Lara was summoned to the Corporal's house to check on Rossie. She just got the call and she immediately went. It has been a while since they saw each other and she heard that she has been kidnapped. And now she stands next to the Corporals waiting for Rossie to arrive with Jared and the others.The moment they see the cars, they all felt relieved and when they were finally in front and the doors opened, revealing those who went, the ladies cried. But what alarmed them was the fact that Rossie was unconscious, looking all pale, and worry was written all over Jared's face.Jared was assisted in getting the doors and they followed to the nearest room. Lara's kit was already there, and every apparatus she needed was ready in the nearest bedroom. Then she asked everyone out because she was also going to clean Rossie.When she was finally alone, she did her things and checked Rossie. The lady has weakened quite fast so she needed to insert some IV tubes because she was also dehydrated. She
The wedding bells just rang and the newlyweds came out of the church doors. Ellisa was looking so beautiful in her wedding gown and she looks as happy as I was in mine. Well, thanks to my best friend I got married so unexpectedly and fell in love with someone who set me free from a toxic manipulated relationship. I had to through a lot just to witness this moment with the love of my life and four-year-old holding mine and Jared's hand. His name is Caleb and no we didn't decide on that, Veronica did. She said it was the perfect name for the kid. Jared and I got married after the tradition was finally cut off with the help of Derek and Lily Adler. It was also unprecedented but he is now engaged to Stephanie Montreal. For some reason, Derek gave me Kenneth and now Caleb and he are best friends. Keille and Prim are busy studying and they seemed to be very compatible with each other. Whatever my sister chooses, I will always support her as how she has supported me through my ups and dow
Prologue “You may now kiss the bride!” Yes, I hear them say after I put my signature on the damn paper. But wait, why is my boyfriend looking so different tonight? “Go on! Kiss the bride!” the people around us all cheered up. Before I could get a better glimpse of the man standing in front of me, he moved his face in, and all I could ever taste was his hot lips moving in sync with mine. It felt so good that I could not hear anybody else’s voice. Then he moved away and I stare at his marble-blue eyes. It made me frown from the fact that Jake doesn’t have blue eyes, he has brown ones! This realization hit me and I pushed the man away. I look around and it occurred to me that we were in a chapel down who knows where! “What’s wrong, Rossie?” asked one of my friends or so I think. I shift my gaze back to the man I just kissed and he had a soft look on his face. “I…” I couldn’t say the words. What am I doing here? I asked myself. “Rossie, what’s up?” another one asked. “I must be
Instead of sleeping, Rossie used her time googling up the name of the man she married. There was nothing online; no information about the name on the paper! How is she supposed to find him now to file a divorce? There were so many questions in her head. How did it even become real? How was she going to divorce this guy? Is that why he appeared so suddenly last night and called her wife? Did his letter come faster than hers? She massages her temples from all of her unanswered questions. For a day, she let it go and decided to keep it cool for her sister’s birthday. Smiling and entertaining relatives and guests were a must to her but her mind couldn’t help but take her back to her marriage certificate whenever she sees rings. When finally the party was over, she calls her best friend Ellisa. The girl was eating her lunch at work, giving her that weird look that says, “look at you in bed all comfy” which made Rossi roll her eyes. “What are you calling about? Shouldn’t you be sleeping
“Yo! It’s Ellisa. I ran out of data so I burrowed Cassey’s but I can’t wait to tell you!” exclaimed Ellisa on the other line, making Rossie sigh in relief. That lasted for a moment and she realized what her best friend had said. “Tell me what?” she almost shouts. “I have some kind of lead but like it’s not official. You know Lucas, right? He said he knew the guy but he had a call-- irritating one so he had to cut me.” She rolls her eyes and that’s when Rossie realized that Ellisa was in the cubicle. Ellisa noticed her reaction. “Yes, bitch. I am sacrificing half of my break just to fucking tell you this stuff.” “Thank you! You’re a freakin’ lifesaver! If you ever want to swap a day, I’ll swap the days off!” “Oh stop! We have no information yet! Celebrate when you find your husband!” “He’s not my husband!” Rossie snorted, giving that disgusted look. “Shoot! I have to get back or TL will kill me! See ya later, missus!” “What the--” Rossie could not continue when the call just sud
“Of course, you can call me your hubby,” Jared grins giving her a glimpse and back on the road. He could imagine how surprised she could’ve looked.“Didn’t you hear what I said?” “Too loud, baby.”He hears her release a sharp breath. It somehow amused Jared how this repulsive wife of his behaves. From the moment they encounter at the bar, he should’ve known.“Baby? Listen I’m not supposed to be married! I have a boyfriend!”“Then you should’ve stayed at home,” he calmly said.Rossie smacks her lips in frustration, giving him the infamous rolled eyes while shaking her head lightly. They sure don’t quite get along.“What in the ‘it was an accident' don’t you understand?” she fires.“Why haven’t you filed one? You could’ve gone today.”“You’re making this difficult,” she mutters. “How long did you know we were married?”“Two weeks ago,” he replies.A sarcastic laugh echoed in the car, following his wife’s glare. He didn’t have to look at her, he could already feel the tension that someo
“Are you serious?” Ellisa asked so loudly that Rossie had to cover her best friend's mouth. They were at the pantry having lunch. And when her best friend slapped her arm she let go. “Bitch you rode with him?”“I had to! You know I could be damn dead if my parents saw me!”“No, you could’ve said that he is another friend!”“As if they’d let it go that fast!”Yeah, she remembers the last time when one of their guy co-workers gave her a ride. It took them months to get over it. The questions were ridiculous! It was like she was being interrogated for murdering 50 people.“Hell, I’d go through that again!” she exclaims at Ellisa.“But bitch, tell me what he looks like? I don’t remember!” There was excitement in Ellisa’s voice that made Rossie twitch up her upper lip in disappointment.“He looks normal to me. He’s cocky and a jerk.”Ellisa looks up, thinking about what her friend has spoken out of her mouth. She puts a hand over her chin. “If he’s cocky and a jerk… that means he is hella
I want to stay married. Jared's words echoed in Rossie's head. It took her three long minutes to react, opening her mouth and blinking in disbelief again. Did she hear it right? Or is her mind having thoughts of its own?"C-Come again?" she asked."I want to stay married," he repeated.So, she didn't mishear it. It was just hard for her brain to process the thought that Jared was making this more complicated for her. She breathes in and out. "Now why would you want to stay married?" She tries to be calm. "You know I have a boyfriend, right? I can't stay married to you!""I know but he doesn't need to know," he casually said.Why is it so easy for him? she asked in her head, feeling her blood boiling in her veins. This guy clearly didn't think this through."I am not that kind of girl!" She completely broke composure. "I am going to divorce you no matter what happens! I'm sure we'll see each other in court!" Rossie was about to open the car door but it was locked. She shifted her hea
