Chapter 4

  • Raymond POV:-
  • After giving the beautiful news to Violet to which she ran away upon hearing, I left with saying, "It's a pleasure to meet you Ma'am." I was about to leave but then I remembered and turned to her again, "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you one thing."
  • "What is it?" Mrs Cadhill asked.
  • "Well... There is going to be a press conference the day after tomorrow, can Violet join it?"
  • "I am sorry, but she doesn't like these things."
  • "I understand. Then tell her to watch it. She needs to knows to answer which question and when." I explained
  • "I see. I'll tell her." She nodded.
  • "Okay..Good Day Ma'am." I left knowing Violet must be fuming with anger by now but it's the longest her mother can make me go, I gave her the time of the limit of my patience, I cannot wait longer than three weeks. I don't like waiting.
  • 2 Day Later
  • I was sitting in the conference hall being held in my own house. I need to think of the answers that satisfy both my sister and the media. The conference starts and people start asking questions,
  • "When do you meet?"
  • "Almost 3 years ago" Lying in a swift manner is a trait of mine.
  • "How do you meet?"
  • "I went to buy some sweets for my sister, there I saw her." Now that's the truth.
  • "When did you realize your feelings?"
  • "It was a love at first sight."
  • "When you confessed to her?"
  • "1 year after meeting her."
  • "What do you like the most about her?"
  • "The way she talks"
  • "Why isn't she here?"
  • "She doesn't like press conferences, she's pretty shy."
  • After a while, and a flood of questions, it ended. As soon as it ended Celine called me,
  • "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" She yelled, almost making me deaf.
  • "She doesn't want to." I lied again.
  • "Oh!I see.... BY THE WAY I AM COMING TO SEE MY SISTER IN LAW!" She yelled again.
  • "Stop yelling! I can hear you just fine." I said agitated. How can she be so cheery and loud all the time?
  • "Oh sorry I just got so excited, hehehe. Oh my God, You are getting married. Yay!" She is so enthusiastic.
  • "Okay then, When are you coming?" I asked
  • "Maybe tomorrow..."
  • "I see.."
  • "OKAY! SEE YOU!"
  • "See You." I cut the call.
  • Violet POV:-
  • How dare he!? I am shy!? Like hell! I am so infuriated right now. I just want to punch that shit. He thinks he can twist reality as if it's a clay the way he wants. Telling nothing but lies. How dare he- Wait a minute, outside a bakery... Bakery... The guy I met on Mum's birthday. The guy I bumped into and my cake fell. It was him!? Oh god, How fate can be so cruel? I was extremely rude with him, how could he feel attracted to me in a few seconds? It has to be a lie. A moment of anger and coincidence cannot decide my future like this.
  • I gritted my teeth.
  • Not just that my brother was so happy when he heard that i am getting married. As for me I am anything but happy about it. I don't know what to do anymore.
  • 2 Days later
  • I was laying on my bed because of the news of me getting married. No ,the news of Raymond Smith getting married spread around the world like a rapid fire.Thanks goodness no one knew about me and he didn't even tell anyone as well. But still people who knew, they started nagging me. How am I supposed to tell them about the person even I don't know?
  • Urgh!
  • My thoughts were interrupted as my mum entered the room.
  • "Honey..." She began to say.
  • "Yes mum?" I said sitting up.
  • "His sister is dying to meet you. They are coming over for dinner tonight..."
  • "What!?" I asked hoping that she would change her statement but no.
  • "Yes dear... be ready.."
  • "I won't," I declared.
  • She sighed and start again
  • "Listen. His sister doesn't know about him forcing you to marry him. She also believes that media story."
  • "So?" I don't know where this is going.
  • "So .. he requested you to act as a couple just for today.."
  • "No way in hell!"
  • "I told him that you won't. So don't worry about it." I smiled at my mother. She knows me. My mother always does this, Telling me after doing things.
  • "Oh mum..." I chuckled. He is even deceiving her sister.
  • Dinner time
  • I was watching TV with Kenneth,mum called us. Me and Kenneth looked back and saw Raymond with his sister. Raymond was glaring at me. I gulped from fear as his eyes were sending daggers towards me, knowing all too well I went against his orders- why would I anyways? Both me and Kenneth stood up .Kenneth greeted Raymond politely.
  • Raymond POV:-
  • I took Celine to meet my beloved wife at her home for today's dinner. Even though I told her mother to get her ready but still she didn't listen to her. I saw her wearing her casual shirt with a trouser. I glared at her as she stiffened seeing me. Why does she always choose the hard way? Celine ran toward her and hugged her as her brother come toward me,
  • "Hello Nice to Meet you, Sir."He said politely. Even her brother has more manners, unlike her.
  • "Hey There. What's your name young man?"I asked him, even though I know his name is Kenneth.
  • "Kenneth Cadhill. Please take care of my Sister." He said sincerely.
  • "I will." I also replied sincerely, but I am also not going to hesitate to teach her some manners.
  • Meanwhile my sister was killing my future wife with her hug. I cleared my throat as she let her go and began to yell as always,
  • "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! BROTHER IS GETTING MARRIED! I LOVE YOUR SIMPLICITY! YOU'RE PERFECT FOR HIM!! YOU TOO LOOK CUTE TOGETHER!!"
  • "Lower your voice Celine she can hear you just fine" I told her, but she goes on rambling,
  • "Brother didn't even tell me. But still I am happy for both of you! I hope you guys live HAPPILY EVER AFTER! !I AM SO HAPPY!!"
  • "Nice to meet you too," Violet said to her with a smile, giving Celine a weird look.
  • After that we all went to have dinner as I smirked at Violet who glared at me, I spoke up again,
  • "What Happened Violet? Do you want to talk about something?"
  • "I want to." She said nonchalantly, hitting my nerves.
  • "Can you come over at our place?" Celine asked.
  • "No.She can't." her mother said.
  • "Why?"Celine asked again.
  • "Celine If Ma'am has said that she won't, then she wont. Got it?" I told her strictly.
  • "Okay.." She said with a pout. Oh don't worry sister she is gonna live with Your Brother forever...
  • After dinner, Me and Violet went to the rooftop as Celine, being a 20 year old kid began to play video games with that 15 year old Kenneth.
  • When we went to the rooftop, Violet began to yell at me,
  • "Who do you think you are?! We met two years ago, love at first sight!? You are an asshole keeping people in a deception. I rather die than to be with you!" I hate how she emphasized on the word You. It made me mad. Yes, I am a heartless bastard. Not making others around me but myself to live in falsehood.
  • "Violet. Lower your voice." I ordered her in a stern voice. Disobey me this time and I shall show you what comes next. I am not kind enough to let go of things a second time.
  • Suddenly she gasped at me with fear. My voice invoked fright in her. Good. But her, being a fearless woman, she took a deep breath and spoke up again.
  • "Look... I hate you from the depth of my soul, being with you is like a nightmare. Don't destroy both mine and your life. I will never love you." She lowered her voice but her words hurt me. But mostly, it enraged me.
