Sham Marriage

"Do you Juliet Gracia, take Xavier knight as your husband"

The highest order priest asked Juliet who was the happiest girl in the whole world because she was getting married to the man who she loved all her life.

Juliet raised her head and looked at Xavier who was looking so dashing in a black tuxedo and a butterfly erupted in Juliet's heart that this handsome man was soon going to be his husband.

"I do," Juliet said with a blush on her face and she raised her eyes and looked at Xavier who had no expression on his face.

Everyone wear a white gown for their wedding but Juliet wore a gown of blue colour because that was Xavier's favourite colour and she only wanted Xavier to glance at her with adoration in his eyes.

But Xavier was looking at her with a bored expression like the presence of Juliet didn't matter to him.

Xavier was a billionaire and people knew him as a ruthless and cunning businessman but Juliet was sure that she would make Xavier fall for her. He only wanted to end this stupid marriage thing as soon as possible.

"Do you Xavier knight accept Juliet Gracia as your legally wedded wife" the priest announced.

"I do," Xavier said in his robotic tone and his face void of any emotion.

Xavier hated this girl who stood in front of her in the blue wedding dress. He would never marry a girl like her if his mom didn't force her. Xavier only married Juliet to get the inheritance of properties from his mother's side.

Xavier was a money-minded businessman and he would never leave such big opportunity to gain wealth from this sham marriage.

But poor Juliet was unaware of all the planning and plotting done behind her back because she was so lost in her own dreamland.

"I now pronounced you as husband and wife and you may now kiss the bride," the priest said and the heartbeat of Juliet started to beat rapidly.

Xavier looked at Juliet in a disgusted manner and he was not going to kiss her in this lifestyle, this marriage was nothing but a sham marriage for Xavier and this was the reason that nobody was invited to this wedding.

Because Xavier didn't want anyone to know that he married a commoner.

On the other hand, Juliet's happiness had no boundation because she got married to the man she loved for years.

Finally, the day that she waited for 22 years was in front of her. She closed her eyes because she wanted to feel the first kiss of her life.

Xavier looked at the closed eyes of Juliet who was waiting for him to kiss him but Xavier chuckled internally because he would never kiss a girl like Juliet.

Juliet was a beautiful girl but in eyes of Xavier she was his forced bride and this marriage was nothing but his way of getting all the inheritance under his name.

Xavier took a step back and turned around to leave the altar, everyone was shocked to see the behaviour of Xavier but nobody dared to say anything to him because everyone knew the reality of marriage apart from innocent Juliet who had numerous dreams in her eyes.

Juliet waited and waited for the kiss but it never happened. She opened her eyes slowly but Xavier wasn't present in front of her.
