Chapter 12Ashley glanced at Miles for the umpteenth time as he drove them down the road. Even though she desperately wanted to mind her business and not ask about the money, her curiosity wouldn't stop kicking in, and she knew she would be disturbed and curious for as long as she kept it to herself."Are you ok?" Miles glanced at her and asked when he saw how uncomfortable she was, and she finally seized the opportunity to ask her question."I'm just curious. Miles... Where did you get that kind of money from?" She asked him out of the blue moon, and he matched the brake, bringing the car to an abrupt halt at the side of the road where many vehicles were passing by. "Uhm... The money?" Miles bit his inner bottom lip, trying to think of something convincing enough because he couldn't just reveal his identity to her like that. It wouldn't make any sense, and she wouldn't even believe him because even he would find it difficult to believe if someone ever said something of such to him.

Chapter 13Miles breathed out in relief once he stepped out of the class. The lecture was finally over, and he could finally go back home since he had been looking forward to the time the class would be over.He walked briskly down the walkway and made his way straight to the parking lot, and when he arrived there, he hopped inside his car and the ride back home began.As Miles rode through the dark yet busy road, his new phone beeped and a text from Ashley popped on the screen. 'Why are you taking so long, Miles?' He read through the text after he pulled over at the side of the road. He replied to her and told her he was on his way back to the dormitory. After he dropped his phone on the seat beside him, he started the car and drove off.The ride back to the dorm took less than ten minutes, and when he arrived, he pulled over neatly at the spot where he usually parked his car. Furthermore, he proceeded toward the building.Miles arrived at the front of their apartment and pushed the

Chapter 14'Why don't you be a man and stop this while I'm being nice, huh?' Miles dropped another comment. He couldn't just fold his arms and watch someone bash his friend like that, right?'Or else? What are you going to do? Are you going to beat me up?''I see you are a new user. I guess you are just using this for the first time' Came another couple of comments from the same person, and Miles huffed.'This is crazy and immature. You can't just come into someone's live and bash her like that''This man must be an asshole. Why would he talk to a woman like that? I guess he was not brought up well by his Mom. If not, he wouldn't talk to a woman like that''All these social media influencers are worse than Jezebels. Who knows, maybe she really slept with many men to keep her career going. People and doing things desperately just to get what they want''That's not fair to say to your fellow woman. It's her life, and besides, everyone is doing what they can to survive. If she is really

Chapter 15"Why is he not dropping a comment again?" Miles mumbled as he scrolled through his phone. Although comments from many users were still coming in, commending him for a job well done, but he was concerned about the man's comment and wanted to see it."Maybe he gave up," He concluded, and just when he was about to drop his phone, a comment from the man finally dropped.'You think I'm going to give up just like that? Never!' Came his comment.'Did our puppy go to borrow money to buy more gifts? I hope he doesn't end up in the police station after taking a loan''You should give up already. You can't afford anything again. It's obvious you are already broke''The next time you want to bash someone, be sure to be prepared financially so as if the same occurrence comes up again in the future' Many users bashed him.The man bought the fourth most expensive gift and sent it to Ashley.'I challenge you to beat me if you can' He dropped a follow-up comment with a few emojis smirking a

Chapter 16Miles's jaw dropped when he pulled the door open and saw Ashley standing with two bottles of wine in her hands and a smile plastered on her face."Ashley?" He called surprisingly and scanned her with his eyes briefly before he looked at her face."What are you doing here? It's late," Miles uttered after he glanced at the wall clock, but Ashley just shrugged and rolled her eyes."Can't I come to your room, hmm?" She scoffed and rolled her eyes again.Many thoughts ran through Miles's mind as he stared at her. Did she find out that the person was him? Was she there to question him about his wealth again? He asked himself curiously, but his thoughts were disrupted by Ashley's voice."Of course, you can... Do you want to come inside?" He asked even though he didn't want her to go inside his room."I'm excited," A smile laced up her lips as she leaned against the door, and he raised his eyebrows."Why? Did you win a lottery?" Miles asked even though he knew why she was excited.

