It was like a dream come true when the CEO of Sullivan Enterprises asked my hand in marriage. I was the trophy wife, the woman of his dreams: so high on a pedestal until it all came crashing down. He didn't marry me for love, oh no: he married me for revenge. For everything that my father had done, and I was pulled into the worst hell imaginable. Days, months of torture and torment. They say there's fire in love. But could there be love in a fire?

The alarm rang.
A new day.Huh, I have to get up again.I got up and got ready. Took a bath, brushed my teeth, and did my daily chorus. Made breakfast for dad and brother and then packed my things.
Another college day.
I said my goodbyes to my family and left the house. I am on my way to college by bus.
My life has been really difficult since the day mom left us.
Every day is like a burden.Even if everything is perfect, dad is not behaving normally.He is hiding something from me.
And I know that.But I don’t know why he is even hiding anything? I mean even if he has a new girlfriend, it’s not like I am gonna scare her away!
I understand it. It’s been two years after all, if he wants someone, then it’s fine!But he goes out at night and comes home late in the morning.
But I am not really bothered about it. I just have to complete my studies and then I would become a scientist. That’s all I care about. Only one year more. Then I would go somewhere far and live somewhere different.
My brother, Christopher, or Chris, is already a business man for all I care. He is all full-on ready to take over our dad’s business and I can choose my path.
That’s one of the few good things left in this life.
I reached the college. It is just the same as yesterday, but yeah, it is becoming more and more boring every day.
Even if I was the one who chose to become a scientist, this college is kind of boring and trust me, even the toppers hate this.
Anyways, I walked inside the college and sat on my seat, when the teacher entered the room.
“So, today is a special day!” She exclaimed.
What special day?
Is today Valentine’s day?“Today, the CEO of Sullivan Enterprises is going to pay us a visit!” she announced and the smile was evident on her face.
But why?
This is a science college. Why is he coming here? He should go to business colleges, I guess.“I want all of you to behave in front of him. Do not create any scene. And specially girls, don’t ruin your image” she said with a wink.
Huh, I sure know the girls of this college.
That CEO is gonna suffer coming here.Just wait and see the way they are going to throw themselves on him.I waited patiently for the time to flow and for the most anticipated guest to come.
On the exact time that he was expected, the teacher called us in the hall and told us he had arrived. We made our way to the hall and there he stood.
Handsome as hell.
he is just so... oh god. He’s a masterpiece.His perfect face and his beautiful attire.Perfect billionaire.I stood there in awe as I waited for him to speak something. He is so beautiful in person. I have always seen him on the TV. But he is different in person.
Everything about him screams perfection.
His aura is kind of dominant.“Hey, college Tre!” he exclaimed. “you must be wondering why am I here. Actually, I am here to select a student with the most potential and knowledge to work for my company” he said.
Good thing that I am kind of good in studies. Maybe I get selected! If I get it, it would be so good! I would get to work with a billionaire!
“Checking all the files and the records, and keeping in consideration the personal opinions of the teachers, I have selected five students” he said. “Cassie, Erica, Henry, Sam and Kaitlyn”
Wohooooo Kaitlyn is selected!!
And you are right, my name is Kaitlyn.“I want all of the five students I named, here”
I went there with nervousness plastered on my face. I faked a smile.
He looked at every student. Starting from Cassie, he looked at Erica, Henry, Sam and finally me. I’m not lying, but he looked at me for a longer time and then his face turned into a faint smirk.
“Your full name?” he asked me.
My heart beat raised to the top, and it was complemented by all the people who were staring at us with curious faces.
Why of all people, did he ask that to me?
“I-I am Kaitlyn Adams” I said.
He nodded like he understood something. “I’m so sorry for your mom and if I am not wrong, then your brother is in business?” he asked.
I was shocked.
Why does the CEO of such a big company know my family?“Y-yes,” I said.
“And his name is Christopher Adams,” he said. I nodded and replied, “Yes”
He smiled.
“So, now you all are requested to call your families and ask them if they are ready to send you to my office for some tests today, and if they are ready to let you work in my company in case you get selected” he said. We all nodded happily.
Well, actually, they all nodded happily.
