A Blind Scheme
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Lily was holding her hand which was CONTINUOUSLY bleeding while she was also pressing her scalps because of the pain in them.
She got up slowly and weakly and walked in search of the first aid kit.She wrapped a band-aid on her injured hand when she found it. Even though it was hard to do it with one hand.She then did the chores while sobbing and thinking how can a person be so heartless.She couldn't comprehend what just happened, she was scared that this might happen but still had a little hope regarding Zared. She thought he wasn't a monster like her parents, that maybe he won't hurt her just like her parents did.Lily always thought her parents were cruel,cruel for torturing her for something she had no control over. She grew up hating her parents for what they did to her. She thought of them as heartless beings because who did that to their own child ?But now she wonders if they were to blame, or if it was her all along. What if she was the one who deserved it? Why would everyone in her life treat her in the same way? It was her ,she thought ,she was the problem ,not the people behaving the way they did towards her.She held her head which was now hurting from all the contemplating. She didn't want to worsen the situation especially when there was no one to take care of her so she went to her room and layed on the bed trying to distract herself and sleep.It was 4pm when Lily got Zared's text.Zared : "Stay in the room and pretend you don't exist, I'm bringing my friend tonight and dinner should be ready by then"Lily : "Okay" Lily replied and then sent a smiling emoji but Zared left it on seenGoing back to 4 months ago, Zared longed for someone who would love him and care about him for who he is and not his money. One thing he wasn't aware of was, he already had someone and it was Lily, his very own wife. He wanted someone who would love him like his mom loved him and now he was bound to find someone. So he made a plan.He decided there was only one way to do that. It was a pathetic idea but a practical one for him. He decided to transform into a poor man and beg on the streets of London. Wearing a large amount of makeup with filthy tore clothes would be a good start to act like a beggar is what what he thought. He wondered if any girl would help him, the one who helped him, he would marry her and divorce Lily.He used to have a girlfriend in high school but she turned out to be a gold digger and left Zared with a broken heart, he was deeply in love with his first girlfriend and didn't handle her betrayal very well. Even his friends' girlfriends all turned out to be gold diggers, they used their money and cheated on them. This is when Zared started having this mentality about women that they were all gold diggers and nothing else.Zared didn't care about the looks of the girl but her heart. All he longed for was kindness and love, genuine love.No one knew about this plan of his but his secretary who helped him getting ready for pretending to be a poor man.His secretary arranged all the things he needed for it in his cabin and made sure no one recognised him while leaving.He sat on the road begging in the scorching sun but no one would help him. A few men helped him. No women who passed by cared to even looked at him but instead shook him off feeling grossed out when he asked for money.A few weeks passed by but he didn't find the kind of girl he was looking for. At home he got irritated easily when Lily talked to him. He decided he would stop this poor beggar drama if he doesn't find anyone until the end of the month.Zared was heading out of the house until Lily stopped him"Zared"She called outIt always did something inside Zared when she called his name out,even though he had no feelings for her ,it would always stir something inside him. He somewhere liked when she called his name out.Zared turned to look at Lily,his ocean eyes met her hazel ones.She approached him and handed him a box which looked like a lunch box."What's this?" asked Zared raising his eyebrow"Lunch box...for you,I don't if you have lunch or not and even if you do,it's not healthy to eat outside everyday.So I prepared a lunch box for you"She said smiling a bit hoping to get a kind response from Zared ,at least a thank you would do,she thought."I don't need this" said Zared with a straight face ,he would scream at her in anger if it was a normal day but this action of Lily didn't make him mad enough to react in that way.He was actually quite a bit moved. He felt like he had someone who cared for him but again his thoughts got the best of him and he handed the lunch box back to her."Please don't force me"He said and went out the house.Lily, who was a bit shook by his actions stood there staring into the distance as she saw Zared dissapear from her sight.She felt happy as he talked to her politely this time, really politely. She was beginning to think if Zared was finally ready to look at her as his wife.It was 11 in the morning the next day and there Zared was, being roasted under the sun sitting on the side of the street.Related chapters
My Cold Husband Falling in love
Zared looked up at the people walking by, ignoring his presence. He was outraged by their behavior, he was sitting in the middle of a London street begging, despite being the CEO of the biggest company at the time. Who would find that acceptable? But once more, this was his decision. Zared was thinking about where he was and what he was doing until he noticed a girl, a girl with blonde hair, emerald eyes, pale reddish skin. She was dressed in a white top with straight biege pants and sunglasses resting on top of her head. Zared was enthralled by her beauty but did not expect her to help him. He assumed she was rich and would never look at Zared, the beggar. He still rolled his bowl of coins in front of her to catch her attention. She looked down at him and then his bowl."I won't give you money" She said raising her eyebrows. "Please ma'am, I'm really hungry, I haven't eaten in days" He said hoping she'll help."I can buy you food, but I won't give you any money, is that alright? "
My Cold Husband Doubt ?