Chapter 17Miles felt his throat dry all of a sudden, his heart thumped heavily against his chest as he stared into her eyes. Slowly, his eyes diverted to her sexy lips which were pouted sexily, and for a moment, he was tempted to have a taste of them. He swallowed the lump that formed in his throat and bit his bottom lip, trying everything to resist this crazy urge in him. She was sexy, and he couldn't deny that he was moved by her body, he couldn't deny the crazy thoughts that crossed his mind."You have a fiancee already, Miles," He reminded himself, and quickly turned his face away. His body trembled as he quickly reached for the glass he had dropped on the center table. He poured some wine into it and drank everything in one shot. He put back the cup on the center table."Why are you not saying anything? I've been turned down by many guys in the past saying I was not their type of woman. Are you going to turn me down too?" Pain was written all over Ashley's face as she stared at

Chapter 18Miles fell silent, not knowing what to say. For the next few seconds, he just held the phone to his ear unbelievably. This was the last thing he had expected from Jess. At least not after barely three days that they broke up."Miles, please help me. They are going to hurt me if I don't pay this money. You are the only one I can run to now," Jess's teary voice sounded from the other end, and he briefly sighed. "Are you still there since yesterday?" He had to ask her, a bit confused. Even though the wine Leo manipulated for him was expensive, he had thought that maybe they'd found their way out of it."I know we were wrong. We shouldn't have done that to you... Please don't punish me this way. Help me out," She cried out, her voice sounding frightened."Leo... He left me here. He said he was going to the restroom but left me here to sort things out, and they are not letting me go. I'm trying to reach him but it's not going through. Please help me, just this once," Once again

Chapter 19"Did you forget something, Sir?" Mr. Collins quickly stood up to his feet and asked Miles respectfully."No, I didn't. I will settle her bill," Miles replied to Collins as he took out his new phone."Your account details," Miles asked Mr. Collins, and Jess rolled her eyes. Even in this situation, she couldn't help but look down on Miles. Was he trying to brag about money now? Jess scoffed silently, looking forward to getting the hell out of this place.After Miles settled everything, he turned to Collins and asked, "Can I take her away now?""Sure, Sir. You can," Mr. Collins replied to him politely, so he turned to Jess and signaled her to stand up.Jess stood up from the floor and dusted specks of dust on her body, arranged her hair, and rolled her eyes at Mr. Collins."Can I have my phone now?" She demanded rudely, and Mr. Collins handed her the phone.She hissed loudly and sauntered out of the restaurant without even waiting for Miles."Thank you, sir," Mr. Collins said

Miles stepped out of the car that had just driven into the big compound of the mansion standing in front of him. The house was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, and he was even awed by the number of cars parked in the garage. Even though he wanted to take his time to admire the place and check out what it looked like, he wasn't so settled to do that."This way, please," Bryant gestured toward the entrance door and started walking toward it immediately, so Ethan followed him, counting his steps nervously. His jaw dropped when he walked into the living room which looked like another planet on its own, but he was soon distracted by the number of men in black suits queued in the living room. Something he was just noticing."Welcome home, master," Again, they all stood up and bowed to him just like how those people did back at the prison."Wait here while I go call our boss," Bryant uttered and was about to walk away when a deep baritone voice sounded along the stairs."I've been

Miles sat on the cold floor, gazing into space as he shivered from the cold piercing through his bones. His body felt stiffened, but he knew he had to hang in there. He needed to. He couldn't just give up at this point in his life.'You are not the father of my child' Those words have been living rent-free in his head for the past two days since he has been here, wishing that it was a dream. He wished someone would tap him to wake up and maybe tell him that it was all a nightmare. 'How did I get here? How did everything suddenly go wrong? Why did she do it?' he asked himself as he hugged his knees to his chest, but his only crime was being poor. His only crime was not being able to afford the luxurious life she wanted, but he did his best. Until two days ago, he had done everything in his power to give her all the happiness she wanted. He tried to provide for her with the little he had, and all he wanted was to have a happy life together as one big family with the kids they would hav

Chapter 51"Why am I getting dressed?" Sonia paused and asked herself as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. It's not that she was going to see him for the first time. She didn't even get this excited the first time she was going to meet him, so what was this about?"Ugh! Forget it," She rolled her eyes and continued what she was doing, regardless.Sonia was soon getting dressed, so she left her room. She was impressed when she walked inside the living room and the sweet aroma coming from the kitchen welcomed her."I trust your cooking so well... The aroma is everything," She closed her eyes and breathed in after she walked inside the dining room where she met Amelie setting the table."Whatever! The food is all ready now," Amelie announced as if she didn't see that the table was already set."But wait... Why are you all dressed up, girl?" Amelie was forced to ask after she scanned her with her eyes."I just got married, so I should look good," Was the only excuse she gave Ame

