Even Troy's family and friends who were till the end, congratulated and apologized to Carol for Troy's behavior. Especially, Troy's mother who raised troy like an ideal man. She had faith in her son who would never turn into a monster like his father.
Right now, The Reception is happening, like they have planned. Troy and his mistress are still sitting on the sand, tied up. His friends to his mother and his younger sister are attending as Carol's family and friends. ** Carol** Troy's mother smiles and brings a jewelry box, revealing a beautiful necklace with a pendant in it. ** This is my family's heirloom. Your grandma wanted you to have it once you are married to my son. However, today I found that I don't have any children. I always thought of you as my daughter. I always wanted to protect you from your own family. So I think you deserve it!** She signs and puts the box in her hand, ** I apologize for the pain you went through. Please accept it, thinking your mother gifted you as a wedding gift** Carol tries to resist herself to take such a valuable gift but Troy's mother insists on keeping it. She can't help but take it since she knows how stubborn Troy's mother is. **Thank you, Aunt** She smiles, gently touching the necklace. For years, she has been staying over and enjoyed the time with Troy's family. His grandmother was so fond of her that before her death, she kept inviting her over every big day. ** Another thing, Carol!** Troy's mother signs, ** I didn't think about it that much since you two were having a strong bond. But I think I might know why Troy chose to betray you in the first place. I am ashamed of my own son but I think you deserve to know** Carol frowns confusedly, not understanding what she is talking about. ** What are you talking about? Aunt!** She asks, since nothing can be compared to cheating. Troy betrayed her in the worst way possible. Troy's mother takes a deep breath and starts signing, * Six months ago, when you two were planning on getting engaged, I saw my son with one of your uncles!** She reveals, Making Carol shock. ** I don't know what they talked about but when I asked him, he just said it was coincidentally meeting. But I think there is something else** Carol glances at Troy who is feeling embarrassed and humiliated by the entire situation. She takes a deep breath. The pain in her heart is strong enough to hate him immediately. She loved that Man. Moving on isn't easy but she can't look at that face anymore. ** It doesn't matter** She signs her expression is cold and unreadable. ** Now I am married. Whatever they have been planning won't work anymore. Don't worry about me, Aunt! Please enjoy your time here. The hotel rooms are available tonight. So take rest as well!** Instructing, she excused herself to walk towards her newly wed husband who has been talking to his assistant and best friend James Clarke. Seeing her walking towards them with graceful steps, James excuses himself and leaves Damien alone. ** Thanks for today! It was needed!** She signs, sitting on the chair next to him. Damien nods and quietly stays still. She looks at him, trying to remember her husband's face since both of them will be separated from here once all the guests leave. ** So, when are you going to claim your inheritance?** Carol purses her lips and thinks something a bit before responding with her beautiful fingers, ** Within two days. But today I will send the marriage certificate to my late grandparents' lawyer. So it will be fine!** ** Don't you need my help?** He asks. ** Yes. When I meet my paternal family. They're a bit pushy and unbearable. I just need them to shut their stupid mouth!** She rolls her eyes and takes a deep breath. ** Then can you meet me tomorrow? There is a family dinner tomorrow night! I am required to bring my wife or lover** ** Of course. As I promised, I will help you out as a wife as long as you need me!** She assures him. Right after they exchanged the vows and rings, And announced their marriage, Carol and Damien had their own conversation with their upcoming situation and the reason why they're eager to marry each other. Carol didn't hold herself from explaining her situation and made it clear that she would like to go back to her old life with no living together situation except for any sort of emergency. Since she is currently handling her maternal grandparents' company, she didn't want to stay here, in this city. Damien didn't explain anything at all. All he disclosed was he needed a wife or lover because his family was pressuring him to get married to their business partner's children. But he was fine with that arrangement as long as both of them are available for their emergencies. While they're having their own silent conversation, Damien looks at Troy who suddenly appears behind Carol. Troy, extends his arm to touch her shoulder but Damien grabs his wrist, sending a death glare at him, " Don't dare to touch my woman!" He roars in low tone. " Shut up!" He snaps, " I am the one who has been with her for years. Who are you stopping me?" He spats. Carol looks at Troy with disgust but signs Damien to let him go. ** But! He is -** ** Thank you. But I need to talk to him for the last time. Don't worry! I don't look back. Not to the trash!** She smiles but Damien sees fangs. He nods, finding her so badass, in this situation. The expression on Troy's face is priceless. Damien decides to give her space, since the Marriage is only for each other's convenience. ** What do you want to say?** She looks at him disdainfully. Although this face once was so dear to her. Even this morning, she was dreaming about loving this man. ** Carol! I don't care if you get married or whatever. But you can't just throw our years of memories like this. Look** He tries to touch her shoulders but she yanks his hands away from her. ** Fine! Chill. I won't touch you anymore** He said, rolling eyes. ** But you can't move on from everything. I know I made a mistake but every one has their own rights to choose happiness, right? I felt a bit of happiness but I think I am ready to fix everything. Let's get annulment for you. Leave that cripple and come to -** A harsh and rough slap falls across Troy's face who is stunned for a moment. Damien who is yet to leave the sight, turns, finding Carol's face red with fury and Troy is shaking but too stunned to move. ** How dare you try to insult my husband in front of me!! Remember, Troy! I always told you, never mess with me specifically with people who are important to me. You are a selfish gold-digger who doesn't know how to act but dares to mock others. I have loved you for years but I love myself more. I was ready to give you my world but you were too selfish to respect me and my love. So get the fuck out of my sight!