Spoiling His Reluctant Runaway Bride Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Runaway Bride

It was a long holiday weekend, and the entire city was in celebration mode.

At The Grand Court Hotel, Westbridge's most extravagant venue, a dozen weddings were happening simultaneously, each one unfolding with seamless precision.

On the sixtieth floor, in a dark little utility room, Serena Dawson was nodding off from exhaustion.

Earlier that morning, while getting her makeup done downstairs, she overheard some gossip - apparently, a super exclusive wedding was taking place on the sixtieth floor. Both the bride and groom came from elite families. Especially the groom - a real legend in Westbridge.

To keep the whole thing private, the elevators were locked down past the 60th floor. No VIP badge, no entry.

That overheard gossip basically saved her. While the lobby was packed with people, she had quietly slipped off, climbed the stairs, and ducked into this room to hide.

Her parents were trying to force her to marry a man old enough to be her dad, just to cover a gambling debt of 600,000 bucks.

She never imagined there'd be a price tag on her one day, let alone a six-hundred-thousand-dollar one. How flattering.

She was in such a rush to bail she didn't even get to change. The wedding dress she was stuck in was suffocating.

She didn't know how long she'd been in there, half-asleep, before music started playing.

She flinched awake, curiosity kicking in.

Weddings like this are a first for her.

She nudged the door open just a crack, and peeked out. From her angle, she could only see the groom on stage.

And boy - he was something else. Sharp eyes, sculpted features, brows like blades, and thin lips. Tall, lean, and in that tailored suit? The man looked like he walked off a magazine cover. He practically oozed power and wealth.

That was money talking, no doubt.

But wait - why did he look so... bored? Shouldn't grooms at least pretend to smile?

"Mr. Quinn, do you take this beautiful woman, Miss Chloe Garland, as your lawfully wedded wife? To honor her, cherish her, respect and protect her, in wealth or poverty, in sickness and in health, remaining faithful and loving till death do you part?" The host was going full-on dramatic, voice echoing through the ballroom.

Then the man, Matthew Quinn, gave a crooked smile and said, "Sorry, didn't catch that. Mind repeating?"

The host was using a loud mic. No way he didn't hear. The playful look on Matthew's face made the whole place tense up. Awkward silence spread like wildfire.

The host glanced down, clearly panicking, sweat starting to bead.

He stammered, voice shaky this time: "Mr. Quinn, do you...?"

Suddenly, soft footsteps sounded from the entrance.

Serena slapped a hand over her mouth to keep quiet and scrambled up, trying to sneak off again. But the dress, that stupid long gown, tangled up underneath her.

Before she could steady herself, she tripped.

And tumbled right out onto the stage.

Everything stopped.

Eyes wide, mouth agape, the host stared at the girl now sitting on the floor in a wedding gown. Every single head in the room turned toward Serena.

Dead silence.

And then it hit her - she'd seriously messed up.

She tried to stand, but pain shot through her ankle. Damn, she must've twisted it.

All she could do was sit there awkwardly and laugh. "Haha... whoops, wrong venue."

The host jumped in fast, trying to save the moment. "Ah yes, so many weddings today! A little mix-up, folks. Let's carry on. Mr. Quinn, do you-"

"I don't." A cold voice rang out behind Serena. The same man who'd been smirking before was now all frost, no emotion in sight.

The crowd gasped.

"Matthew..." the bride called out, sounding desperate and helpless.

Serena was desperately trying to get back up and sneak away. Her heart was pounding - crap, crap, crap. She really stepped in it now.

"I want to marry her."

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.

The rain in Detroit was slick with grime when my family finally came to fetch me. They didn't want a reunion; they wanted a sacrificial lamb to marry into the Kaufman empire to save their failing business. I thought I was just being sold off, but the limo ride ended under a dark overpass where six hired thugs were waiting with chains. My own sister had ordered them to "break my spirit" so I’d be a shaking, pathetic mess by the time I reached the altar. They called me "Detroit trash" and sprayed air freshener when I sat on their leather seats. My stepmother wanted a video of me begging for my life, and my father was ready to trade me like a used car to a man everyone called a "vegetable." They expected a submissive country girl, unaware that I was a high-level "cleaner" who could snap a radius bone before they could even scream. When I finally reached the Kaufman estate, I found my fiancé, Barron, slumped in a wheelchair, drooling and silent. But as soon as the doors closed, the "invalid" grabbed my wrist with a grip of iron and whispered a command that changed everything. I didn't understand why my own blood was so desperate to see me destroyed. What had I ever done to deserve a hit squad and a forced marriage to a man they thought was a corpse? But Barron isn't a vegetable, and I'm not a victim. We just touched down at the Moon family gala in a matte-black helicopter, and as the doors slide open, the "broken" bride is about to show them exactly what happens when you throw away the wrong daughter. "If we're going to crash a party," Barron whispered, his eyes burning with lethal clarity, "we should make an entrance."
