Tricked. Rejected, and Betrayed. Thinking she has had enough share of this world’s cruelties, Blair's only desire is to end up with the man she has loved her entire life. To her, their marriage is much more than just a contract. When she finds out she's pregnant, her hope increases that he'll reciprocate her love. However, even the contract marriage is just another trick designed by her sister, and Raymond played his part perfectly. Unable to bear his rejection, her only option is to run. But will she let her sister's betrayal destroy her? Will she let the heartbreak stop her from seeking revenge?
Lihat lebih banyakBlair's POVWith the last strength left in me, I slouch on the sofa, sighing in relief. Raymond did this and I swear, I won't let this slide. How dare he leave me at the hospital just to go see another lady?I'm in pain and I'll make sure I make him feel that too. But can I even do it? I love him so much, I can't hurt him. Hurting him or making him mad is the same as hurting my heart too. My hand travels down my tummy and I can't help but smile as I rub it circularly. When should I inform Raymond about our baby?I badly want to do this, maybe it will bring an end to all this. However, I'm skeptical about telling him. He might not believe me, he can reject it too just the way he rejected my confession. Should I tell grandpa instead? The old man will be happy about it, and he'll protect me too. “Blair?”I turn slowly and see him coming down the stairs supporting himself with his walking stick. I manage to stand on my feet to help him down the stairs, but then I remember wha
Ever since I left Cassie's place, my mind hadn't been at rest. Cassie must be feeling sad right now.She'll think I've stopped having feelings for her, but that's not true. I still love her and I don't know why I acted that way earlier on.She really needed me; however, I turned her down and left. Well, I didn't turn her down directly, my grandpa's call saved me. When he called, I used that as an excuse to leave Cassie's presence because it seems like I was trying to do a bad thing. This is weird. She's the only woman I want in my life yet, I am afraid to do what she wants. Maybe it's because she's dealing with the pains in her legs. “Is this what I ordered you to do?”I glance at Blair who is standing behind Grandpa biting her nails nervously.She must have told Grandpa that I took her to the law firm for a divorce. Nothing will make the old man act that way if not for that. “How dare you leave your wife stranded after I instructed you to go bring her home?”I frowned at Bl
Raymond's PovIf not for grandpa, I wouldn't have gone to that hospital to see her. I wouldn't have even taken her to the hospital a few hours ago. Why can't something bad just happen to her so she will leave?I am so fed up seeing Blair all the time and having to deal with her attitude. She's so evil and manipulative, trying to get her way with me. “If you don't bring Blair back home tonight, I will be upset with you.” Those are grandpa's words when he came into my room an hour ago. I don't love Blair, it is Cassie I love,But Blair is standing in the way. I have to bring an end to this before it gets out of hand. “Where are you taking me?” Blair's shaky voice interrupts my thoughts. I am driving at high speed and it scares her a lot. Maybe she's thinking I'll get us into an accident to teach her a lesson.But I'm not that daft to hurt myself. If I have to do that, then she'll be the only one in the car. “One word from you, and I will throw you out of this car!” I threat
“Hello, sis.”My fingers clenched into a fist as soon as Cassie appeared. What the heck is she doing here?She is the last person I want to see. Cassie always gives me the urge to grab her neck and twist it until she stops breathing whenever we cross paths. And what on earth is she still doing in this wheelchair?She looks fine to me, Cassie must be up to something.After all, she has never done anything good in her life. “Going to see your Dad?” She let out a horrible laugh, the one that shows she's definitely up to no good. But do I even care? I really don't. I can't let Cassie ruin my mood now, I have a lot of things to discuss with my dad. Ignoring her is the best thing to do, but Cassie grabbed my hand as soon as I walked past her wheelchair. “Don't you want to listen to what I have to say?” Letting out a deep sigh, I turned to her. However, that mischievous look on her face shows that she did something there. “Your dad won't listen to whatever you have to say, Blair,
But what about our baby? Will I be doing myself good by leaving at this moment? Cassie will celebrate, and she’ll think she has won. Raymond, on the other hand, will be over the moon thinking he has gotten rid of the thorn in his path, me. “Would you?”Jeff’s question broke me out of my reverie. He looked as though he was expecting me to say yes to his question. Even though I want to, there’s no way I could let Cassie and Raymond win this battle. I chose this path, knowing fully that I might win it in the end. I can’t just allow my evil, manipulative sister to get whatever she wants anymore. She has already taken everything away from me, she has made my life a living hell. Worse, she took away the last person I looked forward to interacting with again, my own father. How then should I let Cassie win? She’ll definitely pay for all she did and is still doing to me. “Jeff?” I called, sighing inside. Jeff won’t be happy with what I am about to say, but I have no other choice.
