~MERRY POV~ "Let me take you to your groom!" My father looked at me before I exchanged a look with Julian, who was standing in the center of the stage.Yes, I am going to carry out my initial plan to come here—I am going to marry Julian! The light flashed on me, making me the center of attention.I shared a look with my father before taking steps with him to my destination, my groom.I rolled my eyes while checking the decorations of the event.The stage is on the upper level, and the rest of the space is decorated with flowers, light fixtures, chairs, and tables for guests to sit and enjoy.Each table had expensive wine and two sets of glasses.The servants have already started serving food.Indeed, the decorations are stunning. Last but not least, journalists and paparazzi gathered in the hallway, photographing and filming us.The red carpet is on the floor, and a few young ladies are standing in my way.As I moved forward on stage with my father, the young ladies began to thr
~MERRY POV~ "Yes, 30% of your father's stock has been transferred to you!" My grandfather looked at me and revealed the information. "I was not expecting him to give her shares as soon as she got married!" I could hear Lyra's whispers behind me.Seriously, I did not expect him to hand over the property to me!This is Victoria's share, and I cannot accept it. "We will accept!" Julian replied while keeping his hand on the papers, and I looked at him with wide eyes and a big question mark.What the heck is running in his mind?•••••I brought Julian into the room and locked the door before turning to face him. "Are you in your consciousness?" I screamed and pointed my finger at his brain. "Why did you accept those property shares?" "Only you know the truth: I am not Victoria. Julian, my name is Merry; remember!" I moved my finger. "The shares my father and grandfather gave me as my wedding gift, actually it was not mine!" I let out a frown and grabbed my
~MERRY POV~Soon, we reached Knight Mansion.The guard opened the door for me, and I was holding my long gown in my hand inside the car when a large hand extended towards me, forcing me to look ahead.It is Julian. A warm smile is spreading across his lips, inviting me to give him my hand.I extended my hand, and he grabbed it, locking it in his palm.I walked out with Julian's help and turned back as soon as I felt no weight in my dress.I couldn't help but chuckle as I watched the guards pull my gown from the corners before sharing a glance with Julian. "Should we go, Mrs. Knight?" He rolled his eyes towards the house, and I nodded in response as we walked inside.My eyes widened as I stepped into the house.The house is quite large and absolutely stunning. Every corner of the house shines like a diamond—it is a golden-yellowish colour.Clerestory windows add a vibrant atmosphere to the hallway. There are numerous chandeliers throughout the hallway, in addition to ceiling ligh
~JULIAN POV~I gulped and sucked my lower lip, watching Merry stand in front of me in her bra and underwear.I scanned her half-naked body from head to toe, biting my lower lip as I looked at her sight of beauty, and let out a moan.We are simply looking at each other through the mirror reflection.Her chest was rising and falling down as she was taking rapid breaths, revealing details of her smokey body.I couldn't help but notice the colour of her bra—it was black which was shining against her white fair complexion skinMy favourite colour is black, and watching her wear it made my heart skip a beat.She moved her hands, biting her lips and moving them to cover her body.Oh, sh*t—I turned back, clearing my throat and pinching my ear as I inhaled and exhaled.Julian, get your act together and try not to make her uncomfortable. The sound of a thundering voice shook the sky, causing me to roll my eyes as I felt a cold skin touch my warm one, sending shivers down my spine.Goosebumps s
~MERRY POV~He planted a kiss on my cleavage area as I grabbed his hair with my fist and lifted my body in response to his kiss.WHAT THE HECK!When he planted the first warm kiss on my cleavage-explored skin, I felt electricity rush through my entire body.He raised his head and interlocked my hair behind my ear when I closed my eyes for a moment before grabbing his shirt- collar and looking into his eyes.His eyes and nose had turned red while crying; he was looking pale as well.My heart ached when the tears streamed down his cheeks— he cried like a baby today while revealing his soft side to me for the first time.I am on cloud nine, and I am so grateful that he shared his fear and pain with me on the first night of our marriage.He suffered more than anyone else.But this is wrong; he can't blame himself; he simply wanted to spend time with his parents, as I always assumed.I want to make him happy, no matter what! I brought my head close to him and kissed him on the right eye,
~MERRY POV~The sun's rays reflected through my eyes as I blinked, but I did not open them.I want to sleep—with a thought, I closed my eyes tightly and leaned my head against the pillow. "WAKE UP!" The whispers began to echo in my ears as soon as I ignored them. "Merry!" The warm breath touched my forehead, along with my name, prompting me to open my eyes and check on the person.Julian's handsome face appeared in front of my eyes as soon as I opened them; he was very close to me, looking into my eyes. "GOOD MORNING!" I closed my eyes and smelled his scent on the body. "It is past ten o'clock!" My body shivered as soon as his husky, wave-of-depth voice reached my ears.He stepped back and straightened his body when his chest was wide, exposing his hard muscles.I couldn't stop biting my lips as I stared at him from head to toe.His messy hair and piercing eyes make him extremely attractive.He has a six-pack stomach and is exceptionally well-proportioned.His chest is
The scene is set at night, with low light from the pole lights. A man is driving his car at an incredibly fast pace of 100mph while drinking alcohol. He was not paying attention to the road and risking his life. The music was turned on and the background song was running like the wind.He spotted an empty alcohol bottle with pouty lips as soon as he finished it. "I need one more!" He doesn't even have the slightest concentration on the road. He bent his head down and started searching for the alcohol bottle while operating the steering wheel with his hand without any concentration.There is a petrol pump across the road, but no one is at work in the station. "I got you!" The man screamed in happiness upon finding a beer bottle. "Sh*t!" When he looked out through the window, his eyes widened while watching the petrol pump shop.He lost control of his car and crashed into a gasoline pump, causing a massive explosion. The region is engulfed in flames, and the man is trap
