My Fake Wife 1. Turning point
Daisy POV :I reached the marriage registration office half an hour early. I could feel my fingertips are still icy cold. And my whole body shakes by thinking about Dad's reaction when he finds his only daughter running away from home. I am feeling terrible about it. But what can I do, I got the stubbornness from him only. Only the relief is that I am now far away from him. By the time he will be able to locate us, we will be already married. And I hope that mom can manage his wrath.I checked my watch again. Uff!! It's like the time is going like a sloth. As it was a remote area, very few people were there. And my eyes did not stop searching for Victor Steele, my Vicky. He did not like the idea of running away from home and wanted a marriage with the blessings of both families. But he has no idea that it will never happen, as my father thinks that Vicky is after our wealth. I know my Dad, he could be stubborn, but once I prove to him that his assumptions were wrong, he will accept u
My Fake Wife 2. A contract
Benjamin POVI was extremely frustrated with this marriage. But I have to do it, for the sake of my family business. I already have my business empire, but I need my Grandpa's wealth as well. I am not greedy, but that wealth got an emotional attachment to me. That business was flourished by my Dad. He spent his sweat and blood for the company. But when he suddenly passed away Uncle Tom started taking care of it, as I was still studying at that time. When I started to get into the business, I realized that Uncle Tom couldn't run the business properly and the company was already struggling. I know Grandpa will give it to me once I prove how consistent and trustworthy I am. For that, I started a small business, on which I had spent my youth to develop into a multinational business firm. And when I went to Grandpa regarding the Golden Age company, he asked me to get married. What!! I was shocked by his demand. And if I don't get married, Grandpa threatened me that he will transfer the weal
My Fake Wife 3. Preperations
Daisy's POV :I was shocked when I found that he selected the exact ring I liked the most. And when he didn't even ask the price and chose it, I saw the manager's face go into utter shock which he covered immediately. He must be thinking that this husband loves his wife so much. Only if he knew the situation..!! I am a pathetic contracted wife, pretending to be Mrs Harrison for money... And this is all for a show... Hm... Anyways, i have signed in so i should act accordingly. I just followed him as a noble wife. This man is best at acting as he is showing the world about how much he loves his wife.When we went out, Melvin was already back and we went to Harrison International Hotel nearby. I noticed that all the staff wished for Ben, then it struck me. He must be the owner of this hotel, that is why they are way too polite to us. Oh my God, the Harrison's group a famous international one. And i am now married to its CEO.We went to the King's suit, which was huge and Melvin informed
My Fake Wife 4. His Grandpa
Daisy's POV :After a few minutes, we have crossed an enormous gate of a bungalow. I was busy watching the scenery in front of me. Wow!! This place is huge.We crossed the gardens along with different fountains. The limo stopped soon, and before I could get down I heard him say in a serious tone, " Daisy, I need you to keep all your worries aside and act as a lovely wife. They must believe that our marriage is out of love. Don't worry I will talk if they ask for any details. I wanted you to know that this is important. Be polite and don't offend anyone there. Act as the perfect wife okay.."I just nodded at him, then I remembered his previous warning and said, "Okay sir..""Common, let's go inside..."He helped me get down as a gentleman. Of course, he needs to impress his family...We were welcomed by an old lady in uniform."Welcome Master Harrison and Madam..." She smiled politely towards us."Thank you, Aunt Mary..." He replied and moved inside hand in hand with me.Before getti
My Fake Wife 5. Relatives
Benjamin POV :As predicted Daisy has given a good impression on Grandpa. And I think my story worked well too. I hate to lie but my Grandpa is so adamant that I had to do it. So Amanda's engagement is postponed, that's good. Before she can prepare for the wedding, hopefully, Daisy will increase Grandpa's confidence in me. I felt weird whenever I got so close to Daisy. I can agree that she is one of the best among beauties I have ever seen. Like her dark brown eyes are so attractive that I could hardly stop myself from staring into them. It's not like I haven't seen beautiful sexy women. I have seen plenty, but none of them could make me feel anything special for them. And when I was in college, my Dad passed away and the whole tense situation came. Then my only target was to prove myself first in business and take back Our company from Uncle Tom.I never exactly dated anyone or had the time to fall in love. So, it is very difficult for me to talk nicely when it comes to girls. I use
My Fake Wife 6. Friendly mother
Daisy Pov:I can't believe where I am now. In a matter of hours, my whole life changed drastically. I needed a distraction. So I connected myself to the music. Thank God Melvin brought me a phone in time. I don't know how long we are going to stay here. His Grandpa is a nice person. Then why he is playing this drama in front of him?? God only knows. Damn, I got to sleep in this room with him. He looks like a man of his words, so I am trying to relax.As the music started playing, all the memories of Vicky and me started playing in my mind again. My heart ached when the thought of him leaving me came to my mind. Tears started to fall like rain which I had no control over. Why is it hurting me so much when he could easily move on? it would not have hurt if he gave me a proper goodbye. This was like, he never cared about me at all.My idea of distraction backfired me. It was not the best to hear music when we are in extreme pain. Music may heal, but sometimes it may stab the wound again a
My Fake Wife 7. First night with him
Daisy POV:I felt relieved when I heard him behind us. He was just right on time. Otherwise, I would be doomed as to which wife doesn't have her husband's phone number. He joined us soon and put his hand behind my back." Are you enjoying the evening baby??" He asked me sweetly. I know I have to act upon his acting skills. Not bad Mr Benjamin Harrison, you gots skills at acting."Of course Ben. Mom was showing me the fabulous garden you have, especially your favourite daisies..." I replied him with a warm smile."But you're the most favourite Daisy in my life..." he said with a flirting tone while giving me an amazing smile. Wow, He looks so handsome when he smiles. I was looking at him in amazement when I hear his mom say, "Enough lovebirds, let's get inside. It's already dinner time."We followed Mom and Aunt. And went to the dining room where Grandpa, a middle-aged man with judgemental eyes and a young lady was already there. I know her by the file. Amanda, Ben's cousin sister. She
My Fake Wife 8. She looks...
