My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 1 Cardyn’s I facepalmed. Just what the hell did I do last night? Sat on the very-soft-tempting-sofa, comfort was out of the question since I am in a dire situation faced with someone I would never want to make any deal. But… “Forgot about your husband that fast?” Crap. Can something hit my head so I can lose all of my memories just like in those dramas and feign ignorance about this man? Or should I call him my husband? I stared at the registered marriage certificate between me and this man clearly, without a mistake, dumbfoundedly. I clicked my tongue, attempting to look cool. “I… Sir Manzo, I pray that this is just one of the jokes you like to play?” He slightly frowned, shaking his head in disagreement. “I’m afraid not. This is a real, legitimate, reliable, and credible marriage certificate between you and me.” I slapped the table between us in slight anger, “Still!” I huffed, moving my eyes to him, “Last night was just a play.” He smirke
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 2 “Ma, I’m home!,” I called out to my one and only Mother, who peeked from the kitchen and nodded at me. I took off my slippers, heading inside. The breakfast she was cooking tempted me into wanting to take a taste but since it hasn’t been cooked, I stopped myself. “Dear, where were you off to last night?” She warmly smiled at me, intending to hug me to which I gave her one with a kiss on her cheek. “I was waiting for you, but you didn’t come.” I guiltily laughed, scratching my cheek. I will never be in my right mind if I tell her that ‘Mom, I had a one-night stand and got married!’. Only those insane would be able to reveal what they did. “I… I told you about the apartment I wanted to rent…” I looked away from her innocent eyes which tempted me to be honest with her and went on my white lie, “S-So I… I slept there.” She frowned at me. “What do you mean? I called the tenant last night, but he told me you weren’t there.” I’m doomed. It’s that D
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 3 Dalvin’s I tapped my elbows, dazedly looking at the documents in front of me. I could read but I guess it was because of that woman who dared to stomp my feet. However I think about it, it’s just aggravating that I didn’t even scold her. Had I been too complacent or charmed? I touched my throbbing forehead, unable to accept the truth that had occurred. How many days had it been— three days since I got married but my supposedly wife is nowhere to be seen? “Sir, Luke Harriet has come.” I smirked. “Let him inside.” Cardyn Harriet, let’s see who you are for real. As the door opened, the worry Luke Harriet headed inside as his repetition blinking made me annoyed, so I looked away. He bowed at me. “Y-you called for me, Sir?” At least even if he was nervous, he was still polite with me. He was the complete entity from that Cardyn, my wife. “That Cardyn Harriet,” I took a sigh, “Is your younger sister, right?” Luke frowned without lifting his gaz
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 4 Cardyn’s When I regained my consciousness, I was lying on the bed without no one by my side. My head was quite aching making me inadvertently shaking it, intending to remove the headache. The last thing I remember was that man who pulled me into his arms and kidnapped me! Where did he… Oh, this is my room. Why am I in my room? Wasn’t I in his car and tied up? I looked at my wrists, and there was faint red spot around it. As expected, that man is no good. He really let mee have red spot around my wrists. Ah, it’s making me angry. Without prompting for my head to feel better, I climbed down the bed and headed outside. I swear if I see that man in this house, I’d make him pay for the loss he caused. I didn’t receive Kurt’s payment! I had a plan involving that money and he had to ruin that! “Wife, you’re awake?” Who dare call me… I scoffed, looking at the shamelessness this man got. I glimpsed at my mother who was suspiciously grinning at me so
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 5 Cardyn’s Luke folded his hands on his chest, uncomfortable about the whole situation. If he felt unsettled about it, what’s more when I was the one the most who felt used to this whole situation. I rolled my eyes at him, feeling aggravated. After dealing with Daniel the way he wanted to, I went to work – I am a manager in a restaurant. “Why are you here?” Luke drank the lemonade juice I made especially just for him. If marrying Daniel Manzo wasn’t enough, what’s more when Manzo’s company is near this restaurant? It only meant that I was destined to encounter Daniel occasionally. Luke glared at my wedding ring. “I am here to ask you. What happened to you and him?” I sighed, “Why do you want to know? I thought you wouldn’t want to meddle in my affairs?” His lips twitched then placed the glass loudly on the table. Therefore, I warned him, “If that glass breaks, you’ll have to pay for it.” He scoffed, “Aren’t you married to someone wealthy? Buy
