mine, my interest peaked. I went past this room every day, but it suddenly appeared fascinating. I could not explain why.‘Could this be what I am looking for’ I whispered, turning the knob of the door. Unfortunately it was open as I turned on the light, in the room which seemed like a study room, on the table was an electric lamp and piles of documents which drew my attention.My eyes fell on a paper, it looked very well like a will and written clearly where the requirements and of the beneficiary, which was Kevin I presume, I read further I was left perplexed at the sight of the will you are only entitled to my will when you get married and can be able to get an heir within a year of your marriage.

Do you want to eat cold food?” Kevin asked, totally unaware of my newest discovery and how I was filled with hate towards him.“I was getting ready,” I replied, trying to hold in my anger.The room was quiet, the only sound was from the clash of the spoon and the plate.“Can I ask you something, Kevin?” I broke the silence.“What could that be, you can see we are eating” Kevin said, “Can't it wait till later?” I took a deep breath, my heart racing with anticipation. “Of course not,” I replied.