She snapped out of her thoughts as he moved away after placing one of the plate in the sink. Lily sighed in despair and thought that maybe it's time to let go off the hope she had, the hope that maybe he was accepting her as his wife, Until.....until she felt two heavy arms sliding on either sides of her waist. She felt his nose snuggling in her neck while his hands rested on her waist. His warm breath stirred something inside Lily and she left an inaudible heavy breath from her mouth."Za-Zared" She said struggling to maintain her breath. "Mmm" He hummed in response busy in taking in the scent from her neck. Lily didn't know what to say further, she didn't plan to say anything after that because she didn't expect him to give a response but now that he did... She didn't know what to do. Zared gripped Lily's arm and turned her around.'Too close, again too close, way too close.' thought Lily. His eyes travelling from her eyes to her lips continuously. Only some centimeters left bet
My Cold Husband The Calm before the Strom
Zared stopped at the door of Lily's room. He contemplated whether to go in or not. His hand extended towards the handle of the door but stopped midway, he pulled his hands back to himself, took a deep breath and opened the door in one go. The lights of the room were out, he switched on the lights but when he glanced at the bed, Lily wasn't there, the bed was made like in the morning so she certainly wasn't in the room. He still wanted to check, he took his steps towards the washroom, knocked at it and then opened the door after a while. He peeked inside but no one was to be found. He got out of the room taking long strides, going downstairs, he searched the kitchen, the storeroom, another guestroom which was a bit behind the staircase but he didn't find her. His eyes darkened, his jaw tightened and his nails dug into his palms as he closed his fists tightly. He was furious, He rushed to the main door with the lights still off and went to the backyard, the garden, even the parking to

Zared's jaw tightened as he remembered last night's events, she was out with another guy and here he was holding his breath so she doesn't wake up. He got up and shaked Lily harshly in order to wake her up. He put his hands inside the pockets of the trousers he was wearing and looked at her sleeping figure which didn't even budge. He made his way towards the kitchen and came back with a glass full of water. He took a quick glance at her and didn't wait before splashing the water on Lily's face. It was like he was a whole different person a while ago. The person who was worried for her and the person who just splashed a glass full of cold water on her face to wake her up. Lily instantly sat up , wiping the water from her face and eyes while gasping. She looked down at her wet clothes and then looked up to see Zared standing, staring at her with his piercing gaze . She got up from the couch quickly while the water dripped from her chin and her clothes. "Looks like you slept very well,

"Oh..great"They walked towards the bench on the street and took a seat there. Zared didn't know where to start, how to say it. He couldn't understand what should he start with, how does he invite her. Ask her to be at Knightsbridge tonight? she would undoubtedly find out if he invited her to Knightsbridge, which of course she's not supposed to.'Do I tell her about me right now?...No, I can't do that out of the blue' he thought to himself. He was thinking what exactly he should tell her when she interrupted his thoughts. "You look tense, is everything alright?""Yeah,no-yeah, I'm alright" Zared sighed, he couldn't think of anything so he decided to just tell her where and when to be present tonight."I wanted to invite you""oh! where to? ""Knightsbridge"her eyes widened a bit and her brows drew together. "Knightsbridge? what for?" she chuckled"Just...be there tonight... at 8 pm, I'll text you the whole address. I hope you're not busy? ""No, no I am not but, I don't understan

After changing into a T shirt and a trouser, he got out of his room and reached at the end of the hallway to Lily's room, he raised his hand to knock on the door but paused midway and directly opened the door He saw Lily, sitting in front of the dressing table applying something on her hand. She turned back. "Z-Zared? " "What are you doing?""Nothing, I was just- nothing, when did you get home? I didn't hear the door""That is why I am asking, what were you so busy in? "Before Lily said anything, Zared made his way beside her to take a look at what she was doing. Lily was sitting with a wound ointment, applying it on the wound on her hand. His mouth opened at the realization, the blood on his hands, was not his but Lily's. It was from when he had gripped her hand tightly this morning, that caused her wound to bleed that stained his hand as well. He didn't know her hand was hurt, that she had a wound there. Zared decided to break the silence."Did I do this?""No!-no, it's the b
My Cold Husband Broken Trust and Shattered Heart