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 6 Cardyn’s Having that one-night stand with him shouldn’t have that much effect on him. Since it should have been me who was fantasizing future but I wasn’t. Upon discovering I rolled the sheets with Daniel Manzo, I dared not dream of having a family with him. Besides, let’s just say we just got into the mood and went along with the atmosphere. I wasn’t that drunk but it may be because of the alcohol I drank that night. I don’t know why Daniel badly wanted to have a marriage binding us together. I was forced, but he… I think for him this was just a mere play. I clicked my tongue and averted my eyes from him. I shouldn’t say things like this to him knowing that my brother is working under him, he could take revenge on me using Luke. I sighed and was unwilling to forfeit. Why do I have to act all kind and sweet like other women just to please him? I gritted my teeth, “It’s my fault,” I lowered my head, “I… went overboard. I will be cautious from
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 7 Cardyn's When I was young, I used to imagine how life would have felt like if I were in a Disney movie or land. I imagined it to be perfect, additionally not having to worry about money or something like that. However, as I grew up in a rather humble background, I dare not complain for I knew that's the capacity of my parents and I am just fine with it. Though sometimes it's good to imagine if my life was any different from my current status, I didn't want to leave what I had been accustomed to and be treated as though I was some noble lady like what was happening right now. Awkwardly, I lifted the knife beside the plate with a forced tug of my lips. I internally debated what to cut and eat first as there were a lot of dishes to pick from. In our house, I only got to eat a maximum of three dishes overall including the rice in our bowls. Sometimes, when I eat in a food chain I order a maximum of four different orders and I must eat all of them t
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 8 Cardyn's I don't know why Wilson saw Kurt when I just saw him recently. But well, wealthy people are different. They could fly right now wherever they wanted unlike those who work harder than those who were naturally born with a golden spoon in their mouths. I wonder what I will do once I have a really big cash in my hands. I smiled at my thoughts, dismissing them away and focusing on my work again. My work was peaceful although sometimes, customers were rude. That was occasionally so I hope I won't encounter them today to ruin my mood. Nevertheless, I hope Wilson and Elena are having the best times of their life right now since they’re newly married. I saw Linda come inside with a grin on her face. Truly a lady with both virtue and cuteness. “Linda, you’ve come.” I greeted her to which she waved her hand, quickly waving at me as a greeting. “Manager. You arrived earlier than me today. Did something good happen?” I beamed at her, shrugged m
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 15: Intentions The weather was nice and amazing. Like normal, Cardyn went to work with a grin on her face. Although she had missed Dalvin’s comforting warmth, she still slept just fine. On the contrary, Dalvin linked his hands, looking at Sofia in bewilderment. With a cold tilt of his head, he coldly asked her, “What is your purpose of coming in here?” She smiled, “I want to take you out to a meal.” She leaned her head forward, hopeful that Dalvin would take her bait. Unfortunately, Dalvin rose from his seat and showed his indifference. Sofia was upset about this but didn’t back down. “Dalvin, I merely just declined your proposal because I wasn’t ready yet. Look, now I returned to you.” “I didn’t want you to come back, as I have said.” Sofia snickered. “I called your mother who seemed dearly missing me for the past years I was gone. You got married while I was finding my intention and what I want in this life. Didn’t you get it?” Dalvin raised
Chapter 14Cardyn’s POVMy Perfect Abrupt MarriageSpeechless and caught-off guard, I stared at him with my questioning face. Unconsciously, my hands lowered on their own. Despite the fact that he was wearing a hat so as to not be noticeable by others, because of his tall height, great aura and presence, people around us can’t help but take a look at the man in front of me.Most of all, I was the one most surprised among anyone. How did he know I was here? No, first, why is he here?Without letting me ask him, he held my wrist, and then pulled me inside the car. Strangely, he was the one driving the car which only made me more confused. Was he in a hurry that he didn’t get to put on his coat and tie his necktie? I looked around at the slight mess to the back seat of the car, glancing at him before pursing my lips and putting my eyes outside as the rain wetted and made the sun shy to peek from the clouds. I closed my eyes, the feel of the rain dripping on my face was still vivid even