Who am I gonna call?Anyways, I took my phone and called my brother. I can’t tell my dad. I don’t care about telling him anyways.
“Hey Kate. Is everything ok?” Chris asked as he picked up the call.
“Yeah Chris. I just... I just have to go to Sullivan Enterprises today, bec-”
“WHAT?”
“Y-yeah actually, the CEO came here himself to select some students for research in his company probably, so I am selected along with four others”
“Oh”
“So, I just wanted to inform you that I am going to his company”
“Is it safe?”
“Yeah it looks like, you know he’s a famous businessman” I said.
He has a good knowledge of every businessmen and he sure knows Mr. Sullivan.
“Have you told dad?”
“No. it’s your call,” I said.
“I am not going to tell him. He is not going to allow you”
“Thank you, Chris”
“I don’t do anything for you. You know that, right?” he asked.
“Yeah” I replied.
“Okay bye”
“Hey... please wish me good luck. There’s no one to wish me...” I said.
“You know I don’t believe in these good lucks and all, so hang up!” he said.
“Okay...” I said and as I was about to cut the call, he spoke.
“Wait!” he said.
“Yea?”
“Good luck” I smiled at him.
“Thank you, bye!”“bye”
I know my brother. He acts cold with me every day. But the main thing is that he ACTS. I know deep inside, he cares. He is like this. I also show that I don’t care about him, but I do too. And I am so happy that I am gonna get a chance to at least show my talent and work at such a big company. It is a dream job. I would be so happy if I get selected. But something is suspicious.
How did he know my brother?
How did he know my mother?How did he know me?
And most of all, why did he smirk at me?
It’s not like he has any intentions, because I am not at all the ‘hot girl’ types. I am just a simple COOL girl. But still. I felt something terribly different.
He knew me. That’s why he asked my full name.But I have never met him.
And my brother would have told me if there was something.Anyways, I have to get this.
This can build the future I always wanted.This is my chance.And I have to win this.Kaitlyn I didn’t really know what I should do or not. I wanted to ask him about the marriage but instead this all happened… I decided to wait till he comes back home. --- (A few hours later) --- I was sitting on the couch and the doorbell rang. I took a deep breath and went to open the door. As I opened, I saw Daniel standing with a sweet smile. “Hey Kate!” He tried to hug me, but I needed to clear the doubt first, so I moved back and hesitated. He looked at me with suspicion and frowned. “Are you mad at me?” he asked, frowning more. I closed the door and sighed. “yes”“Why?” “What were you doing when I called you?” I asked straight away. He looked at me and sighed. “I was just--” “Were you taking your revenge?” His expressions turned to those of confusion, but then a small smile crossed his lips. “I see, that’s why you’re mad at me”“Yes,” I replied. He came to me and I just looked at him. He sighed, the smile still evident. “I was just doing some workout. No need to
DanielI took him inside and saw her sitting on the couch. Her eyes widened as she saw him and immediately got up.“I hoped--”“Why is he here, Daniel?” She looked scared. “I don’t wanna face him”“You need to punish him for what he did to your mom!” I reminded her. “Did you forget? You have to take your revenge. Your mom… deserves it”She sighed and looked down. “But… he… he is still my father…”----KaitlynHe sighed. “Let go of relationships that hurt you”“Really?” I raised an eyebrow and he sighed in despair. “I-I mean always hurt you”I sighed. “But… okay… how do I take my revenge?”“That’s on you. Do whatever you want to, with him”I nodded. Fine. I will take revenge. He killed my
KaitlynI was glad that Daniel opened up to me. I asked him how he was gonna take his revenge, or rather, “our” revenge.“He is in the Maldives. I will do something”“Okay…” I sighed and that’s how he didn’t tell me anything.Anyway, it didn’t bother me because I knew he would do the best he could.I was with him and Chris has actually apologised many times, asking me to be the same as before. And actually, I agreed.There is no point in being angry with someone whose intentions weren’t wrong.It is not like I suddenly forgot and forgave. But now I will definitely try to mend us for the better. Maybe we could start all over because everything seems to be nice now.---Avril“What?” I was shocked, yet happiness filled in me.“Yes, and… this can also be used as an apology gift?”