"You're what?!!" Riley shouted in shock. "Riley-""What the actual hell Zared?!!""Riley, listen to me-""Are you kidding me right now?! What do you take me for??!""Riley just listen to me for God's sake!" Zared raised his voice making Riley flinch. "It's not what you're thinking it is Riley, it's a contract marriage, both of us were forced in it and it's just on the papers and for the people to see, it's not real, I don't love her and I swear I haven't even touched her, ever. Believe me""What do you mean it's a contract marriage, Zared? it's for the people? which people, please tell me I would really like to know""Our business partners, the employees, the fans""Are you a celebrity or something? ""I own the 'The Williams'. ""What?"Zared nodded. "You.are.Zared Williams? You're the son of 'The Williams'?!"Zared nodded yet again. "Did you set me up or something?""Riley, please, try to believe me, It's not a set up""I need time, Zared. I'm sorry but this is too much for me t
My Cold Husband Different Worlds
Zared quickly turned off the shower, slipped into his pjs and took his steps towards Lily's room. He tore the door open and saw Lily lying down on the bed peacefully. He went to her and grabbed her up from the bed yanking her. "Look at you sleep shamelessly like this, it's all because of you, all of it! ""What-what are you talking about? " Lily was confused, she didn't know what was happening, wasn't he with his girl a while ago? Why is he so angry all of a sudden? these thoughts ran through Lily's mind. The next moment Lily's cheek met with a tight slap which she never expected right now. She looked up at Zared with red teary eyes and a cherry red cheek. "What are you doing? " Lily asked him in anguish, she wasn't angry, she was disappointed, she was in loss of hope. "This is what you deserve for ruining everything for me, first you ruin my peace and now my life, you must be enjoying it with a popcorn, am I right?! ""What are you talking about Zared? " she cried. "What happe

My Cold Husband Inner Demon
“I know what I did was wrong.” He said, “I don’t expect you to forgive me, but I just…I need you to know that I didn’t mean to hurt you. I was just-” “Obsessed,” Clara interjected, her eyes narrowing as she stared at him. “You’re obsessed, Aaron. With Lily. And it’s unhealthy.” Aaron opened his mouth to protest, but Clara didn’t give him a chance. “Do you even realize what you’ve done? Do you understand how far you’ve gone? You pulled a gun on me, Aaron! All because I suggested that Lily give Zared another chance. What is wrong with you?” Her words cut deep, and Aaron felt a lump form in his throat. “I wasn’t thinking clearly,” he tried to explain, but even to his own ears, it sounded like a weak excuse. “No, you weren’t,” Clara snapped. “Because all you can think about is Lily. You’re so obsessed with protecting her, with keeping her safe, that you’ve lost sight of everything else. And it’s not just unhealthy, Aaron. It’s dangerous.” Aaron felt a cold chill run d
My Cold Husband Realisation of Actions
Aaron’s voice was cracking as he realized the gravity of his actions. “I didn’t mean to…” Clara’s eyes were filled with tears as she took a cautious step back. She could see the conflict in Aaron’s eyes, the regret starting to take hold, but the fear she felt was overwhelming. “I can see what you meant to do” she repeated, her voice barely a whisper. Aaron’s hand trembled as he lowered the gun. The weight of what he had just done pressed down on him like a physical burden. He had crossed a line he never thought he would cross, and now he had to live with the consequences. For a moment, the two of them just stood there in silence, the air thick with tension and unspoken words. Then, without another word, Clara turned and fled the room, leaving Aaron standing there alone, the gun still in his hand, his mind reeling from what had just happened. Upstairs, Lily sat on her bed, completely unaware of the confrontation that had just taken place downstairs. She assumed Aaron and Clara
My Cold Husband A Weapon Between Friends
“Clara, it’s not that simple,” Lily finally said, her voice barely above a whisper. She looked down at her hands, trying to keep her emotions in check. “A lot has happened. I don’t know if I can just forgive and forget like that. I don't understand-why would you say that?” “I’m not asking you to forget,” Clara said softly. “But maybe… maybe you could give him a chance to show you that he’s changed. That he’s truly sorry, look I’m not trying to get you back with him, but just give him a chance to entirely explain himself, so you can decide for yourself?” “But, you were so against him, you didn't even want to see his face, what happened?” “I met him recently,” Clara continued after a pause “he was miserable, Lily, I know it sounds ridiculous and I tried to tell him how he was a monster and didn't deserve to be with you but-but the pain in his eyes explained it all, look, I don't know if you would ever get back with him or not but I just want you to know that he’s truly sorry.” Li
My Cold Husband Hoping for Forgiveness
By the end of the second day, Lily had had enough. She was tired of the silent treatment, tired of the way Aaron was pretending like nothing had happened while simultaneously avoiding her like the plague. She knew she had been harsh during their argument, but she also knew that ignoring each other wasn’t going to solve anything. That evening, as she sat in her room, staring blankly at her notes, she made a decision. She wasn’t going to let this continue. She wasn’t going to let Aaron shut her out any longer. If he wasn’t going to talk to her, then she was going to make him listen. Without another thought, she stood up, marched out of her room, and headed straight for Aaron’s. She knocked on the door, and when there was no answer, she knocked again, louder this time. “Aaron, I know you’re in there,” she called out, her voice firm. “We need to talk.” There was a long pause, and for a moment, Lily thought he might not open the door. But then she heard footsteps, and a moment later, t
