Chapter One

“Mr. Radcliffe will see you now,” his secretary, Miss Havilah said to the young lady who had been sitting outside the boss’ office for close to two hours. Tasha was not in her Sunday best but she had managed to get the wrinkles out of her pleated skirt and her shirt was starched till it was as stiff as a snobbish old lady. She had been afraid that the security would not let her in considering how poorly dressed she was. Every now and then, she pushed her thick glasses up her nose, playing with her fingers too out of anxiety. From the newspapers and internet business news, Mr Radcliffe was definitely not an ordinary man. She wondered how her father could have known such a powerful man as Nelson Radcliffe. “Thank you,” she murmured and gradually got on her feet. She clutched her purse close to her chest, looking as petrified as a chick. Her heels were broken from the impact of jumping off the bus and they clacked noisily against the milky tiles. Her embarrassment doubled when necks tur

CHAPTER TWO

Nelson was taken aback by her nonsensical question. She looked genuinely surprised, like she was just hearing the topic for the first time. He had assumed that Spencer had discussed the whole thing with his daughter. Personally, he was not too happy about getting shackled into marriage with a ill-looking young lady after two failed marriages. Natasha King reminded him of one of the orphans in a charity home he had recently donated a huge sum of money to. She looked distasteful and lacked simple fashion sense. He still has the scars of divorce to prove that all women were the same. Once they perceived that a man was wealthy, they did everything humanly possible to burrow their way into his life and immediately they got what they wanted, they were on their way. At least, he had enough experience to criticize them. His first marriage had been to Janice Bridge, an English model and thirteen years his junior. He had been young and foolish back then to fall for her wiles and charming wo

Chapter Three

Chapter 3 On her way home, Tasha reminiscened the events that had taken place in Mr Radcliffe’s office. Prior to entering his office, the notion of marriage had never crossed her mind. Many a young woman would jump at the idea of being a billionaire’s wife but Tasha was old-fashioned when it came to issues of the heart. She believed that a marriage was to be built on love, not on material fantasies. Yet, she had just sold herself to save her family from ruin. It was a sacrifice she could not term selfless because she was totally against it. She was not interested in the trinkets he would give her because the jewelries would not compare to the love he could not give her. “Tell Spencer that the deal is done. You can take a copy of the agreement to him as evidence. His presence is required so that we can discuss the marriage date as soon as possible. Everyone will think that it is an arranged marriage so you are to pretend that we are in love. I believe you should be good at that judg

Chapter Four

“Why didn't you tell me, Dad? It’s not fair! This is my life you toyed with, my future and you sold me without my knowledge.” Tasha paced the wooden floor of the dining table, unable to sit down any longer. Usually, she was the coolheaded and reasonable one but the situation at hand called for violence. She had waited till after dinner, barely managing to chew her dinner to discuss the disturbing topic with her parents. She was angry and her soul wanted retribution for the wrongs done against her. Henchard, her younger brother watched them curiously, eating his dinner in silence. Spencer held his head down in shame and her mom patted his back, sharing in his pain. “Henchard, would you mind finishing your dinner upstairs in your room?” May requested in a suggestive voice. The young man frowned, letting his spoon drop noisily into his plate. He had thought they would not notice his presence in the midst of the hubbub. It was not everyday one saw Tasha lose her temper. “But why? You

Chapter Five

The weather was perfect, cloudy and humid, just right for an outdoor wedding. It was true that only her immediate family was invited and although she missed her best friend, Virginia, it was partially glad that none of their classmates were present. She had been the brightest in class back then and the student with the highest potential of continuing her education. However, she sat in a wedding chamber, fanning herself nervously though she was not feeling hot. The ivory ribbed dress was fitted to her like a second skin and the diamond teardrops on her ears were worth a fortune. Any woman would be happy, knowing the luxurious life that awaited her, any woman but Mrs Tasha King–Radcliffe. Nelson sat beside her, his fake smile gone from his lips and an indifferent mask on his face. He was a better actor than she could attempt and he had to subtly pinch her at her elbow to remind her to smile whenever a camera passed by. She was sick of the pretence and her cheeks hurt from smiling all