Benjamin Pov:I was glad when Daisy started accordingly in front of others. I was trying to establish our relationship in front of my family. Grandpa is quite happy, whereas Uncle and family are still suspicious about it.After dinner, I made excuses and took Daisy to my room. Huh, this is the first time I am sharing my room with anybody. I hate it whenever somebody enters my room except mom. It's like my private space in which I hardly entertain others. But now I have to share it with a stranger, not my contracted wife. She looked more confused than me and she was standing near the door as if she could easily escape through it if I tried something... Haha... many girls want to be in her position... Many beauties from affluent families had tried to take my attention, but none of them ever won. I know exactly what is going on in her mind, so I told her about the single bed I especially bought for her and I could see the gratitude in her eyes after seeing it. After that, she went to show

My Fake Wife 23. The clause
Ben's POV :It was a busy day at the office. And when I finally had time for lunch, I remembered Daisy. She treated my injured hand and even fed me last night. I'm sure she's eating at the cafeteria. And I always order food from the city's five-star hotels. So I decided to place an order for her as well. Melvin texted her even though he teased me. However, as expected, she preferred to eat in the cafeteria. But when Melvin saw Daisy with a few of our employees, particularly Edwin, coming out of a restaurant, I became irritated. If she wanted to go out to eat with them, she should have told Melvin. I was enraged that she had lied. In that mood I even skipped my lunch.Soon I got her message, but I was obviously in a bad mood. But when she explained why she texted, I felt a little better. At the very least, she wasn't concealing the fact that she had gone out with them. But why is Edwin putting in so much effort on her? I've known him for several years. He is not a player. And I haven't
My Fake Wife 22. Bipolar
Daisy's POV : I was feeling proud when Ben defended me as Amanda tried to use the Jayda card to make me feel bad. I was pleased that his words made her shut her mouth. I knew Grandpa had something important to say. But his attention was drawn to Ben's injury, and he warned him to be more careful in the future. And what he said about our "future children" made me almost choke on the food I was eating. Ben handed me a glass of water, which I quickly drank. Even though Ben said we needed time, I knew Grandpa was eager for a great-grandchild. But he didn't realise it would never happen through me. The main topic of discussion was Amanda's engagement. It is scheduled in two weeks. But what tipped me off was Grandpa's desire to throw a party for us. Especially to introduce me to family members. Grandpa had already decided on it, despite Ben's opposition. He also suggested that I invite my family to help me solve the problems. Uncle Tom and Aunt Amelia took advantage of the situation and ca
My Fake Wife 21. Special someone
Ben's POV : I became enraged when Daisy told me she was being pursued by thugs. I was angry not only with her, but also with myself because I was partially to blame. She wouldn't have left if I hadn't gone with Jayda or returned in time. I wanted to know who dared to look at my wife... even though she is a contractual wife, she is Mrs Harrison. And someone tried to offend her. I can't think about the rest if Edwin hadn't arrived on time. Those who took part in this dangerous game needed to be compensated. And because this is such a personal matter for me, I wanted to make them pay for it myself. I'm familiar with the location she mentioned, and when I went there, three of them were present. They were on high alert as I stepped outside. But I haven't given them the opportunity to flee or fight back. And I used my fighting abilities. When they were almost dead meat, I told them that this was their reward for pursuing my wife. At the time, I felt as if I meant every word of it. Daisy
My Fake Wife 20. Enraged
Daisy's POV : I sigh heavily once he's gone. Although he made me stay home today as punishment, I didn't mind because I had planned to take the day off due to my illness. I attempted to stop him so that I could tell him that Edwin was the person who saved me last night. I gulped instead of responding when he gave me that doubtful look. I have trouble explaining why to him. Why has his proximity to me had such a strong impact on me? The devil, I need to calm down. His mother soon arrived with brunch. and placed the bowl of oatmeal in my hands while sitting next to me. I was perplexed as I stared at her. "Daisy, eat this. It is light and nutritious. When you have a fever, it helps. I've also called the doctor." How do you know I'm unwell, though? Even Ben was unaware that I had a temperature. ...or did he? Is it the reason he advised me to stay in? "Ben informed me, of course. He had told me to look after you. Even though he won't express it out loud, he is a really caring perso
My Fake Wife 19. It was him !
