Taming The Gorgeous Beast

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

Xiao Xiaosu
I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

Chapter 1

KEZELLA

I stared blankly at the sight and remembered what happened earlier.

Mama, my mother was lying lifeless when I entered our house, a lot of blood was spread on the pallet while my father seemed to realize what he had done but suddenly he laughed as if he was not himself. t sanity like crazy

"Hija, are you okay?" Grandma asked, Mersing in the absence. He was one of our neighbors who helped us earlier

When I asked for help earlier, he and his husband, grandfather Damian, were the first to come to us to help. Dad was picked up by the police a while ago and mom's body was also picked up a while ago

" O-opo grandma " I barely stuttered the first time I uttered the first word because I must have been shocked

"I'm sorry, daughter, we didn't come to your aid right away, I hope your mom is still alive," said grandmother, Mersing, sadly. I can't blame him because it's not their fault, it's my father's fault

"Grandma, it's not your fault, why are you apologizing? It's my father's fault, no one else," I said. Holding back tears

Dad is so disappointing and I hate him so much, I thought he loved us so much, I thought he wouldn't hurt us but I was wrong because he was able to take mom's life without any resistance

"Don't cry hija, take heart, you have two more brothers, so take heart" I didn't realize that the tears were really falling in my eyes, I bit my lip before turning it on the sight of my two brothers who are now being forced to live by grandfather, Damian

That's where I saw my poor brothers because they were both crying incessantly. They are not yet naive and they don't know what is going on but from what I have seen it seems like they already know what is going on

"I don't know what to do, grandma," I cried, "what are we going to do?" I added.

Grandpa patted my shoulder, Mersing "don't worry, I will take care of you, Grandpa and I are brothers and sisters, your Damian until there is no one else to take care of you" Grandma answered, I immediately looked at her and hugged her tightly

"Thank you, grandma, you're always there for us, even then you've always helped us, I'm forever grateful to you" I said long while hugging grandma, Mersing

A few months ago, I found out that my father smokes illegal drugs and also sells them, so every time he comes home from the village, he seems to be out of his mind, always asking mom for money, scratching his nose, glaring at his red face. eye

My mother was buried for several months, not a single relative attended, only our neighbors helped with all the work because in fact we have no relatives here in the province where we live, even if my father has relatives, I don't know either. I wonder why we don't have relatives here. Every night I think about what I should do, luckily Grandma Mersing and grandfa Damian are there to take care of us

Lola Lola has three children, all boys, and the oldest son currently lives in Manila because he has a business to run, while the other two went to another country and have a job and their own company there, that's how rich the children of grandfather and grandmother but you look at them both are simple because of this hut house but very clean and full of plants and vegetables because grandfather and grandmother like to take care of plants. Every month, Lola, Mersing and Lolo, Damian are sent money by their children, they don't have anyone else in their house except us because their children got married there and they also have a grandchild there.

I am very grateful because grandma and grandpa took care of us even though we are not related or related by blood.

Now we continue to row in life because there is nothing we can do but continue only then we will be able to rest forever when we are gone, I tell myself that I can do it, my brothers and I can do it even though the wound is still fresh.

Mikoy left just last week, isn't it sick? I lost my mother, my best friend left, but I'm not too affected because I know she will come back, I hope she comes back.

"Kezella grandchild, come so we can eat," said grandma Mersing. I'm busy watering the plants and vegetables because I'm used to doing it every morning since we've lived here. Our house has been demolished because it cannot be lived in because something unpleasant has happened so it should not be lived in because it is bad according to the superstition here in our province, believe it or not I don't want to live in our old house anymore home because I don't want to remember the loss of our mother. I don't want to remember but I can't forget the horrible murder of my mother, I will hate her for the rest of my life and I will bury it in my grave.

We always help grandfather and grandmother with housework in cleaning, cleaning, gardening and whatever else as long as we can help them because mom taught us to help with any task so we are used to it

"Yes, grandma, it's here," was the only answer

AT the dining table, we shared the stewed eggplant that grandma picked earlier in the yard and chicken eggs that grandpa took from the jail earlier. It was so delicious that I had a spoonful of rice

"Grandson, next month you will enter school. Continue your studies" grandma said to me so I immediately looked at her. Do I come in?

"Grandma, don't spend more, I won't come in anymore, I'll just help you" I reasoned before taking a bite of rice and dishes

"It's not possible grandpa, we want you to learn something in school. You're not even related by blood, but we consider you family, so that's all we can inherit from you," said grandpa, Damian. My brothers and I were very lucky because we ended up with them

"Grandpa..." I stopped for a moment because I couldn't explain the joy in my heart "I promise you that I will get better, I want you to be proud of me" I said with a smile. I also immediately saw the joy in their eyes that I always wanted to see. My two brothers can go to school next year, so I will be the first to go to school this year.