Chapter 50"Are you kidding me? You really got married to that dude?" Amelie, Sonia's best friend shrieked as she held the certificate in her hand with her eyes narrowed in shock."Are you out of your mind, Sonia? I mean, how can you get married to that dude? He looked like a student and he is not even...""Can you quit ranting, Amelie? You are going to make me sick if you keep being like this. Ugh! I feel like passing out," Sonia whined as she rubbed her fingers gently on her forehead while closing her eyes."It just doesn't make any sense to me, Sonia. You need to think about this again. You can't be married to that dude," Amelie insisted, and she sighed."What is there to think about again, Amelie? We are already married," Sonia just shrugged and rolled her eyes."It's not something to worry about, Amelie. I will handle things, ok? We are just married because of..." Sonia paused and briefly sighed. She didn't want to tell not even her best friend that her marriage was just an arrang

Chapter 49Miles stepped out of the car that had just pulled over in front of the city hall. It was the day he was supposed to get married to Sonia and also inherit the fortune. All he needed was just to get the marriage certificate and sign the contract with Mr. Ace later in the day, and everything would finally become his.The sound of his ringing phone pulled his attention as he walked toward the entrance door, and when he saw that it was Sonia, he quickly swiped the answer button."Hey!""Hey, Miles... I'm sorry, something came up here and I'll be delayed a bit. Can you wait for me, please?" Her innocent voice sounded from the other end."Sure, I will," At that moment although Miles knew that this marriage was just an arranged one, still, he didn't want anything else more than to get married to Sonia. She was everything he ever wanted in a woman.The call ended and he sighed. Miles walked over to sit at the corner of the city hall, waiting for his soon-to-be wife while imagining wh

Chapter 48Sonia glanced at Miles for the umpteenth time on their way home and she couldn't help but feel grateful for coming to her rescue. Maybe those bad guys would've harmed her if he had not shown up."Thank you," She muttered as she glanced at him, and he hummed as he nodded. Since she was still shocked by what happened earlier, Miles decided to drive her instead after he helped her fix the car.The ride to Sonia's apartment didn't take much time before they arrived, and Miles stepped out of the car after she did."You should sleep early. I'll be busy tomorrow so we might not get to see each other," Miles handed her the car keys, but she glanced at her wristwatch and turned her attention back to him."It's late. Why don't you sleep over? I have two rooms. You can make use of one of them...""Don't worry about...""Your house is still far from here and it's going to be difficult to get a cab at this time of the night. So, I insist," She insisted and he was eventually left with no

Chapter 47"Thanks for earlier," Sonia muttered as she glanced over to Miles on their way home."Hmm," Miles just nodded and looked out through the window. He had a lot of things to ask her which were not limited to her family, but they were not legally married yet, so he didn't have any right to ask her. At least not just yet."Why don't we go to the city hall for the marriage certificate next tomorrow? I have time then and I think it'll be perfect," Sonia suggested, getting Miles's attention."Hmm... That's fine," He nodded and she forced a smile.Sonia pulled over in front of Miles's dorm minutes later, and he removed the seatbelt from his body."See you around," Miles was going to open the door when she spoke up."Why don't you come over to my house tomorrow? I think you should know my house since we'll be getting married soon," Sonia suggested and he thought about it for a few seconds before he nodded."That's fine,""I will send you my address," He nodded and finally stepped out

Chapter 46"What are you talking about?" Mr. Frost hesitated for a few minutes before he finally asked.Over the years, Sonia had been pretending not to know everything that happened years ago. How her Dad had been spending the money that her Mom worked hard for.Mr. Frost was just a delivery guy who found favor in the eyes of the billionaire heiress, Claudia Ramos. They dated for a few months before they got married, and Frost automatically inherited her wealth because of the love Claudia had for him. A few years after the death of Sonia's Mom, her Mom's assistant had reached out to her from where he was hiding and told her about everything that happened but the death of her Mom remained mysterious. For years, she had been deprived of her mom's wealth, she was fine with it, but now she couldn't fold her arms and watch her Dad give it to his other daughter. That was the last thing she'd ever allow."We both know what I'm talking about, Dad... Do you think I will fold my arms and watc

Chapter 45"Why don't you stop with the pretense, Dad? We both know that you don't care about me," Sonia scoffed as she stood up from the couch, and Miles did too. "You! How could you be rude to Dad in the presence of a stranger?" Harley stepped forward and snapped at Sonia."Dad...""Your sister is just under the weather. You shouldn't be like that to her," Mr. Frost, their Dad forced a smile."You called me here to attend Harley's birthday dinner party..." She huffed as she crossed her arms on her chest and rolled her eyes."What game are you trying to play this time, Dad?""Sonia... I only called you here so we can get to know your fiance. Besides, it's family time together, so I was thinking you shouldn't be left out. Don't you think?" Seeing the smile on the man's face made Sonia's skin crawl with disgust. She tried to fight back her tears even though it was difficult to. Her heart was breaking into a million shreds. It's fine that he didn't like her and not that he was complain