Ben's POV : Daisy…!! She was very surprised by my dinner plan and she loved the view from there. As she talked about her capacity with alcohol, I felt like she was opening up to me. And I would like to know more about her. After all, we are going to spend a year together. If we can have a friendly relationship, that's the best. I was in thought, that's when she called me. Before any of us could respond, Jayda came in. And she didn't leave her usual style even when I introduced Daisy as my wife. Daisy was polite, whereas Jayda completely ignored her and concentrated on me only. She even doubted our marriage and wasn't ready to accept it was real. Yes, that's what Jayda is… She is a very persistent and adamant character. But deep down, all she does is for love. She is my childhood friend and I know her well. I was sure that Amanda would inform Jayda of everything soon and even expected her entry back into my life soon. But, I didn't foresee her appearing here out of the blue. And some
My Fake Wife 18. Night full of surprises
Daisy's POV : I was so delighted to drive the limited edition Ferrari baby. He was so good in my arms. And I sure made an impression on Ben, as he thought I couldn't drive sports cars well. But the day was meant for surprises for me. He took me to the famous mall in town and even stayed with me the whole time. Of course, he was busy on his phone now and then. But, he didn't leave me there alone. I know this shopping was not only because he promised me, but also a publicity stunt. As we were in the crowd and people were gawking at us, he would keep me close or hold my hands. So I went with the flow. After trying the gown, I had to check with him. After all, he is the one paying for it and he must be the one to make sure that the gown suits whatever event is on his mind. He insisted on not changing the dress, so I know he was taking me to some event. I wanted to know more information about it, as I don't know whom I will meet there. I just want to be prepared. But, he wasn't giving an
My Fake Wife 17. Shopping
Ben's POV : I was feeling refreshed today and when Neena informed me that Stella was there to see me, I knew she must have taken the trainees including Daisy to meet me. I am ready to enjoy her awkwardness, whereas Stella came in alone first. She tried her small flirtish talks, but as I have kept a straight face she became professional just like that and invited them in. Daisy came in last in a beautiful dress which showed off her curves well. She didn't raise her head until she came to the front. Her cheeks were a little flushed when she introduced herself. Somewhere I know I am going to enjoy this a lot. But the next thing that happened made me disturbed. Her stupid heels faltered again and she fell into the arms of Edwin, who came to discuss some issue in his department. He is a highly professional and loyal person that has stayed with me from the time I started this company. And I personally respected him as well. Unlike the other employees, he had the right to talk about anythin
My Fake Wife 16. First day at office
Daisy's POV : After thinking for a long time I came to this decision. Even though he acts rudely to me, I have to stick to my word. I have to act as Ben's wife for a year. It would be better if I could work to have a social life as a real me than acting as his wife for twenty-four hours. I need to be myself at that time, as the real Daisy Donovan. And I don't need any favours of being his wife as well. I am sure if I work there as his wife, people around me might pamper me to get their things done. And it might even affect my peace of mind. In his company, only Neena and Melvin know about me. So covering my identity won't be an issue. I thought I would talk with him when he comes back… Then I changed my plan as he might haven't gotten over our last argument. Perhaps, I can tell him tomorrow. I was reading a book when I heard him open the door. I felt his scrutinizing gazes on me. But, somehow I don't want to face him. As soon as he went to take a bath, I planned to go to sleep. But,
My Fake Wife 15. Her request
Benjamin's POV : I haven't seen Daisy since she left the room out of anger. Melvin called me as I had left the office just like that. Hm… Better I won't share anything with him. He would even laugh if he knew that she threw away the flowers I bought for her. Who does she think she is?? She is just a mere employee of mine. And now she dares to raise her voice at me?? She should know who is the boss here… How dare she talk to me like that?? What she doesn't know is, that it's not her choice where she should join. For a year, I am the one who is going to decide her life. After changing clothes, I went out for the dinner we planned with the Alchemy group. It took almost three hours to settle things with them. And Melvin also joined me. Melvin didn't ask anything as he could sense my mood off. I had a few drinks to ease my mind. After the party, when we were coming back home, suddenly he asked. "What is wrong?? I noticed that your mood was a little off today. As we won a big project,