Chapter 13Cardyn’s POVLast night was a total mess. I fought with Daniel because of my stirred emotions. I closed my eyes and cooked my breakfast. If you are asking me where I was staying, well, at my work. Since I am the manager, I have the keys inside and fortunately, there are actually beds and three rooms inside where staff could sleep in their breaks. I used one of them to sleep last night. But I couldn’t sleep well because I was thinking about Daniel. Without considering his feelings, I hurt him. I mumbled, “I mean, is there even anything to consider when we’re not even an in-love couple? And do you know how foolish it sounds? A wealthy man like him found me amusing so he married me.” I scoffed, sipped the coffee I made earlier and flipped the egg and bacon alternately. I know I can cook a better meal for me but hell, this is my working site. I can’t simply use it JJust because I had nowhere to go last night, I had to be innovative. After finishing my breakfast, I opened the
Chapter 12Cardyn’s POV“Cardyn, are you going to see the exhibition at the Manzo Company? The news said it will go public so you don’t need an invitation.”Manzo? Isn’t that the Company of my husband? I awkwardly shook my head. I would rather not make a presence in such a big event. “I don’t want to go, my period has just begun.” I sadly looked at Linda who pouted. “Don’t worry, it will happen three days from now on. Maybe you have time on Friday.” I smiled, “I am fine. There will be other events in the future, I want to rest more than go to exhibitions. Not my forte.”“All right. I have to go out, the customers are flooding.”I nodded my head, “Sure, sure. I have to finish checking the ledger.” After exchanging smiles with each other, she left so I sighed and focused on what I was doing. Daniel never invited me to the exhibition and besides, I knew that he wouldn’t welcome me. I can’t wait to divorce him after six months, we’re really just pretending just because of duties. No,
My Perfect Abrupt MarriageChapter 11Daniel's POV"Uhm, Sir, your mother is making a scene downstairs. She said you don't let her inside your office so what she's doing is far better than nothing." I closed my eyes and sighed. I knew that she wouldn't be able to accept that I got married so soon with a different woman so readily. I have expected this much but it still doesn't feel good. I reclined deep on my chair, crossed my arms. The next second, I took off my coat and went outside with a click of my tongue. “Let’s go, I have to see the directors.” “But, Sir, your mother–” “Let her wait,” I commanded with a frown on my face. My secretary still wanted to insist but I looked away as a sign that I didn’t want to talk about it any longer. She had been bothering me after being aware of my sudden marriage. Even my grandparents are wanting to know what had happened to me that I went into such a thing without thinking too much. I sneered. Didn’t they hurry me to give them grandchildre
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 10 Although it was not my intention to be of burden of him, he still carried me all the way to the dining room, gaining the maids giggly attitude and shyly gazing at us but cannot make a comment on it. He placed me on the chair, while I feel embarrassed. He just carried me but why do I feel so affected? “See how much you troubled me.” he stated. I sighed, “I didn’t ask you to carry me all the way here. Did I?” Daniel shook his head, motioning the head maid to serve our meals. This would be our first dinner together. Well, I don’t know any more since I feel the hungriness taking over my sanity. After the serving, we dug onto our meals. I even almost coughed up the food I took since I continuously chew down on the food had it been not for Daniel for handing me water. I caught my breath, patting my chest, “Thank you.” He shook his head, “I think what you need is a caretaker.” “No need. I was just hungry.” He laughed, “No one will take your food
My Perfect Abrupt Marriage Chapter 9 Cardyn’s Awkwardly, I smiled at her, merely giving a nod of my head. Adapting wouldn’t come overnight or would I be able to get accustomed to this new surrounding so easily. “A-all right,” I glanced at the other maids who bowed at me, “I, I should go and rest for a while.” She grinned at me, “Now I know why Master insisted that we take the most care of you. I finally understand why he did so.” Confused more, I furrowed my brows, “Dan... Daniel ordered so?” She nodded her head vigorously, “Yes, yes. Then I won’t bother you anymore, Madame. I still have a lot of matters to attend to.” Just like that, she again bowed at me and left her way. I heaved a deep sigh, glancing at her each of the stairs I took. Daniel told her to take care of me. What does that mean? Is it some sort of drama-romance where I should be touched and have my heart fluttering over that? Well, maybe it was the unexpected gesture that was thrown at me. Daniel is such an outs
