The Love That Passed 11- Sign and Register
Jared's POV Today, I am going to talk to mom about the wedding. Yesterday was a mess, and I didn't know what I would do if Stacey called again. I should refrain from coming to her every time she calls me. It's not good; even if I was just being forced into this marriage, I still need to respect Colleen. We were at the breakfast table, and mom was quiet. I was waiting for her to talk, but we were almost finished, and she wasn't even looking at me. “Mom,” I called her. “I am going to marry Colleen," I added, and she sighed. “You have to think about it. I didn't want Colleen to suffer,“ Mom said. I don't know how I should feel concerned; I was his son, but she was more concerned for Colleen than me. "Why would she suffer? Isn't it me who will suffer more?" I asked her. I was furious, but I held myself. I didn't want to argue with her anymore, especially when I found out that she had been sick. Mom looked at me and shook her head. Did I say something wrong? Am I really the one who is
The Love That Passed 12- Unexpected Visitor
Colleen's POV "Hi sister," Ingrid said as I answered her call. She sounded happy and excited, so I think she had good news. "You seemed happy," I told her. "Yes, because you're going to be my sister-in-law from now on," she replied. I was stunned for a moment. I never thought that this arranged marriage thing had not ended yet. "What do you mean?" I asked her. "Exactly what it means. Jared had agreed and already signed the papers. I am on my way to the civil registrar to register for your marriage," she replied excitedly. Well, I didn't think that Jared would actually agree to it, and last night, when he went to see me thinking I had hurt his girlfriend, I was 100% sure that he was not going to agree to this. "Hey, are you still there?" Ingrid asked. "Yes, I just didn't expect that he would actually agree," I replied. "Well, he did. I think he thought about it carefully and made this decision. You know that mom didn't want to force him either." She said, "So tell me when you're
The Love That Passed 13- Chance
Third Person's POV "I thought she was living there by herself," Lucy, Colleen's mom, said, talking to herself after she left Colleen's house. She was annoyed that she thought Diane, her new husband's daughter, would have a place to stay while studying for college in the city. Diane's tuition fee was beyond her budget, and renting her a house would be too much. She couldn't afford other expenses because Rick was not working anymore, and taking care of him and his kids wore her off. She remembered what Colleen looked like, and she felt a little worried about her. Hurting her was not her intention at all, but she was hurt after she heard what she said. "Yes, I left her. But I didn't know that her dad left her as well. If I found out about it, I would have taken her in, and Rick had no say about that." She told herself, looked back at Colleen's apartment, and started to think about how Colleen managed to survive all those years. She felt guilty when she remembered slapping her; she jus
The Love That Passed 14- Still Perfect
Third Person's POV Colleen moved into Jared's house after two days. She thought it was just a simple house that would only fit her and Jared. But to her surprise, it was a mansion. "Do you like the house?" Ingrid asked. "Well, it's huge. Now I know why Jared agreed to live with me. She said it unconsciously. "What do you mean?" Claire, who was sitting on the couch, asked her questions. I don't think we will be able to see each other when we live here. I mean, it's really huge. " She replied, which made Ingrid and Claire laugh. "You are really funny. Of course you will be seeing him; you will be sleeping in the same room, you silly. " Colleen's smile faded when Claire told her. "Why, didn't you like it?" Claire asked after she noticed that Colleen suddenly froze. "Well, I don't think Jared will agree to that," she replied, smiling. She was just being realistic. She knew that Jared didn't like this arrangement at all, so it was natural for her not to expect something like that. Sh

But because of Coleen, I will have to live in our old villa.It was beautiful, but my mom and dad's memories were there, and I didn't want to ruin them because of that woman. I can't even say her name.I came from work and I overheard them talking, so I got worried, thinking that a woman was threatening my mom, but mom immediately denied that.

Mom likes her, so they should be fine.Our bedroom was big; it was my mom and dad's room before. Thinking I had to share it with a woman, which I didn't know anything about, was unusual.

The Love That Passed 16- Married Life
Colleen's POV So, this is the moment. I followed him to our bedroom and saw him sitting on the couch, not too far from the bed, but I remained standing. It's not that I am being intimidated; I just didn't want him to think that I was starting to feel at home when I just moved in. "Why don't you sit?" He asked, so I sat on the couch adjacent to his and prepared my ears for everything that he wanted to tell me. "Just because we are married, it doesn't mean that I have to look after you. I will do whatever I want, and you can do whatever you want as well. I am not going to force you to be dutiful; I don't care about that," he said. I nodded my head so he'd know that I understood and waited for him to continue and tell me more about his conditions. "You will be receiving an allowance, but other than that, do not expect more." He continued, and I nodded my head again. "Everything you need in this house, I am going to ask Betty to buy it. So whatever it is that you want to learn, just do
The Love That Passed 17- End of Flashback
Colleen's POV I stayed at Jared's mansion and didn't leave my room if it wasn't necessary. It has been a week since we lived together; the maids arrived, and I didn't face any problems with him. It's funny. How are we going to face problems when we never see each other?As Jared's wife, I wake up early in the morning to prepare something for him for breakfast. I told Betty not to tell him about it because he may not eat it if he finds out that I was the one who made it. At night, I see to it that he has food to eat when he comes home. But he didn't eat it at all. In the morning, I prepare his clothes for work. At least I can do simple things for him, and it was up to him whether he would accept it or not.Doing my duty as his wife was difficult in the sense that he didn't like that I was doing it. I was hoping that he would just cooperate with me, not make any more demands, and be civil with each other. We can be friends, if not real lovers; after all, I didn't want to hurt him in the
