My 18-Year-Old Contract Bride The Visitor
Upon hearing the workers’ words, Martha swiftly rose to her feet, assuming a defensive pose as she hurried over to Mia's cubicle, spreading her hands in a protective gesture. "Guys, please. Leave her out of this."Everyone was surprised. Why was she suddenly being so protective?"Mia has been through a lot; please, just leave her out of this. Please."The entire office scrutinized Mia. What was going on?Just then, Veronica, who had been silent all this time, flared up. "Why? Why are you protecting her?" She snapped, sneering.Facing everyone, she spat out venom, "Mia didn't say anything because she's jealous of Martha!""What?!" The entire office was thrown into a frenzy."Jealous in what sense?""As how?""They're best friends, aren’t they?”Scoffing, Veronica continued, "Yes, jealous. She once tried to steal Martha's position by snatching Max from her. Thank goodness the heavens interven--"Before she could finish, Martha swiftly shuffled over, clasping her hand over Veronica's mou

Yvonne sighed, placing her glass on the table. She gazed straight at Mia, asking, "how much do you want?"Mia's head snapped up in bewilderment. She was lost, struggling to grasp the woman's words."Don't play dumb," Yvonne scoffed. "You might fool Shawn and Damien by feigning gullibility, but not me. Cut the act."With each word, Mia's heart pounded."Feigni..." Her small voice trailed off. "I don't quite un..."Yvonne couldn't believe the girl's adept pretense. The urge to strike her across the face overwhelmed her, but she suppressed it."How much to keep away from Shawn?" She inquired calmly.Mia blinked in disbelief, "Excuse me?""50 million?" Yvonne cut in sharply."What?!" "150 million?"Mia’s eyes widened in disbelief.Noticing the girl's lack of response, Yvonne interpreted it as dissatisfaction with the offered amount. She scoffed."Fine. I'll wire you a check of 500 million. You won't find a better offer anywhere. Just vanish from sight," she added, "it won't be challengin

Same day. Beats Corporations Headquarters."Did she really say that to her?" The CEO mused while on the phone. "One should know their place too."What was Yvonne thinking, going to his wife's workplace to bully her?Initially, as Jasper reported the meeting between Little One and Yvonne, his blood boiled. However, upon hearing Mia's response to Yvonne, he couldn't help but burst into deep, throaty laughter. That was his girl."Anyway, good job."With that, he ended the call.It might seem as though his wife had more fire in her than she appeared. She wasn't the pushover she seemed to be.Chuckling, Shawn returned to work.____________A couple of days passed, and soon it was the weekend.Shawn Mendez's residence buzzed with activity as he and his wife planned to visit his mother-in-law that morning.After preparing several hamper baskets with ample provisions, the maids loaded them into the car trunks."Ready?"

"How did you meet her?" Shawn's deep voice resonated with curiosity."Huh?" Mia looked up, puzzled by the unexpected question.What was he talking about?"You said she's not your birth mother, so how did you two cross paths?" He calmly inquired once more.Mia's eyes blinked repeatedly, and she took a deep breath as her mind strolled down memory lane.She began, "My dad brought in a woman and a daughter a few months older than me right after my mom was buried. It was devastating. From the moment they stepped into our house, I knew no peace. Three years ago, one night, I left home with the determination never to return." She paused and then continued, "Tears streamed down my face as I ran along the roadside with no destination in mind. Just as I kept running, I came across a burning vehicle."Shawn inhaled sharply, his heart pounding in his chest."An accident happened... Shattered glass scattered on the ground... Fear gripped me. Without a phone to call the police and the area eerily s

Mia realized that over the last three years, she had unknowingly been tending to her husband's mother—her mother-in-law. The realization left her incredulous. Despite processing the information over and over again, it felt like an enduring, surreal dream.Suddenly, Shawn's arms enveloped her shoulders from behind, causing her to freeze. ‘What’s going on?’"Thank you," he whispered in his husky voice, his minty breath sending a shiver down her spine as the hairs on the back of her neck stood on end.Each time Mia hurried to the hospital, even on every weekend, it was all for his mother. Shawn couldn't help but feel gratitude."Thank you," he whispered once more.___________The couple stayed in the ward until the next morning. Mia dozed off after a few hours of tending to her mother-in-law, while Shawn remained awake throughout the night until daybreak.Doctor Alfred and his colleagues came to check on the patient five times throughout the night before dawn, ensuring she was perfectl

After Jennifer's discharge, she, along with her son and daughter-in-law, drove home to Magnificent residential area. Upon arrival, the vehicle pulled up directly in front of the front door, making it easy for the three of them to enter the mansion swiftly.When they entered the lounge, Old Master Mandez, with an anxious, hunched back, couldn't hold back tears as his eyes met his daughter-in-law. Early that morning, Shawn had called and informed him of the latest development, prompting him to rush straight to his grandson's house in anticipation.Jennifer burst into tears as she hurried forward and embraced the old man."I never thought I'd see you again. It's been so long; I thought you were dead..." Old Master Mandez's voice hitched, his hand gently patting her back."I'm not dead, Father. This is me, hale and hearty."

