The Unexpected Marriage Deal/Rosewillz
LAURAWhat?Did I just hear clearly? I knew I shouldn't be expecting much when I was one of the reason for all this that was happening. Eric mentioned to me that all this, all our acting, our shows to the public were just for a year... And we'll break up.My lips parted, but my eyes said otherwise. Something I couldn't decipher as I muttered, “Fine then..I can't wait to get out of your trap, Mr. Eric Sloan.” I responded, even though my mouth felt at the words I just spewed. Eric let out an Irish grin at me as we approached where some guests were in the round table. My eyes suddenly met Agatha's and I earned a cold daring glare from her as I sat almost close to Eric.“Good evening all of you.” Eric exchanged pleasantries to them, exchanging handshakes and smile. Gosh, Eric Sloan does smile? Wow. Someone pinch me.I kept dragging the short red dress I wore which screamed luxurious, uncomfortable at Agatha's cold glares. Only if eyes could kill someone, I'm sure she would have done almo

LAURAIt was finally, finally the D-Day of the wedding. I wouldn't say my wedding because I was against it. Minutes ago, Eric had called to ask if I was ready. They were waiting for me at the cathedral.I stood in front of the huge mirror, staring at my reflection. I wouldn't deny the fact that this dress looked so expensive to its taste, but the tears that fell from the corners of my eyes threatened to ruin my makeup. Seriously, who does wedding this way? A wedding where none of your relatives or your guardians knows nothing about. My mind reeled with different thoughts about Mum and my brother, Eric tried to blackmail me using my brother's face on another guy on Harvard College and now I was sure he's doing alright since I'm giving in into his demand.“Mum, I hope you're safe,” I mumbled to myself. Rena kept calling, but I couldn't answer. Not without guilt eating me up. I couldn't even bring myself to tell her about all this. All what I was doing.My phone rang again. It was the

ERICThroughout the night of our honeymoon, I noticed Laura was distancing away from me. What! Was there something in how I looked or how was I towards her? Was I being cold?I glanced over at Laura at the dinning table to see her staring at me. Though it was awkward now that the public believed we're married and we'd be living in the same house.Yeah, it was weird.“How do you see the meals, Sir Eric?” Sasha, my maid asked when she came to me, causing me to lift my eyes to her.“Oh, right. They are sumptuous, Sasha.” I flashed her a smile and she smiled. Sasha was the head maid, and unlike the other maids, she's the only one whom I trusted things around with anytime I was absent, even back in my mansion. She's one of those close to me.As Sasha walked past Laura's seat, I could sense the uncomfortable aura coming from Laura when Sasha left the dining room for us.“What? You aren't cool with her?” Laura glanced up at me when I ask. Did I forget to mention her large eyes looked beautif

LAURAEric's jaw dropped at my words, I rolled my eyes, and uncaged myself from his hold. Yeah, I said all that. Someone has to put this jerk of a husband in his position. “You, bitch!” Eric sneered at me while I gave an involuntary groan. I was tired, stressed out of everything, but I couldn't stop wondering about how Mum must be doing.“Eric..” I faced him almost immediately to meet his hard glare on me. I gulped, “Do you perhaps know how my brother is doing?” I would rather not ask but I did anyway.Eric scoffed at me, raking his fingers into his hair. Gosh, Laura, you must have spoken so harsh to him. But he deserved it, right? “Yes, maybe. I don't know,” My eyes widened. “What do you mean?”“Yes, he is alright. He's still schooling.” I heard him scoff again and my mind relaxed. I sighed softly, “Will you, uh, excuse me? I need to get dressed,” I bit my lower lip hard seeing how his eyes wandered around my body like he was trying to convince himself about something. After much

LAURA“Something came up?” I asked before I could stop myself. Eric sneered and responded.“Can you just stop asking questions? Don't add to it, will you? I just said we need to leave and that's final!” He half yelled and walked away. Must he always be in a bad mood?I trudged back to the mansion, preparing to leave like he ordered. Eric sent for Flynn to come pick us up. We both sat in the living room, prepared to leave but none of us said a single word. Eric just fixated his gaze on his iPad as usual, while I just sat and nibble on my lips, praying silently for time to go by fast.Car honks suddenly sounded from outside, and Eric stood up almost immediately, heading for the door.Flynn was here!“Let's go,” He muttered coldly and finally left. I got to the door and turned back to glance at the house. Sasha wasn't around.“Laura!” Eric's yell made me rush out this time. I would rather not keep getting on his bad side all the time. He seemed so stressed out from what I've seen. Oh, r

