All Chapters of The Bride He Didn't Want: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The music stopped and everyone was either startled or aggravated. Either way, it got really quiet. All that could be heard was the panicked, pitiful voice of the crying woman on the other side of the door. Daniel looked around at his family in a desperate manner, and then he locked eyes with me. After a few more seconds, he dropped his eyes to the floor and took a deep breath, just before he turned to open the door. "Don't you dare open that door," his father warned him through clenched teeth, with a serious look in his eyes. Daniel stopped and looked at his father directly in his soul, with his hand still on the doorknob. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, a woman that I assume is his mother, stepped forward from behind them somewhere and interrupted him. She was a small woman with sun kissed Irish skin. She was over fifty, but she still had the most beautiful deep auburn hair that you ever did see. She was dressed in a navy blue, floor length gown, with a bustle.

"I will absolutely not accept this, Edgar!" Stella's father raged at Daniel's father. The two had taken a leave from everyone else, and were having a pow wow in a private office. "I am truly sorry, Maxwell, I really am. I had no idea that Daniel was going to behave this way. We didn't raise him like this, it's that bitch Catherine, she's all inside of his head." Edgar apologized to his old friend profusely. "Did you happen to see what I saw in that room just now?" Maxwell asked incredulously, "I will not leave my daughter here to be subjected to a life of abuse. You're lucky that I don't have your whole family killed right now! I cannot tell you how pissed off I really am at the moment," Maxwell raged on. His face was bright red and he had huge veins bulging from his forehead. "You will just have to pay me back in the same way that I helped you in the first place, and don't you dare sit here and cry poor to me!" Stella's father roared. "I know good and well what you are worth Ed

Daniel pulled up in front of the hotel that his father owned in the city, it had been a long drive and he was tired as hell. He told Catherine to wait in the car while he went inside the lobby and straight up to the front desk. It looked as if the man behind the counter was not agreeing with him, and that worried her slightly. She watched as he shook his head angrily and pull out his wallet. He flashed his identification to the clerk, who quickly submitted and changed his tune. She chuckled a little when she saw the clerk drop his head and hand Daniel a key without saying anything else at all. Catherine watched as Daniel snatched the key from the clerk and then turned to come back to the car. He had a storm brewing beneath his dark green eyes, and he wasn't even trying to hide it. She didn't think that she had ever seen him look quite that angry before. His thick dark hair was disheveled and he still had blood on his rumpled up clothes. He didn't say a word as he made fast, wide ste

I slowly started to come to consciousness again at the sound of my mother's voice. My mother wasn't talking to me, but I definitely heard my mom somewhere in the room near me. I struggled against the pain in my head to open my eyes and focus. I did manage it after a few moments and then I tried to call to my mother to get her attention. That's when I heard Daniel's mother's voice as well. I thought it was interesting that they were here in this room alone together and my mother had not beat his mother's ass yet. "Julie, I'm going to make this right for you, I promise," I heard the other woman cry to my own mother."Amanda I don't know how either of us can do that now," I heard my mother say. "I know that you and your husband have done so much for us in the past, we owe you everything, really. I will go see my son right away. If you will still consider the marriage between him and your daughter, I will not only have them stay here with us, but I will assign her some personal maids an

The hospital staff at the emergency room had already been notified of the incoming VIP's, so as the ambulance rolled in, way too hot, it was immediately swarmed with doctors and nurses. It was closely followed by two limousines, one containing Maxwell and the other containing Edward and Amanda. He was so damn mad at them right now that he didn't even want to ride with them, in fact, he couldn't even stand to be near them at the moment.Maxwell exited his car like a lion on the prowl. He was clean and crisp, and he was standing tall. He was also moving in a very slow, dominant way. What was worse, was the look on his face. He was very clearly angry, and he looked as though he was plotting the demise of the whole damn human race, as he casually made his way inside the lobby and up to the desk.Everyone in the parking lot and lobby watched and whispered amongst themselves. They were all curious about the two women who were getting all of the attention from the staff, causing all of the re