My Cold Husband Avoiding Her
“Lily, aren’t you ready yet?” Clara asked, a hint of concern in her voice. “Aaron already left.” Lily’s heart skipped a beat. “He did?” she asked, surprised. “When?” “A little while ago,” Clara said, leaning against the doorframe. “I thought you two were going to walk to the university together?” Lily felt a pang of something she couldn’t quite identify, disappointment, perhaps. She had assumed that, despite everything, they would still go to the exam together and everything would be back to normal today. “I guess not,” she muttered, pulling herself out of bed and quickly getting dressed. Clara watched her with a knowing look. “You two need to talk,” she said softly. Lily didn’t respond, but Clara’s words echoed in her mind as she hurried through her morning routine. She couldn’t deny the truth in what Clara had said. Things between her and Aaron had been strained ever since that awkward moment, and if they didn’t address it soon, it would only get worse. But for now, ther
My Cold Husband Regret Upon Actions
Clara turned around to look at her and sighed as she heard what Lily said and sat beside her on the bed with her hand on top of her’s. Lily let out a breath she hadn’t realized she was holding. She closed her eyes, trying to calm the storm of emotions swirling inside her. But it was no use. The more she tried to push it down, the more it bubbled to the surface, threatening to overwhelm her. “You know you can tell me anything, right?” “I know, but- it's just, weird, I guess” “It’s okay if you don’t want to share it, but, just so you know, I won’t ever judge you.” Lily pressed her lips together and looked at Clara. “Thank you. I-nothing actually happened, but it was going to.” ‘and..is it bad that it was going to happen?’ “Yes,yes, of course, it shouldn’t happen, never, and thanks to you it didn’t, but, it just makes me feel weird.”Lily looked down at her hands. “It’s okay to feel that way, but, why do you think it shouldn’t happen, like ever?” Clara asked curiously.
My Cold Husband Rage and Remorse
And why did it feel like he had just dodged a bullet?Aaron’s face kept flashing in her mind, the way he had looked at her, the way he had leaned in so close... What had he been thinking? What had she been thinking? She didn’t even know anymore. All she knew was that she couldn’t stop replaying that moment in her head, couldn’t stop feeling the way her heart had skipped a beat when he had leaned in.But there was one thing she knew for sure, she wasn't ready for whatever this was-she wasn't ready for any more drama, there was nothing going on between them and it will stay like that, she thought to herself.But those feelings quickly gave way to anger, anger at herself for letting it happen, and anger at Aaron for putting her in that position. What had he been trying to prove? That he could just kiss her whenever he felt like it? That she was just there for him to do with as he pleased? Was this his motive all along ? Was this why he kept helping her? Making her feel safe and comfortab
My Cold Husband Study Session Gone Wrong?
Lily didn't move forward but she didn't move backwards either. As he was about to touch her lips with his, a voice came in from behind, the door clicked. “I-I’m so sorry, I-I didn't mean to-you know what, I’m gonna go, I am so sorry, bye!” Aaron and Lily sat stunned as Clara left, closing the door again leaving both of them alone once again. Lily turned around looking back at the books while Aaron did the same. Aaron’s heart was pounding as he and Lily sat there, the weight of the almost-kiss pressing down on them both. The silence between them was thick, a palpable tension that neither seemed to know how to break. The once cozy room now felt stifling, and the air was charged with unspoken words. Lily kept her eyes fixed on the books in front of her, pretending to be engrossed in their contents, but her mind was racing. Aaron, on the other hand, couldn't shake the feeling of his heart hammering against his chest, the taste of regret already forming on his tongue. He had come so
My Cold Husband Studying Session
Meanwhile Zared, who caught sight of her couldn't just sit there with the information of her being at the same place as him. Maybe it’s a sign? He asked himself, feeling the excitement and hope within him, he couldn't contain them anymore, he had to get up and approach her, he couldn't just sit there and do nothing. He waited for her to be seated with her coffee and as soon as she did, he didn't miss a beat to go up to her. “Riley.” He called her as he stood in front of her. Clara lifted her head up to look at him. “What do you want? And I’m Clara.” She demanded rudely. “Right, I’m sorry.” He apologized nervously “Clara, can we talk ?” “What for ? I don't go around talking to r*pists just so you know.” “Clara, please, may I ?” He asked, pointing at the seat in front of her. She nodded at him, sighing. “I’ll get to the point and not waste your time,look ...Clara....I know you hate me but...I'm not the same person anymore...trust me,I'm not lying." "What.do.you.