ERICA while ago, when I was outside the terrace before we disembarked to the mansion, Tyler had called to discuss something about Larry, Laura's brother. I couldn't bring myself to share it with her because I knew how worried she'd turn out.Laura and I returned back home. Agatha was around, I saw her car parked in the driveway, but I was too focused on getting to the office on time. Few minutes later, my car screeched to a stop as I head towards the elevator riding to the second storey that detected my office.“Good day, Sir.” Lillian, my PA greeted when she beheld me. I flashed her a small smile as I walked into my office and as usual, Tyler was waiting.He stood up at once when he saw me walk in. “Bro!”“What's wrong, Tyler? I had to return almost immediately after you called.” I stated, my palms heating up. “You could have just trusted me to deal with it. It's your honeymoon, nothing was supposed to ruin it.” Tyler huffed grimly, and I scoffed, slanting to my swivel chair.“Tyl

LAURA“I'm not mean!” Agatha fired back at me. I shut my eyes and opened them again, letting out a soft sigh. “Okay.” I replied. I wasn't in the mood to get on Agatha's bad side. Likewise, I knew she had something against me right from the very first day she interviewed me.“Tell me, how much did my brother pay you to do this?” She retorted, folding her hands under her boobs.I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ears as I replied. “What do you mean?”Agatha stared at me from the crown of my head to the sole of my feet and back at my face. Her gazes were even colder and my legs throbbed on the floor. “How much did he pay you for this marriage? I can just send you double of it, and you leave him alone!”“He didn't p-pay me anything,” I replied. “Now I'm warning you, Laura or whatsoever you call yourself. I'll make sure you live a miserable life if you can't leave this house. You ruined my brother! You ruined him at the eyes of the public!” Agatha yelled at me with bitterness in her

LAURAI nearly choked on the glass of water I held when Eric mentioned me as his escort.“I'm your escort? Like, you mean I'll go with you?” I asked, not believing my ears. Eric Sloan is just something else. Was this some part of his game where he takes me somewhere to threaten me again or disgrace me?Eric stared at me blankly and nodded. “Yes, obviously. You'll have to go with me. I need you there with me,” He replied. My stomach tingled in sensation as my cheeks heated a blush even though I didn't know what ceremony event it was. Agatha was already boiling with rage from her seat, and I was tempted to laugh out.“Seriously, Eric? You'll make her your escort? I'm starting to think this fake thing you claimed is beginning to turn real!” Agatha busted out before she could stop herself. She stood up, glaring at me murderously.Eric paused eating to look up at her as he dabbed his lips. “What do you mean, Agatha? Is there something I should know between you two?” Eric asked, averting h

ERICFrom the moment I stepped out of the car with Laura beside me, I knew coming to this event wasn't going to end well. I was at my competitor's place and now upon seeing him, I wanted to punch him, hit him with anything close to me and make him feel the same pain that I felt a month ago.I watched as Aaron's eyes ate Laura's gaze rawly. Only God knew how cool I managed to become. Guests gathered the place, I wouldn't want to cause a scenario.“Meet my girlfriend, Bella. Mrs. Laura Sloan.” He grinned mischievously, and that's when my head tilted to see Bella approaching him.Her expression died down when her eyes met with mine and I glared at her with nothing but hate. This woman has no shame, no respect at all . Memories of that night flooded into my head like it happened fresh and I gritted my teeth.Aaron faced Laura, whom I was sure would be surprised at the turn of events. “Why are you looking fazed, Mrs. Laura?” He asked purposefully.Laura battled her lashes as she looked at

LAURAI watched as Eric lost all his control and attacked Aaron with a knuckle punch which rested me daze. My eyes wandered the place and guests were starting to stare in our direction despite Bella trying to settle them.Eric's outburst was never expected, which left me to wonder what's the grave secret between them. Why did he hate Aaron so much? Was it because of Bella? I couldn't stop pondering inwardly.“Let's go, Laura ” Eric came again and he started to walk away, ignoring those who kept murmuring words among themselves as I trailed behind him. I could feel Aaron's eyes on me as I followed Eric right behind.“I'm sorry,” I mouthed at him, so Eric wouldn't hear us, but he eventually heard. Oops! “Don't apologize to that lunatic, Laura.” Eric snapped at me till we left their sight.“What was that about, Eric? You just caused a scene in there! What if the people had captured the moment, and it goes viral?” I questioned.“You don't know anything, so just shut up.” He grunted, and I
