Chapter 47LAYLA’S POV“That wasn’t part of the plan, what’s wrong with you?” Heidi shouted at me when I told her about my visit to Hayden’s house”“I just couldn’t control myself. I have to tell him how I feel.”“Now where has it led you to? No where” she said shaking her head in disappointment.“He doesn’t love me” I utters.“Thought you knew that” Heidi said and I eyed her.“It just hurts hearing him say that”Heidi came to sit beside me and held my hand.“I know you get whatever you want. I know you to be the type that never gives up. But Hayden is married and is clearly deeply in love with his wife. Okay, let’s look at it this way. Our initial plan of hurting Brittany if you hadn’t gone to Hayden’s house and confessed to him ruining everything, if we have succeeded, that doesn’t still guarantee Hayden loving you” she said and surprisedly, what she said made sense.“And I think what Hayden said about you been obsessed with him is true”I looked at her and she looked away scared of

I fired the rest of the maids”“Wait, what?”“If nana can plot to kill you, we don’t know what the rest have in mind” I explained and she nodded in understanding.“I badly want to see that Nana and give her the beatings of her life” she gritted her teeth.“She is in the custody of the police. Don’t worry. She would get the punishment she deserves”“She better” “When will I be discharged?” She asked.“This evening”“Thank Goodness” she utters and shifted to my side resting on my chest.“Wha

Chapter 50FINAL CHAPTER. BRITTANY’S POV.Hayden and I left for Dubai two days after my birthday. It have been fun of course.Exploring the country, date night, going to the movies and lots of fun things.We are currently on the bed of the hotel we lodged in. We were naked as we just finished a hot section of love making. Hayden and I both agreed not to have a baby yet because of my education.We would start up a family when I graduate. He was fine with it and I was too.My phone started ringing and I told Hayden to pass my phone to me.It was my mom and I picked it and placed it on my ear.“Hello mom”“Brit, i’m sorry for disturbing you...”“You are not. What happened. Your voice doesn’t sound too good”“Your dad...” she mumbled.“Did he hit you again” I frowned.“Yes...”“He should be taken to jail for domestic violence. Mom, I know you are going to say he will change but I’m not even sure he will.”“No...no... I left the house. I’m filling for a divorce. Your dad is influential.
Chapter 1*BRITTANY’S POV*“Dad, can you please repeat that again?” I requested finding it hard to believe what my dad just uttered.“You’re getting married, Brittany” he said and I knew at once he isn’t joking. My dad isn’t the type to pull my legs or play pranks on me.“You...you are joking...” I laughed. It can’t be. “I’m not. You will be getting married to...”I don’t have interest in who I’m getting married to. Hell, I don’t care. I interrupted my dad before he could blurt out the name of whoever it is.“Dad, I’m 18!” I reminded him. “And I am aware of that...” he said. “I’m not even done with high school!” I added.“I know that, Brit!”“Then why do you want me to get married?” I inquired.“Because it will bring us lots of money”“Dad, we are rich! We are rich enough. What the hell do you need money for again!” I groaned.“We would be richer if you marry this man”“But I don’t want to get married at this tender age. Dad, are you okay, or are you drunk?” I asked observing his f
Chapter 2*BRITTANY’S POV*Wyatt Hayden.A 26th year old billionaire. Owns Wyatt company. Net worth 23.2Billion. Relationship status- single. ______I groaned, taking my eyes off my phone. Why the hell am I going through Hayden’s biography.“You need to know about your husband, duh!” My subconscious said.“Eww! He isn’t my husband..he is...” I stopped when I realized I’m talking to myself.I locked my self in the room after the conversation with my mom. I hope she isn’t planning anything funny because I can’t afford to lose Ezra.Hayden is 26, I’m 18. The thought of getting married to him irritates me. Didn’t my parent think about this before accepting his selfish offer? Of course they didn’t. They are blinded by his money.Speaking of Hayden, I haven’t seen him before. Just on the net and news. He’s handsome but...“He isn’t handsome..stop thinking about him, Brit!” I warned myself.My phone rang and On checking the caller’s ID, I found out it’s Ezra. My heart skipped a bit and i cl
Chapter 3*BRITTANY’S POV*LUNCH BREAKTiana, Ezra and i are seated together at the cafeteria. We ate in silence and the silence is quite disturbing.“Okay, something is definitely wrong with you, Brit. You look unusually dull today” Ezra said breaking the silence.“Yeah, I noticed it too. Did something happen?” Tiana added looking at me.I faked laugh. “Nothing is wrong. You guys don’t know what you are talking about” “That’s a fake laughter. I know you, Brit” Tiana rolled her eyes. She knows me so well. “It’s just....” I started while their whole concentration was on me. “I’m just dull because I lost my puppy and I’m really sad about it”“You don’t have a puppy, Brit” Ezra and Tiana said at the same time rolling their eyes.“I don’t? Oh yes! I don’t.” I laughed nervously.“Nothing is wrong okay? I’m fine” I told them and removed my gaze from them focusing on my food but I could still feel them staring at me intently.AFTERNOON. I laid on the bed brining out my iPad. My parents a
Ch 4“With your soon to be husband” She said and my mood changed immediately.A dinner date with Wyatt fucking Hayden. Are you kidding me?“Mom, I’m not getting married to him and I won’t go on any stupid date with him” I said furiously.“You don’t have a choice. Now, go get ready. Nick will drive you to the restaurant when it’s time”“But mom!”“Brit, I understand you don’t want it but trust me when I tell you you won’t regret it. Hayden won’t hurt you”“I didn’t say he will. I’m just not ready for marriage”“That was what I thought my parents told me then I’m getting married at age 16 but as time goes on, I got used to it”“So your marriage to dad was Arranged?” “Yes dear. But we are both happy now” she smiled and I scoffed.“I’m not you, Mom”“Brit, just accept this. Nothing can change. You’re getting married to Hayden no matter what!” She maintained her ground.“Wow” I said as a tear drop from my eyes.I walked away from her and went up to my room to empty my tears.***IN THE N