Blair’s POVMy stomach hurt like hell!Where am I?Fluttering my eyelids open, they were met with the blinding lights coming from above. Great!Just great!I have died without getting to carry out my revenge plan.Raymond and Cassie won. It would be a miracle if I had survived that intense hunger. Grandpa George was going to leave me to rot there. I should have seen it coming.Maybe the family had wanted to get rid of me right from the start, and Raymond's grandfather's affection had been faked. Thank goodness I'm going to heaven and not hell. I've faced enough suffering already.Losing my mother before I could barely talk, getting bullied all my life by my sister, and my father choosing Cassie over me. Don't get me started on that scumbag Raymond whom I've dedicated my heart to-“Blair…” A gentle voice called out to me.So gentle and familiar. Am I supposed to be hearing voices?“Blair, are you alright? The Doctor said you're safe now… Do you still feel pain?”“Huh?” Blinking, I
…Raymond's POVI should have seen this coming.Who would have thought that Blair would be so tricky?I thought she was all talk! It turns out she's wicked beyond my imagination.I was on my way to the room to change my clothes when that servant walked into me and told me Blair asked her to deliver the almond juice.If I hadn't been thirsty- and if almond juice hadn't been my favorite, I wouldn't have taken it.Poisoning me has definitely helped her achieve her aim. I am forced to cancel the business trip.Now I can't get away from her drama, or Cassie's.Cassie insists we get married right away after processing the divorce with Blair, but things don't work like that. No matter what, her sister was my wife before, even though our marriage was based on a contract.What will Grandpa say especially now that he's about to announce my relationship with Blair?What will the public think?I should have thought about all these before agreeing to the contract marriage. I should have at leas
What!?I blinked at the old man.I parted my lips, but shock allowed no words to form.What am I hearing?“A wise bum would wait until she gives birth to two or more heirs before eliminating the husband.”“But you can't wait to get rid of Raymond, Blair. Didn't you think about the punishment for your crime before trying this?”“If Raymond has died, do you think that you would be given a penny from his wealth in this condition when you're barren?”Lana, Matilda, and Betty.They couldn't keep their mouths shut.Ever since I entered, those words had been registered on their faces and they couldn't wait to spill them out.Overwhelmed by the shock and disbelief, I glanced from the family to Grandpa George, wishing my ears were tricking me.“I thought you were unlike the other girls.” Grandpa George sighed. “I always believed that you loved my grandson.”I gulped!Damnit!Why are they accusing me out of nowhere?Did the old man even do a proper investigation?Who was that damned servant tha
I paused, watching as he gradually regained his senses.Hearing the first word coming from him, my heart throbbed with a sudden sadness that made me clench my fists. How ironic was it that Cassie's was the first name he remembered the moment he woke up. “Dad, it's me… Blair,” I answered, rubbing his hand gently while trying to keep my voice calm. Yet, my father's response struck me hard once more.“Blair? Where's Cassie? Is your sister here?”I shook my head. Why does he ask about Cassie so desperately? I'm here, yet, he doesn't look a bit delighted. I would believe he's still trying to cope with the reality that's why, but realizing that Cassie isn't here, he looked very sad. “Go and get her, Blair. I want to see her.”I pursed my lips, suppressing the sudden sadness inside me. “Why, Dad? Aren't you happy to see me?”But my father frowned. He tried to sit up but failed. Giving me an almost-irritated look the way he usually did whenever I threw my tantrums, he sighed. “Stop ac
~BLAIR~Is this a blessing or a curse? My fingers trembled with the pregnancy test strip as I stared at the two red lines through my vision blurred with tears. What have I done?How could I let this happen? My marriage with Raymond is only based on a contract. How is he gonna react to this? I wiped my tears, holding in a deep breath to control my heartbeat. My memory flashed to that night a few weeks ago, of Raymond suddenly barging into my room, drunk and haggard.I doubt if he even remembers. He never spoke about it.I don't even know how he feels about it!Running all fingers through my hair, I sniffed back my tears as all negative emotions flooded my mind.What will Raymond's reaction be like? Will he be angry?Will he accept it?But, what if he actually likes this baby? What if he'll be willing to accept it? Standing up, I touched my tummy, a mix of anxiousness and fear compounding my chest. Well, Raymond should know about it.Maybe… Just maybe, he'll accept our baby. And...
