A Coincidental Marriage 1
Beep Beep Beep.Ugh, I groaned in annoyance. Why now? I reached for my phone and switched it off, then went back to sleep. Well, I tried to, but then I remembered my mom would be furious if I missed breakfast—apparently, she hates it when people don't follow her rules.I forced myself to get out of my bed and prepared myself for breakfast, both physically and emotionally. I left my room and went downstairs. I found they had already settled. I ignored the other eyes, looking at me, and sat down on the other side of the table. I was about to start eating when my mom spoke up, completely ruining my appetite. She just had to do this in the morning."She finally woke up. I completely forgot you were joining us for breakfast, so I didn't include you," she gave me a bitter smile."Oh, okay. I will go get something to eat then," I pushed the plate forward."Of course, you go do just that. Apparently, it's the only thing you are good at," she rolled her eyes."Not today, Mom. Please, can't we

The moment I saw Mrs. Williams' car, I decided to go visit my boyfriend to avoid arguing with her. Come to think of it, we haven't spent much time together. He's been busy lately, and I didn't want to bother him or anything. Sometimes, I would sleepover at his place or Emily's when my mom and I argued.David and I have been dating for the past two years, but we haven't been spending much time together because he's been very busy lately. Ever since his dad made him CEO, things haven't been the same.I arrived at his penthouse; the guards let me in, but they didn't look me in the eye as I said hi. They looked worried and concerned instead. Something is wrong, but I will ask them on my way out.The moment the door opened, my breath hitched for a second. What is she doing here? How could he do this to me? I looked at the blonde right in front of me, who was none other than my sister. Why is she wearing his shirt? He never allowed me to put on his shirt. If I put it on without his consent,

:Three days, and for three days, I've been looking for a job, but I couldn't find one. Well, I did find one at first, but I was fired on the first day because my caring sister decided to cause trouble. I just don't know what's wrong with that girl. Because I lost my job, Mrs. Williams wouldn't stop talking about it, but I won't give them a chance to rule my life. I really don't know what to do, but I know one thing for sure—I won't give up. I will keep on trying."Ugggh, why is it so damn hard to find a job?" I left my room and went to the kitchen. I looked around just to make sure none of my family members were home. I don't want to talk to them. I sat down on the kitchen bar stools, trying to decide what I was going to have for breakfast, then my stupid brother showed up, and my appetite flew out the window. I mentally rolled my eyes and decided to leave before he opens his mouth and says something stupid."Victoria, just stop pretending and accept the fact that you're nothing with

:"What do you mean we got married?" I asked him, my voice raising a bit."I don't like repeating myself. All I know is that we are in this mess because of you," he glared at me as he clenched his jaw."Look, Mister, I don't know what you are talking about, but all I know is that I came here to audition as a runaway bride, so stop with this nonsense." Oh no, how could I be so stupid and dumb? All those preparations, the guests... I should have known it was a real wedding. How did I get myself in such a mess, and how am I going to get out of this mess?I got married. I came here hoping to find a job, but I got married instead. No, no, this can't be. I turned and ran to the changing room; thankfully, he didn't call me or run after me.I changed back into my clothes and stood there, staring at myself in the mirror. I looked at my hand, and there it was - the one thing and evidence that reminded me what happened a few hours ago. I picked up my clutch and left.I arrived home and went stra

I thought he didn't remember me. Was he pretending? I really can't talk to him now."Talk about what?" I asked him, turning to face him and creating some distance between us."Don't tell me you've already forgotten we got married when you thought you were auditioning," he said, glaring at me with a clenched jaw.I know you, and I'm just trying to avoid this awkward conversation right now. "Oh, I had forgotten about that," I flashed him a nervous smile.He narrowed his eyes at me as he towered over me, "Well, I'm glad you remember. We need to talk," he said in a stern tone."About what?" he looked at me like I was crazy."We should talk about, I don't know, when we are going for our photoshoot," I rolled my eyes. "Okay, okay, I get it. So please don't bother with your sarcastic comments. Can I go now?"He sighed and put his hands in his pockets. "I just told you we need to talk.""We can always talk later, but not today. Please, I have to go to my friends," I told him before I left hi

"Are you crazy? You just can't take me with you to meet your parents!" I yelled as I tried to release my hand from his tight grip."Don't make a scene, okay? Let's leave from here," he said in a casual tone, like it wasn't a big deal. But it was to me. Is he crazy or something?"Or what? Look, I don't care if you are Alexander Romano, but I am not going anywhere with you, and I mean it. So just leave me alone."He let go of my hand and looked at his car. "Are you sure that you are not going anywhere?""I'm sure, Mr. Romano. You know what? I will go back inside," I said firmly, and he nodded. I narrowed my eyes and turned as I made my way back inside. Something is fishy; why didn't he grab my hand or stop me? He just let me go like that. Anyway, I don't care as long as I don't get to meet his parents.Once I got inside, I joined the girls who were busy making plans for tomorrow. Charlotte looked at me with a smirk on her face, "Oh hey, Alexandria, I forgot that you came since you keep

"What am I going to do, and why are my parents here?" My legs were frozen in place. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'll just make up an excuse and leave from here. It should be better that way.I have to leave from here before they see me. Until I heard my sister's voice, my legs seemed to have a mind of their own as they stayed rooted in their place."Alexander, it's so nice to meet you. I can't believe you are right in front of me," she said in her annoying, high-pitched voice.He just gave her a slight nod and didn't say a word to her. Not that I'm jealous, it's far from that, just happy that he didn't give her the attention he wanted."I'm glad you're here, Mr. Williams. You are just in time to meet my son's beautiful wife," Mr. Romano said in a confident voice. I leaned against the wall, trying to figure out what to do. I can't meet my parents; they don't even know that we are married, not that they would care, but I just can't.My dad looked at Charlotte, who had a fake smil

"You are not alone, Mrs. Romano," I'm just saying it again in case you didn't hear me.I wiped my tears and took in a deep breath, turning to face him. "Are you spying on me?"He chuckled and shook his head. "Why in the world would I spy on my wife? That's ridiculous," he said in a casual tone."I don't know, you tell me," I shrugged my shoulders. His eyes landed on my bag, and I knew he was going to ask me about it."I don't mean to meddle in your business, but where are you going to stay, and most importantly, why did they allow you to leave the house late at night? I think it would have been better if they let you leave in the morning."I averted my gaze from him. "It's nothing, and I have a place I'm going to," I said rather confidently."Is that so? Well, I don't mind dropping you wherever it is you are going.""No, I will be fine on my own," I said in a stern tone.He nodded and opened his car door. "Okay, if you say so. Sadly, I have to go. I have to attend this important dinne
