My fiancé ran away, I married his father *1: marriage without a groom?
**Chapter 1: Wedding Without a Groom?**Hanna stood on the brink of a significant milestone in her life, although it wasn't exactly by her own choice. An arranged and hurried marriage was far from the romantic scenario she had always dreamed of. Yet, given the circumstances, it was the only option she had to get what she needed at that moment.That morning, Hanna had already received everything she needed to prepare for the wedding. A legion of servants was at her disposal, ready to attend to her. She wondered why all this apparatus was necessary for a marriage that, in the end, was only to fulfill a contract."All this expensive clothing and dedication to make me presentable makes me wish my marriage was with someone I love. After all... why put in so much effort and care into planning something that's false?""One day when this agreement ends... if I think of getting married, I'll never be able to overcome the impeccable organization of the Farrugias. I didn't even have to move for
My fiancé ran away, I married his father * 2: Agreement with the groom's father.
**Chapter 2: Agreement with the Groom's Father**Morgan walked to the balcony of his second-floor room, staring disdainfully at the number on his cell phone screen. He hesitated several times before making the call. He could barely stand to hear Hanna's voice, especially since he had witnessed firsthand what that family's illness could do to a person. Even though it wasn't contagious, it was unsettling to observe and deeply regrettable.Hanna answered the phone immediately."Hello, Mr. Farrugia?" she asked anxiously. "I thought you were sending a car to pick me up. There's less than half an hour until the wedding! Why are you taking so long?"Morgan swallowed hard, his gaze lost."Miss... Ortiz," he cleared his throat lightly before continuing. "Unfortunately, we'll have to postpone the wedding."Hanna furrowed her brow, confused, as she stared at herself in the mirror, all dressed up. She could hardly believe it."I disagree! This wedding cannot be postponed! If so, then... how will
My fiancé ran away, I married his father 3: My Disfigured Bride**
**Chapter 3: My Disfigured Bride**Morgan stepped out of his room to find the entire family gathered, anxiously awaiting news. As soon as he mentioned the agreement with Hanna, that he would be the temporary groom until his son returned, a deathly silence fell over the room. His ex-mother-in-law, her face twisted in disapproval, was the first to speak out."You made me a promise, Morgan! You can't just break it now. Don't you dare get involved in a new relationship, especially of this magnitude, after everything you've done in the past!" she grumbled, vehemently reprimanding him. "William Morgan!" she suddenly asserted, gripping his suit collar. "Don't you dare renounce your promise! You deserve nothing but the life you have!" she growled, releasing him forcefully.Morgan stepped back, rubbing his throat."I'm not doing this willingly. Ever since my grandmother made this damned marriage agreement, we've all been trapped in this hell, eagerly waiting for this day. Do you think I'm happ
My fiancé ran away, I married his father 4: finally married.
4: Finally MarriedHanna positioned herself beside Morgan, keeping a distance so that neither of them would touch. The atmosphere was tense and silent among the people; it felt more like a funeral than a wedding. The only thing breaking the silence was the sound of camera flashes taking photos as evidence to fulfill the requirements of the will.As soon as the justice of the peace's standard speech ended, both confirmed their desire to marry and signed the papers, joining them in matrimony."Are you satisfied, Mr. Grumpy?" Hanna asked without looking at him."For now, Mrs. Ortiz. Enjoy the buffet. No one will bother you until it's time to leave.""Sure!" she muttered sharply, turning her back on him and heading to a distant table in the banquet hall.As soon as Morgan moved away from Hanna and towards the other guests, his ex-mother-in-law interrupted his steps."Is she really that ugly?" she asked, now mockingly glancing at Hanna."You're enjoying seeing my life turn into hell, aren'
My fiancé ran away, I married his father 5: Life is unfair to Hanna.
**Chapter 5: Life is Unfair to Hanna**"If that woman comes to this place, she must stay in the annex and not frequent the mansion!" she asserted. Morgan sighed impatiently."Are you afraid that I might give her a chance?" Morgan smiled skeptically."That's not it. After all, it would be hard for you to stay in a woman's life after what you did to my daughter's and grandson's lives. That's why I know if you take the risk, you'll just ruin more lives."Morgan sighed heavily, swallowing his words without arguing with her."Think what you want; if that's the case... you're right then.""Of course I am.""When will you be able to forgive me for that? Are you going to torment me for my entire life? Will you never let this heal?" he asked, distressed."Never! Morgan... neither you nor I will have peace with this!" she confessed, pressing her lips together with bitterness.He stared at her without reaction, adjusting his tie at the same time. Despite being a much larger man than Liara, who w
My fiancé ran away, I married his father *6: Morgan's decision.
Ch.6: Morgan's DecisionMorgan ordered some security guards to gather information in Hanna's neighborhood. The search was futile until they interrogated the last person who had seen Hanna; they learned that she had gone somewhere else and that she was okay.Morgan visited Hanna's house accompanied by his mother. Both stood in front of the ruin, walking among what was left, finding even traces of the wedding dress, documents, and Hanna's belongings."It looks like someone was trying to kill her, don't you think?" Abigail asked."Definitely," he confirmed, apprehensive. "But this is really bad. I have to keep this marriage for at least three years, and we barely managed twenty-four hours.""True, like it or not, it will be better to keep her under our nose; otherwise, our family will sink with her.""But we still have to find out where she is.""Couldn't you call her?""I did, the lawyer did too, but she doesn't answer," he commented, restless. "There's nothing here, let's go home now."
My fiancé ran away, I married his father 7: security guards go to get Hanna*
**Ch.7: The Security Guards Fetch Hanna**At noon, after her shift, Hanna sat in the cafeteria, opening the email Morgan had sent her. A skeptical laugh accompanied each line her eyes scanned. The supposed assassination attempt he referred to served merely as a pretext for a list of impositions that ultimately catered to his own interests.Hanna would live in the Farrugia mansion, but not exactly in the same house as the Farrugias. An annex, like a second separate house, was her designated place. Access to this part of the property was through another door, completely independent of the main entrance. To see any family member, Hanna would need to leave the annex, cross the garden to the main entrance, and request permission."What does he want? To keep me a prisoner?" she questioned herself skeptically with every line she read. "Having to keep hiding my face... Well, that won't be bad. This way, I'll avoid him developing any interest in me." She sighed thoughtfully, briefly recalling M
My fiancé ran away, I married his father **8: cunning is my middle name.
**Ch.8: Cunning Is My Middle Name**As soon as the car stopped, she hopped out, heading towards the pharmacy. No one knew what the uniformed girl with a cap covering her face was planning, but her mischievous smile was evident."Bandages, ointments, protectors... Gentian violet and..." She hesitated for a moment before asking for the harmful pink substance.With a grin from ear to ear, the bouncing girl returned to the car. The security guards informed Morgan about the stop at the pharmacy and the route taken, while Hanna discreetly applied a white ointment to her face, creating white spots that covered something.Excited, she sighed upon arriving at the place that reminded her of her unhappy marriage. Suddenly, Murilo came to mind. Deep down, she felt guilty for rejecting him, but she was already married, with no options. Although she considered him a good prospect for the future, it would be unfair to leave him waiting while she fulfilled the agreement.After passing through the larg