Chapter Six

Last night left Tasha sinking into the depth of her tears and anxieties. First, she's married to the arrogant Mr. Nelson Radcliffe - the man whom every woman wants on their bed. The marriage wasn't with her consent, and now, he abandoned her on their wedding night. The wedding night is when newlyweds get to bond and make love, right?Tasha thought. But those thoughts are clustered in her mind, Nelson doesn't give a damn after all. ****** An offensive knock on the door swung Tasha out of sleep. Exasperated breaths evaded her lips as she twirled on the large bed in an attempt to rise on her feet. The bright chandelier made her squint her eyes - with her fragile hand blocking its shimmering radiance. She sauntered towards the door. For a second, she caught a glimpse of her wedding dress, laying on the bed. She huffed at the sight of it. More like a steamy scene from a Disney movie - a couple waking up to the mess they made on their wedding night. But it is a different story here, she

Chapter Seven (Adventurous Honeymoon I)

Nelson held the door, sticking his head into the room. Tasha forgot to lock the door. Her entire system tremors as she ruffled her phone under the duvet. She wiped her face with the back of her hand, trying to hide her tears. She bent her head as she look at the floor. Maintaining eye contact with Nelson at this moment will mean trouble and another round of slandering utterances. An awkward moment of silence spurted through the four edges of the room. Nelson walked towards Tasha - eyes fixed on her. He was irritated moments ago when he first walked in, but now the disgruntled look on his face could terrify a lion. He stood a few inches close to her. "You...!" A sinister grin curled on his spherical lips. He leaned close to Tasha - his height same as hers as he spotted beside her. "You hate me?" He screeched. His words sounded more like a statement than a question. Tasha had her heart wafting on her tongue, not knowing what reply to give. It was flagrant that he eavesdropped on her

Chapter Eight (Adventurous Honeymoon II)

The trip to Paris lasted for three hours. To Tasha, it felt like forever. Her stomach hummed in fear until they touched down. They were surrounded by a multitude of people when they landed at the airport. It was as if a celebrity made a surprise appearance and their fans went crazy at the sight of them. Who doesn't know Nelson Radcliffe, the famous business mogul? Most of them had their phones held up as they took pictures of the couple. Nelson's cheeks were hurting from excessive smiling. A facade he uses in persuading everyone into believing he is happily married. "Why aren't you smiling?" Nelson whispered to Tasha as they walked towards the car that'll convey them to their honeymoon locale. "Don't mess this up bitch" he opened the back seat for Tasha to get in. A sparing and pretentious gesture. The smile on his face faded when he sat beside her in the back seat. Tasha stared into space, her lips were shut as she nervously gulped the lump in her throat. "You don't have to be a

Chapter Nine (End Of Honeymoon)

Tasha huffed at the view in front of her. Her lips formed an orbit. Her hand trembled on the door, as she tightened her grip on it. Nelson scurried to cover himself with the duvet, even though his entire body was covered in sweat. Bella wasn't fully naked - her skirts were flapped upward during the quickie. She ran into the bathroom the moment Tasha stepped into the room, leaving Nelson to deal with the embarrassing situation. "I...I'm sorry" Tasha stuttered, breaking the awkward stillness. Tasha squinted her eyes, not knowing what to do. Either slam the door and walk away or dash toward Nelson and dab his sweaty face with slaps. Nelson let out a sharp breath. He wiped a streak of sweat that trickled down to his eyebrows - unable to utter a word. Tasha gently closed the door - she strode back to her room, her heart boiling in extreme anger. Bella announced earlier that lunch will be ready in ten minutes, and within the next five minutes, she was fucking Nelson. Tasha tried to proc

Chapter Ten (Back Home)

Tasha's eyes flickered in awe as the car drove through a huge gate. It had a vast and elegant inscription on it 'The Radcliffe Mansion' The outside was filled with guards who looked hefty like badly built mannequins. Tasha and Nelson just got back from the airport. Tasha's heart was still crammed with grudges - the built-up grudge caused by the fact that Nelson hit her because she confronted him for cheating on her. For a second it all wiped away at the sight of the magnificent building. They alighted from the car, Nelson rushed towards the entrance of the building. The guards who stood by the doorway crouched their heads in homage when Nelson passed them. Tasha was carried away by the beautiful scenery. The house seethed with luxury at its peak. She had seen a lot of luxurious mansions in LA, but this one right here tops the list. The sidewalks were beautified with plants - birthing a natural aura. Some parts of the house were made of glass too, and the exotic cars that were parked
