Married By Chance: Bullied By My Knight Chapter 45: A Little Air
Adrian and Olivia continued their passionate time together in Adrian's room, leaving Ria to battle with her thoughts. The pain weighed heavily on her chest, and she held back tears.Olivia never ceased to use that one time she saved her life against her. That could have been the reason she did it, because she knew that one day it would come in handy for her deceptive tricks."But... Why?" Ria muttered. "I've been a good sister to her all my life. She was my best friend, and I was willing to give up whatever I had for her.”No.I practically gave up everything I had for her. Ever since she came along with her mother, I became completely irrelevant and invisible to my family. My father never wanted to see me, Everyone's major concern was Olivia." "Everyone cared about Olivia. She was the name in their lips, and even when I'll get hurt, they wouldn't care until it was serious, but even then, Olivia had to be the one to tell them to treat me. We were the perfect dynamic duo... But now,

Adrian stepped closer, his face filled with anger. “Ria, I—”Before he could finish, Ria’s phone rang, cutting through the tension. She glanced at the screen and saw a familiar name, but before she could answer, Adrian snatched her phone and smashed it against the hard tiles."You don't have the privilege to answer calls when I'm talking to you." He sneered. "Now listen to me closely Ria. I'm the head of this house, and only my decision stands, if I wanted you to sleep in the rain, you do it without asking any questions."Ria raised an eyebrow, clearly shocked by Adrian's new outburst. What had Olivia told him? What did she do that made Adrian this furious towards her? Yes he hated her, but this was becoming more cruel than his usual state, more unimaginably wicked."Oh and... One more thing." Adrian continued. "Don't ever think of yourself as my wife else that would be the last thing you'll think about. You are nothing before me... Or maybe you are something— a disposable piece of wa

A few days had passed since Ria became a maid in her matrimonial home, and everyone would have expected her to get used to the chores like Adrian said, but no, she was becoming more tired of them each day, and Adrian wasn't doing anything to help. He didn't care about her, and even when she pleaded with him to give her a little massage on her feet to help ease her pain, he would laugh."There's no way I'm going to touch that disgusting body of yours." He would say.Ria could feel her world crumble before her, but thankfully, things weren't going that bad. She hadn't seen Olivia in days and that alone was enough reason to give thanks. Olivia would have been a real thorn in her flesh when she figured out that she was now a maid.Well... Speak of the devil.As Ria began her forced morning routine, she heard a knock on the door, but this time, it wasn't just the regular Olivia; she was accompanied by her mother, Ria's stepmother.The hurtful fact that she was the one who opened the door f

Ria worked at her fastest, tripping several times while going at it. She was careful enough not to fall or sustain any injuries, but she was in a hell of a pain. Coupled with the fatigue that drenched her."Oh, Ria... I do hope you can forgive me.” Every muscle in Ria's body tensed as Olivia's voice suddenly turned soft. “It was a mistake, I really didn't mean to spill my meal all over the place. It's just that I enjoy walking while eating, so I ended up spilling food all over the place.” Olivia pouted moving closer to Ria. Ria swallowed hard. Her grip on the cleaning brush tightened.“I didn't consider it would be difficult cleaning this big place but looking at your fatigued self, I really feel bad for my actions," Olivia muttered, faking a sincere face.Ria rolled her eyes seething in anger. She knew it was all fake, but she couldn't do anything; any word she said would only be used against her.Olivia had her way of making her look like a bad person. "It's fine, Olivia; just

"So... You told Olivia I treated you like a slave?"Ria was speechless. She didn't understand what was going on. Olivia had over-exaggerated the truth, and Adrian had read a different meaning into it."N—No..." Ria stammered. "That's not it.""Yes babe, please don't misunderstand Ria... I was only trying to help out." Olivia said.Ria nodded her head. "Yes, she–"Shut up..." Adrian shouted, cutting out her remaining words. "I don't care if you're dying. You shouldn't have asked Olivia to help you. Have you forgotten your position in this house? What gave you the right?” Ria shivered at the chill in his voice.“Once my father comes back in two weeks I'll have a discussion concerning getting rid of you."Ria swallowed hard as her hands clenched into tight fists."Come on Adrian... It hasn't gotten to that. I was only helping; it's my fault, not Ria's; she's pregnant, and all these chores are too much for a pregnant woman." Olivia said.Adrian turned to glance at Olivia."Helping? I'm

Ria froze, her heart pounding in her chest. She turned slowly to face him, her finger still bleeding. The pain was almost unbearable. Adrian’s gaze was cold and hard, as if he hadn’t just heard her cry out moments before.“I said, where do you think you're going?” Adrian repeated, his voice void of any sympathy.“I... I just need to clean this up,” Ria stammered, trying to keep her composure. Her eyes moved to her finger, which was still dripping blood, but she could feel his icy stare pinning her down.Adrian didn’t move, his posture was relaxed and his eyes sharp. “And who asked you to leave the dishes?”Ria lifted her head in surprise, meeting his gaze.“Adrian, I'm injured, you don't expect me to—”“Shut up! What do you know about my expectations?” Ria stiffened at his voice.“Don't let me repeat myself, Ria, get back into the kitchen and continue the dishes.”Ria stood, momentarily speechless, mouth agape as tears rolled down her chin.Adrian's gaze remained on her—daring her t

