All Chapters of Twisted Fate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The next day, Claire was up and dressed for work at the Arrington's.Claire joggled down the stairs to meet Cole already dressed up for school. " Here. Take this. " She said, advancing some dollars to him and Cole received it. " You got back earlier than before last night. " Cole said." Huh? " " I heard you come in. It wasn't even 10pm yet. What happened? " Cole asked and Claire bit her lip. " It's nothing. " She said. " Come on. You don't want to get to school late. " Claire said and Cole sighed. " Why am I asking? You never tell me anything anyways. " He said, walking out of the house. Claire sighed, following and she locked the door. She hailed a cab and dropped her brother off. Then she headed to her work place. Claire alighted the cab and exhaled softly staring at the mansion. She felt each day she looked at it. It just seemed much more beautiful and bigger. She looked around and noticed none of the guards were around. She walked to the door and rang the doorbell. She w

Claire stared into the mirror, watching the maids make her up.It's finally the day of her wedding–Josie's wedding. Since the past two days, Claire's life has changed drastically. All her life, she has always wished to live in a mansion. Wear nice, expensive clothes, Bath in a tub, walk in nice shoes to nice places. Live a luxurious life. And somehow in the blink of an eye. She has all of that. And hell, she was now about to get married to one of the most successful and young business men in Washington.But none of the changes in her life made Claire happy. Not the clothes, not even the title as the CEO of a huge company. Cause this wasn't how she wished for these things to happen. She wanted to achieve these things by herself and make herself and her younger brother happy. She never wanted to live a lie and that was exactly what she was doing now. The thought of it all alone brought tears to Claire's eyes and she blinked them back.A knock came on the door and the door opened, rev

Ryan looked at Bethany, surprised by her suggestion. Ryan had known Bethany for a while and had never seen her dance so it was shocking when she suggested they do so.Unsure of Bethsny’s dancing skills and unwillingness to engage in any activity that would make him look less cool, Ryan decided to ask for clarity on what he heard her ask before he gave her a reply.“Did you just ask for a dance?” Ryan asked.“Yes, I did. Is there anything wrong with that?” Bethany replied. Ryan paused, he had heard correctly so he had to give her a reply now. Ryan could turn her down if he wanted but he felt it would be good if the groom and bride were dancing with different people so he decided to accept her request.“You sure you're up to it? I'm a really good dancer?” said Ryan taking Bethany’s hand and standing up.“Oh. Show me then,” Bethany replied.“My pleasure, try to keep up,” said Ryan.They went to the dancefloor and Claire couldn't believe what she was seeing. The same girl she had danced

Claire felt nervous sitting beside Ryan in the backseat. She didn't know the kind of person he was. Even though their wedding was arranged, she thought he was still going to demand sex.It wouldn't be out of place if he demanded it anyway. After all, it was their wedding night, and it was clear she had no choice but to accept.The driver was driving very fast, and their bodies brushed each other several times, making her shiver. It was like he would grab her any moment from now, and the stench of beer on him wasn't helping matters.Earlier, Mason and she had won the dance, and Ryan hadn't been pleased about it. After Ryan lost, he whispered in Claire’s ear that a woman is supposed to help her husband and not bring him down.Claire had been terrified and unable to utter a word when he began to laugh suddenly. Still, she couldn't tell whether he was offended or not.Many rumors had been spread about Ryan, and the entire city knew he didn't value women. Today, she was beginning a new lif

Claire followed because there was nothing more to do, and she had no choice. They both went In and left the billionaire to his bodyguards.“Claire, I was impressed with your performance; I didn't know you were such a talented dancer. It was very interesting to watch your battle online. Don't tell anyone, but I was rooting for you, “ she said, saying the last part in whispers.Claire smiled, embarrassed after that moment. She had been very happy and satisfied when they won because of how it made Bethany feel.It turns out that betting higher than the boys was more dangerous than it seemed. Unlike them, who were guys and didn't care about anything, Bethany was not used to losing, and she was very angry, having to give away that huge amount of money to him for free.Claire had kept a straight face throughout the dance and afterward, but she had been laughing inside as the sight had been very funny.After the dance, Bethany had eyed her and left, showing her disgust. If only they had agre
