I am thankful for your words, you motivate me. I will do better. Thank you.
~Adams Pov~ “Do you also think I am here for the money?!” Merina asked coldly. My eyes trembled in shock as I looked at the suddenly cold woman in front of me. I felt so much confusion as I looked at her angry face. “What do you mean by that, Merina?!” I asked after calming down but my eyes pierced at her as I waited for an answer. She looked at me for a period then bit her lips and bent her head, I looked at her head which was lowered and my heart couldn’t help but throb, “Do you think of me like that?” I asked gently, then closed my eyes. I clenched my fist and my eyes narrowed into slits as I thought about why she would suddenly think like that, then I remembered my mother might have said something which made Merina this insecure and angry. I I pressed my lips tiredly and wished I could fly to the family house to deal with my mum. I had managed to win Merina over and make her trust me but in just a day, my mum had destroyed it. Still, I had thought Merina trusted me just
~Merina Pov~ Adams didn't wait till we reached his room before he started kissing me in the elevator. I could feel his desperation. I smiled secretly feeling his love and lust for me and I knew I had successfully shifted his attention. I knew I had hurt him when I saw his reaction after I had said those words. I hadn't meant it but seeing the document of the house with my name on it just triggered my feelings and made me so angry. I felt humiliated for a minute but when he questioned me and said those words, I knew I had wronged him as Adams had been nothing but honest and plain with me right from the start. I had felt sad and anxious seeing him ignore him even when I called him with my soft voice, and in desperation I climbed on top of his lap and kissed him but I didn't know it was going to go this far, and here we are. When he apologized to me saying he had lost control, I felt something break inside me and suddenly I wanted to give myself totally to him. I didn't know what I
~Merina Pov~ I felt something tickling my face which stirred me awake. My eyes were blurry as I looked around in a daze, I felt lost and my mind was blank until I heard his voice— “Good morning, Rina..” His hoarse gentle voice sounded which snapped me out of my daze and my blurry eyes cleared immediately. I looked at his dark deep eyes that seemed to contain only me and remembered what had happened yesterday and how Adams had kept on going without giving me enough time to rest, my face became so red as I covered my face with the blanket. I heard his amused laughter and I felt more embarrassed. I bite my lips and my eyes turn red with embarrassment. “I want to shut him up! How dare he laugh at me?!” I thought and hearing his laughter which won't be stopped, I turned around unexpectedly and covered his mouth with my palm. We looked at each other dazingly then I felt a wet sensation in my palm which made me remove my palm immediately and when I looked at my palm, I realized Adams h
~Adams Pov~ “NO!” What did she mean by she wouldn't be staying with me after getting married?! Then how should I continue to live after eating meat?! That's impossible, I wouldn't allow that. I glared at her daring her to repeat herself, but it seemed she had made up her mind as she only shook her head and looked at me like I was throwing a tantrum which made me speechless. “Adams, I wouldn't go back to that house after what had happened.” She said and looked at me with eyes filled with determination. “What if I buy a house and design it the way you want? We will make that our matrimonial home?” I asked gently hoping she would agree to my suggestion. Merina looked at me for a while and suddenly placed her legs on the floor and attempted to stand up but she wobbled and almost fell I was fast enough to catch her and stabilize her. She inhaled deeply and closed her eyes, and then a tear dropped from her eyes which baffled me. “Adams…You beast!” She spat out angrily and glared at
~Merina Pov~ My heart trembled at his question. I clenched the pen tightly and almost broke it but it left a mark on the paper. I don't know what is going on with me but I suddenly feel scared. Doubt filled my heart and I suddenly felt scared of getting tied to someone. “Do I know what the future holds? What if he betrays me like how my father did to my mother? What if I end up like my mother?” I gritted my teeth as I knew my thoughts were getting vicious but I still couldn't stop myself from thinking about it. I swallowed hard and pressed the pen on the paper but then I slammed it down and stood up then ran out without looking at others. I couldn't hear a thing, it was like my mind was in closure and my head was banging me. My mind was filled with the image of my mum dying. Even if I was young, I could still remember it vividly. The way her hand turned cold and how she died with her eyes opened and I could still see my image in her eyes. The picture of a family of three appea
~Adams Pov~ I pulled Merina to myself immediately after we got outside. My hands were trembling as I held her closer and placed her head on my chest, my ears were red and I could feel my heart throbbing though I wondered if she could hear it. “Finally!” I breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her tightly. Merina pushed me away gently and then looked at the certificate she was holding. She looked stunned and in disbelief, then she slowly looked at me and tilted her head in confusion, “Married? I’m married?” She asked with her eyes filled with innocence making me want to dote more on her. I chuckled then leaned in to kiss her forehead. She looked at me with a bright eye and looked at me with nervousness as if asking for answers. She looked at me and pouted her lips and shook my arms, “Huh?!” I couldn’t help but bite her puffy cheeks then nodded with a smile, “Hello, Mrs. Nart!” I greeted her with a proud smile and then patted her hair dotingly. Merina looked at me stunned then sh
~Adams Pov~ “Adams! What are you doing?!” I looked at her coldly with my fists clenched tightly. I walked closer to her and she moved back with a scared face. Her face was so pale and I knew I had scared her so much but if I kept enduring all this, then Merina would suffer as I knew I couldn't always be with her every hour. “Adams! Do you want to hit me?! Even if I am not the one who gave birth to you I have always taken care of you since you were a baby!” Mum cried out as she bit her lips and looked at me. I was heartless. “What is wrong with arranging your marriage?! Why can't you give me that honor? You treat me like this because of a woman? I understand…”She said, then turned to look at my father with a tearful face. “Is this how you and your son want to pay me back? I have been devoted to this family for decades and all I got is insults and pains from the son I had raised.” She covered her mouth and cried harder making me speechless, “If only I had refused to take care
~Micca Pov~ I picked up the phone immediately upon seeing the caller. How much I had been expecting her calls but this old woman hadn't called me and I didn't want to seem desperate which might annoy her. “Hello, Aunty! How have you been?” I asked in a soft and obedient tone. “How have I been? I have been terrible! How could you be so relaxed when I am suffering here?! Come out and meet me in the coffee shop nearest to the spa we went to last time, be there in 20 minutes!” She ordered in an arrogant tone that set me off. I looked at the phone after the call got hung up, “What the hell is wrong with her?! And what's with her tone?” I thought to myself but then remembering her words, I couldn't help but think deeply. The only reason that can get her all vexed is Merina’s matter. Wait! Has she found a way out? Or she didn't succeed with the hints I had given her? Darn it! I cussed and paced around in my room. If it's that reason then she might be calling me to settle the score. “
~Merina Pov~ Sitting on the chair in the office of Secretary Sonia, the secretary of the Music Association, my eyes were fixed, to be precise, on the simple ring on my finger. I smiled gently as I and Adams had exchanged rings days ago with unsaid promises.I still can't believe I am married and everything seems like a movie but I know it is real, everything is real! I chuckled again and brought my hand to my lips then dropped a kiss on my fingers.“Sorry for keeping you waiting, Miss Merina!” The voice startled me, but after seeing the person I calmed down immediately and let out a smile.“You can call me, Merina,” I said and shook hands with her before sitting down. Miss Sonia smiled gently and then nodded before giving me an ID Card and a document, “Please read through this and if you are satisfied, then we can go ahead with the signing. Everyone who joins the association has to go through this. And that ID card is your pass to the association and it shows your qualifications.”