Adrian froze as his eyes remained glued to the message on his screen. Across the kitchen, Ria, who had been trying to mind her business and focus on the dishes, couldn't help but worry.“Adrian, is everything okay?”Adrian's gaze snapped toward her. The moment their eyes met, Ria felt her heart sink. She could see the anger burning in his eyes.Ria swallowed hard, her hands trembling. She could have just shut her mouth and mind her business. Why was she worrying over someone who doesn't give a dime about her?Whatever anger he felt after receiving that message was about to be transferred to her.Adrian stared at her, his jaw clenched, as if looking for the right words to say. His gaze moved from her face to her fingers then back to her face.His hands tightened into fists as he took a step closer to Ria.Ria unconsciously backed away from the sink. She didn't know what had made him angry but she could tell it had something to do with her.“Ad–Adrian,” Ria stammered, her voice trembli

Adrian sat at the head of the long table in the meeting room, his eyes were fixed on the screen in front of him, but his mind was far away. The boardroom was very quiet except for the distant voice of the man standing with a pointer, sweating profusely, as he explains slides that Adrian wasn't even seeing. Everything was like a background noise to Adrian, he stared but he wasn't listening.His thoughts were back in the kitchen that morning. The incident that occurred and the way Ria had looked at him with wide eyes filled with shock and confusion.Was it all fake? Or had he gone too far?Did she really not know his father was returning? His sister?Was she genuinely surprised, or was it just another act to gain pity?Did she hurt herself on purpose, just to make him look bad when his father arrived?He clenched his jaw, staring blankly at the spreadsheet on the screen. Ria had looked hurt. And for a split second, when she had winced in pain, he’d felt something sharp twist inside him

Adrian, where's my room? You know I need the best room with the best view. Betty spoke up happily as she finished eating her breakfast, her voice laced with excitement."Ria will take you to your room," Adrian replied, still focused on his meal without looking up.Betty's happy mood died down immediately. Her face twisted in displeasure."I don't need her help finding my way in my brother's house. She should focus on clearing the dishes.""She's your brother's wife and not a slave Betty," Charles' voice rang out, firm and disapproving.Betty's eyes flared in defiance. "I already said I won't accept her but since she desperately wants to be here, then she needs to make herself useful."Without waiting for another word, she turned to Adrian with narrowed eyes. "What about Olivia?"Adrian raised his head and looked at Olivia, then back at Betty. "What about her?""She will be staying in your room right?"Ria choked on the food she was eating. Coughing uncontrollably till tears welled in

The ride to Adrian's house was loud as well as annoying to Charles as every word that came out of Olivia's mouth made Charles angrier than the last.They soon arrived at Adrian's house and Charles asked Adrian to wait behind in the car, he had something to discuss with him. He told Olivia and Betty to go ahead and they would join them soon.Betty who was still filled with joy, linked her arms with Olivia's and practically dragged her out of the car. Olivia barely had the chance to glance at Adrian before the door was shut. She felt uneasy and wondered what Charles wanted to tell Adrian. She hoped he wasn't about to change Adrian's mind before she even got the chance to carry out her plans.Betty tugged her forward, drawing her out of her thoughts. Olivia plastered a smile on her face. Whatever card Charles had to play, at least she still had Betty on her side. Now she needs to make sure Betty keeps seeing her as her lifesaver and keeps feeling she's indebted to her.Olivia momentarily

Ria, who had only meant to rest for a short while, was jolted awake by the sudden buzz from her phone. She hadn’t planned to sleep for long, but somehow, the tiredness had taken over her body.Still half-asleep, she yawned and stretched, then slowly reached out to grab her phone from the bedside. Taking a peek at her phone she was shocked to discover that her sweet little nap had turned into a long one as it was already past seven in the morning."Oh dear Lord" she sighed as she clicked open the notification that had appeared on her screen.Her eyes widened a little when she saw the message on the screen. It was from Adrian.“I’m on my way home with some familiar guests. Prepare breakfast and a nice bowl of healthy soup… Do not disappoint me,”Ria blinked, staring long at the message. A bowl of healthy soup? Is Adrian sick? Or is he coming home with a sick person?A sudden wave of panic rushed through her as she realized Adrian hadn’t returned home last night, and she hadn’t even not

“What did you just say?” Charles asked in shock, staring at Gerald like he hadn’t heard him right.Gerald held the phone carefully in his hand. “The person on the call… she’s the one who helped your daughter when she collapsed,” he repeated.Charles blinked, trying to wrap his head around what he had just heard.. His eyes shifted from Gerald to the glass door of the hospital room where Betty was lying on the bed, smiling and chatting with Olivia.He raised a brow. “Are you sure about what you're saying?” he asked, still not wanting to get his hopes high.“Yes, sir. She was there with her until the ambulance arrived. She told me she wanted to follow up, but she had some things to take care of. She just called now,” Gerald explained.Charles didn’t say another word. He stretched out his hand for the phone. “Give me the phone.”Gerald quickly took the call off hold and brought it to his ear. “Hello, ma’am. I’m handing you over to her father now,” he said and passed the phone to Charles.

