She had no idea that it wasn't going to happen anytime soon. Elias, the CEO of a million-dollar company, was said to be a man who had no interest in women. Strangely, he took an interest in Scarlett. Scarlett tried all she could to get him off her back, but he just wouldn't stop. When she couldn't take it anymore, she showed him her marriage certificate and said, "I'm a married woman. I can't date you!" Elias snatched her marriage certificate and pointed to the photo on it as he smiled. "Even better! It's high time I introduced myself. Hey, I'm Elias Roberts, your husband!" Scarlett was shocked to the bone. She couldn't believe that her mysterious husband was actually the CEO of a top company! How the hell did this happen?

Ensnared By My Bossy Husband Chapter 1 The Abandoned Bride

The day marked Scarlett Wallace's wedding, yet the man she was about to wed was a complete mystery to her.

With nerves fluttering, she rested her hands on her thighs, the fabric of her white wedding gown crumpled under her tense grip.

At that moment, Scarlett harbored a deep desire to retreat, but her circumstances held her hostage. Her grandmother's medical bills forced her into this union, despite the absence of any family members at her wedding.

"Why are you lingering here? It's time to proceed. Mrs. and Mr. Roberts shouldn't be kept waiting!" the servant reprimanded, pulling Scarlett forward with undue force.

Despite the sharp pain shooting up her arm, Scarlett found herself positioned at the altar's forefront, where she finally laid eyes on her future husband.

Her view, however, was hindered by the veil, revealing only the hazy shape of a tall man.

Though his features were obscured, a distinct chill seemed to radiate from him.

Was this the man she was to spend her life with?

Eager for a clearer view, Scarlett edged closer, intent on lifting the veil.

Elias Roberts, the groom, caught sight of her approach and his expression darkened, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

Instinctively, he recoiled, widening the gap between them.

Scarlett's heart ached at his evident aversion.

His grandmother had chosen her as his bride, and until now, she believed she was the only one reluctantly participating.

Yet, it seemed the groom was equally displeased with their arranged marriage.

She smiled mockingly at herself, aware he probably felt resentment against her.

His earlier demeanor hinted at his disgust.

Still, Scarlett had no other option but to proceed. She couldn't refuse.

The priest initiated the wedding ceremony before them.

Scarlett cast her gaze downward, going through the motions without truly hearing any words.

As the ceremony ended, the priest declared solemnly, "Now the groom may kiss the bride."

At that instant, Scarlett's attention snapped back. Her breath halted, and she clenched her hands, anticipating the lifting of her veil.

Then, the phone in the groom's suit pocket rang unexpectedly.

To the astonishment of all, the groom answered the call right in the middle of the wedding.

His face transformed upon hearing the voice on the other end. He turned and swiftly exited.

Before Scarlett could process what was happening, his grandmother Ella Roberts stepped forward, trying to stop him. She whispered sternly, "What in the world are you doing? It's your wedding! Are you trying to run away?"

"Grandma, I've fulfilled your wish by marrying her. I have no reason to waste my time here. There are more pressing matters I must attend to," Elias replied icily, his words cutting through the air and passing to Scarlett.

Watching his retreating back, Scarlett stood in shock. Was their wedding nothing but a trivial event to him?

"Mrs. Roberts!"

Startled by the servant's shout, Scarlett hastily lifted her veil, revealing her striking features.

As she saw Ella collapsing, Scarlett moved to assist her but was pushed aside by a servant.

"Move! You're not needed here!"

A sudden pain shot through Scarlett's ankle, causing her to fall.

Her face drained of color. Looking up, she saw the servants leaving with Ella, leaving her alone in the church.

Church staff murmured softly, observing the drama that had just unfolded.

"Poor bride, left all alone like this..."

"They say that family is wealthy. She seems quite unwelcome. How did she end up marrying into such wealth?"

"Maybe she resorted to some clever tactics? It's not rare to see poor girls marrying into wealth through some underhanded tricks. She might have brought this upon herself!"

"I think you're right..."

Upon hearing their words, Scarlett's hands clenched into fists, her nails pressing into her skin.

A year had passed, and Scarlett, now working at an educational agency, was driving to her job.

Over the past twelve months, she had adjusted to life without her husband.

She had been working hard to save money, aiming to pay back her grandmother's medical bills.

Once she had enough, she planned to file for divorce.

She was excited about her progress as she drove when a car sped around a corner and collided with hers.

Both drivers managed to stop their vehicles in time, yet the cars still collided, producing a significant crash.

Scarlett, regaining her composure, firmly grasped the steering wheel. Noticing the other car hadn't moved, she confidently stepped out and tapped on the driver's side window.

As it lowered, a strikingly handsome man came into view.

He gazed up at Scarlett, asking indifferently, "What seems to be the problem?"

His dismissive tone elicited an irate chuckle from Scarlett. "Well, your car struck mine. What do you think is the issue? You..."

Mid-sentence, she was interrupted by the man extending a check. "This should cover the repairs for your car. Will this suffice?"

Scarlett looked at him, her expression one of disbelief, as she tried to process the unexpected turn of events.

Elias, with growing impatience, furrowed his brow. "Miss, I have urgent matters to attend to. Please don't delay me."

A sudden flutter touched Scarlett's heart, prompting a slight furrow in her brow.

The harsh, detached statement stirred a poignant memory, instantly taking her back to the moment her husband left her stranded at their wedding a year prior.

The haunting phrase resonated within her: "I have no reason to waste my time here. There are more pressing matters I must attend to."

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.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch-a titan of industry and my best friend's father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
