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

Chapter 20Jess glanced at Miles for the fifth time on their way and rolled her eyes. Why was he so persistent to sleep with her? Was he still in love with her? She asked herself a series of questions, and after a thorough thought, she couldn't help but conclude that Miles must still have feelings for her. That could be the only reason he was being like this.Seeing the smirk on Miles's face, Jess thought to herself that maybe he was thinking of what they were going to do and probably excited that he was finally going to have sex with her. Besides, they had been together for two good years and he'd never seen her nakedness, not even for once.Meanwhile, Miles couldn't help himself but smirk as the thought of what he would do to her later kept playing in his head. He had big plans for her. A bit plan that'd leave her hating herself for the rest of her life. A big plan that'd left her wishing they never crossed paths all her life."We are here," The cab man announced as he pulled over i

Chapter 21Miles strode elegantly down the walkway as he scrolled through his phone, and when he finally found the number he had been searching for, he dialed it and held the phone to his ear."Yes, boss," A masculine voice sounded from the other end."I need you to find details about someone for me. I don't have much time, so make sure you send it soon. I will send you what you need immediately," Miles said on the phone as he stepped into the lobby."Yes, boss," Came the voice again, and Miles finally disconnected the call.Miles stepped out of the hotel, walked over to the side of the road where he hauled down a cab, and the ride to school began.Miles scrolled through the profile of the man who had abused Ashley on her live video the previous day, and although he couldn't get as much information as he needed, he believed that the little he could lay his hands on would be enough to get that bastard. He sent the profile to Mr. Ace, the man he had called earlier.'On it, boss. I will

Chapter 22A small smile played on Miles's face as he stood in the school garden. Even though it was annoying getting bullied by that bastard earlier, he was glad he gave him a piece of his mind.Miles took a deep breath, taking in the fragrance of the beautiful flowers, and it felt so good. His life had taken another turn, and he couldn't be more than grateful to his creator for turning his life around in this manner that was still shocking even until now.'Arranged marriage' As those words replayed in Miles's head, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of person his arranged bride was. Was she kind? Was she a hoe like Jess? Those were the questions he asked himself, but then, not that he had a choice even though she turned out to be that kind of a person."Don't be so curious, Miles. You'll see her when you two meet," He told himself and breathed out briefly.The sound of his ringing phone caught his attention, and he quickly swiped the answer button when he saw that it was Mr. Ace

Chapter 23"Boss... You are here?" James, a young man in his early forties quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Mr. Mario. Miles stared at James, and he had to admit that he was better looking than he was in the photo that was sent to him although not that handsome, and not that he was concerned about that. James was a 5'8ft tall man with a masculine body, raven curly hair, a pair of blue dangerous eyes, a pointed nose, and a round face. Not that he was so handsome, he just looked better than the picture that was sent to him earlier."Hmm," Mr. Mario just nodded and proceeded toward the empty space remaining in the room with Miles trailing beside him."It's nice to meet you again, Mr. Mario. I've been waiting for you for hours," A man in his late forties said to Mario with a smile displayed on his lips."Hmm. I'm here now," Mario replied to him as he sat on the chair that was reserved for him."Who is this? Did you hire a new errand boy?" James asked after he gave Miles

Chapter 24Miles took the glass close to his mouth but paused abruptly and closed his eyes. All eyes fell on him as they awaited the stunt he was about to pull since it seemed like the ones he had been pulling were not enough yet."I changed my mind. The water is not chilled enough," Miles uttered as he dropped the glass cup on the table, and James clenched his fingers tightly as waves of anger spurred through him. For a moment, he felt like strangling Miles, but who was he to act in front of Mr. Mario when it already seemed like he was on Miles's side?"Why is the atmosphere so tense?" Miles asked out of the blue moon as he looked around even though he knew why the sudden tension. "Why don't you make it lively? You've not introduced yourself to us yet. We could discuss afterward," The man from earlier who had come for a business meeting with Mr. Mario spoke up. No matter the angle he looked at this from, there seemed to be something hidden. He was sure that Miles might be someone im

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