Betty's eyes widened as she stared at both Adrian and Olivia curled up in each other's arms."If she's… your Cinderella—then, who's… your wife?” Betty dragged the question as she was still confused.“Ahem, ahem,” Charles cleared his throat awkwardly, trying to redirect her attention “Betty, you need to rest.”“No Dad, I'm perfectly fine.” She said, shaking her head. “I need to understand what's going on.”She turned to Adrian, her eyes searching his face. “Brother why aren't you saying anything? Why are you not married to your Cinderella?”“Betty—”“No,” Betty said, cutting him off sharply. “If you're going to tell me to rest just like Father, then just don't.”Adrian sighed deeply.“Betty, please listen to your father and brother, they mean well.” Olivia said gently. “And they are right, you just recovered, there's still time for you to know everything that transpired.”Betty wanted to insist that she was fine but she bit her lips instead, holding back the words. She could be stubbor

Ria looked at the table again. Everything was ready. The food was set neatly. She had cooked Adrian’s favorite dishes. The smell still filled the room, but the warmth was slowly fading. She had even used the special plates Adrian bought, saying they are his sister's favorite. Ria wanted tonight to turn out well.She had cooked different dishes—rice, soup, meat, vegetables. Everything looked perfect. She rubbed her sore fingers, still bandaged, but she didn’t mind.She glanced at the clock. It was almost 8 p.m.Her heart began to beat faster. She walked to the window and looked outside, hoping to see Adrian’s car, but the street was quiet. There was no sign of anyone coming.Her mind drifted back to the moment Adrian left. That sudden call he picked before storming out of the house. He didn’t say where he was going. He didn’t even say when he’d be back. She had thought maybe he went to get something, maybe it was urgent. But now, she doesn't know anymore.She looked at the clock again.

Adrian hurriedly arrived at the hospital and walked straight into Betty's ward. When he got inside, he noticed his father, Charles, was already there and chatting with Betty. Betty didn't look pale or in danger as he had thought; rather, she seemed very happy about something.Adrian heaved a deep sigh of relief, and at that moment, Betty raised her head, and on seeing her brother, her face lit up in delight.“Brother!” she called out joyfully, stretching her arms wide.A doting smile appeared on Adrian's face as he walked closer to her.“Brother,” Betty said again, embracing him in a tight hug that showed how much she missed him.Charles sighed, shaking his head lightly. “I told her not to go, but knowing how stubborn your sister is, she didn't listen. Now here she is.”Betty pouted, pulling away from Adrian but keeping his hand in hers. “I only wanted to get a few things for my sister-in-law, Is it a crime?”“See?” Charles said to Adrian, gesturing with his hands.Adrian's jaw clench

Ria got home and stopped at the front door in surprise.There were shopping bags everywhere—big, colorful, and full of luxury items. Some had ribbons, others had tags showing how expensive they are. The prices alone made her heart race.She looked around, but the street was quiet. No one was in sight.“Who brought all these?” she whispered to herself.She picked up one of the bags and peeked inside. A designer dress. Another bag had shoes. Then a box with perfume. There were more bags than she could count.Her first thought was Mr. Blake. He was the only one she could imagine doing something like this. Maybe it was his way of announcing his arrival to her.“But this much?” she murmured, her eyes wide. “Did he buy the whole mall?”She was still standing there, trying to understand it all, when she heard the familiar sound of Adrian’s car pulling into the driveway.Her chest tightened immediately.She turned to see him getting out of the car, walking toward her with long, firm steps.

Charles Blake and his daughter, Betty, arrived in town around 3 PM. The sun was still high, and there were a few hours left before dinner. Their flight had been smooth. And though Charles, now seated in his car, looked calm on the outside, he was filled with excitement. It had been one week since he last saw his daughter in-law, and today, he would be seeing her again. He was supposed to stay for two weeks but Betty was too excited to come see her brother's wife, hence their earlier arrival.Betty, sitting beside him, was even more excited. Her brother had always spoken fondly of his childhood sweetheart when they were abroad. “My Cinderella this, My Cinderella that,” she remembered him saying, often with a soft smile. Betty was only a child then, but even at that age, she could tell this Cinderella was someone special to her brother.Adrian was lucky. But Charles also knew his son was stubborn. He hoped he hadn’t already ruined things with Ria while he was away.“I want to stop by t