** Troy's face burns while feeling a rush of anger all over his body. Each and every ounce of his body is reacting badly. ** All of those years I was the one who accepted you. Do you think you have someone to accept you? No Bitch! Everyone will throw you like a used tissue paper after using you. Even your dearest husband. You will return to me. Because I am the only one who tolerates a burden like you.** " Enough with this bullshit, You Motherfucker!!" Eunice who has been checking on her bestie, finally loses her cool. Eunice is a martial art Master and her body moves faster than her mouth. Everyone gasps when she throws another punch once again right across his nose, making his nose bleed once again, " Nobody in this world can bully my baby. You forgot that I am still here. Just think about yourself, You loser, pathetic stupid. Nobody is here for you. Not even your friends and family want to have a relationship with you! Pathetic bastard!" She grunts, ready to kick his balls, but he immediately covers himself and walks away from them. " This is not the end. You bitch... That deaf will cry and return to me for accepting her. You bet!" " Yeah..Yeah. I bet your life. I will be the one to take it !" Yelling at him as he runs away with his life, Eunice looks at Damien who was ready to attack Troy. She takes a deep breath and speaks, " Listen! Mr Crawley. My Best friend isn't someone you can easily insult or mess with. She can't hear us but she is strong with other sensors. She has a very strong and high self-esteem and confidence. If she thinks you are disrespecting her, she will make you pay for this. So no matter how rich you are, just don't do something stupid like Troy did. That bastard is ungrateful and he is going to face his Karma soon. Don't bring it upon yourself too." She warns clearly, leaving no room for him to think he didn't know about her. Meanwhile, Carol walks towards them, and taps Eunice's shoulder, ** What are you two talking about?** She looks curious. Eunice smiles, shaking her head and hands her phone over, ** Your maternal grandparents are throwing a retirement Party. Are you taking your husband or heading to the honeymoon?** She asks casually. Carol glances at her phone, the email from her Maternal Aunt, where it's addressed that they're throwing a party. She feels somehow bitter. Why didn't they contact her before?What's the color of voice? Red, Green, White or Rainbow? She wants to know. But what she wants to know is how love feels, what kind of color does love have? Red like heart? What's that? What about heartbreak? What color does it have? Black? Dark Red? Carol Bianca sits in front of the mirror, adjusting her wedding veil with trembling fingers. Her reflection stares back at her—hazel eyes glistening with unshed tears, full lips painted a soft shade of pink, and long, chestnut hair cascading over her bare shoulders in loose curls. She looks like a bride from a fairytale, her white dress hugging her figure perfectly, the flowing skirt pooling around her in a sea of satin. It's going to be beach wedding with her some friends as bridesmaids and some guests from her fiancé's side. And she has been planning this wedding for years with the love of her life, Troy Victor. But despite the outward beauty, a shadow of doubt lingers deep inside her chest. She has been deaf since she was six. Th
Carol’s hands tremble as she holds the prenup papers, her vision blurring as tears form in her eyes. 'Why is this happening now?' She looks at Troy, hoping for some sign of warmth, some explanation that would make sense, but his face remains cold, detached, like the man she thought she knew is no longer standing in front of her. **Sign it, and we’ll get married,** he signs and says, his voice flat, no love in his tone. **If not, I won’t risk my future.** Risk his future? Carol’s heart pounds in her chest, the words swirling in her mind like a terrible storm. 'The future we were supposed to share? The life we were building together?' Her fingers tremble as she picks up the pen. Her mind is screaming at her to stop, to ask more questions, but her heart… her heart still clings to the hope that this is just a mistake, something they can work through. Maybe he’s nervous. Maybe this is just about protecting himself, not about her, not about them. Eunice’s voice cuts through he
** I told you not to sign any papers. Now he betrayed you. What are you going to do? Not only did you lose your villa but also you wouldn't get the inheritance from your grandparents if you don't marry today. This is an entire hell!** Eunice out of breath, keeps signing furiously. Her fingers are hurting but she can't help but feel so upset with her best friend who became so pushover and to herself that she didn't stop her properly. Carol stands silently, keeps hanging her head down. She feels numb and silent inside her head. As if she has lost the ability to process what's happening. People are watching her with pity and sympathy. She always hates those pitiful gaze. Now, her love of life accepted her because he was pitying her. ** Carol!** She taps her shoulder, **What will happen if your family knows about it!? Remember the news of your wedding went to your family. What if they aim for your grandparents' inheritance. It will be a devastating situation** Carol's eyes wide
** I hope you aren't making some pity or some reckless decisions. I am not in my right mind to play a marriage game and act like a lovely wife who will love you immediately. Are you sure you don't want someone who truly deserves you? I might ask for divorce anytime soon if we get married!** Carol signs, knowing her heart best. She has loved Troy for her whole life. The betrayal of Troy has stabbed her heart so deeply that the words Love and Trust make her feel disgusted. She doesn't want to involve another man in this messy situation but she has no other choice but to accept his proposal. She must accept her paternal grandparents' wealth as she promised. Life has played the ultimate betrayal with her. Now she wants to throw a blind shot, without any hope. The corner of his lips raise a bit with a silent chuckle as he watches her signing. He takes the handkerchief from his pocket and holds it before her without saying anything first. Mascara has spread under her eyes, making he
