FORCED MARRIAGE 012
MARA Grandpa, why did you suddenly come here? Do you need anything?" "Oh, I'm sorry, Jay Jay, but while on our way here, I forgot why I went here." "Mara, do you know why Grandpa wanted to see me?" "No, Sir. He didn't tell me why he wanted to see you. He suddenly dragged me and said he wanted to see you because he had something important to tell you." "Sorry, Jay Jay, if I disturb your work for nothing. I'm sure it's important because I wouldn't be rushing here if it wasn't." "It's okay, Grandpa, just tell me once you remember." "Okay, next time I remember it, I will write it so that even though I forget it, I still have a record of it." "Okay, you do it, Grandpa. You can also write everything you did the whole day so that later on, you can read it." "Okay, I will do that." "Have you eaten lunch?" "No, because I wanted to see you. I'm sure it's vital, why did I forget it? "It's okay, Grandpa. I'm sure you'll remember it later. Come on, let's eat lunch together before you go
FORCED MARRIAGE 013
MARA I stood on top of the stairs, with my hands covering my mouth and tears streaming down my face, still shocked at what had happened. "What happened? I heard you scream." Sir Jayson rushed beside me. He looks like he just stepped out of the bathroom because his hair is still dripping. "Grand....grandpa!!! I cried, pointing down the stairs. He followed where I was pointing with his eyes, and his eyes widened. "Grandpa!!! He screamed and ran downstairs. The other helpers and Nana followed, all shocked at the scene in front of them. "Prepare the car." Sir Jayson screamed, then picked up Grandpa. "Dean, you carry Loren." Sir Jayson said and ran outside. I just stayed in my place, still shocked by what happened. How could she do this to Grandpa? Why does she want to kill him? *** I sat outside the operating room with Nana, Dean, and Sir Jayson. We've been here since two hours ago, but the doctor hasn't come out yet. My tears keep streaming down my face. I wonder why I still have
FORCED MARRIAGE 014
JAYSON I watched as Mara ran out of the door crying. For the first time in my life, I laid a hand on a woman, and it didn't settle inside me, especially since it was Mara, the girl I felt familiar with the first time I laid my eyes on her when she was still working at the diner near my office. She looked familiar, but I couldn't recall where I met her before. It seemed like I knew her way back, but no matter how I tried to recall who she was in my memories, I couldn't remember. Since I saw her, she has never left my mind. I always see her smile and the face I saw in my dreams. She always smiles and is very gentle and kind, especially to Grandpa. She takes care of Grandpa like her own grandfather. She quickly got Grandpa's affection, which didn't happen with his previous caregivers. Grandpa always distanced himself from his caregiver, but with Mara, it looks like he is with his granddaughter. He treated Mara how he treated me. He's so caring and protective of her and always looks
FORCED MARRIAGE 015
MARA I run out of Loren's room crying. No one laid a hand on me before. It was the first time, and it hurt so much because the person who did it was the person I never expected could hurt me. I always saw him as a gentle, kind, and caring person who would never hurt someone else—a person who I started to admire or maybe more. I was thrown on the ground when I bumped into someone, snapping me out of my thoughts. I cried more, and I stayed on the floor sobbing. "Are you alright, miss?" A male voice asked. I looked up, and a man was crouching, looking at me worriedly. "I'm so sorry, sir. I'm not looking where I am going. I whispered, wiping my tears. "It's okay. Come on, stand up," he said, held my arm, and pulled me up. "Thank you, sir. And I'm sorry again." I bowed my head at him and resumed walking. I went to the ICU where Grandpa was. I want to see him for the last time before I leave, and I'm hoping the doctor will let me see him. When I arrived at the ICU, I asked a nurse

JAYSON I'm sure she left the mansion already because she's the reason why Grandpa fell off the stairs," I said, fist-balling beside me. "What? Why? Sir Phil adored her so much that during my visit, there she was the only person he kept talking about. Jane asked, surprised. I am surprised, too, because I saw how close she is to Grandpa. "Maybe she just wants Grandpa to trust her so that she can do whatever reason why she took Grandpa to her home when Grandpa was lost. Maybe she has a hidden reason for doing it from the beginning. Maybe she lied about not knowing Grandpa the first time she met him." Loren said, who just woke up? I ponder her words, and she has a point. I quickly fist my phone from my pocket to cheek Grandpa's money in the bank. I check his bank statement, and my eyes widen to see a series of withdrawals he made. "Look at this." I showed my phone to Jane, and she was surprised as well. "Why does he have a lot of withdrawals? Where did he use all the money?" She a

Jayson My smile never left my lips. I left the room because a doctor came to check on Loren and took a specimen from her for a DNA test. Uncle already gives him, and he visits Grandpa and goes home to rest. He said he would come back when the DNA result came. I can't blame him if he was cold to Loren. He doesn't even hug her or talk to her except for one time when he warns her and tells her that he wants a DNA test. He was right when he said Loren doesn't have any similarities to Aunt Aria, maybe because she has already grown up. I'm sure his treatment of her will change once the DNA test results come back positive. I went to the ICU to visit Grandpa. I'm so excited to tell him that I found Ara. Grandpa adored Ara so much back then. He always bought and read books for her, and Ara would look at the picture in the book with wide eyes despite her still not knowing how to read. She is so sweet. She always hugs and kisses Grandpa and says, " I love you, Grandpa." She is very adorab
FORCED MARRIAGE 018
MARA The following morning, I received a text message from Cassy telling me that there was no necklace in my previous room, as well as Grandpa, so here I am now in front of the hospital. I went inside with my eyes, looking around, making sure that Sir Jayson, Nana, and Dean were not around. I first went to the information desk and asked where their lost and found bulletin board was. Someone might have seen my necklace and surrendered it to the hospital staff. I'm hoping so because that necklace is very important to me. I quickly went to the lost and found bulletin board when the hospital staff told me where it was. I was disappointed to see my necklace was not written there. "Where did I lose it? Maybe I dropped it somewhere when I was heading to Rina's 0lace." I sighed sadly, knowing the hope of finding my necklace would be zero. I sighed and made my way to the ICU, hoping that the nurse there would let me in, and Sir Jayson was not present. I gasped when I was near the ICU. I

JAYSON"How's Grandpa?" Loren asked, worried. The doctor said she could return home today, but I don't want her to leave the hospital too soon. I want her to stay here for at least a week. I'm worried some complications will occur if she goes home more quickly. "Still the same. Nothing changes. " I replied sadly. "It's all that woman's fault. If she doesn't push me, this thing won't happen to Grandpa. She's a devil. She said, eyes now brimmed with tears."Don't cry. It's bad for you," I whispered, embracing Loren. "Don't worry. It'll ensure she receives the proper punishment for what she did. "Do that, babe. That girl is a swindler. If you let her roam freely, she might do it to others.""Don't worry, Jane already filed a case against her, and the authorities will issue an arrest warrant for her tomorrow." She nodded, smiling, but her eyes were still misty with tears. "Let's get married on Thursday," I whispered. She looked at me and nodded, smiling. "Let's just do a civil wedding