Chapter 46HAYDEN’S POVTWO DAYS LATER...Brittany haven’t woken up neither was I allowed to see her and it’s really frustrating. The doctor kept on assuring me she would be fine but I’m not seeing any improvement.I just left the hospital after talking to the doctor and he said they are trying their best to treat her. I’m currently at home.My phone started ringing. It was Layla. I contemplated whether to pick it or not and finally did when it was about to finish ringing and muttered a silent “hello”“Hey Hayden, i’m in front of your house. Inform your gatekeeper to let me in”“My house. What are you doing here?”“Aren’t we friends again. Common”I dropped the call and called the gatekeeper to allow her in.She entered shortly and looked around the living room and finally at me who was siting on the couch.“Sorry for the impromptu meeting. Came to check up on you since you haven’t been at work for two days now” she said coming to sit on the couch beside me.“Took some days off”“Whe
Chapter 45LAYLA’S POV “It seems hard! It just seem hard and it’s so annoying” I complained to Heidi.I’m currently in her apartment because I badly need someone to talk to. “Brittany isn’t so easy to handle. She is rude. She talks back and I won’t lie, she scares me” I said frowning.“You are still close with Hayden right? Why don’t you sleep with him and make sure you get pregnant and pin it on him” Heidi suggested.“Easier said than done. This guy doesn’t even look at me. Doesn’t give me the chance to get close to him. It seems that stupid Brittany bewitched him” I gritted my teeth.Heidi looks at me. “Why don’t you just give up. There are other men outside who you can get at a snap of a finger. Why are you still chasing after Hayden if he doesn’t love you”I gave her a look. “Really? I thought you could come up with a solution. Coming here was a bad idea” I uttered and made to carry my bag and leave but Heidi stopped me.“Calm down baby. I didn’t mean that” she said and I roll
Chapter 44BRITTANY’S POV (Some days later...) “But Hayden, it’s too expensive” I said.“It’s not, nothing is too expensive to get for you” he uttered.We are currently at a boutique shopping for clothes. Hayden spotted a gown worth a thousand dollars and insisted on getting it for me. It’s worth the prize but I still find it too expensive.“But...”He cuts me off. “No complains. Go try it on” he said pushing me into the dressing room.“Fine!” I raised my hand up in surrender and entered the dressing room.After 10 minutes, I finally came out. Hayden was seated already, his phone is his hand.“Hayden” I called nervously and he raised his head up to look at me.“Wow” he utters and walked up to me.“Red is definitely your color” he complimented.It’s an armless red gown with diamond stones on it.“It looks good on you. “ he said and I blushed. You are definitely taking it and you are not saying no” He added“I hear you, Mr Wyatt” I snickered, a smile on my face. We ended up with five
Chapter 43BRITTANY’S POV Walking away from the elevator, I couldn’t help but think about Layla words. How come she works here and I never got to know about it. And Hayden didn’t tell me about it.“You never asked” my sub conscious said.I decided not to think about her words. Not like she can do anything.I got to his office and met with the secretary.“Where is your boss?”“In a meeting” She answered without looking at me.I said nothing and walked towards the direction of his office.She stopped me before I could enter.“I’m sorry. Who are you?” She asked.“His wife” I answered.She looked at me as if observing my face.“I’m sorry but you would have to wait here till he is done” she said.“I just told you I’m his wife” I rolled my eyes.“I have to do my job”“Then get ready to find a new one” I said.Her eyes widened in fear. “I’m sorry. So so sorry. You can enter” she rushed her words and I smirked.“Good” I said and entered the office.It was big and of course spacious. I walke
Chapter 42*BRITTANY’S POV* I woke up in Hayden’s arms and a smile appeared on my face. I remembered last night. I can’t believe I actually did give Hayden my virginity.“What’s my beautiful wife thinking about this early morning?” I heard Hayden’s voice and I raised my head up a bit to see him staring at me.“Last night” I replied biting my lower lip. “Can’t stop thinking about it too” he said making my heart skip a bit. I gulped down nothing and made to stand up from the bed but Hayden drags me back making me land on his chest.“Where to?” He asked.“I need to prepare for school and you should prepare for work also” I said.“I don’t get a morning kiss?”“I haven’t brush” I rolled my eyes.“I don’t care”He made to kiss me but I turned my neck and hurriedly rushed to the bathroom laughing.I am still feeling slight pains beneath my legs but it wasn’t as severe as yesterday night. After having my bath, I dressed up and Hayden went to the bathroom for his bath.I was in the bedroom
