Crystal had her hair done right after she was scrubbed clean by those people Kayden called in; she had never been forced to have a bath in her life especially by women in her peer. Once you are married to a multi-billionaire, your life isn't yours anymore; she cringed when someone scrubbed some pale white liquid along her back. She was dressed in a green floral gown that made it just a little above her knees, the design is very simple. It had a bow just at the waist to fasten it and a button at her left breast. It looked, felt and smelled expensive, it felt illegal to wear something like this; but since she is Kayden’s wife this are the benefits she enjoyed.She was enjoying the benefit at what cost? They selected silver heels to match the earrings and necklace she was putting on, and they added more curls to her golden hair. She was gingerly led out of the room, and led out to the hall. Kayden was there, dressed in a Tuxedo, and was it necessary to make all this fuss
Crystal’s eyes narrowed at him curiously, finding his comment suspicious. “What does that mean?” she asked and he closed the distance between them, both of his hands in his pocket as he stared down at her. Something about how tall he is, threatened her.“Right? I remember that you didn’t even read the contract you didn’t get to the part where it says, I could change the content of the contract as I see fit.” Her eyes widened in realization, she didn’t read it because she didn’t understand it and yet she stupidly signed it. “You tricked me?” she asked and he shook his head slowly. “It’s pointless tricking someone who is so stupid.” He confirmed with a sadistic smirk on his face. “I didn’t know you will foolishly believe everything I tell you, it’s so hilarious.” He lets out a mocking laugh. She sniffed as she moved away from him; her lips quivering from the realization.Just what on earth did she sign? She should have requested for a lawyer, she should have asked him to g
Kayden had no choice but to drive them to his house, whatever impression he was trying to make on the media would have worked and he was already tired of pretending. Crystal was bleeding and she didn’t let anyone touch her wounds not even him; and he can’t have her passing out due to blood loss. She had this stubborn streak he found provocative, not many girls are like her especially when they are with a man like him. Most girls would just dance to his tunes and live their lives exactly like he wanted, he had the money and they would be benefitting from his power but what was this woman’s deal? Why is she trying so hard to be different? There was just one explanation; she was acting, sooner or later she would start to reveal her true colors and her greed because in the end she is just like her sister, a hungry gold digger. Crystal’s eyes were glued outside the window of the car, not uttering a word throughout the drive; she was lost deep in thought and the further they go th
“What is going on here?” Kayden bellowed from behind, he was already at the entrance of the bathroom and his eyes were consumed not by worry but by a certain irritation. He was slightly surprised at the state he met Crystal, but aside from the fact that she was laying on the floor there seemed to be no other cause for emergency. “Mr. Smith!”She acknowledged him, and in an instant she ran behind him, she whimpered slightly. “I-I saw it, it’s big and hairy!” she reported clinging unto his shirt as she hid behind him, she was pointing towards the ceramic sink, his silvered eyes perused the sink but they couldn’t find anything unusual.“There is nothing there,” He scolded as he pushed her away from him. “What trouble are you trying to stir?” he turned towards her and her expressions drops; she had totally forgotten what kind of man Kayden is. “I’m not trying to stir up any trouble, there was a spider there.” She defended immediately. “So, what if there is a spider?” He inquired h
Crystal woke up early this morning, their week long honeymoon ended last night. She would have preferred if the honeymoon never happened, but Kayden had insisted on spending the week together to make their story seem believable. She didn’t have a phone, she couldn’t communicate with Paige or her sister, and there was absolutely nothing to do. She was bored out of her mind and even though she had taken a month long leave from work, she can’t help but want to go outside; if she spends one more day within these walls without conversing with reasonable people, she would lose her mind. She got dress in sky blue jeans pants that hugged her legs elegantly, and she picked a plain red shirt that was contrasting with her other clothing. It didn’t matter, she wasn’t in the mood, and she didn’t have the luxury of time. While she was dressing she heard a small but sharp knock that came from the door, and she could bet her left eye, that the person knocking isn’t Kayden. For the f
“Crystal,” Paige cried out in surprise, immediately she spotted her best friend lifelessly ambled into the office, and she ran towards her. “What happened to you? I’ve been worried sick, I tried to call you but I couldn’t reach you—“ she stopped abruptly, her eyes narrowed as she inspects Crystal’s pale face, she noticed her eyes were swollen. “Hey, are you sick?” Her hands cupped Crystal’s face. “I’m fine, Paige.” She muttered. “I’m just a little tired.” “But you look so bad,” she said as she pulled Crystal into a hug and patted her back.“Is it Kayden?”Crystal paused slightly, she couldn’t deny it anymore, she sobbed loudly, and Paige just hugged her while she cried. “You wouldn’t tell me what happened?” Paige asked as Crystal blew her nose into the tissue, and as soon as she was done, she tosses it into the bin. “It’s not worth it Paige, just keep it in mind, Kayden Smith is an asshole.” She reported with a grim expression. “You should stop admiring him!” “I’ve stopped admirin
Crystal had passed the night, with her heart in her mouth, she had been afraid that Kayden would come back to get her. However, he didn’t, she wondered what he would have done to her if he did, he seemed very angry at her actions and there was this gut feelings that told her that what she did last night would come back to haunt her. He didn’t seem like a person who would use violence, he seemed that he rather prefer to use demeaning words against her; she felt physical abuse wouldn’t be an option for him. There was a small knock at the door and Crystal froze, her eyes widening from the shock, there was no one in the house last night, it was just Kayden and her. If there was no one in the house, then who would be knocking so early in the morning? Was it Kayden? Is he here to get back to her for yesterday? She debated within herself, either to open the door or not and when she finally decided to, she became hesitant to move, and the knock came again but this time sligh
“What’s going on here?” she asked curiously, in case there was some sort of information she was missing. The hulk like men, just stood behind Kayden like the dogs they were, they were waiting for the next order. “Mr. Smith, I’m very aware that this is your house, but you should at least respect my privacy; I don’t mind if it’s just you who barges into my room with no warning, but are you really going to allow some strangers into my room like it is a stadium?” Kayden just nodded at them and in an instant, they were on the move, turning her things over searching for something that wasn’t lost in her room. “Mr. Smith, what the hell is going on here?” She asked as she approached one of the men that were holding her work tools. “Hey, put that down right now!” She heard a very shocking snap, she gasped and turned in the direction of the sound, her eyes widened in shock when she noticed that they had broken the canvas, the painting she was making.All her hard work...“No!” she approached
