All Chapters of Married by Mistake: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Karen's POVThe icy water shook my system as I plunged beneath the surface of the water. My heart raced and my chest tightened as the water brushed against my lips and invaded my nose.I let out a deep breath to blow the water out, my chest was on fire and I needed to breathe. I began to sink lower in the pool, with water rushing into my nose and mouth, the water snugged in around me again as I sank.I couldn't just breathe, my chest still felt like it was in fire. I forced my arms and legs to move and I popped my head up above the water. I took a deep breath as the water closed in around me, the water embracing me and pulling me deeper as I watched a few bubbles of air escape m

Karen's POVWalking into Bill's office, I regretted my actions immediately. I didn't inform Brody before leaving the house in the morning and I didn't want him to get offended."How are you doing, Karen?" Bill asked with a smile.I pulled out a chair and sat down comfortably. "I'm glad you asked because I'm not doing alright."He raised an eyebrow in surprise. "How is that even possible? You live in a castle and you're the princess."I chuckled. "Well, I wish that was it but it's not, it's just like Brody's mom doesn't like me." I said."It's a contract, you should not care if she likes you or not." He replied and I turned my gaze to the bright light outside and shrugged. He was definitely right! It was a fucking contract and I needed to fucking fake everything."Maybe," I said reluctantly. "It looks real though, Brody and I danced yesterday." I told him.He frowned and scratched his eyebrow. "About that, you were not supposed to get intimate with him." 

Karen's POVThe flight to Los Angeles was successful and before I knew it, we were in a taxi. "It's actually my first time in a plane." I told Helen and she suppressed a smile."We should have used a private jet, mom is going to be annoyed if she finds out that we took a plate." I chuckled and looked at the tall and beautiful buildings of Los Angeles. "This place is damn cute, my father works here as a driver." I said and immediately regretted telling her."A driver?" She asked loudly and I became embarrassed. The taxi driver turned back to look at me before paying attention to the road."Huh, he works for a wealthy company." Looking at Helen, she smiled and squeezed my hands gently. "Don't say anything about your family in public." She whispered to me, making sure that the driver didn't hear.I nodded with a smile and began thinking of Brody, I wondered why I was already missing him. That dance! It was so perfect. I was like Cinderella and he was a

Karen's POVJoe came to meet me as I laid on the bed. He sat on the bed and smiled at me. The other housemates were already coming into the bedroom in their pyjamas. "Hey, thanks for choosing me." He murmured.I gave him a smile. "It's nothing. I just needed to choose the first man who approached me." "At least, that's something. I'm really excited that you chose me.""You're Brody's girlfriend, right?" He asked and I nodded. "That's great. You're really beautiful and Brody is lucky to have you." I faked a smile and my mind drifted to Brody. I couldn't stop thinking about him even when I was with Joe. I wanted to forget about him but it seemed impossible.A raspy breath scratched my throat. "So huh, what do you think about us?""I don't know, I don't feel any connection. It's just like the both of you are meant to be."I shrugged. Did he confirm my feelings? Was I in love with Brody? I frowned. "It's night already, you should sleep."H

Karen's POVShe held my hands and smiled. I didn't know what she wanted to tell me, I just stared at her in confusion. "I'm sorry but this is actually my mom's plan, she thinks that you're a golddigger and she wants to prove to my brother that you're a cheat and a liar."My heart almost shattered. "Does he know about this?" I asked.She raised an eyebrow and looked at me. "Who?""I'm talking about Brody, does he know about this?" I asked her.She cleared her throat and paused, looking deep in thought. "He knows about everything."Why would he know of his mother's plan but won't tell me? Did he have another intention? I was really confused. I needed answers."I was expecting him to tell me."She chuckled. "He wanted to also find out if you're a bad person."I frowned. How could he not trust me? I was not the type of person that would betray him especially when I knew the money I would receive for the contract. "I can never love anyone else other th