Kaitlyn“oh wow” I looked down, shyly.“After all I love you and you love me too” he grabbed my wrist. “Truly”I looked at him and smiled. “Yes”“And there’s a lot we have to talk about. Really a lot”“We will. Let’s just get this Kurt out of our lives”“We will” he smiled and I nodded.We were just waiting for Kurt to spread the fake news now. I really feel enraged that he was faking, but it doesn’t hurt: maybe I am glad that I didn’t have to hurt a good soul because Daniel is my true love.I sighed. “Till he does the thing, what should we do?” I asked him.“I know that I shouldn’t be desperate, but I really wanna marry you right now”“We are married anyway” I smiled. “It was also a love marriage”His face tensed and he si
AvrilI was with Eric. He had been really bad since that shit happened with Daniel.“Does that mean we have to break up?” I asked him, looking down. He was blaming Kaitlyn for everything, and because I was her sister, it seemed as if my happiness would end too.“I don’t know”“Then who will?” I looked at him and scoffed. “if you really can break up because of some reason that has nothing to do with me, then go on”He sighed. “I don’t think we need a break up. I think I just need a break”“And I am ready. but you tried to break up because of Kaitlyn. why?”“I am sorry, I was fucked up”I sighed. “It is okay. Have your time”He nodded and went to his room.I am not so sure about us anymore actually, but I think we can work out if we really want it.-----Kaitlyn
KaitlynI was so scared that I could have yelled, but I somehow managed to calm myself. I was still facing my bed while the noise had come from behind me.Was it some thief? Or maybe someone who came to kill me!?“Who--Who are you?”I heard his footsteps and the person hugged me from behind. I was retaliating but stopped. His familiar scent intoxicated my senses and I closed my eyes.“Daniel…” I whispered.He didn’t say anything, but I was sure I wasn’t wrong. It was definitely him. “Why are you here?” I whispered.He turned me around and I looked at him and into his eyes. His eyes were lacking the happiness and warmth they were starting to gather lately.“I need you,” he whispered. “Please”My heart was literally aching. “I am here…”“You moved on, Kate” he looked to the
KaitlynI was still scared of that voice. Even if it has been two hours since the call, I still am so afraid and I curse myself for not seeing who called me. If I would have seen the number, I could have reported it to the Police.But the number vanished too.Now, I was just left with nothing but fear in myself.I was looking at the watch and was preparing my resume on my laptop. I still had no idea what would happen but I need this job deliberately.It was finally 4 PM and I was all ready to be picked up by him. I went down and waited for him in the reception.I finally saw him and he smiled warmly at me. “Hey Kaitlyn”“Hello Kurt” I smiled.“Let’s go”I nodded and he took my hand and we sat down in his car. I sat down comfortably and he looked at me and smiled. “I am so lucky to do this with you”“Same here” I smiled bac
DanielI saw the news. I was glad that Chris came to save my company, but I need someone. Someone to love me. I know I have been cruel to her but now I have changed and she should have given me a chance.But she didn’t. She left me.I got up and called Chris.“Hey” I said to him.“Hello Daniel”“Where did she go?” I asked him. I haven’t even asked her where she went.“Probably Paris”“okay, thank you”“What are you gonna do?” he asked me.“Go there” I ended the call.I just wanna see you, Kate. I know you are still mine.I packed up my things. The doctor had arrived but I dismissed him. I want to be alone. And if someone is gonna be there, it will be Kaitlyn.Or someone who loves me.I took my luggage and went to my car. I booked my private plane and then drove there.
KaitlynI was at the mall with Kurt. His smile is really captivating, no matter what anyone says. I mean, if anyone says anything against it.I entered the mall and he held my hand like he has always, since we met.As the music was playing we were smiling and going around. He chose a dress for me. “It looks beautiful” I commented. “But I am not buying”“Oh then” he turned to me and looked at me more carefully. “Why are we here?” he said so with a playful smile.I looked down. How do I tell him that I wanted to spend time with him? I want to know about him more. That’s what I want!“Uh well…” He took a step closer while I stilled in my position. I don’t know, but he still seems familiar even when I don’t know him.“Kaitlyn” he whispered. “Do you like me?”I just looked down and my heart was racing.
