"What is your name by the way?" West suddenly asked as she turn to face the man who was standing tall close to her.
His eyes swept towards her,sucking her whole and she felt lost for a while but he replied nevertheless as he turn to face the other side "Lincoln Harvey" West nodded a bit,not recognizing anyone with the name but a smile formed on Lincoln's lip as he gazed deeply at the lady. After a brief moment of silence,West turn to him "I'll give you a call later,for now,I have something to take care of, dear husband" She stretched the last line with a chuckle and Lincoln nodded at her. Without saying another word,she walked out of the bureau as she headed straight to her home where she had grown all along,it was time to get a clearance from her father and shove some truths to their faces. With a stiff back,West boarded a cab back home,her heart drumming in her rib cage,not knowing if she was strong enough to face her lying husband and her industrious sister who just got engaged by her husband in front of the aisle. She wasn't sure if she was bold enough to face her dad who she had come to love and has lived her life all to impress him and make him happy with her. She didn't know who her mom was,all she knew was that she grew up with her father and her step mom. She thought all along her father loved her but just had reservations towards her,she should have known better. Meanwhile,Lincoln's eyes dimmed as he turn to face his secretary,Davis who swallowed hard when he swept those cold eyes at him. "Run a thorough investigation of that lady who just became my wife,I want to know everything about her,where she lives! Where she works! Down to how many times she combs her hair in a day!" In as much as he was in a dire need to salvage his name and resume work as CEO,he couldn't afford to get a spy to his side,West's appearance was just too coincidental considering the fact that she came herself,throwing herself directly at him. She wasn't conservative at all,but he couldn't deny that he could see the air of revenge brewing in her eyes,as if she needed the vengeance to satisfy her soul. But he had to confirm if the story behind it was true,was she really wedded and divorced on the spot?? She was really disowned and was stranded like she had claimed?? "I need Answers Davis,get to it real soon" With that,his towering figure walked towards the new incoming car,since the previous car he had came with was broken by that little wife of his,he had to call for his driver to get a new car for him. "Head straight to the headquarters" Lincoln's raspy tone came out,as he sat comfortably in the back seat. His mind wandering off to the lady with a wedding dress on,she perked his curiosity,he has never seen a lady with such deadly eyes that screamed of wanting revenge on people who preyed on her. ⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎⚛︎ "And what are you doing here,loser?? You are no longer a part of this family so leave" Erica bursted out immediately West stepped into the living room. The words though sharp,flew past West's ears as her dark eyes wandered around the room,what was she expecting?? A gloomy atmosphere,where they'll all be regretting hurting her and sucking for disowning her?? Well,much to her disappointment,the living room was too lively for a normal day,they were literally celebrating. She didn't know if they were celebrating the engagement between Erica and Shawn or they were rejoicing over her dismissal. "West what are you doing here??" Shawn came forward while his other family wrapped their arms around their chest in awe. "Shawn..." West whimpered as her eyes fell on him,just two days before their wedding,he had promised to cherish her. "Do not ever call my name,for your information,I won't give you any Face cause you're not a member of this family so I can't bestow you the pleasure of being my in-law" Mr East,West's father clapped his hands and West's eyes shrieked backwards,wondering what next was going to happen. Surprised but yet-still not surprised,her eyes fell on the small suitcase that fell close to her toes, thrown by a maid. Blinking back her tears,West shook her head to clear her thoughts "Well,I just came to inform y'all...though you're not my family anymore,I just want to use this medium to say that I still got married today,Shawn didn't only get engaged and freed from our bondage called relationship,I got married too" Just then,Cicil burst out laughing and the others soon joined as they laugh in mockery. West turn to look at her,she was laughing so hard that she had to lean on mr East,since she was West's step mother. After laughing a bit more,She hissed "I wonder the pauper who agreed to get married to someone as low as you are" "Yes,and she's got terrible characters that doesn't fit well for my grandson"Shawn's grandmother spoke up and her father shook his head. West rolled her eyes "Well,tell that to your dear Erica who is willing to take up a divorcee" "That's enough now West, we do not need you now in this house,you are disowned by this family, you no longer belong to us" "I never planned on staying here either,my new husband is more formidable than you can think of,he is rich" West snorted before she grabbed her suitcase on the floor,with her broke heart in her suitcase,she realized how unremorseful they all were towards her. Maybe a tiny part of her heart had wished they would reconsider-that part wanted them to be remorseful and take her back,but now—this was far from what she yearned for. They enjoyed every moment of her suffering but with this wedding with Lincoln Harvey,West balled her fist as she prepared her mind to get back at these irresponsible people who only knew how to be cruel. Leaving the home she had always run up to when she was down,West exited the front door with her heart in hand. Never was she going to leave like this but her thoughts were cut short when her phone vibrated and she saw that it was a text from her whirlwind husband. Husband>{ I bet they disregarded you,right?