Amanda maintained a serious gaze as she spoke. “Don't get me wrong, I know she saved you and all, but that doesn't mean she should covet the position of Lady of Beats Corporations.""Plus,” She paused, “now that I think of it, the accident that year had been an attack—doesn't it seem suspicious? She comes to rescue you right after the accident... She paid the hospital bills and looked after you all these while… She met Shawn, and they're now together... “When I connect the dots, I can't help but be suspicious of her. There's more to her than meets the eye, don't you think so?"“She didn’t even make any effort to contact us while you were still in a coma…”Jennifer processed and digested all of Amanda's words, her eyes narrowing thoughtfully. Now that her attention was called to them, the pieces seemed to fit perfectly."You might be right." She nodded.The corners of Amanda's mouth curled, "you see? Let's find Shawn another wife.

While pondering this, she observed him turning away from the partition and strolling down the corridor.Upon catching sight of her, Nathan’s steps slowed, yet a few seconds later, he averted his gaze and walked past her.Veronica released the breath she hadn't realized she had been holding.She turned and watched his retreating form... So handsome... Her lips curled up in a cute smile. Actually, the only reason she had come to B.Y TV was to be close to Nathan Anderson—Come to think of it, why was he on her office floor?Her brows furrowed, she walked over to where he had been standing earlier and peered through the glass."There's nothing here," she muttered.However, as she turned away, her eyes swiftly darted to the cubicle directly across from where she stood, on the other side of the partition.Mia Thompson.

Jennifer Mandez smiled, observing the girl's downcast expression as she joined her side. She gently took off her gloves and cradled Mia's cheeks in her palms."Be free with me, Mia. I'm your mother as well. I held that title before I resumed being Shawn's mother," she chuckled.She paused briefly before continuing, "I want you to forgive me for hurting you. I apologize sincerely. Now, I know better. You're a rare gem, and I wouldn't want Sunshine to be with anyone but you."Mia's eyes widened, "Does that mean we have your blessing to proceed…?"She nodded, grinning."Thank you, Mom!" The girl squeaked happily, and they embraced in a tight, warm hug.“Now, we have to start preparing for the wedding. The date’s just around the corner.”She nodded and they both returned back inside.Soon, the wedding day arrived.

I was initially going to let you be. However, things changed after discovering you were the one who instigated the accident three years ago. And then you completely crossed the line by sending me those absurd threat messages," Shawn's icy voice confronted Anderson.Anderson stood, clearly taken aback. He hadn't anticipated Shawn's discovery to be so soon. He usually covered his tracks meticulously…“Why?

Upon arriving home, Shawn tenderly lifted his wife and placed her in their bedroom; she had fallen asleep during the ride. Delicately, he undressed her and tucked her into bed, taking a moment to remove her makeup with beauty wipes.As he disposed of the used wipes, Mia's phone started ringing on the nightstand. Without hesitation, he picked it up and noticed that the caller ID was unknown. He answered the call and brought the phone to his ear."Mia, I apologize. It's all my fault. Please, let's reconcile and go back to how we used to be."Upon hearing those words from the caller, Shawn's brows furrowed in irritation. Without uttering a word, he promptly ended the call.

Veronica observed, sipping her cocktail, "Ah, so you two are acquainted." She taunted Martha, "Give this cocktail a try; after all, you seem to enjoy coveting what doesn't belong to you."Martha, a hint of fear in her voice, responded quickly, "Um, I don't know him."Veronica clicked her tongue in irritation, shaking her head at Martha's facade. How could she have been so blind to see the girl’s true color all these while?Everyone eyed the person who had just stepped in with confused expressions on their faces. The boy seemed to be around their age, however, he wasn’t familiar at all. He didn't bear the hallmarks of someone from their high school."Who's he?""No idea.""Recognize him?""Not at all."Veronica smiled, reassuring them, "Relax, everyone. You're about to meet him now."Martha's heart raced, fear escalating within her.Veronica turned to the newcomer, asking, "Tell us who you are and what brings you here."The guy's eyes shifted, locking onto Martha.

"Vicky Lewis!" Gasps echoed through the room as all eyes fixated on the newcomer.Mia was also taken aback to see her. She hadn't crossed paths with Vicky since she was expelled from high school, making tonight's encounter unexpected. Instinctively, an uneasy feeling settled within her.Was she here to bully her?However, Mia wasn't alone in her discomfort. Another individual seemed to be grappling with an even stronger sense of unease in response to Vicky's presence.'Why is she here? How did she manage to appear?'

A silver necklace firmly adorned on her neck added a touch of poise, creating a simple yet tasteful look for the one-month school reunion.Martha waved her hand dismissively, cheeks turning a rosy hue as she blushed at the compliments pouring in. “Oh, come on, you guys. Enough about me. You all look fantastic yourselves,” she chuckled, taking her seat."Ah, I know. Max is treating her well.""Trueeee!" The collective cooing echoed.Martha simply giggled.

Without warning, he marched towards the mini lounge, retrieving a lighter from the center table.Returning to Mia, he set ablaze the documents held in his grasp before one could comprehend what was about to happen.Mia let out an immediate shriek, her eyes widening in sheer horror.
