Chapter Eleven

Lucy’s POVI was fully dressed in a gorgeous blue dress, which sparkled in the dark. I took a moment to admire the matching diamond earrings and necklace which was on me. I let out a little gasp. “Wow, this is beautiful.”Everything was perfect, I couldn't help but admire the dress even more.But then reality struck—this was all temporary. What would happen to me if I couldn't play my role well?A knock at the door helped me escape my thoughts. “Miss Lucy, the car is ready.” It was Maxwell. He peeked in. I swallowed hard. “Right. I'll be out in ten,”I had light makeup on and my hair curled into soft waves.I tried my best to look the part. *********The ride to the Jacksons’ Mansion was quiet which made the thoughts in my head, loud. Maxwell was seated beside me and the driver was in front. I felt Maxwell’s gaze on me. He could see through my anxiety. He broke the silence. “Hey, I know this is a lot but remember why you're here, okay?,” he said, finally. I gazed at him shortly.

Chapter Twelve

~Lucy’s Pov~ It's been three months since the contract, and I got married to Drey a month later. After the first dinner with his family and my conversation with Julian, I couldn't bring myself to tell Drey that his father already knew it was a fake wedding. Watching him fake being in love with me in front of his dad always makes me uncomfortable. I usually get scared because I'm caught up in the middle. But after the wedding, things became even more difficult. From going to one business meeting to becoming the most talked about couple on social media. We were able to portray a good relationship in public, but behind closed doors, we were total strangers. I remember when I went to a gala with Drey for the first time. It was more complex than I had anticipated, his arms around me throughout the event. Faking up stories about how we met and fell in love. But despite his kind gestures, I could see the emptiness in his eyes. It has been exhausting, I don't have the freedom to go any

Chapter 13

~Drey’s Pov~ “Whoever you think you are, you're not!” I snapped, my anger rising above my radar. “I need you in that office right now, Lucy. Don't fucking test me.” My voice was like steel—calm, but dangerous.“It's not my fault I'm out, your—” Lucy replied in a shaky voice. I ended the call before she could finish her statement. I slammed the phone on the desk so hard, it almost broke. Why the hell was I this upset? I wasn’t just pissed—something deeper clawed at me. She was out, without my say. But was it just about control… or the fact that I couldn’t stand the idea of her choosing to be out of my sight?“Why would she go out in PUBLIC!!! Without my permission? Who does she think she is?” I shot at Maxwell, my voice sharp like a razor. “Isn't she supposed to be working?” I turned to Maxwell, eyes blazing. Maxwell was in the office with me but he knew when to keep his mouth shut and when to speak. I stared at the city below through the glass window. I took in deep breaths to

Chapter 14

~Drey’s Pov~Wait… what?” My brows shot up, my heart thudding in disbelief.“You told him? How the hell did he find out?” I asked, over and over, like the words might change.Lucy shifted nervously, her voice barely a whisper. “It was… that night at dinner. He figured it out right away. But he told me to stay quiet. I—I was scared, Drey.”My chest tightened, I didn't want to believe what I heard. So she and my dad had been watching me fool around all these while? My eyes widened. “So all this time, you've been fooling me? ” My voice rose, sharp and cold. “God, you’re so stupid! Do you even realize what this means? He knows. He knows everything.”“Now, he has you at the tip of his fingers—waiting patiently for you to do something wrong, and then— crush you.”Lucy flinched, blinking multiple times. Her face was laced with guilt in every inch.Abigail just stared, her mouth covered with her palm in disbelief, her face was pale, and it was hard for her to take it all in. Her eyes drifted
