Gabriella 's POVI observed my mother as she prepared me for a marriage to a man she deemed suitable. The fact that they considered this normal repulsed me, but I had come to accept that I had no control over the situation. They desired it, and I was compelled to comply. Whether or not I liked it, they believed it was appropriate for me to marry the man of their choosing."He is a good man, Gabriella . He has agreed to assist our family, and you must understand that nothing comes without a price," she remarked, causing me to chuckle involuntarily. I couldn't help it. The man was demanding compensation for his help. It wasn't as though he was doing it out of pure benevolence."Mother, he is marrying me," I replied, meeting her gaze squarely. "And he is not doing it for free." Does that mean, I'm the price for his actions?"Marrying him doesn't mean you are paying a price for anything. If anything, it will elevate us from a financially struggling family to one that is wealthy and has re

Gabriella 's POVWe stood in front of the cameras, their flashes blinding us, while a pack of cameramen trailed behind, capturing our every move. As we made our way towards our private plane, I couldn't help but feel trapped in this media circus. Putting on a fake smile, I glanced at Diego , who was equally struggling to maintain his composure. The incessant clicking of the cameras made it evident that we were growing weary, yet it appeared that nobody really cared."It seems we're stuck here for a while," I murmured, my words laced with forced cheerfulness. Diego , trying his best to hide his frustration, mustered a smile in response. We both knew that we couldn't escape the relentless paparazzi, but how did they even manage to infiltrate the runway? We would have to address this issue with the person in charge.Diego voiced his bewilderment, "I don't understand how they gained access to the runway. We'll need to have a discussion with the responsible party." I shook my head in agree

Gabriella 's POVSitting on the edge of my bed, I pondered the overwhelming situation I found myself in. The night had been restless, leaving me with little sleep. However, I knew I had to rise much earlier than him to prepare myself. The last thing I wanted was to create a negative impression that could lead to unfavorable gossip about me.Having already dressed myself, I opted for a modest navy blue dress and paired it with white heels. That was the way we were taught to present ourselves. Whether it was a dress or an elegant combination of pants and a shirt, heels or sneakers, we were expected to maintain a certain appearance in case we had guests. Sneakers were reserved solely for activities like the gym, yoga, or pilates. Generally, my outfits were chosen to be presentable even if we had unexpected visitors.Although it was already past nine in the morning, I had already completed my makeup. This was the norm in our family, regardless of the hour.Taking a deep breath, I rose fro

As soon as Diego dropped the call, he turned to face the Director who had submitted the proposal. Everyone was sure he was going to fire him moreover, six directors had been fired ever since he took the President position. "I want a new proposal before the day ends," Diego said as he stood up and stepped outside. The director in person fell to the ground, relief coursing through his veins as his other colleagues helped him up while congratulating him on not losing his job. Only in Rodriguez Corporations would you congratulate someone for not losing their jobs. "Send Gabriella's picture to the bodyguards and securities, whenever she's coming over, no one is allowed to stop her" Diego said as his secretary nodded. 'Is Miss Gabriella coming today?" he asked as Diego continued walking in long strides. "Probably" Diego replied as he walked into the office. "Set up the online meeting with the branch in Vietnam," Diego said as his secretary nodded. "On it sir" he replied. Mona burst

As Gabriella stepped out of the cafe, a frown appeared on her face as she got back into the car. It was supposed to be a marriage of convenience but Gabriella didn't know what was going on. She had no idea of what was going on in her head or with her body at all.Even though she knew Diego had zero feelings for Stephanie, she couldn't conceal the hate in her heart at all. She sighed as she threw her head backwards and different thoughts began racing through her head.The driver turned into the premises of Rodriguez Corporations and Gabriella glanced at the tall building indifferently."What did you just say?" Diego asked again."Miss Omo arrived in the country late yesterday night and blocked MissGabriella 's way while coming back from school. They had a discussion in a cafe" his secretary replied as Diego raised an eyebrow."Is Beth okay?" Diego asked as the secretary winced and dropped a laptop in front of Diego . His wife had brutally murdered the other woman eventhough she was c