} West, whose face was deadly pale texted back "Yes" A glint pass his eyes as he texted back: Husband>{I am just outside your house Wifey,quickly come to daddy..}West hissed,totally annoyed as she grumbled out of the house,she didn’t want to speak with anybody now.It was about 8Pm already as she walked along the tiled road with her sneakers that has worn out.She only had few clothes so it must be really easy for the maids to pack her stuffs in just two small bags.Even if she was the daughter of the executive officer of east groups,she doesn't look like the daughter of a rich man.When Erica was given allowances,she had to work in LH Culinary To make a living for herself and buy herself all necessities for her everyday life.Shawn just only bought her this white sneakers she was currently wearing on her birthday,that was the only gift she got from him.She still felt weak from all the things that took place,in just one day,her world crumpled,she lost the man she had loved for two years and she was disowned by her father.She was hurt both emotionally and psychologically.She really loved Shawn and somewhere in her heart still calls for him n
Lincoln was just staring ahead,acting as if he was oblivious of the girl who was glaring at him."Get off my thighs!" Came a cold sentence from Lincoln and West immediately straightened her back and said "What was that tout you just pulled??" This time,Lincoln turn to look at her and asked instead "What are you doing out here by this time?? I thought I texted you to come meet me?? You ran off”West suddenly felt embarrassed as she turn to the side to look at her bags in the floor from where she was standing previously."Kinda.." West muttered and Lincoln smirked and then,silence reigned for a while."Okay then,I have to get going!" West said and turn to walk away when a voice called from the back "And where do you have in mind??"West turn to look at him with raised brows and Lincoln scoffed coldly " I don't care about you one bit so don't get funny ideas" West shook her head "and I wasn't thinking about that! It's just that....on a closer look and the darkness resting on your face,
"Just sign the papers West and let's get this done and over with" Emotionless and cruel, Shawn's words rolled out of his tongue as he stared at West.West staggered a bit backward as she stared incredulously at the man she loved, a man who promised her heaven on earth...What changed??Her thoughts were blank as her eyes fell on the paper on the table, the words inscribed on it glared hard at her as her blurry eyes saw the bold letters on the top of the paper.Divorce!"Shawn..." West's voice betrayed her as it trailed off, her eyes met his cold ones, no ounce of remorse on his face as he stared at her like he was staring at a bag filled with trash.West shook her head as the realization dawned on her "Shawn it's been barely two hours since we got married in front of our respective families..." Her tears choked her up as her eyes wandered off to the people behind Shawn.Shawn snorted before he fixed his tie, this only proved that they were still in the wedding venue, West held her gow
A Cold snort followed her statement, Her stepmother's voice soon came "You have nothing to do since you have already lost everything! Just accept your fate West, you are nothing without the East family behind you"West snapped "And when have the east family been behind me?? Father didn't allow me to work in the family's company, I was never recognized as a daughter of this family and now, you all ruined my little happiness""How shameless, Shawn belongs to my daughter, that is someone else's man you're talking about and not yours! how ridiculous can you get West?? " West blinked back her tears, she couldn't refute that when her father had set her and Shawn up for a date the first time, she was happy she finally got to be with a rich and handsome family heir, it was love at first sight for her because she always wanted to be an obedient daughter and she told herself to love everything her father loves only to make him impressed with her and maybe consider her and recognize her as his
"It's Tomorrow Lincoln, do you have a bride yet?" Hearing those words from the other side of the phone, Lincoln Harvey scowled at his father who acted as if he cared."Very soon" his monotone voice came out, his icy cold eyes looked around as he turned to face the bureau, he'll just do this very quick and get out of here.His father, Conan gushed out "Very Good then, just know what's at stake if you fail" with that, the call ended and Lincoln scoffed, feeling very ridiculous that he later found himself in such a pathetic situation, his mood dampened.Lincoln Harvey turned towards the other three men who were present.Two were a bit far off as they were his bodyguards, their eyes scanning everywhere.The other man close to the car had his head down as he gripped his phone tightly, afraid of meeting the cold eyes of the man approaching."She backed out??" The already angry Lincoln asked a bit as he walked towards the car and stood there with both hands inside his pocket.The man who se
Walking out of the bureau, West's heavy heart tightened as her eyes wandered around, she could feel the stares from people, who wouldn't stop to look at a disheveled bride.It was as if she went to steal the wedding dress, her makeup makes her look like a thief that was beaten.Her eyes wandered around for a while before they landed on the car, a crazy smile formed on her lips as she immediately matched towards it, her expression was unreadable.She saw some men who looked like bodyguards near the car, but she didn't care as she walked towards the side of the road, her eyes brightened when She saw the concrete stone close by.Without any delay or hesitation, she took the guards off guard when she grabbed the stone and threw it directly at the car.The alarm went off and the men immediately became alerted while West stood at the side, her eyes followed the movement of the men who gasped in shock when they saw how the back glass was broken to the ground, leaving a huge hole.West smiled
