In love with my husband Chapter 1 Wedded

Lois storms out of her parent's mansion, feeling defeated, feeling weak in her knees. Once again her parents had won and there was nothing she could do.

She knew she was running out of time. If she doesn't marry Aaron Carson within a month, she would lose her position as an heiress in the robotics company she had worked so hard to build ever since she was a child.

The company she poured half of her existence into, if it wasn't for her, this company would have still been in the 20th position with no hope of rising to the top.

And bow she was been threatened to give it all up or do as they say. Her heart was heavy, but a single teardrop didn't fall from her eyes. This was the peak of her parents' controlling side, but yet she didn't budge.

She had been betrothed to him ever since she was a child. She was a female child and needed a really strong heir by her side to keep her position. Her family didn't see it fit that a woman should be in such a position without a husband by her side.

The patriarchy in her family was really high, but God did well not to bless them with a son, only a daughter, which was her.

She huffed as she lit up the cigarette in her hand and smirked. She remembered the words of her father, which said a woman shouldn't smoke. She smiled and blew out the smoke.

She never had the time for love, friendship, or socialising. She put in all her energy into building this company, working day and night like a dog, exhausting herself to the core and now she was being threatened that she would lose that position she poured half of her life into. She scoffed and blew out more smoke.

Aaron was someone she was familiar with. She hated him. He bullied her a lot when they were little, well not him, his friend group. She hated that he never stood up for her. He let them treat his betrothed like that.

She almost killed herself once because of the bullying, Aaron knew about this but never said anything or did anything to help her.

She had to change school because the bullying was becoming unbearable, and now that they are all grown, he stole most of her eligible clients from her clients from her, he was her rival in the field, he was also into the robotics business amd consideredthe best in the field, hence making him the richestman in the country.

The potential clients who could have made her rise above the second best were all taken by Aaron.

She was enraged by the thought of him, and here she was about to marry him.

It sounded ridiculous to her, at the same time she also didn't see it like a bad idea, all she had to do was get married to the richest man in the country, the man she hated so much and divorce him later on, not like she will fall in love or anything.

The problem was that she hated being controlled by her parents. Every aspect of her life had been written by them, what she ate, what she drank, and who she made friends with. Every single aspect of her life and they they still got to choose who she got married to.

She blew out the smoke from her cigarette as she stood at the entrance of her parents' house.

'Care to light mine' a familiar masculine voice said.

She looked in the direction from which it came and saw who it was.

It was Aaron, he frequented her parents' house ever since they started talking about the wedding. She moved close to him and lit his cigarette, looking straight at him with so much disdain.

'Don't worry about the marriage, it's not like we are going to have children or anything' Aaron said as he puffed out smoke

. He was right. It was just a contract, nothing more. She had to pull herself together, after all great things in life required great sacrifices.

'Goodnight Mr Carson' she finally said her first word to him that night as she strode away with Aaron looking at her back intensely.

(The day of the wedding)

Lois Pov

It was finally the D- day. I was really getting married to Aaron for real. As I walked down the aisle, I saw Aaron looking at me neutrally. My mum and dad looked so proud. I had no friends, so hence no bridesmaid.

Aaron, on the other hand, had a lot of groomsmen all behind him, grinning like fools. Some of the people who bullied me were part of them. Aaron really just had to invite them here. He just had to. Sigh.

Hypocrites. I hated all of them and couldn't wait for this day to be over. I chose to do this because I had worked too hard to lose it all over something so flimsy.

I comforted myself by just thinking of this marriage as a billion dollar deal, which it was. It was part of the way to rising to the top.

I hated Aaron so much. He is so obnoxious, arrogant, and always so full of himself. A narcissist. I hated narcissists so much, but here I was about to get married to one.

'Do you take Lois Anderson to be your lawfully wedded wife' the priest asked Aaron.

'I do' he said with a smirk, there it was, that arrogant behaviour. I was so disgusted.

'Do you take Aaron Carson to be your lawfully wedded husband' he asked me.

'I do' I replied lowly.

'Good, you may kiss the bride' the priest said. Aaron's face moved close to mine, and before I knew it. He planted a long kiss on my lips.

There it was. I was finally married to the man I hated most in the whole world. Hurray.

I arrived at the hotel with Julian's favorite takeout, ready to surprise my fiancé before our big merger. But the moment I swiped the keycard, the silence of the hallway felt heavy and wrong. Inside, a red-soled stiletto lay on the marble floor-the same one I'd watched my best friend Lila try on at Saks last week. Through the cracked bedroom door, I watched Julian's back arch as Lila looked me straight in the eye and smiled, wrapping her legs tighter around him to mock my heartbreak. I fled to the penthouse to hide, only to find Grafton, Julian's "crippled" brother, waiting in the dark. To my horror, the man who was supposed to be paralyzed stood up from his wheelchair, gripped my chin with cold fingers, and forced me to sign a contract that gave him control of my family's shares. He knew about my mother's secret medical bills and used them to buy my silence, effectively turning my life into a calculated game of corporate chess. The betrayal tasted like acid, and the injustice of it all burned in my throat. My fiancé was a liar, my best friend was a thief, and the man now controlling my fate was a predator who had been faking his disability for years. I couldn't understand how everyone I trusted had turned out to be a monster. I was trapped between a man who cheated on me and a man who wanted to own me, with no way out and no one to turn to. But when Julian came looking for me, Grafton didn't hide; he stood tall, looming over me with a possessive glint in his eyes. "Help me destroy Julian," I rasped, realizing that to survive the Faulkner men, I had to become the most dangerous player of them all.

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

Madel Cerda

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.
